  • 7 min read

Key Takeaways

  • LLCs and C Corporations differ significantly in tax treatment, ownership structure, and growth potential.
  • C Corps may be better for startups seeking investment due to ease of issuing stock and attracting VCs.
  • LLCs are easier to manage and more flexible in profit distribution and structure.
  • Tax implications vary: LLCs offer pass-through taxation, while C Corps may face double taxation but benefit from reinvestment strategies.
  • International business owners may prefer C Corps for credibility and ease of foreign ownership.

Tag Along Rights: All You Need to Know

  • 4 min read

What Are Tag Along Rights?

Tag along rights or "co-sale rights" are legal agreements that guarantee minority stakeholders the right to sell their shares in the company at the same time and under the same conditions as the majority stakeholder. These rights are often used when companies are founded and capitalized because it protects investors and encourages them to buy the company's stock at an early stage. This is especially true for most angel investors, who won't even think of joining unless there are tag along rights.

Why Are Tag Along Rights Important?

Tag along rights protect minority stakeholders by giving them a certain amount of control over their own investments. If a principal stakeholder of the company liquidates its share, smaller investors won't get a bad deal.

Co-sale

What Are Co-sale Rights?

Co-sale rights, also known as tag-along or (less often) take-me-along rights, are the rights of minority shareholders to join in when the majority shareholder or the founders sell their stock. Therefore, if the company's original owner sells his or her stock to a corporation for $20 per share, every investor with a co-sale right can get the same deal.

Co-sale rights are usually paired with the right of first refusal, or ROFR. With an ROFR clause, a company or its shareholders can buy the majority shareholder's stock if he or she decides to sell to a third party. This lets the current investors keep control of the company in case they don't like the third-party investor.

For example, say a company called Un
