| Abstract: | The Green Shoe is properly described as the underwriters' overallotment option, which is part of the underwriting agreement between a corporation which offers securities (usually equity, although a Green Shoe is often applied to convertible debt) and the securities firms that introduce them into the financial markets. The Green Shoe has become a fixed part of the process of raising equity capital. Chief financial and executive officers can use the Green Shoe to use the underwriting process to best advantage and also to accomodate the need for liquidity of locked-in shareholders. |
