Executive Summary

Business Overview

Twilio spent over a decade building the leading cloud communications platform, but communications is just the beginning. Twilio’s vision is to become the leading customer engagement platform, ultimately providing businesses with the holy grail—a single view of the customer journey and the ability to take action, delivering real-time, personalized communications. We believe the future of customer engagement will be written in software by the developers of the world—our customers.

Cloud platforms are a category of software that enable developers to build and manage applications without the complexity of creating and maintaining the underlying infrastructure. These platforms have arisen to enable a fast pace of innovation across a range of categories, such as computing and storage. As the leader in the cloud communications platform category, we enable developers to build, scale and operate real-time customer engagement within software applications.

We offer a customer engagement platform with software designed to address specific use cases, like account security and contact centers, and a set of Application Programming Interfaces (“

APIs

”) that handles the higher-level communication logic needed for nearly every type of customer engagement. These APIs are focused on the business challenges that a developer is looking to address, allowing our customers to more quickly and easily build better ways to engage with their customers throughout their journey. Our engagement platform also includes a set of APIs that enable developers to embed voice, messaging, video and email capabilities into their applications, and are designed to support almost all the fundamental ways humans communicate, unlocking innovators to address just about any communication market. The Super Network is our software layer that allows our customers’ software to communicate with connected devices globally. It interconnects with communications networks and inbox service providers around the world and continually analyzes data to optimize the quality and cost of communications that flow through our platform. The Super Network also contains a set of APIs giving our customers access to more foundational components of our platform, like phone numbers and session initiation protocol (“

SIP

”) Trunking.

Our overall strategy is to develop great APIs that developers love. These developers are our champions and bring us “in” to companies of every type, most frequently utilizing our messaging and email tools as an entry point. This “in” motion creates initial relationships with customers of all sizes including major enterprises that allow us to move “up” the software stack and provide those companies with software solutions that address their customer engagement requirements from marketing to sales and support. Today, we offer Twilio Campaigns for marketing, Twilio Flex for customer support and Twilio Verify to onboard and recognize customers. The more strategic nature of these software products also allows us to move up the organization chart, interacting with more senior and strategic purchasers. This “in” and “up” strategy is a motion we work on improving every day. We will also continue to invest aggressively in our platform approach, which prioritizes increasing our reach and scale.

Fiscal 2021 Performance Highlights

—At our Chief Executive Officer’s request, our compensation and talent management committee did not increase his base salary from its 2020 level, other than a nominal increase for rounding purposes. We made market adjustments to the base salary of certain other named executive officers, as we continue to move the target total cash compensation of certain named executive officers closer to the market median.

•

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

—We granted ongoing long-term incentive compensation opportunities to our named executive officers in the form of time-based stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock and time-based RSUs that may be settled for shares of our Class A common stock. Our Chief Executive Officer received an equity award with an aggregate grant date fair value of approximately $13.9 million.

•

No Annual Cash Bonus Program

—Since July 1, 2015, we have not maintained a formal annual cash bonus plan for any of our executive officers, including our named executive officers. As described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Cash Incentives” below, Mr. Boroditsky participates in our sales commission program.

Fiscal 2021 Executive Transitions

Pay-for-Performance

Analysis

We believe our executive compensation program is reasonable and competitive, and appropriately balances the goals of attracting, motivating, rewarding and retaining our executive officers with the goal of

aligning their interests with those of our stockholders. The annual compensation of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, varies from year to year based on our corporate financial and operational results and individual performance. While we do not determine either contingent (“variable”) or “fixed” pay for each named executive officer with reference to a specific percentage of target total direct compensation, consistent with our

“pay-for-performance”

philosophy, our executive compensation program heavily emphasizes “variable” pay over “fixed” pay.

In 2021, the majority of the target total direct compensation of our Chief Executive Officer consisted of variable pay in the form of long-term incentive compensation opportunities. Fixed pay, primarily consisting of base salary, made up only 1% of our Chief Executive Officer’s target total direct compensation, while variable pay, consisting of long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards, made up the remaining 99% of his target total direct compensation. Similar allocations applied to our other executive officers, including each of our other named executive officers. The following charts show the percentages of target variable pay versus target fixed pay for our Chief Executive Officer and our other named executive officers in 2021:

We believe that this approach provides balanced incentives for our executive officers to drive our financial performance and create long-term stockholder value.

Executive Compensation Policies and Practices

We endeavor to maintain sound governance standards consistent with our executive compensation policies and practices. Our compensation and talent management committee evaluates our executive compensation program on at least an annual basis to ensure that it is consistent with our short-term and long-term goals given the dynamic nature of our business and the market in which we compete for executive talent. The following summarizes our executive compensation and related policies and practices:


What We Do		What We Don’t Do
Use a Pay-for-Performance Philosophy. The vast majority of our executive officers’ target total direct compensation is directly linked to the performance of our stock price, and beginning in 2022, will align certain elements with the achievement of corporate growth objectives.		No Retirement Plans. We do not currently offer pension arrangements, nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements or retirement plans to our executive officers other than a Section 401(k) retirement plan that is generally available to all our U.S. employees.


What We Do		What We Don’t Do

Compensation “At-Risk.” Our executive compensation program is designed so that a significant portion of our executive officers’ target total direct compensation is equity-based, and therefore “at risk,” to align the interests of our executive officers and stockholders.		No Short-Term Cash Bonus Program or Guaranteed Bonuses. We do not maintain a formal cash bonus program for our executive officers, nor do we provide guaranteed bonuses to our executive officers. As described below, Mr. Boroditsky participates in our sales commission program.

“Double-Trigger” Change-in-Control Arrangements. Post-employment compensation arrangements for all current executive officers in the event of a change in control of the Company are “double-trigger” arrangements that require both a change in control of the Company plus a qualifying termination of employment before payments and benefits are paid. All such payments and benefits are also subject to the execution and delivery of an effective release of claims in our favor.		Limited Perquisites or Other Personal Benefits. We provide limited perquisites and other personal benefits to our executive officers, which, in 2021, consisted of matching contributions to Section 401(k) accounts and reimbursements for our Chief Executive Officer’s costs incurred in connection with his filing under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976 (“ HSR ”) and related tax gross up and legal fees.

Maintain an Independent Compensation and Talent Management Committee. Our compensation and talent management committee consists solely of independent, non-employee directors.		Limited Tax Payments on Perquisites. Except as otherwise specified, we generally do not provide any tax reimbursement payments (including “gross-ups”) on any perquisites or other personal benefits.

Retain an Independent Compensation Advisor. Our compensation and talent management committee has engaged its own independent compensation advisor to provide information, analysis and other advice on executive compensation independent of management.		No Excise Tax Payments on Future Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements. We do not provide any excise tax reimbursement payments (including “gross-ups”) with respect to payments or benefits contingent upon a change in control of our Company.

Annual Executive Compensation Review. Our compensation and talent management committee conducts an annual review of our compensation strategy, including a review of our compensation peer group used for comparative and benchmarking purposes.		No Hedging. We prohibit our employees, including our executive officers, and the non-employee members of our board of directors from engaging in hedging transactions or certain derivative transactions relating to our securities.

Annual Compensation-Related Risk Assessment. Our compensation and talent management committee reviews, on an annual basis, our compensation-related risk profile.		No Pledging. We prohibit our executive officers and the non-employee members of our board of directors from holding our securities in a margin account or pledging our securities as collateral for a loan.

Stock Ownership Policy. We maintain a robust stock ownership policy for our Chief Executive Officer, our other named executive officers and the non-employee members of our board of directors.		No Special Welfare or Health Benefits. We do not provide our executive officers with any special welfare or health benefit programs, and participation in the employee programs that are standard in our industry sector is on the same basis as all of our full-time employees.

Commitment to Stockholder Engagement

As we manage our business with a focus on continued innovation and growth, we recognize that our compensation program must balance stockholder perspectives with our ability to retain and attract the highest caliber of talent to help facilitate growth at scale. Our board of directors and our compensation and talent management committee value the stockholder perspectives we receive, through direct engagement as well as through voting decisions, including our annual

Say-on-Pay

Vote at our annual stockholder meetings, and the compensation-related feedback we receive from stockholders is an important component that informs the compensation and talent management committee’s decision-making process when reviewing our executive compensation programs each year.

We have established a robust stockholder engagement program to help us better understand the perspectives of our stockholders. In 2021, in addition to our standard engagement with stockholders throughout the year, we conducted meetings with several of our large stockholders, with participation from our management team and certain members of our board of directors, including Mses. Donio and Rottenberg, the chairpersons of our compensation and talent management committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, respectively, on topics ranging from compensation strategy, to board structure and corporate governance, to environmental, social and governance matters (“

ESG

”). In addition, our head of investor relations regularly communicates stockholder feedback to senior management and the board of directors for consideration in their decision-making.

