CSC® Media

New titles from CSC® Media: The 2010 Edition of The Directors’ Handbook and the Spring 2010 Edition of Delaware Laws Governing Business Entities, Volumes 1 and 2.

CSC® Media, in collaboration with LexisNexis® Matthew Bender®, is pleased to announce the March release of the Spring 2010 Edition of Delaware Laws Governing Business Entities, Volumes 1 and 2 and the 2010 Edition of The Directors’ Handbook.

Delaware Laws Governing Business Entities, Spring 2010

The Spring 2010 Edition of Delaware Laws Governing Business Entities, Volumes 1 and 2 is updated through Chapter 214 of the 145th Session of the Delaware General Assembly, including changes to the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, the LLC Act, and the General Corporation Law. The new edition also contains new and amended Chancery Court Rules through February 1, 2010, including new rules 96 to 98 governing arbitration proceedings for business disputes pursuant to 10 Del. C. § 349.

The Spring 2010 Edition contains over 100 new case annotations from Delaware courts and from courts in other state and federal jurisdictions that apply Delaware business entity law. We have also provided the full text of five key Delaware opinions, including recent cases NACCO Industries, In re Dow Chemical, and Airborne Health.

There are in-depth legal analyses from CSC Media’s Senior Legal Advisors, as well as a Table of Sections Affected, blacklined amendments, a Table of New Annotations, and an amounts payable section.

Subscribers of the Spring and Fall Editions also get access to The Delaware Business Entity Law Website at no extra cost. The website provides online access to the updated content found in Volumes 1 and 2 of Delaware Laws Governing Business Entities, as well as links to the full-text opinions of the annotations cited, annotated forms for Delaware business transactions, sample bylaws and operating agreements.

The Directors’ Handbook

The Directors’ Handbook is one of today’s leading guides to corporate governance. In this new 2010 Edition, author Thomas J. Dougherty has written a compelling new Foreword that examines the “reform” initiatives that have come in the wake of the financial and regulatory crises of 2008-2009 and that now “threaten to undermine the fundamentals of director oversight in 2010 and beyond.” Other important updates include a discussion of the unforeseen consequences of SOX reforms on executive compensation, as well as new information about corporate governance abroad. All sections have been reviewed and updated to reflect changes in the applicable rules and regulations.

The Directors’ Handbook offers directors insight on how to best handle hostile takeover attempts and proxy battles, and offers analysis of such vital issues as creating an audit committee charter, crisis management, and director and officer insurance. You will find the most recent information about majority (rather than plurality) voting for directors; staggered board repeals; best practices for handling restatement crises; and the political economy of corporations. There is a chapter that addresses the role of the corporate secretary, as well as a CD-ROM containing the key cases and legislation that form the basis for corporate governance here and abroad.

Illinois Laws Governing Business Entities

Another recent release is the 2010 Edition of Illinois Laws Governing Business Entities. This resource is the most comprehensive collection of annotated Illinois business entity statutes available.

The 2010 Edition is updated through Public Act 96-857 and features over 50 statutory changes. Notable changes from the 2009 legislative session include: Establishment of the low-profit limited liability company (or L3C); wide-ranging amendments to the General Not for Profit Corporation Act; and the creation of the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act.

Coverage of recent case law includes 35 new case annotations from state and federal court decisions and five full- text cases, including Denmar Builders (piercing the corporate veil of an LLC) and Brynwood evaluation of dissenting shareholder’s shares).

The companion CD-ROM contains the full text of the selected cases, as well as over 100 fillable PDF forms for incorporation/formation, qualification, mergers, dissolution, and name reservation for all entity types in Illinois.
