Through its regular meetings with management, including the finance, legal, internal audit and information technology functions, the audit committee reviews and discusses all significant areas of our business and summarizes for the board of directors areas of risk and the appropriate mitigating factors. In addition, the board of directors receives periodic detailed operating performance reviews from management.

The Company’s Audit Committee oversees its cybersecurity controls. The Company uses, stores and processes data for and about our customers, employees, partners and suppliers. We have implemented a cybersecurity risk management program that is designed to identify, assess, and mitigate risks from cybersecurity threats to this data and our systems.
Controlled Company Exemption
Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D. beneficially owns a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE’s corporate governance standards. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (1) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (2) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities and (3) that its board of directors have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. As a result, we may utilize one or more of these exemptions, and you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements. For example, our nominating and corporate governance committee is not currently composed entirely of independent directors.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If we cease to be a “controlled company” and our shares continue to be listed on the NYSE, we will be required to comply with these standards and, depending on the board’s independence determination with respect to its then-current directors, we may be required to add additional directors to our board in order to achieve such compliance within the applicable transition periods. If the Class B Conversion Amendment is approved, all of our shares of Class B common stock, which are currently held by Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D., will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock effective February 12, 2028. Therefore, we anticipate ceasing “controlled company” status on February 12, 2028.
Composition of the Board of Directors
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors is declassified, and the directors are elected annually.
Independence of the Board of Directors
NYSE rules generally require that independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. As a controlled company, we are largely exempt from such requirements. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, we have determined that Larry Robbins, Dawn Carfora, Elazer Edelman, M.D., Ph.D., John Hammergren, Gianluca Pettiti, S. Louise Phanstiel and Erica Schwartz, M.D., J.D., M.P.H., representing sevensix of the Company’s directors, are “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of the NYSE. In addition, we determined that Gianluca Pettiti, who served on the board of directors during fiscal year 2023, was also “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of the NYSE.
Board Committees
The standing committees of the board of directors consist of an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee and a technology committee. The board of directors may from time to time establish other committees.
Our chief executive officerChief Executive Officer and other executive officers regularly report to the non-executive directors and the audit, the compensation and the nominating and corporate governance committees to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls. We believe that the leadership structure of the board of directors will provide appropriate risk oversight of our activities given the controlling interests held by Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D.
Meeting Attendance. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which includes both the periods prior to and following the Business Combination,2023, there were fiveeight meetings of our board of directors, and the various committees of the board of directors met a total of fourteen times.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Board Leadership Structure and Role on Risk Oversight
The positions of our chairman of the board and chief executive officer are separate. Separating these positions allows our chief executive officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the chairman of the board to lead the board of directors in its fundamental roles of setting a company’s overall strategy and providing advice to and independent oversight of management. Our board of directors recognizes the time, effort and energy that the chief executive officerChief Executive Officer must devote to his position in the current business environment, as well as the commitment required to serve as our chairman, particularly as the board of directors’ oversight responsibilities continue to grow. Our board of directors also believes that this structure ensures a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of the company and active participation of the independent directors in setting agendas and establishing priorities and procedures for the work of our board of directors. In addition, Mr. Robbins currently serves as the lead independent director of the board. Our board of directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function has not affected its leadership structure.
Although our bylaws do not require the chairman and chief executive officer positions to be separate, our board of directors believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for the Company at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance. Our board of directors believes that this structure is enhanced by the independent leadership provided by our lead independent director. The lead independent director’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) presides over all meetings of the board of directors at which the Chairman is not present, including executive sessions of the non-management directors; (ii) serves as a liaison between the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and non-management directors to increase efficiency and streamline communications and apprise non-management directors of matters discussed; (iii) in consultation with the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for the meeting agendas for the board of directors, and reviews the meeting schedules to assure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items; (iv) advises the Chief Executive Officer of the board of director’s informational needs following consultation with non-management directors, has the authority to approve the materials to be delivered to the directors in advance of regular meetings of the board of directors, and provides feedback regarding the quality, quantity, and timeliness of those materials; (v) has the authority to call meetings of the independent directors; (vi) communicates with the Chief Executive Officer about decisions reached, suggestions and views expressed by non-management directors in executive sessions or outside of meetings of the board of directors (except that the chairman of the compensation committee leads the discussion of the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and communicates the Board’s evaluation of that performance to the Chief Executive Officer); (vii) if requested by major stockholders, is available when appropriate, for consultation and direct communication in compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures; and (viii) performs such other duties as requested by independent directors.
Currently, our Chief Executive Officer is also our Chairman. Our board of directors believes that, at this time, having a combined Chief Executive Officer and Chairman is the appropriate leadership structure for the Company. In making this determination, the board of directors considered, among other matters, Mr. DeVivo’s management of our business on a day-to-day basis coupled with his direct involvement in our business operations, and believed that Mr. DeVivo is highly qualified to act as both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer due to his experience, knowledge, and personality. Among the benefits of a combined Chief Executive Officer/Chairman considered by the board of directors is that such structure promotes clearer leadership and direction for the Company and allows for a single, focused chain of command to execute our strategic initiatives and business plans.
Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. Our board of directors is actively involved in oversight of risks that could affect the Company. This oversight is conducted primarily by our full board of directors, which has responsibility for general oversight of risks. As part of its oversight, our board of directors receives reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions. In particular, the audit committee is responsible for discussing the adequacy of our risk management activities with management and our independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee’s primary emphasis is financial risk, including our internal control over financial reporting, and it also oversees our management of exposure to certain financial risks through its periodic review of our investment policy and the allocation of our investment portfolio. In addition, the compensation committee is responsible for considering whether our compensation programs and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

At each of its meetings, the board of directors receives business updates from various members of management. These updates may identify matters that have emerged within that member of management’s scope of responsibility that involve operational, financial, legal or regulatory risks and, in these cases, the board of directors provides guidance to management. Our board of directors believes that full and open communication between management and the board of directors is essential for effective risk management and oversight.
Prohibition on Hedging and Pledging
Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits members of the board of directors, NEOs, and all other subject personnel from purchasing financial instruments designed to hedge the economic risk of owning our securities (or entering any transaction that has the same economic effect), and prohibits certain persons, including members of the board of directors and the NEOs, from pledging our securities.

