 Consolidation in the O&P industry has resulted in many
 independent O&P firms facing decisions regarding potential
 buyout offers. This session will offer guidance to the

 of agreeing to a buyout.

 Topics to be covered include:

 · Consideration of long-term employment protection
          for owners;
 · Protection of existing staff employment opportunities
          after the buyout;
 · Implications for benefits offered and compensation
          packages given post buyout;
 · Business valuation and the dollar value of goodwill;
 · Analysis of no compete clauses; length of time and
          distance considerations; and
 · Stock options vs. cash purchase offers.
