 annual measures, although we look to both short-term and long-term business outcomes. The Compensation Committee, which administers our executive compensation program, values the opinions expressed by our stockholders in these votes and will consider the outcome of these votes in making its decisions on executive compensation, along with other relevant factors.

The proxy card provides stockholders with the opportunity to choose among four options when casting their advisory vote as to the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation (i.e., holding the vote every one, two or three years, or abstaining from voting). The option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting will determine the frequency that is recommended by our shareholders for the advisory vote on executive compensation. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Stockholders will not be voting to approve or disapprove the recommendation of our Board.

The vote is advisory, which means that the vote is not binding on BlackLine, our Compensation Committee, or our Board. Thus, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our stockholders.

#### Required Vote
The option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast by stockholders will be the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that has been selected by stockholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Although the vote is non-binding, our Compensation Committee and Board value your opinion and will consider the outcome of the vote in making future compensation decisions.

#### Board Recommendation
Our Board recommends an advisory non-binding vote of every “ONE YEAR” on the compensation of our named executive officers.
