“We are celebrating our 20th anniversary this year. As I look back on the last 20 years of Procore and our partnership with the construction industry, and look towards what lies ahead of us, I am more excited than ever about the impact we can have on the construction industry. We believe the opportunities for us to help our customers manage risk, improve their financial processes and position, and connect everyone in construction on a global platform are clearer than ever before.”

 

  

Dear Procore Stockholders:

 

We are pleased to invite you to attend the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Procore Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Procore,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

 

The Annual Meeting will be held virtually, via live webcast on Friday, June 3, 2022 at 9:30 a.m., Pacific Time. We are holding the virtual-only Annual Meeting in light of public health concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, to protect the health and safety of our stockholders and employees, and to facilitate stockholder participation at the Annual Meeting. We encourage you to attend the virtual meeting. Stockholders of record can sign up to attend the virtual meeting at www.proxydocs.com/PCOR. Additional details on how to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting (including for beneficial owners) and the business to be conducted at the Annual Meeting are provided in this proxy statement, as well as in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to be mailed to you on or about April 22, 2022. The Notice also provides instructions on how to vote online or by telephone.

 

We have also made available copies of the proxy materials, which include our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (our “2021 Annual Report”), with this proxy statement. We encourage you to read our 2021 Annual Report as it includes our audited financial statements and provides important information about our business.

 

We have elected to provide Internet access to our proxy materials in lieu of mailing printed copies. Providing our proxy materials via the Internet reduces the costs associated with our Annual Meeting and lowers our environmental impact, all without negatively affecting our stockholders’ ability to timely access proxy materials. If you wish to receive a copy of proxy materials by mail or email at no charge, please refer to the instructions in the Notice.

 

Thank you for your continued support of Procore.

 

Sincerely,

The Annual Meeting will be held virtually via a live webcast on the Internet on June 3, 2022 at 9:30 a.m., Pacific Time. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) containing instructions on how to access this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (our “2021 Annual Report”) are first being mailed on or about April 22, 2022 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you held shares of our common stock at the close of business on April 11, 2022 (the “Record Date”), you are invited to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. In order to attend and vote during the Annual Meeting, you must register to attend the Annual Meeting by 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on June 2, 2022. To access the Annual Meeting, visit www.proxydocs.com/PCOR. Stockholders of record as of the Record Date may register for the Annual Meeting on www.proxydocs.com/PCOR.

      PROCORE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 2022 PROXY STATEMENT       1


Table of Contents

General Information  |  Questions and Answers

 

How does the Board recommend that I vote on each proposal?

Our Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the director nominees named in Proposal 1 and “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of PwC as our independent public accounting firm as described in Proposal 2.

Why did I receive a notice regarding the availability of proxy materials on the Internet?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet in lieu of mailing printed copies. Providing our proxy materials via the Internet reduces the costs associated with our Annual Meeting and lowers our environmental impact, without negatively affecting our stockholders’ ability to timely access our proxy materials. We have sent you the Notice because our Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request a printed set of the proxy materials may be found in the Notice. We intend to mail the Notice on or about April 22, 2022 to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Will I receive any other proxy materials by mail?

We may send you a proxy card, along with a second Notice, after 10 calendar days have passed since our first mailing of the Notice.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the stock that you own. That other person is called a proxy. We have designated Paul Lyandres and Benjamin C. Singer, or either of them, as the Company’s proxies for the Annual Meeting.

Will a list of record stockholders as of the Record Date be available?

For 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting, a list of our record stockholders as of the close of business on the Record Date will be available for examination by any stockholder for any purpose relating to the Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at the Company’s principal place of business at 6309 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, CA 93013. To access the list of our record stockholders in person beginning 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting and until the Annual Meeting, stockholders should email legalnotice@procore.com. In addition, the stockholder list will also be made available on the virtual meeting website during the Annual Meeting. Stockholders who have registered to attend the Annual Meeting will receive an access code one hour prior to the Annual Meeting that can be used to access the stockholder list during the Annual Meeting. Once the Annual Meeting begins, stockholders may click the line titled “Click HERE to view the registered shareholder list” in order to access the list.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 11, 2022 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held as of the Record Date. As of the Record Date, there were 135,519,443 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote online during the Annual Meeting or by proxy in advance. If you wish to vote online during the Annual Meeting, you must register to attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.proxydocs.com/PCOR by 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on Thursday, June 2, 2022. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote your shares by proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting through the Internet, by telephone, or by completing and returning a printed proxy card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Held on Your Behalf by a Brokerage Firm, Bank, or Other Nominee. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were held not in your name, but on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that nominee. Those shares will be reported as being held by the nominee (e.g., your brokerage firm) in the system of record used for identifying stockholders. As a beneficial owner of the shares, you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting, and you have the right to direct your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account. If you wish to attend the Annual Meeting, you must

