# Kiowa Equity & Vesting Framework — Legal / Paperwork / Business-Scout Role
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> **Draft / template — not legal advice.** Working draft for LegalShield / an
|
||||||
|
> Indiana-licensed attorney and a CPA to review before granting any equity or
|
||||||
|
> having Kiowa sign anything. Items in `[brackets]` need confirmation. This
|
||||||
|
> framework is meant to be applied **fresh, per venture** — it is not a Holdings-level
|
||||||
|
> equity grant. Kiowa is **not** a Member of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC;
|
||||||
|
> Samuel S. James remains its sole owner (see `docs/operating-agreement.md`).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 1. Purpose and Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This framework governs the Membership Interest granted to **`[Kiowa's full legal
|
||||||
|
name]`** ("Kiowa") in any subsidiary LLC of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC
|
||||||
|
("Holdings") that Kiowa originates, sources, or brings to Samuel S. James
|
||||||
|
("Sam") for launch, starting with **Foodtruck1 LLC**. It is designed to be
|
||||||
|
reused, with fresh numbers, for every future venture Kiowa brings — each
|
||||||
|
venture gets its own independent grant and vesting clock; performance on one
|
||||||
|
venture has no effect on any other.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Kiowa's role per venture is legal/paperwork (entity formation, EIN
|
||||||
|
applications) and business sourcing/scouting. Sam's role is to secure and
|
||||||
|
contribute the venture's capital.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 2. The Grant
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Interest granted:** 15% Membership Interest in the specific subsidiary LLC.
|
||||||
|
- **Cash contribution required:** $0. Kiowa contributes no capital; the
|
||||||
|
interest is granted for services (formation work + sourcing the venture).
|
||||||
|
- **Holdings' interest:** the remaining 85% of that subsidiary is held by
|
||||||
|
Holdings, preserving Sam's ownership inside the holding structure (see
|
||||||
|
`../04-foodtruck1/requirements.md` for how this applies to Foodtruck1
|
||||||
|
specifically).
|
||||||
|
- **Membership status:** Kiowa is admitted as a full Member (voting +
|
||||||
|
economic rights) of that subsidiary as of the **Formation Date**, subject to
|
||||||
|
the vesting and forfeiture terms in §3–§4 below.
|
||||||
|
- **Formation Date** vs. **Opening Date:** the subsidiary's Formation Date
|
||||||
|
(Articles of Organization filed) may precede its **Opening Date** (the day
|
||||||
|
the venture actually begins revenue-generating operations — e.g., the day
|
||||||
|
Foodtruck1 first serves a paying customer). The vesting clock in §3 runs
|
||||||
|
from the **Opening Date**, not the Formation Date.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: record the actual Opening Date for each venture in that venture's
|
||||||
|
own requirements/planning doc as soon as it occurs — this date controls
|
||||||
|
the entire vesting schedule below.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 3. Vesting Schedule
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Measured from the Opening Date, cumulative net profit is tracked against
|
||||||
|
**Sam's total invested capital** in that specific venture (see §5 for both
|
||||||
|
definitions).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Milestone | Vests | Condition |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| 3 months | 3.75% (cumulative 3.75%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 6 months | 3.75% (cumulative 7.50%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 9 months | 3.75% (cumulative 11.25%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 12 months | final 3.75% (cumulative 15.00%) | **Conditional** — only vests if cumulative net profit has reached **2x** Sam's invested capital by month 12 |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Acceleration.** If cumulative net profit reaches 2x Sam's invested capital
|
||||||
|
at **any point before** the 12-month mark, Kiowa's interest immediately
|
||||||
|
vests in full (15%), regardless of which quarter has or hasn't passed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Forfeiture.** If cumulative net profit has **not** reached 2x Sam's
|
||||||
|
invested capital by the 12-month mark, the final 3.75% tranche is
|
||||||
|
**permanently forfeited** and reverts to Holdings. Kiowa retains whatever
|
||||||
|
vested through month 9 (up to 11.25%, depending on how many quarterly
|
||||||
|
milestones had passed). There is no later opportunity to earn the forfeited
|
||||||
|
tranche back for that venture.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: confirm this is intended to be final/permanent, with no cure period —
|
||||||
|
that is the current design.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 4. Per-Venture Independence
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each venture Kiowa brings gets its own grant, its own Opening Date, its own
|
||||||
|
invested-capital figure, and its own 12-month vesting clock, entirely
|
||||||
|
independent of every other venture. Underperformance (or over-performance)
|
||||||
|
on one venture has no bearing on her interest in any other.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. Definitions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **"Sam's invested capital"** — cumulative cash Sam or Holdings contributes
|
||||||
|
to that specific subsidiary, as recorded in that subsidiary's own capital
|
||||||
|
account (same mechanism as Holdings §6). Only actual contributed capital
|
||||||
|
counts — not the value of Sam's time, brand, or other in-kind
|
||||||
|
contributions, unless the parties agree in writing to value and include
|
||||||
|
those.
|
||||||
|
- **"Cumulative net profit"** — the venture's net profit from the Opening
|
||||||
|
Date forward.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA review: define precisely — GAAP accrual vs. cash basis,
|
||||||
|
whether Kiowa's own compensation/draws (if any) are expensed before or
|
||||||
|
after this calculation, and how it's measured/certified (e.g., monthly
|
||||||
|
bookkeeping close) so there's no dispute at the 12-month checkpoint.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Tax Treatment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA/attorney review, before any grant is made:]`
|
||||||
|
- This is intended to qualify as a **profits interest** (not a capital
|
||||||
|
interest) for federal tax purposes under Rev. Proc. 93-27 / 2001-43, so
|
||||||
|
that Kiowa does not recognize taxable income upon grant. This is most
|
||||||
|
straightforward for a brand-new venture with no existing value at grant
|
||||||
|
(e.g., Foodtruck1 pre-launch); confirm the analysis separately for any
|
||||||
|
future venture that already has value by the time Kiowa joins.
|
||||||
|
- Because the interest carries a real forfeiture condition (§3), it likely
|
||||||
|
has a "substantial risk of forfeiture" for tax purposes regardless of it
|
||||||
|
being called a full grant on day one. **Recommend Kiowa file a protective
|
||||||
|
Section 83(b) election within 30 days of each grant date** — this is a
|
||||||
|
hard IRS deadline with no extensions, and it is the single highest-stakes
|
||||||
|
item in this entire arrangement if missed.
|
||||||
|
- Confirm whether the subsidiary needs its own EIN/partnership return
|
||||||
|
implications once Kiowa is admitted (same multi-member consequences
|
||||||
|
already flagged in Holdings' own operating agreement §8).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 7. Relationship to Other Documents
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Kiowa's confidentiality obligations (including access to Sam's personal
|
||||||
|
information during formation/EIN work) are governed separately by
|
||||||
|
`nda-formation-partner.md` — that NDA applies regardless of which
|
||||||
|
ventures she ends up vesting into.
|
||||||
|
- Each subsidiary's own operating agreement (e.g., Foodtruck1's, still to be
|
||||||
|
drafted) should incorporate this framework's specific numbers for that
|
||||||
|
venture as the basis of Kiowa's Membership Interest, rather than repeating
|
||||||
|
bespoke terms — this doc is the source of truth for the deal logic.
|
||||||
|
- "Maintaining her value" as a legal/paperwork/scout resource is **not**
|
||||||
|
itself a condition on the equity — it's deliberately left out of the
|
||||||
|
vesting/forfeiture mechanics because it isn't an objective, enforceable
|
||||||
|
standard. The 2x/12-month profit test is the sole trigger. If ongoing
|
||||||
|
service expectations need to be enforced separately, that belongs in a
|
||||||
|
services description, not the equity terms.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: confirm this entire framework, especially the
|
||||||
|
repurchase/forfeiture mechanics and the 83(b) election timing, before
|
||||||
|
granting any interest under it.]`

<h3>4.1 "Actively Performing" Defined</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>At each quarterly milestone, Kiowa must be, at minimum:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Handling or coordinating legal filings, permits, renewals, and regulatory compliance</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Providing regular management oversight (financial reviews, vendor/operator
|
||||||
|
coordination, staffing decisions)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Responsive and available for Company business decisions within reasonable timeframes</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Not in material breach of the NDA or operating agreement</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>4.2 Acceleration</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>If cumulative net profit reaches <b>2× Sam's invested capital</b> at any point before
|
||||||
|
month 12, all remaining unvested service tranches vest immediately — Kiowa jumps to the
|
||||||
|
full 15%. This rewards exceptional performance without punishing normal first-year economics.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>4.3 Forfeiture / Separation</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>If at any quarterly milestone Kiowa is <b>not</b> actively performing (she resigned,
|
||||||
|
became unresponsive, or was removed for cause), that tranche and all future tranches
|
||||||
|
<b>do not vest</b>. She keeps the 5% formation grant + any service tranches that already
|
||||||
|
vested. Unvested tranches revert to Holdings.</p>

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>5. Capital Contributions & Buy-Up Option</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>The default arrangement is that Kiowa contributes <b>$0 cash</b> — her equity is
|
||||||
|
earned through services. However, Kiowa may elect to invest her own capital into a
|
||||||
|
venture under the following terms:</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>5.1 Buy-Up Mechanics</h3>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Additional equity available:</b> up to <b>10% additional Membership Interest</b>
|
||||||
|
beyond the 15% service/formation grant (maximum total: 25%)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Price:</b> at the same valuation as Sam's invested capital (i.e., $1 of Kiowa's
|
||||||
|
money buys the same % as $1 of Sam's money)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Timing:</b> capital must be contributed <b>before or on the Opening Date</b> —
|
||||||
|
this is a launch investment, not a mid-stream buy-in at a discount</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Vesting:</b> capital-contributed equity vests <b>immediately</b> (she paid cash,
|
||||||
|
so no service condition — same as Sam's investment)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Cap:</b> Holdings must retain at least 51% of any subsidiary to maintain control.
|
||||||
|
Kiowa's total (service + capital) cannot exceed 49%.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>5.2 How the Math Works</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>If Sam invests $50,000 for Holdings' share, that $50,000 buys the "remaining"
|
||||||
|
percentage after Kiowa's service grant (85% under the default). Kiowa can buy additional
|
||||||
|
points at the same rate:</p>
|
||||||
|
<div class="highlight">
|
||||||
|
<b>Rate per point</b> = Sam's invested capital ÷ Sam's percentage<br>
|
||||||
|
Example: $50,000 ÷ 85% = $588.24 per 1% of Membership Interest<br>
|
||||||
|
Kiowa wants 10% more → contributes $5,882.35 at or before Opening Date
|
||||||
|
</div>
|
||||||
|
<p>The resulting cap table would be:</p>
|
||||||
|
<table>
|
||||||
|
<tr><th>Member</th><th>Interest</th><th>Capital</th><th>How Earned</th></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Holdings (Sam)</td><td>75%</td><td>$50,000</td><td>Cash investment</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Kiowa (service)</td><td>15%</td><td>$0</td><td>Formation + management (vesting)</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Kiowa (capital)</td><td>10%</td><td>$5,882</td><td>Cash investment (immediate vest)</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td><b>Total</b></td><td><b>100%</b></td><td><b>$55,882</b></td><td></td></tr>
|
||||||
|
</table>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>6. Per-Venture Independence</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Each venture Kiowa brings or manages gets its own:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Grant (fresh 15% service + optional capital buy-up)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Opening Date and vesting clock</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Invested-capital figure and acceleration threshold</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Operating agreement</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>Underperformance on one venture has no bearing on her interest in any other.
|
||||||
|
Overperformance on one does not accelerate another.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>7. Distributions</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>5% formation grant</b> earns distributions from the Formation Date forward.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Service tranches</b> earn distributions only once vested — unvested tranches
|
||||||
|
do not participate in distributions.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Capital-contributed equity</b> earns distributions immediately (same as Sam's).</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Distributions are pro rata to each Member's vested Membership Interest.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>8. Tax Treatment</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>formation + service grant</b> (15%) is intended as a <b>profits interest</b>
|
||||||
|
under Rev. Proc. 93-27 / 2001-43 — no taxable income to Kiowa on grant.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>capital buy-up</b> is a straightforward capital contribution — not a profits
|
||||||
|
interest. Kiowa's tax basis equals her cash contributed.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Section 83(b) election:</b> Kiowa should file a protective 83(b) within 30 days
|
||||||
|
of each grant date. This is a <b>hard IRS deadline with no extensions</b> — the
|
||||||
|
single highest-stakes item in this arrangement.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Each two-member subsidiary files its own Form 1065 partnership return and issues
|
||||||
|
K-1s to both Members.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<div class="note">
|
||||||
|
<b>CPA review required</b> before any grant: confirm profits-interest qualification,
|
||||||
|
83(b) timing, and tiered-partnership filing mechanics between the subsidiary and Holdings.
|
||||||
|
</div>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>9. Confidentiality</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Kiowa's access to Sam's personal information (SSN, financial accounts, IRS
|
||||||
|
correspondence) during formation work is governed by a separate <b>Non-Disclosure
|
||||||
|
Agreement</b> (see <code>nda-formation-partner.md</code>). The NDA applies regardless
|
||||||
|
of which ventures she vests into and survives termination of any individual venture
|
||||||
|
relationship.</p>

<h2>11. Worked Examples</h2>

|
|

|
<div class="example-box">
|
||||||
|
<h3>Example A — Food Truck (Service Only, No Capital Buy-Up)</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Setup:</b> Sam invests $60,000 in Foodtruck1 LLC (truck + build-out + working capital).
|
||||||
|
Kiowa does formation work and manages the business.</p>
|
||||||
|
<table>
|
||||||
|
<tr><th>Event</th><th>Kiowa's Vested %</th><th>Holdings' %</th></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Formation Date (Articles filed)</td><td>5%</td><td>95%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Opening Date (first customer served)</td><td>5% (clock starts)</td><td>95%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Month 3 — Kiowa active, truck doing $8K/mo revenue</td><td>7.5%</td><td>92.5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Month 6 — Kiowa active, truck profitable</td><td>10%</td><td>90%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Month 9 — Kiowa active</td><td>12.5%</td><td>87.5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Month 12 — Kiowa active, cumulative profit $45K (below 2× $60K)</td><td>15%</td><td>85%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
</table>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Result:</b> Kiowa fully vests at 15% through service alone. The 2× test wasn't hit,
|
||||||
|
so no acceleration — but she wasn't penalized either. She earned it by showing up every quarter.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Distributions:</b> From month 6 onward (when truck starts netting ~$4K/mo profit),
|
||||||
|
Kiowa gets 10% × $4,000 = <b>$400/mo</b> in distributions (growing as her vested % increases).</p>
|
||||||
|
</div>

