John Allison Biography :

John is a partner in the business law department. He has represented clients in a variety of complex transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures.

John has experience handling international matters in over 30 foreign countries that involved issues relating to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, U.S. export control laws, antiboycott laws, bank guarantees, international treaties and conventions, incoterms, dealer protection laws, currency exchange controls, and other matters impacting cross-border transactions. He is also exclusive counsel for a Fortune 100 company for Hart-Scott analysis and pre-merger notification filings with the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice.

Representative Matters

Represented a U.S. company in the development and construction of a large commercial free trade zone facility from a "greenfield" site in the Caribbean. This $290 million project involved establishing a series of joint ventures with a consortium of local business leaders, limited recourse project financing, shareholders agreements (for multiple classes of stock), design/build and turnkey contract with a French construction consortium, technology licenses, and management and operations agreements.

Represented a public company in its acquisition of a company in the construction industry. The acquisition involved the concurrent spin-off from the acquired company of two of its three divisions to an investor group composed of certain of the shareholders of the acquired company. The spin-off required both senior, bridge financing, and subordinated financing.
