Equity compensation covers the use of equity-based rewards to reward staff and directors, such as share options, restricted stock, and other incentive schemes, governed by company law and scheme documentation. A solicitor practising in this area drafts, reviews and advises on share schemes, eligibility, vesting, exercise mechanics, dilution, and tax implications, and helps with scheme administration, regulatory and board approvals, and the interaction with employment contracts and corporate governance processes. Practical issues include scheme qualification, disclosures, and ensuring compliance with applicable rule sets.
