C Corp Operating Agreement

"I need a C Corp Operating Agreement to establish a technology startup with three co-founders, where two will be active directors and one will be a silent investor, with specific provisions for future funding rounds and anti-dilution protection."

Document background

The C Corp Operating Agreement is typically used in the United States, not in England and Wales where different corporate structures exist. Under English law, companies use Articles of Association and Shareholders' Agreements instead. These documents establish the framework for company governance, including share structures, management responsibilities, decision-making processes, and shareholder rights. They are essential for both newly formed companies and existing entities requiring updated governance structures.

Suggested Sections

1. Parties: Identification of the company and its shareholders

2. Background: Context and purpose of the company formation

3. Definitions: Key terms used throughout the document

4. Share Capital: Structure and classes of shares, including authorized and issued share capital

5. Directors and Management: Powers, duties, appointment and removal of directors, and management structure

6. Shareholders' Rights: Voting rights, procedures, and shareholder meetings

7. Transfer of Shares: Procedures and restrictions for share transfers

Optional Sections

1. Tag-Along Rights: Minority shareholder protection provisions allowing them to join in the sale of shares

2. Drag-Along Rights: Majority shareholder provisions allowing them to force minority shareholders to join in a sale

3. Non-Compete Provisions: Restrictions on competitive activities by shareholders and key personnel

Suggested Schedules

1. Schedule 1 - Initial Shareholders: List of founding shareholders and their respective shareholdings

2. Schedule 2 - Share Capital Structure: Detailed breakdown of share classes and associated rights

3. Schedule 3 - Reserved Matters: List of decisions requiring special majority or unanimous approval