register to attend using the instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. If you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee and upload the legal proxy to the virtual meeting website during the Annual Meeting. Further instructions will be provided to you via email once you have registered to attend the Annual Meeting.

How do I vote?

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote in advance of the Annual Meeting to ensure your vote is counted. Even if you have voted before the Annual Meeting, you may still attend and vote during the Annual Meeting. In such case, your previously submitted proxy will be disregarded. For more information, see the question below titled “Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after submitting a proxy?”

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in one of the following ways:

 

Method

  Description
  By Internet   To vote in advance of the Annual Meeting through the Internet, go to www.proxypush.com/PCOR to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the control number from the Notice or proxy card that accompanied your proxy materials. Votes over the Internet must be received prior to the Annual Meeting to be counted.
  By Telephone   To vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by telephone, call (866) 502-1485. You will be asked to provide the control number from the Notice or proxy card that accompanied your proxy materials. Votes by telephone must be received prior to the Annual Meeting to be counted.
  By Mail   To vote in advance of the Annual Meeting using a printed proxy card, simply complete, sign, and date the proxy card provided to you and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If you return your signed proxy card to us before the Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.
  In Person (Virtual)   To vote online during the Annual Meeting, you must first register to attend the Annual Meeting at www.proxydocs.com/PCOR by no later than 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on Thursday, June 2, 2022. After you successfully register, you will receive a confirmation email and an email approximately one hour prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to the email address you provided during registration with a unique link to the virtual meeting. The webcast will open 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Held on Your Behalf by a Brokerage Firm, Bank, or Other Nominee. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee (i.e., your shares are held in “street name”), you will receive voting instructions from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee rather than directly from Procore. You must follow those instructions in order to vote on the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting. If you want to vote online during the Annual Meeting, you must register to attend the Annual Meeting by following the registration instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee and obtain a legal proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. You must submit a copy of the legal proxy on the virtual meeting website during the Annual Meeting in order to vote during the Annual Meeting. Further instructions will be provided to you as part of your registration process.

How do I attend and ask questions during the Annual Meeting?

In light of public health concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, to protect the health and safety of our stockholders and employees, and to facilitate stockholder participation at the Annual Meeting, this year, we will be hosting the Annual Meeting via live webcast only. If you are a stockholder of record, you can attend the Annual Meeting live online by registering in advance at www.proxydocs.com/PCOR by no later than 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on Thursday, June 2, 2022. In order to register for the Annual Meeting, you will need your control number, which is included in the Notice or on your proxy card. After you successfully register, you will receive a confirmation email and an email approximately one hour prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to the

 

      PROCORE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 2022 PROXY STATEMENT       3

General Information  |  Questions and Answers

 

email address you provided during registration with a unique link to the virtual meeting. If you are the beneficial owner of your shares (that is, you hold your shares in “street name”), you will receive separate instructions from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee on how to register for the Annual Meeting and will use the control number provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, which will be found on your Notice or voting instruction form.

The Annual Meeting will begin at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time, on Friday, June 3, 2022. We recommend that you access the website for the Annual Meeting a few minutes before the Annual Meeting is scheduled to begin to ensure you are logged in when the Annual Meeting starts. The webcast will open 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting. Stockholders attending the Annual Meeting will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting.

