Need a more complex amendment?
Multiple ownership changes, capital calls, converting membership interests, or unique situations? I can help draft custom provisions.
What an LLC Amendment does: Officially modifies your Operating Agreement to reflect changes in membership, ownership, management, or other key terms. It becomes part of your governing documents.
When you need one: Any time you add or remove members, change ownership percentages, switch between member-managed and manager-managed, update profit/loss allocations, or change your LLC name.
Unanimous Consent — Most Operating Agreements require all members to approve amendments. Check your original agreement for the specific voting threshold.
Capital Contributions — When adding a new member, they typically contribute cash or property in exchange for their ownership interest.
Buyout — When a member leaves, remaining members usually buy out their interest based on a valuation formula in the Operating Agreement.
Member-Managed vs Manager-Managed — Member-managed means all members vote on business decisions. Manager-managed means designated managers run daily operations while other members are passive.
Do I need to file this with the state? The amendment itself is an internal document. However, if you change the LLC name or registered agent, you must also file with the Secretary of State.
What if members disagree? Check your Operating Agreement for dispute resolution procedures. Some allow majority vote for certain amendments; others require unanimous consent.
Can I amend multiple things at once? Yes. This generator lets you combine multiple changes into a single amendment document.
