Formation To Financing
Presentation providing an overview of key legal considerations on a startup\'s path from formation to financing.
Business Entities: classify, understand, choose, and manage.
Business entities are essential for starting, managing, and growing your business. This guides to business entities covers every major type, core concepts, criteria for choosing an entity, and legal entity management.
“Business entity” is a generic term with no legal significance per se. A business entity simply refers to the form of incorporation for a business. When a business incorporates, the law recognizes the business as a distinct entity which can enter contracts and acquire property among other rights and privileges.
There are, of course, some exceptions like sole proprietorships and general partnerships, which do not require incorporation. They also do not have the same right and privileges as incorporated legal entities.
There are four broad groups of business entities: limited liability companies, corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships. There are important flavors of each class of business entity.
The Crossroads of Corporate Law and Family Law - Spouses as Shareholders
Small and medium sized businesses are the engines which drive the North American economy. Increasingly, people go in to their own business. Often spouses and other family members are in business together. Because of mutual trust and sharing which exists at the start of these arrangements, spouses tend not to make agrements about what will happen if the marriage breaks down.
When spouses who are in business together divorce, there are also consequences for the business. Who will keep the business? What will the spouses be able to work together? How much is the business worth? Who should buy the business? How will a buyout be funded? These questions are just the tip of the iceberg.
In this PowerPoint slide presentation, we provide useful information about the legal problems confronting separating or divorcing couples who are in business together. By reviewing these slides you will gain important insights about the issues lawyers have to deal with in these situations. What law applies? What other kinds of experts do you need? What legal advice will you need to find a workable resolution? What evidence will you need if the case has to go to trial? What procedure must be followed? If you are in business with your spouse or life partner, the information in these slides provides a few pointers about Ontario law even if the relationship is continuing. Sometimes, a unanimous shareholders’ agreement or some strategic advice can help avoid expensive litigation down the road.
These slides were part of a presentation at a lawyers conference conducted by Osgoode Professional Development in Toronto on March 27, 2012. They are intended as information only and not legal advice.
The authors are experienced litigation and arbitration lawyers in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, who act on complex shareholder disputes, typically involving closely-held corporations.
Commonly disputed accounts final slideshare
This document discusses common areas of financial statement disputes that arise during post-closing negotiations following a merger or acquisition. It identifies eight financial statement accounts - cash, revenue recognition, inventory, accounts receivable/accounts receivable reserves, pensions, contingent liabilities, accounts payable, and industry/GAAP past practices - that are frequently disputed. For each account, it provides examples of issues that cause disagreement between the buyer and seller such as how in-transit cash is defined, how revenue cut-off dates are set, and whether reserves have been over or under accrued. The document advises addressing these potential dispute areas carefully in the purchase agreement.

This document outlines several key legal documents that are important for startups. These include filing articles of incorporation or organization with the state to legally form a company. Bylaws and articles should establish the company name, purpose, address, number of directors/managers, and stock structure. Operating and shareholder agreements help maintain control of the company by outlining what happens in adverse situations like a partner leaving or dying. Non-disclosure agreements protect a startup's proprietary information and ideas from competitors when sharing documents or financials with outside parties.

HOM INtro #28: Demand Your Note: A Foreclosure Intervention Strategy
The document discusses a strategy called "demanding your note" to delay or prevent foreclosure. It explains that foreclosing entities are often unable to prove they have legal standing without producing the original promissory note. The strategy involves sending a "Qualified Written Request" asking the lender to produce documentation of their right to foreclose in order to expose any deficiencies and potentially obtain a loan modification. Resources are provided for homeowners to properly execute this strategy.
The Supreme Court and Your Business
The webinar featured a discussion of the Supreme Court’s current docket and how it may impact securities professionals. It was jointly presented by Linda Coberly, former Supreme Court clerk and chair of the firm’s appellate and critical motions practice, and partner Jim Junewicz, who focuses on securities offerings, M&A, and corporate governance and frequently lectures on issues relating to capital markets. Participants received both general and Professional Responsibility CLE credit.
This unique program combined information about trends at the Court and specific cases of interest to business, including a discussion about what securities professionals can learn from those cases. Of particular interest was the Court’s recent decision in Omnicare, which provides explicit guidance for issuers preparing securities offering disclosure documents and periodic reports. Ms. Coberly was one of the lawyers representing Omnicare before the Supreme Court.

Key topics covered are strategies for negotiating bonus payments and loan forgiveness terms, defining acceptable reasons for termination in agreements, and handling client and proprietary information when moving firms.
Csp Seminar Final
This document summarizes information about short sales, including:
1) A short sale is when a lender agrees to accept less than the full payoff amount to facilitate the sale of a property when the homeowner is facing hardship and the home is worth less than the outstanding loans.
2) Short sales benefit lenders by reducing bad debt and foreclosure costs, and benefit homeowners by helping them avoid foreclosure and the damage it causes to their credit score.
3) For a short sale to be approved, the homeowner must prove financial hardship, the property must be marketable, and sale proceeds must cover a percentage of the original loan amount.

tctn12-31 LeadDepositEffectsUnleadedFuelAntiknockPerformance
The document summarizes tests conducted to determine the impact on detonation performance of a piston aircraft engine operating on leaded fuel prior to testing unleaded fuels. The tests showed the engine's antiknock performance with unleaded fuel experienced an increase equivalent to 1 to 4 Motor Octane Number after operating on leaded fuel. This effect was more pronounced at leaner mixtures and subsided with continued unleaded fuel use. However, the results were based on a short leaded fuel exposure and longer use could increase the effect's persistence. It is recommended to test unleaded fuels in a clean engine not previously used for leaded fuel.

