Course overview
In this comprehensive 3-minute video, we'll explore the Put Up or Shut Up (PUSU) provision, a critical timing mechanism in mergers and acquisitions. We'll begin by examining how this provision protects target companies from prolonged bid uncertainty by requiring potential buyers to either make a firm offer within a specified timeframe or step away from the acquisition.
Through a practical example of a recent technology sector merger, we'll demonstrate how PUSU deadlines create market stability and prevent share price volatility. The video concludes by highlighting key considerations for both bidders and target companies when navigating PUSU provisions, ensuring viewers gain actionable insights for their M&A strategy. Perfect for corporate development professionals, investment bankers, and business law students looking to deepen their understanding of M&A deal mechanics.

Who should watch this playlist?
This video is essential viewing for corporate development teams, M&A lawyers, and investment banking professionals who regularly structure and negotiate acquisition deals. It's particularly valuable for junior team members who need to understand how protective provisions safeguard target companies during the sensitive phases of deal negotiations. While the concepts are relevant to anyone involved in M&A transactions, the video's focused treatment of PUSU deadlines will be most immediately applicable to professionals working in jurisdictions like the UK where these provisions are commonly employed in public company acquisitions.