In order to attract and retain the talent required to fulfill our mission, accelerate growth, and promote stockholder value, the Compensation Committee’s goal is to implement an executive compensation program that is built upon the following objectives:
Attracting and Retaining the Right Talent. Executive compensation should be market-competitive in order to attract and retain highly motivated talent with a performance-driven mindset, while supporting sound compensation principles in alignment sound corporate governance practices.
Pay for Performance. A material portion of an executive’s target compensation should be at-risk and directly aligned with Company performance, with short-term (annual performance-based bonus) and long-term (equity awards) incentive programs that appropriately balance incentives for short- and long-term performance. In consideration of the early stage of the company and the need of building scale and infrastructure to serve the large addressable opportunity, the performance assessment has taken into consideration short-term targets as well as business development milestones, required to set up the Company for sustained and accelerated future growth.

When establishing the newly-hired NEO’s target total direct compensation opportunity for 2021, the Compensation Committee considered the competitive market for comparable executives and compensation opportunities provided by comparable companies. Market comparison information for the NEOs was sourced from publicly available peer group information, as well as industry-specific survey data provided by Aon Plc, our independent compensation consultant for 2021. Both data sources served as important reference points in assessing the competitiveness of base salary, incentive targets, and total direct compensation, as well as on overall market design practices. Overall, the Compensation Committee targeted the midpoint of the market for the newly-hired NEOs.
Our 2021 peer group is composed of a set of 15 medical device/diagnostic and software companies, which was recommended to the Compensation Committee by Aon. Based on data compiled by Aon at the time of the peer group review, our revenues and market capitalization were at the 50th and 28th percentiles, respectively, in relation to the 2021 peer group.

Ms. Fielding and Mr. Shahida did not receive equity awards in 2021 in recognition of significant awards made to the two executives in December 2020 in connection with the Business Combination agreement. We note that the February 2021 awards (e.g., 92% of the CEO’s total grant date fair value) were granted prior to the completion of the Business Combination at the date of hiring and partially in consideration of the significant amount of equity forfeited. Further detail on 2021 awards can be found in “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” below.
Equity Incentive Plans
Our 2012 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2012 Plan”), was in place for many years prior to the Business Combination and was amended in January 2020. Pursuant to the Business Combination, all outstanding awards under the 2012 Plan remain subject to the terms and conditions of such plan and the number of shares issued thereunder and the exercise prices were equitably adjusted based on the exchange ratio in connection with the Business Combination. We may not issue new awards under such plan. In connection with the Business Combination, we adopted the Butterfly Network, Inc. Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan allows for the grant of options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards (each restricted stock unit relating to one share of our Class A common stock), other share or cash-based awards and dividend equivalent awards to employees, non-employee directors and consultants.

RISKS RELATED TO COMPENSATION PRACTICES AND POLICIES
Consistent with SEC disclosure requirements, we have assessed our compensation policies, practices and awards, and have concluded that our compensation policies, practices and awards do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our management assessed our compensation and benefits programs to determine if the programs’ provisions and operations create undesired or unintentional risk of a material nature. We do not have any programs where the ability of a participant may directly affect variability or timing of payout. Rather, our compensation programs include a combination of fixed base salaries, cash bonuses, long-term incentive awards, and employee retirement plans that are generally uniform in design and operation throughout the Company and with all levels of employees. The compensation policies and practices are substantially the same.
Based on the foregoing, we believe that our compensation policies, practices and awards do not create risks that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company as a whole. We also believe that our incentive compensation arrangements provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond the organization’s ability to effectively identify and manage significant risks, are compatible with our effective internal controls and our risk management practices, and are supported by the oversight and administration of the compensation committee with regard to executive compensation programs.

Amounts shown in this column do not necessarily represent actual value realized from the sale of the shares acquired upon exercise of options because in many cases the shares are not sold on exercise but continue to be held by the executive officer exercising the option. The amounts shown represent the difference between the option exercise price and the market price on the date of exercise, which is the amount that would have been realized if the shares had been sold immediately upon exercise.

Severance Plan
On May 3, 2021, the Compensation Committeecompensation committee of the Boardboard of directors adopted the Butterfly Network, Inc. Executive Severance Plan, as amended on November 10, 2021 (the “Severance Plan”). Eligible participants in the Severance Plan include our executive officers (other than our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our Chief Operating Officer and our Chief Strategy and Chief Business Development Officer) and executive officers reporting directly to our Chief Executive Officer having the title of senior vice president or executive vice president.
Under the Severance Plan, if we terminate a participant’s employment without cause (as defined in the Severance Plan) or a participant resigns for good reason (as defined in the Severance Plan) at any time other than during the twelve (12)12 month period following a change in control (as such term is defined in the Severance Plan) (the “Change in Control Period”), then the participant is eligible to receive the following benefits:
Severance payable in the form of salary continuation. The severance amount is equal to participant’s then-current base salary times a multiplier determined based on the participant’s title or role with us. The multiplier for Ms. Getz (executive vice president) is 1.0 and for Dr. Stoica (senior vice president) is .75.
We will pay for company contribution for continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, or COBRA, during the severance period.
Under the Severance Plan, if we terminate a participant’s employment without cause or participant resigns for good reason, during the Change in Control Period, then the participant is eligible to receive the following benefits:
Severance payable in a single lump sum. The severance amount is equal to participant’s then-current base salary and then-current target annual bonus opportunity, times a change in control multiplier determined based on the participant’s title or role with us. The multiplier for Ms. Getz and Dr. Stoica is 1.0.
We will pay for company contribution for continuation coverage under COBRA during the severance period.
Any outstanding unvested equity awards held by the participant under our then-current outstanding equity incentive plan(s) will become fully vested on the date the termination of such participant’s employment becomes effective.
A participant’s rights to any severance benefits under the Severance Plan are conditioned upon the participant executing and not revoking a valid separation and general release of claims agreement in a form provided by us.

a material reduction of the participant’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to the reduction; or
a material reduction in the participant’s authority, duties or responsibilities.
The participant must provide us with written notice within 30 days after the occurrence of a good reason event, and we have 30 days to correct the event after receipt of the notice, and the participant must actually terminate his or her employment within 60 days after the date we receive the participant’s notice.

