Ex-Nvidia advisor Eric Gullichsen claims $1B in unvested stock from 1993 grant
Eric Gullichsen, a former Nvidia Technical Advisory Board member, says a 1993 stock option grant he re-examined in 2024 shows a one-year vesting schedule rather than the four years he was told, meaning 9,375 additional shares should have vested. After accounting for Nvidia's stock splits, he calculates this discrepancy would now be worth roughly $1 billion. He says he and his lawyer concluded the statute of limitations likely barred any legal claim.
