Partner Rights
For most of these arrangements i will be ceding control of day to day over to the other investor and just checking in from time to time to see how things are running and if there is further investment needed or other things i can do to help the business grow.
Some i may have a more vested interest in its running but i will make that fairly clear in those cases. But in all cases i retain the Right of Vote in the business operation just may not use it that often.
But in the case of more than 1 investment partner my right is proportional my investment amount. But the person who gets more votes will be the Director of the Business.
Exit clause
If all sides wish to end the arrangement then a decision of what happens with the company and its assets is then decided.
First option will go to those with stake in the company to buy out the other partners for reasonable value of the assets
if none of the partners can buy it then we seek next options
If all partners want to split up the assets by proportion we can do it this way
If partners want to be bought out i can look on option of buying the business whole or if i am unable to put it up for public sale.
Side Benefits
As i am a mayor i will most likely have need of many companies services so i would be more inclined to have a prefered vendor deal with a company i am partnered with.
As you can tell there will be limits at times to when i could increase investment and how many investments i can do but i will try and work with those of you interested.