The 2021 executive compensation program was implemented in early 2021, and the compensation and talent management committee, in connection with input from our full board of directors, determined at that time that our concentration on equity compensation, particularly the grant of equity awards in the form of 50% (by fair value) stock options and 50% (by fair value) RSUs with time-based vesting, is aligned with long-term stockholder value. However, our compensation and talent management committee continues to assess the Company’s equity compensation practices in light of the Company’s continued growth and maturation as well as discussions with stockholders and determined to implement changes to our executive compensation program beginning in 2022 to grant performance-based equity awards as part of our executive compensation program, as discussed in “Evolving our Executive Compensation Program” below.

We believe the addition of performance-based equity awards, as well as other enhancements to our governance practices and disclosures in response to stockholder feedback, such as increasing our stock ownership requirements for directors and executive offices and enhancing our ESG disclosures, have advanced our compensation practices and governance in a manner that both benefits stockholders and continues to align with our strategy and pay philosophy.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

We operate in an extremely competitive market where there is substantial and continuous competition for leadership with the experience and skill to lead in a dynamic and innovative industry. Our executive compensation program is guided by our overarching philosophy of paying for demonstrable performance and aligning the compensation of our executive officers with the long-term interests of our stockholders. Consistent with this philosophy, we designed our executive compensation program to achieve the following primary objectives:

•

attract, motivate, incentivize and retain employees at the executive level who contribute to our long-term success;

•

provide compensation packages to our executive officers that are competitive and reward the achievement of our business objectives; and

•

effectively align our executive officers’ interests with the interests of our stockholders by focusing on long-term equity incentives that correlate with the growth of sustainable long-term value for our stockholders.

Because we do not have a cash bonus program for our executive officers, generally, our compensation and talent management committee has sought to set base salaries at the higher end of the competitive market range to provide what it believes to be reasonable cash compensation levels and will serve to attract and retain our executive officers. Further, our compensation and talent management committee tends to weight the target total direct compensation opportunities of our executive officers more heavily towards equity compensation. We understand the importance of linking the individual performance of our executive officers and the financial and operational performance of our company to our overall executive compensation program. We believe our strong focus on, and heavy weighting toward, equity compensation supports that philosophy and has worked to align our executive compensation with the interests of our stockholders. However, we continue to review the current equity compensation trends as well as the feedback from our stockholders in regard to our executive compensation program.

Evolving our Executive Compensation Program

In March 2022, in addition to granting time-based restricted stock unit awards to our named executive officers, our compensation and talent management committee also granted performance-based restricted stock unit awards. The performance-based awards vest based on the achievement of certain goals over specified performance periods, including year-over year organic revenue growth rates and

non-GAAP

operating profit, and are intended to further align the interests of our named executive officers and our stockholders.

Oversight of Executive Compensation Program

Role of the Compensation and Talent Management Committee

Our compensation and talent management committee discharges many of the responsibilities of our board of directors relating to the compensation of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, and the

non-employee

members of our board of directors (as described further below under the heading

“Non-Employee

Director Compensation”). Our compensation and talent management committee has overall responsibility for overseeing our compensation structure, policies and programs generally, and overseeing and evaluating the compensation plans, policies and practices applicable to our executive officers. Our compensation and talent management committee also oversees the annual evaluation of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, for the prior fiscal year and has the authority to retain, and has retained, an independent compensation consultant to provide support to the committee in its review and assessment of our compensation programs.

Compensation-Setting Process

Our compensation and talent management committee determines the target total direct compensation opportunities for our executive officers, including our named executive officers. Our compensation and talent management committee does not use a single method or measure in developing its recommendations, nor does it establish one specific target for the total direct compensation opportunities of our executive officers. Rather, it retains flexibility to pay our executive officers within certain ranges. Nonetheless, our compensation and talent management committee generally begins its deliberations on cash and equity compensation levels with reference to various percentile levels for cash compensation and target total direct compensation as reflected in competitive market data, with an intended result of weighting compensation more heavily towards equity compensation.

When formulating its recommendations for the amount of each compensation element and approving each compensation element and the target total direct compensation opportunity for our executive officers, our compensation and talent management committee considers the following factors:

•

our performance against the financial and operational objectives established by our compensation and talent management committee and our board of directors;

•

our financial performance relative to our compensation peer group;

•

the compensation levels and practices of our compensation peer group;

•

each individual executive officer’s skills, experience and qualifications relative to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group and in selected broad-based compensation surveys;

•

our desire to retain experienced and talented executives in a highly competitive market;

•

the scope of each individual executive officer’s role compared to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group and in selected broad-based compensation surveys;

•

the performance of each individual executive officer, based on a subjective assessment of his or her contributions to our overall performance, ability to lead his or her business unit or function and ability to work as part of a team, all of which reflect our core values;

•

compensation parity among our individual executive officers; and

•

the recommendations provided by our Chief Executive Officer with respect to the compensation of our other executive officers.

These factors provide the framework for compensation decision-making and final decisions regarding the compensation opportunity for each executive officer. No single factor is determinative in setting pay levels, nor was the impact of any factor on the determination of pay levels quantifiable. Our compensation and talent management committee reviews the base salary levels and long-term incentive compensation opportunities of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, each fiscal year at the beginning of the year, or more frequently as warranted. Long-term incentive compensation is granted on a regularly-scheduled basis, as described in “Other Compensation Policies and Practices—Equity Awards Grant Policy” below.

Role of Chief Executive Officer

In discharging its responsibilities, our compensation and talent management committee consults with members of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer. Our management assists our compensation and talent management committee by providing information on corporate and individual performance, market compensation data and management’s perspective on compensation matters. Our compensation and talent management committee solicits and reviews our Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations and proposals with respect to adjustments to annual cash compensation, long-term incentive compensation opportunities, program structures and other compensation-related matters for our executive officers, other than with respect to his own compensation.

Our compensation and talent management committee reviews and discusses these recommendations and proposals with our Chief Executive Officer and considers them as one factor in determining the compensation for our executive officers, including our other named executive officers. Our Chief Executive Officer recuses himself from all deliberations and determinations regarding his own compensation.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Our compensation and talent management committee engages an external independent compensation consultant to assist it by providing information, analysis and other advice relating to our executive compensation program and the decisions resulting from its annual executive compensation review. For 2021, our compensation and talent management committee engaged Compensia as its compensation consultant to advise on executive compensation matters, including competitive market pay practices for

our executive officers, the selection of our compensation peer group, and data analysis. For 2021, the scope of Compensia’s engagement included:

•

researching, developing and reviewing our compensation peer group;

•

reviewing and analyzing the compensation for our executive officers, including our named executive officers;

•

supporting the design and implementation of changes to our executive long-term incentive strategy;

•

reviewing and providing input on the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Amendment;

•

reviewing and analyzing the compensation of the

non-employee

members of our board of directors;

•

reviewing short-term incentive compensation practices and considerations;

•

reviewing peer group executive incentive compensation practices;

•

reviewing peer group executive severance and change in control practices;

•

reviewing our executive compensation philosophy;

•

conducting a compensation risk assessment;

•

advising regarding

non-employee

director compensation; and

•

supporting other ad hoc matters throughout the year.

The terms of Compensia’s engagement included reporting directly to our compensation and talent management committee and to our compensation and talent management committee chairperson. Compensia also coordinated with our management for data collection and job matching for our executive officers and provided data and analyses in connection with the review of our equity strategy. In 2021, Compensia did not provide any other services to us. In March 2021, our compensation and talent management committee evaluated Compensia’s independence pursuant to NYSE and LTSE Listing Standards and the relevant SEC rules and determined that no conflict of interest had arisen as a result of the work performed by Compensia.

Use of Market Data

For purposes of comparing our executive compensation against the competitive market, our compensation and talent management committee reviews and considers the compensation levels and practices of a group of peer companies. This compensation peer group consists of technology companies that are similar to us in terms of industry, revenue and market capitalization.

Our compensation and talent management committee reviews our compensation peer group at least annually and makes adjustments to its composition if warranted, taking into account changes in both our business and the businesses of the companies in the peer group, and input from its compensation consultant. Accordingly, the peer group that was used for comparative purposes for 2021 was approved in September 2020.

In developing the compensation peer group for 2021, the following criteria were evaluated in identifying comparable companies:

•

similar industry and competitive market for talent;

•

within a range of 0.5x to 2.0x of our projected revenue for the following four fiscal quarters (as of August 2020); and

•

within a range of 0.25x to 4.0x of our then-market capitalization.

