Jack owns ~24% of the company. It is just his equity.

Yes, but 10% of 100% is a lot more than 10% of 24%.

It was reported that he would be giving up 30-50%(now at least 50% apparently) of his own stake. Which comes out around 10% of the entire company, depending on what number is actually correct.
