My company is working with a handful of private investors and we would like to see what a typical term sheet looks like.

Does anybody know where I can find myself some sample term sheets that show equity investments and/or convertible debt?

Thank you.

TheFunded.com posted a term sheet that was a combination of a couple people and there was quite a lot of positive buzz around it.

May want to take a look at Orrick's Term Sheet Creator. They also have a lot of boilerplate forms in their Start-up Forms Library.

(I'm not associated with them in any way or can vouch for the quality. This is off a bookmark I saved a while back.)
