Ask HN: Avoid Tax hit from vesting of shares?

Startup offered me shares (not options) with 3 years vesting (33.3% after each year).

Today shares worth nothing, but startup may accept funding and that may raise valuation.

My concern is whether I will be liable to pay taxes on vested shares each year even though it's not a publicly traded company and valuation can be calculated in many ways.
