Reward Performance, Not Dilution with Phantom Stocks
What are Phantom stocks?

Phantom stocks, also known as shadow stocks, is a unique employee benefit plan that functions similar to stock options but doesn't grant actual shares of the company. In this type of plan, mock stocks are granted to the employees that mirrors real shares and their value is linked to the company's stock price. To receive a payout on their phantom shares, employees must have worked for a designated work period (known as the vesting period)
