Q: What is included in these materials?
A: These materials include.
•The Proxy Statement; and
•The Annual Report.
1
Q: What is the purpose of the meeting?
A: At the meeting, stockholders will act upon the proposals described in this proxy statement. In addition, following the formal portion of the meeting, management will respond to questions from stockholders.
Q: What proposals are scheduled to be voted on at the meeting?
A: Stockholders will be asked to vote on the following two proposals at the meeting:
1.to elect Tyler Newton and David Silverman as Class I directors to serve for a term of three years or until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal; and
2.to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025;
Q: Could matters other than Proposals One and Two be decided at the meeting?
A: Our bylaws require that we receive advance notice of any proposal to be brought before the meeting by stockholders of Weave Communications, and we have not received notice of any such proposals. If any other matter were to come before the meeting, the proxy holders appointed by our board of directors will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.
Q: How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?
A: Our board of directors recommends that you vote your shares:
•“FOR ALL” the nominees to the board of directors (Proposal One); and
•“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (Proposal Two).
Q: Who may vote at the Annual Meeting?
A: Stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 24, 2025, or the Record Date, are entitled to receive notice of, to attend and participate, and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 74,900,258 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.
Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name
If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and these proxy materials will be sent directly to you by Weave Communications.
Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Nominee
2
If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials will be forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account. Because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a legal proxy from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.
Q: How do I vote?
A. Whether you hold shares directly as the stockholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct how your shares are voted without attending the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by signing and returning the envelope provided with the proxy card. If you hold shares beneficially in street name, you may vote by submitting voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, trust, or other similar organization or other holder of record. You may vote by mail or follow any other alternative voting procedure (such as telephone or internet voting) described on your Notice. To use an alternative voting procedure, follow the instructions on each voting instruction form and/or proxy card that you receive. The alternative voting procedures are as follows:
Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name
If you are a stockholder of record, you may:
•vote by telephone or through the internet – in order to do so, please follow the instructions shown on your Notice or proxy card;
•vote by mail – if you request or receive a paper proxy card or voting instructions by mail, simply complete, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it before the meeting in the pre-paid envelope provided; or
•vote virtually at the meeting – to be admitted to the Annual Meeting at virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025, you must enter the 16-digit Control Number found next to the label "Control Number" on your Notice of Internet Availability, proxy card, or voting instruction form, after which you may virtually attend and participate in the Annual Meeting and vote your shares electronically before the polls close during the Annual Meeting.
Votes submitted by telephone or through the internet must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on May 20, 2025. If you vote by mail, your proxy card must be received by May 20, 2025. Submitting your proxy, whether by telephone, through the internet or by mail if you request or receive a paper proxy card, will not affect your right to vote in person virtually should you decide to attend and participate in the meeting virtually.
Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Other Nominee
3
If you are not the stockholder of record, please refer to the voting instructions provided by your nominee to direct it how to vote your shares. Your vote is important. To ensure that your vote is counted, complete and mail the voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee as directed by your nominee. To electronically vote in person virtually at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain your Control Number and a legal proxy from your nominee. Follow the instructions from your nominee included with our proxy materials or contact your nominee to request a proxy form.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to participate in the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure that your vote is counted.
Q: How do I vote by internet or telephone?
A. If you wish to vote by internet or telephone, you may do so by following the voting instructions included on your Notice or proxy card or voting instruction form. Please have each Notice or proxy card or voting instruction form you received in hand when you vote over the internet or by telephone as you will need information specified therein to submit your vote. The giving of such a telephonic or internet proxy will not affect your right to electronically vote (as detailed above) should you decide to virtually attend the meeting.
The telephone and internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders' identities, to allow stockholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that stockholders' instructions have been recorded properly.
Q: What shares can I vote?
A: Each share of Weave Communications common stock issued and outstanding as of the close of business on March 24, 2025 is entitled to vote on all items being voted on at the meeting. You may vote all shares owned by you as of March 24, 2025, including (1) shares held directly in your name as the stockholder of record, and (2) shares held for you as the beneficial owner in street name through a broker, bank, trustee, or other nominee.