We plan to have a Q&A session at the Annual Meeting and will include as many stockholder questions as the allotted time permits. If you would like to ask a question during the Annual Meeting, you may submit your question ahead of the Annual Meeting when you register to attend the virtual meeting or you may submit a question during the Annual Meeting via the virtual meeting website after you have logged into the website. To help ensure that we have a productive and efficient meeting, and in fairness to all stockholders in attendance, you will also find posted on the virtual meeting website our rules of conduct for the Annual Meeting. We will answer as many questions submitted in accordance with the rules of conduct as possible in the time allotted for the Annual Meeting. Only questions that are relevant to an agenda item to be voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting will be answered.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the Annual Meeting?

Details on how to access technical support for the Annual Meeting will be provided to you after you register to attend the Annual Meeting. We encourage you to log in a few minutes before the start of the meeting to allow ample time to address any technical difficulties before the Annual Meeting live webcast begins.

How many votes do I have?

Each holder of shares of our common stock will have one vote per share held as of the close of business on the Record Date.

What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?

Our Board does not intend to bring any other matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, and currently knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, your proxy will authorize your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) to exercise discretionary authority to vote your shares on such other matters.

Can I vote my shares by filling out and returning the Notice?

No. The Notice identifies the items to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, but you cannot vote by marking the Notice and returning it. The Notice provides instructions on how to vote by proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting through the Internet or by telephone or online during the Annual Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?

If you receive more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Notice to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after submitting a proxy?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting in one of the following ways:

 

+

Submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date or grant a subsequent proxy via telephone or the Internet;

 

+

Send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary via email at legalnotice@procore.com; or

 

+

Attend the Annual Meeting and vote online during the Annual Meeting. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, change your vote or revoke your proxy. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we

Table of Contents

General Information  |  Questions and Answers

 

  recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions or vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by telephone or through the Internet so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

Your latest-dated proxy card or telephone or Internet proxy is the one that is counted.

If you are a beneficial owner and your shares are held in “street name” on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by that brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee to change your vote.

If I am a stockholder of record and I do not vote, or if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions, what happens?

If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote through the Internet, by telephone, by completing a proxy card, or online during the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board as follows:

 

+

FOR” the election of each of the three nominees for Class I director, and

 

+

FOR” the ratification of the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will exercise discretionary authority to vote your shares.

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and I do not provide my brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee with voting instructions, what happens?

If you are a beneficial owner and do not instruct your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares, your shares will be considered “uninstructed” and the question of whether your nominee will still be able to vote your shares depends on whether, pursuant to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), the particular proposal is deemed to be a “routine” matter. Under the rules of the NYSE, brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees can use their discretion to vote “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under the NYSE rules and interpretations, “non-routine” matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of stockholders, such as elections of directors (even if not contested), mergers, stockholder proposals, executive compensation, and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported.

Accordingly, your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may vote your uninstructed shares on Proposal 2. Your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may not, however, vote your uninstructed shares on Proposal 1, resulting in a “broker non-vote” (as explained further in the question below titled “What are ‘broker non-votes’?”) such that your shares would not be counted as having been voted on Proposal 1.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and you do not plan to attend the Annual Meeting, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your nominee.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid Annual Meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting are present at the Annual Meeting virtually or by proxy. On the Record Date, there were 135,519,443 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of 67,759,722 shares must be present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting in order for a quorum to be present.

Your shares will be counted as present only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your brokerage, bank, or other nominee) or if you vote online during the Annual Meeting. Votes withheld, abstentions,

 

      PROCORE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 2022 PROXY STATEMENT       5


Table of Contents

General Information  |  Questions and Answers

 

and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the chair of the Annual Meeting or holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present at the Annual Meeting may adjourn the Annual Meeting to another date.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting. For Proposal 1 to elect directors, the inspector will count “For” and “Withhold” votes as well as broker non-votes. For Proposal 2 to ratify the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm, the inspector will count “For” and “Against” votes and abstentions and, if applicable, broker non-votes. Abstentions are not applicable with respect to Proposal 1. Abstentions will have the same effect as “Against” votes for Proposal 2. Broker non-votes on Proposal 1 will have no effect and will not be counted towards the vote total. Proposal 2 is considered a “routine” matter—accordingly, if you hold your shares in “street name” and do not provide voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, or other agent that holds your shares, your brokerage firm, bank, or other agent has discretionary authority to vote your shares on Proposal 2. We do not expect any broker non-votes on Proposal 2.