In September 2020, the compensation and talent management committee reviewed our compensation peer group and, upon the recommendation of its compensation consultant, added Ansys, Coupa Software, Fortinet, Intuit, Synopsys and The Trade Desk to the compensation peer group and removed Dropbox, Guidewire Software, Hubspot, New Relic, Paylocity Holding, Proofpoint and Zendesk. The peer group for 2021, which was approved by the compensation and talent management committee in September 2020, consisted of the following companies:


Ansys	Intuit	Shopify	VeriSign
Arista Networks	Okta	Slack Technologies	Workday
Autodesk	Palo Alto Networks	Splunk	Zoom Video
Coupa Software	Paycom Software	Synopsys
DocuSign	RingCentral	The Trade Desk
Fortinet	ServiceNow	Veeva Systems

Our compensation and talent management committee uses data drawn from our compensation peer group, as well as data from the Radford Global Technology executive compensation survey (the “

Radford Survey

”), to evaluate the competitive market when formulating its recommendation for the total direct compensation packages for our executive officers, including base salary and long-term incentive compensation opportunities. The Radford Survey provides compensation market intelligence and is widely used within the technology industry.

In addition, subsets of the Radford Survey were incorporated into the competitive assessment prepared by Compensia and used by our compensation and talent management committee to evaluate the compensation of our executive officers. Specifically, our compensation and talent management committee received a custom report of survey results reflecting only companies from our compensation peer group in addition to survey results tailored solely based on revenue. The Radford Survey data supplements the compensation peer group data and provides additional information for our named executive officers and other executive positions for which there is less comparable public data available.

Individual Compensation Elements

In 2021, the principal elements of our executive compensation program, and the purposes for each element, were as follows:


Element	Compensation Element	Objective
Base Salary	Cash	Designed to attract and retain highly talented executives by providing fixed compensation amounts that are competitive in the market and reward performance.

Long-Term Incentives	Equity awards in the form of stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock and RSUs that may be settled for shares of our Class A common stock	Designed to align the interests of our executive officers and our stockholders by motivating them to achieve long-term stockholder value creation. Also designed to achieve our retention objectives for our executive officers.

Base Salary

Base salary represents the fixed portion of the compensation of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, and is an important element of compensation intended to attract and retain highly talented individuals.

Using the competitive market data provided by its compensation consultant, our compensation and talent management committee reviews and develops recommendations for adjusting the base salaries for each of our executive officers, including our named executive officers, as part of its annual executive compensation review. In addition, the base salaries of our executive officers may be adjusted by our compensation and talent management committee in the event of a promotion or significant change in responsibilities.

Generally, our compensation and talent management committee sets base salaries with reference to various percentile levels of the competitive range of our compensation peer group and applicable executive compensation survey data. Since our initial public offering, we have evaluated the base salaries of our executive officers in the context of establishing their total cash compensation at levels that are consistent with the target total cash compensation of executive officers holding comparable positions at public companies.

In 2021, consistent with the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer, our compensation and talent management committee determined to increase the base salaries of our executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer. In making these decisions, our compensation and talent management committee considered the current risks and challenges facing our company, our decision to forego the adoption of an annual cash bonus program, its objective of gradually positioning the target total cash compensation of our executive officers at levels that are more consistent with those of a public company in our industry, as well as the factors described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Compensation-Setting Process” above. We recognize that our Chief Executive Officer’s base salary is significantly lower than the peer group median, despite his success in the role and our willingness to pay him a market-based salary. However, at our Chief Executive Officer’s request to weight more of his target total direct compensation to variable pay in the form of long-term incentive compensation, our compensation and talent management committee determined to maintain his base salary at its 2019 and 2020 levels, other than a nominal increase for rounding purposes.

The base salaries of our named executive officers for 2020 and 2021 (effective January 1, 2021) were as follows:


Named Executive Officer	2020 Base Salary		2021 Base Salary
Mr. Lawson	$	133,700	$	134,000
Mr. Shipchandler (1)	$	624,000	$	1,100,000
Mr. Boroditsky (2)		—	$	500,000
Mr. Manor (3)		—	$	900,000
Mr. Wagner (4)		—	$	600,000
Mr. Hu (5)	$	671,000	$	738,000
Mr. Chew (6)	$	462,000	$	508,000

(1)	In connection with Mr. Shipchandler’s appointment as Chief Operating Officer in October 2021, his base salary increased. The table reflects his increased base salary as of December 31, 2021, and his total salary compensation received for 2021 is reflected in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

(2)	Mr. Boroditsky was not an executive officer in 2020. Mr. Boroditsky’s base salary increased in connection with his appointment to an expanded role in his position as Chief Revenue Officer in October 2021. The table reflects his increased base salary as of December 31, 2021, and his total salary

compensation received for 2021 is reflected in the “Summary Compensation Table” below. In addition, as Mr. Boroditsky’s responsibilities are focused on sales, his total compensation received for 2021 includes sales commissions, as described in “Cash Incentives” and reflected in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

(3)	Mr. Manor joined us as Chief Product Officer in November 2021 and his base salary was established at that time. Mr. Manor’s prorated salary for 2021 is reflected in his salary compensation in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

(4)	Mr. Wagner joined us as Chief Legal Officer in December 2021 and his base salary was established at that time. Mr. Wagner’s prorated salary for 2021 is reflected in his salary compensation in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

(5)	Mr. Hu resigned as Chief Operating Officer effective October 2021 and remained employed as a strategic advisor through fiscal year 2021.

(6)	Mr. Chew’s employment with the Company ended effective May 17, 2021.

The actual base salaries paid to our named executive officers in 2021 are set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

Cash Incentives

As our Chief Revenue Officer, Mr. Boroditsky’s responsibilities are focused on sales and his compensation includes participation in our sales commission plan (the “

Sales Commission Plan

”) with terms that are aligned with the results achieved by our global sales team.

For fiscal 2021, after considering competitive market data in consultation with a leading third-party consultancy for sales compensation, Mr. Boroditsky’s commission opportunity for fiscal 2021 was determined to be equal to 100% of his annual base salary, consistent with his opportunity for the prior fiscal year. The Sales Commission Plan is designed to reward Mr. Boroditsky based on annual performance of total estimated annual recurring revenue (“

eARR

”), software eARR and company revenue metrics, paid monthly. Mr. Boroditsky’s monthly payouts are based on performance against the annual target, additive, with no cap. The performance target levels for Mr. Boroditsky were designed to be challenging to achieve. The Sales Commission Plan and performance criteria are evaluated annually with an eye to reducing risks while appropriately incentivizing performance.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

We view long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards as a critical element of our executive compensation program. The realized value of these equity awards bears a direct relationship to our stock price, and, therefore, these awards are an incentive for our executive officers, including our named executive officers, to create value for our stockholders. Equity awards also help us retain qualified executive officers in a competitive market.

Long-term incentive compensation opportunities in the form of equity awards are granted by our compensation and talent management committee on a regularly-scheduled basis, as described in “Other Compensation Policies and Practices—Equity Awards Grant Policy” below. The amount and forms of such equity awards are determined by our compensation and talent management committee after considering the factors described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Compensation-Setting Process” above. The amounts of the equity awards are also intended to provide

competitively-sized

awards and resulting target total direct compensation opportunities that are competitive with the compensation opportunities offered by the companies in our compensation peer group and Radford Survey data for similar roles and positions for each of our executive officers, taking into consideration the factors described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Compensation-Setting Process” above.

In 2021, our compensation and talent management committee determined that the equity awards to be granted to our executive officers should be in the form of time-based stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock and time-based RSUs that may be settled for shares of our Class A common stock. Our compensation and talent management committee determined to grant equity awards in the form of 50% (by fair value) stock options and 50% (by fair value) time-based RSUs. Stock options only have value if our stock price appreciates above the exercise price thereof. Both stock options and RSUs have retention value over the vesting period. In determining the size of the individual grants to our executive officers, our compensation and talent management committee considered the factors described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Compensation-Setting Process” above, with emphasis on our exceptional growth in size and revenue during 2020. In addition, our compensation and talent management committee focused on the fact that many of our executive officers are in high demand in the market due, in part, to our excellent performance in 2020. Therefore, our compensation and talent management committee considered how best to retain our talent. In determining the size of the equity grants made to our Chief Executive Officer, the compensation and talent management committee also factored in Mr. Lawson’s relatively low base salary.

After consideration of these factors, our compensation and talent management committee determined to grant equity awards to our executive officers with a value in the range of the 70

percentile to the 85

percentile of our peer group range. Our compensation and talent management committee determined that the value of these awards was appropriate and necessary to sufficiently reward exceptional performance, to motivate our executive officers for continued effort to create value for our stockholders and to help ensure retention in a competitive market. Importantly, our compensation and talent management committee also determined to maintain the prior deviation from the historic vesting schedules for executive awards to balance the magnitude of the awards, and also to motivate long-term retention and team stability. Therefore, the stock options and RSUs granted to our executive officers in February 2021 vest over four years with 33% vesting in equal quarterly installments between the first and second anniversaries of the vesting commencement date of December 31, 2020, 33% vesting in equal quarterly installments between the second and third anniversaries of the vesting commencement date of December 31, 2020 and 34% vesting in equal quarterly installments between the third and fourth anniversaries of the vesting commencement date of December 31, 2020, subject to the executive’s continued employment with us. In addition to the February 2021 grants, our compensation and talent management committee also granted equity awards to certain executive officers in 2021 in connection with new hires and promotions with specific vesting schedules, as described further in “Executive Compensation—Additional Executive Officer Awards” and “Executive Compensation—Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” below.

