[QUOTE="Seven, post: 128850, member: 22850"] Q1: A key reason Digion is interested in acquiring Immersive is the company's co-founders Leon Alexander and Maria May's extensive experience hosting game servers. As reported by Digion's CEO, Elena Alyson, Immersive was also extremely popular with game developers. Digion might be considering the acquisition of Immersive as a strategy for expanding its own business and improving its offerings in the field of distributed simulation software for video games and corporate use. Q2: As a precaution against Tristan poaching Digion employees, Elena may consider including a non-solicitation clause in Tristan's employment contract or other relevant agreement as part of the conditions precedent. This clause could prohibit Tristan from attempting to recruit or hire Digion employees. The scope and duration of the non-solicitation clause should be carefully considered in order to ensure that it is reasonable and does not impose undue restrictions on Tristan's ability to work or do business. The company should also consider whether additional measures are necessary to protect Digion's workforce and prevent its valuable employees from leaving in favour of its competitors. For example, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements can be implemented, retention efforts can be strengthened, and clear policies and procedures should be implemented for resolving potential conflicts of interest. Q3: Clause 5 of Document 3 outlines the conditions that must be met in order for the Proposed Acquisition of Immersive by Digion to proceed. The conditions set out in Clause 5 are intended to ensure that the Proposed Acquisition is viable and in the best interests of both parties. Q4: The seller's liability under the warranties and indemnities provided in Clause 7 of Document 3 could potentially be limited by liability caps. For example, a de minimis clause could be used to exclude small or insignificant damages or liabilities from the scope of the warranties and indemnities, whereas a de maximus clause could be used to limit the seller's potential exposure to large or disproportionate damages or liabilities. A decision on whether to include these kinds of clauses would depend upon the specific circumstances of the proposed acquisition and the degree of risk and liability that the parties are willing to accept. Q5: In the Proposed Acquisition, the exclusive jurisdiction clause stipulates that legal disputes will be decided by the English courts. These courts are renowned for their expertise in commercial law and predictability. Moreover, judgments rendered by the English courts are generally recognised and enforceable in other countries, which may facilitate Digion's ability to enforce judgments if litigation arises. It also provides Digion with greater legal certainty and protection if disputes arise. [/QUOTE]
