Below is a rundown of letters J-L of Epstein's contacts. Last year, I wrote about letters A-C. You can check that out here (https://www.reddit.com/conspiracy/comments/cpis3n/a_brief_rundown_of_the_first_ten_pages_of_jeffrey/).
I also wrote about letters D-F on July 5, 2020. You can check that out here (https://www.reddit.com/conspiracy/comments/hlrba8/a_notsobrief_rundown_of_letters_df_in_jeffrey/).
I posted letters G-I on July 13, 2020. You can check that out here (https://www.reddit.com/conspiracy/comments/hqko0y/a_notsobrief_rundown_of_letters_gi_in_jeffrey/). There are some misspelled names. Epstein entered their names like this.
I have bolded some of the more interesting connections and information, but there could be much more that I overlooked. I hope something here strikes an interest in someone and maybe we can get more investigations out of this. Please, if you know anything more about any of these people than what is presented here, post below. I am working off of the unredacted black book found here: https://www.coreysdigs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Jeffrey-Epsteins-Little-Black-Book-unredacted.pdf
J-L
Jackson, Michael (Samuel Gen): Yes, this is a reference to MJ the singer. However, the numbers listed are not MJ’s. They belong to Samuel Gen, a lawyer for a financial advisor (Jerry Seinfeld’s brother-in-law) who worked for MJ for a while. This one was a reach for Epstein.
Jacobson, Julian: Likely a reference to a Managing Director at several London-based investment firms.
Jagger, Mick: World-famous lead singer of the Rolling Stones. Has been seen in photographs with Ghislaine Maxwell. Actress Rae Dawn Chong claims she slept with Jagger when she was 15 years old.
Jagger, Hatti: Former fashion director for Vogue, Harper’s, and Tatler. Also works as a celebrity stylist and at fashion shows.
jake: Not enough info.
Jameel, Mohammed: Saudi Arabian businessman. CEO of Abdul Latif Jameel, a collective of family-owned businesses that specialize in transportation, investing, and real estate. Royal pervert Prince Andrew infamously partied on Jameel’s yacht during the 2011 London riots (source: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/prince-andrew-frolicks-on-yacht-with-mystery-147496).
James, Susie: Founder and owner of 123 Send Ltd, a company that provides payment terminals.
Janklow, Linda: Literary agent and wife of Mort Janklow, the primary owner of Janklow & Nesbit Associates, the largest literary agency in the world. Attended a party hosted by Sony Pictures with Epstein, although they are not pictured together (source: https://www.patrickmcmullan.com/search/?event=5b3ef4fb9f92906676446c21). In 2007, Ghislaine Maxwell threw an exclusive party (80 carefully selected guests) at her NYC townhouse to celebrate the opening of a new shop by designer Allegra Hicks (granddaughter-in-law of Earl Mountbatten, who you can read more about in my G-I Epstein thread under India Hicks’s name). One of the eighty guests was Julie Landlow, daughter of Linda and Mort.
