THE
LLC OPERATING AGREEMENT
Every limited liability company (“LLC”) should have
an LLC Operating Agreement. The LLC Operating Agreement is the
core document that is referred to when issues concerning the
LLC need to be resolved. The LLC Operating Agreement is the
most important document for your LLC. The LLC Operating Agreement
reflects the agreement among the members with respect to the
affairs and management of the LLC and governs the relationship
among the members of the LLC.
Run your LLC on your own terms
The Operating Agreement governs the operation and management
of the LLC. It describes the business and economic arrangement
of the members. LLCs need to document important and material
issues that could impact the members, such as profit-sharing
and decision-making rules as well as their procedures for handling
the departure/addition of members, and the dissolution/termination
of the LLC. Without an Operating Agreement, the owners will
be poorly-equipped to settle misunderstandings over the operations,
finances, and management of the LLC. In addition, without an
Operating Agreement, the LLC will be subject to the default
operating rules created by state law.
The LLC Operating Agreement generally specifies, among other
things, the business name, the official business address, the
identities of the members, the way in which cash is distributed
to the members, the way in which profits and losses are to be
divided between the members, and how the company will be managed.
The Operating Agreement should also reflect each member’s
financial contributions to the LLC and the member’s ownership
interests.
The LLC Operating Agreement does not have
to be filed with any state agency. All states will enforce
valid Operating Agreements entered into among LLC members.
The Operating Agreement will only be enforced against the
persons who are parties to the agreement
