1. Reserve **X%** of the total financing round (or **$Xk**) for investors committed to:
|
||||
1. A **capped return model**, targeting no more than **X% IRR or a fixed MOIC**, with excess gains recycled into employee equity pools or retained for other company purposes; and/or
|
||||
2. **Aligned exit incentives** whereby upon a Corporate Transaction (or other to-be-agreed milestones), investors recoup any gain on their invested capital _only_ if employee ownership pools or other forms of incentive equity (excluding those granted to the founders) also receive at least 50% of the full liquidity they are entitled to under the waterfall provisions (or otherwise distributions will be prorated as needed to ensure an equitable distribution to the employees).
|
||||
2. **Prioritize Shared-Risk & Embedded Shared-Outcome Structures**: Collaborate with Investors who embrace frameworks inspired by solidarity economics and cooperative finance, such as:
|
||||
1. **Profit-sharing**: Returns tied to enterprise success, not fixed interest;
|
||||
2. **Worker-Investor Covenants**: Mechanisms (e.g., side agreements, SAFE-like instruments) to ensure capital providers share both upside and downside risk with labor stakeholders.
|
||||
3. **Worker Friendly Governance**: Optionality for economic rebalancing (e.g., redistributive equity pools triggered at exit).
|
||||
4. **Vesting-Adjusted Dividends**: Investor dividends accrue but only vest upon equivalent employee profit-sharing milestones.
|
||||
3. **Transparency & Accountability**:
|
||||
1. Report annually on progress toward sourcing solidarity-aligned capital, including challenges faced.
