Whether you’re issuing stock to founders in a newly formed startup, designing a new equity-based compensation plan for your growing company or need assistance administering an existing plan, we can help!
Equity Compensation Plan Design
We work with corporations and LLCs to design equity-based compensation plans that work. Qualified (ISOs) or non qualified (NQSOs) stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), restricted stock, phantom stock or profit interest units in an LLC — we’ll help you determine the best mix to incentivize your team and drive value.
Plan Documentation
We develop a complete document set based on your plan design.
Plan Administration
We provide a full, outsourced plan administration solution, including tracking plan provisions, recording the issuance of all awards, and tracking grants, exercises, cancellations and forfeitures for your plan participants. We use a variety of platforms, including Carta and Shareworks, platforms that can grow with you -- from privately held to publicly traded.
