This is a delicate and nuanced matter that's hard to know the right answer without all the details. I've gone through this 4 times, and also recently talked to 20 people who went through it, specifically about this topic. Feel free to email me and we can have a call and talk you through the options (paul.biggar@gmail.com) First thought: You don't have 40%, you have at most (11 months / 48 months vesting) * 40% = 9%. But, at 11 months you haven't hit your cliff, so you actually have 0%. That is, if they can fire you. It sounds like they're the CEO so they probably can, but if not the board can.
