A reverse vesting order is a legal agreement that dictates how founders or key executives earn their shares over time.
While shares are issued upfront, the company retains the right to buy back unvested shares if the individual leaves before the reverse vesting schedule is complete.
Key clauses in a reverse vesting agreement include:
TA reverse vesting schedule ensures that founders remain committed to the startup while protecting investors from premature exits.
It prevents inactive founders from holding equity unfairly and helps maintain team stability.
Unlike traditional vesting, where shares are granted over time, reverse vesting provides shares upfront but requires founders to earn them back through continued involvement in the company.
If they leave early, unvested shares are reclaimed by the company.
