      Amazing info I just updated my operating agreement. I do have one question, since I am operating an online hair store would you say everything in this video still apply or is the information shared targeted for a select group of LLC holders? If you have a video on how the online business world differs from that of the outside world, please feel free to share. Thank you :)

    1. Manager Managed
    2. No forced Distributions (to not distribute on an annual basis but have discretionary authority to make those distributions whenever) (no language in there that forces you to make annual distributions incase you are ever sued and the one that takes interest will want the annual forced distribution of the companies profits)
    3. Non-Pro Rata Distributions (In the distribution clause I would like to have non-pro rata distributions incase I add members in the future)
    4. Charging Order language (In an event a member is under duress. They can't take my interest from me in case the company gets sued, if a court tries to award their interest that they would become an assignee if a judgment is entered against me. The person that is awarded my interest (if ever sued) they don't get control over the company)
    5.Restrictions on transferability Language (That i can restrict who can become a member of the LLC to make it difficult for a creditor or anyone to take my interest of the company) (Example, a member transfers their interest to someone else and I do not know who that person is. I want to restrict that from happening unless I agree to the transfer)
    6. Proper Tax Provisions Language inline with my LLC (If taxed as S-Corp or C-Corp)
    7. No right to return of capital (Incase a creditor or anyone suing me takes my interest. They will want a return of capital that I have invested but I want to have NO RIGHT TO RETURN OF CAPITAL language in the operating agreement)
    8. Include Appointment of officers Provision Language (Allow me to call myself President, Secretary, CEO, Etc. to third parties and be able to appoint officers )

    Hi Clint - I’ve just recently discovered your videos, you’ve answered so many questions I had and still I have more. You’re content is just what I’ve been looking for!!!! Thank you so much. I’ve actually booked a conference with your Sr. Advisor and attended your webinar last Saturday and immediately signed up for Platinum. Since then, I’ve been trying to navigate and find more answers but it hasn’t been as easy as I thought it would be. The concept is most excellent but the execution, in my opinion, is a bit lackluster. I keep coming back to rewatch your videos to get answers, specifically this one because I’m one of those people you mentioned that made mistakes when forming my LLC. I’m just in the beginning stage of a larger plan in my business endeavor and need guidance and handholding from someone like you. I’m hoping to find that in your advisor. Maybe it’s me being impatient or maybe the process and system Anderson Advisor has set up needs a little tweaking, it’s new to me so I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt. I have still so many questions and pulling all the pieces together of what I’ve done and what I’m trying to do & envision is daunting. I need more than 30 minutes here and 15 minutes there. For continuity, and to get working on the right path you teach about assets protection and anonymity for future business ventures, real estate investments, and other deals; to somehow incorporate/correct the mistakes I’ve made with a proper Operating Agreement and maintain the LLC I’ve created (instead of forming a new one as I’ve already established a great credit file on it with multiple credit lines), what would be your advice on how to work with your company and what is a realistic timeframe I should be expecting for the total transformation of setting the right structure for my companies?

    Hi Clint. You provide excellent content.
    When you explained the first issue in your video, you talked about a person deciding whether the llc
    was going to be member managed or manager managed, and you mentioned that even though the person is
    going to be the member and the manager, you still like to set them up as manager managed because it
    tells everyone, that this is the person that has control.
    My question is the following: Could you apply this same reasoning when you use a Wyoming llc holding
    company as the member and manager of the llc instead of a person? In other words, could you state
    the following: "Even though the Wyoming llc holding company is going to be the member and the
    manager, I still like to set them up as manager managed because it tells everyone, this Wyoming llc
    holding company has control of the company."
    Whenever you mention the Wyoming holding company strategy in your other videos, you always say that the
    state specific llc will be member managed by the Wyoming llc holding company. therefore, i wanted to
    know if you could apply the above mentioned reasoning from this video to an llc held by a Wyoming llc
    holding company, where you choose to have the llc set up as manager managed by the Wyoming llc
    holding company.

    Hey Clint, I'll be forming an LLC' as a wholesaling exit strategy, where I sell the LLC prior to closing rather than doing a double closing. I've always appreciated the anonymity that Land Trusts provide but title companies don't want to close on land trusts in California. So I'm not sure if I should elect the LLC to be member or manager managed.

    • @ClintCoons
      @ClintCoons  2 года назад +2

      I would use a Wyoming LLC that is manager managed so the title company can’t see who is involved with the company. The reason I state this has to do with what information is available on the secretary of state’s website. If you use CA and do not file the statement of information you could make it work but WY does not ask for the names of the members or managers so it is my preference. When you sell the LLC, the buyer will restate the operating agreement to list himself as the manager and member. When title requests a copy of the opera taking agreement your name will not be associated with it and this will help the buyer finalize the transaction.

