Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these materials.

Our Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Under the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent. Under the Nasdaq listing standards, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that listed company’s board of directors, that director does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Audit committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Compensation committee members must also satisfy the additional independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market.

Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each of our directors. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board of Directors has determined that each of Mses. Hammonds and Napolitano, General McMaster, and Messrs. Chadwick, Eschenbach, Gassner, McDermott, Scheinman, Subotovsky and SwansonSubotovsky do not have a material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officerthat would interfere with the exercise of an organization that has a relationship within the company) that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or herthe responsibilities of a director, and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Bart Swanson, who served on our Board of Directors for all of fiscal year 2022, was also independent during his time on our Board of Directors. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described in the section titled “Related“Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions.”

Eric S. Yuan currently serves as both the Chairman of our Board of Directors and as our Chief Executive Officer. Our independent directors bring experience, oversight and expertise from outside of our company, while Mr. Yuan brings company-specific experience and expertise. As our founder, Mr. Yuan is best positioned to identify strategic priorities, lead critical discussion and execute our business plans. We believe that the structure of our Board of Directors and its committees provides effective independent oversight of management while Mr. Yuan’s combined role enables strong leadership, creates clear accountability and enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to stockholders.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that if the Chairman of our Board of Directors is not an independent director, our independent directors will designate one of the independent directors to serve as Lead Independent Director. Because Mr. Yuan is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, our Board of Directors, including the independent directors, has appointed Dan Scheinman to serve as our Lead Independent Director. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Scheinman presides over regularly scheduled executive sessions of our independent directors, coordinate activities of the independent directors, presides over any portions of meetings of our Board of Directors at which the performance of our Board of Directors is presented or discussed, and performs such additional duties as our Board of Directors otherwise determines and delegates.

During our fiscal year ended January 31, 2021,2022, our Board of Directors held 2911 meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings), and each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board of Directors held during the period for which he or she has been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board of Directors on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served.

We encourage our directors to attend our annual meeting of stockholders. All of our then-serving directors attended the annual meeting of stockholders in 2020.2021.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee uses a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating director nominees. In its evaluation of director candidates, including director candidates nominated by stockholders, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the current size and composition of our Board of Directors and the needs of our Board of Directors and the respective committees of our Board of Directors.

Following such a reviewThe Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy in place during fiscal 2022 is described below, and had been most recently reviewed and updated by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors effective in fiscal 2021 after carefully considering market data analysis and recommendations from RadfordAon as well as the increased demands on and time commitment required by our directors, in November 2020,directors. No changes were made to our Compensation Committee recommended, and our Board of Directors approved increased cash and equity compensation, payable to all Eligible Directors beginning as of November 1, 2020. The Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy in place during fiscal 2021 (noting the November 2020 increases) is2022. Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors again evaluated our Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy and approved certain changes in early fiscal 2023, which are described below.

Restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) granted under our Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy areduring fiscal 2022 were structured to compensate Eligible Directors over a three-year period, or such shorter period of time that corresponds with an Eligible Director’s expected term on our Board of Directors. As a result, RSU grant values under our Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy may be higher than the grant values of other companies whothat make annual RSU grants to each of their directors every year, as our RSU grants occur less frequently.

Under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy terms in place for fiscal 2022, each Eligible Director is eligible to receive an RSU award calculated based on a grant value of $450,000 (increased to $600,000 effective November 2020) (the “Target RSU”). The RSU award is automatically granted to each Eligible Director at the following times and will beis pro-rated as described below.

In addition, to adjust Eligible Directors to the above schedule after our IPO, each Eligible Director who held an unvested equity award as of the original May 2019 effective date of the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy willwould receive, at the time such unvested award becomes fully vested, a Target RSU, pro-rated for the period of time remaining in such Eligible Director’s term by multiplying the Target RSU by the percentage obtained by dividing the total number of expected calendar days that remain in the Eligible Director’s term (such

All of the RSUs granted under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy are granted under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) and vest in substantially equal quarterly installments over the Eligible Director’s expected applicable term, provided that if our annual meeting of stockholders at which the scheduled term ends occurs prior to the last vesting date, the award will become fully vested as of the day immediately preceding the annual meeting date, subject to the Eligible Director’s continuous service (as defined in the 2019 Plan) through each such applicable vesting date. All RSUs granted pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy will accelerate and vest in full upon (i) the Eligible Director’s death or disability (as defined in the 2019 Plan) or (ii) a change in control (as defined in the 2019 Plan), subject to the Eligible Director’s continuous service through such date.

Effective for RSU grants on and after May 29, 2020, theThe number of shares underlying each RSU award granted under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy is determined by dividing the Target RSU (as pro-rated if applicable) by a 60-trading day trailing average closing stock price of our Class A common stock. Prior to May 29, 2020, the closing stock price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant of each RSU award was used to determine the number of shares underlying such RSU award. The Compensation Committee decided to useuses the 60-trading day trailing average closing price, rather than a single day stock price on the date of grant, in order to provide a more stabilized stock value less susceptible to possible swings in the market. The Compensation Committee understands that this process can result in the ultimate grant date value of an award as required to be reported in the Director Compensation Table under ASC 718 being higher or lower than the Target RSU value, but has considered, in consultation with Radford,Aon, various approaches to granting equity awards, each of which have advantages and disadvantages, and determined that the process described above is the most appropriate for Zoom at this time.

The following table provides information regarding the total compensation that was earned by each of our non-employee directors in our fiscal year ended January 31, 2021.2022.

Our Board of Directors currently consists of ten10 members. In accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our Board of Directors is divided into three staggered classes of directors. At the Annual Meeting, threefour Class IIIII directors will be elected for a three-year term to succeed the same class whose term is then expiring.

Each director’s term continues until the election and qualification of his or her successor, or such director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of our directors. This classification of our Board of Directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control of our company.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has recommended, and our Board of Directors has approved, Jonathan Chadwick, Kimberly Hammondseach of Carl M. Eschenbach, William R. McDermott, Janet Napolitano and Dan Scheinman,Santiago Subotovsky, as nominees for election as Class IIIII directors at the Annual Meeting. If elected, each of Ms. HammondsNapolitano and Messrs. ChadwickEschenbach, McDermott and ScheinmanSubotovsky will serve as Class IIIII directors until our 20242025 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Each of the nominees is currently a director of our company. Messrs. Eschenbach and Subotovsky are up for re-election this year and Ms. Napolitano and Mr. McDermott are up for election for the first time since being appointed to the Board in November 2020 and March 2022, respectively. Regarding Ms. Napolitano's and Mr. McDermott's appointments, non-management directors provided the Board and management with information regarding several potential candidates in each instance. After performing further evaluation of Ms. Napolitano's and Mr. McDermott's particular experiences, qualifications, attributes, and skills, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended each of their appointments to the Board.
