Investors establish that certain conditions must be met before the first tranche of the investment can be closed. These conditions may include: Guarantees are statements from guarantors, who are usually the founders and the company that certain statements regarding the company are true and correct at the time of completion. Although the investors have performed due diligence for the business and, under the common law, they would have the right to sue the founders for misrepresentation if the information provided was inaccurate, investors will prefer that such statements be explicitly included in the contract. Each company has statutes – which often include the “model articles” of the Corporate Act (with small amendments), which are usually adopted by default when they are created. The statutes can be akin to a “club constitution” – which occasionally contains a binding agreement between the company and the shareholders. Such a document can be quite impenetrable for a layman – and it is above all for this reason that some early investments do not prepare the specially developed statutes. It is often necessary for management, when using an institutional investor, to establish management accounts, audited accounts and financial models and budgets for future years that they must provide to investors before certain maturities. This can be a burden on management. In addition, investors may require them to be able to access the company`s accounts for inspection upon request.

As a result, an investor`s starting position is usually to resist the founders, who are legal advisors on investment documents – especially because it is the investor`s money that should pay the legal fees directly or indirectly. However, as a founder, you should try to convince the investor that such an attitude is counterproductive and that it is much better for you to get a complete understanding of the details of the investment documentation you want to grasp, if you want to create a strong and continuous relationship between you. It doesn`t look so bad. In fact, it may sound like a lot – the start-up gets to keep investors` money, but doesn`t it have to pay the finder? That`s cute! When you hear about a company that sells for about $10 million, most people think that the founders are now multimillionaires. Whether this is true or not does not depend sufficiently on how the liquidation clause was negotiated with outside investors. 5. Miscellaneous.
