What Is an Operating Agreement?
An operating agreement is a contract between the members of an LLC that defines how the company will operate. While LLCs are formed by filing documents with the state, operating agreements provide internal rules for management and ownership.
Operating agreements often include provisions addressing ownership percentages, management authority, profit distribution, and procedures for resolving disputes.