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<div class="example-box">
|
||||||
|
<h3>Example B — Food Truck (Kiowa Invests Her Own Money)</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Setup:</b> Same $60,000 truck. But Kiowa believes in this one and wants more skin in
|
||||||
|
the game. She contributes $7,059 of her own cash at launch.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Math:</b> Sam's rate = $60,000 ÷ 85% = $705.88 per 1%. Kiowa's $7,059 buys 10% additional.</p>

|
||||||
|
</table>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Day 1 (Opening Date):</b> Kiowa already holds 5% (formation, vested) + 10% (capital,
|
||||||
|
vested) = <b>15% vested immediately</b>, earning distributions from day one. Her service
|
||||||
|
tranches continue vesting quarterly toward a max of <b>25% total</b>.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Month 6:</b> Kiowa active → she's now at 5% + 5% (two service tranches) + 10% (capital)
|
||||||
|
= <b>20% vested</b>.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Month 12:</b> Fully vested → <b>25% total</b>. Holdings holds 75%.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Distributions at month 12:</b> If the truck nets $6K/mo, Kiowa gets 25% × $6,000 =
|
||||||
|
<b>$1,500/mo</b>. Plus she gets 25% of any year-end profit distribution.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Why Kiowa might do this:</b> her $7,059 investment is earning distributions from day
|
||||||
|
one (no vesting wait), and she's betting that 25% of a profitable food truck is worth far
|
||||||
|
more than $7K within a year or two. If the truck does $72K/yr net profit, her 25% = $18K/yr
|
||||||
|
return on a $7K investment. That's a 257% annual return.</p>

<h3>Example C — Second Venture (Kiowa Scouts a Laundromat)</h3>

<p><b>Setup:</b> Kiowa finds a laundromat opportunity. Sam invests $120,000. Kiowa invests
|
||||||
|
$14,118 (buys another 10%). Completely separate from Foodtruck1.</p>

|

<p><b>Month 5:</b> The laundromat crushes it — cumulative net profit hits $240,000 (2× Sam's
|
||||||
|
$120K). Kiowa's service tranches <b>accelerate</b> → she immediately jumps to 25% fully
|
||||||
|
vested. No waiting for months 6, 9, 12.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Meanwhile, Foodtruck1</b> is still on its own clock, unaffected. If it's struggling,

Kiowa's laundromat success doesn't help or hurt her food truck equity.</p>

**Disclosing Party:** Samuel S. James, individually, and in his capacity as sole
|
||||||
|
member of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC ("Holdings"), on behalf of Holdings and
|
||||||
|
its current and future subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company")
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Receiving Party:** `Kiowa Scott`, of `[address]`
|

|
|
||||||
|
**Effective date:** `[date]`

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 1. Purpose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party is assisting the Company with (a) preparing and filing business
|
||||||
|
formation paperwork (e.g., Articles of Organization with the Indiana Secretary of
|
||||||
|
State / INBiz) for new subsidiary entities, (b) applying for Employer Identification
|
||||||
|
Numbers (EINs) with the IRS on behalf of those subsidiaries, and (c) participating as
|
||||||
|
a Member of Foodtruck1 LLC, the Company's first subsidiary venture in which the
|
||||||
|
Receiving Party holds a direct ownership interest (together, the "Purpose"). This
|
||||||
|
Agreement governs the Receiving Party's access to and use of Confidential Information
|
||||||
|
in connection with the Purpose.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 2. Confidential Information
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Confidential Information" means any non-public information disclosed to or
|
||||||
|
accessed by the Receiving Party in connection with the Purpose, including without
|
||||||
|
limitation:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Personal information of Samuel S. James**, including Social Security Number,
|
||||||
|
date of birth, home address, banking and financial account details, government-
|
||||||
|
issued identification numbers, and information contained in IRS or state
|
||||||
|
correspondence (e.g., EIN confirmation notices, Secretary of State filings);
|
||||||
|
- Business and financial information of Holdings and any subsidiary not yet public,
|
||||||
|
including formation plans, ownership structure, financial statements, bank account
|
||||||
|
information, contracts, and business strategy;
|
||||||
|
- For Foodtruck1 LLC specifically, any menu, recipe, supplier, pricing, staffing, or
|
||||||
|
operational information not yet public, even though the Receiving Party is a Member
|
||||||
|
of that entity — this Agreement governs the Receiving Party's obligations **to
|
||||||
|
third parties**, not access between Members themselves.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Confidential Information does **not** include information that: (a) is or becomes
|
||||||
|
publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) was already
|
||||||
|
lawfully known to the Receiving Party before disclosure, as shown by contemporaneous
|
||||||
|
written records; (c) is independently developed without use of the Confidential
|
||||||
|
Information; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law, court order, or government
|
||||||
|
authority, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prompt written
|
||||||
|
notice (where legally permitted) before disclosing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 3. Obligations of the Receiving Party
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party shall:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Use Confidential Information **solely** for the Purpose;
|
||||||
|
- Not disclose Confidential Information to any third party without the Disclosing
|
||||||
|
Party's prior written consent, except as required to complete a specific filing
|
||||||
|
(e.g., submitting information to the Indiana Secretary of State or the IRS as part
|
||||||
|
of the Purpose itself);
|
||||||
|
- Protect Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care used to
|
||||||
|
protect the Receiving Party's own confidential information, and no less than
|
||||||
|
reasonable care (e.g., not storing Social Security Numbers or banking details in
|
||||||
|
unsecured files, shared drives, or unencrypted messages);
|
||||||
|
- Not use Confidential Information for the Receiving Party's own benefit or any
|
||||||
|
purpose outside the Purpose (for example, not using Samuel S. James's personal
|
||||||
|
information to open accounts, apply for credit, or take any action unrelated to
|
||||||
|
the specific filings the Receiving Party is authorized to make);
|
||||||
|
- Return or securely destroy all Confidential Information (including copies, in any
|
||||||
|
form) upon the Disclosing Party's request or upon completion of the Purpose,
|
||||||
|
whichever comes first, except for records the Receiving Party is legally required
|
||||||
|
to retain (e.g., copies of filings she submitted on the Company's behalf).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 4. Term
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement is effective as of the date above and continues for as long as the
|
||||||
|
Receiving Party is engaged in the Purpose, and survives termination of that
|
||||||
|
engagement:
|
||||||
|
- **Indefinitely**, with respect to Samuel S. James's personal information (SSN,
|
||||||
|
financial account details, and similar sensitive personal identifiers); and
|
||||||
|
- For **`[X years — TODO: confirm with counsel, e.g., 3–5 years]`** after the
|
||||||
|
engagement ends, with respect to all other Confidential Information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Termination of the Receiving Party's paperwork/formation role does not, by itself,
|
||||||
|
affect her separate rights as a Member of Foodtruck1 LLC, which are governed by that
|
||||||
|
entity's own operating agreement.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. No License; No Employment or Membership Created by This Agreement
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nothing in this Agreement grants the Receiving Party any ownership, license, or
|
||||||
|
intellectual property rights in the Company's brand, IP, or business, except to the
|
||||||
|
extent (if any) separately granted in writing (e.g., her Membership Interest in
|
||||||
|
Foodtruck1 LLC under that entity's operating agreement). This Agreement, by itself,
|
||||||
|
does not create an employment relationship, a partnership, or membership in Holdings
|
||||||
|
or any subsidiary other than Foodtruck1.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Remedies
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential
|
||||||
|
Information — particularly personal information such as a Social Security Number —
|
||||||
|
may cause irreparable harm for which monetary damages alone may be inadequate, and
|
||||||
|
that the Disclosing Party is entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to any
|
||||||
|
other remedies available at law or equity.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: confirm remedies clause and consider whether a liquidated
|
||||||
|
damages provision is appropriate given the sensitivity of SSN/personal financial data.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 7. Governing Law
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
|
||||||
|
**State of Indiana**, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 8. Miscellaneous
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Entire agreement.** This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between
|
||||||
|
the parties regarding confidentiality of the information described above and
|
||||||
|
supersedes any prior oral or written understanding on that subject.
|
||||||
|
- **Amendment.** This Agreement may only be amended in a writing signed by both
|
||||||
|
parties.
|
||||||
|
- **Severability.** If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining
|
||||||
|
provisions remain in full force and effect.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: consider whether this NDA should instead be incorporated
|
||||||
|
into (or accompanied by) a broader services/independent-contractor agreement covering
|
||||||
|
her paperwork/formation role, separate from her rights as a Foodtruck1 Member, which
|
||||||
|
belong in Foodtruck1's own operating agreement.]`

