MAIN DETAILS: Case: Assume for purposes of this assignment that you have been asked to invest $50,000 in a new business. The other investors will be the executive officers and, will invest $150,000. You will be a 25% owner and be employed as an Assistant Vice President. All four investors will constitute the Board of Directors. You understand that it is very difficult to sell a minority interest in a closely held business to a third party. You also do not want the other three owners to take advantage of their position of controlling the Board of Directors. You have expressed these concerns to the other three owners, and they have asked you to propose the general terms of a shareholders’ agreement that will address your concerns
