Template overview Template Overview

When the member of the limited liability company rules on how the LLC will be running, they can use this LLC Operating Agreement. The document is also known as a Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement. Within these agreements, various separate sections cover all elements of the LLC's operations. The agreements regulate what will happen in particular cases of business closures, for example, when and how the LLC will be dissolved.

The document differs from an Articles of Organizations paper, as in the latter, the members are giving the state of filing details about the new company. Meanwhile, an LLC Operating Agreement is not listed with the state and is only an agreement between the members as to anything that could come up with the LLC. In order to validate the document, the members must conform to what is written in the Articles of Organization. That means that the terms of the Articles of Organization cannot change when it comes to the name of the LLC, the registered agent, the address, and other. Nonetheless, an LLC Operating Agreement will commonly add way more information about how the business is run.

Some states require an LLC Operating Agreement to make sure that the members agree on how the company should be run, what should happen if the LLC must close, and other relevant clauses.

How to use this template How to use this template

The best practice to fill the document by all the members of the LLC. Before filing the document, the member may discuss the significant elements of the LLC's operations and reach the agreement so that the form may accurately describe the business. Note that it is not possible to use the document for a single-member LLC. If you want to do so, you can use a Single-Member LLC Operating Agreement (ideti linka).

This LLC Operating Agreement will assist the members in compiling all the information needed to guarantee they have a well-done, comprehensive document governing their relationships and the LLC's life.

The person filing the document will have to enter the LLC's and the members' identifying information, the members' capital contributions and ownership percentages, followed by general questions on how the LLC will run.

A completed document should be printed and signed by all of the members. We recommend keeping copies in case any future disputes arise.

Applicable law Applicable law

Individual state laws govern Limited Liability Companies. No federal laws cover the requirements for an LLC Operating Agreement, as each individual state regulates the businesses formed within that state. Only a handful of states require an LLC Operating Agreement for registered LLCs: Delaware, California, Maine, Missouri, and New York. Of these, only New York requires a written agreement.