Jarecki, Nancy & Andrew: Andrew is a filmmaker, co-founder of Moviefone, and was a producer on Catfish, the documentary that launched the popular MTV show. Andrew’s family was reportedly friends with Jeffrey Epstein. There is an EXCELLENT thread on the connections between the Jarecki family (especially Andrew and Nick’s father, Henry) and Epstein here (source: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1200044576947556352.html). Quick summary: Henry was born in Nazi Germany; flew on the Lolita Express; is an expert in psychotropic drugs; owns two islands in the British Virgin Islands; founded the first youth center in the British Virgin Islands; lived 2 miles from Epstein in NYC; owns and donates to many sketchy foundations, schools, and organizations; has donated at least $1 million to leftist organizations). Andrew’s wife Nancy created bettybeauty, a company that specializes in hair dye for your nether regions (not kidding).
Jarecki, Nick: The movie director brother of Andrew and son of Henry Jarecki (see link under Andrew & Nancy Jarecki for more info). Reportedly dated Courtney Love (also in Epstein’s ‘Black Book’) in 2015. Photographed with Ghislaine Maxwell at a Gucci party (source: https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/ghislaine-maxwell-and-nick-jarecki-attend-gucci-hosts-a-news-photo/591605562).
Jason (canada): Not enough info. Could be artist Jason Wasserman based out of Canada. The second number listed traces back to Station 16 Gallery in Montreal.
Javier: Javier Banon is former Co-head of Merchant Banking at Lehman Brothers and current Founding Partner of Trilantic Europe.
Jeffries, Tim: Ownedirector of Hamiltons Gallery in London. Best known for dating models Elle Macpherson, Claudia Schiffer, Kylie Minogue and Sophie Dahl (also in Epstein’s ‘Black Book’). Jefferies has attended fundraisers for ARK Academy and the NSPCC. He truly cares about children.
Johnson, Richard & Nadine: Nadine is a millionaire public relations guru. Nadine is a good friend of Ghislaine Maxwell’s. Some clients of Nadine Johnson include spirit cooking extraordinaire Marina Abramovic and hotelier Andre Balazs, good friend of Ghislaine. Richard is one of the most well-known gossip columnists and was the editor of Page Six for twenty-five years. There is a great thread detailing the Johnsons’ ties to the Clintons, Balazs, and others here (source: https://threader.app/thread/1162148078981394432). Basically, Richard Johnson is friendly with the Clintons and, as Page Six Editor, purposely did not report or downplayed stories on the Clintons and Nadine’s clients. He also took bribes. Considering Nadine is a good friend of Ghislaine, it would not be a stretch to assume that Richard could have buried stories on Maxwell and Epstein. I could spend 10 pages on the shady connections these two have.
Johnson, Lucy: Not enough info.
Jones, Ann & Mick: Mick is the guitarist of Foreigner, an immensely popular rock band in the ‘70s and ‘80s. His wife, Ann, is a jewelry designer, and friend of Ghislaine. Ann Jones was photographed at a party with Ghislaine and Donald Trump in 1997 (source: https://www.the-sun.com/news/85818/epstein-madam-ghislaine-maxwell-milked-billionaire-dad-and-threw-lavish-parties-with-beautiful-women/)

