When a real estate deal goes bad as many are doing now, should limited partners have the right of first refusal to invest rescue capital on the same terms as anything the sponsor can bring in to save the deal? My podcast guest today, attorney Mark Roderick, calls it ‘pre-emptive rights' and, as you will hear, he explains it can make the best of a bad situation. But what does that look like in reality? Here's the script: *** Email #1: From Sponsor to Limited Partners (Investors): Subject Line: We're stopping distributions and need more money from you Sorry investors, we screwed up because we [select from the following] Didn't manage the property aggressively enough to account for a downturn. Underwrote debt levels to eternally low interest rates on variable rate terms and now can't afford the doubling of our debt costs. Our original loan is maturing, the value of the property has gone down, debt costs have skyrocketed, rent growth is not what we assumed in our proforma, and the bank will only lend us 60% of our original loan amount. Cap rates are now nearing 6% not the 4% we projected. Thought this time was different. In sum, we need you to pony up more equity so we can avoid losing the property to the bank. *** Email #2: From Sponsor to Rescue Capital fund (pref equity, mezz debt, whatever) Subject Line: Have we got a deal for you! Our offering docs allow us to bring in additional capital under any terms. Our bank will only lend us 60% of the original loan amount so we need to shore up the difference. Can you help us. *** Email #3: From Rescue Fund to Sponsor Subject Line: We're in! Sure. We'll come in with the 40% you need. We want second position behind the bank (ahead of your existing LPs) and if you miss proforma targets or fail to pay us on time, we''ll remove you as GP and wipe out your LPs' equity. *** Email #4: From Sponsor to Investors Subject Line: Great news! We've found some rescue capital. You get first right of refusal on the terms we just got to protect your investment. Terms are that your new capital will come in ahead of your old [or dilute it out completely], and if we screw up again, you get to remove us as GP. Please accept these terms or someone else gets them. Oh, and by the way, the Rescue Capital wants all or nothing so we need unanimous agreement from all Investors or we go with the Rescue Capital. *** Is this an ‘offer' or a ‘threat'? Or is the dialogue different somehow? At the end of the day, does having pre-emptive rights (right of first refusal) really mean anything? Tune in to hear my conversation with Mark Roderick as we flesh out the pros and cons of pre-emptive rights in a deal gone south.

Larry Richenstein has been in the hardware sales, development, and investment world for over 40 years. He is an angel investor in the New York Angels network and is currently the CEO of WePower Technologies, his latest hardware venture. Today Larry is going to share some valuable knowledge for inventors, startups, and small manufacturers on what angel investing is, what stages of development you need to get your product to in order to pitch to a professional angel investor, and how to do a good pitch once you are in the door. Today you will hear us talk about: An angel investor is usually an independent investor or a group of investors that invest in startup businesses. Angel investing are considers Angel investment is the first round, then venture capital. When it comes to products, there is a lot more that goes into them from a product development standpoint. Measure twice, cut once. You have to have all the development People that have ideas, get no funding. People that come up with a rough prototype or a rough prototype, it's interesting but generally still too early. What investors really want to see, is a working prototype. De-risking the investment occurs the further you push the product down the road. First, find angels that invest in hardware. Angel investors for hardware are out there. Come in with a pitch that proves that you have a strong likelihood of success Hardware and software are starting to come together. Crowdfunding is a powerful way to prove market validity. You no longer have to build for the masses, you can build for niche industries. Avoid feature creep, especially for your first version. Crowdfunding is a way to avoid outside investors.

Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Steve: I'm a connector, but my superpower is, one of my associates said to me, “You're not quite a connector.” I said, “What?” He said, “You're a weaver.”Weaver? I thought he called me weasel. He said, “No, you're a weaver. Because what you do is beyond a connector role. You connect people, and you get things done.”Stephen Shaff, founder and CEO of Community-Vision Solutions, is building a company to revitalize communities from the inside. “Our goal is to initiate, facilitate and agitate for the common good,” he says.“I'm a for-profit developer with a nonprofit mission,” Steve says. “Social enterprise with an equal mission for financial and social returns can happen.” The 35 years he's spent in the space testify to his conviction that this is true.AI Summary:1. Community Vision Solutions is a startup founded by CEO Stephen Share to build scalable economic equality solutions.2. They are a social consultancy providing collaborative services for community-based organizations.3. Steve's vision for the company is to initiate, facilitate, and agitate for the common good.4. He believes that social enterprise is a better way to rebuild communities and that it could be scaled to compete against the status quo.5. Steve's superpower is his ability to bring people together and create change.6. Steve, founder of Community Vision Solutions, discusses his superpower of weaving organizations together to make great things happen.7. Steve emphasizes the importance of working to one's strengths and passions to achieve success and purpose.8. Community-Vision Solutions aspires to be an employee-owned shop to ensure everyone is invested and receives a piece of the mission.9. Steve, founder of Community Vision Solutions, talks about how the company combines business and community development.10. The company is currently building its social media presence and launching a crowdfunding campaign in the coming months.Steve provided an example of the work he has done and hopes to do with Community-Vision Solutions:The typical arts organization that gets that phone call from the landlord saying, “Guess what? Thank you for improving our community. Now we're going to be putting the property up on the market.” Well, instead of that arts organization bemoaning the fact that they've got to pack up and move from the community they helped create, we work with them to find solutions. Can we put together a coalition or a network of investors and developers or other community stakeholders so that that nonprofit that may not have any money or resources or capacity to do this—can we create a joint venture that would preserve that property, buy the property, and then develop that in a way that benefits the community?This is an example of the sort of thing Steve has done in the past and is working to repeat.Crowdfunding has emerged as a relatively new tool that can benefit smaller-scale projects and small businesses, particularly in Black communities. Steve sees how these businesses can take advantage of the significant growth in waste management and recycling industries. By collaborating with wrap-around partners, they can establish a blueprint for setting up a computer or appliance warehouse, remanufacturing organization, and more. Crowdfunding can provide the necessary capital to set up these businesses, which can create local jobs and provide housing for community residents.Throughout Steve's career, he's developed the ability to weave people and projects together to catalyze positive change; he sees weaving as his superpower.How to Develop Weaving As a Superpower“Weavers get stuff done, and they have a certain impatience to get even more done,” Steve says.Steve recounts his successful efforts to revitalize a drug-ridden neighborhood over several years. Despite being a white outsider, he was able to gain the trust and respect of community members by treating them with dignity and working collaboratively. Steve emphasizes the importance of communication and mutual respect in any community-building project. Through his work, Steve demonstrated that outsiders can play a positive role in community development by listening to and collaborating with local leaders. He rejects the idea of "helping" others, instead emphasizing the importance of working together as equals. Steve acknowledges that his status as an outsider initially led to skepticism, but he was able to overcome this through persistence and a commitment to building relationships. Overall, Steve's story illustrates the transformative power of community-based approaches to problem-solving. By prioritizing communication, respect, and collaboration, he made a real difference in the lives of those he worked with. His example is a valuable reminder that positive change is possible, even in challenging circumstances.Steve has some simple advice for becoming a weaver: “Make sure everyone works to their strengths and their desire.” By optimizing roles and passions, the people you work with can accomplish significant change.You can make weaving a strength that becomes a superpower by following Steve's example and advice. You can do even more good in the world.SuperCrowd23Steve will speak at SuperCrowd23. He'll be moderating a panel discussion entitled, “Social Entrepreneurship on the Front Lines of Community Revitalization.” Get inspired by the remarkable stories of social entrepreneurs leading the charge in community revitalization.Superpowers for Good readers are eligible for half-price tickets.

On Today's Episode: Raise Green is a platform that allows people with as little as $100 to invest in projects that promote clean energy and climate solutions in their local communities. It relies on crowdfunding, so you don't have to be a solar finance guru or a billionaire to join those building a better tomorrow — and gain an opportunity to earn a healthy return.In the words of CEO and Co-Founder Franz Hochstrasser, "Invest today and make an impact you can see."In today's podcast, Host Nico Johnson talks with Franz and Raise Green Co-Founder Jackie Logan, the company's Chief Investment Officer (CIO), about their support for the innovators and entrepreneurs on the frontline of climate solutions. Raise Green builds upon Franz's background in policy, climate change, environmental, and social issues and advances Jackie's more than 20 years of capital markets experience.Join us for an introduction to the powerful concept of Regulation Crowdfunding, a relatively new financing method that pools small individual investments or contributions from many people.

Sazmining is building a platform for green, even carbon negative, bitcoin mining, said founder William Szamosszegi.Looking at the big picture, the environmental effects of Bitcoin are considerable, partly because bitcoins are made using electricity partially generated by gas and coal-fired power plants. However, replacing the energy source, and working also with methane could turn the situation upside down, believes Szamosszegi."More and more miners are starting to realize that you can actually leverage Bitcoin mining as a tool to clean up the methane problem. And it just economically make sense," Szamosszegi said.Learn more about:The concept of carbon negative bitcoin mining? Is bitcoin mining bad for the environment?Crowdfunding at Start Engine"We think that the future is a green future, in terms of where money is going to go, and where development is going to go. And then simultaneously, I'm very, very bullish on the future of digital assets, particularly when I say digital assets, I mean, Bitcoin, especially with a lot of the fractures being seen in the banking system today," Szamosszegi said.In the NatureBacked podcast of we talk with investors and entrepreneurs about their vision of the new green world.Subscribe to the NatureBacked newsletter on LinkedIn.
