Course Materials

Over the past few years, Nasdaq’s listing standards have been changed dramatically. Join us for our 1st annual webcast regarding what is happening at Nasdaq. During this webcast, senior Nasdaq Staffers will provide a wide range of practical guidance, from what are the latest corporate governance issues, like independent director interpretations and the shareholder approval rules for issuances of securities, to whom do you call to resolve an issue, and much more.

Join these experts:

• Arnold Golub, Associate General Counsel, Nasdaq’s Office of General Counsel
• Lanae Holbrook, Chief Counsel, Nasdaq’s Office of General Counsel/Hearings
• Suzanne Rothwell, Counsel, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP

Among the topics to be discussed are:

• What are the latest interpretations regarding handling of late filings? Regarding director independence issues? Regarding shareholder approval of security issuances?
• What rules has Nasdaq proposed and adopted recently, and which of them impact corporate governance? What is on the Nasdaq’s rulemaking agenda for this year?
• What should companies consider, and whom should they contact, when they have a material development from a Nasdaq listing standard perspective?
• How does one go about getting an interpretive question answered by the Nasdaq Staff? Where can you find the latest Nasdaq resources?
