Raising capital for your project, firm or organization always requires due diligence document review so that investors can understand the risk and rewards associated with their decision to invest. The right virtual data room can help streamline this process, while keeping documents secure. ShareVault is ideally suited for presenting investor documents for due diligence, providing significant advantages when compared to distributing investor materals using email, CDs/DVDs, or FTP/filesharing sites:

Organize your investor materials in a structured hierarchy for a professional presentation of your firm
By organizing your documents according to a well-structured due diligence list, you can put your company in the best possible light, and streamline the review process. Only ShareVault allows you to organize your documents using tags, rather than folders. Frequently, the same file needs to be placed in multiple locations in the due diligence index. With ShareVault, just apply multiple tags to the document. No other data room provider offers this simple yet powerful capability:

• No need to replicate files in multiple locations
• No paying for additional pages in replicated documents
• No need to combine document access statistics for multiple instances of the same file

Secure your valuable information without slowing down document access
ShareVault automatically converts your documents to an encrypted PDF format that provides the industry standard document viewing experience, including continuous scrolling and high-speed rendering. Some competing VDRs, because they a’re based on the dated TIFF document standard, will slow down document review due to sluggish page rendering, lack of continuous scrolling and inability to view more than one page at a time. The PDF encryption used by ShareVault allows you to revoke access to any document at any time, even if the document has already been downloaded. Sharevault also provides you with the ability to apply additional security attributes, including inhibiting preventing document download, prohibiting preventing printing, applying secure dynamic watermarks, identifying the user, and blocking screenshots.

Accelerate the due diligence phase
ShareVault supports PDF streaming, so that documents open to the first page instantly, even if there are many thousands of pages. Most competing virtual data rooms providers suggest that you break up large documents into smaller volumes so they’ll load quickly, but with ShareVault, you can keep document review moving fast without getting bogged-down with large documents.

Respond efficiently and securely to questions from investors
The easy-to-use ShareVault Q&A module further streamlines the due diligence process by optimizing the response to questions from your potential investors. Questions can be asked privately from right within the data room, so that you and your team can easily respond from the centralized Q&A module. With the optional Q&A workflow feature, questions can be routed to the appropriate expert, and then back to the Q&A moderator for approval before posting the final response. You can also change the privacy level on each question so that other users can refer to questions that you have already answered.

ShareVault automatically converts your documents to an encrypted PDF format that provides the industry standard document viewing experience, including continuous scrolling and high-speed rendering. Some competing VDRs, because they use the dated TIFF document standard, will slow down document review due to sluggish page rendering, lack of continuous scrolling and inability to view more than one page at a time. The PDF document encryption used by ShareVault allows you to revoke access to any document at any time, even if the document has been downloaded. Sharevault also provides you with the ability to apply additional security attributes, including inhibiting document download, preventing printing, applying secure dynamic watermarks, identifying the user, and blocking screenshots.

ShareVault supports PDF streaming, so that documents open to the first page instantly, even if there are many thousands of pages.

The recent global economic crisis has impacted companies of all sizes and generated a large increase in corporate restructuring and bankruptcy transactions including Chapter 11 reorganization and Chapter 7 liquidation. Court supervised bankruptcy places stringent requirements on company activities and information sharing with creditors, bond holders, banks, auditors, lawyers, consultants, trustees, workout management and other stakeholder parties. Full disclosure of material documents representing the current state of the company and ongoing updates is critical during the bankruptcy process. The right data room is essential for document review by debtor in possession investors, creditor and bondholder committees, preparing the reorganization plan, completing court approved Section 363 asset sales, facilitating the sale of claims or disposition of assets in a court approved Chapter 7 liquidation.
