Equity Compensation for Partnerships and LLCs
Wednesday, June 21, 2017 | 1 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. ET

Partnership and LLC equity compensation programs raise many of the same issues that arise with corporate equity compensation. However, because of the “flow-through” nature of partnership taxation, there are some unique planning opportunities and pitfalls that can arise in the realm of partnership equity compensation.

Join us for a 75-minute webinar addressing common issues and structures for partnership and LLC equity compensation including:

  • The difference between a “capital interest” and a “profits interest”;
  • Profits interests subject to vesting restrictions;
  • Tax Treatment of partnership and LLC equity awards upon various liquidity events; and
  • Collateral tax and employee benefit consequences of partnership and LLC equity awards.
