**LYFT, INC.**

**PROXY STATEMENT**

**FOR 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS**

**To Be Held at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time on Wednesday, June 3, 2026**

This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders of Lyft, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company" or "Lyft"), and any postponements, adjournments or delays thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). The Annual Meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time. The Annual Meeting will be held virtually and conducted exclusively by live webcast. On the day of the Annual Meeting, you may participate in the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LYFT2026. Additional information on attending the Annual Meeting may be found in this proxy statement. Although you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting at a physical location, we have designed the Annual Meeting to provide stockholders the opportunity to participate virtually to facilitate stockholder attendance and provide a consistent experience to all stockholders, regardless of location. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice") containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our annual report is first being mailed on or about April [__], 2026 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The information provided in the "question and answer" format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and references to our website address in this proxy statement are inactive textual references only.

**What matters am I voting on?**

You are being asked to vote on:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the election of three Class I directors to serve until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a proposal to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a proposal to amend our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove inoperative provisions, including references to Class B common stock and update other miscellaneous provisions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a proposal to amend our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

**How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?**

Our board of directors recommends a vote:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "FOR" the election of each of the Class I director nominees of our board of directors: David Risher, Dave Stephenson and Deborah Hersman;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "FOR" the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "FOR" the approval of, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• To hold future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers every "ONE YEAR."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "FOR" the amendment of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove inoperative provisions, including references to Class B common stock and update other miscellaneous provisions; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "FOR" the amendment of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation.

**Who is entitled to vote?**

Our only voting securities outstanding are shares of our Class A common stock, which we refer to in this proxy statement as our "common stock." On August 15, 2025, each share of our Class B common stock then outstanding converted into one share of our Class A common stock pursuant to the terms of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Following such conversion, no additional shares of Class B common stock have been or will be issued. and as described in Proposal 5, we are seeking stockholder approval to amend our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove all references to the Class B common stock. As of the close of business on April 6, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting, there were [ ] shares of our Class A common stock outstanding. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal.

*Registered Stockholders*. If shares of our common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and this proxy statement was provided to you directly by us. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the enclosed proxy card or to vote live at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these registered stockholders as "stockholders of record."

*Street Name Stockholders.* If shares of our common stock are held on your behalf in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of shares that are held in "street name," and this proxy statement was forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of our common stock live at the Annual Meeting unless you follow the procedures of your broker, bank or nominee for obtaining a legal proxy. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee as "street name stockholders."

------

**How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 1:* Each director is elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. "Plurality" means that the three nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast "For" such nominees are elected as directors. As a result, any shares not voted "For" a particular nominee (whether as a result of a withhold vote or a broker non-vote) will not be counted in such nominee's favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote (i) "FOR" for a director nominee or (ii) "WITHHOLD" for a director nominee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 2:* The ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, requires the affirmative "For" vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. You may vote "For," "Against" or "Abstain" with respect to this proposal. 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. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 3:* The approval of, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative "For" vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. You may vote "For," "Against" or "Abstain" with respect to this proposal. 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. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this proposal is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on our board of directors or our company. Our board of directors and our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining named executive officer compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 4*: With respect to the approval of, on an advisory basis, the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers, the frequency receiving the highest number of votes cast at the Annual Meeting by stockholders entitled to vote thereon will be considered the frequency preferred by the stockholders. If you "Abstain" from voting on this proposal, it will have no effect on the outcome. Broker non-votes also will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this proposal is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on our board of directors or our company. Our board of directors and our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining how often we should submit to stockholders an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 5*: The approval of an amendment to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove inoperative provisions, including references to Class B common stock and update other miscellaneous provisions requires the affirmative "For" votes of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. You may vote "For," "Against" or "Abstain" with respect to this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote "Against" this proposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Proposal No. 6*: The approval of an amendment to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation requires the affirmative "For" vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote thereon. You may vote "For," "Against" or "Abstain" with respect to this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote "Against" this proposal.

------

**What is a quorum?**

A quorum is the minimum number of shares or voting power required to be present at the Annual Meeting to properly hold an annual meeting of stockholders and conduct business under our amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law. The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the voting power of all issued and outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, withhold votes, and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

**How do I vote?**

We strongly encourage you to vote online, by telephone or by mail prior to the Annual Meeting. Regardless of how you hold your shares, voting by proxy ensures that if you are unable to attend the Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting. Voting now will not limit your right to change your vote or to attend the Annual Meeting.

