Considering the potential growth and profitability of your venture, it aligns perfectly with my investment objectives. However, I would like to suggest the following amendments to the initial proposal, which I believe will lead to a more mutually beneficial agreement: 1. Purchase Price: I propose a slight adjustment to the purchase price per share, taking into account the current market conditions, industry trends, and financial performance of [Company Name]. This adjustment will ensure a fair valuation of the stock and a reasonable return on investment for both parties. 2.

This will enable me to contribute actively to the decision-making process, adding value through my knowledge and expertise. 4. Vesting Schedule: To ensure alignment and commitment to the company's growth objectives, I propose a vesting schedule for the acquired shares over a specific period. This will help create a long-term partnership and encourage a focus on mutual success. 5.
