Founders’ Commitment Sample Clauses

The Founders’ Commitment clause establishes the obligations and expectations for the founders’ involvement in the company. Typically, it requires founders to dedicate a specified amount of time and effort to the business, often prohibiting them from engaging in competing ventures or outside employment that could detract from their focus. This clause ensures that the founders remain actively engaged in building the company, thereby protecting the interests of investors and other stakeholders by reducing the risk of divided attention or early departure.