Proposal 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The audit committee has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as our independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.2024. Our board of directors proposes that the stockholders ratify this appointment. We expect that representatives of Deloitte will be present at the annual meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) acted as Longview’s independent registered public accounting firm. On February 12, 2021, the audit committee approved the dismissal of Withum as our independent registered public accounting firm and our board of directors engaged Deloitte as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Deloitte was previously engaged by Legacy Butterfly to audit its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Accordingly, Withum was informed that it would be replaced as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm once it completed the audit of Longview for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, which consisted only of the accounts of the pre-Business Combination special purpose acquisition company, Longview. The reports of Withum on Longview’s balance sheet as of February 12, 2020, and the statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the period from February 4, 2020 (inception) through February 12, 2020, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles. During the audit for the period from February 4, 2020 (inception) through February 12, 2020, and reviews of the February 4, 2020 (inception) through September 30, 2020 financial statements, there were no disagreements between the Company and Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Withum, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods. During the period from February 4, 2020 (inception) through September 30, 2020, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act). During the period from February 4, 2020 (inception) to the date our board of directors approved the engagement of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Longview did not consult with Deloitte on matters that involved the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Longview’s consolidated financial statements or any other matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or reportable event. The Company has provided Withum and Deloitte with a copy of the foregoing disclosures.
In deciding to appoint Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022,2024, the audit committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with Deloitte and concluded that Deloitte has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.2024.

Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committeeaudit committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committeeaudit committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm.
Prior to engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm for the next year’s audit, management will submit an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the Audit Committeeaudit committee for approval.
1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally only an independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting or reporting standards.
2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by an independent registered public accounting firm, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Prior to engagement, the audit committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the audit committee requires our independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the audit committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm.
The audit committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.
In the event the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm, the audit committee will reconsider its appointment.

Proposal 4: Advisory Vote on Approval of 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and Accompanying Share Reserve
On April 12, 2024, the FrequencyBoard unanimously adopted, subject to the approval of Holdingour stockholders, the Butterfly Network, Inc., 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). We believe that the adoption of the ESPP will benefit us by providing employees with an Advisory Voteopportunity to acquire shares of our Class A common stock and will enable us to attract, retain and motivate valued employees.
Based solely on the Compensationclosing price of our Named Executive OfficersClass A common stock reported on the NYSE on April 12, 2024, the maximum aggregate market value of the 4,200,000 shares of Class A common stock that could potentially be issued under the ESPP is $3,733,800. There are no other ESPPs currently in effect at the Company.
Summary of Material Provisions of the ESPP
The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the ESPP. A copy of the ESPP is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement and is incorporated herein by reference. The following description of the ESPP does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Appendix A. We note that the ESPP includes two components: a Code Section 423 Component (the “423 Component”) and a non-Code Section 423 Component (the “Non-423 Component”). The 423 Component is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. Under the Non-423 Component, which does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code, options will be granted pursuant to rules adopted by the administrator of the ESPP (the “Administrator”) designed to comply with applicable law or to achieve tax efficiency or other objective for eligible employees.
Shares Subject to the Plan. An aggregate of 4,200,000 shares of Class A common stock will be reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP, plus on, January 1, 2025, and each January 1 thereafter through January 1, 2033, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP will be cumulatively increased by the least of (i) 1% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31st, or (ii) such number of shares of Class A common stock as determined by the Administrator. If our capital structure changes because of a stock dividend, stock split or similar event, the number of shares that can be issued under the ESPP will be appropriately adjusted.
Plan Administration. The ESPP will be administered by person or persons appointed by the Board, which will have full authority to make, administer and interpret such rules and regulations regarding the ESPP as it deems advisable.
Eligibility. All individuals classified as employees on the payroll records of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary (as defined in the ESPP) are eligible to participate in the ESPP, provided that as of the first day of the applicable offering period (the “Offering Date”), they are customarily employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary for more than 20 hours a week on a permanent basis (meaning greater than a planned six (6) month period), and have completed at least six (6) months of employment. No person who owns or holds, or as a result of participation in the ESPP would own or hold, common stock or options to purchase common stock, that together equal 5% or more of total outstanding common stock is entitled to participate in the ESPP. No employee may exercise an option granted under the ESPP that permits the employee to purchase common stock having a value of more than the greater of $25,000 or then current maximum amount under the Code (determined using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the time such option is granted) in any calendar year.
Participation; Payroll Deductions. Participation in the ESPP is limited to eligible employees who authorize payroll deductions equal to a whole percentage or amount of base pay to the ESPP. Employees may authorize payroll deductions, with a minimum of 1% of base pay and no maximum of base pay. As of April 16, 2024, approximately 220 employees would have been eligible to participate in the ESPP had it been effective on such date. Once an employee becomes a participant in the ESPP, that employee will automatically participate in successive offering periods (as described below) and purchases will continue at the same percentage or amount of compensation until such time as that employee files a new enrollment form or withdraws from the ESPP, provided that the employee remains eligible to participate in the ESPP.
Offering Periods. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, each offering of Class A common stock under the ESPP will be for a period of twenty-four months, which we refer to as an “offering period.” The first offering period under the ESPP is expected to begin and end on the dates determined by the Administrator. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, each offering period will be twenty-four months and will be divided into four equal six-month purchase periods. Shares are purchased on the last day of each purchase period (the “Exercise Date”). Unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion, chooses otherwise prior to an Offering Date, and to the extent an offering has more than one purchase period and to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the fair market value of our Class A common stock on any Exercise Date in an offering is lower
2024 Proxy Statement47


