Securities Legal Questions and Answers

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!

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?

Revenue Sharing Agreement

California

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.

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).
