You mean "get acquired" as an owner, or as an employee? I've been through two acquisitions as an employee and don't recall anything special in the way of non-compete agreements.

Mostly owner, although depending on the grants and the terms of your acceleration, maybe? employee too?

The issue as I understand it is "consideration", beyond simple wages for employment.
