It's notable that the proposal could be voted on by Apple shareholders because a former employee told the SEC that Apple lied about not using such clauses.
After a Securities and Exchange Commission decision this week, Apple Inc. investors could be asked to vote on its use of concealment clauses — a shareholder proposal in the spotlight after a former employee told the SEC the tech giant wasn’t truthful in trying to block it.

Scarlett said that’s the second time the tech giant has said it will stop paying her severance as well as her attorney’s fees. She said she has given up the rest of her severance from Apple by speaking out and will continue to “tell the truth.” She added that if the company sues her, she is in debt and “I don’t have anything for them to take.”
