Stock Vesting Agreement Template for Founders and Employees

Every founder and employee grant needs a signed vesting agreement one that holds up when investors' counsel reviews it. This template covers the standard 4-year vesting with a 1-year cliff, company repurchase rights, and single/double-trigger acceleration, so you're not drafting this from scratch or hoping a generic template holds up.

What you get:

• A complete stock vesting agreement template with standard 4-year vesting, 1-year cliff, and monthly vesting schedule built in

• Company repurchase right language for unvested shares upon termination

• Single-trigger and double-trigger acceleration clauses for change-of-control events

• Section 83(b) election language and the 30-day IRS filing deadline spelled out for participants
