Equity & Stock Option Plans

Legal name of the company adopting the plan.

Your funding stage usually drives the plan structure — for example seed-stage plans often use a 4-year vest with a 1-year cliff (no shares vest until the employee has stayed a full year).

ISO = US tax-favoured employee options. NSO = non-qualified (broader, including contractors). RSU = restricted stock units. SAR = stock appreciation rights. Mixed = combination plan.

How big is the option pool? Give a percentage or a share count — e.g. 10% or 2,000,000 shares (round numbers are fine). Fully-diluted means measured against all shares as if every option and convertible were exercised.

E.g. '4-year vest, 1-year cliff, monthly thereafter' or 'performance-based, milestone vest'. If unsure, leave blank and we will recommend.

If you have an existing plan to amend / restate, upload it here.