Q: How many votes am I entitled to per share?
A: Each holder of shares of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held as of March 24, 2025.
Q: What is the quorum requirement for the meeting?
A: The holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the Record Date must be in attendance virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting in order to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This presence is called a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you attend virtually and electronically vote at the Annual Meeting or if you have properly submitted a proxy.
4
Q: How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?
A: Abstentions (i.e., shares present at the Annual Meeting and marked “abstain”) are deemed to be shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote, and are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. Abstentions have no effect on Proposal Two.
A broker non-vote occurs when the beneficial owner of shares fails to provide the broker, bank or other nominee that holds the shares with specific instructions on how to vote on any "non-routine" matters brought to a vote at the stockholders meeting. In this situation, the broker, bank or other nominee will not vote on the “non-routine” matter. Broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present and have no effect on Proposal One or Proposal Two.
Note that if you are a beneficial holder, brokers and other nominees will be entitled to vote your shares on “routine” matters without instructions from you. The only proposal that would be considered “routine” in such event is the proposal for the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (Proposal Two). A broker or other nominee will not be entitled to vote your shares on any “non-routine” matters, absent instructions from you. “Non-routine” matters include proposals other than Proposal Two. Accordingly, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker or other nominee whether or not you plan to virtually attend the meeting.
Q: What is the vote required for each proposal?
A: The votes required to approve each proposal are as follows:
•Proposal One: Each director nominee must be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors, meaning that the two individuals nominated for election to our board of directors at the Annual Meeting receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. If you "WITHHOLD” your vote, it will have no effect on the election of directors.
•Proposal Two: Approval will be obtained if the number of votes cast “FOR” the proposal at the Annual Meeting exceeds the number of votes “AGAINST” the proposal.
Q: If I submit a proxy, how will it be voted?
A: When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors as described above. If any matters not described in the Proxy Statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote your shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, the proxy holders can vote your shares on the new meeting date as well, unless you have revoked your proxy instructions, as described below under “Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?”
5
Q: What should I do if I get more than one proxy card or voting instruction form?
A: Stockholders may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of the proxy materials and multiple Notices, proxy cards or voting instruction forms. For example, stockholders who hold shares in more than one brokerage account may receive separate sets of proxy materials or one Notice for each brokerage account in which shares are held. Stockholders of record whose shares are registered in more than one name will receive more than one set of proxy materials. You should vote in accordance with all of the proxy cards and voting instruction forms you receive relating to the Annual Meeting to ensure that all of your shares are voted and counted.
Q: Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?
A: You may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time prior to the taking of the vote or the polls closing at the Annual Meeting.
If you are the stockholder of record, you may change your vote by:
•granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically revokes the earlier proxy) using any of the methods described above (and until the applicable deadline for each method);
•providing a written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary at Weave Communications, Inc., 1331 W Powell Way, Lehi, Utah 84043, prior to your shares being voted, or
•virtually attending the Annual Meeting and voting online at virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025. Attendance alone at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically vote during the meeting online at virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025.
Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to revoke a proxy, you must contact that firm to revoke any prior voting instructions.
Q: How can I attend the Annual Meeting?
A: The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders, which will be conducted exclusively by webcast. You are entitled to participate in the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of Weave Communications as of the close of business on the Record Date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. No physical meeting will be held.
To be admitted to the Annual Meeting at virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025, you must enter the 16-digit Control Number found next to the label "Control Number" on your Notice of Internet Availability, proxy card, or voting instruction form or in the email sending you the proxy statement.
The question and answer session will include questions submitted in advance of, and questions submitted live during, the Annual Meeting. You may submit a question in advance of the meeting

at proxyvote.com after logging in with your Control Number. Questions may be submitted during the Annual Meeting through virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025. You also will be able to vote your shares online by attending the Annual Meeting by webcast.
To participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need to review the information included on your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.
If you hold your shares through an intermediary, such as a bank or broker, you may contact the bank, broker, or other institution where you hold your account if you have questions about obtaining your Control Number.
