What are Management Rights?
Management rights are rights that are written into a contract between companies and venture capital funds that allow the funds the legal rights to have significant influence in managing the company. These rights are essential to ensuring that venture capital funds have a say in what goes on in respect to the companies they invest in.
Management Rights Examples
Examples of commonly sought out management rights include:
- Example 1. Appointing directors to the board
- Example 2. Receiving quarterly or annual financial reports and audits
- Example 3. Examining books or other company documents

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
