However, as you can see, the inventors' <\/span><b>shareholders' agreement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> can establish rules that may alter this assumption.

The appointed person is in charge of the entire operation of the company and is the only individual with authority over bank accounts and other critical aspects. This governance model is typically used when all partners who hold ownership in the company have full trust in the administrator. It\u2019s important to understand that the administrator does not necessarily have to be the founder or inventor.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Do you remember the movie about <\/span><b>Steve Jobs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> when the investors removed him from the company\u2019s leadership?<\/span><b> Steve Jobs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> was still a shareholder of Apple, but he could no longer manage the company.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Joint Administrators:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In our opinion, this governance model is not very efficient. By definition, individuals who serve as joint administrators share all rights and responsibilities. The main limitation we see is the high level of dependency it creates for the company\u2019s daily operations. Imagine needing the presence of all joint administrators just to open a bank account. However, in situations where there is a lack of trust, this may be the most effective governance system.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><b>Board of Directors:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Without a doubt, this is the most common governance structure in <\/span><b>inventor-led companies<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. It is a slightly more complex structure that, by design, includes at least one Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board, a Secretary, and may include board members with voting rights in the company\u2019s most important decisions. It is a flexible model, as the CEO can handle the company\u2019s day-to-day operations, while major decisions must be approved by the board.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is true that we are required to define the governance system that prevails in the company and to identify its key members and their roles. That\u2019s right\u2014we have this obligation with public authorities. If a problem arises, they will know who to contact.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The governing body has clear responsibilities defined by law. So, why talk about governance within the framework of the shareholders' agreement?<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Well, within the shareholders' agreement, we can customize the scope and functioning of the governance structure\u2014without violating legal regulations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One very relevant point\u2014at least according to our experience\u2014has to do with the system used to determine the company\u2019s value at any given time, the definition of objectives, budgets, and so on.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The topic of valuation methods and systems for updating company value could easily be the subject of its own post\u2014or even an entire book.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As you may have read earlier, the shareholders' agreement defines critical situations related to the buying and selling of company ownership\u2014such as tag-along and drag-along clauses.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In any of these circumstances, the most important aspect is to define the method for updating the company\u2019s value, as well as the situations that arise from or are related to that value.

Their monthly compensation is often far from what they expect as a return on their invention. On the other hand, investors are highly concerned with maintaining rights that allow them to limit actions related to the buying and selling of company ownership.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let\u2019s use another scenario involving our friend Juan.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let\u2019s imagine that Juan has invented a<\/span><b> special device for sanitizing razor blades<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. A <\/span><b>unique product on the market<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, protected by a patent and commercialized through a company for which he has raised funding from private investors, using the patent rights to sell the product.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Well, despite the growth of Juan\u2019s company during the first three years, his energy has begun to wear down.

With the entry of this new partner, the investors would be diluted, and they suspect that the company\u2019s valuation\u2014which ultimately defines the profitability of their ownership stake\u2014may not grow sufficiently as a result of the operation. Let\u2019s imagine that the investors believe the entry of this new partner would cause the company to be perceived in the market as \u201cthe little sibling of...\u201d and, as a result, other major players in the industry would likely rule out future business opportunities.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This scenario may be very convenient for Juan, but it doesn\u2019t necessarily benefit the other partners. For this reason, limitation clauses are quite common in this type of <\/span><b>inventors' shareholders' agreements<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7dfc330 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7dfc330\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Dividend distribution rules or limitations<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2dbce4b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2dbce4b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Without a doubt, limitations on dividend distribution are often a source of conflict or dissatisfaction. That\u2019s why it is so important to address this matter from the very beginning.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let\u2019s imagine that Juan\u2019s company is generating very attractive profits. Juan has built up a significant amount of cash thanks to his excellent management. However, let\u2019s not forget that Juan holds 51% ownership in this example. Typically, founders retain the majority of ownership for a long time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to standard dividend distribution rules, the amount of money to be distributed would be defined, and each partner would receive a sum based on their ownership percentage.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Juan will be very happy\u2014he\u2019ll receive the largest share of the distribution. On the other hand, the investors might feel that their portion does not truly compensate for the risk they\u2019ve taken with their investment. Therefore, they may prefer that the available cash be used to accelerate growth, launch new versions of the product, and so on.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Investors understand that Juan should earn more\u2014that\u2019s not the issue. The real concern is that distributing dividends can create a significant obstacle to the growth of the <\/span><b>company\u2019s value<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which is ultimately the figure that determines the return for the investors, including Juan as part of the ownership.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are other important elements within the inventors' shareholders' agreement\u2014clauses that help balance power and real opportunities for founders and entrepreneurs. Not all shareholders' agreements should be the same; they must be customized according to each specific situation, the types of partners involved, and their respective interests.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you\u2019d like to learn more about this topic, or if you prefer personalized guidance, we\u2019d be happy to help.