After considering the factors described in “Oversight of Executive Compensation Program—Compensation-Setting Process” above, our compensation and talent management committee approved the following equity awards in February 2021 for our then-existing named executive officers in 2021 as part of its annual executive compensation review:


Named Executive Officer	Stock Options to Purchase Shares of Class A Common Stock (number of shares)		Time-Based RSUs (number of shares)		Aggregate Grant Date Fair Value ($) (1)
Jeff Lawson		34,132		18,345	$	13,927,474
Khozema Shipchandler (2)		18,126		9,742	$	7,396,184
George Hu		18,126		9,742	$	7,396,184
Chee Chew (3)		18,126		9,742	$	7,396,184

(1)	The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs and stock options granted to the named executive officer in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021,

calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Such aggregate grant date fair values do not take into account any estimated forfeitures related to service-vesting conditions. The valuation assumptions used in determining such amounts are described in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022. The amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these RSUs and stock options and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the named executive officers upon the vesting or settlement of the RSUs or the exercise of the stock options or sale of the shares of common stock underlying such stock options.

(2)

In connection with his appointment as Chief Operating Officer in October 2021, Mr. Shipchandler also received (1) a

one-time

stock option award with a grant date fair value of $2,303,576 and (2) a

one-time

restricted stock unit award with a grant date fair value of $2,231,126. Please see “Summary Compensation Table” and “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” for additional information.

Additional Executive Officer Awards

Mr. Manor received a

(1) one-time

stock option award with a grant date fair value of $8,098,119 and

(2) one-time

restricted stock units award with a grant date fair value of $33,687,986 in connection with his commencement of employment with us in November 2021. The shares subject to the option vest over four years in equal monthly installments, and the RSUs vest over four years, with 1/16th of the RSUs vesting on February 15, 2022 and the remaining RSUs vesting in equal quarterly installments, in each case subject to continued employment with us.

Mr. Boroditsky received a

(1) one-time

stock option award with a grant date fair value of $5,158,566 and

(2) one-time

restricted stock units award with a grant date fair value of $5,131,560 in connection with his expanded role in his position as Chief Revenue Officer in October 2021. The shares subject to this option vest in 24 equal monthly installments, and the RSUs vest over two years, with 1/8th of the RSU vesting on November 15, 2021 and the remaining RSUs vesting in equal quarterly installments, in each case subject to continued employment with us.

Mr. Shipchandler also received (1) a

one-time

stock option award with a grant date fair value of $2,303,576 and (2) a

one-time

restricted stock unit award with a grant date fair value of $2,231,126 in connection with this appointment as Chief Operating Officer, with vesting schedules consistent with his February 2021 awards. Mr. Wagner commenced employment with us in December 2021 and did not receive any equity awards in fiscal 2021, but was granted a new hire RSU award in January 2022 in accordance with his employment offer letter. Please see “Summary Compensation Table,” “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” and “Employment Agreements or Offer Letters with Named Executive Officers” below for additional information.

Stock Options

We believe that stock options provide a strong reward for growth in the market price of our common stock as their entire value depends on future stock price appreciation, as well as a strong incentive for our executive officers to remain employed with our Company as they require continued service to our Company through the vesting period. In 2021, the stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock that were granted by our compensation and talent management committee generally had a

10-year

term. To balance retention and incentive dynamics for the stock option grants made in February 2021, the vesting schedule for such grants were set as follows: 33% of the shares subject to the stock option vest in equal quarterly installments between the first and second anniversaries of the “vesting commencement date” (December 31, 2020), 33% of the shares subject to the stock option vest in equal quarterly installments between the second and third anniversaries of the vesting commencement date and 34% of

the shares subject to the stock option vest in equal quarterly installments between the third and fourth anniversaries of the vesting commencement date, subject to continued employment through each such vesting date. The options subject to Mr. Borodistky’s October 2021 grant expire three years from the date of his separation from service due to termination by the company without Cause or by Mr. Boroditsky for Good Reason, as those terms are defined in the Boroditsky Letter (as defined below), or 10 years from the date of the grant, whichever comes first.

Stock options granted by our compensation and talent management committee to newly-hired executives generally have had a

10-year

term and generally vested as to 25% of the shares subject to the stock option on the first anniversary of the employment commencement date and 1/48

of the shares subject to the stock option each month thereafter for the following three years, subject to continued service through each such vesting date. Effective February 1, 2022, and applicable retrospectively to affected employees, stock options previously granted to our executive officers vest in equal monthly installments from the applicable vesting commencement date, subject to the executive’s continued employment with us. Please see “Summary Compensation Table” and “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” below for additional information.

Time-Based RSUs

We believe time-based RSUs also provide a strong retention incentive for our executive officers, provide a moderate reward for growth in the value of our Class A common stock and, because they use fewer shares than stock options, are less dilutive to our stockholders. In 2021, similar to the stock option grants, in order to balance retention and incentive dynamics for the time-based RSU grants that may be settled in shares of our Class A common stock, the vesting schedule for such grants were set as follows: 33% of the shares subject to the award vest in equal quarterly installments between the first and second anniversaries of the “vesting commencement date” (December 31, 2020), 33% of the shares subject to the award vest in equal quarterly installments between the second and third anniversaries of the vesting commencement date and 34% of the shares subject to the award vest in equal quarterly installments between the third and fourth anniversaries of the vesting commencement date, subject to continued employment through each such vesting date.

Time-based RSUs that may be settled in shares of our Class A common stock that were granted by our compensation and talent management committee to newly-hired executives generally vested as to 25% of the shares subject to the award on the first anniversary of the first August 15, November 15, February 15 or May 15 to occur following the employment commencement date and 1/16

of the shares subject to the award each quarter thereafter for the following three years, subject to continued employment through each such vesting date. Effective February 1, 2022, and applicable retrospectively to affected employees, RSUs granted to new executive officers vest in equal quarterly installments from the applicable vesting commencement date, subject to the executive’s continued employment with us.

The equity awards granted to our named executive officers in 2021 are set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” and the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” below.

Health and Welfare Benefits

Our executive officers, including our named executive officers, are eligible to receive the same employee benefits that are generally available to all of our full-time employees, subject to the satisfaction of certain eligibility requirements. These benefits include our medical, dental and vision insurance and life and disability insurance plans. In structuring these benefit plans, we seek to provide an aggregate level of benefits that are comparable to those provided by similar companies.

In addition, we maintain a

tax-qualified

Section 401(k) retirement plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a

tax-advantaged

basis. Plan participants are able to defer eligible compensation subject to the applicable annual limits set forth in the Internal Revenue

Code of 1986, as amended (the “

Code

”). In 2021, we matched 50% of the first 6% of contributions by plan participants, subject to annual contribution limits set forth in the Code. We have the ability to make discretionary contributions to the Section 401(k) plan but have not done so to date. The Section 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code with the plan’s related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a

tax-qualified

retirement plan, contributions to the Section 401(k) plan and earnings on those contributions are not taxable to the employees until distributed from the Section 401(k) plan.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

Currently, we do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not provide significant perquisites or other personal benefits to our executive officers, including our named executive officers, except as generally made available to our employees, or in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to award long-standing service to us, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective and for recruitment and retention purposes.

During 2021, none of our named executive officers received perquisites or other personal benefits that were, in the aggregate, $10,000 or more for each individual, except for Mr. Lawson, our Chief Executive Officer, for whom we paid $3,350 for our matching contributions to his Section 401(k) account in 2021, and his $280,000 filing fee under HSR, as well as $5,595 and $275,335, respectively, for the related legal fees and tax

gross-up.

We believe that reimbursing our Chief Executive Officer for the HSR filing fee and its related legal fees and tax consequences was consistent with our decision to continue to compensate him almost entirely through equity-compensation arrangements. Absent this regulatory filing, our Chief Executive Officer would not be able to participate in our long-term incentive compensation program and, therefore, we determined that it was appropriate for us to reimburse him for this filing fee and any related tax liabilities.

In the future, we may provide perquisites or other personal benefits in limited circumstances. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits will be approved and subject to periodic review by our compensation and talent management committee.

Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements

We believe that having in place reasonable and competitive post-employment compensation arrangements are essential to attracting and retaining highly qualified executive officers. In connection with our initial public offering in 2016, we adopted an executive severance plan (as amended and restated in June 2017, the “

Amended and Restated Executive Severance Plan

”) to provide more standardized severance payments and benefits to our executive officers. In March 2018, we divided our Amended and Restated Executive Severance Plan into three separate plans, which we further amended in March 2022. Our three plans currently apply to our Chief Executive Officer (the “

CEO Severance Plan

”), our key executive officers and senior vice-president level employees (the “

Key Executive Severance Plan

”, together with our CEO Severance Plan, the “

Executive Severance Plans

”) and our vice president-level employees (the “

VP Severance Plan

”). Our Chief Executive Officer participates in the CEO Severance Plan and our other named executive officers participate in the Key Executive Severance Plan.

The Executive Severance Plans, as discussed in more detail in “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control—Executive Severance Plans” below are designed to help ensure the continued service of key executive officers in the event of a potential acquisition, to provide reasonable compensation to executive officers who leave our employ under specified circumstances and to align the interests of our executive officers and our stockholders when considering our long-term future.

We believe that the severance payments and benefits provided to our executive officers under the Executive Severance Plans are appropriate in light of the post-employment compensation protections

available to similarly-situated executive officers at companies in our compensation peer group and are an important component of each executive officer’s overall compensation as they help us to attract and retain our key executives who could have other job alternatives that may appear to them to be more attractive absent these protections.

We also believe that the occurrence or potential occurrence of a change in control transaction will create uncertainty regarding the continued employment of our executive officers. In order to encourage them to remain employed with us during an important time when their prospects for continued employment following the transaction are often uncertain, we provide our executive officers with the opportunity to receive additional severance protections during a change in control protection period. In addition, we provide additional payment and benefit protections if an executive officer voluntarily terminates employment with us for good reason in connection with a change in control of our Company, because we believe that a voluntary termination of employment for good reason is essentially equivalent to an involuntary termination of employment by us without cause. The primary purpose of these arrangements is to keep our most senior executive officers focused on pursuing potential corporate transactions that are in the best interests of our stockholders regardless of whether those transactions may result in their own job loss. Reasonable post-acquisition payments and benefits should serve the interests of both the executive officer and our stockholders.

To protect our Company’s interests, we require all participants of the Executive Severance Plans to sign a standard form of general release in favor of the Company prior to receiving any severance payments or benefits under the applicable plan.

In addition, under the Executive Severance Plans, all payments and benefits provided in the event of a change in control of the Company are payable only if there is a qualifying loss of employment by a named executive officer (commonly referred to as a “double-trigger” arrangement). In the case of the acceleration of vesting of outstanding equity awards, we use this double-trigger arrangement to protect against the loss of retention value following a change in control of the Company and to avoid windfalls, both of which could occur if the vesting of equity awards accelerated automatically as a result of the transaction.

We do not provide excise tax payments (or

“gross-ups”)

relating to a change in control of our Company and have no such obligations in place with respect to any of our named executive officers.

For detailed descriptions of the post-employment compensation arrangements we maintain with our named executive officers, as well as an estimate of the potential payments and benefits payable to our named executive officers under their post-employment compensation arrangements, see “Employment Agreements or Offer Letters with Named Executive Officers” and “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Other Compensation Policies and Practices

Equity Awards Grant Policy

Under our Amended and Restated Equity Award Grant Policy, we generally grant equity awards on a regularly scheduled basis to enhance the effectiveness of our internal control over our equity award grant process and to alleviate several of the burdens related to accounting for such equity awards, as follows:

•

Any grants of equity awards made in conjunction with the hiring of a new employee or the promotion of an existing employee will be made, if at all, regularly (either monthly or quarterly) and will be effective on the date such grant is approved by our board of directors or our compensation and talent management committee or such future date as is approved by our board of directors or our compensation and talent management committee. In no event will the effective date of an equity award made in conjunction with the hiring of a new employee precede the first date of employment.

•

Any grants of equity awards to existing employees (other than in connection with a promotion) will generally be made, if at all, on an annual or quarterly basis. Any such annual or quarterly grant will be effective on the date on which such grant is approved or such future date as is approved by our board of directors or our compensation and talent management committee.

•

All equity awards will be priced on the effective date of the award. The exercise price of all stock options will be equal to the closing market price on The New York Stock Exchange of one share of our Class A common stock on the effective date of grant, or, if no closing price is reported for such date, the closing price on the last day preceding such date for which a closing price is reported. If the grant of restricted stock or of RSUs is denominated in dollars, the number of shares of restricted stock or RSUs that are granted will generally be calculated by dividing the dollar value of the approved award by the average closing market price on The New York Stock Exchange of one share of our Class A common stock over the trailing

30-day

period ending (i) five business days immediately prior to the effective date of grant for grants made pursuant to offer letters or award letters issued April 1, 2019 or later or (ii) on the last day of the month immediately prior to the month of the grant date for grants made pursuant to offer letters or award letters issued prior to April 1, 2019, with such total number of shares to be granted per recipient rounded up to the nearest whole share.

•

Our board of directors or our compensation and talent management committee may delegate to a committee comprising at least two of our executive officers all or part of the authority with respect to the granting of certain equity awards to employees (other than to such delegates), subject to certain limitations and requirements. Our board of directors and compensation and talent management committee have currently delegated authority to a subcommittee consisting of our Chief Operating Officer, Chief People Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Senior Vice President, Finance, to grant, without any further action required by the compensation and talent management committee, equity awards to all employees, except our executive officers, senior vice presidents and vice presidents. The purpose of this delegation of authority is to enhance the flexibility of equity award administration and to facilitate the timely grant of equity awards to

non-management

employees, particularly new employees, within specified limits approved from time to time by the compensation and talent management committee. As part of its oversight function, the compensation and talent management committee will review the list of grants made by the subcommittee at each regularly scheduled

in-person

meeting.

Death Equity Acceleration Policy

In December 2020, the compensation and talent management committee approved a policy providing that upon the termination due to death of an employee’s or

non-employee

director’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any then outstanding equity awards held by the individual that vest solely based on continued employment or service will automatically receive two years of supplemental vesting. The policy applies both to awards granted prior to the adoption of the policy, as well as awards granted thereafter.

Policy Prohibiting Hedging and Pledging of Equity Securities

Our Amended and Restated Insider Trading Policy prohibits our employees, including our executive officers, and the

non-employee

members of our board of directors from engaging in any short sale and from buying or selling puts, calls, other derivative securities or any derivative securities that provide the economic equivalent of ownership of any of our securities or an opportunity, direct or indirect, to profit from any change in the value of our securities or engage in any other hedging transaction with respect to our securities, at any time. In addition, our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our employees, including our executive officers, and the

non-employee

members of our board of directors from using our securities as collateral in a margin account or from pledging our securities as collateral for a loan.

Stock Ownership Policy

To further align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders and to promote a long-term perspective in managing our Company, in April 2018, we adopted a stock ownership policy for our Chief Executive Officer and executive officers subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (“

Section

16 Officers

”), including each of our named executive officers. We amended and restated this stock ownership policy in September 2020 and in March 2022. In March 2022, we revised the stock ownership policy to, among other things, increase the salary-multiple for our named executive officers (other than our Chief Executive Officer) from one time to three times his or her annual base salary, eliminate

pre-established

share number thresholds, and eliminate vested but unexercised

in-the-money

options from the share ownership calculation.

Our stock ownership policy, as amended, requires each named executive officer to acquire and hold a number of shares of our common stock equal in value to a multiple of such named executive officer’s annual base salary until he or she ceases to be our Chief Executive Officer or a Section 16 Officer, as applicable. The multiple for our Chief Executive Officer is six times his annual base salary and the multiple for our other named executive officers is three times his or her annual base salary. For purposes of our stock ownership policy, we only count directly and beneficially owned shares, including shares purchased through our 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as amended and restated, the “

ESPP

”) or Section 401(k) Plan, if applicable, and shares underlying vested RSUs that are held or deferred. Each named executive officer has five years from the later of his or her designation as our Chief Executive Officer or Section 16 Officer, as applicable, or from the original effective date of the policy to obtain the required ownership level.

Compensation Recovery Policy

We intend to adopt a compensation recovery (“clawback”) policy once the SEC adopts final rules implementing the requirement of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Under Section 162(m) of the Internal Code (“

Section

162(m)

”), compensation paid to each of the Company’s “covered employees” that exceeds $1 million per taxable year is generally

non-deductible.

Although our compensation and talent management committee will continue to consider tax implications as one factor in determining executive compensation, it also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to provide compensation for our executive officers in a manner consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program and the best interests of our stockholders, which may include providing for compensation that is not deductible by us due to the deduction limit under Section 162(m).

