Equity Acceleration Clause — M&A Protection for Your Equity
In an acquisition, your unvested equity can disappear or vest depending on one clause: acceleration. Single-trigger acceleration means your equity vests if the company is bought (good for you). Double-trigger means it only vests if you're fired after the acquisition (less protection). Our AI flags which type you have and what it means for your exit scenario.
