This presentation takes participants on a journey of “deconstructing” the real meaning of equity, inclusivity, and diversity. Participants will discover facts and gain insights to help us shift from learning and exploring to doing. The session is designed to inspire, intrigue, and energize us during a complex time in history. We will explore everything from definitions, history, power bases, imposter syndrome, and even address “diversity fatigue” – a condition that we all have at some point or another.

• Dr. Dwinita Mosby Tyler, The Equity Project, LLC, Chief Catalyst and Founder

Presentation Materials

Beginning with the Sabine decision in 2016, a number of bankruptcy courts throughout the country have issued opinions in E&P bankruptcies addressing whether property dedication provisions in midstream contracts create real property covenants that cannot be rejected under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. The consequences that flow from such decisions are important not just in the context of the various producer bankruptcies but also, going forward, as producers and midstream companies consider how to structure future midstream contracts in light of these decisions. Join us for a discussion of the status of the current case law as well as ways that future contracts may be structured to provide greater certainty for all parties involved.