<h2>1. Formation and Purpose</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>This Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into by the
|
||||||
|
undersigned Members, <b>Samuel S. James</b>, <b>Annie Deondria Chatman</b>, and
|
||||||
|
<b>Richard E. Williams</b> (each a "Member" and collectively the "Members"), to govern
|
||||||
|
the operations of <b>SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC</b>, a limited liability
|
||||||
|
company organized under the Indiana Business Flexibility Act (Indiana Code § 23-18).
|
||||||
|
This Agreement amends and restates the Company's original single-member operating
|
||||||
|
agreement in full, admitting Annie Deondria Chatman and Richard E. Williams as Members
|
||||||
|
effective as of the date above.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company is formed to act as a <b>holding company</b>. Its primary purpose is to own,
|
||||||
|
manage, and oversee its subsidiary entities and other business interests. The Company
|
||||||
|
is not intended to engage in operating or client-facing business, and the Members shall
|
||||||
|
conduct the Company's affairs so as to avoid incurring operating liabilities directly.
|
||||||
|
This statement of intent does not by itself eliminate or limit any liability the Company
|
||||||
|
may actually incur under law; nothing in this Agreement should be relied upon as a
|
||||||
|
guarantee against liability.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>2. Registered Office and Registered Agent</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Principal office:</b> 759 Boxwood Drive, South Bend, IN 46641</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Registered agent:</b> Samuel S. James (a Member), serving as his own registered agent.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Registered office address:</b> same as the principal office above — 759 Boxwood Drive, South Bend, IN 46641</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>Samuel S. James, as the Member serving in this role, may change the principal office
|
||||||
|
or registered agent at any time, consistent with Indiana filing requirements. Serving as
|
||||||
|
one's own registered agent requires being reliably available at the registered office
|
||||||
|
during business hours to accept service of process; if that stops being practical
|
||||||
|
(e.g., due to travel, relocation, or incapacity), the Members shall promptly appoint a
|
||||||
|
commercial registered agent service and update the designation on file with the Indiana
|
||||||
|
Secretary of State.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>3. Members and Ownership</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company has three Members, holding the following Membership Interests:</p>
|
||||||
|
<table style="width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:14px 0">
|
||||||
|
<tr style="border-bottom:1px solid var(--rule)">
|
||||||
|
<th style="text-align:left;padding:6px 8px">Member</th>
|
||||||
|
<th style="text-align:left;padding:6px 8px">Membership Interest</th>
|
||||||
|
</tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr style="border-bottom:1px solid var(--rule)">
|
||||||
|
<td style="padding:6px 8px">Samuel S. James</td><td style="padding:6px 8px">97%</td>
|
||||||
|
</tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr style="border-bottom:1px solid var(--rule)">
|
||||||
|
<td style="padding:6px 8px">Annie Deondria Chatman</td><td style="padding:6px 8px">1%</td>
|
||||||
|
</tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr style="border-bottom:1px solid var(--rule)">
|
||||||
|
<td style="padding:6px 8px">Richard E. Williams</td><td style="padding:6px 8px">2%</td>
|
||||||
|
</tr>
|
||||||
|
</table>
|
||||||
|
<p>Each Member is admitted with full membership rights — voting, management
|
||||||
|
participation, and economic rights (allocations and distributions) — in proportion to
|
||||||
|
their Membership Interest, except as otherwise stated in this Agreement. Allocations of
|
||||||
|
profit and loss for tax purposes are made in proportion to each Member's Membership
|
||||||
|
Interest, unless the Members otherwise agree in writing and as permitted by applicable
|
||||||
|
economic-substance and tax requirements.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm capital account and tax-allocation mechanics for the new Membership
|
||||||
|
Interests, including whether any special allocations or a formal capital contribution is
|
||||||
|
being made by Annie or Richard in exchange for their interest.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>4. Management</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company shall be <b>Member-managed</b>. Each Member has voting rights in
|
||||||
|
proportion to their Membership Interest as set out in §3. Except as otherwise stated in
|
||||||
|
this Agreement, actions and decisions of the Company require the approval of Members
|
||||||
|
holding a <b>majority of the Membership Interests</b>. Because Samuel S. James holds
|
||||||
|
97% of the Membership Interests, he retains sole authority to approve or reject any
|
||||||
|
Company decision, including, without limitation:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Forming, acquiring, financing, and managing subsidiary entities;</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Opening and controlling bank and financial accounts;</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Entering into contracts and holding the Company's brand, intellectual property, and other assets;</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Admitting new members (which would require amending this Agreement — see §12).</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>Samuel S. James is designated the Company's day-to-day managing Member, with
|
||||||
|
authority to conduct ordinary business on the Company's behalf without a separate vote
|
||||||
|
of the other Members, subject to the majority-approval requirement above for major
|
||||||
|
decisions (e.g., admitting members, encumbering or selling material assets, or
|
||||||
|
dissolving the Company).</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm whether "major decisions" should be enumerated more specifically, and
|
||||||
|
whether Annie and Richard should have any consent rights notwithstanding their minority
|
||||||
|
interest (e.g., on related-party transactions or amendments affecting their own
|
||||||
|
interest).</i></p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>5. Subsidiary Management</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company is authorized to form, acquire, and hold interests in subsidiary limited
|
||||||
|
liability companies and other entities. The Company shall act as the <b>sole member</b>
|
||||||
|
(or controlling owner) of such subsidiaries so that the parent–subsidiary relationship
|
||||||
|
is clearly maintained.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>To preserve limited-liability protection for the Company, the Members, and each
|
||||||
|
subsidiary, the managing Member shall:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Keep the Company's assets, accounts, and records <b>separate</b> from those of every
|
||||||
|
subsidiary and from any Member's personal affairs (no commingling of funds);</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Document ownership of each subsidiary (the Company as sole member) in that
|
||||||
|
subsidiary's own operating agreement;</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Observe ordinary formalities for the Company and each subsidiary.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>6. Capital Contributions and Distributions</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Capital contributions:</b> Members may contribute capital to the Company as
|
||||||
|
needed and as agreed among the Members. Contributions are recorded in the Company's
|
||||||
|
books against each Member's capital account.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Distributions:</b> Distributions of available cash or profits are made to the
|
||||||
|
Members <b>pro rata in proportion to their Membership Interests</b>, at the times
|
||||||
|
and in the amounts the managing Member determines under §4, subject to the
|
||||||
|
Company's financial obligations and applicable law (the Company may not make a
|
||||||
|
distribution that would render it unable to pay its debts as they come due).</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>7. Bank Accounts, Books, and Records</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The Company shall maintain <b>its own bank account(s)</b>, separate from any Member's
|
||||||
|
personal accounts and from every subsidiary's accounts.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>The Company shall keep accurate books and records of its finances, ownership
|
||||||
|
interests in subsidiaries, and material decisions.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Records shall be maintained at the principal office and retained as required by
|
||||||
|
Indiana law.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>8. Tax Treatment</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>With the admission of Annie Deondria Chatman and Richard E. Williams as Members, the
|
||||||
|
Company is no longer a single-member LLC. By default, a multi-member LLC is treated as
|
||||||
|
a <b>partnership</b> for U.S. federal income tax purposes; each Member reports their
|
||||||
|
proportionate share of income and expense (per §3) on their individual return via a
|
||||||
|
Schedule K-1. The Members may elect a different classification (for example, taxation
|
||||||
|
as a corporation) by filing the appropriate IRS election. The best classification for
|
||||||
|
the Company depends on the overall tax strategy across the Company and its
|
||||||
|
subsidiaries, not this entity in isolation.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm tax treatment and any elections given the Company's new multi-member
|
||||||
|
status; confirm whether Annie's and Richard's interests are capital interests or
|
||||||
|
profits interests, since the tax treatment of granting an equity interest for services
|
||||||
|
differs from a purchased/contributed interest; confirm whether a new EIN or a
|
||||||
|
partnership representative designation (BBA audit regime) is required; a partnership
|
||||||
|
tax return (Form 1065) will likely now be required in addition to/instead of prior
|
||||||
|
disregarded-entity reporting.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>EIN:</b> 42-4099038 (IRS Notice CP575G, issued July 27, 2026)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Fiscal year:</b> Calendar year (January 1 – December 31)</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>9. Liability and Indemnification</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>To the fullest extent permitted by Indiana law:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>No Member shall be <b>personally liable</b> for the debts, obligations, or
|
||||||
|
liabilities of the Company solely by reason of being a member; and</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>The Company shall <b>indemnify and hold harmless</b> each Member (and any authorized
|
||||||
|
manager or agent) against claims, losses, and expenses arising from the good-faith
|
||||||
|
management of the Company <b>within the scope of the authority granted under this
|
||||||
|
Agreement</b>, except for acts of fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith, or acts taken
|
||||||
|
outside that authority (ultra vires acts).</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm this indemnification scope and its exceptions are consistent with Indiana
|
||||||
|
law and the Members' intended risk allocation; scope may need further tightening.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>10. Succession on Death or Incapacity</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p style="font-size:.88rem;color:var(--muted);background:var(--blank-bg);border-radius:6px;padding:10px 14px">
|
||||||
|
<i>In this section, "the Member" refers specifically to Samuel S. James, whose death or
|
||||||
|
incapacity triggers the succession provisions below — not to Annie or Richard in their
|
||||||
|
capacity as Members under §3. Decide: this section does not yet address what happens to
|
||||||
|
Annie's or Richard's own 1%/2% Membership Interest if one of them dies or becomes
|
||||||
|
incapacitated (e.g., does it pass to their estate, get bought out by the Company, or
|
||||||
|
pass to the other successor?). Revisit this with counsel before finalizing.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Base order of succession</b> (applies to incapacity — see Death below for a modified
|
||||||
|
order that applies on death). Successors are considered in this order, skipping any
|
||||||
|
successor who is unavailable, unwilling, or (for Ethan and Micah, per the age condition
|
||||||
|
below) not yet eligible:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ol>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Annie Deondria Chatman</b></li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Richard E. Williams</b></li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Ethan Nathaniel James</b> (the Member's son) — eligible only upon reaching <b>age 40</b></li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Micah Daniel James</b> (the Member's son) — eligible only upon reaching <b>age 40</b></li>
|
||||||
|
</ol>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Incapacity.</b> Upon the Member's incapacity, the first eligible successor in the
|
||||||
|
base order above shall act as <b>successor manager</b> of the Company — with full
|
||||||
|
authority to manage bank accounts, subsidiaries, and Company affairs — until the Member is
|
||||||
|
no longer incapacitated. Annie and Richard rank ahead of Ethan and Micah for this purpose
|
||||||
|
regardless of the sons' age. This provision alone may not be sufficient for banks or third
|
||||||
|
parties to recognize that authority; it should be backed by a <b>Durable Power of
|
||||||
|
Attorney</b> naming the same successor(s) in the same order. <i>Draft/execute a Durable
|
||||||
|
Power of Attorney consistent with this section.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Death.</b> Upon the Member's death, the base order above is modified: any of Ethan or
|
||||||
|
Micah who has <b>already reached age 40 at the time of the Member's death</b> ranks
|
||||||
|
<b>ahead of</b> Annie and Richard, in their original relative order (Ethan ahead of Micah).
|
||||||
|
Annie and Richard follow immediately after any such eligible son(s). A son who has
|
||||||
|
<b>not</b> yet reached age 40 at the time of the Member's death is unaffected by this
|
||||||
|
reordering and remains subject to the trust provision below.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p style="font-size:.88rem;color:var(--muted);background:var(--blank-bg);border-radius:6px;padding:10px 14px">
|
||||||
|
<i>Example: both sons 40+ at death → order is Ethan, Micah, Annie, Richard. Only Micah is
|
||||||
|
40+ → order is Micah, Annie, Richard, then Ethan (in trust until 40). Neither son is 40+ →
|
||||||
|
order remains Annie, Richard, then each son upon reaching 40 (held in trust until then).</i></p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The first eligible successor under this death order is admitted as a member with the
|
||||||
|
same rights the Member held. Because Ethan and Micah are not eligible until age 40, if
|
||||||
|
either is in line but under 40 at the time of the Member's death, <b>their interest shall
|
||||||
|
be held in trust</b> for their benefit until they reach age 40, administered by a trustee
|
||||||
|
named in the Member's estate plan (rather than held directly under this Agreement). <i>This
|
||||||
|
requires a trust structure in the Member's will/estate plan — coordinate this section, the
|
||||||
|
successor order, and the trustee designation with an estate planning attorney.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company shall <b>not dissolve</b> solely because of the Member's death or
|
||||||
|
incapacity, and shall continue under the successor(s) determined above.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>11. Transfer of Membership Interest</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Economic vs. management rights.</b> A Member may assign, pledge, or transfer
|
||||||
|
the <b>economic rights</b> (right to distributions/profits) in all or part of their
|
||||||
|
membership interest at that Member's discretion, without that alone making the
|
||||||
|
transferee a member.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Admission as a member.</b> A transferee is admitted as a member — with voting and
|
||||||
|
management rights, not just economic rights — only upon amendment of this Agreement
|
||||||
|
under §12.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Security interests.</b> A Member may pledge or grant a security interest in
|
||||||
|
their membership interest (e.g., to a lender) without that action alone transferring
|
||||||
|
management rights; the secured party's rights are limited to the economic interest
|
||||||
|
unless and until admitted as a member per above.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Transfer among the current Members.</b> Any transfer of Membership Interest
|
||||||
|
among Samuel S. James, Annie Deondria Chatman, and Richard E. Williams themselves
|
||||||
|
does not require a new admission under §12, but shall be recorded in the Company's
|
||||||
|
books and, if it changes any Member's ownership percentage, reflected in an
|
||||||
|
amendment updating §3.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm transfer/security-interest mechanics with an Indiana attorney and CPA, and
|
||||||
|
consider whether a right of first refusal or other transfer restriction should apply to
|
||||||
|
Annie's and Richard's interests before any transfer is attempted.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>12. Amendments</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>This Agreement may be amended only by a <b>written instrument signed by all
|
||||||
|
Members</b>. Amendments are effective on the date stated in the amendment.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><i>Confirm whether unanimous consent (as stated) or a majority-in-interest vote
|
||||||
|
should govern future amendments, including amendments that would change a Member's own
|
||||||
|
percentage interest.</i></p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>13. Dissolution</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>The Company shall continue in perpetuity unless dissolved by:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The written election of Members holding a majority of the Membership Interests (per §4); or</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Operation of Indiana law.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>Upon dissolution, the Company's assets shall be applied first to creditors (including any
|
||||||
|
Member, if owed), then distributed to the Members pro rata in proportion to their
|
||||||
|
Membership Interests, after which Articles of Dissolution shall be filed with the
|
||||||
|
Indiana Secretary of State.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h2>14. Governing Law and Severability</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the <b>State of
|
||||||
|
Indiana</b>. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
|
||||||
|
remain in full force and effect.</p>

## Why 3 instead of 7
|
- **Holdings = sole member (Sam only)** — no other members at the holding level
|
||||||
|
- **Kiowa's 15% is at the Hospitality Group level** — she participates in ALL mobile ventures under that group
|
||||||
|
- **All Hospitality ventures are mobile/trailer-based** — low investment, low overhead, no brick-and-mortar
|
||||||
|
- **Each group LLC is a liability silo** — a loss in one group cannot reach another
|
||||||
|
- **Properties leases to siblings** — if Properties owns a commissary, Hospitality leases it (keeps real estate insulated from operating risk)
|
||||||
|
- **Form entities when needed** — don't pay filing fees on shells with no revenue or liability
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Networking** covers everything physical + on-prem: same job site, same skill set,
|
## Kiowa Scott — Partnership Summary
|
||||||
same insurance pool (GL + cyber E&O). Cabling, firewalls, cameras, and servers are
|
|
||||||
one delivery team.
|
|
||||||
- **Digital** covers everything remote/code/cloud: same delivery model (keyboard, not
|
|
||||||
ladder), same insurance category (professional E&O). Cloud infra, websites, and
|
|
||||||
custom apps are one team.
|
|
||||||
- **Support** stays separate: it's the only division with recurring-revenue SLAs and a
|
|
||||||
different contract structure (ongoing responsibility vs. project-and-done).

# SnS Hospitality Group LLC
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Parent:** SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC (85%)
|
||||||
|
**Partner:** Kiowa Scott (15% — vested, permanent after Year 1)
|
||||||
|
**Focus:** Mobile/trailer-based food & beverage ventures
|
||||||
|
**Territory:** NW Indiana and Southern Michigan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Membership
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Member | Interest | Type |
|
||||||
|
|--------|----------|------|
|
||||||
|
| SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC | 85% | Capital + control |
|
||||||
|
| Kiowa Scott | 15% | Service equity (fully vested after 12 months) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Kiowa's Role
|
||||||
|
- Finding and securing high-traffic parking spots / locations
|
||||||
|
- Managing legal compliance, permits, renewals across all locations
|
||||||
|
- Overseeing day-to-day operations (hiring, scheduling, vendor relationships)
|
||||||
|
- Ensuring profitability of the mobile fleet
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Kiowa's Equity Terms
|
||||||
|
- **5% formation grant** — vests immediately when the group is formed
|
||||||
|
- **10% service grant** — vests quarterly (2.5% per quarter) over 12 months from Opening Date
|
||||||
|
- **Permanent ownership** — once vested, the 15% is hers regardless of future involvement
|
||||||
|
- **If she stops working:** loses management authority (no decisions, no signing power) but retains economic rights (15% of distributions as a passive member)
|
||||||
|
- **Incentive alignment:** distributions only exist if the trailers are profitable; profitability requires active management
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Location Strategy
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Target spots (NW Indiana + Southern Michigan):**
|
||||||
|
- Walmart / Meijer parking lots
|
||||||
|
- Near Chick-fil-A, McDonald's (capture their traffic, no coffee competition)
|
||||||
|
- Gas station lots on US-31, US-20, I-94 corridor
|
||||||
|
- Notre Dame campus perimeter (game days = 80,000+ people)
|
||||||
|
- Hospital/medical center parking areas (staff need coffee at 5am)
|
||||||
|
- Industrial parks (factory shift changes)
|
||||||
|
- Church parking lots (Mon-Sat)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**How to secure spots:**
|
||||||
|
- Approach property managers (not tenants) with a lease proposal: $500-1,000/mo
|
||||||
|
- Walmart has a formal vendor/lease program in some locations
|
||||||
|
- Start with 1 great spot, prove the concept, use that track record to pitch the next
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Why Coffee Trailers Win in Winter
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Hot drinks = HIGHER demand in cold weather
|
||||||
|
- Drive-through window = customers stay in their car
|
||||||
|
- Commercial lots (Walmart, etc.) are plowed/salted first
|
||||||
|
- No food spoilage, no grease, no complex health dept issues
|
||||||
|
- Only true shutdown: blizzard days where nobody leaves home (5-10 days/yr max)
|
||||||
|
- Compare to food trucks: dead 4-6 weeks in Midwest winter

