Housing.com's 2015 case shows how a single flaw in an investor agreement can lead to crores in losses! 🚨🚨 In 2015, Housing.com, a real estate search portal, faced a crisis. Despite substantial investments, including $90 million from 𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤, internal conflicts between 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝. The ousting of co-founder and 𝐂𝐄𝐎 𝐑𝐚𝐡𝐮𝐥 𝐘𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐯 revealed flaws in the investor agreements, lacking clear conflict resolution and founder protection clauses. This turmoil led to a 𝐩𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐞𝐝? A robust "𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧" clause and a clear "𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐕𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐱𝐢𝐭" clause could have mitigated the fallout and protected all parties involved. 5 Essential Clauses to Include in an Investor Agreement 🚨 1️⃣ 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐀𝐝𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞: Define performance milestones with flexible timelines. 2️⃣ 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞: Establish a clear mechanism for arbitration. 3️⃣ 𝐄𝐱𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞: Define conditions for investor exit, including buyback options. 4️⃣ 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐨𝐧-𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞: Protect sensitive business information. 5️⃣ 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐣𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞: Include provisions for unexpected events impacting business operations.

For all our business owners, one thing we commonly review (and commonly recommend edits to) is your shareholder agreement. First of all, in many cases, there is no existing agreement written on paper and secondly, in a lot of cases the agreement is outdated and needs revision. 🤝📜 A shareholders’ agreement provides several important benefits for businesses. Here are some key advantages although this is not an exhaustive list: 1. Clear Guidelines: A shareholders’ agreement outlines specific rules and guidelines for shareholders and directors. It helps prevent misunderstandings and provides clarity on how to address various situations within the company. 2. Investment Protection: The agreement safeguards the rights and protections of each shareholder. It ensures fair treatment concerning their investments and ownership stakes in the company. 3. Dispute Resolution: Shareholders’ agreements proactively address potential disputes. By specifying dispute resolution mechanisms in advance, the agreement helps resolve issues productively. 4. Ownership Control: The agreement defines the terms and conditions for shareholders’ ownership. It can include pre-emptive rights, which allow existing shareholders to purchase newly issued shares before others, preventing unwanted dilution of ownership. 5. Flexibility: Shareholders’ agreements can be tailored to the unique needs of the company and its shareholders. Whether it’s equal partnership or silent investors, the agreement can adapt to different scenarios. 6. Veto Powers: Silent investors may wish to retain veto power over key management decisions, such as changes in business vision, control shifts, or restructuring initiatives. Remember that while there is no legal obligation to have a shareholders’ agreement, the benefits it offers make it a valuable tool for any corporation in Canada. We've seen many cases where the shareholder agreement has prevented lawsuits, saved friendships and even saved a business. Take the time to have a proper agreement drawn up before it's too late! 🤝📜 #ShareholdersAgreement #BusinessOwners #InvestmentProtection #DisputeResolution #OwnershipControl #BusinessPartnership #CorporateLaw #CanadianBusiness #BusinessSuccess #CorporateStrategy #anholtgroup
