Leave the Company Early, You Will Lose Your Shares in the Company or Have to Give Them Up Again. Investors Like to Insist on a Cliff Period . This Cliff is a Period of Time That the Founders Have to Survive Until Vesting – Earning the Business Shares – Begins. For Example: a Clause is Stipulated That Only After One Year (the Cliff) Do the Founders Own a Share in Their Company That Increases Every Month. Another Clause Can Be Accelerated Vesting. This Happens When a Start-up Manages to Make an Exit – a Lucrative Sale – Faster or Founders Can Receive All of Their Shares Before the Vesting Period Expires. Good C Level Contact List Leaver Vs. Bad Leaver: What Does That Mean? If a Founder Leaves His or Her Own Company Early , a Distinction is Made Between Bad and Good Leavers. A Bad Leaver is Thrown Out of His or Her Own Start-up or the Contract is Terminated Because He or She Has Done Something Significantly “bad”. This Could Be, for Example, the Embezzlement of Funds. If a Founder is Ill for a Long Time, Becomes Unable to Work or Dies , He or She is a Good Leaver . In Both Cases, the Contract is Terminated and It is Important to See What to Do With the Shares. In the Case of a Bad Leaver, Investors Usually Impose Sanctions; in the Case of a Good Leaver, a Fair Solution is Sought. The Vesting Case Occurs: What Now? What, When and How Happens Cannot Be Answered in General Terms. The Team of Founders Must Specify, Among Themselves and With the Investors, Exactly in the Clauses What Will Happen if They Leave.
