Vesting. 83(b) Filing. IP Assignment. Keep Your Cap Table Clean.


The "Dead Equity" Nightmare.

You have a co-founder. You shake hands. You start building. Six months later, they quit, move to a competitor, and take half your company with them.

This is "Dead Equity," and it is the #1 killer of early-stage startups.

Without an ironclad Equity Protection Bundle, you have no way to "claw back" shares from a departing co-founder. Without an 83(b) Election, you could owe the IRS millions in taxes on stock you haven't even earned yet. Without an IP Assignment Deed, the code your co-founder wrote belongs to them, not the company.

The Legal Atorney Founder Equity Bundle is the protective armor for your cap table. It establishes the "Vesting" and "IP Ownership" rules required to keep 100% of the company's value inside the corporation.


What You Get Inside the 10-Template Master Bundle:

  1. Common Stock Purchase Agreement (Founders): The master contract for selling shares to founders. It locks in the purchase price, the share count, and the vesting terms, creating the legal record of ownership.

  2. Founder Vesting Agreement (4-year/1-year cliff): The industry-standard "leash" on equity. This ensures founders earn their shares over time, protecting you if a co-founder walks away early.

  3. 83(b) Election Filing Kit: The most critical tax document in a founder's life. Includes a fillable template and a "How-to" guide on mailing this to the IRS within 30 days to save you from future tax bills.

  4. Confidential Information & Invention Assignment Agreement (CIIAA): The "Master IP Lock." Every founder and employee signs this to guarantee that every line of code, design, and secret strategy developed during their tenure belongs to the company.

  5. IP Assignment Deed (Pre-incorporation): The "Time Machine" document. It transfers any IP you created before the company was officially incorporated into the new legal entity, ensuring no "who owns this?" disputes arise later.

  6. Founder Collaboration Agreement: A "pre-incorporation" contract for the "dating phase" of co-founding. It defines roles, contributions, and the "what if" scenarios before you officially sign the incorporation papers.

  7. Right of First Refusal (ROFR) Agreement: Keeps your company private. It legally prevents a co-founder or early shareholder from selling their shares to an outside stranger without giving you the right to buy them back first.

  8. Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Plan Kit: A streamlined equity vehicle for companies not yet ready to manage the complexity of full stock options, allowing for simpler equity compensation.

  9. Stock Option Plan (ESOP) Starter: The governing document for your employee equity program. This is the "Master Rulebook" that defines how and when you issue options to your future team.

  10. Notice of Stock Option Grant: The official, formal letter you send to an employee or advisor to confirm their grant. It satisfies the legal requirement to provide notice and details of the option terms.


Why Founders Need This Specific Bundle:

I. It Prevents "Dead Equity": By enforcing 4-year vesting and a 1-year cliff, you ensure that if a co-founder leaves, their unvested shares are returned to the company, not sitting on your cap table like a zombie.

II. It Secures Your IP Chain of Title: If your startup is ever acquired, the buyer's lawyers will conduct an "IP Audit." If you do not have these PIIAs and Assignment Deeds signed and dated, the buyer will hold back a massive portion of your exit money in escrow.

III. It Saves You From IRS "Section 83(b)" Disasters: We do not just give you the form; we provide the Founder’s Guide that explains the strict 30-day deadline. This one document can literally save you millions of dollars in future personal tax liabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Do I need this if I have a co-founder I trust?
    YES. Even the best relationships end. A founder might have a health issue, a family emergency, or a change in life goals. These agreements aren't for the "good times"; they are the "emergency brake" for when things go wrong.

  2. Can I use this for non-founders too?
    Yes. The PIIA and the Stock Option Grant templates are designed to be reused for every early employee or contractor you hire, helping you keep your IP and cap table secure as you scale.

  3. Does this bundle replace a lawyer?
    It provides the standard legal infrastructure for your equity. However, for a priced Seed or Series A round, you should have an attorney review your cap table to ensure these initial grants align with the investor’s expectations.
