I have vested options which I'd like to turn into some liquidity. The company I work for apparently doesn't allow employees to sell shares (after exercising the options) to any of those third party marketplaces. Additionally, the company probably won't go public for a few more years.
The company is profitable and growing, but for a variety of reasons (mostly personal) I do not wish to stay at the company.
The vested options are definitely worth something, and I would like to extract at least some of their value immediately. However, I cannot afford to exercise all of the vested options, and so would want to seek financing.
The only option I've found thus far, which seems to be what I'm looking for, is SecFi. They apparently offer a product to both finance the purchase and provide immediate liquidity without actually selling the shares.
Does anyone know of any other options that will give me immediate liquidity without violating the sale prohibition mentioned earlier?

But once you're no longer there, you're no longer an employee. Can you sell then? Or am I reading too much into your words?

Otherwise, speak with your manger about disposing of the shares. Surely one of the existing investors would be interested if the company is doing well.