Taxation of “Parachute” Payments

Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code provide that executive officers and directors who hold significant equity interests and certain other service providers may be subject to significant additional taxes if they receive payments or benefits in connection with a change in control of the Company that exceeds certain prescribed limits, and that the Company (or a successor) may forfeit a deduction on the amounts subject to this additional tax. We have not agreed to provide any executive officer, including any named executive officer, with a

“gross-up”

or other reimbursement payment for any tax liability that the executive officer might owe as a result of the application of Sections 280G or 4999 of the Code.

Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code

Section 409A of the Code imposes additional significant taxes in the event that an executive officer, director or service provider receives “deferred compensation” that does not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Although we do not maintain a traditional nonqualified deferred compensation plan for our executive officers, Section 409A of the Code does apply to certain severance arrangements, bonus arrangements and equity awards, and we have structured all such arrangements and awards in a manner to either avoid or comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code. For our

non-employee

directors, we provide a

Non-Employee

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Program, which has been structured to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We follow the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“

FASB ASC Topic 718

”) for our stock-based compensation awards. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires us to measure the compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to our employees and

non-employee

members of our board of directors, including options to purchase shares of our common stock and other stock awards, based on the grant date fair value of these awards. This cost is recognized as an expense following the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the executive compensation tables required by the federal securities laws, even though the recipient of the awards may never realize any value from such awards.

Compensation Risk Assessment

In consultation with management and Compensia, our compensation and talent management committee’s independent compensation consultant, in March 2021, our compensation and talent management committee assessed our compensation plans, policies and practices for named executive officers and other employees and concluded that they do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. This risk assessment included, among other things, a review of our cash and equity incentive-based compensation plans to ensure that they are aligned with our performance goals and overall target total direct compensation to ensure an appropriate balance between fixed and variable pay components. Our compensation and talent management committee conducts this assessment annually.

Compensation and Talent Management Committee Report

Our compensation and talent management committee has reviewed and discussed the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” with management. Based on such review and discussion, our compensation and talent management committee has recommended to the board of directors that the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” be included in this Amendment No.1 to our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Respectfully submitted by the members of our compensation and talent management committee of the board of directors:

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Executive Severance Plans

We maintain three separate executive severance plans (i.e., the Chief Executive Officer Severance Plan and Key Executive Severance Plan, collectively the “

Executive Severance Plans

,” and the VP Severance Plan). We do not provide for any severance or change in control payments or benefits in our named executive officers’ employment offer letters (except for limited vesting acceleration provisions in our Chief Revenue Officer’s promotion letter). Each of our named executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Principal Financial Officer, is a participant in the applicable Executive Severance Plan, as further described below. The Executive Severance Plans provide for certain payments and benefits in the event of a termination of employment, including an involuntary termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company.

Our Executive Severance Plans provide that upon a termination of employment by us for any reason other than for “

cause

” (as defined in the applicable Executive Severance Plan), death or disability outside of the change in control period (i.e., the period beginning three months prior to and ending 12 months after, a “

change in control

,” as defined in the applicable Executive Severance Plan), an eligible participant will be entitled to receive, subject to the execution and delivery of an effective release of claims in our favor, (i) a lump sum cash payment equal to nine months of base salary for our Chief Executive Officer, and six months of base salary for our other named executive officers, and (ii) a monthly cash payment for up to nine months for our Chief Executive Officer and up to six months for our other named executive officers equal to the monthly contribution we would have made to provide health insurance to the named executive officer if he or she had remained employed by us. Pursuant to the CEO Severance Plan, our Chief Executive Officer is also entitled to such benefits upon a resignation of employment for “

good reason

” (as defined in the CEO Severance Plan) outside of the change in control period. In addition, upon a (i) termination of employment by us other than due to cause, death or disability or (ii) a resignation of employment for “

good reason

”, in each case, outside of the change in control period, our Chief Executive Officer will be entitled to 12 months of acceleration of vesting for outstanding and unvested time-based equity awards.

The Executive Severance Plans also provide that upon a (i) termination of employment by us other than due to cause, death or disability or (ii) a resignation of employment for “

good reason

” (as defined in the applicable Executive Severance Plan), in each case, within the change in control period, an eligible participant will be entitled to receive, in lieu of the payments and benefits above and subject to the execution and delivery of an effective release of claims in our favor, (1) a lump sum cash payment equal to 18 months of base salary for our Chief Executive Officer and 12 months of base salary for our other named executive officers, (2) a monthly cash payment for up to 18 months for our Chief Executive Officer and up to 12 months for our other named executive officers equal to the monthly contribution we would have made to provide health insurance to the named executive officer if he or she had remained employed by us, and (3) full accelerated vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards held by our named executive officers; provided, that the performance conditions applicable to any stock-based awards subject to performance conditions will be deemed satisfied at the target level specified in the terms of the applicable award agreement.

The payments and benefits provided under the Executive Severance Plans in connection with a change in control may not be eligible for a federal income tax deduction by us pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. These payments and benefits may also subject an eligible participant, including the named executive officers, to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code. If the payments or benefits payable to an eligible participant in connection with a change in control would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, then those payments or benefits will be reduced if such reduction would result in a higher net

after-tax

benefit to him or her.

Other Change in Control and Severance Arrangements

The following table presents information concerning estimated payments and benefits that would be provided in the circumstances described above for each of the named executive officers who were serving as named executive officers as of the end of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. Messrs. Hu and Chew resigned as of October 27, 2021 and May 17, 2021, respectively, and received no compensation in connection with their terminations.

The payments and benefits set forth below are estimated assuming that the termination or change in control event occurred on the last business day of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 using the closing market price of our stock on that date. Actual payments and benefits could be different if such events were to occur on any other date or at any other price or if any other assumptions are used to estimate potential payments and benefits.

CEO Pay Ratio

Pursuant to SEC rules, we are required to provide information regarding the relationship between the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, and the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (other than our Chief Executive Officer) for the year ended December 31, 2021:

•

the annual total compensation of our median employee was $166,789; and

•

the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer was $14,625,745, as reported in the “Total Compensation” column in the “Summary Compensation Table” included in this Amendment.

Based on this information, for 2021, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees was 88:1. We believe this ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation

S-K

under the Exchange Act.

As a result of the increase in our number of employees from 4,629 employees as of December 31, 2020 to 7,867 employees as of December 31, 2021, we elected to identify a new median employee as of December 31, 2021. In doing so, we used the same methodology we employed to identify the median employee as of December 31, 2020. Specifically, as permitted by SEC rules, we reviewed total direct compensation based on our consistently applied compensation measure, which we calculated as actual salary paid to our employees for 2021, actual sales commission earned by our employees in 2021, and the grant date fair value of equity awards granted to our employees in 2021.

We used December 31, 2021 to determine our employee population. In determining this population, we included all worldwide full-time and part-time employees other than our Chief Executive Officer. We excluded contractors, workers employed through a third-party provider, individuals with zero pay in 2021, and 380 employees of ValueFirst Digital Media Private Limited, which was acquired by us in 2021, from our employee population. For employees paid in other than U.S. dollars, we converted their compensation to U.S. dollars using the exchange rates used by us for various purposes in effect on December 31, 2021 and did not make any

cost-of-living

adjustments to such compensation. We did not annualize total direct compensation for employees employed by us for less than the full fiscal year. Using our consistently applied compensation measure, we identified a median employee who is a full-time U.S.-based salaried employee.

Once we selected the individual who represented the median employee, we then calculated the annual total compensation for this employee using the same methodology we used for our named executive officers in our 2021 Summary Compensation Table to yield the median annual total compensation disclosed above.

The SEC’s rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. We believe our methodologies are reasonable and best reflect how we view these metrics. However, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

Non-Employee

Director Compensation

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy

We have adopted a compensation policy for our

non-employee

directors (as amended and restated from time to time, the “

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy

”) to attract, retain and award these individuals and align their long-term interests with those of the Company and our stockholders. Our

non-employee

directors are paid in the form of restricted stock units (“

RSUs

”) only and do not receive cash compensation. Employee directors receive no additional compensation for their service as a director.

Decisions regarding the

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy are approved by our board of directors based on recommendations from our compensation and talent management committee. Our compensation and talent management committee conducts an annual evaluation of the design and

competitiveness of our

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy in light of best practices, market trends and a competitive market analysis of data for the Company’s compensation peer group prepared by its compensation consultant, and makes appropriate recommendations to our board of directors with respect to the compensation of our

non-employee

directors.

