Proposal 1: Election of Directors
Proposal 1: Election of Directors Our amended and restated bylaws provide that our Board of Directors shall consist of such number of directors as shall from time to time be fixed by resolution of our Board of Directors. Currently, our Board of Directors is composed of eight members, three of whom have been determined by the Executive Committee on behalf of the Board of Directors to be independent directors as defined under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). We do not have a classified board of directors. At each annual meeting of our stockholders, each of our directors will be elected by our stockholders to serve until the next annual meeting of our stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders will vote on the election of the eight director nominees named in this Proxy Statement. Each of the directors elected at the Annual Meeting will hold office until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”) and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified. The Board of Directors has nominated Mr. David Barrett, Mr. Ryan Schaffer, Ms. Anu Muralidharan, Mr. Jason Mills, Mr. Daniel Vidal, Mr. Timothy L. Christen, Ms. Ellen Pao and Ms. Ying (Vivian) Liu for re-election to serve as the directors of the Company. The persons named as proxies in the enclosed proxy card will vote to elect each director nominee named in this Proxy Statement unless a stockholder indicates that his or her shares should be withheld with respect to one or more of such nominees. We expect the Voting Trust to vote in favor of the eight nominees for directors. Please see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” below for a description of the Voting Trust Agreement. In the event that any nominee for director becomes unavailable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote the proxies in their discretion for any nominee who is designated by the current Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. All of the nominees are currently serving as directors and we do not expect that any of the nominees will be unavailable or will decline to serve. Each of the nominees for director has agreed to be named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director if elected. In determining that each director should be nominated for re-election, our Board of Directors considered his or her service, business experience, prior directorships and the qualifications, attributes and skills described in the nominee’s biography set forth below under “Corporate Governance—Executive Officers and Directors.” We believe that our directors provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of our business.
Proposal 1: Election of Directors
| | Our Executive Committee on behalf of our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each of Mr. Barrett, Mr. Schaffer, Ms. Muralidharan, Mr. Mills, Mr. Vidal, Mr. Christen, Ms. Pao and Ms. Liu. |

(1)Except as otherwise noted, the option is exercisable immediately upon grant and vests as to 1/48th of the shares on each monthly anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the holder continuing to provide services to the Company through such vesting date. Any shares acquired prior to vesting may be repurchased by us for the original exercise price upon any termination of employment. The repurchase right lapses in accordance with the option’s vesting schedule. (2)Amounts reported were calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2023 by $2.47, the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on December 29, 2023, the last trading day in 2023. (3)The option is fully vested and exercisable. (4)The option is exercisable immediately upon grant and vests as to 1/72nd of the shares on each monthly anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the holder continuing to provide services to the Company through such vesting date. Any shares acquired prior to vesting may be repurchased by us for the original exercise price upon any termination of employment. The repurchase right lapses in accordance with the option’s vesting schedule. (5)Each RSU constitutes the right to receive one-half of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock and one-half of one share of the Company’s LT50 common stock upon vesting. 12.5% of the RSUs in substantially equal installments on each quarterly anniversary of the vesting commencement date through the 8th anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the holder continuing to provide services to the Company through the applicable vesting date.

(1)Amounts are calculated by multiplying the number of shares as to which the option was exercised by the market price of the shares on the exercise date, net of the exercise price. (2)Amounts are calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying RSUs that vested by our closing stock price on the vesting date, or, for shares issued under our 2021 Stock Purchase and Matching Plan, the date of issuance since all such shares were fully vested on the date of issuance.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
Estimated Potential Payments
Estimated Potential Payments No payments would have been made to any of our NEOs upon the occurrence of a termination of employment or a change in control occurring on December 31, 2023 unless an acquirer failed to assume or substitute for unvested options and restricted stock units held by our NEOs, in which case the vesting of such options and restricted stock units would accelerate in full. The value of such acceleration for Mr. Barrett, Mr. Schaffer and Ms. Muralidharan as of December 31, 2023, would be $8,880,179, $1,399,198 and $449,659, respectively, which was calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying the options and RSUs by $2.47, the closing trading price of a share of our common stock on December 29, 2023, less any exercise price.
CEO PAY RATIO
CEO PAY RATIO In accordance with applicable SEC rules, we are providing the ratio of the total annual compensation of our CEO, David Barrett, to that of our median compensated employee for fiscal 2023. Mr. Barrett’s total annual compensation for 2023, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table above, was $1,837,114. The total annual compensation of the employee identified as our median compensated employee (excluding our CEO) for 2023 was $273,459. The ratio of our CEO’s total compensation for 2023 to the total compensation of our median compensated employee was approximately 7 to 1. To identify our median compensated employee for purposes of this pay ratio disclosure, we first determined that on December 31, 2023, we had 138 full-time, part-time, and temporary service providers other than Mr. Barrett. We ranked the annual compensation of this employee population based on compensation reportable on IRS Form W-2 in the United States and comparable tax reporting documents in other countries. For employees paid in foreign currencies we converted their annual compensation using foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 2023. After identifying the median compensated employee from this ranking, we calculated annual total compensation for such employee during fiscal 2023 using the same methodology we use to calculate the total compensation of our CEO as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table above. This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on his or her annual total compensation allow companies to use a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio we report above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions to calculate their own pay ratios. The information disclosed in this section was developed and is provided solely to comply with specific legal requirements. We do not use this information in managing our Company and the Compensation Committee does not consider this in any of its deliberations.
