Liquidité et sortie clauses in a shareholders' agreement

Liquidity is the ability for shareholders to turn their shares into cash. This category covers the clauses that organize liquidity windows in a shareholders' agreement: redemption (forced buyback by the company at a date), MFN clause (most favored nation, guarantee that you'll get the best treatment if a later investor gets better), IPO with lock-up, secondary (purchase of shares by another investor). For founders, understanding these clauses is crucial: a poorly negotiated redemption can force the company to buy back investor shares at a moment when it lacks the cash. Atlas shows you the classic configurations and the rarer or riskier ones.