The online meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time. We encourage you to access the Annual Meeting before it begins. Online check-in will start approximately 15 minutes before the Annual Meeting begins on May 21, 2025. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time leaving ample time for the check in. Please follow the registration instructions as outlined in this proxy statement.
Q. Do I need to register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet?
A: You do not need to register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the internet.
Q: Can I submit questions prior to and during the meeting?
A: Yes, you can submit questions prior to and during the meeting. We have designed the virtual Annual Meeting to provide substantially the same opportunities to participate as stockholders would have at an in-person meeting. Our virtual Annual Meeting will be conducted on the internet via live webcast. Stockholders will be able to attend and participate online and submit questions during the Annual Meeting by visiting virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025, as further described above.
The virtual Annual Meeting format allows stockholders to communicate with the Company prior to and during the Annual Meeting so they can ask questions of our management and Board, as appropriate. If you wish to submit a question during the Annual Meeting, you may submit a question in advance of the meeting at proxyvote.com after logging in with your Control Number. Questions may be submitted during the Annual Meeting through virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025.
We reserve the right to exclude questions regarding topics that are not pertinent to Annual Meeting matters or Company business or are inappropriate. If we receive substantially similar questions, we may group such questions together and provide a single response to avoid repetition. Any questions that are appropriate and pertinent to the Annual Meeting will be answered in the live Question and Answer session during the Annual Meeting, subject to time constraints. Any such questions that cannot be answered during the Annual Meeting due to time constraints will be posted and answered on the Investors section of our website (https://investors.getweave.com/news-events/events-presentations), as soon as practicable after the Annual Meeting.
7
Additional information regarding the ability of stockholders to ask questions during the Annual Meeting, related rules of conduct, and other materials for the Annual Meeting will be available during the meeting atvirtualshareholdermeeting.com/WEAV2025.
Q: What if I have trouble accessing the Annual Meeting virtually?
A: The virtual meeting platform is fully supported across modern browsers and devices running the most up-to-date version of applicable software and plugins. Participants should ensure that they have a strong internet connection wherever they intend to participate in the meeting. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. If you encounter any difficulties while accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, a technical assistance phone number will be made available on the virtual meeting registration page 15 minutes prior to the start time of the meeting.
Q: Why is the Annual Meeting being held only online?
A: To facilitate greater stockholder attendance, participation, expanded access, improved communication and cost savings for our stockholders and our company, the meeting will be a virtual meeting of stockholders where stockholders will participate by accessing a website using the internet. There will not be a physical meeting location. We believe that hosting a virtual meeting will facilitate stockholder attendance and participation at the 2025 Annual Meeting by enabling stockholders to participate remotely from any location around the world. We have designed the virtual 2025 Annual Meeting to provide the same rights and opportunities to participate as stockholders would have at an in-person meeting, including the right to vote and ask questions through the virtual meeting platform.
Q. How can I get electronic access to the proxy materials?
A: Your Notice will provide you with instructions regarding how to:
•view our proxy materials for the meeting through the internet; and
•instruct us to send our future proxy materials to you electronically by email.
If you choose to receive future proxy materials by email, you will receive an email next year with instructions containing a link to those materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you terminate it.
Q: Is there a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?
A: For ten (10) days prior to the meeting, a list of the names of stockholders of record entitled to vote will be available for inspection by stockholders of record for any purpose germane to the meeting between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., local time, at our offices located at 1331 W Powell Way, Lehi, Utah 84043. If you are a stockholder of record and want to inspect the stockholder list, please send a written request to our Corporate Secretary at Weave Communications Inc., 1331 W Powell Way, Lehi, Utah 84043, or email ir@getweave.com to arrange for electronic access to the stockholder list.
8
Q: Who will tabulate the votes?
A: A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. will serve as the Inspector of Elections and will tabulate the votes at the Annual Meeting.
Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
A: We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting.
Q: I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?
A: The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process is commonly referred to as “householding.”
Brokers with account holders who are Weave Communications stockholders may be householding our proxy materials. A single set of proxy materials may be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you notify your broker or Weave Communications that you no longer wish to participate in householding.
