VC Term Sheets – Dividends
by Scott Edward Walker on March 3rd, 2011Introduction
This post originally appeared as part of the “Ask the Attorney” series I am writing for VentureBeat. Below is a longer, more comprehensive version, which is part of my series on venture capital term sheets. Here are the issues I have addressed to date:
- common mistakes dealing with VC’s
- valuation
- liquidation preferences
- stock options
- exploding term sheets and no-shop provisions
- anti-dilution provisions
Today’s post relates to dividends and how to protect the company from over-reaching by the investors.
