This year’s topics are:

- statutory signature requirements in the electronic age;
- clauses requiring a calculation or determination in accordance with GAAP;
- distinctions between guarantees and indemnities; and
- an update on good faith duties in contract law.
This year’s session is particularly notable as it will be Lisa’s final paper and presentation before retirement. Lisa will be joined by co-author Catherine Whitehead, a partner at Lawson Lundell, who will continue this valued tradition.
