With your approach, they get penalized if your company takes too long to sell/go public.
Sure, it aligns everyone's incentives with getting the company to an exit (not necessarily as quickly as possible, but if it's going to take a long time, everyone should have the incentive to make it a big exit). Is that a bad thing?