# Kiowa Equity & Vesting Framework — Legal / Paperwork / Business-Scout Role
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> **Draft / template — not legal advice.** Working draft for LegalShield / an
|
||||||
|
> Indiana-licensed attorney and a CPA to review before granting any equity or
|
||||||
|
> having Kiowa sign anything. Items in `[brackets]` need confirmation. This
|
||||||
|
> framework is meant to be applied **fresh, per venture** — it is not a Holdings-level
|
||||||
|
> equity grant. Kiowa is **not** a Member of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC;
|
||||||
|
> Samuel S. James remains its sole owner (see `docs/operating-agreement.md`).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 1. Purpose and Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This framework governs the Membership Interest granted to **`[Kiowa's full legal
|
||||||
|
name]`** ("Kiowa") in any subsidiary LLC of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC
|
||||||
|
("Holdings") that Kiowa originates, sources, or brings to Samuel S. James
|
||||||
|
("Sam") for launch, starting with **Foodtruck1 LLC**. It is designed to be
|
||||||
|
reused, with fresh numbers, for every future venture Kiowa brings — each
|
||||||
|
venture gets its own independent grant and vesting clock; performance on one
|
||||||
|
venture has no effect on any other.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Kiowa's role per venture is legal/paperwork (entity formation, EIN
|
||||||
|
applications) and business sourcing/scouting. Sam's role is to secure and
|
||||||
|
contribute the venture's capital.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 2. The Grant
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Interest granted:** 15% Membership Interest in the specific subsidiary LLC.
|
||||||
|
- **Cash contribution required:** $0. Kiowa contributes no capital; the
|
||||||
|
interest is granted for services (formation work + sourcing the venture).
|
||||||
|
- **Holdings' interest:** the remaining 85% of that subsidiary is held by
|
||||||
|
Holdings, preserving Sam's ownership inside the holding structure (see
|
||||||
|
`../04-foodtruck1/requirements.md` for how this applies to Foodtruck1
|
||||||
|
specifically).
|
||||||
|
- **Membership status:** Kiowa is admitted as a full Member (voting +
|
||||||
|
economic rights) of that subsidiary as of the **Formation Date**, subject to
|
||||||
|
the vesting and forfeiture terms in §3–§4 below.
|
||||||
|
- **Formation Date** vs. **Opening Date:** the subsidiary's Formation Date
|
||||||
|
(Articles of Organization filed) may precede its **Opening Date** (the day
|
||||||
|
the venture actually begins revenue-generating operations — e.g., the day
|
||||||
|
Foodtruck1 first serves a paying customer). The vesting clock in §3 runs
|
||||||
|
from the **Opening Date**, not the Formation Date.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: record the actual Opening Date for each venture in that venture's
|
||||||
|
own requirements/planning doc as soon as it occurs — this date controls
|
||||||
|
the entire vesting schedule below.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 3. Vesting Schedule
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Measured from the Opening Date, cumulative net profit is tracked against
|
||||||
|
**Sam's total invested capital** in that specific venture (see §5 for both
|
||||||
|
definitions).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Milestone | Vests | Condition |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| 3 months | 3.75% (cumulative 3.75%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 6 months | 3.75% (cumulative 7.50%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 9 months | 3.75% (cumulative 11.25%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 12 months | final 3.75% (cumulative 15.00%) | **Conditional** — only vests if cumulative net profit has reached **2x** Sam's invested capital by month 12 |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Acceleration.** If cumulative net profit reaches 2x Sam's invested capital
|
||||||
|
at **any point before** the 12-month mark, Kiowa's interest immediately
|
||||||
|
vests in full (15%), regardless of which quarter has or hasn't passed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Forfeiture.** If cumulative net profit has **not** reached 2x Sam's
|
||||||
|
invested capital by the 12-month mark, the final 3.75% tranche is
|
||||||
|
**permanently forfeited** and reverts to Holdings. Kiowa retains whatever
|
||||||
|
vested through month 9 (up to 11.25%, depending on how many quarterly
|
||||||
|
milestones had passed). There is no later opportunity to earn the forfeited
|
||||||
|
tranche back for that venture.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: confirm this is intended to be final/permanent, with no cure period —
|
||||||
|
that is the current design.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 4. Per-Venture Independence
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each venture Kiowa brings gets its own grant, its own Opening Date, its own
|
||||||
|
invested-capital figure, and its own 12-month vesting clock, entirely
|
||||||
|
independent of every other venture. Underperformance (or over-performance)
|
||||||
|
on one venture has no bearing on her interest in any other.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. Definitions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **"Sam's invested capital"** — cumulative cash Sam or Holdings contributes
|
||||||
|
to that specific subsidiary, as recorded in that subsidiary's own capital
|
||||||
|
account (same mechanism as Holdings §6). Only actual contributed capital
|
||||||
|
counts — not the value of Sam's time, brand, or other in-kind
|
||||||
|
contributions, unless the parties agree in writing to value and include
|
||||||
|
those.
|
||||||
|
- **"Cumulative net profit"** — the venture's net profit from the Opening
|
||||||
|
Date forward.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA review: define precisely — GAAP accrual vs. cash basis,
|
||||||
|
whether Kiowa's own compensation/draws (if any) are expensed before or
|
||||||
|
after this calculation, and how it's measured/certified (e.g., monthly
|
||||||
|
bookkeeping close) so there's no dispute at the 12-month checkpoint.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Tax Treatment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA/attorney review, before any grant is made:]`
|
||||||
|
- This is intended to qualify as a **profits interest** (not a capital
|
||||||
|
interest) for federal tax purposes under Rev. Proc. 93-27 / 2001-43, so
|
||||||
|
that Kiowa does not recognize taxable income upon grant. This is most
|
||||||
|
straightforward for a brand-new venture with no existing value at grant
|
||||||
|
(e.g., Foodtruck1 pre-launch); confirm the analysis separately for any
|
||||||
|
future venture that already has value by the time Kiowa joins.
|
||||||
|
- Because the interest carries a real forfeiture condition (§3), it likely
|
||||||
|
has a "substantial risk of forfeiture" for tax purposes regardless of it
|
||||||
|
being called a full grant on day one. **Recommend Kiowa file a protective
|
||||||
|
Section 83(b) election within 30 days of each grant date** — this is a
|
||||||
|
hard IRS deadline with no extensions, and it is the single highest-stakes
|
||||||
|
item in this entire arrangement if missed.
|
||||||
|
- Confirm whether the subsidiary needs its own EIN/partnership return
|
||||||
|
implications once Kiowa is admitted (same multi-member consequences
|
||||||
|
already flagged in Holdings' own operating agreement §8).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 7. Relationship to Other Documents
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Kiowa's confidentiality obligations (including access to Sam's personal
|
||||||
|
information during formation/EIN work) are governed separately by
|
||||||
|
`nda-formation-partner.md` — that NDA applies regardless of which
|
||||||
|
ventures she ends up vesting into.
|
||||||
|
- Each subsidiary's own operating agreement (e.g., Foodtruck1's, still to be
|
||||||
|
drafted) should incorporate this framework's specific numbers for that
|
||||||
|
venture as the basis of Kiowa's Membership Interest, rather than repeating
|
||||||
|
bespoke terms — this doc is the source of truth for the deal logic.
|
||||||
|
- "Maintaining her value" as a legal/paperwork/scout resource is **not**
|
||||||
|
itself a condition on the equity — it's deliberately left out of the
|
||||||
|
vesting/forfeiture mechanics because it isn't an objective, enforceable
|
||||||
|
standard. The 2x/12-month profit test is the sole trigger. If ongoing
|
||||||
|
service expectations need to be enforced separately, that belongs in a
|
||||||
|
services description, not the equity terms.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: confirm this entire framework, especially the
|
||||||
|
repurchase/forfeiture mechanics and the 83(b) election timing, before
|
||||||
|
granting any interest under it.]`

<h2>1. Purpose & Scope</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>This framework governs the Membership Interest granted to <b>Kiowa Scott</b>
|
||||||
|
("Kiowa") in <b>SnS Hospitality Group LLC</b> (the "Group"), a subsidiary of SnS
|
||||||
|
Network Solutions Holdings LLC ("Holdings"). Kiowa's 15% interest is at the
|
||||||
|
<b>Group level</b> — she participates in ALL mobile/trailer-based ventures operated
|
||||||
|
under the Group (coffee trailers, food trucks, and any future mobile venture).</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Kiowa is <b>not</b> a Member of Holdings itself. Samuel S. James remains Holdings'
|
||||||
|
sole owner. This framework applies only to SnS Hospitality Group LLC.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Territory:</b> NW Indiana and Southern Michigan.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>2. Kiowa's Role (Per Venture)</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Sourcing and scouting the business opportunity</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Entity formation — Articles of Organization, EIN application, INBiz filings</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Ongoing legal compliance — permits, renewals, filings, registered-agent duties</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Management oversight — financial review, vendor coordination, ensuring profitability</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Handling or coordinating any legal issues that arise in operations</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>

<h2>3. The Grant — Split Structure</h2>

</table>

|
||||||
|
<h3>4.1 "Actively Performing" Defined</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>At each quarterly milestone, Kiowa must be, at minimum:</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Handling or coordinating legal filings, permits, renewals, and regulatory compliance</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Providing regular management oversight (financial reviews, vendor/operator
|
||||||
|
coordination, staffing decisions)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Responsive and available for Company business decisions within reasonable timeframes</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Not in material breach of the NDA or operating agreement</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>4.2 Acceleration</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>If cumulative net profit reaches <b>2× Sam's invested capital</b> at any point before
|
||||||
|
month 12, all remaining unvested service tranches vest immediately — Kiowa jumps to the
|
||||||
|
full 15%. This rewards exceptional performance without punishing normal first-year economics.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>4.3 During Vesting (Months 1-12)</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>If at any quarterly milestone Kiowa is <b>not</b> actively performing (she resigned,
|
||||||
|
became unresponsive, or was removed for cause), that tranche and all future tranches
|
||||||
|
<b>do not vest</b>. She keeps the 5% formation grant + any service tranches that already
|
||||||
|
vested. Unvested tranches revert to Holdings.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<table>
|
||||||
|
<tr><th>Scenario (During Vesting Year)</th><th>Kiowa Keeps</th></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Quits before Opening Date (formation work done)</td><td>5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Quits at month 2 (before first service tranche)</td><td>5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Active through month 3, quits at month 5</td><td>7.5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Active through month 9</td><td>12.5%</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Active through month 12</td><td>15% (fully vested)</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
<tr><td>Business hits 2× at month 7, Kiowa active</td><td>15% (accelerated)</td></tr>
|
||||||
|
</table>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<h3>4.4 After Full Vesting (Month 12+) — Permanent Ownership</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p>Once Kiowa is fully vested at 15%, <b>the equity is hers permanently</b>. She owns
|
||||||
|
it free and clear regardless of future involvement.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>If she stops working after full vesting:</b></p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>She <b>loses management authority</b> — can no longer make operational decisions,
|
||||||
|
sign leases, hire/fire, or represent the Group to vendors or landlords</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>She <b>retains economic rights</b> — continues receiving 15% of distributions
|
||||||
|
as a passive member for as long as the Group exists</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Holdings assumes full management control (or designates a replacement manager)</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p>Her incentive to keep working: distributions only exist if the trailers are
|
||||||
|
profitable, and profitability requires active management. 15% of nothing is nothing.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>5. Distributions</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>5% formation grant</b> earns distributions from the Formation Date forward.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Service tranches</b> earn distributions only once vested — unvested tranches
|
||||||
|
do not participate in distributions.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Once fully vested, Kiowa receives <b>15% of the Group's combined net profit</b>
|
||||||
|
across all ventures (coffee trailers, food trucks, and any future mobile business).</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Distributions are pro rata to each Member's vested Membership Interest.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>6. Group-Level Ownership</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Kiowa's 15% Membership Interest is in <b>SnS Hospitality Group LLC as a whole</b>,
|
||||||
|
not in any individual venture. She participates economically in every venture the Group
|
||||||
|
operates — coffee trailers, food trucks, and any future mobile business added to the
|
||||||
|
Group.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Her distributions are 15% of the Group's <b>combined net profit</b> across all
|
||||||
|
ventures. A strong-performing coffee trailer can offset a slower food truck month —
|
||||||
|
diversification benefits her.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>7. Distributions</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>5% formation grant</b> earns distributions from the Formation Date forward.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Service tranches</b> earn distributions only once vested — unvested tranches
|
||||||
|
do not participate in distributions.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Once fully vested, Kiowa receives <b>15% of the Group's combined net profit</b>
|
||||||
|
across all ventures.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Distributions are pro rata to each Member's vested Membership Interest.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>After vesting, if Kiowa becomes a passive member (stops working), she continues
|
||||||
|
to receive distributions — 15% of whatever profit the Group generates.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>8. Tax Treatment</h2>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>formation + service grant</b> (15%) is intended as a <b>profits interest</b>
|
||||||
|
under Rev. Proc. 93-27 / 2001-43 — no taxable income to Kiowa on grant.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>The <b>capital buy-up</b> is a straightforward capital contribution — not a profits
|
||||||
|
interest. Kiowa's tax basis equals her cash contributed.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li><b>Section 83(b) election:</b> Kiowa should file a protective 83(b) within 30 days
|
||||||
|
of each grant date. This is a <b>hard IRS deadline with no extensions</b> — the
|
||||||
|
single highest-stakes item in this arrangement.</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Each two-member subsidiary files its own Form 1065 partnership return and issues
|
||||||
|
K-1s to both Members.</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<div class="note">
|
||||||
|
<b>CPA review required</b> before any grant: confirm profits-interest qualification,
|
||||||
|
83(b) timing, and tiered-partnership filing mechanics between the subsidiary and Holdings.
|
||||||
|

