      <title>Momentum picking up in secondary market too</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/408/&quot; title=&quot;Momentum picking up in secondary market too&quot; &gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_4d69235b.jpg&quot; width=&quot;114&quot; height=&quot;86&quot; alt=&quot;Momentum picking up in secondary market too&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

"The secondary market as an institution was catalyzed by the problems in M&amp;A and the IPO market, but now what's driving momentum in the secondary market is that the markets are picking back up," said Adam Oliveri, managing director, private company market, SecondMarket. Oliveri expects the recent momentum in the IPO market to resume in January after a pause in December. And he predicts that of the potential social networking companies to make a public debut in 2010, Zynga Game Network Inc. is a safer bet than Facebook Inc., LinkedIn Corp. or Twitter Inc. (Subscribers to The Deal Pipeline may read more about Zynga's recent funding here and its newest backer Digital Sky Technologies here.) The Deal spoke with Oliveri on location at the NYSE Euronext as part of our on-going video series about IPOs&lt;p&gt; By &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/&quot; &gt;thedealvideo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

&#xD;
CIT Group's bankruptcy left many wondering about its impact on middle market lending. James Epstein, a partner with Pepper Hamilton LLP, says fallout was minimal for two reasons: The filing came just as the credit markets began to thaw, and there were plenty of lenders ready to step into the breach.&lt;p&gt; By &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/&quot; &gt;thedealvideo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

&#xD;
Victor Boyajian, the partner who heads up the venture capital group of New York law firm Sonnenschein Nath &amp; Rosenthal LLP, outlines what it will take for the IPO market to open up for VC-backed companies in this episode of our series on initial public offerings, shot on location at the New York Stock Exchange. Only 10 venture-backed companies have braved a public debut this year. Boyajian says companies must weigh coming out against shortening their runway in an era of less available capital from venture capital and private equity sources. - Mary Kathleen Flynn&lt;p&gt; By &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/&quot; &gt;thedealvideo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

&#xD;
Banks have spent nearly two years downsizing through workforce reductions and other cost-cutting measures. Now many are turning to technology to further drive efficiency and to help maintain service levels. That in turn is attracting a variety of investors to financial services technology, or fintech, firms with the tools to address those needs. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams &amp; Co., says Xerox Corp's (NYSE:XRX) acquisition of Affiliated Computer Systems Inc. (NYSE:ACS) and Dell Inc.'s (NASDAQ:DELL) of Perot Services Corp. (NYSE:PER) qualify as examples with both targets offering some fintech services. But Bistrong says middle market firms and private equity investors are also driving fintech transactions.

&#xD;
A CIT Group Inc.

However good companies will find alternative financing, he adds.

      <title>M&amp;A Outlook 2009: Foley's Rothman and Guardian's Turner on 2009 middle-market transactions</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/143/&quot; title=&quot;M&amp;A Outlook 2009: Foley's Rothman and Guardian's Turner on 2009 middle-market transactions&quot; &gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_7f0b5e18.jpg&quot; width=&quot;114&quot; height=&quot;86&quot; alt=&quot;M&amp;A Outlook 2009: Foley's Rothman and Guardian's Turner on 2009 middle-market transactions&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&#xD;
At the Deal's M&amp;A Outlook 2009 conference, dealmakers Jay Rothman, a partner at Foley &amp; Lardner LLP, and David Turner, managing director, head of private equity at Guardian, debated the M&amp;A outlook for the middle market in 2009.

Rothman argued that strategic acquirers are concerned about visibility while developing acquisition strategies for 2009. "I expect that in the regulatory climate there will be a paradigm shift, certainly on the regulatory side, that will impact even middle-market transactions," he said.

However, Turner said there are plenty of middle-market opportunities to be had. "If this next fourth recession is any harbinger of what happens in the past, these are going to be the years -- 2009 and 2010 -- to actually place capital," he stated.
