Each point is a seven-day rolling window of complete UTC days; a point is comparable only when at least 100 analyzed posts or comments fall inside it. A day with no analyzed records counts as zero; missing coverage is marked and never shown as zero. The series ends at the latest complete analyzed day — it never extends into the current incomplete day. How attention is measured.

What's interesting is that no one is asking how your equity is structured. Because this defines what's possible and what's not. If I were you, I'd \*\*absolutely\*\* not have any internal conversations or with the board until you talked to an attorney specialzing in corporate law, and developed an exit strategy with their help - who to say to whom when an how. Until you consulted with a corporate law attorney, your "plans" most likely will get you in serious trouble, financially or legally or both.

One important thing to consider, equity conversion. Make sure you talk to an attorney about this. Some governing documents allow you to be bought out at today’s value of the shares. Unless you firmly believe this will end in a liquidation event where you as a founder with equity will still have value, I’d try to negotiate some cash in hand to reduce dilution in the next round and buy your shares out.

If you want an extended exercise window you will need to negotiate with the business. It is not in the company’s interest to extend. If they don’t want to retain you, you likely have limited leverage. If they do want to retain you, then you would likely need to extend your timeline to get an extension. In terms of your original question the majority of attorneys and tax advisers are surprisingly limited in their ability to offer helpful advice, even in the Bay Area. My experience has always been using your own network, particularly other founders / financial operators have the most experience. Former chief of staffs / heads of biz ops are typically very knowledgeable on the ins and outs of equity comp, especially if they have early stage experience.
