"I remember getting an email from Sequoia asking for my personal presence (ie don't send a VP in your place) to some sort vaguely positioned mandatory meeting."

By what mechanism can an investor in a firm, presumably an investor with less than 50% equity, make attendance at a meeting mandatory for the CEO of said firm?

"Mandatory" is a surprisingly vague concept, even when used by people with real power.
