True, good point.

There is a franchised shoe store in my area whose franchise agreement kept it from selling shoes online. The store ignored this provision, and sold them anyway, building a business that was raking in sales of tens of thousands of dollars a month. Funny thing, the franchiser modified the agreement to officially allow online selling.

So I think you're taking the right approach here. Definitely.

i think the best approach would be to say how much money you want per each % of equity, eg. $10 = 1% and than state how much you want to give away. Thats if you want to give equity away or are you asking for a loan?

cocaine,

No, equity is not profit-sharing. Equity is when the investor actually receives ownership of a portion of the company in return for his or her investment.