<!-- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
|
||||||
|
<h2>9. Confidentiality</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Kiowa's access to Sam's personal information (SSN, financial accounts, IRS
|
||||||
|
correspondence) during formation work is governed by a separate <b>Non-Disclosure
|
||||||
|
Agreement</b> (see <code>nda-formation-partner.md</code>). The NDA applies regardless
|
||||||
|
of which ventures she vests into and survives termination of any individual venture
|
||||||
|
relationship.</p>

|
|
||||||
|
<div class="example-box">
|
||||||
|
<h3>Example C — Kiowa Stops Working (Year 3+, Fully Vested)</h3>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Scenario:</b> At month 14 (fully vested since month 12), Kiowa decides to step back.
|
||||||
|
10 trailers running, $1.4M annual profit.</p>
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li>Kiowa <b>loses</b>: management authority, signing power, hiring/firing, lease negotiations</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Kiowa <b>keeps</b>: 15% of distributions permanently = $137K+/yr after tax (passive)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Holdings hires a replacement operations manager (salaried — comes out of expenses before profit)</li>
|
||||||
|
<li>Net profit drops slightly (manager salary), but Kiowa still gets 15% of whatever remains</li>
|
||||||
|
</ul>
|
||||||
|
<p><b>Key:</b> Kiowa has every incentive to stay — if she leaves, whoever replaces her may
|
||||||
|
not manage as well, profits could drop, and her passive 15% shrinks. But she can never
|
||||||
|
be forced to work, and she can never lose the equity.</p>

## 1. Purpose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party is assisting the Company with (a) preparing and filing business
|
||||||
|
formation paperwork (e.g., Articles of Organization with the Indiana Secretary of
|
||||||
|
State / INBiz) for new subsidiary entities, (b) applying for Employer Identification
|
||||||
|
Numbers (EINs) with the IRS on behalf of those subsidiaries, and (c) participating as
|
||||||
|
a Member of Foodtruck1 LLC, the Company's first subsidiary venture in which the
|
||||||
|
Receiving Party holds a direct ownership interest (together, the "Purpose"). This
|
||||||
|
Agreement governs the Receiving Party's access to and use of Confidential Information
|
||||||
|
in connection with the Purpose.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 2. Confidential Information
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Confidential Information" means any non-public information disclosed to or
|
||||||
|
accessed by the Receiving Party in connection with the Purpose, including without
|
||||||
|
limitation:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Personal information of Samuel S. James**, including Social Security Number,
|
||||||
|
date of birth, home address, banking and financial account details, government-
|
||||||
|
issued identification numbers, and information contained in IRS or state
|
||||||
|
correspondence (e.g., EIN confirmation notices, Secretary of State filings);
|
||||||
|
- Business and financial information of Holdings and any subsidiary not yet public,
|
||||||
|
including formation plans, ownership structure, financial statements, bank account
|
||||||
|
information, contracts, and business strategy;
|
||||||
|
- For Foodtruck1 LLC specifically, any menu, recipe, supplier, pricing, staffing, or
|
||||||
|
operational information not yet public, even though the Receiving Party is a Member
|
||||||
|
of that entity — this Agreement governs the Receiving Party's obligations **to
|
||||||
|
third parties**, not access between Members themselves.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Confidential Information does **not** include information that: (a) is or becomes
|
||||||
|
publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) was already
|
||||||
|
lawfully known to the Receiving Party before disclosure, as shown by contemporaneous
|
||||||
|
written records; (c) is independently developed without use of the Confidential
|
||||||
|
Information; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law, court order, or government
|
||||||
|
authority, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prompt written
|
||||||
|
notice (where legally permitted) before disclosing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 3. Obligations of the Receiving Party
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party shall:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Use Confidential Information **solely** for the Purpose;
|
||||||
|
- Not disclose Confidential Information to any third party without the Disclosing
|
||||||
|
Party's prior written consent, except as required to complete a specific filing
|
||||||
|
(e.g., submitting information to the Indiana Secretary of State or the IRS as part
|
||||||
|
of the Purpose itself);
|
||||||
|
- Protect Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care used to
|
||||||
|
protect the Receiving Party's own confidential information, and no less than
|
||||||
|
reasonable care (e.g., not storing Social Security Numbers or banking details in
|
||||||
|
unsecured files, shared drives, or unencrypted messages);
|
||||||
|
- Not use Confidential Information for the Receiving Party's own benefit or any
|
||||||
|
purpose outside the Purpose (for example, not using Samuel S. James's personal
|
||||||
|
information to open accounts, apply for credit, or take any action unrelated to
|
||||||
|
the specific filings the Receiving Party is authorized to make);
|
||||||
|
- Return or securely destroy all Confidential Information (including copies, in any
|
||||||
|
form) upon the Disclosing Party's request or upon completion of the Purpose,
|
||||||
|
whichever comes first, except for records the Receiving Party is legally required
|
||||||
|
to retain (e.g., copies of filings she submitted on the Company's behalf).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 4. Term
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement is effective as of the date above and continues for as long as the
|
||||||
|
Receiving Party is engaged in the Purpose, and survives termination of that
|
||||||
|
engagement:
|
||||||
|
- **Indefinitely**, with respect to Samuel S. James's personal information (SSN,
|
||||||
|
financial account details, and similar sensitive personal identifiers); and
|
||||||
|
- For **`[X years — TODO: confirm with counsel, e.g., 3–5 years]`** after the
|
||||||
|
engagement ends, with respect to all other Confidential Information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Termination of the Receiving Party's paperwork/formation role does not, by itself,
|
||||||
|
affect her separate rights as a Member of Foodtruck1 LLC, which are governed by that
|
||||||
|
entity's own operating agreement.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. No License; No Employment or Membership Created by This Agreement
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nothing in this Agreement grants the Receiving Party any ownership, license, or
|
||||||
|
intellectual property rights in the Company's brand, IP, or business, except to the
|
||||||
|
extent (if any) separately granted in writing (e.g., her Membership Interest in
|
||||||
|
Foodtruck1 LLC under that entity's operating agreement). This Agreement, by itself,
|
||||||
|
does not create an employment relationship, a partnership, or membership in Holdings
|
||||||
|
or any subsidiary other than Foodtruck1.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Remedies
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Receiving Party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential
|
||||||
|
Information — particularly personal information such as a Social Security Number —
|
||||||
|
may cause irreparable harm for which monetary damages alone may be inadequate, and
|
||||||
|
that the Disclosing Party is entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to any
|
||||||
|
other remedies available at law or equity.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: confirm remedies clause and consider whether a liquidated
|
||||||
|
damages provision is appropriate given the sensitivity of SSN/personal financial data.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 7. Governing Law
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
|
||||||
|
**State of Indiana**, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 8. Miscellaneous
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Entire agreement.** This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between
|
||||||
|
the parties regarding confidentiality of the information described above and
|
||||||
|
supersedes any prior oral or written understanding on that subject.
|
||||||
|
- **Amendment.** This Agreement may only be amended in a writing signed by both
|
||||||
|
parties.
|
||||||
|
- **Severability.** If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining
|
||||||
|
provisions remain in full force and effect.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: consider whether this NDA should instead be incorporated
|
||||||
|
into (or accompanied by) a broader services/independent-contractor agreement covering
|
||||||
|
her paperwork/formation role, separate from her rights as a Foodtruck1 Member, which
|
||||||
|
belong in Foodtruck1's own operating agreement.]`

# Operating Agreement for Foodtruck1 LLC
|

|
|

|
> **Draft / template — not legal advice.** This is a working draft for a
|
||||||
|
> **two-member** Indiana LLC that is a subsidiary of SnS Network Solutions Holdings
|
||||||
|
> LLC. Unlike the other subsidiaries, this one is **not** wholly owned by Holdings —
|
||||||
|
> it has a second Member holding a performance-vesting interest. Have an

||||||
|
> Indiana-licensed attorney and a CPA review and finalize this before either party
|
||||||
|
> signs. Items in `[brackets]` need your specific information; items marked
|
||||||
|
> `[TODO — attorney/CPA review]` should be confirmed with counsel.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Entity:** `[Foodtruck1 LLC — confirm final legal name once filed]` (the "Company")
|
||||||
|
**Parent:** SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC (the "Parent Company"), 85% Member
|
||||||
|
**Second Member:** `Kiowa Scott` ("Kiowa"), 15% Member (vesting)
|
||||||
|
**State of formation:** Indiana
|
||||||
|
**Effective date:** `[Effective Date — the date this Agreement is adopted]`
|

|

|
|

|
## 1. Formation and Purpose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Operating Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into by the Members, **SnS
|
||||||
|
Network Solutions Holdings LLC** (the "Parent Company") and **`Kiowa Scott`**
|
||||||
|
("Kiowa"), to govern the operations of **Foodtruck1 LLC**, a limited
|
||||||
|
liability company organized under the Indiana Business Flexibility Act (Indiana Code
|
||||||
|
§ 23-18).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company is an **operating subsidiary** formed to operate a mobile food truck
|
||||||
|
business. Unlike the Parent Company, the Company **does** conduct client-facing
|
||||||
|
work and carries the operating liability associated with that work (food service,
|
||||||
|
a commercial vehicle, and — depending on the staffing model chosen — employees),
|
||||||
|
which is why it is held in a separate LLC, walling that liability off from the
|
||||||
|
Parent Company and from every sibling subsidiary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 2. Registered Office and Registered Agent
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Principal office:** `[Principal business address]`
|
||||||
|
- **Registered agent:** `[Registered agent name]`
|
||||||
|
- **Registered office address:** `[Indiana street address of the registered agent]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 3. Members and Ownership
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Member | Membership Interest | Capital Contributed |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC | 85% | `[$ amount — Sam's invested capital in this venture]` |
|
||||||
|
| Kiowa | 15% (subject to vesting — see §5) | $0 |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Kiowa is admitted as a full Member — with voting and economic rights — as of the
|
||||||
|
Effective Date, granted in exchange for her services (business formation/paperwork
|
||||||
|
work and originating this venture), not for a cash contribution. Her 15% interest is
|
||||||
|
subject to the vesting and forfeiture terms in §5, which control over any
|
||||||
|
inconsistent provision elsewhere in this Agreement.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Allocations of profit and loss for tax purposes are made in proportion to each
|
||||||
|
Member's Membership Interest, subject to §5 and §8.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA review: confirm capital account mechanics for a $0-contribution,
|
||||||
|
services-for-equity Member, and how allocations should work while her interest is
|
||||||
|
partly unvested — see §5 and §8.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 4. Management
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company shall be **Member-managed**. Because the Parent Company holds a Membership
|
||||||
|
Interest majority (85%), the Parent Company — acting through its authorized
|
||||||
|
representative, **Samuel S. James** — retains sole authority to approve or reject
|
||||||
|
major Company decisions, including:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Entering into contracts, leases, and vendor/supplier agreements;
|
||||||
|
- Opening and controlling the Company's bank and financial accounts;
|
||||||
|
- Procuring insurance and equipment;
|
||||||
|
- Hiring and directing employees, or engaging an independent operator, per the
|
||||||
|
staffing model chosen (see §10);
|
||||||
|
- Admitting any new member (which requires amending this Agreement — see §12).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Day-to-day management** (routes, customers, daily operations) is delegated to
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: designate — Kiowa, a hired operator under a lease/license arrangement, or a
|
||||||
|
hired manager under a direct-hire staffing model; pending the staffing-model decision
|
||||||
|
referenced in `../requirements.md`]`, who reports to Samuel S. James as the Parent
|
||||||
|
Company's authorized representative.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. Vesting and Forfeiture of Kiowa's Membership Interest
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This section is the controlling reference for Kiowa's equity — consistent with, and
|
||||||
|
incorporating, the terms of
|
||||||
|
[`../../00-sns-holding/docs/kiowa-equity-framework.md`](../../00-sns-holding/docs/kiowa-equity-framework.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.1 Vesting schedule.** Measured from the Company's **Opening Date** (the date the
|
||||||
|
Company begins revenue-generating operations — `[TODO: record actual date once
|
||||||
|
known]` — not the date this Agreement is signed or the date Articles of Organization
|
||||||
|
are filed):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Milestone (from Opening Date) | Vests | Condition |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| 3 months | 3.75% (cumulative 3.75%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 6 months | 3.75% (cumulative 7.50%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 9 months | 3.75% (cumulative 11.25%) | Time-based, unconditional |
|
||||||
|
| 12 months | final 3.75% (cumulative 15.00%) | Conditional — only vests if cumulative net profit has reached **2x** the Parent Company's invested capital (per §3) by month 12 |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.2 Acceleration.** If the Company's cumulative net profit reaches 2x the Parent
|
||||||
|
Company's invested capital at any point before the 12-month mark, Kiowa's interest
|
||||||
|
immediately and fully vests to 15%, regardless of which quarterly milestone has or
|
||||||
|
has not yet passed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.3 Forfeiture and repurchase.** If cumulative net profit has **not** reached 2x
|
||||||
|
the Parent Company's invested capital by the 12-month mark, the final 3.75% tranche
|
||||||
|
does not vest. The Parent Company has the option (exercisable within
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — e.g., 90 days]` of the 12-month mark) to repurchase that unvested tranche
|
||||||
|
from Kiowa for **`[$1.00 — nominal consideration, given no cash was paid in]`**. Upon
|
||||||
|
exercise, Kiowa's Membership Interest permanently reduces to whatever had vested
|
||||||
|
through month 9 (up to 11.25%), and the repurchased tranche is transferred to the
|
||||||
|
Parent Company. There is no cure period and no later opportunity to re-earn the
|
||||||
|
forfeited tranche for this venture.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.4 Distributions during the vesting period.** Until any tranche is forfeited under
|
||||||
|
§5.3, Kiowa receives distributions on her full 15% Membership Interest as if fully
|
||||||
|
vested (consistent with profits-interest tax treatment — see §8). Forfeiture under
|
||||||
|
§5.3 applies only prospectively: distributions already paid to Kiowa before the
|
||||||
|
forfeiture date are not clawed back.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA review: confirm this "full distributions during vesting, forfeiture only
|
||||||
|
prospective" approach is consistent with, or needs a formal forfeiture-allocation
|
||||||
|
provision for, profits-interest safe-harbor tax treatment.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.5 Independence from other ventures.** This vesting arrangement applies only to
|
||||||
|
Kiowa's interest in this Company. It has no effect on, and is not affected by, any
|
||||||
|
equity Kiowa may be granted in any other subsidiary she originates.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Bank Accounts, Books, and Records
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The Company shall maintain **its own bank account(s)**, separate from the Parent
|
||||||
|
Company's and from every sibling subsidiary's accounts.
|
||||||
|
- The Company shall keep accurate books and records of its finances, contracts, and
|
||||||
|
material decisions — including records sufficient to verify the vesting milestones
|
||||||
|
in §5 (cumulative net profit, by quarter, from the Opening Date) — retained at the
|
||||||
|
principal office as required by Indiana law.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 7. Capital Contributions and Additional Distributions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Capital contributions:** The Parent Company may contribute additional capital to
|
||||||
|
the Company as needed; contributions are recorded in the Company's books against
|
||||||
|
its capital account. Kiowa is not required or expected to make cash contributions.
|
||||||
|
- **Distributions:** Subject to §5.4, distributions of available profits are made pro
|
||||||
|
rata to the Members' respective Membership Interests, at the times and amounts the
|
||||||
|
Parent Company determines under §4, subject to the Company's financial obligations
|
||||||
|
and applicable law (the Company may not make a distribution that would render it
|
||||||
|
unable to pay its debts as they come due).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 8. Tax Treatment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With two Members, the Company is, by default, treated as a **partnership** for U.S.
|
||||||
|
federal income tax purposes; each Member reports their share of income and expense
|
||||||
|
via a Schedule K-1. Because the Parent Company is itself a multi-member LLC taxed as
|
||||||
|
a partnership, this creates a **tiered partnership structure** requiring coordination
|
||||||
|
between the Company's and the Parent Company's returns.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — CPA/attorney review: (1) confirm Kiowa's interest is structured and
|
||||||
|
documented as a profits interest under Rev. Proc. 93-27/2001-43, not a capital
|
||||||
|
interest, to avoid immediate taxable income to her on grant; (2) confirm whether
|
||||||
|
Kiowa should file a protective Section 83(b) election within 30 days of the Effective
|
||||||
|
Date given the forfeiture condition in §5.3 — this is a hard IRS deadline; (3) confirm
|
||||||
|
tiered-partnership filing mechanics between this Company and the Parent Company; (4) a
|
||||||
|
Form 1065 will be required for this Company.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **EIN:** `[Company EIN — obtain from the IRS once Articles of Organization are filed]`
|
||||||
|
- **Fiscal year:** `[Fiscal year — typically the calendar year]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 9. Liability and Indemnification
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To the fullest extent permitted by Indiana law:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No Member shall be **personally liable** for the debts, obligations, or
|
||||||
|
liabilities of the Company solely by reason of being a member; and
|
||||||
|
- The Company shall **indemnify and hold harmless** each Member (and any authorized
|
||||||
|
manager or agent) against claims, losses, and expenses arising from the good-faith
|
||||||
|
management of the Company within the scope of authority granted under this
|
||||||
|
Agreement, except for acts of fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith, or acts taken
|
||||||
|
outside that authority.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: confirm indemnification scope, especially given the
|
||||||
|
Company's operating (not passive-holding) risk profile.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 10. Insurance, Licensing, and Staffing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Given the Company's mobile food-service operations, the following are required
|
||||||
|
before operations begin (see `../requirements.md` for current cost estimates and
|
||||||
|
status):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Workers' Compensation** — mandatory under Indiana law from employee #1, if the
|
||||||
|
direct-hire staffing model is used.
|
||||||
|
- **General Liability** — required for the mobile food vendor permit.
|
||||||
|
- **Commercial Auto** — required for the truck; a personal auto policy will not cover
|
||||||
|
commercial use.
|
||||||
|
- **Mobile food vendor / health department permit** — required from South Bend /
|
||||||
|
St. Joseph County before operating.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Staffing model:** Direct W-2 hire — 1 full-time cook/manager ($24/hr) and 2
|
||||||
|
part-time crew members ($12/hr, 25 hrs/wk each). Total loaded monthly labor:
|
||||||
|
approximately $7,800.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 11. Minimum Operating Requirements & Financial Targets
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company shall operate a minimum of **288 days per calendar year** (6 days per
|
||||||
|
week, 48 weeks), accounting for up to 4 weeks of planned downtime due to weather,
|
||||||
|
maintenance, holidays, or unforeseen events.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 11.1 Investment & Loan Repayment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Total initial investment:** $50,000 (contributed by the Parent Company)
|
||||||
|
- **Repayment target:** Full repayment of invested capital within **24 months** of
|
||||||
|
the Opening Date
|
||||||
|
- **Required pre-tax annual profit (to meet repayment after taxes):** $38,462/yr
|
||||||
|
(~$3,205/mo at the Parent Company's 75% share, grossed up for ~35% combined
|
||||||
|
federal, state, and self-employment taxes)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 11.2 Monthly Financial Obligations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company's fixed monthly costs, payable regardless of revenue:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Item | Monthly Cost |
|
||||||
|
|------|-------------|
|
||||||
|
| Labor (loaded — cook + 2 PT crew + employer taxes) | $7,800 |
|
||||||
|
| Truck payment (48mo @ ~8%) | $854 |
|
||||||
|
| Workers' Compensation insurance | $150 |
|
||||||
|
| General Liability insurance | $42 |
|
||||||