Katzeneilenbogen, Mark: Long-time investment banker who used to be based out of South Africa.
Keeling, Sarah: There is a Sarah Keeling in London who is a former British government official with 20 years of experience in national security and intelligence experience, however, the phone number listed has a 410 area code, which leads back to eastern Maryland. Inconclusive.
Kegan, Rory: A nightclub designer and creator. Co-founder of the exclusive, celebrity-filled London nightclub, Chinawhite.

Chelsea Clinton has been there, as well (source: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/bright-night-for-china-white-6299739.html). Other patrons include: Prince Andrew, Kate Middleton, George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, and more.
Keidan, Amanda: Owner of Keidan Jewelry.

Keller, Georgie: Interior designer.
Kellette Frayse, Caroline: Fashion editor at Vogue and Tatler (both magazines constantly come up in Epstein’s contacts). Former girlfriend of Imran Khan, whose name has come up frequently. Passed away in 2014. Her husband, Jean-Marc Fraysse, is a French investment banker.
Kelmenson, Leo-Arthur & Gayl: Leo was an advertising and marketing guru who has been credited with saving Chrysler. Friend and advisor to Lee Iacocca, former President of Chrysler. He worked as Special Project Officer for the U.S. Department of State under President John F. Kennedy and AG Robert F. Kennedy. He had tons of connections. His former maid accused him of sexual harassment in 2010 (source: https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/maid-harassment-suit-claims-ad-exec-leo-arthur-kelmenson-madman-pervy-mad-men-wannabe-article-1.156915). Kelmenson died less than two months after the story came out.
Kennedy Cuomo, Andrew & Kerry: Andrew is the current governor of New York. It’s no secret that Cuomo is willing to look the other way on sexual deviancy as long as he receives a payoff. Cuomo halted a probe into the handling of Harvey Weinstein’s case in New York after receiving $25,000 from Weinstein’s law firm (source: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/bjbqg4/andrew-cuomo-received-dollar25000-donation-from-harvey-weinsteins-law-firm). Andrew’s brother, CNN Host Chris Cuomo famously told viewers “not to get caught up in the intrigue of who Epstein’s friends are” (source: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/07/11/cnn_cuomo_lets_not_get_caught_up_in_the_intrigue_of_who_was_friends_with_jeffrey_epstein.html). Perhaps, he was covering for his brother. Kerry Kennedy is Cuomo’s ex-wife of fifteen years, the daughter of RFK, and a close friend of Ghislaine Maxwell. Supposedly, Kennedy provided Ghislaine with informal illegal advice (source: https://www.splicetoday.com/politics-and-media/the-nth-word-and-m-theory).
Kennedy Jr. Ted: Son of Ted Kennedy and nephew of JFK and RFK. Ted Jr. dabbled in politics and currently works as a lawyer. His father, Ted, was a notorious sexual abuser (allegedly).
Kennedy, Bobby & Mary: Bobby is the son of RFK and nephew of JFK. Bobby is a known drug abuser and philanderer. Bobby kept a sex journal detailing his conquests while he was married (source: https://nypost.com/2013/09/08/rfk-jr-s-sex-diary-of-adultery/). His ex-wife, Mary, committed “suicide” two years after their divorce. Before committing suicide, Mary told a friend that she “feared for her life” and Bobby told her that she “would be better off dead” (source: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3231043/How-serial-cheater-Bobby-Kennedy-Jr-strutted-family-home-exposing-private-parts-demanded-m-nage-trois-wife-Mary-went-public-Cheryl-Hines-telling-Mary-things-easier-killed-herself.html).
Kennedy, Ethel: Widow of RFK Sr. and mother of eleven, including Bobby Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, and Joseph Kennedy II.
Kennedy, Jo: Joseph Kennedy II is the son of RFK Sr. and Ethel. Served in the House of Representatives from 1987-1999. In 1973, Joseph was convicted of negligent driving after paralyzing a young woman. He was fined $100.
Kennedy, Senator Edward: Brother of JFK and RFK, Ted Kennedy served as U.S. Senator of Massachusetts for 47 years. Besides politics, Ted is best known for the Chappaquiddick incident in which a young female speechwriter for RFK drowned to death when he lost control of his vehicle while driving across a bridge. He was charged with leaving the scene of an incident and given a two month suspended sentence. Ted was also notorious for his extramarital affairs. Senator Kennedy once hosted a party at his house attended by Bill Clinton and Lynn Forester de Rothschild. Rothschild wrote a letter to Clinton afterwards in which she mentions that they spoke about Epstein (source: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7283825/Jeffrey-Epstein-injured-jail-cell-following-possible-suicide-assault.html). It is unclear what was said or what Rothschild’s connection could possibly be.
Kersner, Sol: South African accountant and hotel and casino magnate who died of cancer in 2020. Kerzner was a close friend of Donald Trump. They even worked together to create The Palm, a man-made island off the coast of Dubai (source: https://www.ft.com/content/46393280-d9f9-11da-b7de-0000779e2340). Kerzner was also close friends with Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York (https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/sarah-ferguson-the-duchess-of-york-sol-kerzner-chairman-and-news-photo/83768272), Naomi Campbell (https://www.gettyimages.ca/detail/news-photo/naomi-campbell-and-sol-kerzner-pose-backstage-during-the-news-photo/82869744), and Bill Clinton (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8144647/As-Sol-Kerzner-dies-aged-84-RICHARD-KAY-looks-riotously-louche-life.html). Kerzner was very good friends with Nelson Mandela and built his casino resorts with Gerard Inzerillo, who you can read about in my G-I ‘Black Book’ thread.