How many votes are required for the approval of the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting? How will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated?

 

Proposal

  

Vote Required for

Approval

   Board
Recommendation
   Effect of Votes
Withheld /
Abstentions
   Effect of Broker
Non-Votes

1: Election of three Class I directors

   Plurality of the shares present virtually or by proxy during the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The three director nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast “FOR” such nominees will be elected.    FOR    Votes withheld have no effect.    Broker non-votes have no effect.

2: Ratification of appointment of independent registered public accounting firm

   Affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or by proxy during the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon.    FOR    Abstentions count as votes “AGAINST” the proposal.    We do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal because it is considered to be a “routine” matter under NYSE rules. Accordingly, if you hold your shares in “street name” and do not provide voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee for this proposal, such brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee has discretionary authority under NYSE rules to vote your shares on this proposal.

When a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules, the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares are counted as “broker non-votes.”

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

We expect that preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an amendment to the Form 8-K to publish the final results.

When are stockholder proposals and director nominations due for next year’s annual meeting?

Requirements for stockholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials. To be considered for inclusion in next year’s proxy materials, stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must be submitted in writing no later than the close of business on December 23, 2022, to our Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary at Procore Technologies, Inc., 6309 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, CA 93013.

Requirements for stockholder proposals (including director nominations) to be brought before the annual meeting. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that, for stockholder proposals that are not sought to be included in our proxy materials to be considered at an annual meeting, stockholders must give timely advance written notice thereof to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices. In order to be considered timely, notice of a proposal (including a director nomination) for consideration at our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2023 Annual Meeting”) that is not sought to be included in our proxy materials for such meeting must be received by our Corporate Secretary in writing not later than the close of business on March 5, 2023 nor earlier than the close of business on February 3, 2023. However, if our 2023 Annual Meeting is held earlier than May 4, 2023 or later than July 3, 2023, the notice must be received (1) not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such meeting and (2) not later than the close of business on the later of (a) the 90th day prior to such meeting and (b) the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Any such notice must include the information required by our amended and restated bylaws. Stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act (the SEC’s universal proxy rule) no later than April 4, 2023.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay for the cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may reimburse brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. If you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote over the Internet, you are responsible for any Internet access charges you may incur.

Information Regarding the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance  |  Director Independence

 

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE. Under the listing standards of the NYSE, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the listing standards of the NYSE 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 listing standards of the NYSE, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if the listed company’s board of directors affirmatively determines that the director does not have a material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company) that, in the opinion of the listed company’s board of directors, 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 NYSE. Additionally, 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 NYSE.

Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment, and affiliations, our Board has determined that Kathryn Bueker, Nanci Caldwell, Erin Chapple, Brian Feinstein, Kevin O’Connor, Graham Smith, and Elisa Steele do not have relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the listing standards of the NYSE and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In making these affirmative determinations, our Board considered the current and prior relationships between each non-employee director or any of his or her family members, and the Company, its senior management, and its independent auditor, as well as all other facts and circumstances our Board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions described in the section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

Board Leadership

Our nominating and corporate governance committee periodically considers the leadership structure of our Board and makes such recommendations to our Board as our nominating and corporate governance committee deems appropriate. Currently, our Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders for our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Courtemanche, to serve as both Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board given his knowledge of the Company and industry and his strategic vision.

Lead Independent Director

Our corporate governance guidelines provide that one of our independent directors shall serve as the lead independent director at any time when an independent director is not serving as the chair of the Board. Because Mr. Courtemanche has served and continues to serve in both of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board, our Board appointed Elisa Steele to serve as our lead independent director in December 2021, prior to which time, Graham Smith served as our lead independent director. As lead independent director, Ms. Steele presides over periodic meetings of our independent directors, coordinates activities of the independent directors, and performs such additional duties as our Board may otherwise determine and delegate. Our Board believes that its independence and oversight of management is maintained effectively through this leadership structure, the composition of our Board, and sound corporate governance policies and practices.

