The Connecticut operating agreement for multi membered LLC’s creates a type of partnership agreement with the entity to protect the owners, or “Members”, and the active participants in the company. The agreement is not required in the State, but is highly recommended to account for any initial contributions provided by the members (if any) and to make sure every person’s role is clear.

The agreement may also work as a company bylaw, stating all the information about the LLC including information provided by the Secretary of State’s office.

• Definition –  (15) “Operating agreement” means any agreement, written or oral, as to the conduct of the business and affairs of a limited liability company, which is binding upon all of the members.
