FAQ
What is a Drag-Along right?
It allows majority shareholders to force minority shareholders to join in the sale of the company, preventing holdouts.
What is a Right of First Refusal (ROFR)?
It requires a shareholder who wants to sell their stock to offer it to the company or other founders first, keeping outsiders away.
Is this suitable for outside investors (Angel/VC)?
Yes, the Standard and Premium packages include the specific rights (Pro-Rata, Information) that sophisticated investors require.
Why don't you offer phone calls?
As a legal professional, I prioritize accuracy and written records. Fiverr text messaging is the most secure and efficient way to handle contract details.
Will this agreement hold up in my state?
Yes, I draft these agreements in accordance with US corporate law standards, tailored to your specific state of incorporation (e.g., Delaware).
