sparky151 Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 That part is easy. The team puts an option in the contract which requires a bonus to be exercised. And also a corresponding termination fee if the option isn't exercised. So he'd have an option bonus of X in say March 2024 with a buyout payment of X on the same date. It's effectively a guarantee but until the decision is made the team doesn't owe the money so no need to escrow it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Factor in CA (and maybe Santa Clara) income taxes plus other drainage (agent, etc), and the net may be a lot less than Watt—although PA state taxes aren’t super low.