TABLE OF CONTENTS

than the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the Offering Date, then all participants in such offering will automatically be withdrawn from such offering immediately after the exercise of their option on such Exercise Date and automatically re-enrolled in the immediately following offering as of the first day and the preceding offering will terminate.
Exercise Price. On the Exercise Date for a purchase period, employees participating in that purchase period will receive an option to purchase shares of our Class A common stock. On the Exercise Date of each purchase period, the employee is deemed to have exercised the option, at the option exercise price, to the extent of accumulated payroll deductions. The option exercise price is equal to the lesser of (1) 85% the fair market value per share of our Class A common stock on the Offering Date or (2) 85% of the fair market value per share of our Class A common stock on the Exercise Date. The maximum value of our Class A common stock that may be issued to any employee under the ESPP in any purchase period is the lowest of (i) the number of shares of our Class A common stock determined by dividing such employee’s accumulated payroll deductions on such Exercise Date by the option exercise price, or (ii) such other lesser number of shares as determined by the Administrator in advance of the offering.
Subject to certain limitations, the number of whole shares of our Class A common stock a participant purchases in each purchase period is determined by dividing the total amount of payroll deductions withheld from the participant’s compensation during the offering period by the option exercise price. In general, if an employee is no longer a participant on an Exercise Date, the employee’s option will be automatically terminated, and the amount of the employee’s accumulated payroll deductions will be refunded.
Terms of Participation. Except as may be permitted by the Administrator in advance of an offering, a participant may not increase the amount of such participant’s payroll deductions during any purchase period but may increase or decrease such participant’s payroll deduction with respect to the next purchase period by filing a new enrollment form before the next purchase period (within such deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the offering). A participant may withdraw from a purchase period by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to his or her appropriate payroll location. A participant’s withdrawal will be effective as of the next business day. If a participant withdraws from a purchase period, that participant may not again participate during the remainder of that offering period, but may enroll in subsequent offering periods provided the participant remains eligible to participate in the ESPP.
Sale Event. In the case of and subject to the consummation of a “sale event,” (as defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan) the Administrator, in its discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, is authorized to take any one or more of the following actions under the ESPP or with respect to any right under the ESPP or to facilitate such transactions or events: (a) to provide for either (i) termination of any outstanding option in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such option had such option been currently exercisable or (ii) the replacement of such outstanding option with other options or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion; (b) to provide that the outstanding options under the ESPP shall be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for similar options covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; (c) to make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Class A common stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding options under the ESPP and/or in terms and conditions of outstanding options and options that may be granted in the future; (d) to provide that the offering with respect to which an option relates will be shortened by setting a new Exercise Date on which such offering period will end; and (e) provide that all outstanding options shall terminate without being exercised and all amounts in the accounts of participants shall be promptly refunded.
Term; Amendments and Termination. The ESPP will continue until terminated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, at any time, terminate or amend the ESPP. Upon termination of the ESPP, all amounts in the accounts of participating employees will be refunded. Unless terminated earlier or otherwise amended, the ESPP shall automatically terminate on the ten year anniversary of the effective date of the ESPP.
New Plan Benefits
Since participation in the ESPP is voluntary, the benefits or amounts that will be received by or allocated to any individual or group of individuals under the ESPP in the future are not determinable.
Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is only a summary of the effect of the U.S. income tax laws and regulations upon an employee and us with respect to an employee’s participation in the Section 423 Component of the ESPP. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of all federal tax implications of participation in the ESPP, nor does it discuss the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which a participant may reside or otherwise be subject to tax.
A participant in the ESPP recognizes no taxable income either as a result of participation in the ESPP or upon exercise of an option to purchase shares of our Class A common stock under the terms of the ESPP.
2024 Proxy Statement48


TABLE OF CONTENTS

If a participant disposes of shares purchased upon exercise of an option granted under the ESPP within two years from the first day of the applicable offering period or within one year from the last day of the applicable purchase period, which we refer to as a “disqualifying disposition,” the participant will realize ordinary income in the year of that disposition equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares were purchased exceeds the purchase price. The amount of ordinary income will be added to the participant’s basis in the shares, and any additional gain or resulting loss recognized on the disposition of the shares will be a capital gain or loss. A capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant’s holding period is more than 12 months, or short-term if the participant’s holding period is 12 months or less.
If the participant disposes of shares purchased upon exercise of an option granted under the ESPP at least two years after the first day of the applicable offering period and at least one year after the exercise date, the participant will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition equal to the lesser of (1) 15% of the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the first day of the offering period in which the shares were purchased and (2) the excess of the amount actually received for the Class A common stock over the amount paid. The amount of any ordinary income will be added to the participant’s basis in the shares, and any additional gain recognized upon the disposition after that basis adjustment will be a long-term capital gain. If the fair market value of the shares on the date of disposition is less than the option exercise price, there will be no ordinary income and any loss recognized will be a long-term capital loss.
We are seeking your input with regardgenerally entitled to a tax deduction in the year of a disqualifying disposition equal to the frequencyamount of holding future stockholder advisory votes onordinary income recognized by the compensationparticipant as a result of our named executive officers.that disposition. In particular,all other cases, we are asking whethernot allowed a deduction.
Vote Requirement and Recommendation of the advisory vote on the compensationBoard of our named executive officers should occur every year, every two years or every three years. Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on our compensation committee or our board of directors. However, the compensation committee and our board of directors will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding how frequently it should present the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers to our stockholders.Directors
The compensation committee, board of directors and management believe that it is appropriate and in our best interests for our stockholders to vote in favor of an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. An advisory vote each year will permit our stockholders to provide annual feedback to us on our compensation policies, practices and compensation awards for our named executive officers. This is consistent with our policy of giving stockholders the opportunity to voice concerns with management or our board of directors. An annual advisory vote will give the board of directors, the compensation committee and management more timely feedback from the stockholders to allow us to evaluate and adjust, when we consider appropriate, the compensation of our named executive officers.
The proxy card provides stockholders with the opportunity to choose among four options (holding the vote every one, two or three years, or abstaining) and, therefore, stockholders will not be voting to approve or disapprove our board of directors’ recommendation. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares voted forvotes cast at the annual meeting is required to approve this proposal — every year, every two years or every three years —proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will behave no effect on the frequency approved, on an advisory basis, by our stockholders.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Proposal 5(a): Approval of the Class B Conversion Amendment
Background
Our Charter currently authorizes the Company to issue 628,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of: (i) 600,000,000 shares of Class A common stock; (ii) 27,000,000 shares of Class B common stock; and (iii) 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As of April 1, 2024, there were 184,214,377 shares of Class A common stock and 26,426,937 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.
Our Charter currently provides for a dual-class structure, in which shares of our website at www.butterflynetwork.com and will be made available to stockholders without charge, upon request, in writingClass B common stock have 20 votes per share, while shares of our Class A common stock have one vote per share. Pursuant to the Corporate SecretaryCharter, each share of Class B common stock will automatically be converted into a share of Class A common stock upon the occurrence of certain events (each, an “Original Conversion Event”). In addition, each share of Class B common stock may be converted into a share of Class A common stock at Butterfly Network, Inc., 530 Old Whitfield Street, Guilford, Connecticut 06437. Disclosure regarding any amendments to, or waivers from, provisionsthe option of the codeholder thereof at any time. The Class B common stock is not currently subject to a time-based sunset provision.
On April 12, 2024, our Board approved an amendment to include an additional Conversion Event pursuant to which each share of business conduct and ethics that apply to our directors, principal executive officer and principal financial officerClass B common stock will be included inautomatically convert into a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days followingshare of Class A common stock effective February 12, 2028, which is seven years from the date of the amendmentclosing of the Business Combination (the “New Conversion Event” and, together with the Original Conversion Events, the “Conversion Events”).
Following a Conversion Event, no shares of Class B common stock will remain outstanding. Upon the effectiveness of a Conversion Event and pursuant to the terms of our Charter, the shares of Class B common stock that are converted into shares of Class A common stock shall be retired and may not be reissued.
Pursuant to the Charter, the Company is not permitted to issue any additional shares of Class B common stock, unless such issuance is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the then-outstanding shares of Class B common stock, voting as a separate class. The Company does not intend to seek approval of the holders of Class B common stock to issue Class B common stock in the future.
Reasons for the Class B Conversion Amendment
Our Board believes the Class B Conversion Amendment is appropriate in light of the Board’s commitment to support an ongoing effort to adopt “best practices” in corporate governance. Our Chairman of our board of directors, Dr. Rothberg, beneficially owns 100% of our Class B common stock and controls a majority of the voting power of all of our outstanding capital stock (79.97% as of March 1, 2024). As such, Dr. Rothberg has the ability to significantly influence our business and affairs through his ownership of the high vote Class B common stock, even though Dr. Rothberg owns less than a majority of the outstanding shares of our capital stock. Dr. Rothberg is able to control matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, amendments of our organizational documents and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or waiver,substantially all of our assets or other major corporate transactions. Dr. Rothberg, as controlling stockholder, may have interests that differ from other stockholders and may vote in a way with which other stockholders disagree and which may be adverse to the interests of other stockholders.
This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of the Company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of the Company, and might ultimately affect the market price of shares of our Class A common stock. As a result, conflicts of interest may arise among Dr. Rothberg, on the one hand, and the Company and holders of our Class A common stock on the other hand. If the holders of our Class A common stock are dissatisfied with the performance of our board of directors, they have no ability to remove any of our directors, with or without cause. Our Board believes that establishing a conversion date to eliminate our dual-class structure will allow our current stockholders to exercise their voting rights and increase our directors’ accountability to stockholders. The board of directors believes it is important to approve the Sunset Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to add a provision with respect to the automatic conversion of our Class B common stock effective February 16, 2028, which is seven years from the date of the closing of our Business Combination, to create alignment between economic interests and voting rights, reduce the concentration of our voting power, and incentivize stockholders to vote. In addition, the Board also believes that the elimination of our dual-class capital structure may provide other benefits to the Company and its
2024 Proxy Statement51


