Certificate of Good Standing

California

Asked on May 11, 2025

What is a Certificate of Good Standing?

I am a small business owner in the process of applying for a business loan and I have come across the term 'Certificate of Good Standing.' I am not sure what this certificate is, why it is necessary, and how I can obtain one for my business. Could you please explain what a Certificate of Good Standing is and its significance in the context of business operations and loan applications?

Robert P.

Answered Jun 24, 2025

A certificate of good standing is simply a due diligence item the lender will require showing your business entity is in "good standing" with the state in which the business was formed. "Good standing" means the business is operational and has paid its taxes (franchise taxes, etc) and is up to date on all annual fees, etc. To get the certificate, you can log on to your state of formation's secretary of state website (usually under the section entitled "business services") and you can purchase a certificate of good standing for a minimal fee.

S Corp

California

Asked on Jun 19, 2023

S corp and corporate restructuring?

I am looking to restructure my business, which is incorporated as an S corp. I am looking for advice on how to best restructure the business to ensure that all legal requirements are met and that the new structure is advantageous for the business. I am considering various options such as merging with another business, changing the ownership structure, or forming a new entity. I am seeking legal advice on the best approach and the potential implications of each option.

Chris J.

Answered Jul 21, 2023

Hi: Generally speaking, you have several options (many of which you've identified). 1. You can revoke S-Corp status (if you have a corporation and want C-Corp status). However, revocation won't be effective until the 2024 tax year. With that said, sometimes people inadvertently revoke S-Corp status by taking certain actions (which we can discuss). 2. You can create a new entity and structure it in the way you want (corporation, LLC, partnership, etc.). Then, you can wind down the S-Corp. 3. You can merge your existing S-Corp into an entity and have that entity survive and your S-Corp "merge out" and disappear. The approach that makes the most sense depends upon your business, the assets held by your S-Corp, and your objectives. Best regards, Chris Jackson

SAFE Note

California

Asked on Apr 18, 2025

What legal protections and risks are associated with investing in a company through a SAFE Note?

I am an individual interested in investing in a startup through a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE) Note, but I am unsure of the legal protections and risks involved. I would like to understand the potential advantages and disadvantages of this investment instrument, such as the rights I would have as an investor, the potential dilution of my ownership, and any potential risks or limitations that may arise in the future.

Tabetha H.

Answered May 13, 2025

SAFE Note Investment: Key Protections & Risks What is a SAFE Note? A SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) provides rights to future equity in a startup without setting a current share price. Unlike convertible notes, SAFEs aren't debt - they're contractual rights to equity upon triggering events. Key Protections: Conversion rights - Automatic conversion to equity during qualified financing rounds Valuation cap - Sets maximum valuation for calculating your ownership Discount rate - Provides reduced price compared to new investors (typically 10-30%) Pro-rata rights (if included) - Allows participation in future rounds Dissolution rights - Return of investment if company dissolves before conversion Major Risks: No maturity date - Can remain unconverted indefinitely No interest - Return depends solely on equity appreciation Dilution - Ownership can be significantly reduced in subsequent rounds Limited rights - No voting rights, minimal information access, no board representation Uncertain conversion - May never convert if company doesn't raise qualified financing Tax complexity - Unclear IRS guidance on certain aspects of SAFE taxation Terms to Negotiate: Lower valuation cap and higher discount rate MFN (Most Favored Nation) provision Pro-rata rights Conversion triggers and scenarios Information/reporting rights Risk Summary: SAFEs offer minimal investor protections compared to priced rounds. Your investment could remain illiquid indefinitely with no guaranteed return. Without pro-rata rights, your ownership can be significantly diluted in future rounds.

LLC

California

Asked on Oct 29, 2023

How is management structure set post-formation?

I am in the process of forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC) and I am looking to understand how the management structure will be set up post-formation. I have a business partner who will be a co-owner of the LLC and I am interested in learning the best way to ensure that both of our interests are represented in the management structure. Furthermore, I am interested in learning what type of documentation will be needed to ensure that our management structure is properly set up and in compliance with applicable laws.

Sarah S.

Answered Nov 3, 2023

When forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC) with a business partner, it's crucial to establish a clear and effective management structure to represent both of your interests. To do so, you should create an Operating Agreement, a customizable document that outlines the management structure, ownership percentages, and roles and responsibilities of each member. You can choose between a member-managed or manager-managed LLC, depending on your and your partner's roles and preferences. Defining ownership percentages, management responsibilities, voting rights, meeting procedures, and compliance with state laws is essential. Legal counsel should be consulted to draft the Operating Agreement and ensure compliance with specific state regulations, and it's important to regularly review and update the document to adapt to changes as your business evolves.
