Pre-Seed Round - $600,000 - 2 Options (Br... Ch...)

Br... Ch... was a company based on the LinkedIn model, which involved an expansion of an existing related business by a proven new business start-up entrepreneur.

In working with the company, there were a number of options explored.  The most aggressive option was one in which an equity kicker was provided to investors but no equity. A number of valuations and returns were projected using the below "Equity Participation" template model.

The Equity Kicker goal was to give investors a low-risk IRR in the 25-30% range based on the takeout value of the company (within a 5-10 year  liquidation event planned).

The other Term Sheet shown below was for a standard "Convertible Note" for an S-Corp.