Information Regarding the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance  |  Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

 

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

Our Board oversees our risk management processes, which are designed to support the achievement of organizational objectives, improve long-term organizational performance, and enhance stockholder value while mitigating and managing identified risks. A fundamental part of our approach to risk management is not only understanding the most significant risks we face as a company and the necessary steps to manage those risks, but also deciding what level of risk is appropriate for the Company. Our Board plays an integral role in guiding management’s risk tolerance and determining an appropriate level of risk.

While our full Board has overall responsibility for evaluating key business risks, its committees monitor and report to our Board on certain risks. Our audit committee monitors our major financial, reporting, and cybersecurity risks, and the steps our management has taken to identify and control these exposures, including by reviewing and setting guidelines, internal controls, and policies that govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. Our audit committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and directly supervises our internal audit function. Our compensation committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking, and also plans for leadership succession. Our nominating and corporate governance committee oversees risks associated with director independence and the composition and organization of our Board, monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines, and provides general oversight of our other corporate governance policies and practices.

In connection with its reviews of the operations of our business, our full Board addresses holistically the primary risks associated with our business, as well as the key risk areas monitored by its committees, including cybersecurity and liquidity risks. Our Board appreciates the evolving nature of our business and industry and is actively involved in monitoring new threats and risks as they emerge. In particular, our Board is committed to the prevention, timely detection, and mitigation of the effects of cybersecurity threats and incidents. Further, our Board has been closely monitoring the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, its potential effects on our business, and related risk mitigation strategies.

At periodic meetings of our Board and its committees, management reports to and seeks guidance from our Board and its committees with respect to the most significant risks that could affect our business, such as legal risks, cybersecurity and privacy risks, and financial, tax, and audit-related risks. In addition, among other matters, management provides our audit committee periodic reports on our compliance programs and investment policy and practices.

Board Meetings and Committees

Our Board is responsible for the oversight of management and the strategy of the Company and for establishing corporate policies. Our Board meets periodically during the year to review significant developments affecting us and to act on matters requiring the approval of our Board. Our Board met six times during our last fiscal year. Our Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The audit committee met seven times during our last fiscal year. The compensation committee met seven times during our last fiscal year. The nominating and corporate governance committee met eight times during our last fiscal year. During our last fiscal year, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board held during the period for which he or she had been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served. It is Procore’s policy to strongly encourage our directors to attend our Annual Meeting.

As required under applicable NYSE listing standards, our non-management directors also met four times during our last fiscal year in regularly scheduled executive sessions at which only non-management directors were present. Our independent directors met during at least one of such regularly scheduled executive sessions. Mr. Smith, who served as our lead independent director until December 2021, presided over these executive sessions.

The composition and responsibilities of each of the standing committees of our Board are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. Our Board may establish other committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time.

Committees of Our Board of Directors

Our Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of our Board are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. Our Board may establish other committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee consists of Graham Smith, Kathryn Bueker, and Kevin O’Connor. The chair of our audit committee is Graham Smith. Our Board has determined that each member of our audit committee satisfies the independence requirements under the listing standards of the NYSE, and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act. Our Board has determined that each of Graham Smith and Kathryn Bueker is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC regulations. Each member of our audit committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with applicable requirements. In arriving at these determinations, our Board has examined each audit committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their employment. Our Board has further determined that the simultaneous service by Mr. Smith on the audit committees of more than three public companies does not impair his ability to effectively serve on our audit committee.

The primary purpose of our audit committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our Board with respect to our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control and financial statement audits, and to oversee our independent registered public accounting firm. Specific responsibilities of our audit committee include:

 

+

helping our Board oversee our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, as well as the audit and integrity of our financial statements;

 

+

conducting an annual risk assessment;

 

+

managing the selection, engagement, qualifications, independence, and performance of a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, when required;

 

+

discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviewing, with management and the independent accountants, our interim and year-end operating results;

 

+

overseeing procedures for employees to submit concerns about questionable accounting or audit matters;

 

+

reviewing related party transactions;

 

+

approving or, as permitted, pre-approving, audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm;

 

+

monitoring the Company’s cybersecurity risks and initiatives;

 

+

monitoring the Company’s liquidity risks; and

 

+

preparing the audit committee report that the SEC requires in our annual proxy statement.

