Program Description:
Promissory notes are one of the basic tools of transactional practice. They are used to facilitate a range of business and real estate transactions, including M&A, real estate capital improvements and startup finance. But the continuing credit crunch is putting renewed importance on careful drafting and management of promissory notes. With a growing number challenges to the enforceability of promissory notes, particularly in real estate transactions, drafting effective notes is essential to the successful completion of a business or real estate transaction. This program will cover drafting the essential provisions of promissory notes to ensure enforceability, the application of UCC Article 5/Negotiable Instruments, transferability and creditor pledge issues, recent challenges to the enforceability of notes, and much more.
