Questions buyers ask

Which funding rounds is it for?

Priced equity rounds from Seed to Series B using preferred shares. The term sheet and guide cover the clauses founders and investors usually negotiate at those stages.

Does it work for the UAE, DIFC, ADGM and Saudi Arabia?

It is written for UAE onshore companies, DIFC, ADGM, Saudi Arabia and the EU, and the guide explains where positions differ. Laws differ between these jurisdictions, so have the final documents reviewed by counsel in the governing-law jurisdiction.

What does the deal model calculate?

The cap table before and after closing on a fully diluted basis, SAFEs and notes converting at closing, the option pool, the exit waterfall for non-participating, participating and capped preferences, anti-dilution under broad-based, narrow-based and full ratchet methods, and up to three term sheets side by side with the effective pre-money valuation.

Is it for founders or investors?

Both. The term sheet is a balanced starting point with options for each clause, and the guide explains each position, so founders can prepare their ask and investors can prepare their offer.

Is the kit cheaper than the single files?

Yes. The four files cost AED 996 bought separately; the kit costs AED 699. All four share one worked example, so the numbers, the drafting and the board paper stay consistent.

Is this legal advice?

No. It is a template for preparing a well-informed draft. A lawyer in the governing-law jurisdiction should review the final term sheet before anyone signs it.

A template, not legal advice. Laws differ between the UAE (onshore, DIFC and ADGM), Saudi Arabia and the EU, so have the final documents reviewed by counsel in the governing-law jurisdiction.
