Скачать или смотреть Term Sheet Rights Explained

Early-stage term sheets follow a clear structure that every founder should know.

They’re built around three core buckets of rights:

Economic rights: Valuation, liquidation preference, and exit terms. These define dilution and protect investor capital.

Governance rights: Board composition and decision-making controls that shape how the company is run.

Ancillary rights: Exclusivity, governing law, and clauses that keep the deal clean.

Valuation becomes the headline because it sets ownership. ESOP discussions heat up for the same reason, new investors often push for a pool expansion before they invest.

Watch the full episode to understand how these rights shape your deal.