TABLE OF CONTENTS

stockholders, including possible inclusion of the Company in certain stock indices, such as the S&P Dow Indices, that bar companies with a multi-class capital structure. In light of the foregoing, the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to approve the Class B Conversion Amendment.
Timing and Effect of the Class B Conversion Amendment
The Class B Conversion Amendment, among other things, would add the New Conversion Event to Article IV, Section 7.2 of the Charter. The foregoing amendments to our Charter are shown in Appendix B to this proxy statement, which contains a comparison showing the proposed changes against the existing provisions (new text appears in blue underline and deleted text appears in red strikethrough).
If Proposal 5(a) is approved by stockholders, the Company intends to file an amended and restated Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the Annual Meeting to effect the amendments to the Charter described in Proposal 5(a). If Proposal 5(a) is not approved, then any amended and restated certificate of incorporation we may file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the Annual Meeting will not contain the amendments contemplated by the Class B Conversion Amendment. Notwithstanding stockholder approval of Proposal 5(a), the Board has the authority to abandon any of the amendments to our Charter contained in the Class B Conversion Amendment.
Vote Required
Approval of Proposal 5(a) requires (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, and (ii) the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (66 2/3%) of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, voting as a single class.

Proposal 5(b): Approval of the Officer Exculpation Amendment
Background
In August 2022, the State of Delaware, which is our state of incorporation, enacted legislation that enables Delaware companies to limit the liability of certain officers in limited circumstances under Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Amended DGCL Section 102(b)(7) only permits exculpation for direct claims brought by stockholders for breach of an officer’s fiduciary duty of care, including class actions, but does not eliminate officers’ monetary liability for breach of fiduciary duty claims brought by the corporation itself or for derivative claims brought by stockholders in the name of the corporation. Furthermore, the limitation on liability does not apply to breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction in which the officer derived an improper personal benefit.
The Board of Directors believes it is important to provide protection from certain liabilities and expenses that may discourage prospective or current officers from serving corporations. In the absence of such protection, qualified officers might be deterred from serving as officers due to exposure to personal liability and the risk that substantial expense will be incurred in defending lawsuits, regardless of merit. In particular, the Board of Directors took into account the narrow class and type of claims that such officers would be exculpated from liability pursuant to amended DGCL Section 102(b)(7), the limited number of the Company’s officers that would be impacted, and the benefits the Board of Directors believes would accrue to the Company by providing exculpation in accordance with DGCL Section 102(b)(7), including, without limitation, the ability to attract and retain key officers and the potential to reduce litigation costs associated with frivolous lawsuits.
The Board of Directors balanced these considerations with our corporate governance guidelines and practices and determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders to adopt amended DGCL Section 102(b)(7) and extend exculpation protection to our officers in addition to our directors.
The foregoing amendments to our Charter are shown in Appendix B to this proxy statement, which contains a comparison showing the proposed changes against the existing provisions (new text appears in blue underline and deleted text appears in red strikethrough).
Reasons for the Officer Exculpation Amendment
The Board of Directors believes it is appropriate for public companies in states that allow exculpation of officers to have exculpation clauses in their certificates of incorporation. Adopting an officer exculpation provision that aligns with the protections afforded under the DGCL could prevent protracted or otherwise meritless litigation that distracts from our primary objective of creating stockholder value over the long term. The nature of the role of directors and officers often requires them to make decisions on crucial matters. Frequently, directors and officers must make decisions in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges, which can create substantial risk of investigations, claims, actions, suits or proceedings seeking to impose liability on the basis of hindsight, especially in the current litigious environment and regardless of merit. Limiting concern about personal risk would empower both directors and officers to best exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests. We expect our peers to adopt exculpation clauses that limit the personal liability of officers in their certificates of incorporation, and failing to adopt the proposed Officer Exculpation Amendment could impact our recruitment and retention of exceptional officer candidates that conclude that the potential exposure to liabilities, costs of defense and other risks of proceedings exceeds the benefits of serving as an officer of our company.
For the reasons stated above, on April 12, 2024, the Board determined that the proposed Officer Exculpation Amendment is advisable and in the best interest of our company and our stockholders and authorized and approved the proposed Officer Exculpation Amendment and directed that it be considered at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors believes the proposed Officer Exculpation Amendment would better position the Company to attract top officer candidates and retain our current officers and enable the officers to exercise their business judgment in furtherance of the interests of the stockholders without the potential for distraction posed by the risk of personal liability.
The proposed Officer Exculpation Amendment is not being proposed in response to any specific resignation, threat of resignation or refusal to serve by any officer.