During 2021, our compensation and talent management committee engaged Compensia, Inc. (“

Compensia

”), a national compensation consulting firm, as its compensation consultant to advise on, among other things,

non-employee

director compensation matters. In doing so, our compensation and talent management committee reviewed and considered a peer group compensation data analysis prepared by Compensia. Our compensation and talent management committee targeted

non-employee

director compensation, to consist solely of RSUs, to the 50

percentile relative to our peers. In May 2021, upon the recommendation of the compensation and talent management committee, our board of directors approved the following changes to our

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy for fiscal 2021: (i) increase the annual equity retainer for the lead independent director from $20,000 to $23,000; (ii) increase the annual equity retainer for members of the audit committee (other than the chairperson) from $11,000 to $13,000; (iii) increase the annual equity retainer for the audit committee chairperson from $22,000 to $26,000; (iv) increase the annual equity retainer for members of the compensation and talent management committee (other than the chairperson) from $9,000 to $10,000; (v) increase the annual equity retainer for the compensation and talent management committee chairperson from $18,000 to $20,000; (vi) increase the annual equity retainer for members of the nominating and corporate governance committee (other than the chairperson) from $5,000 to $6,000 (vii) increase the annual equity retainer for the nominating and corporate governance committee chairperson from $10,000 to $12,000; (viii) increase the Initial Equity Grant (as defined below) from $440,000 to $575,000; and (ix) pay all annual retainers for board membership, lead independent director and committee membership in the form of RSUs in lieu of cash compensation.

For purposes of the amounts described in this section, the values are calculated as set forth in the

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy. For the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs awarded to the

non-employee

directors in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, please see “2021

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Table” below.

Annual Equity Retainers

For fiscal 2021, our

non-employee

directors received compensation in the form of RSUs only, the values of which are as set forth below.


Annual Equity Retainer for Board Membership
Annual service on the board of directors	$	40,000
Additional Annual Equity Retainer for Lead Independent Director	$	23,000
Additional Annual Equity Retainer for Committee Membership
Annual service as member of the audit committee (other than chairperson)	$	13,000
Annual service as chairperson of the audit committee	$	26,000
Annual service as member of the compensation and talent management committee (other than chairperson)	$	10,000
Annual service as chairperson of the compensation and talent management committee	$	20,000
Annual service as member of the nominating and corporate governance committee (other than chairperson)	$	6,000
Annual service as chairperson of the nominating and corporate governance committee	$	12,000

Annual Equity Grants

In addition, on the date of our annual meeting of stockholders, each

non-employee

director who continued as a member of our board of directors following such annual meeting of stockholders received a grant of RSUs having a value of $250,000 (the “

Annual Equity Grant

”).

During fiscal year 2021, the number of RSUs for the Annual Equity Grant was determined by dividing the applicable values by the average closing market price on The New York Stock Exchange (or such other market on which the Company’s Class A common stock is then principally listed) of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock over the trailing

30-day

period ending five business days before the effective date of the grant.

The Annual Equity Retainer and Annual Equity Grants are granted in four quarterly installments over the course of the year that commences on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, with such grants to be made on each September 15, December 15, March 15, and the earlier of (i) June 15 or (ii) the day that is immediately prior to the next subsequent annual meeting of stockholders (each such date, a “

Quarterly Date

,” and each such grant, a “

Quarterly Grant

”). The value of each Quarterly Grant shall be equal to the value of the portion of the Annual Equity Retainer and Annual Equity Grants applicable to the period beginning on the day after the immediately preceding Quarterly Date and ending on the then-current Quarterly Date (the “

Quarterly Period

”), based on the board and committee roles held by the

non-employee

director during such Quarterly Period. Each Quarterly Grant shall be fully vested upon the date of grant.

Initial Equity Grants

Our

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy during fiscal year 2021 provided that, upon initial election to our board of directors, each

non-employee

director would be granted RSUs having a value of $575,000 (the “

Initial Equity Grant

”). The Initial Equity Grant vests in equal annual installments over three years, subject to continued service as a director through the applicable vesting dates; provided, however, that if a

non-employee

director is elected on a date other than at the annual meeting of stockholders,

one-third

(1/3rd) of such value shall be

pro-rated

by the amount of time between such election and the next annual meeting of stockholders and such

pro-rated

portion shall vest on the day prior to the next annual meeting of stockholders, with the other

two-thirds

(2/3rds) vesting annually over the following two years following such initial vesting date.

During fiscal year 2021, the number of RSUs for the Initial Equity Grant was determined by dividing the applicable value by the average closing market price on The New York Stock Exchange (or such other market on which the Company’s Class A common stock is then principally listed) of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock over the trailing

30-day

period ending five business days before the effective date of the grant.

Awards granted under our

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy are subject to full accelerated vesting upon a “sale event,” as defined in our 2016 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the “

2016 Plan

”).

Our

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Policy also provides that, pursuant to the 2016 Plan, the aggregate amount of compensation, including both equity compensation and cash compensation, paid to any

non-employee

director in a calendar year will not exceed $750,000 (or such other limit as may be set forth in the 2016 Plan or any similar provision of a successor plan).

We also reimburse all reasonable

out-of-pocket

expenses incurred by our

non-employee

directors for their attendance at meetings of our board of directors or any committee thereof.

Changes to

Non-Employee

Director Compensation effective for Fiscal 2022

Following a review with Compensia of peer company board compensation trends in March 2022, our compensation and talent management committee recommended, and our board of directors approved, the

following changes to our

non-employee

director compensation effective fiscal 2022, targeting

non-employee

director compensation to the 50

percentile relative to our peers: (i) increase the annual equity retainer for the lead independent director from $23,000 to $30,000 and (ii) increase the annual equity retainer for all

non-employee

members of the board of directors from $40,000 to $45,000.

Non-Employee

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Program

In July 2017, we implemented a

Non-Employee

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Program to offer our

non-employee

directors the ability to defer the receipt of any RSUs granted to them from Initial Grants or Annual Grants under the 2016 Plan. In advance of an award of RSUs and in compliance with the program’s requirements, a

non-employee

director may elect to defer the receipt of all of his or her RSUs until the earliest of (i) 90 days after such

non-employee

director ceases to serve as a member of our board of directors; (ii) the consummation of a “sale event”; or (iii) 90 days after the

non-employee

director’s death (such earliest date, the “

Payment Event

”). Upon the vesting of the RSUs, any amounts that would otherwise have been paid in shares of Company common stock will be converted into deferred stock units (“

DSUs

”) on a

one-to-one

basis and credited to the

non-employee

director’s deferral account. The DSUs will be paid in shares of Company Class A common stock on a

one-to-one

basis in a single lump sum (and will cease to be held in the

non-employee

director’s deferred account) as soon as practicable following the Payment Event.

Death Equity Acceleration Policy

See “Executive Compensation—Other Compensation Policies and Practices—Death Equity Acceleration Policy” for a discussion of the treatment of equity awards upon the termination due to death of an employee’s or

non-employee

director’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Stock Ownership Policy

In April 2018, we adopted a stock ownership policy for our

non-employee

directors, which was amended and restated in September 2020 and March 2022. Our stock ownership policy, as amended, requires our

non-employee

directors to acquire and hold a number of shares of our Company’s common stock equal in value to five times (increased from four times in March 2022) the director’s annual retainer for regular service on the board of directors. We only count directly and beneficially owned shares, including shares purchased through our Company’s 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as amended and restated, the “

ESPP

”) or Section 401(k) plan, if applicable, and shares underlying vested RSUs that are held or deferred. We do not count shares underlying vested but unexercised

in-the-money

stock options. Each

non-employee

director has five years from the later of his or her initial election to the board of directors or from the effective date of the policy to attain the required ownership level.

2021

Non-Employee

Director Compensation Table

The following table provides information regarding the total compensation that was earned by or paid to each of our

non-employee

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table provides information as of December 31, 2021 with respect to the shares of our common stock that may be issued under our existing equity compensation plans. We will not grant equity awards in the future under any of the equity compensation plans not approved by stockholders included in the table below.

On February 1, 2019, in connection with our acquisition of SendGrid, Inc. (“

SendGrid

”), we assumed the shares reserved and available for issuance under SendGrid’s Amended and Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “

SendGrid 2009 Plan

”), Amended and Restated 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “

SendGrid 2012 Plan

”) and Amended and Restated 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “

SendGrid 2017 Plan

”), and such shares became available for issuance under our 2016 Plan. On November 2, 2020, in connection with our acquisition of Segment, we assumed outstanding Segment stock options and RSUs under Segment’s Fifth Amended and Restated 2013 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “

Segment 2013 Plan

”). On July 14, 2021, in connection with our acquisition of Zipwhip Inc. (“

Zipwhip

(3)