Kidd is an interesting figure with elite connections. From 2005-2012, Ghislaine Maxwell served as Director of Jemma Kidd Make-Up Limited, a U.K. makeup company, which was founded by Kidd. Not only did Ghislaine serve as Director, but she was also a shareholder, along with the Rothschild family (source: https://nationalpost.com/news/world/in-hiding-for-years-epstein-accomplice-ghislaine-maxwell-spotted-in-l-a-burger-shop). If you click around the PDFs on this website (https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/05340072/filing-history), you can see everything. The 16 JUN 2006 PDF on page 3 shows you a list of Officers and shareholders of the company. Jemma Kidd has also attended charity events for the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) (https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-beckham-nspcc-party-jemma-kidd-106882170.html). Her sister, Jodie, is also a huge supportefundraiser of the NSPCC, as well as the Help a London Child and Monsoon Accessorize Trust charities, both of which help out disadvantaged children (source: https://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/jodie-kidd).

Kissinger, Dr. Henry A: Former U.S. Secretary of State and National Security Advisor under Nixon. Kissinger has long been accused of committing war crimes (ex: carpet bombing Cambodia, installing fascist governments in Chile and Argentina, genocide, extending our stay in Vietnam, etc) yet somehow managed to win a Nobel Peace Prize in 1973. Kissinger once said, “Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy.” Kissinger served with Epstein on the Trilateral Commission. Kissinger has also been a member of the Bilderberg Group, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Aspen Institute, and Bohemian Grove. Long thought to be an advocate for a globalist New World Order, Kissinger is a scumbag of the highest order. His connections with Gates, the Clintons, Bush Sr. and Jr., the Rockefellers, and the Rothschilds are well-documented. If anyone here has ever done any research regarding the NWO, you have undoubtedly seen Kissinger’s name several times.

When he ran on the Libertarian ticket as the vice presidential nominee in 1980, Koch aimed to abolish Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, welfare benefits, and minimum wage. Koch and Epstein were friends. Epstein even attended a party at Koch’s Southampton home (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7270735/Jeffrey-Epstein-Trumps-closest-advisers-Wilbur-Ross-Rudy-Giuliani-Steve-Mnunchin.html).

Models1 also represents Epstein and Ghislaine’s friend, Naomi Campbell. Le Bon has been accused of sexual assault in the past (https://www.freep.com/story/news/2018/07/12/simon-le-bons-accuser-sex-assault-claim-speaks-out-awful/777106002/).
Le Fur, Jean-Yves: French businessman and magazine creator. He was once Princess Stephanie of Monaco’s ex-fiance. More notably, Le Fur was the one who discovered supermodel Karen Mulder (his girlfriend at the time) on the floor after she attempted suciide. Mulder blew the lid off the rampant rape and sexual abuse that she and her modeling colleagues had suffered at the hands of businessmen, royalty, celebrities, and government officials. She was even the protege of Epstein collaborator (allegedly), Jean Luc Brunel (https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/article238351108.html).
Le Marg Willie: No info found.
Lea, Piers: CEO of Learning Technologies Group, a workplace digital learning company.
Leeds, Jeffrey: Co-founder and Managing Partner of Leeds Equity. One of Leeds Equity’s partner companies is Endeavor Schools, which runs private preschools, primary schools, and secondary schools in Florida and 11 other states (https://www.leedsequity.com/news/articles/leeds-equity-partners-completes-investment-in-endeavor-schools). They are also partners with Fusion Educational Group (now Fusion Academy), which runs a chain of private secondary schools (https://www.leedsequity.com/news/articles/leeds-equity-partners-completes-investment-in-fusion-education-group). Former teacher Kris White, now the head of Fusion Academy in Palo Alto, allegedly told a student that he was in love with her and wrote her a note saying he was “obsessed” with her. (https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/07/12/teachers-named-in-presentation-high-sex-investigation-kept-working-as-bay-area-educators-for-years/). This story was just published on July 12, 2020. Hypothetically, if one wanted to procure underage children, it would certainly help if the head of the school was on board and possibly a pedophile himself. According to this former teacher at Fusion Academy, “many students struggle with learning differences, behavioral issues, and/or addictions” (https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-Fusion-Academy-RVW21260629.htm). In other words, the downtrodden and vulnerable. Fusion Academy refers to itself as a non-traditional school that focuses on individual students. Seems like a great opportunity. Leeds was also good friends with Epstein (https://nymag.com/nymetro/news/people/n_7912/) and has close ties to Colin Powell and Rudy Giuliani (https://nypost.com/2016/09/14/colin-powell-wont-vote-for-her-because-of-bill-clinton/).