Timing and Effect of the Officer Exculpation Amendment
The Officer Exculpation Amendment, among other things, would add a new exculpation and liability provision in a new Article XI to our Charter. The foregoing amendments to our Charter are shown in Appendix B to this proxy statement, which contains a comparison showing the proposed changes against the existing provisions (new text appears in blue underline and deleted text appears in red strikethrough). After effectiveness of the Officer Exculpation Amendment, the new officer exculpation provision would apply only with respect to acts or omissions by our officers occurring after the date of the Officer Exculpation Amendment.
If Proposal 5(b) is approved by stockholders, the Company intends to file the A&R Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the Annual Meeting to effect the amendments to the Charter described in Proposal 5(b). If Proposal 5(b) is not approved, then any amended and restated certificate of incorporation we may file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the Annual Meeting will not contain the amendments contemplated by the Officer Exculpation Amendment. Notwithstanding stockholder approval of Proposal 5(b), the Board has the authority to abandon any of the amendments to our Charter contained in the Officer Exculpation Amendment.

Proposal 5(c): Approval of the Exclusive Forum Amendment
Background
Our Charter provides that, unless website postingwe consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for: derivative actions or proceedings brought on behalf of the Company, claims of breach of fiduciary duties, claims arising under the DGCL or our organizational documents, or any action asserting a claim governed by the internal-affairs doctrine (the “Delaware forum provision”). Our Charter also provides that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for actions arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the issuanceSecurities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (the “federal forum provision”).
The Board of Directors believes it is important to provide greater certainty with respect to the application of the exclusive forum provision in our Certificate of Incorporation and eliminate any inconsistencies or duplicative language in such provision, including the possibility of concurrent jurisdiction. Accordingly, on April 12, 2024, the Board approved, subject to stockholder approval, the Exclusive Forum Amendment to clarify that the Delaware forum provision does not apply to actions arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and to specify that the federal forum provision applies to disputes arising under both the Securities Act and Exchange Act.
Reasons for the Proposed Exclusive Forum Amendment
The Exclusive Forum Amendment will amend each of the Delaware forum provision and the federal forum provision to clarify the claims to which each provision applies. The purpose of the Exclusive Forum Amendment is to proactively adopt a measure intended to promote the efficient resolution of claims and to promote efficient and consistent resolutions in the event these types of litigation that are subject to the exclusive forum provision arise. In doing so, the Board of Directors considered a number of factors, including the potential for costly, duplicative litigation caused by the language in the current Charter, which costs would be borne by our stockholders.
For the reasons stated above, the Board of Directors determined that the proposed Exclusive Forum Amendment is advisable and in the best interest of our Company and our stockholders and authorized and approved, subject to stockholder approval, of the proposed Exclusive Forum Amendment and directed that it be considered for approval by stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors believes the proposed Exclusive Forum Amendment would enable us to litigate claims more efficiently.
Although the Board recommends approval of the Exclusive Forum Amendment, such approval could have negative implications on us and our stockholders. Among other items, such approval may have the effect of discouraging claims brought by stockholders, by limiting stockholder ability to litigate in a forum they consider advantageous, or by adding further litigation-related expenses.
The proposed Exclusive Forum Amendment is not being proposed in response to any specific litigation confronting the Company and is being proposed on a prospective basis to help mitigate potential future harm to the Company and its stockholders.
Timing and Effect of the Exclusive Forum Amendment
The Exclusive Forum Amendment, among other things, would amend and restate Article XV of our Charter. The foregoing amendments to our Charter are shown in Appendix B to this proxy statement, which contains a comparison showing the proposed changes against the existing provisions (new text appears in blue underline and deleted text appears in red strikethrough). After effectiveness of the Exclusive Forum Amendment, the new exclusive forum provision would apply only with respect to claims brought after the date of the Exclusive Forum Amendment.
If Proposal 5(c) is approved by stockholders, the Company intends to file an A&R Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the Annual Meeting to effect the amendments to the Charter described in Proposal 5(c). If Proposal 5(c) is not approved, then any amended and restated certificate of incorporation we may file with the Secretary of State of the State

APPENDIX A
BUTTERFLY NETWORK, INC.

2024 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The purpose of the Butterfly Network, Inc. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide eligible employees of Butterfly Network, Inc. (the “Company”) and each Designated Subsidiary (as defined in Section 11) with opportunities to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”). An aggregate of 4,200,000 shares of Class A Common Stock have been approved and reserved for this purpose, plus on January 1, 2025, and each January 1 thereafter through January 1, 2033, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be cumulatively increased by the least of (i) one percent 1% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31st, or (ii) such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as determined by the Administrator.
The Plan includes two components: a Code Section 423 Component (the “423 Component”) and a non-Code Section 423 Component (the “Non-423 Component”). It is intended for the 423 Component to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the 423 Component shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent. Under the Non-423 Component, which does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Code, options will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to comply with applicable laws or to achieve tax efficiency, or other objectives for eligible employees. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.
1. Administration. The Plan will be administered by the person or persons (the “Administrator”) appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) for such purpose. The Administrator has authority at any time to: (i) adopt, alter and repeal such rules, guidelines and practices for the administration of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as it shall deem advisable; (ii) interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan; (iii) make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; (iv) decide all disputes arising in connection with the Plan; and (v) otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. All interpretations and decisions of the Administrator shall be binding on all persons, including the Company and the Participants. No member of the Board or individual exercising administrative authority with respect to the Plan shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted hereunder.
2. Offerings. The Company may make one or more offerings to eligible employees to purchase Common Stock under the Plan (“Offerings”) consisting of one or more Purchase Periods. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the initial Offering will begin and end on dates to be determined by the Administrator. Thereafter, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Offering will be 24 months long and will begin and end on the days selected by the Administrator. The Administrator may, in its discretion, designate a different period for any Offering (which may be longer or shorter than 24 months), provided that no Offering shall exceed 27 months in duration. Unless the Administrator otherwise determines, each Offering will be divided into four equal six-month Purchase Periods. Furthermore, unless as otherwise determined by the Administrator, Participants will only be permitted to participate in one Offering at a time. Unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion, chooses otherwise prior to an Offering Date, and to the extent an Offering has more than one Purchase Period and to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on any Exercise Date in an Offering is lower than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Offering Date, then all participants in such Offering will automatically be withdrawn from such Offering immediately after the exercise of their option on such Exercise Date and automatically re-enrolled in the immediately following Offering as of the first day thereof and the preceding Offering will terminate.
3. Eligibility. All individuals classified as employees on the payroll records of the Company and each Designated Subsidiary are eligible to participate in any one or more of the Offerings under the Plan, provided that as of the first day of the applicable Offering (the “Offering Date”) they are customarily employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary for more than 20 hours a week on a permanent basis (meaning greater than a planned six (6) month period) and have completed at least six (6) months of employment. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary for purposes of the Company’s or applicable Designated Subsidiary’s payroll system are not

