Jeffrey Rothschild was quoted in an April 29 article published by Compliance Week regarding the utilization of the material adverse change clause (MAC clause) during the global credit crunch in order to allow potential acquirers to walk away from deals. Mr. Rothschild commented that negotiating MACs is perhaps [one of] the most contentious and time consuming part of merger talks. "A certainty in life is that people won't agree on [the definition of] MAC," he said.