If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, you may (1) notify your broker, (2) direct your written request to: Investor Relations, Weave Communications, Inc., 1331 W Powell Way, Lehi, Utah 84043 or (3) contact our Investor Relations department by email at ir@getweave.com or by telephone at (801) 656-8231. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement or annual report at their address and would like to request householding of their communications should contact their broker. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request to the address or telephone number above, a separate copy of the annual report and proxy statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.
Q: What if I have questions about my Weave Communications shares or need to change my mailing address on my stockholder account?
A: You may contact our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., by telephone at (866) 641-4276, through its website at www.computershare.com or by U.S. mail at 150 Royall St, Suite 101, Canton, MA 02021, if you have questions about your Weave Communications shares or need to change your mailing address on your stockholder account.
9
Q: Who is soliciting my proxy and paying for the expense of solicitation?
A: The proxy for the Annual Meeting is being solicited on behalf of our board of directors. We will pay the cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials and soliciting votes. We may, upon request, reimburse brokerage firms and other nominees for their expenses in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, we expect that our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone or facsimile. None of these individuals will receive any additional or special compensation for doing this, although we may reimburse these individuals for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We do not expect to, but have the option to, retain a proxy solicitor. If you choose to access the proxy materials or vote via the internet or by phone, you are responsible for any internet access or phone charges you may incur.
Q: What are the requirements to propose actions to be included in our proxy materials for next year’s annual meeting of stockholders, or our 2026 Annual Meeting, or for consideration at our 2026 Annual Meeting?
A: Requirements for Stockholder Proposals to be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials for our 2026 Annual Meeting:
Our amended and restated bylaws provide that stockholders may present proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement by submitting their proposals in writing to the attention of our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office. Our current principal executive office is located at 1331 W Powell Way, Lehi, Utah 84043. In addition, stockholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and related SEC regulations under Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. In order to be included in the proxy statement for our 2026 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals must be received by our Corporate Secretary no later than December 11, 2025 and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. If we do not receive a stockholder proposal by the deadline described above, we may exclude the proposal from our proxy statement for our annual stockholder meeting to be held in 2026.
Requirements for Stockholder Proposals to be presented at our 2026 Annual Meeting:
Our amended and restated bylaws provide that stockholders may present proposals to be considered at an annual meeting by providing timely notice to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office. To be timely for our 2026 Annual Meeting, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice at our principal executive office:
•not earlier than the close of business on January 21, 2026, and
•not later than the close of business on February 20, 2026.
If we hold our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after May 21, 2026 (the one-year anniversary date of the Annual Meeting), then notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received by our Secretary at our principal executive office:
10
•not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting, and
•not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, or (ii) the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
We have a strong commitment to good corporate governance practices. These practices provide an important framework within which our board of directors, its committees and our management can pursue our strategic objectives in order to promote the interests of our stockholders.
Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that set forth expectations for directors, director independence standards, board committee structure and functions and other policies for the governance of our company. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available without charge on the Investor Relations section of our website, which is located at https://investors.getweave.com by clicking on “Governance Documents” in the “Governance” section of our website. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are subject to modification from time to time by our board of directors pursuant to the recommendations of our nominating and governance committee.
Board Leadership Structure
Our board of directors does not have a formal policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board, as our board of directors believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the direction of the Company and the current membership of the board of directors. Our board of directors has determined that having a director who is also the Chief Executive Officer serve as the Chairperson is not in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders at this time. This separation of roles enables our Chief Executive Officer to focus on his core responsibility of leading and managing our operations and day-to-day performance, consistent with strategic direction provided by our board of directors, and our Chairperson of the board of directors to focus on leading our board of directors in its fundamental role of providing guidance to, and independent oversight of, our management. Currently, Brett White serves as our Chief Executive Officer, and Stuart C. Harvey Jr. serves as Chairperson of our board of directors.
