It can be difficult to come up with the funds needed to exercise your vested, private company stock options, and Forge believes that stock option holders should have the ability to acquire and sell the equity they have earned.
Forge Lending LLC, a Forge subsidiary, offers employees an Options Exercise Bridge Loan that can provide you with the funds needed to exercise stock options and sell the resulting stock without incurring a significant upfront cash expense.