|
### 11.3 Revenue Targets
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Assuming 30% food cost and 288 operating days per year:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Metric | Target |
|
||||||
|
|--------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| **Breakeven revenue (annual)** | $182,640 ($15,220/mo) |
|
||||||
|
| **Revenue to meet 2-year payback** | $232,641/yr ($808/operating day) |
|
||||||
|
| **Minimum daily revenue target** | $808/day |
|
||||||
|
| **At $14/plate** | **58 customers/day** |
|
||||||
|
| **At $15/plate** | 54 customers/day |
|
||||||
|
| **At $12/plate** | 68 customers/day |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 11.4 Reporting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company shall maintain monthly records sufficient to track:
|
||||||
|
- Total operating days vs. the 288-day minimum
|
||||||
|
- Daily revenue and customer count
|
||||||
|
- Cumulative net profit vs. the invested capital repayment schedule
|
||||||
|
- Food cost percentage (target: ≤30% of revenue)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These records support the vesting milestones in §5 and are available to both Members
|
||||||
|
upon request.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 12. Transfer of Membership Interest
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Economic vs. management rights.** A Member may assign, pledge, or transfer the
|
||||||
|
economic rights (right to distributions/profits) in all or part of their Membership
|
||||||
|
Interest at that Member's discretion, without that alone making the transferee a
|
||||||
|
member.
|
||||||
|
- **Admission as a member.** A transferee is admitted as a member — with voting and
|
||||||
|
management rights, not just economic rights — only upon amendment of this Agreement
|
||||||
|
under §12.
|
||||||
|
- **Repurchase right.** The Parent Company's repurchase right over Kiowa's unvested
|
||||||
|
tranche under §5.3 is not a general transfer restriction — it applies only in the
|
||||||
|
specific forfeiture circumstance described there.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: consider whether a right of first refusal should apply to
|
||||||
|
either Member's Membership Interest before any transfer to a third party is
|
||||||
|
attempted.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 13. Amendments
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement may be amended only by a **written instrument signed by all Members**.
|
||||||
|
`[TODO — attorney review: given the Parent Company holds a voting majority (85%),
|
||||||
|
consider whether any amendment that would change Kiowa's Membership Interest, the §5
|
||||||
|
vesting/forfeiture terms, or her distribution rights should specifically require
|
||||||
|
Kiowa's consent, even though general amendments could otherwise be read to need only
|
||||||
|
majority approval.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 14. Dissolution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Company shall continue in perpetuity unless dissolved by:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The written election of Members holding a majority of the Membership Interests; or
|
||||||
|
- Operation of Indiana law.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Upon dissolution, the Company's assets shall be applied first to creditors, then
|
||||||
|
distributed to the Members pro rata in proportion to their (then-vested) Membership
|
||||||
|
Interests, after which Articles of Dissolution shall be filed with the Indiana
|
||||||
|
Secretary of State.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 14. Governing Law and Severability
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
|
||||||
|
**State of Indiana**. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the
|
||||||
|
remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 15. Definitions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **"Company"** — Foodtruck1 LLC.
|
||||||
|
- **"Parent Company"** — SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC.
|
||||||
|
- **"Kiowa"** — `Kiowa Scott`, the Company's second Member.

# Food Truck #1 — Requirements & Planning
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Entity:** subsidiary of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC — **but unlike the other
|
||||||
|
subsidiaries, Holdings is NOT the sole member here.** Foodtruck1 LLC will have two
|
||||||
|
Members:
|
||||||
|
- **SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC** — 85%, holding Sam's ownership stake (keeps
|
||||||
|
Sam's interest inside the liability/succession structure described in
|
||||||
|
[`../00-sns-holding/00-sns-holding.md`](../00-sns-holding/00-sns-holding.md))
|
||||||
|
- **Kiowa** — 15%, granted for $0 cash under
|
||||||
|
[`../00-sns-holding/docs/kiowa-equity-framework.md`](../00-sns-holding/docs/kiowa-equity-framework.md),
|
||||||
|
vesting quarterly over 12 months from Foodtruck1's Opening Date, contingent on
|
||||||
|
cumulative net profit reaching 2x Sam's invested capital in Foodtruck1 by month 12
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This does **not** change Holdings' own cap table — Sam remains the sole owner of
|
||||||
|
SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC itself (see `../00-sns-holding/docs/operating-agreement.md`).
|
||||||
|
The two-member structure applies only at the Foodtruck1 subsidiary level.
|
||||||
|
Draft operating agreement: [`docs/operating-agreement.md`](./docs/operating-agreement.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`[TODO: fill in the remaining brackets in that agreement — entity legal name, EIN,
|
||||||
|
registered agent, day-to-day manager, staffing model — and record the actual Opening
|
||||||
|
Date and Sam's total invested capital here once known, since both drive the vesting
|
||||||
|
framework's math. Then route it through LegalShield for review before signing.]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Owner role:** Sam (via Holdings, 85%) and Kiowa (15%, vesting) co-own the truck;
|
||||||
|
day-to-day running (routes, customers) is not done by Sam.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Staffing Model — decision pending
|
||||||
|
Two options discussed, not yet chosen:
|
||||||
|
- **Lease/License model** — truck leased to an independent operator (their own
|
||||||
|
business entity) for flat rent or % of revenue. Operator hires/manages their own
|
||||||
|
staff; no W-2/1099 question for the subsidiary at all. Cleanest for liability and
|
||||||
|
avoids employer obligations entirely.
|
||||||
|
- **Direct W-2 hire model** — subsidiary hires ~3 employees directly (cooks/crew).
|
||||||
|
Food-truck crew doing the core work almost certainly must be **W-2, not 1099**
|
||||||
|
(behavioral + financial control tests both point to employee status).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Whichever model is chosen changes everything below — the cost estimates in this doc
|
||||||
|
assume the **direct W-2 hire model** (3 employees).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Software / Ops Cost Estimates
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Item | Estimate | Notes |
|
||||||
|
|---|---:|---|
|
||||||
|
| **Gusto** (payroll) | **$80/mo** (high end) | Covers withholding calc, federal/state tax deposits & filings, new-hire reporting, year-end W-2s. Actual quote for 3 employees on the Plus tier runs ~$80–116/mo; using $80 as the planning number. |
|
||||||
|
| **ERPNext hosting** (Frappe Cloud) | **$20/mo** (confirmed) | Decision: **Frappe Cloud "Servers" plan** (shared VM, dedicated bench) instead of self-hosting on AWS. Cheaper than the $44/mo self-hosted AWS Lightsail 8GB option calculated earlier, and Frappe manages patching/backups/snapshots instead of us. Plenty for our light (1–3 user) usage. |
|
||||||
|
| **Total planning estimate** | **$100/mo** | Software/ops line only — excludes wages, employer payroll tax match, workers' comp premium, and any insurance/permits (see Outstanding Items below). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Mandatory Insurance (fact-checked)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Coverage | Mandatory? | Est. Cost | Notes |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---:|---|
|
||||||
|
| **Workers' Compensation** | **Yes — Indiana law, no employee-count exemption.** Required from employee #1. Penalties for skipping: up to $50/day fine, plus a misdemeanor (up to 1 yr jail / $5,000 fine). | **~$75–150/mo** | Food-service class code rate ~$1.00–4.50 per $100 payroll nationally; exact number depends on actual wages once set. |
|
||||||
|
| **General Liability** | **Functionally yes** — not a blanket state law, but every mobile food vendor permit requires proof of GL (typically $1M/occurrence, $2M aggregate, city/county named as additional insured) before the permit is issued. | **~$42/mo (~$500/yr)** | Confirm exact limit with South Bend / St. Joseph County health dept when applying for the permit. |
|
||||||
|
| **Commercial Auto** | **Yes** — Indiana requires liability coverage on any vehicle on public roads, and a personal auto policy typically **excludes commercial use**, so the truck needs its own commercial policy. | **~$170/mo (~$2,041/yr)** | Bundled GL + commercial auto + equipment/build-out coverage commonly runs **$300–700/mo** total industry-wide — treat the two lines above as a floor. |
|
||||||
|
| **Health insurance (ACA employer mandate)** | **No** — mandate only applies at 50+ full-time-equivalent employees. Not a factor at 3 employees. | $0 | Common misconception; explicitly not required at this size. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Revised planning total, insurance included:** ~$80 (Gusto) + $20 (Frappe Cloud) + ~$75–150 (workers' comp) + ~$42 (GL) + ~$170 (commercial auto) ≈ **$390–460/mo**, before wages, the employer FICA match, and SUTA.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Outstanding Items (not yet priced/decided)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Confirm staffing model (lease vs. W-2) before finalizing payroll requirements
|
||||||
|
- [x] Workers' compensation insurance — confirmed mandatory, ballpark cost above; get real quote once wages are set
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Mobile food vendor permit / health department licensing — confirm which entity holds it, and exact GL limit required by South Bend / St. Joseph County
|
||||||
|
- [x] Commercial auto insurance for the truck — confirmed mandatory, ballpark cost above
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Employer payroll tax match (~7.65% FICA) + Indiana SUTA — scales with actual wages, not a fixed cost
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Lease/License Agreement or W-2 onboarding paperwork (W-4, WH-4, I-9) — draft with LegalShield once model is chosen

# SnS Properties LLC
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Parent:** SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC (sole member)
|
||||||
|
**Focus:** Real estate holdings — warehouse space, rental properties
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Subsidiaries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Entity | Purpose |
|
||||||
|
|--------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| Warehouse Property LLC | Commercial/industrial space (potential commissary, storage) |
|
||||||
|
| Rental Property LLC | Residential or commercial rental income |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Status
|
||||||
|
Structure planned. Form when acquiring first property. Properties lease to sibling
|
||||||
|
operating entities (e.g., Hospitality Group leases commissary space from Properties).
|
||||||
|
This keeps real estate assets insulated from operating liability.