Courtney famously claimed that Prince Andrew showed up to her house late one night in 2000 looking for sex. She has since retracted this claim. The entries under Love’s name all say ‘Dana’ next to them. This is Courtney’s ex-boyfriend, Dana Giacchetto. Giacchetto was considered to be the “stockbroker to the stars” and was friends with JFK Jr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp, and many others. He ripped his clients off of millions. Even more telling, Giacchetto was involved in a sex abuse case against X-Men director Bryan Singer (https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/news/leonardo-dicaprios-convicted-ex-money-manager-denies-bryan-050000120.html).

Founders: Should you let early employees work for equity instead of cash?
Employees: Is a hot startup offering you equity instead of cash for your work?
This post explores the issues around providing or accepting work for equity in advance of seed funding. It highlights the substantial risks, potential problems and outlines common structures. It is in three sections: Founders, Employees and Deal Structure. Paying vendors or service providers with equity is discussed in the last section.
Edit: Thanks for the gold! Is that gold in equity or cash? :-)
FOUNDERS
When starting a company, cash can be scarce and good people can be expensive. If skilled people are willing to work for you for only equity, congratulations! That's a rare and huge vote of confidence. However, even if they are willing, should you accept labor for equity-only payment? The answer is "it depends."
Upsides

• There's no surer sign someone believes in your vision than to bet they can help you turn it into reality.
• It lets you conserve scarce capital for necessities like product creation and marketing when it matters most.
• People working for equity may be more committed to making the business succeed.
• It can be an effective proof point to potential investors.

Downsides

• Convincing talented people to sign on for no cash and keeping them (and families) convinced can be time consuming.
• Structuring no-cash equity comp deals can be complex.
• There are substantial legal risks.
• It's stressful on them and you. They may question business decisions you make and feel like co-founders.
• Are the people willing to work for equity-only the best people? You need great people and great people have cash job offers.
• If you can't pay them by the time they've exhausted their personal funds, they'll have no choice but to leave, disrupting the startup.
• Ethical concerns: If the company fails it could leave a good person who trusted you in dire financial straits. It's one thing if you go down with the ship but can your karma handle taking someone with kids down with you?

As a serial entrepreneur, I've done equity comp deals more than once. My macro advice to founders is to avoid doing it if you possibly can. The risks and distractions are substantial. However, sometimes there's simply no other way forward for the business. In that case, do it for the shortest time possible, do it right and do it very carefully. Here's your basic decision tree:

1. Can you avoid it? Is this person absolutely essential such that the business cannot move forward at all without their full time efforts? You should never consider an equity-only comp deal for anyone that is doing things you could do yourself sort-of-nearly as well. This is not something you do for an office manager or CFO. By definition, when you start paying salaries, this person is going to be one of your highest paid people, because their skills are so valuable.
   
2. Is this person able to do it? You need to figure out if this person is really able to afford gambling and losing their paycheck. Conversely, are they just doing it because they don't have any other paying job prospects at the moment? If so, it's highly unlikely this person's skills are unique and valuable enough to consider doing this.
   
3. Do you have momentum and serious prospects for funding? I'm not talking about the typical "We're gonna be bigger than Facebook!" bravado we put on for everyone else. I'm talking about that quiet conversation you have with yourself when deciding to risk the deed to your house on the success of your company. In that long, dark tea-time of the soul, do you really have serious prospects or is this still a dream riding on a wing and a prayer? If you don't have solid momentum yet, it's better to wait. The amount of time you can sustain a deal like this is limited. If you start too soon, it'll blow up before you're able to convert to salary and that could interrupt your dream just as it's becoming reality.
   
