  • Bargaining Inequality -(6.6.2021)
    Draft – please do not circulate or cite without permission of the author BARGAINING INEQUALITY: EMPLOYEE GOLDEN HANDCUFFS AND ASYMMETRIC INFORMATION Anat Alon-Beck* Assistant Professor Case Western Reserve University School of Law ABSTRACT The problem of inaccurate unicorn firm valuation is very severe and well documented in the finance literature. Unicorn employees cannot value their equity grants, including stock, because they do not have access to fair market valuation or financial statements and, in many cases, are denied access to such reports, even if they ask for them. Startup founders, investors, and their lawyers have systematically abused equity award information asymmetry to their benefit. This Article sheds light on the latest practice that compels employees to waive their inspection rights as stockholders under Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) Section 220 as a condition to receiving stock options from the company. DGCL Section 220 provides protection to stockholders by allowing them to exercise their ownership rights and inspect the books and records of a Delaware corporation. In Delaware, this ownership right cannot be eliminated or limited by a provision in a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws. But there is ambiguity in the case law with regards to the ability to eliminate this right via private ordering. Unicorn employees—who are not yet stockholders— are now regularly coerced to waive this inspection right by entering into a contract with the corporation, in the form of a stock option agreement. As a result, their employers, who are unicorn fiduciaries, get the benefit of operating without oversigh from minority common stockholders - their employees.

  • Yale Law School Commencement Remarks May 22, 2006 Harold
    Yale Law School Commencement Remarks May 22, 2006 Harold Hongju Koh Dean, Yale Law School Distinguished Guests, Faculty Colleagues, Families, Friends, and Members of the Graduating Class: Welcome, all of you, to the Yale Law School’s 2006 Commencement Exercises. We gather here this afternoon to celebrate an institution, to graduate a class, and to renew a solemn commitment. The institution is the Yale Law School, the class is the remarkable Class of 2006, the commitment is to a tradition of humanity and excellence in the study of law that dates back several centuries. Although this is Yale University’s 305th Graduation, we cannot say with precision exactly what number Yale Law School graduation we celebrate today. But the graduating class that will march before you in a few moments represents at least the 192nd group of law students to receive their legal education at Yale. If you are keeping track, that was three years before Chief Justice Isaac Parker of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts founded a law school north of here at Harvard in 1817, and 32 years before a law school was founded at Princeton, which then closed just six years later. The lineal ancestor of the Yale Law School was the Litchfield Law School, founded some 50 miles northwest of here, which between 1780 and 1830, trained about 1000 lawyers for the new American republic. Around 1800, more than 200 years ago, a Yale college graduate named Seth Staples began taking on apprentices here in his New Haven office, including two students, Samuel Hitchcock and David Daggett, with whom he began the New Haven law school that eventually became the law school of Yale University.

While Division enforcement attorneys are responsible for investigating whether violations of the Ohio Securities Act have occurred, the primary concern of investors usually is the recoupment of their funds. The Ohio Securities Act grants the Division the ability to seek civil restitution under Ohio Revised Code (“R.C.”) §1707.261 if a court of common pleas has issued an injunction.1 If criminal convictions for violations of the Ohio Securities Act are obtained, restitution may also be ordered.2 However, the Division is not currently able to order restitution outside of administrative consent orders.3 The victims of such violations may bring individual or class civil actions for violations under R.C. Chapter 17.4 Once restitution or judgement orders are issued against a person who violates the Ohio Securities Act, a violator of the Ohio Securities Act may consider filing for bankruptcy in an attempt to avoid paying restitution. Fortunately, in the wake of numerous financial frauds in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Congress expanded the debts statutorily excepted from discharge under 11 U.S.C §523 to included

  • Phd Thesis Noel Brown
    1 Hollywood, the family audience and the family film, 1930-2010 Noel Brown Thesis submitted towards the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics, Newcastle University. June 2010 2 Abstract This thesis is the first in-depth, historical study of Hollywood’s relationship with the ‘family audience’ and ‘family film’. Since the 1970s, Hollywood family films have been the most lucrative screen entertainments in the world, and despite their relatively- unexplored status in academic film criticism and history, I will argue that the format is centrally important in understanding mainstream Hollywood cinema. How have ‘family films’ become so globally dominant? One answer is that Hollywood’s international power facilitates the global proliferation of its products, but this explanation, in isolation, is insufficient. I will argue that Hollywood family films are designed to transcend normative barriers of age, gender, race, culture and even taste; they target the widest possible audiences to maximise commercial returns, trying to please as many people, and offend as few, as possible. This they achieve through a combination of ideological populism, emotional stimulation, impressive spectacle, and the calculated minimisation of potentially objectionable elements, such as sex, violence, and excessive socio-cultural specificity. Initially, the audience for family films was predominantly domestic, but with the increasing spending power of international audiences, family films are now formulated on the belief that no market is inaccessible. For this reason, they are inextricably linked with Hollywood – the only film industry in the world with the resources and distribution capacity to address a truly global mass audience.
