Assume you can’t kick out investors. And plan accordingly. There are some limited exceptions, especially if you do nonstandard types of convertible debt or only raise a very small amount of capital. But for the most part, you are stuck with your investors forever. In the U.S. and Delaware and California, and under standard VC terms, it’s almost impossible not just to kick investors out — but even to deny them a vote.