4. Can you do a partial? It's much better to do a blended approach. Here's how I've done it. Pay the person a flat monthly fee as a 1099 contractor and accrue equity for the rest. In one example, I paid a super-star developer $2,000 a month as a contractor and the rest in equity. Based on discussions with him, I knew this was just enough for him to make his house payment and cover groceries, so he wasn't eating substantially into his savings. This was important because closing funding on favorable terms took longer than expected. If he'd been burning his savings I would have been forced to take funding on less favorable terms and that would have been bad for both of us. Was it fun to write that $2,000 check every month out of my personal savings account? No, but this was the best way to do it. When I sold the company, the equity he earned as a contractor before being hired was worth around a quarter of a million dollars (not including the equity he later earned as an employee).
   

Risks
The legal risks are substantial, especially if it's an all-equity, no-cash deal. If your startup doesn't pay for the work, it's possible you don't own the intellectual property. That could include software code, website graphics, customer lists or pretty much anything else. Even if you are "paying" substantial equity on paper, the reality is the equity is worth zero until it's not. No matter what kind of contract the parties sign, there is a risk you may not own the IP unless some vaguely reasonable amount of cash changes hands. This contractor could later make a claim against you and your startup. Am I a lawyer? Nope. But good lawyers worry about this scenario. I've had smart Sand Hill Road VCs turn pale on discovering this kind of deal on the books during due diligence - even though we'd long since started paying salaries. Like a scarlet letter, the potential liability never fades and never goes away. It'll remain an outstanding risk for the life of your company.
At the bright and bold beginning of your brave new adventure you're all comrades in arms, but over time things can change. Especially if your venture starts to become the success you've dreamed it can be. When that first glowing article about your startup hits the national media everyone who ever did a favor for you starts coming out of the woodwork. Most of them will go away empty handed. However, anyone you did this kind of deal with has some legitimacy to their claim. Is it a rock solid claim? No. But it's real and it's not nothing. When you do this kind of all-equity, no-cash comp deal, you are handing a loaded gun to every person you do the deal with. They are your best friend today and maybe they'll be your best friend forever but someday you may wake up to find that gun pointed at your head. Curiously, it's usually about the day after a bunch of extra zeroes appear in your bank account balance. Ask Mark Zuckerberg how costly it can be dealing with the ghosts of messy little deals made back when it was all fun and games.
Are you nervous yet? Good. Now go back to step 1 above and see if you can figure out a way not to need to do this. If you can't then whisper a prayer, hold your breath and proceed to Deal Structure below.
EMPLOYEES
Is that hot startup that looks to be the next Pinterest or Snapchat short on cash? Is it looking like an opportunity to get in on the ground floor and score some extra bonus stock options by working for free until they close funding and can afford to pay you? If you are presented with this option, is it a smart thing to do? The answer is "it depends".
Upsides

• If this startup becomes a huge deal, those stock options could be worth millions.
• You'll be in on the ground floor, about the closest thing to a co-founder there is.
• The boundless gratitude of the founder(s) for helping them out when no one else would may result in an awesome career path.

Downsides

• You could get nothing for all your hard work. In fact, statistically, that is the overwhelming probability.
• You could end up looking like a fool. At every family gathering for the rest of your life, your mother-in-law will taunt you about the hours you slaved away for that Nigerian prince of a startup.
• Due to your emotional and financial commitment to the startup, you could continue burning your savings into the red zone because you'll keep believing it'll be funded "in just one more month." Kind of like that Nigerian prince.
• You're taking all the risks of a co-founder but getting rewarded like an "employee++"
• These kinds of deals are complex. You should probably get your own lawyer to look over the agreement and experienced lawyers aren't cheap.