Our Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight
One of the key functions of our board of directors is informed oversight of our risk management process. Although our board of directors does not have a standing risk management committee, it administers this oversight function directly through the board of directors as a whole, as well as through its standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. Areas of focus include economic, operational, financial (accounting, credit, investment, liquidity and tax), competitive, legal, regulatory, cybersecurity, privacy, compliance and reputational risks. The risk oversight responsibility of our board of directors and its committees is supported by our management reporting processes, which are designed to provide visibility to our board of directors and to our personnel who are responsible for risk assessment and information about the identification, assessment and management of critical risks, and our management’s risk mitigation strategies.
Our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and discussing our financial risk management policies, including our investment policies, and our major financial, accounting, tax, and enterprise risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposure. The audit committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and assists our board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management. Our compensation
12
committee reviews major compensation-related risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. Our compensation committee also assesses whether the Company’s compensation policies and practices create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our nominating and governance committee assesses risks related to our corporate governance practices, the independence of our board of directors and monitors the effectiveness of our governance guidelines.
We believe this division of responsibilities is an effective approach for addressing the risks we face and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.
Independence of Directors
New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, listing rules generally require that a majority of the members of a listed company’s board of directors be independent. In addition, the listing rules generally require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees be independent.
In addition, audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in such member’s capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee (i) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.
Our board of directors conducts an annual review of the independence of our directors by applying the independence principles and standards established by NYSE. These provide that a director is independent only if the board affirmatively determines that the director has no direct or indirect material relationship with our company. They also specify various relationships that preclude a determination of director independence. Material relationships may include commercial, industrial, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable, family and other business, professional and personal relationships.
Applying these standards, our board of directors has determined that none of the current members of our board of directors, other than Mr. White, has a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of such members’ independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities as a director and that each of the current members of our board of directors is “independent” as that term is defined under NYSE listing rules. Our board of directors has also determined that all members of our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and governance committee are independent and satisfy the relevant SEC and NYSE independence requirements for such committees.
Committees of Our Board of Directors
Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Each of these committees has a written charter approved by our board of directors. Copies of the charters for each committee are available on the Investor Relations section of our website, which is located at https://investors.getweave.com, by clicking on “Governance Documents” in the “Governance” section of our website. Members serve on these committees until (i) they resign from their
13
respective committee, (ii) they no longer serve as a director or (iii) as otherwise determined by our board of directors.
Audit Committee
Our audit committee is composed of George P. Scanlon, who is the chair of our audit committee, Tyler Newton and David Silverman. The composition of our audit committee meets the requirements for independence under current NYSE listing rules and SEC rules and regulations.

In addition, our board of directors has determined that Mr. Scanlon is an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. This designation does not impose any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than those generally imposed on members of our audit committee and our board of directors.
The primary purpose of the audit committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our board of directors with respect to oversight of our accounting and financial reporting processes, the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the performance of our internal audit function and systems of internal control, and audits of our financial statements, and to oversee our independent registered public accounting firm. Pursuant to its charter, our audit committee, among other things:
•selects a firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements;
•helps to ensure the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm;
•discusses the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviews, with management and the independent accountants, our interim and year-end operating results;
•develops procedures for employees to anonymously submit concerns about questionable accounting or audit matters; and
•considers the adequacy of our internal accounting controls and audit procedures.
Our audit committee has a written charter approved by our board of directors. A copy of the charter is available on the Investor Relations section of our website, which is located at https://investors.getweave.com, by clicking on “Governance Documents” in the “Governance” section of our website.
Compensation Committee
Our compensation committee is composed of Blake G Modersitzki, who is the chair of our compensation committee, Tyler Newton and Debora Tomlin. The composition of our compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under current NYSE listing rules and SEC rules and regulations. Each member of this committee is also a non-employee director, as defined pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The primary purpose of our compensation committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our board of directors in overseeing our overall compensation policies,
14
plans and programs and human capital management function, and to review, determine and execute our compensation philosophy, and the compensation of our executive officers, directors, and other senior management, as appropriate. Pursuant to its charter, our compensation committee, among other things:
•reviews and determines the compensation of our executive officers and recommends to our board of directors the compensation for our directors;
•administers our stock and equity incentive plans;
•reviews and makes recommendations to our board of directors with respect to incentive compensation and equity plans; and
•establishes and reviews general policies relating to compensation and benefits of our employees.
