Will I be diluted? How can a founder agreement and full-time contract cohabit?












0















I have very basic knowledge regarding startup and company establishment. For the first time of my life I am proposed shares.



The facts:




  • I am going to be co-founder level 1 of a Delaware corp startup/company.

  • The company is in funding process and got only small percentage of the required fund.

  • They want me to start working on a prototype for them part-time without getting salary before getting the full funding.

  • They proposed to give me 2% of the shares with a founder agreement (with dilution allowed) as an incentive plan instead of a salary.

  • This agreement defines I am a Contractor, not an employee and I need to work a minimum amount of time for them in the month. And they can review this time unilaterally later.


I know they will be fully funded very soon.




  1. What is the value of my 2% shares?

  2. What will happen to my 2% shares after the full funding and the registration of the company?

  3. What will happen to this co-founder agreement once I will be full-time employed once the full funding is reached?