TABLE OF CONTENTS

considered to be eligible employees of the Company or any Designated Subsidiary and shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan. In the event any such individuals are reclassified as employees of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary for any purpose, including, without limitation, common law or statutory employees, by any action of any third party, including, without limitation, any government agency, or as a result of any private lawsuit, action or administrative proceeding, such individuals shall, notwithstanding such reclassification, remain ineligible for participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusive means for individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary on the Company’s or Designated Subsidiary’s payroll system to become eligible to participate in this Plan is through an amendment to this Plan, duly executed by the Company, which specifically renders such individuals eligible to participate herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, employees of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary who are citizens or residents of a foreign jurisdiction (without regard to whether they are also citizens of the United States or resident aliens (within the meaning of Section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code)) shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan if: (i) the grant of an option under the Plan to such employee is prohibited under the laws of such jurisdiction; or (ii) compliance with the laws of such foreign jurisdiction would cause the 423 Component of the Plan to violate the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
4. Participation.
(a) Participants. An eligible employee who is not a Participant in any prior Offering may participate in a subsequent Offering by submitting an enrollment form to his or her appropriate payroll location by such deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the Offering.
(b) Enrollment. The enrollment form (which may be in an electronic format or such other method as determined by the Administrator) will (a) state a whole percentage or amount to be deducted from an eligible employee’s Compensation (as defined in Section 11) per pay period, (b) authorize the purchase of Common Stock in each Offering in accordance with the terms of the Plan and (c) specify the exact name or names in which shares of Common Stock purchased for such individual are to be issued pursuant to Section 10. An employee who does not enroll in accordance with these procedures will be deemed to have waived the right to participate. Unless a Participant files a new enrollment form or withdraws from the Plan, such Participant’s deductions and purchases will continue at the same percentage or amount of Compensation for future Offerings, provided he or she remains eligible.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, participation in the Plan will neither be permitted nor be denied contrary to the requirements of the Code.
5. Employee Contributions. Each eligible employee may authorize payroll deductions at a minimum of one percent (1) of such employee’s Compensation for each pay period. The Company will maintain book accounts showing the amount of payroll deductions made by each Participant for each Offering. No interest will accrue or be paid on payroll deductions.
6. Deduction Changes. Except as may be determined by the Administrator in advance of an Offering, a Participant may not increase or decrease his or her payroll deduction during any Purchase Period, but may increase or decrease his or her payroll deduction with respect to the next Purchase Period (subject to the limitations of Section 5) by filing a new enrollment form before the next Purchase Period within such deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the Offering). A Participant may also increase or decrease his or her payroll deduction with respect to the next Offering (subject to the limitations of Section 5) by filing a new enrollment form before the next Offering Date. The Administrator may, in advance of any Offering, establish rules permitting a Participant to increase, decrease or terminate his or her payroll deduction during an Offering.
7. Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from participation in the Plan by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to his or her appropriate payroll location. The Participant’s withdrawal will be effective as of the next business day. Following a Participant’s withdrawal, the Company will promptly refund such individual’s entire account balance under the Plan to him or her (after payment for any Common Stock purchased before the effective date of withdrawal). Partial withdrawals are not permitted. Such an employee may not begin participation again during the remainder of the Offering, but may enroll in a subsequent Offering in accordance with Section 4, provided that he or she remains eligible.
8. Grant of Options. On each Offering Date, the Company will grant to each eligible employee who is then a Participant in the Plan an option (“Option”) to purchase on the last day of a Purchase Period (the “Exercise Date”), at the Option Price (as defined below) for, the lowest of (a) a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on such Exercise Date by the Option Price (as defined
2024 Proxy StatementA-2


TABLE OF CONTENTS

herein), or (b) such other lesser maximum number of shares as shall have been established by the Administrator in advance of the Offering; provided, however, that such Option shall be subject to the limitations set forth below. Each Participant’s Option shall be exercisable only to the extent of such Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the Exercise Date. The purchase price for each share purchased under each Option (the “Option Price”) will be eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Offering Date or the Exercise Date, whichever is less.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Participant may be granted an option hereunder if such Participant, immediately after the option was granted, would be treated as owning stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (as defined in Section 11). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of a Participant, and all stock which the Participant has a contractual right to purchase shall be treated as stock owned by the Participant. In addition, no Participant may be granted an Option which permits such Participant rights to purchase stock under the Plan, and any other employee stock purchase plan of the Company and its Parents and Subsidiaries, to accrue at a rate which exceeds the greater of (i) $25,000; or (ii) the then current applicable limit under the Code of the fair market value of such stock (determined on the option grant date or dates) for each calendar year in which the Option is outstanding at any time. The purpose of the limitation in the preceding sentence is to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and shall be applied taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.
9. Exercise of Option and Purchase of Shares. Each employee who continues to be a Participant in the Plan on the Exercise Date shall be deemed to have exercised his or her Option on such date and shall acquire from the Company such number of whole shares of Common Stock reserved for the purpose of the Plan as his or her accumulated payroll deductions on such date will purchase at the Option Price, subject to any other limitations contained in the Plan. Any amount remaining in a Participant’s account after the purchase of shares of Common Stock on an Exercise Date solely by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional share will be carried forward to the next Purchase Period and, if such Exercise Date is the final Exercise Date of an Offering, will be carried forward to the next Offering; any other balance remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of an Offering will be refunded to the Participant promptly.
10. Issuance of Certificates. Certificates or book-entries at the Company’s transfer agent representing shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan may be issued only in the name of the employee, in the name of the employee and another person of legal age as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, or in the name of a broker authorized by the employee to be his, her or their nominee for such purpose.
11. Definitions.
The term “Class B Common Stock” means shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.