The compensation committee may delegate its authority to a subcommittee of the compensation committee (consisting either of a subset of members of the committee or, after giving due consideration to whether the eligibility criteria described within the compensation committee charter with respect to committee members and whether such other board members satisfy such criteria, any members of the board of directors) except for its exclusive authority to determine the amount and form of compensation paid to the Chief Executive Officer.
Our compensation committee has a written charter approved by our board of directors. A copy of the charter is available on the Investor Relations section of our website, which is located at https://investors.getweave.com, by clicking on “Governance Documents” in the “Governance” section of our website.
Nominating and Governance Committee
Our nominating and governance committee is composed of Tyler Newton, who is the chair of our nominating and governance committee, Stuart C. Harvey Jr. and David Silverman. The composition of the nominating and governance committee meets the requirements for independence under current NYSE listing rules and SEC rules and regulations. The primary purpose of our nominating and governance committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our board of directors in ensuring that the board of directors is properly constituted to meet its fiduciary duties.

Presiding Director of Non-Employee Director Meetings

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The members of our compensation committee during 2024 included Messrs. Modersitzki and Newton and Ms. Tomlin. None of the members of our compensation committee in 2024 was at any time during 2024 or at any other time one of our officers or employees, none had or have any relationships with us that are required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. During 2024, none of our executive officers served as a member of the board of directors, or as a member of the compensation or similar committee, of any entity that has one or more executive officers who served on our board of directors or compensation committee.

NOMINATIONS PROCESS AND DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS
Nomination to the Board of Directors
Candidates for nomination to our board of directors are selected by our board of directors based on the recommendation of our nominating and governance committee in accordance with its charter, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the criteria approved by our board of directors regarding director candidate qualifications. In recommending candidates for nomination, our nominating and governance committee considers candidates recommended by stockholders, using the same criteria to evaluate all candidates.
Additional information regarding the process for properly submitting stockholder nominations for candidates for nomination to our board of directors is set forth above under “Questions and Answers About the Meeting and Related Topics — What are the requirements to propose actions to be included in our proxy materials for next year’s annual meeting of stockholders, or our 2026 Annual Meeting, or for consideration at our 2026 Annual Meeting?”
Director Qualifications
With the goal of developing an experienced and highly qualified board of directors, with a diverse background and skill set that contribute to the total mix of viewpoints and experience represented on the board of directors, our nominating and governance committee is responsible for developing and recommending to our board of directors the desired qualifications, expertise and characteristics of members of our board of directors, including any specific minimum qualifications that the committee believes must be met by a committee-recommended nominee for membership on our board of directors and any specific qualities or skills that the committee believes are necessary for one or more of the members of our board of directors to possess.
Because the identification, evaluation and selection of qualified directors is a complex and subjective process that requires consideration of many intangible factors, and will be significantly influenced by the particular needs of our board of directors from time to time, our board of directors has not adopted a specific set of minimum qualifications, qualities or skills that are necessary for a nominee to possess, other than those that are necessary to meet U.S. legal, regulatory and NYSE listing requirements and the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters of the committees of our board of directors. When considering nominees, our nominating and governance committee may take into consideration many factors including, among other things, a candidate’s independence, character, integrity, judgment, professional achievements, skills, financial and other areas of expertise, breadth of experience, knowledge about our business or industry and ability to devote adequate time and effort to responsibilities of our board of directors in the context of its existing composition. Our board of directors does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity and inclusion; however, it affirms the value placed on diversity within our company. Through the nomination process, our nominating and governance committee seeks to promote board membership that reflects a diversity of business experience, expertise, viewpoints, personal backgrounds and other characteristics that are expected to contribute to our board of directors’ overall effectiveness. The brief biographical description of each director set forth in “Proposal One: Election of Directors” below includes the primary individual experience, qualifications, attributes and
18
skills of each of our directors that led to the conclusion that each director should serve as a member of our board of directors at this time.
