The Road to 50% Equity
Vesting is performance-contingent. Every $3,000 contributed (Repayment Tranche + Marketing Injection) unlocks a 10% equity block.
Repayment Milestone
By Q5, cumulative repayment contributions will total $15,000, triggering the final 10% tranche for 50/50 parity.
Liability Balance
Liabilities and shortfalls are split based on the equity held *during* that specific quarter. Risk scales with ownership.
Marketing & Corpus Liquidity
A mandatory 25% of all profits is siloed into a growth fund. We analyze the capitalization of this fund across two operational scenarios.
100% Retained fund
Balance after 15% spend
Fund Purpose
This fund covers marketing automation subscriptions, ad spend, and critical theatre equipment repairs. From Q11 onwards, this fund remains the core vehicle for business expansion.
Cumulative Fund Projection (12 Quarters)
Suggested Memorandum of Understanding Terms
Phase-Shift Trigger (Q11)
Effective Quarter 11, the 30% Capex Repayment allocation shall be terminated. The remaining 75% of net profits shall be distributed in a 50/50 split between the Owner and the Partner, with 25% continuing to be allocated to the Corpus/Marketing fund.
Proportional Liability Clause
All financial liabilities, including operational shortfalls, tax obligations, and debt, shall be shared equitably between the parties based on the ownership percentage decided for that specific quarter. Shortfall commitments are binding and non-negotiable.
Asset & IP Control
The Partner retains 100% ownership of the tech stack and event IP brought into the cafe until the 50% equity parity is fully vested. The Owner retains primary control over physical site licensing and structural maintenance.
Equity Tranche Mechanics
Equity is earned in 10% blocks. The Partner's marketing investment and 30% profit share constitute the "Contribution". Every cumulative $3,000 of Contribution earns 10% equity, terminating at a 50% cap.
