On October 28, Governor Northam announced that the Rebuild VA Grant Fund program would be expanding eligibility criteria and grant money amount to assist small businesses and nonprofits in navigating the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rebuild VA launched in August with $70 million from the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. An additional $30 million is being directed to support the expansion of the program. Businesses with less than $10 million in gross revenue or fewer than 250 employees will be eligible under the new criteria, and the maximum grant award will increase from $10,000 to $100,000.

Given the unprecedented economic turmoil caused by COVID-19, there has been a substantial uptick in distressed asset transactions (i.e. the sale of something well below its traditional market value). We have been surprised by the number of these transactions that have lacked traditional due diligence and contingency planning. Seemingly, parties have been willing to ignore traditional risks and are increasingly motivated by fear or greed. However, distressed asset transactions typically have heightened risks associated with them, which justify additional planning from a legal perspective, not less.
