Startups are keen to use motivational tools like the Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP). These programs do not burden the company with the economic cost of paying additional cash compensation. This way, startups can preserve their cash flow, which is especially sensitive during the initial stages of business development. Simultaneously, such programs effectively motivate employees, who have an interest in increasing the value of the company, as they become its co-owners. For this reason, the cap table of almost every startup today includes an entry for an option pool. However, not every founder wants or can commit to permanently transferring part of the company to employees. In such cases, the Phantom Stock Option Plan (PSOP) presents an interesting alternative.
