Try just asking.

Present yourself in a reasonable light, have coffee with one of the people in charge, and just mention that you feel you're getting something of a raw deal on equity. If they're decent, they'll fix it, and if not, you don't want to be there anyway.

jaggederest is right. Sometimes we get too bogged down with planning, researching, positioning, etc. Just have an open discussion. This will save you a lot of time and will get you to a happier state of mind.