## Decisions Locked
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Decision | Choice | Replaces | Reason |
|
||||||
|
|----------|--------|----------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| Perimeter firewall | **OPNsense** | OpenWRT (for racks/client sites) | Enterprise GUI, built-in Suricata IDS/IPS, CARP HA, traffic shaping. OpenWRT stays only for embedded APs. |
|
||||||
|
| Client/remote connectivity | **OpenZiti** | OpenVPN | OpenVPN is too slow. OpenZiti = zero-trust, no open ports, per-service access, faster (peer-to-peer). |
|
||||||
|
| Network Access Control | **PacketFence** | Nothing (new layer) | 802.1X, captive portal, device profiling, BYOD enforcement, rogue device isolation. |
|
||||||
|
| Mesh (personal/homelab) | **NetBird** (keep) | — | Already working. Not for client delivery — that's OpenZiti. |
|
||||||
|
| LLM API routing | **OpenRouter** | — | API key: sk-or-v1-607da... (free tier, 4000 token cap per request unless credits added) |

### Removed / Not Using
|

|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Reason |
|
||||||
|
|------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| ~~OpenVPN~~ | Too slow. Replaced by OpenZiti. |
|
||||||
|
| ~~ZeroTier~~ (for clients) | Network-level access (full LAN) instead of service-level. Keep NetBird for personal homelab only. |
|
||||||
|
| ~~OpenWRT~~ | Not using at all. OPNsense covers firewall/routing; no embedded router flashing. |
|
||||||
|
| ~~OpenProject~~ | Tested on pve2 (LXC 215) — didn't like it. Destroyed. |
|
||||||
|
| ~~OpenSearch~~ (standalone) | Tested on pve2 (LXC 216) — using Graylog instead (includes OpenSearch under the hood + better UI/SIEM). |

## Network Switching — MikroTik (No Licensing)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Decision:** MikroTik CRS series. Zero license fees forever. RouterOS included with hardware.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Why MikroTik
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- $0 licensing — ever. RouterOS included, free upgrades.
|
||||||
|
- Full L2/L3 switching + routing in one device
|
||||||
|
- REST API (RouterOS 7+) + native API (port 8728)
|
||||||
|
- Full Ansible support (`community.routeros` collection)
|
||||||
|
- Full Python support (`librouteros`, `routeros-api`, or plain REST)
|
||||||
|
- PacketFence compatible (SNMP + RADIUS/802.1X)
|
||||||
|
- Cheapest enterprise-grade option (~$130-500 vs Cisco $1000+)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Suggested Rack Layout
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Rack | Switch | Model | Role |
|
||||||
|
|------|--------|-------|------|
|
||||||
|
| Rack 1 | **CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+** | 48× 1G + 4× SFP+ 10G + 2× QSFP+ 40G | Core/distribution |
|
||||||
|
| Rack 2 | **CRS326-24G-2S+** | 24× 1G + 2× SFP+ 10G | Client services |
|
||||||
|
| Rack 3 | **CRS326-24G-2S+** | 24× 1G + 2× SFP+ 10G | Lab/security |
|
||||||
|
| Inter-rack | 10G SFP+ DAC cables | Between switches | Backbone |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Total hardware cost: ~$500-700** (Cisco equivalent: $5,000+)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Automation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Ansible:**
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
ansible-galaxy collection install community.routeros
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Modules: api, api_modify, api_info, api_facts, command
|
||||||
|
- community.routeros.api:
|
||||||
|
hostname: 192.168.122.10
|
||||||
|
path: interface bridge vlan
|
||||||
|
add:
|
||||||
|
bridge: bridge1
|
||||||
|
vlan-ids: 100
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Python (REST API — RouterOS 7+):**
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
import requests
|
||||||
|
r = requests.get('https://switch-ip/rest/interface',
|
||||||
|
auth=('admin', 'password'), verify=False)
|
||||||
|
print(r.json())
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Python (native API):**
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
import routeros_api
|
||||||
|
connection = routeros_api.RouterOsApiPool('switch-ip',
|
||||||
|
username='admin', password='password', plaintext_login=True)
|
||||||
|
api = connection.get_api()
|
||||||
|
interfaces = api.get_resource('/interface')
|
||||||
|
for iface in interfaces.get():
|
||||||
|
print(iface['name'])
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Integration With Stack
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Integration |
|
||||||
|
|------|-------------|
|
||||||
|
| Ansible | `community.routeros` — provision, configure, update from code |
|
||||||
|
| OpenTofu | Triggers Ansible post-provision (switch auto-configures on boot) |
|
||||||
|
| PacketFence | RADIUS + SNMP for 802.1X NAC (officially supported) |
|
||||||
|
| Graylog | Syslog receiver (point switch logging at Graylog) |
|
||||||
|
| OpenTelemetry | SNMP receiver collects switch metrics |
|
||||||
|
| Python | REST API or native API for custom scripts/monitoring |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Avoid (licensing traps)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Brand | Why Not |
|
||||||
|
|-------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| Cisco (Catalyst/Nexus) | SmartNet + DNA licenses + per-feature licensing |
|
||||||
|
| Aruba/HPE | Pushing cloud subscriptions (Aruba Central) |
|
||||||
|
| Meraki | Hardware bricks if license expires |
|
||||||
|
| Juniper (Mist) | Cloud-AI management is subscription-based |
|
||||||

# AGENT: Blueprint Layout Extractor
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Purpose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Takes a UI screenshot/mockup image and outputs a **structural blueprint document** — categorized placeholders describing WHAT goes in each position, not the actual values shown. The output is a reusable template that can be filled with different data for different deployments.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Agent Identity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Name:** Blueprint Extractor
|
||||||
|
**Input:** One UI screenshot/mockup image
|
||||||
|
**Output:** A structured markdown document with positional placeholders in `[CATEGORY-NAME]` format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Instructions for the Agent
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### WHAT TO DO
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Scan the image top-to-bottom, left-to-right**
|
||||||
|
2. **Identify the grid/layout structure** — how many columns, rows, panels
|
||||||
|
3. **For each panel, list every visual element** — but describe its PURPOSE, not its content
|
||||||
|
4. **Use `[PLACEHOLDER-NAME]` format** for every element
|
||||||
|
5. **For graphics/icons/images, DESCRIBE what the graphic represents and its visual behavior** (e.g., "circular gauge with animated sweep", "3D isometric cube with scan lines")
|
||||||
|
6. **Include a text-based grid diagram** at the end showing spatial relationships
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### WHAT NOT TO DO
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- DO NOT write the actual text/values shown in the image
|
||||||
|
- DO NOT describe colors unless the color IS the category (e.g., [STATUS-COLOR-INDICATOR])
|
||||||
|
- DO NOT generate code
|
||||||
|
- DO NOT interpret data — describe the container, not the contents
|
||||||
|
- DO NOT skip graphics — describe what the graphic IS and what it COMMUNICATES
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### NAMING CONVENTION
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Format: `[PANEL-CONTEXT-ELEMENT]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Examples:
|
||||||
|
- `[BRAND-LOGO]` — not "SnS Secure logo"
|
||||||
|
- `[NETWORK-TRAFFIC-GRAPH]` — not "line chart showing 5.42 Gbps"
|
||||||
|
- `[VAULT-STATUS-GRAPHIC]` — not "green circle with lock icon"
|
||||||
|
- `[FLEET-VEHICLE-CARD]` — not "picture of armored SUV"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### GRAPHIC/IMAGE ELEMENTS — REQUIRED FIELDS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When a graphic, icon, chart, or visual element is encountered:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|

|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### PANEL STRUCTURE FORMAT

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Existing Open-Source Tools (reference / potential integration)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These don't do what this agent does, but could feed INTO it:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Repo | What it provides |
|
||||||
|
|------|------|-----------------|
|
||||||
|
| **ui-screenshot-to-prompt** | https://github.com/s-smits/ui-screenshot-to-prompt | Grid slicing + OCR + region descriptions. Could pre-segment the image into regions before this agent categorizes them. |
|
||||||
|
| **layout-detector-mcp** | https://github.com/katlis/layout-detector-mcp | MCP server — finds asset positions, detects layout patterns (radial/grid/stacked/sidebar). Returns JSON with coordinates. Could provide the spatial structure this agent then labels. |
|
||||||
|
| **UIED** | https://github.com/MulongXie/UIED | CV-based UI element detection. Classifies elements (button, text, image, input) and exports bounding boxes as JSON. Could identify element TYPES before this agent assigns PURPOSE. |
|
||||||
|
| **ScreenCoder** | https://github.com/leigest519/ScreenCoder | Screenshot → HTML/CSS. Understands layout structure to generate code — internal representation could be repurposed for blueprint extraction. |
|
||||||
|
| **clearshot** | https://github.com/udayanwalvekar/clearshot | "Structured screenshot intelligence for AI coding tools." Provides structured data from screenshots. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Pipeline concept (if building a tool):
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
[Screenshot] → UIED (detect elements) → layout-detector (spatial relationships) → THIS AGENT (semantic categorization) → [Blueprint.md]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How to Use This Agent (with any AI coding assistant)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option 1 — Paste as a system prompt
|
||||||
|
Copy the "Instructions for the Agent" section into your AI assistant's context, then provide the screenshot image.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option 2 — As a Kiro skill
|
||||||
|
Place this file at `.kiro/skills/blueprint-extractor/SKILL.md` and invoke with:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
/blueprint-extractor [attach image]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option 3 — As a reusable prompt template
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
You are a Blueprint Layout Extractor. I will give you a UI screenshot.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Your job: output a structural blueprint document listing every visual element
|
||||||
|
as a [CATEGORY-PLACEHOLDER], describing WHAT goes in each position — NOT the
|
||||||
|
actual values shown.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For graphics/images: describe the graphic TYPE, what it REPRESENTS, its
|
||||||
|
BEHAVIOR (static/animated), and what it COMMUNICATES to the operator.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Format: top-to-bottom, left-to-right, panel-by-panel, with an ASCII grid
|
||||||
|
summary at the end.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
DO NOT write the actual text values. DO NOT generate code. DO NOT skip
|
||||||
|
graphics — describe them.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No existing open-source tool does this exact task (semantic placeholder extraction from UI mockups)
|
||||||
|
- The closest is `ui-screenshot-to-prompt` but it outputs implementation briefs, not reusable templates
|
||||||
|
- This is fundamentally a **vision model task** (needs multimodal AI like Claude, GPT-4V, Gemini) — not solvable with pure CV alone because it requires understanding PURPOSE not just PIXELS
|
||||||
|
- Could be productized as an MCP server that accepts an image and returns the blueprint markdown

## Language Decision: Go vs Rust
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Recommendation: **Rust**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Factor | Go | Rust | Winner |
|
||||||
|
|--------|-----|------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| Raw performance | Fast (GC pauses) | Fastest (no GC, zero-cost abstractions) | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| TUI framework | Bubble Tea (mature, superfile uses it) | Ratatui (mature, very active, dashboard-focused) | Tie |
|
||||||
|
| Memory safety | GC-managed | Compile-time guaranteed, no runtime | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| Crypto libraries | Good (`crypto/` stdlib) | Excellent (`ring`, `rustls`, RustCrypto) | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| Binary security | Easy to decompile (reflection, strings) | Hard to reverse-engineer (no runtime, stripped binary = opaque) | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| Build time | Fast (seconds) | Slow (minutes for full rebuild) | Go |
|
||||||
|
| Hiring/contributors | Easier to find Go devs | Harder, but growing | Go |
|
||||||
|
| Anti-tamper | Harder to protect (runtime introspection) | Easier (static binary, no reflection) | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| Browser/WASM | Possible | First-class WASM support | Rust |
|
||||||
|
| Ecosystem for security tools | Good | Excellent (lots of security tooling in Rust) | Rust |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Why Rust wins for THIS product:**
|
||||||
|
1. The anti-theft requirement demands a binary that's hard to reverse-engineer. Rust's stripped static binaries are significantly harder to decompile than Go binaries (which embed type info and are trivially disassembled with `go tool objdump`).
|
||||||
|
2. Performance-critical real-time rendering of terminal graphics with zero GC pauses.
|
||||||
|
3. WASM compilation for the browser extension is first-class in Rust.
|
||||||
|
4. The security/crypto ecosystem in Rust (`ring`, `rustls`, `sodiumoxide`, `age`) is battle-tested.
|
||||||
|
5. Ratatui + `ratatui-image` gives us dashboards + inline graphics in one crate.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**The trade-off:** slower development velocity (Rust is harder to write). Budget ~2x the dev time vs Go for the same feature set.