As of December 31, 2021, a total of 24,650,104 shares of our Class A common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2016 Plan. This number includes shares reserved and available for issuance under the SendGrid 2009 Plan, the SendGrid 2012 Plan and the SendGrid 2017 Plan that we assumed, which were approved by the stockholders of SendGrid, but not by a separate vote of our stockholders; such shares became available for issuance under our 2016 Plan, but awards using such shares may not be granted to individuals who were employed, immediately prior to the acquisition, by us or our subsidiaries. This number excludes the 9,023,405 shares that were added to the 2016 Plan as a result of the automatic annual increase on January 1, 2022. The 2016 Plan provides that the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2016 Plan will automatically increase each January 1, beginning on January 1, 2017, by 5% of the outstanding number of shares of our Class A and Class B common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser number of shares as determined by our compensation and talent management committee. This number will be subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. The shares of Class A and Class B common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, canceled, held back upon exercise or settlement of an award to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by us prior to vesting, satisfied without the issuance of stock, expire or are otherwise terminated, other than by exercise, under the 2016 Plan and the 2008 Plan will be added back to the

shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2016 Plan (provided, that any such shares of Class B common stock will first be converted into shares of Class A common stock). The Company no longer makes grants under the 2008 Plan. As of December 31, 2021, a total of 6,382,830 shares of our Class A common stock were available for future issuance pursuant to the ESPP, which number includes shares subject to purchase during the current purchase period, which commenced on November 16, 2021 (the exact number of which will not be known until the purchase date on May 13, 2022) but excludes the 1,800,000 shares that were added to the ESPP as a result of the automatic annual increase on January 1, 2022. Subject to the number of shares remaining in the share reserve, the maximum number of shares purchasable by any participant on any one purchase date for any purchase period, including the current purchase period may not exceed 5,000 shares. The ESPP provides that the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP will automatically increase each January 1, beginning on January 1, 2017, by the lesser of 1,800,000 shares of our Class A common stock, 1% of the outstanding number of shares of our Class A and Class B common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser number of shares as determined by our compensation and talent management committee. This number will be subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization.

In connection with our acquisitions of SendGrid, Segment and Zipwhip, we assumed outstanding SendGrid, Segment and Zipwhip options and RSUs. As of December 31, 2021, there were (a) 170,970 shares issuable under such outstanding SendGrid stock options (with a weighted-average exercise price of $20.5093) and 31,049 shares issuable under such outstanding SendGrid RSUs; (b) 504,587 shares issuable under such outstanding Segment stock options (with a weighted-average exercise price of $51.7840) and 86,004 shares issuable under such outstanding Segment RSUs; and (c) 74,596 shares issuable under such outstanding Zipwhip stock options (with a weighted-average exercise price of $50.7560) and 11,213 shares issuable under such outstanding Zipwhip RSUs. No further grants may be made under any of these plans.

Ownership of Securities

The following table sets forth certain information available to us with respect to the beneficial ownership of our capital stock as of March 31, 2022, for:

•

each of our named executive officers;

•

each of our directors;

•

all of our current directors and executive officers as a group; and

•

each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our Class A or Class B common stock.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and thus it represents sole or shared voting or investment power with respect to our securities. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable.

We have based our calculation of percentage ownership of our common stock on 171,763,174 shares of our Class A common stock and 9,820,605 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding on March 31, 2022. We have deemed shares of our capital stock subject to stock options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 31, 2022 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the stock option for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person. We have deemed shares of our capital stock subject to RSUs for which the service condition has been satisfied or would be satisfied within 60 days of March 31, 2022 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the RSUs for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person. However,

we did not deem these shares subject to stock options or RSUs outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o Twilio Inc., 101 Spear Street, First Floor, San Francisco, California 94105.

Item 13.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions, and Director Independence

Transactions with Related Persons

In addition to the compensation arrangements discussed in the section titled “Executive Compensation,” including employment, termination of employment and change in control arrangements, the following is a description of each transaction since the beginning of our last fiscal year, and each currently proposed transaction in which:

•

we have been or are to be a participant;

•

the amount involved exceeded or exceeds $120,000; and

•

any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Investors’ Rights Agreement

We are party to an investors’ rights agreement which provides, among other things, that certain holders of our capital stock have the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their shares of our capital stock be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing. The parties to the investors’ rights agreement include entities affiliated with Jeff Lawson, our Chief Executive Officer and current director, an entity affiliated with Jeff Epstein, our current director, Evan Cooke, a former director, and Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC and John Wolthuis, holders of more than 5% of our Class B common stock.

Sublease with Numenta

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, we entered into a sublease with Numenta, Inc. (“

Numenta

”), whereby we subleased 2,420 square feet of our unoccupied Redwood City office space to Numenta. Donna Dubinsky, a member of our board of directors, serves as the Chief Executive Officer and a director of Numenta. The sublease was entered into on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and at market rates. The term of the sublease is for 12 months commencing on August 1, 2021, with Numenta having the option to renew for two

12-month

extension periods. The rent was initially set at $18,225 per month, and if Numenta opts to renew the sublease, the rent for the first and second

12-month

extension periods includes set increases at $18,771.75 per month and $19,334.90 per month, respectively. If such options to renew are exercised by Numenta, the aggregate payments expected to be made under the sublease over the 36 month period is approximately $675,979.80, which is in compliance with the NYSE and LTSE director independence standards and does not exceed the greater of $1 million or 2% of Numenta’s consolidated gross revenues. In January 2022, Numenta timely notified us of its intention to exercise the option to renew the sublease for the first additional

12-month

period. Accordingly, the rent will increase to $18,771.75 per month effective August 1, 2022.

Other Transactions

We have granted stock options and RSUs to our named executive officers and certain of our directors. See the section titled “Executive Compensation—Individual Compensation Arrangements—Long-Term Incentive Compensation”, “Executive Compensation—Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal

Year-End

Table” and “Board of Directors and Corporate

Governance—Non-Employee

Director Compensation” for a description of these stock options and RSUs.

We have entered into severance and change in control arrangements with certain of our executive officers pursuant to employment offer letters and/or our severance plan that, among other things, provides for certain severance and change in control payments and benefits. See the sections titled “Executive Compensation—Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements” and “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Other than as described above under this section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions,” since January 1, 2021, we have not entered into any transactions, nor are there any currently proposed transactions, between us and a related party where the amount involved exceeds, or would exceed, $120,000, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. We believe the terms of the transactions described above were comparable to terms we could have obtained in

arm’s-length

dealings with unrelated third parties.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following:

•

any breach of their duty of loyalty to our Company or our stockholders;

•

any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

•

unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or

•

any transaction from which they derived an improper personal benefit.

Any amendment to, or repeal of, these provisions will not eliminate or reduce the effect of these provisions in respect of any act, omission or claim that occurred or arose prior to that amendment or repeal. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to provide for further limitations on the personal liability of directors of corporations, then the personal liability of our directors will be further limited to the greatest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

In addition, our second amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was one of our directors or officers or is or was serving at our request as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Our second amended and restated bylaws provide that we may indemnify our employees and agents to the extent not prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law or other applicable law. Our second amended and restated bylaws also provide that we must advance expenses incurred by or on behalf of a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, subject to limited exceptions.

Further, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that may be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware

General Corporation Law. These indemnification agreements require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and executive officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service. These indemnification agreements also require us to advance all expenses incurred by the directors and executive officers in investigating or defending any such action, suit or proceeding. We believe that these agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and executive officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that are included in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, second amended and restated bylaws and in indemnification agreements that we have entered into with our directors and executive officers may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and executive officers for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and executive officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and executive officers as required by these indemnification provisions.

We have obtained insurance policies under which, subject to the limitations of the policies, coverage is provided to our directors and executive officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of fiduciary duty or other wrongful acts as a director or executive officer, including claims relating to public securities matters, and to us with respect to payments that may be made by us to these directors and executive officers pursuant to our indemnification obligations or otherwise as a matter of law.

Certain of our

non-employee

directors may, through their relationships with their employers, be insured and/or indemnified against certain liabilities incurred in their capacity as members of our board of directors.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling our Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

As set forth in our audit committee charter, our audit committee has the primary responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving “

related party transactions

,” which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Our policy regarding transactions between us and related persons provides that a related person is defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director or greater than 5% beneficial owner of our Class A and Class B common stock or the capital stock of one or more of our subsidiaries, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed year, and any of their immediate family members. Our audit committee charter provides that our audit committee shall review and approve or disapprove any related party transactions.

Director Independence

Our Class A common stock is listed on The New York Stock Exchange and the Long-Term Stock Exchange. Under the NYSE Listing Standards and the LTSE Listing Standards, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the NYSE Listing Standards and LTSE Listing Standards require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent. Under the NYSE Listing Standards and LTSE Listing Standards, a director will only qualify as an “

independent director

” if, in the opinion of that listed company’s board of directors, that director does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Audit committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in

Rule 10A-3

under the Exchange Act, the NYSE Listing Standards and the LTSE Listing Standards. Compensation and talent management committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule

10C-1

under the Exchange Act, the NYSE Listing Standards and the LTSE Listing Standards.

Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Dalzell, Deeter, Epstein, Immelt and Patrick, and Mses. Donio, Dubinsky and Rottenberg do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the NYSE Listing Standards and LTSE Listing Standards. In making these determinations, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each

non-employee

director has with our Company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each

non-employee

director, and the transactions involving them described above.