Our audit committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable listing standards of the NYSE, which is available to stockholders on our website at https://investors.procore.com.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Nanci Caldwell, Erin Chapple, and Elisa Steele. The chair of our compensation committee is Nanci Caldwell. Our Board has determined that each member of our compensation committee is independent under the listing standards of the NYSE and a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

The primary purpose of our compensation committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our Board in overseeing our compensation policies, plans, and programs, and to review and determine the compensation to be paid to our

+

reviewing and recommending to our Board the compensation of our directors;

Our compensation committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable listing standards of the NYSE, which is available to stockholders on our website at https://investors.procore.com.

Processes and Procedures for Compensation Decisions

Our compensation committee is primarily responsible for establishing and reviewing our overall compensation policy, plans, and benefits programs, and overall compensation philosophy. In addition, our compensation committee oversees our compensation policies, plans, and benefits programs, administers our equity compensation plans, and reviews and approves all compensation decisions relating to our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer. Our compensation committee considers recommendations from our Chief Executive Officer regarding the compensation of our executive officers other than himself. Typically, our Compensation Committee meets quarterly and with greater frequency if necessary, and meets regularly in executive session. From time to time, the Compensation Committee may invite to its meetings any director, officer, or employee of the Company, and such other persons, as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities.

Our compensation committee formed a management equity award committee and adopted a management equity award committee charter, pursuant to which it delegated authority to a committee initially comprised of our Chief Financial Officer, Chief Talent Officer and Chief Legal Officer, to grant, without any further action required by our Board or compensation committee, restricted stock units under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (our “2021 Plan”) to our employees and other service providers who are neither executive officers nor certain other members of management. As part of its oversight function, our compensation committee reviews on a quarterly basis the grants awarded by the management equity award committee. The delegation of authority under the management equity award committee charter is not exclusive, and both our Board and our compensation committee retain the right to grant equity awards.

Under its charter, our compensation committee has the right to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, independent legal counsel, and other advisers. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our compensation committee retained Compensia, Inc. (“Compensia”), a compensation consulting firm with compensation expertise relating to technology companies, to provide it with market information, analysis, and other advice relating to executive compensation on an ongoing basis. Compensia was engaged directly by our compensation committee to, among other things, assist in developing an appropriate group of peer companies to help us determine the appropriate level of overall compensation for our executive officers and non-employee directors, as well as to assess each separate element of executive officer and non-employee director compensation, with a goal of ensuring that the compensation we offer to our executive officers and non-employee directors is competitive, fair, and appropriately structured. Compensia does not provide any non-compensation-related services to us, and maintains a policy that is specifically designed to prevent any conflicts of interest. In addition, our compensation committee has assessed the independence of Compensia, taking into account, among other things, the factors set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the listing standards of the NYSE, and concluded that no conflict of interest exists with respect to the work that Compensia performs for our compensation committee.

Director Compensation  |  Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

 

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

We have adopted a non-employee director compensation policy, pursuant to which each non-employee director will be eligible to receive compensation for his or her service consisting of the cash retainers and equity awards described below. Our Board or our compensation committee has the discretion to amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the non-employee director compensation policy as it deems necessary or appropriate.

Equity Compensation

Each new non-employee director who joins our Board automatically receives, on the date of joining our Board, a RSU award having a target equity value (as defined in the policy) of $450,000 (the “Initial Award”). Each Initial Award will vest in three equal annual installments, with the first vesting date being the company vesting date (i.e., each of February 20, May 20, August 20, and November 20) that most closely precedes the first anniversary of the grant date of the Initial Award, subject to the non-employee director continuing to provide service to us through each applicable vesting date.

On the date of each annual meeting of our stockholders, each person who is then a non-employee director, and who has been a non-employee director for not less than 6 months as of such annual meeting date, will (unless waived) automatically receive an RSU award having a target equity value of $200,000 (the “Annual Award”). Each Annual Award will vest on the date of the following year’s annual meeting of our stockholders (or the date immediately prior to the date of the next annual meeting of our stockholders if the non-employee director’s service as a director ends at such meeting due to the director’s failure to be reelected or the director not standing for reelection), subject to the non-employee director continuing to provide service to us through the applicable vesting date.

