The llc is a private company and its stock does not trade


Sarah Clemmons and Ben Adamson formed an LLC and named it Best Manufacturing, Inc. in 2012 giving each founder a percentage of the company based upon their respective financial contribution. The LLC had articles of incorporation that authorized 50,000,000 shares of stock. Sarah contributed $750,000 and Ben contributed $500,000 in initial capitalization and issued the respective number of shares of stock to each founder at a price of $1.00 per share to start company operations. The LLC is a private company and its stock does not trade on a public market. Over the next 3 years Best Manufacturing grew to about $1,500,000 in total sales and had grown the staff of 7 employees. Their operation generated about 20% profitability on sales.   

Sarah and Ben decided to attract additional investment into the business. They determined that if they could raise another $750,000 initially with a follow-up investment of $2,000,000 the company could easily grow their revenues to $8,000,000 in sales with the added capital investments making their profit 5 times what it is now.

In 2015 Sarah and Ben contracted with a consultant to help find them enough angel investors to contribute the desired $750,000. Start-up Consultants, Inc. found 4 angel investors interested in investing in Best Manufacturing according to the following splits:

Angel Investor 1 - $150,000

Angel Investor 2 - $150,000

Angel Investor 3 - $200,000

Angel Investor 4 - $250,000

Start-up Consultant's Inc. advised Sarah and Ben that the investors would need a 40% interest in the company in exchange for the total investment of $750,000. Sarah and Ben also wanted to set aside a 10% portion of the all issued stock for a company wide stock options plan that could be used for incentivizing employees. The investors agreed to this additional provision
