Should I be asking for compensation until I'm fully vested?

I'm contemplating entering a partnership with a client I've been contracting for - I think it's a very promising concept and the CEO has proven himself capable in the industry.

This is a brand new company (pre launch) and I'd prefer to just make the deal rather than do any vesting, but if that's the offer I get, I may take it. Should I be charging my consulting rate until I'm fully vested, and prorate the amount accordingly until then? Would it be foolish to work without compensation while I'm still vesting?
