zanone··on Co-founder exiting after pivot – what's a fair exit package?
Not sure they need to do anything. Maybe in the interest of smooth sailing, and closing things off, then the board might be motivated to reach a mutually acceptable conclusion. Whether this be a little buyout, an advisor tie-in, etc, completely depends. Situations like this is why founders create equity agreements.

Have been in that situation. If you leave, you're done. It's up to the other co-founders if they want to throw you a bone to keep a relationship in place. The leaver is dead to the board and the investors. It's your business now, move on.