In the event of a change in control (as defined in our 2021 Plan), each non-employee director’s then outstanding Initial Award and Annual Award, if any, will become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of the change in control, provided that the non-employee director remains in continuous service through such time.

Cash Compensation

In addition, each non-employee director is entitled to receive the following cash compensation for services on our Board and its committees as follows:

 

+

$35,000 annual cash retainer for service as a Board member, and an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000 for service as lead independent director of our Board, if any;

 

+

$10,000 annual cash retainer for service as a member of the audit committee, and $23,000 annual cash retainer for service as chair of the audit committee (in lieu of the committee member service retainer);

 

+

$7,500 annual cash retainer for service as a member of the compensation committee, and $15,000 annual cash retainer for service as chair of the compensation committee (in lieu of the committee member service retainer); and

 

+

$4,300 annual cash retainer for service as a member of the nominating and corporate governance committee, and $10,000 annual cash retainer for service as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee (in lieu of the committee member service retainer).

The annual cash compensation amounts are payable in equal quarterly installments, in arrears following the end of each quarter in which the service occurred, prorated for any partial months of service.

Compensation Limit

Pursuant to our non-employee director compensation policy, as amended, the aggregate value of all compensation granted or paid to any non-employee director with respect to any calendar year, including awards granted and cash fees paid by us to such non-employee director, will not exceed $750,000 in total value; provided that such amount will be increased to $1,000,000 in the first fiscal year in which a newly-appointed or newly-elected non-employee director joins our Board.

Proposal 1 Election of Directors

 

Proposal 1 Election of Directors

Our Board currently consists of nine members and is divided into three classes. Each class consists of one-third of the total number of directors on the Board, and each class has a three-year term. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election until the third annual meeting following the election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Our directors are divided into the three classes as follows:

 

+

the Class I directors are Erin Chapple, Brian Feinstein, and Kevin O’Connor, whose terms will expire at the upcoming Annual Meeting;

 

+

the Class II directors are Craig F. Courtemanche, Jr., Nanci Caldwell, and Kathryn Bueker, whose terms will expire at the 2023 Annual Meeting; and

 

+

the Class III directors are William Griffith, Graham Smith, and Elisa Steele, whose terms will expire at the 2024 Annual Meeting.

Any additional directorships resulting from an increase 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 the directors. Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that class and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified of until such director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Each of Ms. Chapple, Mr. Feinstein, and Mr. O’Connor is currently a member of our Board, and, at the recommendation of our nominating and corporate governance committee, has been nominated for reelection to serve as a Class I director. Each of these nominees has agreed to stand for reelection at the Annual Meeting. Our management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the 2025 Annual Meeting and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person by remote communication or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Accordingly, the three nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the three nominees named above. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by our Board.

Proposal 2 Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm  |  Principal Accountant Fees and Services

 

Proposal 2 Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee of our Board has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, and has further recommended that the Board submit, and the Board has submitted, the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. PwC has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2015. Representatives of PwC are expected to be present during the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither our amended and restated bylaws nor other governing documents or laws require stockholder ratification of the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Board, upon the recommendation of the audit committee, is submitting the appointment of PwC to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. If the stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the audit committee will review its future appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the audit committee may, in its sole discretion, direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the fiscal year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of Procore and its stockholders.

The affirmative “FOR” vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present by remote communication or represented by proxy during the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon will be required to ratify the appointment of PwC. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal and, thus, will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

Executive Compensation

Our compensation programs are designed to:

 

+

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

 

+

provide compensation packages to our executives that are fair and competitive, and that maintain appropriate levels of risk and reward, while promoting the success of the Company’s business; and

 

+

effectively align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders by focusing on long-term equity incentives that correlate with the creation of long-term value for our stockholders.

