So some rogue purchasing agent could've signed a contract during escrow and prior to the merger to buy my special lolipops for a million dollars apiece, as fast as a I could produce them for the next 100 years - and Rock Tenn would have to honor that...lol
There would be a clause in the purchasing contract that would speak directly to this.
That's not how the law works. I suggest you call RKT and confirm if all contracts magically disappear from SSCC or not. Contract law doesn't allow for buyouts to null anything. RKT assumed all contracts and liabilities of SSCC.
