# MetaDAO: Enter Services Agreement with Organization Technology LLC
|
|
|
|
## Summary & Connections
|
|
|
|
**Proposal 6 (Autocrat v0.3) — create US entity for paying MetaDAO contributors.** Organization Technology LLC as services vehicle. No IP ownership (all MetaDAO LLC). $1.378M annualized burn. Cancellable by DAO with 30-day notice or immediately for material breach. Memo instruction acts as countersignatory.
|
|
|
|
**Outcome:** Passed (2024-09-03).
|
|
|
|
**Connections:**
|
|
- This is the dual-entity structure that enables MetaDAO to operate: Marshall Islands DAO LLC (governance + IP) + US LLC (contributor payments + operations). Evidence for [[futarchy-governed DAOs converge on traditional corporate governance scaffolding for treasury operations because market mechanisms alone cannot provide operational security and legal compliance]]
|
|
- The explicit separation ("entity does not have nor will own any intellectual property") is a structural firewall — contributors are paid through a US entity that can't encumber the DAO's assets
|
|
- $1.378M burn rate is the first public disclosure of MetaDAO's full operational costs. Compare with the $1.38M estimated in [[metadao-fundraise-2]].
|
|
- [[organization-technology-llc]] — the entity created by this proposal

## Full Proposal Text

|

### Type
|
|
Operations Direct Action
|
|
|
|
### Author(s)

Nallok, Proph3t

|
### Overview
|
|
|
|
Four weeks ago, MetaDAO completed its strategic partnership as part of Proposal 19. To support MetaDAO's operations, we have created a US entity as a vehicle for paying MetaDAO contributors.
|
|
|
|
Of note is:
|
|
|
|
- This entity does not have nor will own any intellectual property, all efforts produced are owned by MetaDAO LLC.
|
|
- This entity will be responsible for the costs of services and development and not have authority to encumber MetaDAO LLC.
|
|
|
|
We are creating this proposal with a memo instruction to agree and sign the services agreement, which is legally binding as defined in MetaDAO LLC's operating agreement.
|
|
|
|
If passed this proposal will execute the memo instructions which will act as a countersignatory to the agreement. The first disbursement from MetaDAO LLC to the entity will occur on September 1st, 2024 or when passed, whichever is later.
|
|
|
|
This agreement can be canceled by the DAO with a 30 day notice or immediately through material breach of contract by either party. A 30 day notice and cancellation would need to be executed through a proposal.
|
|
|
|
If any significant material expense is to be assessed or significant changes to the contract are to be made, those shall be put through the governance process of MetaDAO.
|
|
|
|
- The expected annualized burn is $1.378M.