The term “Participant” means an individual who is eligible as determined in Section 3 and who has complied with the provisions of Section 4.
The term “Purchase Period” means a period of time within an Offering, as may be specified by the Administrator in accordance with Section 2, generally beginning on the Offering Date or the next day following an Exercise Date within an Offering, and ending on an Exercise Date. An Offering may consist of one or more Purchase Periods.

The term “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code.
12. Rights on Termination of Employment. If a Participant’s employment terminates for any reason before the Exercise Date for any Offering, no payroll deduction will be taken from any pay due and owing to the Participant and the balance in the Participant’s account will be paid to such Participant or, in the case of such Participant’s death, to his or her designated beneficiary as if such Participant had withdrawn from the Plan under Section 7. An employee will be deemed to have terminated employment, for this purpose, if the corporation that employs him or her, having been a Designated Subsidiary, ceases to be a Subsidiary, or if the employee is transferred to any corporation other than the Company or a Designated Subsidiary; provided, however, that if a Participant transfers from an Offering under the 423 Component to an Offering under the Non-423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Option will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent that such exercise complies with Section 423 of the Code. If a Participant transfers from an Offering under the Non-423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Option will remain non-qualified under the Non-423 Component. An employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment for this purpose if the employee is on an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness or for any other purpose approved by the Company, if the employee’s right to reemployment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Administrator otherwise provides in writing.
13. Special Rules and Sub-Plans. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrator may adopt special rules applicable to the employees of a particular Designated Subsidiary whenever the Administrator determines that such rules are necessary or appropriate for the implementation of the Plan in a jurisdiction where such Designated Subsidiary has employees; provided that if such special rules or sub-plans are inconsistent with the requirements of Section 423(b) of the Code, the employees subject to such special rules or sub-plans will participate in the Non-423 Component. Any special rules or sub-plans established pursuant to this Section 13 shall, to the extent possible, result in the employees subject to such rules having substantially the same rights as other Participants in the Plan.
14. Optionees Not Stockholders. Neither the granting of an Option to a Participant nor the deductions from his or her pay shall constitute such Participant a holder of the shares of Common Stock covered by an Option under the Plan until such shares have been purchased by and issued to the Participant.
15. Rights Not Transferable. Rights under the Plan are not transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and are exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant.
16. Application of Funds. All funds received or held by the Company under the Plan may be combined with other corporate funds and may be used for any corporate purpose.
17. Adjustment in Case of Changes Affecting Common Stock. In the event of a subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the payment of a dividend in Common Stock or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares approved for the Plan and any share limitation set forth in Section 8 shall be equitably or proportionately adjusted to give proper effect to such event. In the case of and subject to the consummation of a Sale Event, the Administrator, in its discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any right under the Plan or to facilitate such transactions or events:
(a) To provide for either (i) termination of any outstanding Option in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such Option had such Option been currently exercisable or (ii) the replacement of such outstanding Option with other options or property
2024 Proxy StatementA-4


TABLE OF CONTENTS

selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion;
(b) To provide that the outstanding Options under the Plan shall be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for similar options covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices;
(c) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Options under the Plan and/or in the terms and conditions of outstanding Options and Options that may be granted in the future;
(d) To provide that the Offering with respect to which an Option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such Offering will end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the Sale Event. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s Option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s Option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering in advance of the New Exercise Date as provided in Section 7 hereof; or

Each share of Class B Common Stock shall be convertible into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder thereof at any time upon written notice to the Corporation (an “Optional Class B Conversion Event”).

If the shares of Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Class B Common Stock are to be converted are to be issued in a name or names other than the name of the holder of the shares of Class B Common Stock being converted, such notice shall be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the holder. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled upon such conversion (if such shares of Class A Common Stock are certificated) or shall register such shares of Class A Common Stock in book-entry form (if such shares of Class A Common Stock are uncertificated). Such conversion shall be deemed to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted following or contemporaneously with the provision of written notice of such conversion election as required by this Subsection 7.1, the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to be outstanding as of such time, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to be the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock as of such time. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, shares of Class B Common Stock represented by a lost, stolen or destroyed stock certificate may be converted pursuant to an Optional Class B Conversion Event if the holder thereof notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and makes an affidavit of that fact acceptable to the Corporation and executes an agreement acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificate.
7.2 Automatic Conversion of Class B Common Stock.

(b) Reduction in Voting Power. Each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall automatically, without further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock upon the first date on which the Founder, together with all other Qualified Stockholders, collectively cease to beneficially own at least 20% of the number of shares of Class B Common Stock (as such number of shares is equitably adjusted in respect of any reclassification, stock dividend, subdivision, combination or recapitalization of the Class B Common Stock) collectively held by the Founder and his Permitted Transferees as of the Effective Date.

Each outstanding stock certificate (if shares are in certificated form) that, immediately prior to the occurrence of a Mandatory Class B Conversion Event, represented one or more shares of Class B Common Stock subject to such Mandatory Class B Conversion Event shall, upon such Mandatory Class B Conversion Event, be deemed to represent an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, without the need for surrender or exchange thereof.

Each share of Class B Common Stock that is converted pursuant to Subsection 7.1 or 7.2 shall thereupon automatically be retired and shall not be available for reissuance.
7.4 Policies and Procedures. The Corporation may, from time to time, establish such administrative policies and procedures, not in violation of applicable law or the other provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Corporation, relating to the conversion of the Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, as it may deem necessary or advisable in connection therewith (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that this sentence shall not authorize or empower the Corporation to expand upon the events that constitute a Mandatory Class B Conversion Event).

9. Protective Provisions. Unless such action is first approved by the affirmative vote (or written consent) of the holders of two-thirds (2/3rd) of the then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, voting as a separate class, in addition to any other vote required by applicable law, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, prior to the Final Conversion Date, the Corporation shall not, whether by merger, consolidation, certificate of designation or otherwise (i) amend, alter, repeal or waive any provision of Part A of this Article IV (or adopt any provision inconsistent therewith), or (ii) except for the shares of Class B Common Stock issued pursuant to the Merger and as provided in Section 10 below, authorize, or issue any shares of, any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation entitling the holder thereof to more than (1) vote for each share thereof or entitling any class or series of securities to designate or elect directors as a class or series separate from the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock.