    Section 6.02. Annual Distributions of Net Operating Cash Flow. After reserving for the working and other capital needs of the Company, the Manager shall distribute Net Operating Cash Flow annually. These distributions if or when made shall occur at such times and in such amounts as the Manager may determine in the Manager’s sole and absolute discretion.

For example, would there be any legal advantages to forming a general umbrella LLC as a parent, to put a current LLC under and any future LLC's that may be created?

      Restrictions on transfer prevent someone from gifting away their interest in the LLC without your approval. The management is a different issue and it deals with who has control over the company. I hope this helps clear up any confusion. Thanks for watching.

    Hi Clint, I've watched this video multiple times, and am writing up my Operating Agreement for a JV LLC manager-managed (two managers: my corp, and my partner's corp).
    Some of the "8 stupid mistakes" are not mentioned at all in the free template I am using online . There is an option for additional clauses on the form. If the mistakes above are not mentioned at all, should I just leave it, or add statements to the additional clauses as such:
    1) Company agreement will not have forced distributions.
    2) Company agreement will include Non Pro Rata distributions.
    3) Company agreement will not have charging order language.
    4) Company agreement will include restrictions on transfer of interests.
    5) Company agreement will have no right to return of capital.
    6) Company agreement will have no officer appointment condition.
    If I should add these, please let me know if I screwed up on any of the 6 I listed. Another poster had asked you if he should have NO net to all of the mistakes, except Non Pro Rata and you said yes to him. After listening to your video again, it sounds like you're saying that we WANT an officer appointment condition, so maybe that should be: Company will have officer appointment condition???

    • @ClintCoons

      A JV LLC is a different animal all together and many of the provisions you need in your personal LLC will not translate into a JV LLC. I would recommend you consult an attorney to draft your operating agreement. I have seen far too many JV deals go bad.

    Hey Clint, thanks again for this vid.
    Question 1 - would the "Restrictions on Transfers" language conflict with what you stated in another video about creating an Assignment and transferring the LLC into, say, a Living Trust? Since this "Restriction on Transfers" is designed to make it difficult to transfer an LLC's interest, would it make it naming the Living Trust as the owner more difficult?
    Question 2 - if it's a Manager-Managed LLC, how would the Officer Appointment provision work? Would the Manager or the sole Member (in my case) have the authority to designate Officers?

    • @ClintCoons
      @ClintCoons  Год назад +1

      No one knows if you transfer an LLC into a living trust via an assignment. It is not recorded anywhere. #2 really no need to use officers in a manager managed but if you wanted to name an officer the managers would pass a resolution appointing an officer.

    • @ClintCoons
      @ClintCoons  2 года назад

      Absolutely you need an operating agreement. The charging order language is important because it reinforces your election to keep you interest from being assigned to a creditor. Further imagine what could happen if a state court asserted jurisdiction over a creditor claim against your interest in a WY LLC and you do not have an operating agreement to rebut it.

  • @NovaKatherine
    @NovaKatherine 2 года назад

    As for the Officer provision, should it be both in the WY holding company’s operating agreement and in a a subsidiary LLC’s agreement? Let’s say, subsidiary LLC’s agreement says that member(WY) is responsible for management of this subsidiary, and Member appoints a certain person President of this subsidiary. Would that be sufficient?

    Hi Clint, on your suggestion #5--- Is it mandatory that you put a tax provision on the OA? What if I want to be taxed as a disregarded entity first and then change to S Corp down the road. This means I would have to amend my OA whenever i change my tax status? Is it better to keep it silent on the matter.

    • @ClintCoons
      @ClintCoons  4 года назад +2

      A disregarded entity is silent for the most part. Typically it contains one paragraph indicating the entity is disregarded. If you want to switch to an S-Corp, yes I suggest you amend your operating agreement to incorporate the tax provisions. I think this is important from an audit perspective.

    1 set up as a manager manage
    2. no forced distribution
    3. Set up as a non pro rata distribution
    4.no charging language
    5. no restrictions on transfer of interests
    6. make sure tax provision is lined up with LLC (I still need to understand how it needs to be worded),
    7. no right to return of capital
    8. And no officer appointed provision
    Is this correct?

    • @ClintCoons
      @ClintCoons  2 года назад

      Set it up as follows:
      Manager managed if you are not looking for anonymity
      No forced distributions
      Allow for pro-rata distributions
      Charging order language
      Restrictions on transfer of ownership
      Not sure on the tax election you plan to make for your LLC so cant answer this one
      You should not have a right to return of any capital you contribute to your LLC
      You do not need officer provisions with this structure.
