Equity comp at Professional Diversity Network, Inc.

  • Professional Diversity Network (NASDAQ: IPDN) adopted its 2023 Equity Compensation Plan governing RSU grants to employees and non-employee directors. RSUs vest in three equal annual tranches over two years from the grant date. Full acceleration upon a change in control requires both a qualifying corporate transaction and an involuntary termination without cause or resignation for good reason within a specified post-closing window (double trigger). Prior awards under the 2015 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan remain outstanding on their original schedules.
  • RSUs use double-trigger vesting. Two things must both happen before the shares are yours: (1) the normal time-based vesting completes, and (2) the company has a liquidity event (an IPO or an acquisition). Until both happen, you do not yet own the shares and you do not owe tax on them.
  • Vesting schedule: non-standard 3-tranche 2-year.

How much IPDN stock is too much?