Under its charter, our compensation committee has the right to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, outside legal counsel, and such other advisors as it deems necessary or appropriate. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our compensation committee retained Compensia to provide it with market information, analysis, and other advice relating to executive compensation on an ongoing basis. Compensia was engaged directly by our compensation committee to, among other things, assist in developing an appropriate group of peer companies to help us determine the appropriate level of overall compensation for our executive officers and non-employee directors, as well as to assess each separate element of executive officer and non-employee director compensation, with a goal of ensuring that the compensation we offer to our executive officers and non-employee directors is competitive, fair, and appropriately structured. Compensia does not provide any non-compensation-related services to us.

Our named executive officers for the year ended December 31, 2021, consisting of our principal executive officer and the next two most highly compensated executive officers, were:

 

+

Craig F. Courtemanche, Jr., our President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chair of the Board;

 

+

Paul Lyandres, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; and

 

+

Dennis Lyandres, our Chief Revenue Officer.

Executive Severance Agreements

Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation

Corporate Bonus Program

In fiscal year 2020, we approved a cash incentive bonus plan (the “Bonus Plan”) for all eligible employees. Each participant is eligible to receive cash bonuses based on the achievement of performance goals determined in the discretion of our compensation committee.

The named executive officers were each participants in our Fiscal Year 2021 Corporate Bonus Program (the “2021 Bonus Program”), which was established pursuant to the Bonus Plan. The 2021 Bonus Program provided for payments based on the achievement of the dollar value of new subscriptions or expanded subscriptions entered into during the year net of churn and operating income goals and individuals objectives determined by the compensation committee. To be eligible to earn a payout under the 2021 Bonus Program, a participant had to remain continually employed by, and in good standing with, Procore through the applicable bonus payment date. Bonuses were paid based on annual goal achievement, as determined by our compensation committee.

In addition, we approved a Fiscal Year 2022 Executive Bonus Program (the “2022 Bonus Program”), established pursuant to the Bonus Plan. The 2022 Bonus Program provides payments based on the achievement of the dollar value of new subscriptions or expanded subscriptions entered into during the year net of churn and operating income goals and individual objectives, as determined by our compensation committee. To be eligible to earn a payout under the 2022 Bonus Program, a participant must remain continually employed by, and in good standing with, Procore through the applicable bonus payment date. Payment will be measured based on annual goal achievement, as determined by our compensation committee.

Other Compensation and Benefits

All of our current named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case, on the same basis as all of our other employees. We pay the premiums for the life, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance for all of our employees, including our named executive officers. We generally do not provide perquisites or personal benefits to our named executive officers.

We maintain a 401(k) plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain Internal Revenue Code (as amended, the “Code”) limits, which are updated annually. We have the ability to make matching and discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan. Currently, we make matching contributions to the 401(k) plan up to 4% of the participating employee’s W-2 earnings and wages. We have not made discretionary contributions. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not generally taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan.

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or earn any benefits under, a nonqualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2021. Our Board may elect to provide our officers and other employees with nonqualified defined contribution or other nonqualified deferred compensation benefits in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us (other than the 401(k) plan) during 2021.

Executive Compensation  |  Limitations of Liability and Indemnification Matters

 

Limitations of Liability and Indemnification Matters

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our current and former directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

 

+

any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;

 

+

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

 

+

unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or

 

+

any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Such limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising under federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes us to indemnify our directors, officers, employees, and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and may indemnify our other officers, employees and agents. Our amended and restated bylaws also provide that, on satisfaction of certain conditions, we will advance expenses incurred by a director or executive officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her under the provisions of Delaware law. We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers, and other employees as determined by our Board. With certain exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. We also maintain customary directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.

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

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act”) may be permitted for directors, executive officers, or persons controlling us, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Householding of Proxy Materials

 

Householding of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokerage firms) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokerage firms with account holders who are our stockholders (who hold our shares in “street name”) will likely be “householding” our proxy materials. A single Notice or set of proxy materials will 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 brokerage firm that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Notice or the proxy materials, as requested, to any stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of such documents was delivered. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice or other proxy materials, please notify your brokerage firm or us. You may direct your written request to us via email at legalnotice@procore.com, via mail at Procore Technologies, Inc., 6309 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, CA 93013, Attention: Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary, or via telephone at (866) 477-6267. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notice or other proxy materials at their address(es) and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokerage firm.
