I am an engineer by training, an entrepreneur by nature and a leader by endurance. When not at my day job or answering questions on Answers.OnStartups, I can found running or biking through Golden Gate Park or swimming in San Francisco Bay. I am also the author of Frustration Free Technical Management, a book that teaches techniques to thrive as a manager.

comment Transfer product into LLC
You set the value and since it's a "founders" type of arrangement, there is no taxable event. I forget the exact IRS code but I had to deal with this once when getting founders stock for my contributed IP.

comment I'm (a co-founder) leaving my startup, how to deal w/ terms?
They are pretty flexible. Usually, they have buyout clauses and don't typically expire. The language does not usually include "At any time" since that might be a burden on the company. Rather, they have words like "A partner or investor has the option to sell back their shares to the company given certain conditions, etc." Obviously, it would be wise to talk with a lawyer about drafting such a contract.
