The Audit Committee met 7 times in 2024.

#### Compensation Committee
Our Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things:

• reviewing and approving or making recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers;

• reviewing and approving or making recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding our incentive compensation and equity-based plans, policies and programs;

• reviewing and approving all employment agreement and severance arrangements for our executive officers;

• reviewing and making recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding the compensation of our directors; and

• retaining and overseeing any compensation consultants.

The Compensation Committee generally considers the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations when making decisions regarding the compensation of non-employee directors and executive officers (other than the Chief Executive Officer). Pursuant to the Compensation Committee’s charter, which is available on our website at www.evolvtechnology.com , the Compensation Committee has the authority to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. Since 2021, the Compensation Committee has engaged FW Cook, a compensation consulting firm (“FWC”), to assist in making decisions regarding the amount and types of compensation to provide our executive officers and non-employee directors. FWC reports directly to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has considered the adviser independence factors required under SEC rules as they relate to FWC and has determined that FWC’s work does not raise a conflict of interest.

The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority under its charter to one or more subcommittees as it deems appropriate from time to time. The Compensation Committee may also delegate to an officer the authority to grant equity awards to certain employees, as further described in its charter and subject to the terms
