It absolutely DOES happen for C-level execs - I've been at a company where it happened and the (IMO extreme) payout was revealed in the S-1 filing when the company IPOed. It's yet another example where the rules at the top are created specifically to benefit them at the expense of everyone else.

Its because the c level execs have the resources to hire lawyers to exercise their rights
