My practice involves counseling businesses and individuals on a variety of contracts, such as business formation, technology/IP, real estate, leases, and even domestic relations agreements. Much of my practice is dedicated to litigation. As such, I approach contract and transactional work from a litigation perspective by advising clients of the risks involved in failing to develop proper contracts. It takes more than knowledge of the law to be a good lawyer. A good lawyer is honest and forthcoming with clients and has a counseling ethos. And, to me, a good lawyer stands in the shoes of the client when considering how to best serve that client. Whether my client is a business or an individual, I am passionate about helping my clients understand their rights, responsibilities, risks, and possibilities.

Private Placement Subscription Agreement

New York

Asked on Nov 10, 2024

Can you please explain the key provisions and considerations in a Private Placement Subscription Agreement?

I am in the process of investing in a private placement offering and have been asked to sign a Private Placement Subscription Agreement. While I understand that this agreement outlines the terms and conditions of my investment, I would like to have a better understanding of the key provisions and considerations that I should be aware of before signing. I want to ensure that I am fully informed about my rights, obligations, and any potential risks associated with this investment opportunity.

Danny J.

Answered Dec 26, 2024

Here are the top 5 most important provisions in a Private Placement Subscription Agreement: 1. Investment Details (number of shares/units, price, total amount) 2. Investor Representations and Warranties (accredited investor status, risk understanding, etc.) 3. Company Representations and Warranties (accuracy of information, compliance, etc.) 4. Transfer Restrictions (limitations on selling or transferring securities) 5. Use of Proceeds (how the company will use the invested funds) It's important to note that there are at least up to 12 key provisions to consider in a comprehensive Private Placement Subscription Agreement. In addition, each agreement can have unique terms that require careful consideration unique to the deal or industry it's for. The specific language used in these clauses can significantly impact your rights and obligations as an investor. Given the complexity of these agreements and the potential risks involved in private placements, it would be prudent to have a thorough legal review before signing. As an experienced securities attorney, I could: 1. Analyze the specific terms of your agreement 2. Explain how each provision may affect your investment 3. Identify any unusual or potentially unfavorable terms 4. Advise on negotiating more favorable conditions, if necessary 5. Ensure the agreement complies with relevant securities laws Would you like to discuss your specific Private Placement Subscription Agreement in more detail to ensure you're making a fully informed decision about this investment opportunity?

SAFE Note

New York

Asked on Mar 30, 2021

What is the difference between a SAFE Note and Convertible Note?

I am considering raising money and have been advised to look at these two instruments to raise money on.

Ramsey T.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

Both SAFES (Simple Agreements for Equity) and Convertible Notes "convert" into equity. The fundamental difference between the two is that SAFES have no built-in interest rate and have no "end date." Convertible Notes are debt so they have an interest rate and after a certain period of time (perhaps two years in most cases) they can be "cashed in" by the holder who can force the start-up to pay back the investor (principal plus interest). SAFES have become very accepted in the investing community at this time and I always recommend that a start-up issue SAFES (and conversely I always recommend that an investor get a convertible note).

Subscription Agreement

California

Asked on Jun 10, 2025

Is it possible to modify a Subscription Agreement after it has been signed?

I recently entered into a Subscription Agreement with a company to purchase shares in their business. However, since signing the agreement, I have come across some unexpected financial circumstances that may prevent me from fulfilling my obligations under the original terms. I am wondering if it is possible to modify the Subscription Agreement to accommodate these changes, or if I am legally bound to the original terms of the agreement.

Christopher N.

Answered Jun 13, 2025

The short answer, as with all legal questions, is: it depends. You can certainly propose modify or be reased from your obligations, and depending on the company, your circumstances, your relationship, and their financial position, the company may be willing to entertain accomodations. It doesn't hurt to ask. Be prepared, however, for "penalties," which could mean the loss of your entire investment, significant reductions in the amount of your investment, etc. You may want to consider approaching other investors to see they would be willing to purchase some or all of your stake -- perhaps at a greater value than the company would offer. We highly recommend you consult with a business or securities attorney to be advise you the specifics of your agreement and explore exit or other strategies. Good luck!

SAFE Note

California

Asked on Jul 13, 2023

SAFE Note interest accrual?

