2. How will my compensation be structured — a percentage of production/collections, profit share, or a combination?
3. Will any of the purchase price be held back to comply with post-sale employment requirements?
4. Am I willing to work as an employee? Can I step away from the mindset of an owner?
5. What is the philosophy of treatment of the corporate entity?
