UK startup with Delaware C-Corp as hold-co

When a UK startup uses a Delaware C-Corp as the hold-co where the investment occurs (and then there's a UK-based company that is the operating company), do the employees get their stock options in the delaware company or at the operating company in the UK? Is there a standard here?

Typically, employees receive stock options in the Delaware C-Corp, which serves as the holding company. This structure is common because it aligns with the interests of international investors and simplifies the management of equity incentives. However, specific arrangements can vary, and it's essential to consult legal and tax advisors to ensure compliance with both UK and US regulations.
