5297 Energy Finance Transactions - WHITE,H-

Professor(s): Hunter White (ADJUNCT)

Credits: 2

Course Areas: Energy, Natural Resources and Environmental Law 

Time: 8:30a-10:30a  T  Location:  

Course Outline: The objectives of this course include exposing law students to a variety of transactional structures and documentation which they may see in an energy finance transaction, including energy M&A transactions and general finance transactions and documents. We will focus on the how and why these transactions are structured the way they are, and we will review and analyze certain sample provisions of each. The course will be of particular interest to any student wanting to pursue a career focusing on energy, general corporate M&A or finance, as many of the issues, concepts and provisions we will review will be common to all of these areas.

Course Notes: (Face-to-Face)  The UH registration system instruction mode for this course is listed in parenthesis. For this instruction mode, instructors and students are expected to normally be physically present in the classroom. If the course has a final examination, it will be in a classroom requiring your physical presence. Other assessment, such as a mid term exam, may also be in a classroom. Whether this instructor will offer “remote presence” (starting a zoom meeting from the podium computer to enable student remote access on an occasional basis) for part or all of the semester is not known, but students should not rely on an expectation that remote presence will be available.