NCET Biz Cafe | Milena Regos, From Burnout and Stressed Out to Unhustled | No...
We live in a world that prizes those who “hustle.” But what if there’s a better way?
Turns out, burnout and information overload are very real — in fact, we spend about 12 hours a day in front of a screen.
So what’s the solution to all of this overstimulation?
At our November Biz Café, speaker Milena Regos will advise us to shift our perspectives, live healthier and more productively — all by “unhustling”! Join us for this interactive session called “From Burnout and Stressed Out to Unhustled.” Regos believes that by changing your perspective and mindset, you will learn to invest in what’s important — thereby improving your health, happiness and business.
After attending this Biz Café, you’ll know more about how to do just that — to focus, to declutter your life and to invest in you. Some takeaways:
• Learn easy, manageable ways to simplify your life
• Understand why a focus on healthy living is so important to your business goals
• Discover achievable ways to care for your mental health
• Uncover ideas for creating tech boundaries

NCET Biz Cafe | Shawna Guarino | How to Build Your Bio/Elevator Pitch | Oct 2019
When it comes to business and first impressions, words matter — whether it’s the elevator pitch you employ at a networking event, or the “about us” page on your website that serves to allow potential customers to know who you are and what you do.
And this Biz Café is going to help you knock those first impressions out of the proverbial park!
Join us for an interactive session called “Building a Better Professional Bio/Elevator Pitch” with speaker Shawna Guarino. This presentation is designed for business owners and professionals who want to create an evolving professional bio for networking groups, about me/us pages, or print bios.

NCET Biz Bite | Mikalee Byerman, Train Your Brain for Success | Sept 2019
How many times have you entertained this thought: If only I were smarter or more talented, I could be more successful. And if I were more successful, I’d be so much happier.
But guess what? Research shows that only 25% of job success is based on IQ. An overwhelming 75 percent of job success is predicted by your sense of optimism, social support and your ability to see stress as a challenge instead of a threat.
The takeaway: It’s time to reframe our ideas about “achieving success.” What if happiness isn’t a byproduct of success, but instead, success is a byproduct of happiness? And what if you can program yourself to be more successful by tweaking something fairly simple — your personal sense of positivity?
Join us for an interactive session called “How to Train Your Brain for Personal & Professional Success” Speaker Mikalee Byerman — author, humor writer and communication strategist — has some tips and tricks to help you train your brain to embrace positivity, which will in turn serve to enhance your professional and personal success.

• Uncover your personal link between success and positivity
• Identify an actual value tied to your sense of happiness
• Develop specific ways to train your brain to be happier
• Explore case studies and real-world examples of positivity at work

NCET Biz Cafe | Alexanne Stone, Myths and Magic! | Sept 2019
Practically daily, news headlines tell of catastrophic crises befalling businesses — whether they’re natural disasters like floods or earthquakes, or manmade disasters like data breaches or Ransomware attacks.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a cheat sheet that helped you translate body language into sales success?
Well this Biz Café speaker may just have one.
Join us for an interactive session called “Body Language – Myths and Magic!” Speaker Alexanne Stone, Sales and Body Language Trainer, believes that your body speaks its own language — and it can help enhance your message, or it can stop it in its tracks.

- The power of four body language poses that kill your 30-second elevator speech.
Presenter Alexanne Stone, a decorated Vietnam-era U.S. Air Force veteran, is a certified Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) trainer. NLP is the study of the language of the mind and the minds of others. It lets you listen in to what’s underneath what a prospect or customer says, throwing open relationship doors and exploding sales. Alexanne combines the skills of her successful sales career with the nuances of both verbal and non-verbal body language.

We’re all looking for deeper, more meaningful professional lives, yes? And we’re guessing you’d appreciate the same from your sex life. This is why we’re bringing Marriage and Family Therapist Steven Ing to our December luncheon — to take a look at how the insights from a great sex life can also apply to making a great career.
So what career lessons can you learn from a relationship therapist?
Turns out, quite a few. (And just to be clear, we’re NOT suggesting the two intersect in a creepy way. It’s a metaphor. Honest.)
On December 6, join NCET and Steven Ing, MFT for a fun, pre-holiday Biz Bite luncheon. We’ll be exploring different aspects of a healthy sex life, and how those can give you inspiration if you’re looking for a greater, deeper (*ahem*) sense of job satisfaction.

How really knowing yourself is a critical part of a meaningful career.
How playfulness is essential to career satisfaction.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