I am a business owner who recently completed a Series A round of funding. As part of this funding round, I issued SAFE Notes to my investors. I am now trying to understand the implications of these notes, specifically regarding interest accrual. I want to make sure I am compliant with all the terms of the SAFE Note agreement and understand the effects of interest accrual on my company's finances.

Thaddeus W.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

Thanks for the interesting question. There may be some conflation of issues here. A few points may help to clarify -- 1. A SAFE and a Note are different animals. Notes are debt instruments and, accordingly, usually have an interest component. SAFE's are not debt and so do not accrue interest. Convertible Notes and SAFE's are similar in that they both typically convert into preferred stock when the company **later** issues preferred stock. Also, Convertible Notes and SAFE's are often issued without regard to a company's then-current valuation. 2. You said your company issued SAFEs / Notes "as part of" a Series A funding. That's not legally impossible, of course, but it would be unusual, so it would be helpful to make sure we are using the same "glossary" of terms. Typically, the phrase "Series A funding" refers to a company's issuance of Series A Preferred Stock; such transactions involve putting a value on the company so that the Series A stock can be priced. Series A rounds often are preceded by the company issuing Convertible Notes or SAFE's without a valuation of the company (that is, the company and investors "kick the can down the road" to a later time when the company's operating history can justify a valuation). Then, when the Series A round occurs and shares of Series A are priced based on the company valuation, any pre-existing Convertible Notes and SAFE's convert into shares of Series A preferred stock at a conversion price that is equal to the price paid by the Series A purchasers, minus the discount that the Convertible Notes or SAFE's give to their holders. (NOTE: these days, often there is a round of preferred stock sold BEFORE Series A, called Series Seed. This is not required, but common. Sometimes SAFE's or Notes are issued between Series Seed and Series A, but, again, it would be the odd investor who purchased a SAFE or a Note in the same financing round in which preferred stock is sold.) 3. The implications of SAFE's and notes can be several. One of the biggest is their impact on the company's capitalization table ... that is, on the ownership interests of other shareholders, especially the founders. The terms of each Note or SAFE will determine their impact when they convert, especially if they have a "valuation cap" ... which is a provision by which an effective discount is given to the holder of the SAFE / Note. Valuation caps can result in more dilution to the founders and other pre-existing shareholders than they might expect, depending on the actual valuation of the company when these Convertible Notes and SAFE's do convert. 4. If you issued Convertible Notes or SAFE's as part of a Series A preferred stock round, the investors purchasing the Series A would have to have known about and approved of it. Their lawyers would have certainly raised eyebrows and asked questions. If these Convertible Notes / SAFE's were issued outside of the knowledge of the Series A investors, this would be expected to be problematic for the company, and possibly a breach of the Series A investment documents, or even a violation of certain securities laws. But, if all was approved by the investors, no problem. 5. Another implication worth noting is that since Convertible Notes are debt, they typically would be carried on (shown in) the company's balance sheet. Investors in Series A round always or nearly always have Information Rights to see the company's financial statements and be kept current on changes. Normally the company would have a contractual obligation to provide quarterly, if no monthly, financial reports and updates to Series A investors. These reports should include all information about SAFE's and Notes. 6. It should also be noted that Series A investment documents typically restrict the company from issuing many types of new securities without the approval of what these docs often call the "Requisite Holders." This is a defined term in the Series A investment docs (normally in the company amended and restated Charter), and is defined as the Series A holders that hold at least a stated number (e.g., a majority) of all of the Series A shares sold in the round. Note that these answers are not and should not be taken as legal advice for your particular situation. You should retain qualified legal counsel to have a formal lawyer-client relationship and your lawyer should review all relevant information. But, these concepts here are pretty fundamental. ~Thaddeus Wojcik, Wojcik Law Firm, PC

Asked on Dec 2, 2021

How do you fund a restaurant?

I am looking for an attorney who can help me put together restaurant business proposal to funding to expand my restaurant branch.

Russell M.

Answered Dec 14, 2021

There is not a lot of detail here so I am going to assume you are not asking about how to get a small business loan, or you aren't interested or able to get SBA financing for what ever reason. If you have a successful restaurant concept, you might want to look into Regulation CF crowdfunding. I am aware of a number of food and beverage businesses that have leveraged their existing loyal and enthusiastic customer bases and a well executed financial and PR campaign to fund expansion sites.
