Thank you for posting this! It&#x27;s a brave move and I think other companies should do the same.<p>One question for you: do you have any restrictions on the sale of your stock by employees before the stock is liquid? Specifically, do you have any provisions that say the stock can&#x27;t be sold without board approval before shares are publicly issued on an exchange? I&#x27;ve had friends burned by this in the past....they throw down 5-6 figures to exercise their options, pay the taxes, etc after two years with the company, then find that they can&#x27;t legally sell the shares without board approval, which basically means they can&#x27;t sell until the stock is publicly traded. It&#x27;s been particularly painful in one friend&#x27;s case because he tied up virtually all his liquidity for what he thought was a very temporary basis in exercising the options, and now has no clear timeline to monetization (company&#x27;s last round was B, no IPO in sight).
