Yes, and since the application lists him as a founder, and "founders" in YC context are required to have at least 10% equity, it's a reasonable assumption that he had at least that much equity on that day. It's right there in writing.

The next question is, on what day was that equity no longer his, and by what means?

If there's no documentation of that ever happening they have a genuine problem.



It depends, did a company even exist prior to yc? If not, the claim for equity is pretty shaky as there was no equity at the time.
