Corp is a duly registered and publicly traded corporation. It consistently reports annual earnings per share and pays shareholder dividends that far exceed those typically reported by like businesses in Corp’s industry. Cobb is the chairperson of Corp’s board of directors. At a social gathering Cobb was approached by Olivia who told Cobb that she intended to make a tender offer to take over Corp. Cobb was initially non-committal but listened to her pitch. Corp’s shares were selling on the exchanges for $50 per share. Olivia stated she might be willing to go as high as $100 per share in her offer to Corp’s shareholders. Cobb then requested and subsequently received a letter of intent. Before discussing Olivia’s offer with Corp’s board of directors, Cobb instructed his stockbroker to acquire as much Corp stock for Cobb’s account as possible “without setting off alarms.” The stockbroker immediately did as instructed. Over the next two weeks, Cobb’s portfolio holdings of Corp stock grew from 1,000 to 25,000 shares. Three weeks after receiving Olivia’s offer, and before meeting with the Corp board of directors, Cobb met with Sue, a realtor who handled property acquisitions for Corp. Cobb asked Sue to make a full-price offer on a beachfront property he had been eyeing for some time. Sue asked, “What happened, did you win the lottery?” Cobb replied, “I’ve just been investing wisely and now I’m ready to buy that property.” At the board meeting, Cobb disclosed Olivia’s letter of intent and discussion ensued about a response. Cobb informed the board that Olivia had mentioned going as high as $100 per share and the board was in favor of accepting the offer. With Cobb’s passionate urging the board countered at $120 per share and Olivia raised her offer to $110 per share and the board unanimously approved and voted to recommend the tender offer to the Corp shareholders. After the takeover closed and all of Corp’s shareholders received their money, Cobb deposited $2.75 million into escrow to buy the beachfront property – the sum total he had received from the takeover for his 25,000 shares. Did Cobb violate Rule 10b5? Did Sue have tippee liability under Rule 10b5? Discuss fully.

ABC, Inc. is a publicly held corporation. While its stock price has remained fairly constant for several years, shareholder dividends have ranged from as low as pennies per share to as much as $10 per share. Investment analysts and some ABC stockholders attribute the dividend downturns to poor corporate governance on the part of the officers and directors of ABC. Disgruntled shareholders have mounted unsuccessful efforts to remove several directors from the board at 7 of the last 9 annual shareholder meetings, due to flawed marketing campaigns by ABC and failed investments made by the company that resulted in losses and large charge-offs and write-downs on ABC’s financial statements. Sharkey is the CEO of XYZ, Inc., ABC’s largest market competitor. On XYZ’s behalf, Sharkey offered to take out ABC’s stockholders for $12.50 per share at a time when ABC’s stock was selling for $10 on the stock exchanges. ABC’s board received Sharkey’s written offer for $12.50 per share plus a “no shop” provision prohibiting the ABC board from seeking competitive bids. The ABC board instructed its outside auditors and corporate counsel to render opinions on value and fairness, respectively. One-half of the ABC board informally to strategize opposition to the offer. Members of the remaining half of the board met in pairs or small groups and discussed how to counter the expected opposition from the directors opposing the takeover. The board then convened all members to discuss the offer and the generally favorable opinions from the counsel and auditors. A straw poll then revealed that, notwithstanding the professional opinions, the board was evenly split and could not arrive at a decision or consensus regarding recommendations to the shareholders. Those opposed were unconvinced that $12.50 included a sufficient and fair price, the “no shop” provision was a non-starter and would be a dereliction of fiduciary duties, and the SEC was likely to deny approval of the takeover for anti-trust reasons. The opposing directors maintained that if the board responded at all to the offer, the response must include a golden parachute provision requiring a $5M severance package to be paid to all ABC directors who were not invited to serve on the XYZ board after the takeover closed. Those in favor of the offer pointed out that the premium represented 25% of the market price of the shares and that shareholder disgruntlement with existing corporate governance ought to be addressed by putting the offer up for a shareholder vote, untainted by the proposed poison pill. The ABC board has retained you to provide an objective opinion on the nature and extent of the fiduciary duties applicable to the directors in this situation. No particular formatting is required but you must address the duties in play fully and in light of the facts of the case arising at a reasonable conclusion about appropriate action to be taken by the board.
