Table of Contents our Class E common stock and quorum will require the presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of outstanding shares of Class E common stock. When voting on a proposal to amend the terms of the LTBT or the rights of our Class T common stock or to redeem our Class T common stock, in addition to the requisite approval of our Class A common stock as described more fully in the section titled “—Changes to the LTBT and Class T Common Stock,” the requisite approval of our Class E common stock will require: • • until the third anniversary of the completion of this offering, if our Class F common stock is acting pursuant to the unanimous approval of the Continuing Founders, a majority of the votes cast by our Class E common stock (subject to a quorum of 40% of our outstanding Class E common stock); or at any time when our Class F common stock remains outstanding, 75% of the votes cast by our Class E common stock (subject to a quorum of a majority of outstanding Class E common stock). Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which will become effective immediately prior to the completion of this offering, will authorize Class E common stock, which will be issued to our employees as follows: (i) one share of Class E common stock for each six months of employment completed with us and (ii) one share of Class E common stock for each share of Class A common stock that such employee has pledged to donate through our donation matching program, or any similar program we may establish in the future. The timing for issuing Class E common stock will be determined after the closing of this offering. Our co-founders will not receive any shares of Class E common stock, and to the extent that a holder of Class E common stock later serves as a successor to any co-founder’s interest in the Founder LLC, they will not be able to vote any Class E common stock they hold during the period of such service. Following an employee’s separation from employment with us other than for cause, one-half of such employee’s then-outstanding shares of Class E common stock will be automatically redeemed by us annually, and all of such employee’s shares will be automatically redeemed upon such employee’s death, incapacity, termination for cause, or commencement of service with a direct competitor. All shares of Class E common stock will also be automatically redeemed at such time as no Class F common stock remains outstanding. Any redemption of Class E common stock will be made for no consideration. Board Governance Decisions regarding our business and affairs are made by our board of directors. Immediately prior to the completion of this offering, we will enter into the Stockholders’ Agreement with the LTBT and the Founder LLC, under which they will agree to vote their shares and take other actions to give effect to the board composition, director nomination, and director removal provisions described in our governing documents. Collectively, the LTBT and the Founder LLC will have the ability to elect all members of our board of directors. Regardless of the class or classes of stock by which a director is elected, there is no limit to the number of terms a director may serve. While the LTBT has significant influence over our board of directors through its ability to generally elect and remove a majority of the authorized members of our board of directors, neither the LTBT nor the Trustees have decision-making authority in the day-to-day management or strategy setting of the company. The LTBT’s role is to select directors who are well-equipped to make decisions in furtherance of the responsible balancing of the pecuniary interests of our stockholders, the best interests of those materially affected by our conduct, and the Company Purpose, and to support our management’s decision-making through advice and guidance. The Trustees aim to choose directors who have the necessary business skills, experience, and expertise to oversee the management of our business effectively and in a manner that responsibly balances (i) the pecuniary interests of our stockholders, (ii) the best interests of those materially affected by our conduct, and (iii) the Company Purpose. The Founder LLC will also have significant influence over our business and affairs through its ability to vote our Class F common stock, which is entitled to an aggregate number of votes that equals 50.1% of the total voting power of our outstanding shares of capital stock as of the applicable record date with respect to matters submitted to stockholders generally. The Founder LLC will be able to elect and remove the directors who are not Class T directors and determine the outcome of all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders generally 250
