Every LLC that is registered in the states of California, Delaware, Maine, Missouri, and New York is legally required to have an operating agreement.
And while most states do not require LLCs to have a written operating agreement, having the agreement in writing can reduce uncertainties and is generally recommended.
Look through your files dating back to the business formation, and check your personal financial records (for example, your tax records) for a copy of the agreement.
An equity agreement is like a partnership agreement between at least two people to run a venture jointly. An equity agreement binds each partner to each other and makes them personally liable for business debts.
Once you (and the other LLC Members, if applicable) sign the Operating Agreement, then it becomes a legal document. Can I write my own Operating Agreement? Yes, but we recommend using an Operating Agreement template. An Operating Agreement is a legal document.
The members of an LLC are required to adopt a written Operating Agreement. See Section 417 of the Limited Liability Company Law. The Operating Agreement may be entered into before, at the time of, or within 90 days after the filing of the Articles of Organization.

The most commonly recommended approach to sharing equity in an LLC is to share "profits interests." A profits interest is analogous to a stock appreciation right. It is not literally a profit share, but rather a share of the increase in the value of the LLC over a stated period of time.
In New York, all LLCs must complete the publication requirement within 120 days after the effective date of the initial Articles of Organization. (The New York publishing requirement also extends to other limited liability entities, such as professional LLCs, limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships.)
