THE PERIMETER / MEETING NOTES

Executive & employee equity

Equity compensation combines employment, investment and tax decisions. Grant value, vested value and cash available after a sale are different numbers. A useful plan begins with the actual award documents and restrictions.

Discussion priority

Clarify the decision, time horizon and constraints.

Questions to explore

  1. What changes if I leave the company before an award vests or an option expires?
  2. What cash and taxes could an exercise require before any sale is possible?
  3. Which restrictions govern an actual sale?
  4. How much of the household’s future depends on this employer?

Bring to the conversation

  • Collect award summaries and plan documents privately.
  • List vesting, expiration and exercise deadlines.
  • Map employer exposure across the household.
  • Confirm trading and tax steps before implementation.

An educational agenda. Review source material and adapt to the client’s circumstances. Professionals should follow their own compliance and recordkeeping procedures before sharing.
