Thank you all for your awesome feedback. The POV expressed is decidedly to "Wait" before saying anything, despite that it will leave the boss hanging.
I especially appreciate the perspective to consider what the bosses' boss will want to do, or HR. As much as I would like to do the right thing, I agree that "the rules are there for both sides" and "neither side is wrong for following them." I also appreciated the warning that stock options and bonuses are set up as "retention tools, not retirement incentives."
I wanted to give an informal heads-up, not give a specific day but instead just say sometime this spring/summer. Now I am hesitant to do even that.
Honestly some part of me just wants to exit at this point. By giving him notice, it would start the end-game for me and they can do what they want. That said, what I have at stake is about 4 months salary. I guess I should just wait.
