Day-to-day decisions are made by [Decision-Making Structure — e.g. the Founder responsible for that area]. Major decisions ([List — e.g. raising funding, issuing new equity, taking on debt above $X]) require [Approval Threshold — e.g. unanimous consent].

Founders agree to first attempt to resolve disagreements directly, then through [Mediation / another agreed process], before pursuing other remedies.
