Description
LLC operating agreements may be the most commonly document drafted, reviewed and negotiated by transactional counsel. These documents define the governance, information and liquidation rights of members, allocate economic rewards, sometimes establish restrictions on members or their interests, and can assign or alleviate liability. The tax provisions, too, are highly complex, defining allocations of tax attributes and rights to cash and property distributions.
Fiduciary duties may also be modified in a way that is not possible in other types of entities.
This program provides a practical guide to drafting the most important provisions of LLC operating agreements.
