In addition to recapping relevant SEC guidance, stock exchange listing requirements, state law and organizational document considerations, and proxy advisor and major institutional investor positions on virtual meetings, Wilson Sonsini's "COVID-19 Update: SEC Guidance and Practical Considerations for Virtual Annual Meetings," raises numerous key practical considerations - including important meeting logistics such as attendance, access and participation and associated disclosure, recording and archiving; Reg. FD; rules of meeting conduct; annual meeting scripts and more -  that will help companies that are conducting a virtual-only or hybrid meeting for the first time ensure they have dotted all of the "i's" and crossed the "t's" and are otherwise prepared to facilitate a smooth and effective meeting. See sample rules of conduct, meeting scripts and other relevant resources on our Virtual Meetings and Annual Meeting pages.
