ZeroStack Corp. (ZSTK) · Nov 2, 2026 · Exec change
$350K CFO consulting pact — 12-year term; $350K base fee split $50K/$300K
ZeroStack’s new consulting agreement keeps Dany Vaiman as CFO but shifts compensation through an entity he controls, creating a governance wrinkle.
ZeroStack is now an AI treasury company focused on owning 0G tokens and building exposure to AI infrastructure and asset management. Against that backdrop, this filing is mainly a CFO-contract restructuring—not a change in who runs finance.
Operational continuity is preserved. Dany Vaiman remains the company’s sole CFO, so the filing does not create a leadership vacancy or signal an immediate finance transition. 〔0〕
The compensation structure is the real change. ZeroStack terminated Vaiman’s employment agreement and replaced it with a consulting arrangement involving both Vaiman personally and Summer 366 Holdings, an LLC he controls.
The terms introduce a governance concern without proving a business setback. The agreement runs for 12 years and pays a $350,000 base fee, with $300,000 directed to Vaiman’s controlled LLC and $50,000 to him personally; each contractor also has a $350,000 target bonus and eligibility for equity compensation. The filing does not explain why the arrangement is preferable to employment, how the bonus maximum applies across the two contractors, or what equity may be granted.
Bottom line: The company keeps finance leadership in place, but replaces a normal employment relationship with a long, insider-linked consulting structure. That makes this a modestly negative governance development rather than a change to ZeroStack’s operating strategy or continuity story.
