Richard Wilson: two different endings for a royalty arrangement
Richard described royalty arrangements that ended after a return threshold and others that retained an equity interest.
One version ended entirely
In one example, he said the investor would receive a defined return and then leave the deal. The payment endpoint also ended the investor's involvement in that illustration.
Another version retained participation
He separately described a reduced participation interest remaining after capital had been returned. These examples distinguish the end of royalty payments from the end of every economic interest.
In Richard C. Wilson's words
"then we're out of the deal completely" (Richard C. Wilson, recorded Rainmaker Series module)
How to use this
- Record the event that ends payments in each example.
- Check whether the illustration also leaves a continuing participation.