### Technical Implementation Details
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Requirement | How |
|
||||||
|
|-------------|-----|
|
||||||
|
| Fedora-only | Check `/etc/os-release` for `ID=fedora`. Also verify `rpm -q fedora-release` exists. |
|
||||||
|
| Hardware binding | Combine: `/sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid` + `/sys/class/net/*/address` + disk serial (`/sys/block/*/device/serial`) + TPM endorsement key (if available). HMAC with embedded secret. |
|
||||||
|
| License blob | Encrypted file containing the expected machine hash + expiry date + customer ID. Signed with Ed25519. |
|
||||||
|
| Theft reporting | POST to a pre-configured public endpoint (could be a GitHub Gist API, a Forgejo webhook, or an S3-presigned URL). Data: IP (via external service), machine info, timestamp. |
|
||||||
|
| Self-destruct | `shred -vfz -n 3` on all SCC files → `rm -rf` the install dir → remove systemd units → overwrite with zeros. |
|
||||||
|
| Anti-debug | Detect ptrace attachment, refuse to run under strace/gdb. Check `/proc/self/status` TracerPid. |
|
||||||
|
| Binary obfuscation | Strip symbols, use `#[no_mangle]` sparingly, embed encrypted strings (decrypt at runtime only). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Legal Note
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Self-destruct + theft reporting is legally defensible if:
|
||||||
|
- The EULA explicitly states this behavior
|
||||||
|
- The "public repo" report does NOT include passwords or personal data — only machine identifiers and IP
|
||||||
|
- The software clearly belongs to you (commercial license, not GPL)
|
||||||
|
- Consider using a **proprietary license with source-available inspection** (like SSPL or BSL) so customers can audit but not redistribute
|
||||||

## Fedora Server Requirement — Enforcement
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Check | Method | Bypass difficulty |
|
||||||
|
|-------|--------|-------------------|
|
||||||
|
| OS identity | `/etc/os-release` `ID=fedora` | Easy to spoof (edit file) |
|
||||||
|
| Package manager | `rpm --eval '%{fedora}'` returns version | Medium (need full rpm DB) |
|
||||||
|
| SELinux | `getenforce` = Enforcing (Fedora ships SELinux) | Medium |
|
||||||
|
| DNF/systemd | `/usr/bin/dnf` exists + `systemctl` PID 1 | Medium |
|
||||||
|
| Kernel string | `uname -r` contains `.fc` suffix | Easy to spoof |
|
||||||
|
| **Combined hash** | Hash ALL of the above together | Hard to spoof all at once |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Recommendation:** Don't rely on any single check. Combine 5+ signals into a composite score. If <3 pass, trigger self-destruct. This makes casual piracy very hard without running actual Fedora.

## What It Will Take to Build
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
| Small team (2-3 Rust devs) | 6-9 months | 2-3 people |
|
||||||
|
| With AI-accelerated development | 8-12 months | 1 person + AI pair |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Cost Estimate (Solo + AI)

|
## Risk Assessment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
|
||||||
|
|------|-----------|--------|-----------|
|
||||||
|
| Rust learning curve slows development | High | Medium | Use AI pair programming; start with working Ratatui examples |
|
||||||
|
| Self-destruct triggers falsely (hardware change) | Medium | High | Grace period + re-activation flow; don't wipe on first failure |
|
||||||
|
| Terminal graphics don't look as good as mockups | Medium | Medium | Require Kitty/Ghostty; use Sixel for raster; accept TUI limits |
|
||||||
|
| Browser extension performance (WASM overhead) | Medium | Low | Keep browser as secondary; TUI is primary |
|
||||||
|
| Fedora check bypassed by sophisticated attacker | Low | Medium | Combine 5+ signals; TPM binding is hardest to fake |
|
||||||
|
| OpenBao/ZeroTier API changes break integration | Low | Low | Pin versions; abstract behind interfaces |

## Decision Points (Need Your Input)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **License model:** Proprietary? Source-available (BSL)? Per-seat? Per-server? Proprietary ( Not for sale)
|
||||||
|
2. **Theft report endpoint:** Public GitHub Gist? Private webhook? Forgejo repo? Public github
|
||||||
|
3. **Browser extension:** Chrome-only? Firefox too? Both? cHROME ONLY
|
||||||
|
4. **Fleet module:** Real GPS hardware integration? Or IP-based/software-defined "fleet"?
|
||||||
|
5. **First module to build:** Which SCC tab ships first as MVP? *Vault tab is first.
|
||||||
|
6. **Naming:** Is "SCC" the product name, or is there a market-facing brand? This will not be marketed it s form my company SnS network solutions (a PRODUCTT of secure devision)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Bottom Line
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is buildable. It's a **12-month solo project** (with AI acceleration) or a **6-month team effort**. The hardest parts are:
|
||||||
|
1. The anti-theft hardware binding (must be robust but not false-positive prone)
|
||||||
|
2. Terminal 3D graphics (possible with Kitty protocol + Sixel, but limited vs the mockup's visual richness)
|
||||||
|
3. The browser extension (WASM + WebSocket bridge is non-trivial)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The open-source tooling exists for every major component. The novel code is the **integration layer** (wiring OpenBao + ZeroTier + Graphify + ratatui into a cohesive product) and the **anti-theft system** (no existing OSS does this in the way you described).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Rust is the right choice because: hardest to reverse-engineer, fastest execution, best crypto ecosystem, first-class WASM for browser extension, and memory safety without a garbage collector.

# Neural Security Graph — Research & Tooling
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Product Context — SnS Secure Command Center (SCC)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The SCC is a **military/defense-grade security operations platform** with 5 modules:
|
||||||
|
- **Cyber Ops** — main dashboard: terminal CLI, network traffic, tactical map, encryption status, fleet overview, threat level
|
||||||
|
- **Network Monitor** — real-time traffic, segment topology, top talkers, protocol distribution, firewall rule hits, security alerts
|
||||||
|
- **Tactical Fleet** — vehicle tracking (armored transport, executive protection), GPS map, mission/fuel/maintenance status
|
||||||
|
- **Threat Intel** — global threat landscape, IOCs, CVE tracking, threat actors, campaign progress, intelligence feeds
|
||||||
|
- **Encrypted Vault** — classified document storage, key rotation, zero-trust data flow pipeline, access control, integrity monitoring
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Visual language**: terminal-green on black, monospace fonts, panel-based layout, real-time live data, military C2 aesthetic.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The **Neural Security Graph** is a proposed addition/layer — a live force-directed visualization where infrastructure nodes pulse like neurons when accessed, and the graph grows organically as new connections form.
|
||||||

## Key Open-Source Tooling
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Graphify — Knowledge Graph Engine (graph data layer)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| | |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| **Repo** | https://github.com/Graphify-Labs/graphify |
|
||||||
|
| **What it does** | Turns code, configs, docs, and infra-as-code into a queryable knowledge graph (JSON) |
|
||||||
|
| **Install** | `uv tool install graphifyy` |
|
||||||
|
| **Relevant extras** | `graphifyy[mcp]` (MCP server), `graphifyy[terraform]` (HCL/Terraform extraction) |
|
||||||
|
| **License** | Open source (MIT) |
|
||||||
|
| **Key feature** | Local-first AST parsing via tree-sitter — code never leaves the machine |
|
||||||
|
| **Language** | Python |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Role in SCC:** Builds the static graph structure from infra configs (nftables, netplan, cloud-init, docker-compose, Proxmox configs). This is the "brain anatomy" — the connections that exist. Queryable via MCP server or CLI.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Useful commands:**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
graphify extract ./infra/ --code-only # local, no API needed
|
||||||
|
graphify query "what connects br0 to the internet"
|
||||||
|
graphify path "ws-nat" "wlp2s0"
|
||||||
|
graphify watch ./dotfiles # auto-rebuild on change
|
||||||
|
python -m graphify.serve graph.json --transport http --port 8080 --api-key "$SECRET"
|

### 2. Superfile — Terminal File Manager (TUI framework reference)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| | |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| **Repo** | https://github.com/yorukot/superfile |
|
||||||
|
| **Website** | https://superfile.dev |
|
||||||
|
| **What it does** | Modern, fancy terminal file manager with multi-panel layout |
|
||||||
|
| **Install** | `bash -c "$(curl -sLo- https://superfile.dev/install.sh)"` |
|
||||||
|
| **License** | MIT |
|
||||||
|
| **Language** | Go (built on [Bubble Tea](https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea) TUI framework) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Features relevant to SCC:**
|
||||||
|
- **Multi-panel split view** — multiple directory panes side-by-side (maps to SCC's panel-based layout)
|
||||||
|
- **Keyboard-driven navigation** — vim-like keybindings (matches the terminal-operator UX of SCC)
|
||||||
|
- **20+ built-in themes** — Catppuccin, Nord, Tokyo Night, Dracula, Gruvbox (SCC uses its own dark/green military theme)
|
||||||
|
- **Plugin system** — extensible with git status, system monitoring, custom commands
|
||||||
|
- **Fuzzy search** — quick file/node lookup
|
||||||
|
- **Image preview** — inline terminal rendering
|
||||||
|
- **Bulk operations** — multi-select, batch actions
|
||||||
|
- **Customizable hotkeys** — every key remappable
|
||||||
|
- **Built on Bubble Tea** — the Go TUI framework (same tech could power a terminal-native SCC)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Role in SCC:** Superfile's architecture is a **direct reference for building the Encrypted Vault module as a TUI**. Its multi-panel, theme-able, plugin-extensible design is exactly what an operator terminal for classified file management needs. The Bubble Tea framework underneath is the same one we'd use to build a terminal-native version of the full SCC dashboard.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Specifically maps to SCC modules:**
|
||||||
|
| Superfile feature | SCC module it maps to |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| Multi-panel file browsing | Encrypted Vault (browse classified docs across panels) |
|
||||||
|
| Plugin system (git status, sys monitor) | Cyber Ops (live system vitals as plugins) |
|
||||||
|
| Theme engine (green-on-black) | All modules (military C2 aesthetic) |
|
||||||
|
| Fuzzy search | Network Monitor (search nodes/connections), Threat Intel (search IOCs) |
|
||||||
|
| Bulk operations | Fleet management (batch commands to vehicles) |
|
||||||
|
| Keyboard-driven | All modules (operator efficiency, no mouse needed) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

### 3. Bubble Tea — Go TUI Framework (the engine)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| | |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| **Repo** | https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea |
|
||||||
|
| **What it does** | The Elm-architecture TUI framework that powers superfile |
|
||||||
|
| **Ecosystem** | [Lip Gloss](https://github.com/charmbracelet/lipgloss) (styling), [Bubbles](https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles) (components) |
|
||||||
|
| **License** | MIT |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If we build SCC as a terminal-native app (not browser), Bubble Tea + Lip Gloss is the stack. Gives us panels, borders, colors, responsive layouts, and keyboard handling — all in Go with no dependencies.

## Event Sources (the "nerve impulses")
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Source | What it catches | Tool/Command |
|
||||||
|
|--------|----------------|--------------|
|
||||||
|
| File access | Config reads/writes, vault document access | `inotifywait -m -r -e access,open,modify` |
|
||||||
|
| Network connections | New flows through NAT/firewall | `conntrack -E -e NEW` |
|
||||||
|
| SSH sessions | Remote access events | `journalctl -f -t sshd` |
|
||||||
|
| Service state | Start/stop/restart | `journalctl -f` filtered by unit |
|
||||||
|
| Security events | Sensitive file access | `auditd` with custom rules |
|
||||||
|
| Graph changes | New infra relationships | `graphify watch` / `graphify --watch` |
|
||||||
|
| Fleet telemetry | Vehicle GPS, speed, fuel | Custom feed (GPS tracker API) |
|
||||||
|
| Threat feeds | IOCs, CVEs, actor activity | OSINT feeds, honeypots, partner sharing |

## Visualization Approaches
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option A — Browser-based (D3.js force graph + WebSocket)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Best for the **neural firing** effect. Rich animations, glow, particle trails along edges.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Role | Link |
|
||||||
|
|------|------|------|
|
||||||
|
| D3.js (force layout) | Graph physics + rendering | https://github.com/d3/d3-force |
|
||||||
|
| WebSocket API | Real-time event push to browser | Native browser API |
|
||||||
|
| Graphify `graph.html` | Starting point (already force-directed) | Generated by `graphify extract` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Extends Graphify's output with:
|
||||||
|
- WebSocket client receiving live events
|
||||||
|
- SVG glow/pulse animations on node activation (neuron firing)
|
||||||
|
- Edge particle animations (impulse traveling along connection)
|
||||||
|
- Dynamic node/edge insertion (graph grows organically)
|
||||||
|
- Decay: inactive nodes dim, active nodes brighten
|
||||||
|
- Fits into the SCC dashboard as an embedded panel (Network Monitor → Topology Map, or its own tab)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option B — Terminal-native (Bubble Tea / Go)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Same stack as superfile. Pure terminal, no browser. Fits the SCC aesthetic perfectly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Role | Link |
|
||||||
|
|------|------|------|
|
||||||
|
| Bubble Tea | TUI framework (event loop, components) | https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea |
|
||||||
|
| Lip Gloss | Styling (green-on-black, borders, panels) | https://github.com/charmbracelet/lipgloss |
|
||||||
|
| Bubbles | Pre-built components (tables, spinners, viewports) | https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Terminal approach caps at ~50-100 visible nodes but matches the operator terminal UX from the blueprints exactly. Could render a simplified topology map with ANSI color pulses.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option C — Hybrid (terminal panels + embedded browser graph)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The SCC shell is a terminal app (Bubble Tea) with panels for CLI, tables, status. The neural graph is a browser panel served locally (`localhost:8080`) or rendered via Sixel/Kitty graphics protocol for inline terminal display.

## 7 Layers of Digital Security (reference)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Physical Security** — hardware locks, encrypted drives, secure access
|
||||||
|
2. **Network Perimeter** — firewalls, VPN/mesh, NAT, DDoS mitigation
|
||||||
|
3. **Identity & Access Management** — SSO, MFA, least-privilege, scoped tokens
|
||||||
|
4. **Application Security** — input validation, parameterized queries, WAF
|
||||||
|
5. **Data Security** — encryption at rest/transit, tokenization, backup encryption
|
||||||
|
6. **Monitoring & Detection** — logs, SIEM, IDS, anomaly detection
|
||||||
|
7. **Recovery & Resilience** — tested backups, DR runbooks, incident response
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Neural Security Graph serves **Layer 6** but provides visibility into Layers 2–5 by mapping their configurations as queryable relationships. The Encrypted Vault covers **Layer 5**. Threat Intel feeds **Layers 2–4** with actionable intelligence.

## Status
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Define scope: which SCC modules are being built vs. conceptual
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Decide: terminal-native (Bubble Tea/Go) vs. browser (D3/Electron) vs. hybrid
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Install Graphify and build initial graph from infra configs
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Prototype the neural firing visualization
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Map superfile's plugin architecture to Encrypted Vault module
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Integrate event sources (inotify, conntrack, auditd)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] Connect to real security tooling (Wazuh/Suricata as event feeders)
