The transaction won’t be disclosed if it is immaterial (small enough). Ask a friend from the company or maybe an investor depending on who you have a relationship with. You just want to know the per share valuation of common stock.

Frankly I’m surprised the founder isn’t being more candid with you. Messing about and prolonging this stuff helps no one.

It's not that easy unfortunately - there will almost certainly be different classes of shareholder and various clauses to protect investors etc. Your options may well turn out to be worthless.