19
PROPOSAL ONE: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Our board of directors currently consists of seven directors and is divided into three classes, with staggered three-year terms, pursuant to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws. Directors in Class I will stand for election at the Annual Meeting. The terms of office of directors in Class II and Class III expire at our annual meetings of stockholders to be held in 2026 and 2027, respectively. Our board of directors proposes that each of the two Class I nominees named below, each of whom is currently serving as a director in Class I, be elected as a Class I director for a three-year term expiring at our 2028 annual meeting of stockholders or until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.
Shares represented by proxies will be voted “FOR” the election of each of the two nominees named below unless the proxy is marked to withhold authority to so vote. If any nominee for any reason is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holder might determine. Each nominee has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve if elected. Proxies may not be voted for more than the two directors. Stockholders may not cumulate votes for the election of directors.

Equity Grants
The policy also provides for grants of stock options or RSUs (in the discretion of our board of directors) to purchase or acquire shares of our common stock under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2021 Plan, to the non-employee directors upon their initial election or appointment to our board of directors and annually during their continued service thereafter. Any stock options granted will have an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.
Pursuant to the policy, non-employee directors are automatically granted restricted stock units in connection with their initial election or appointment to our board of directors and, subject to meeting certain service requirements, at each annual meeting thereafter, provided they are continuing to serve on our board of directors. The amount of each grant is determined by using a pre-established grant date value for the initial or annual grant, as the case may be, divided by the volume weighted average price over the thirty trading days prior to and including the grant date.
In April 2024, our compensation committee recommended, and our board of directors approved, changes to its annual grant of RSUs for each non-employee member of the Board of Directors. Beginning in 2025, the grant date value for equity awards to be granted to non-employee directors when they are elected or appointed for the first time to our board of directors increased from $300,000 to $350,000. The initial grant vests in three annual installments on the first, second and third anniversary of the grant date, subject to the director’s continued service through such vesting dates.
In addition, beginning in 2025, the grant date value for equity awards to be granted to continuing non-employee directors who has served on our board of directors for at least 6 months prior to the annual meeting on the date of each annual meeting of our stockholders, increased from $150,000 to $183,000. The annual equity award vests in full on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the date of grant and the date of the next annual meeting of our stockholders, subject to the director’s continued service through such vesting date.
Non-employee directors may elect to receive all or a portion of their initial and annual grants in the form of deferred stock units that are vested settled in shares after they leave our board of directors.
All equity awards to our non-employee directors will vest in full immediately prior to any change in control of our company.
Expense Reimbursement
25
Our non-employee director compensation policy also provides that we reimburse our non-employee directors for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their duties, in accordance with our travel and expense policy as in effect from time to time.
The non-employee director compensation program is intended to provide a total compensation package that enables us to attract and retain qualified and experienced individuals to serve as directors and to align our directors’ interests with those of our stockholders.

Senior Management Annual Bonus Plan
At the start of 2024, our compensation committee approved a bonus plan for our senior management team, including our named executive officers, for 2024 (the “Senior Management Plan”). For our named executive officers, the Senior Management Plan bonus payouts were approximately 97% of their respective target amounts as follows.
| Name | Target Bonus | Bonus Payout | ||||||||||||
| Brett White | $506,000 | $490,820 | ||||||||||||

(1) Pursuant to Mr. McNeil’s employment agreement with us, the amount reflected in this column for Mr. McNeil was reduced by the $100,000 sign-on bonus Mr. McNeil was paid in July 2024. This amount is pro-rated to adjust for Mr. McNeil’s start date of March 1, 2024.
Each participant in the Senior Management Plan was eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based on the achievement of robust Company performance goals. The Company performance metrics for 2024 were revenue (weighted at 60%) and non-GAAP operating loss (weighted at 40%) (defined as operating income calculated under GAAP and reported in our filed financial statements, adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expenses). Company performance goals consisted of threshold revenue of 95% of the target level of $206,200,000 for revenue and threshold non-GAAP operating loss of $4,960,000, with a target level of $450,000 for non-GAAP operating income. Achievement of our 2024 Company-based goals approached the target levels set by our board of directors at the beginning of 2024, resulting in payout levels of approximately 97% under the Senior Management Plan.

