The following communication was shared with Olo Inc. employees through Slack:

Team - I'm excited to share that this morning we announced that Olo entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Thoma Bravo. The related press release can be found at https://investors.olo.com/news/news-details/2025/Olo-Enters-into-Definitive-Agreement-to-be-Acquired-by-Thoma-Bravo/default.aspx and I also sent everyone an email with details of the announcement including my view on Olo's bright future.

For those unfamiliar with Thoma Bravo, it is a leading software investment firm that specializes in investing in innovative, high-quality companies. They're focused on backing leaders in each respective category and providing strategic and operational support to experienced management teams. With Thoma Bravo's resources and expertise, I believe this transaction will allow us to realize Olo's vision and capitalize on the significant opportunity in our market.

Please join us for a special all-hands meeting at 12:00 p.m. ET today to discuss today's news. Details on how to join the meeting will be sent separately.

We plan to host a more in-depth meeting with the full team next week after the holiday weekend. More details to come on that as well.

While we plan to address everything we are able to during these meetings, you may reach out to your Operating Team leader with any questions you may have.

Looking forward to seeing everyone shortly. Excelsior!

#### Forward-Looking Statements
This communication and Olo's (the "Company") other filings and press releases may contain forward-looking statements, which include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, such as statements regarding our expectations, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "intend," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "project," "aim," "potential," "continue," "ongoing," "goal," "can," "seek," "target" or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements are based on management's current beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company, all of which are subject to change. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including: (i) the risk that the proposed merger may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the Company's business and the price of the Company's common stock; (ii) the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to the consummation of the proposed merger (the "Merger"), including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals; (iii) the failure to obtain stockholder approval; (iv) the occurrence of any fact, event, change, development or circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement with Project Hospitality Parent, LLC ("Parent") and Project Hospitality Merger Sub, Inc. ("Merger Sub") (the "Merger Agreement"), including in circumstances requiring the Company to pay a termination fee; (v) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed transaction on the Company's business relationships, operating results and business generally; (vi) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts the Company's current plans and operations; (vii) the Company's ability to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with key business partners and customers, and others with whom it does business, in light of the proposed transaction; (viii) risks related to diverting management's attention from the Company's ongoing business operations; (ix) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed Merger; (x) potential litigation relating to the Merger that could be instituted against the parties to the Merger Agreement or their respective directors, managers or officers, including the effects of any outcomes related thereto; (xi) continued availability of capital and financing and rating agency actions; (xii) certain restrictions during the pendency of the Merger that may impact the Company's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiii) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including but not limited to acts of terrorism, war or hostilities, as well as management's response to any of the aforementioned factors; (xiv) the impact of adverse general and industry-specific economic and market conditions; (xv) uncertainty as to timing of completion of the proposed Merger; (xvi) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting the Company's business and (xvii) other risks described in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), such risks and uncertainties described under the headings "Forward-Looking Statements," "Risk Factors" and other sections of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2025, the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 8, 2025, and subsequent filings. No list or discussion of risks or uncertainties should be considered a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted or unknown factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, and legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the completion of the Merger and/or the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations, credit rating or liquidity. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

#### Additional Information and Where to Find It
In connection with the proposed transaction by and among the Company, a Delaware corporation, Parent, a Delaware limited liability company, and Merger Sub, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, this communication is being made in respect of the pending Merger involving the Company and Parent. The Company will file with the SEC a proxy statement on Schedule 14A relating to its special meeting of stockholders and may file or furnish other documents with the SEC regarding the pending Merger. When completed, a definitive proxy statement will be mailed to the Company's stockholders. This document is not a substitute for the proxy statement or any other document which the Company may file with the SEC. INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CAREFULLY READ THE PROXY STATEMENT REGARDING THE PENDING MERGER AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT ARE FILED OR WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THESE DOCUMENTS AND DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE THEREIN, IN THEIR ENTIRETY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PENDING MERGER AND RELATED MATTERS.
