Phantom Stock Plan Clause Samples

A Phantom Stock Plan is a contractual arrangement that grants employees the benefits of stock ownership without actually giving them company shares. Under this plan, employees receive units that mirror the value of company stock, and upon certain events like vesting or company sale, they are paid the equivalent cash value of those units. This clause is commonly used to incentivize and retain key employees by aligning their interests with the company's performance, while avoiding the complexities and dilution associated with issuing real equity.