These agreement also provide for an initial three-year term, which automatically renews for subsequent one-year periods unless either party notifies the other of an intention not to renew the agreement, and entitle the named executive officer to certain severance payments and benefits upon a termination of his employment by us without cause or by the officer for good reason, as explained below under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”
In addition, pursuant to his employment agreement with us, which became effective in February 2024, Mr. McNeil is entitled to an annual base salary of $390,000 and a sign-on bonus of $100,000, payable in July 2024. For 2024, he was eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus with a prorated target amount of up to 85% of his annual base salary under the Senior Management Plan, provided that any payment thereunder would be reduced by the the amount of his sign-on bonus. Also, pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. McNeil received 350,000 RSUs on March 1, 2024 of which one-third of the total number of underlying shares will vest on March 15, 2024, and the remainder of
35
which will vest in equal quarterly installments over the two years thereafter, subject to Mr. McNeil’s continued employment with us on each vesting date.
Awards
We grant equity awards to our executives upon their hire and promotion and anticipate making refresh grants each year if appropriate in connection with our annual merit cycle. In 2024, our named executive officers received awards of RSUs denominated in shares of our common stock that generally vested on a three-year service-based schedule.

Equity Compensation Plan Information
We currently maintain the following equity compensation plans that provide for the issuance of shares of our common stock to our officers and other employees, directors and consultants: our 2022 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Inducement Plan”), our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), our 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), and our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, (the “2015 Plan”). Each of our equity compensation plans, other than the 2022 Inducement Plan, has been approved by our stockholders.
On September 13, 2022 our board of directors adopted the 2022 Inducement Plan to permit the grant of inducement equity awards under New York Stock Exchange Listing Rule 303A.08 as a material inducement for highly qualified individuals to become our employees. Our compensation committee administers the 2022 Inducement Plan. 7,000,000 shares of our common stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2022 Inducement Plan and awards of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights and stock bonuses may be granted under the plan. The material terms of awards granted under the 2022 Inducement Plan must be disclosed in a Company press release. As of December 31, 2024, 600,000 shares of our common stock have been granted as awards under the 2022 Inducement Plan.
The following table presents information as of December 31, 2024 with respect to compensation plans under which shares of our common stock may be issued.

(2) The weighted-average exercise price is calculated based solely on the exercise prices of the outstanding options and does not reflect shares that will be issued upon the vesting and settlement of outstanding awards of restricted stock units, which have no exercise price.
(3) Includes 13,049,439 shares remaining for issuance under the 2021 Plan and 2,624,165 shares remaining for issuance or subject to outstanding purchase rights under the ESPP.

Any shares subject to awards under the 2015 Plan that otherwise would have been returned to the 2015 Plan on account of the expiration, cancellation or forfeiture of such awards following November 9, 2021 will be available for future grant and issuance under the 2021 Plan. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan increase automatically on January 1 of

In addition to the executive officer and director compensation arrangements discussed above under “Executive Compensation” and “Proposal One: Election of Directors - Director Compensation,” respectively, since January 1, 2024, the following are the only transactions or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any director, nominee for director, executive officer, beneficial holder of more than 5% of our capital stock or any member of their immediate family or any entity affiliated with any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers. The indemnification agreements and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws require us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.
Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Parties
Our written related party transactions policy states that our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as a director, beneficial owners of more than 5% of our common stock and any members of the immediate family of and any entity affiliated with any of the foregoing persons are not permitted to enter into a material related party transaction with us without the review and approval of our audit committee. The policy provides that any request for us to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, nominee for election as a director, beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock or with any of their immediate family members or affiliates in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 must be presented to our audit committee for review, consideration and approval. In approving or rejecting any such proposal, our audit committee considers the facts and circumstances available and deemed relevant to the committee, including, but not limited to, whether the transaction is fair to the Company and on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction.
