John, Lesa, and Tabir form a limited liability company. John contributes 60% of the capital, and Lesa and Tabir each contribute 2%. Nothing is decided about how profits will be divided. John assumes that he will be entitled to 60% of the profits, in accordance with his contribution. Lesa and Tabir, however, assume that the profits will be divided equally. A dispute over the profits arises, and ultimately a court has to decide the issue.
