With unsecured loans from banks still most out of reach of most companies because of the ongoing squeeze in lending, companies often turn to loans based on their inventory, accounts receivable or capital equipment to fund ongoing operations or expansion. Asset-based loans are a form of secured credit under UCC Article 9 and must conform with a thicket of statutory requirements. Also, the practical, negotiated terms of the loans have changed in the last several years in response to very tight credit conditions. This program will provide you with a framework for structuring asset-based loans, a guide to the extensive documentation needed to effectuate a loan, and common traps for borrowers and lenders. \n \nDay 1: December 11, 2012:\n \n·         Legal & practical framework for structuring and drafting the documentation for an asset-based loan\n·         How practical terms for asset-based loans has changed in recent years\n·         Types of loans – revolving, term, and capital expenditure structures – and how each is used\n·         Loans based on inventory, accounts receivable, capital equipment and intellectual property\n·         Common traps for borrowers and lenders in structuring, negotiating and drafting asset-based loans\n\n \nAbout the Speaker\n \nEdwin E.