My advice to prospective employees is to be incredibly paranoid and overly cautious when considering any arrangement like this. Never, ever bet money you can't afford to lose. All startups are substantially riskier bets than any casino game in Las Vegas. Even if the company is one of the few to become profitable, it doesn't mean that the startup's stock options will ever be sellable in a private or public transaction.
Although the startup may refer to you as an employee. Until you are receiving a cash salary greater than minimum wage, you are not an employee. You are an independent contractor. They can't list you as an employee with the state until they are actually paying you cash and they can't do withholding, FICA and social security deductions as a percentage of zero. It doesn't work that way. Until you are employed you do not get benefits of any kind. The company's health and liability insurance do not cover you. You are not eligible for severance or unemployment benefits. The company is not obligated to reimburse you for any expenses unless agreed in advance.
Are you nervous? Good. You probably shouldn't do this. You will likely regret doing this. If you are still determined to do this, proceed to Deal Structure below.
DEAL STRUCTURE
There are generally two parts to these types of deals and you should negotiate them as separate agreements. The first is the future job offer and the second is the contractor's work-for-equity arrangement which can be thought of as an investment in the company.
The Job Offer
Typically, the trigger event for cash salaried employment is the startup closing funding. On that glorious day, how much will the job pay and what will the benefits be? Negotiate the terms of the job offer first, unrelated to the prior equity contractor work. There are many external references for employee salary+equity compensation including salary sites like Glassdoor as well as current job listings for the area.
When the startup is funded and the employee's cash salary begins, the prior contractor-work-for-equity arrangement stops. That future day will be the employee's official "Start Date" with the company. Prior to that they are an independent contractor.
On that future start date as an official employee, part of the overall comp package will include things like health care, vacation days and participation in the ESOP (employee stock option program). Negotiate this now, and do so unrelated to any prior equity-comp arrangement. It should just be fair equity comp for a regular employee hired on that date for cash salary post-funding. Depending on the employee's skills and the company's needs, that can range from sub 1% to several percent and will typically include some kind of cliff and vesting schedule. This should simply be the same deal the startup would offer an equally skilled employee who walked in post-funding and accepted a regular job.
The employee's participation in the ESOP will start on their "Start Date", not before. From that actual start date the ESOP equity will begin vesting under the standard vesting program. Once the parties have agreed on the terms of the future job offer, an important piece of information is now known: the employee/contractor's monthly value to the startup. For convenience, let's say you've all agreed the future cash salary will be $90k/yr gross plus some equity options. That works out to $7500/mo.
The Equity-for-Work Contractor
Any equity deal to compensate the contractor needs to be based on the actual amount of time worked not a flat percentage like 1%. It should be a percentage rate that accrues per month that the contractor does non-salaried work and pro-rated down to the working day.
Let's say, for example, the contractor's work is valued at $7500/mo. The contractor could just take a lump payment in cash on their employee start date for the contractor work done up to that point at a rate of $7500/mo. That would be structuring the deal as a loan to the company. The problem is it's an unsecured loan on a high risk venture. The risk the contractor will do good work and never receive value for it are substantial. So, just like VCs and hedge funds, any increased risk should be compensated with increased upside.
Today, no one knows the value of this new venture but on the day the first external funding closes (not friends & family), smart investors will have estimated the value of the venture and the founders will have agreed this is the value of the venture. For example, let's imagine that 10 months from now the startup raises $1M at a post-money valuation of $4M. That means the day before they closed funding, 100% of the company was worth $3M. As a starting point, we would take $75k (10 x $7.5k/mo) and divide it into the $3M valuation. Obviously, the contractor should get substantially more than that amount of equity just for the ten months of work, otherwise he'd have been working for less than his subsequent employee salary. This risk premium is often a percentage increase similar to what is done with a convertible note. Google "Convertible Note" for more information.
In essence the contractor is investing in the startup exactly like an angel or seed investor. It's just in the form of reinvesting for equity the cash he would have been paid. Because this contract portion of the equity earned is virtually the same as a seed investor, the parties may agree to make the contract portion of the equity options payable in preferred shares instead of common shares like the ESOP. This is an advantage for the contractor because in any liquidation, preferred shares have senior rights. For example in a bankruptcy the preferred shares would receive funding ahead of common shares from the ESOP.
Depending on the terms, this kind of deal can have various advantages and disadvantages for both the company and the contractor. The company can halt the contractor accruing equity at any time by hiring the contractor as an employee and starting his cash salary. They could also choose to not hire the contractor as an employee at all. This preserves all the company's options. It also ensures, if the contractor does ten months of work and the startup opts not to hire the contractor as an employee, he still receives the equity compensation agreed on for the contract work.
The two distinct phases of the deal should not be conflated (contractor and employee). Otherwise, the company could terminate the employee in the first year after paid employment starts (in the one year cliff period) and all the equity the employee earned while a contractor would be zeroed out too.
So What's it Worth?
There are three components to the contractor part of the deal:

• The contractor's value to the company ($7.5k/mo in our example).
• The company's equity value, which is unknown until external funding closes ($3M in our example).
• The risk premium to be added on top of the deal.

The equity in a pre-revenue, pre-funding startup is valued at a steep discount to cash since the equity could worth be X% of zero. How much of a discount? There's no firm guide and precedent varies widely. It depends on both party's expectations of the future viability of the startup. The founder's track record will likely be a factor as well as any tangible product, investor and customer momentum. On the other side, market demand for the prospective contractor's unique skills can drive up their value and the risk premium they can command. A 2x premium is certainly not unheard of, meaning the contractor receives $2 in equity priced at the next funding for every $1 they gave up in salary.
Variations and Twists
There are several variations to this kind of deal structure which the parties can consider. My preferred approach is to never do equity-only payments. It's just too risky for both parties. I advise startups, instead of setting up contractors, hire them as employees at minimum wage and accrue the difference between minimum wage and their full compensation as equity options. This has several benefits including avoiding potential issues with justifying independent contractor status as well as providing cash value for services and labor received.
There are other variations as well. Equity for no-cash contractor work should vest on funding because that agreement, or portion of the agreement, will be concluded on completion of the contract work. The contractor can negotiate to have their vesting start date for ESOP options backdated from their employee start date to their contractor start date. A cash payment of some accrued bonus at funding (the end of the contract) can be considered, which may reduce the amount of equity being accrued somewhat. Sometimes these equity comp deals are mixed with deferred compensation which is repaid as cash plus interest upon funding, or alternatively, as cash plus equity. Another twist would be to agree, in the event of bankruptcy, to convert any contractor equity options to back-wages owed. Wages owed are one of the first obligations paid in a bankruptcy, whereas stock options are generally paid last if any funds remain. Since the duration of the contract work is unknown at the outset, an interest rate paid in extra options can be accrued similar to a convertible note. I've seen such interest rates vary from half a percent a month to two percent a month (note: this is as a percentage of the contractor's equity, not the company's overall equity). In another variation, the company might have the option to repurchase the options at a premium for some time period after the funding, essentially using cash from the funding to retire the options.
What About Vendors and Service Providers?
Some vendors or service providers may be willing to work for equity or part equity, part cash. In one of my startups, for the first two years, our law firm, accounting firm and landlord all took 100% equity and no cash for their services. The landlord supplied a completely furnished office and covered our phone, internet, utilities and janitorial - all for equity. This was not during "the bubble" and it was not in silicon valley, however it was based on a substantial track record. In general, vendors willing to take equity are rare.
With vendors, the structure of the deal mirrors the contractor arrangement discussed above. When I sold that company, all these vendors did well from their equity and were quite pleased. However, I wish I had converted those agreements to cash payments sooner. Though I personally had the cash to pay vendors at the beginning, and certainly had the cash after we reached profitability, maintaining these equity payments seemed like a good trade-off to put more cash into growth. If you do pay vendors with equity, keep a ledger and make sure you update the price in the ledger to your current share price, so you're constantly aware how much is accruing. It can add up and surprise you. While they certainly earned it, I'll admit watching that much money go to those guys in the end was a little painful. I still get nice Christmas cards from all of them though. :-)
