I am the president and own 65% of the business currently. The business involves a patent. My partners are asking for a buy out, which I am interested. But, part of the agreement they drafted includes the fact that they will receive their initial investment in return upon licensing agreements/the sale of the patent. I need some guidance on something like this. I would like to counter offer leaving the reimbursement of the initial investment out, after all their $45k investment has a potential return of multi-millions.