*Stockholders of Record*

If you are a stockholder of record, there are four ways to vote:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• By Internet prior to the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LYFT2026, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 2, 2026 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• By toll-free telephone at 1-800-690-6903, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 2, 2026 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you call);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• By completing and mailing your proxy card (if you received printed proxy materials); or.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• By attending the Annual Meeting virtually by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LYFT2026, where you may vote and submit questions during the meeting (please have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website).

If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change your vote.

*Street Name Stockholders*

If you are a street name stockholder, you will receive a voting instruction form from your broker, bank or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee in order to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Street name stockholders should generally be able to vote by returning a voting instruction form, or by telephone or on the Internet. However, the availability of telephone and Internet voting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares live at the virtual Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee.

**Can I change my vote?**

*Stockholders of Record*

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• entering a new vote by Internet or by telephone;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• completing and returning a later-dated proxy card;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• notifying the Corporate Secretary of Lyft, Inc., in writing, at Lyft, Inc., 185 Berry St., Suite 400, San Francisco, California 94107; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

*Street Name Stockholders*

If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change your vote.

**What do I need to do to attend the Annual Meeting?**

The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders, which we believe provides the opportunity for participation by a broader group of stockholders while reducing the environmental impact and the costs associated with in-person meetings. Stockholders of record and street name stockholders with a legal proxy from their broker, bank, or other nominee will be able to attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LYFT2026, which will allow such stockholders to submit questions during the meeting and vote shares electronically at the meeting.

We designed the format of the virtual Annual Meeting to ensure that our stockholders are afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting and to enhance stockholder access, participation and communication through online tools. The virtual format facilitates stockholder attendance and participation by enabling stockholders to participate fully and equally from any location around the world. During the meeting, you will have the ability to submit questions real-time via the virtual meeting website, with a limit of one question per stockholder. We will answer as many questions submitted in accordance with the meeting rules of conduct as possible in the time allotted for the meeting. Only questions that are relevant to our business operations will be answered.

To participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the control number included on your Notice, proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials to attend the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting webcast will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.

**Where can I get technical assistance if I am having trouble accessing the meeting or during the meeting?**

If you have difficulty accessing the meeting or during the meeting, please refer to the technical support telephone number posted on the virtual meeting website login page. If we experience a technical failure or other disruption, we will endeavor to post information on the virtual meeting website login page.

**What is the effect of giving a proxy?**

Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our board of directors. David Risher, our Chief Executive Officer, Erin Brewer, our Chief Financial Officer, and Lindsay Llewellyn, our Chief Legal and Business Officer and Corporate Secretary, have been designated as proxy holders by our board of directors. When a proxy is properly dated, signed and returned, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If the proxy is dated and signed but no specific instructions are given, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors as described in this proxy statement. If the Annual Meeting is

------

adjourned, the proxy holders can vote the shares on the new Annual Meeting date as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy instructions, as described above.

**How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting and who is paying for that solicitation?**

Our board of directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. All expenses associated with this solicitation will be borne by us. We will reimburse brokers or other nominees for reasonable expenses that they incur in sending our proxy materials to you if a broker, bank, or other nominee holds shares of our common stock on your behalf. In addition, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by email, by telephone or by other means of communication.

**How may my brokerage firm or other intermediary vote my shares if I fail to provide timely directions?**

Brokerage firms and other intermediaries holding shares of our common stock in street name for their customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole "routine" matter: the proposal to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are "non-routine" matters, absent direction from you.

**Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?**

We may announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC 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 will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

**I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?** 

We have adopted a procedure called "householding," which the SEC has approved. Under this procedure, we deliver a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share the same address, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of such stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing costs, mailing costs and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver 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. To receive a separate copy, or, if a stockholder is receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, such stockholder may contact us at:

Lyft, Inc.

Attention: Investor Relations

185 Berry St., Suite 400

San Francisco, California 94107

Tel: (844) 250-2773

Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank or other nominee to request information about householding.

------

**May I inspect the stockholder list?**

For a period of 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting, a list of stockholders of record as of the record date will be available for examination by stockholders of record during normal business hours at the Company's principal offices as long as the examination is for a purpose germane to the Annual Meeting.

**What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year's annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?**

*Stockholder Proposals*

Stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at next year's annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals in writing to our Secretary in a timely manner. For a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, our Secretary must receive the written proposal at our principal executive offices not later than [___], 2026. In addition, stockholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to:

Lyft, Inc.

Attention: Corporate Secretary

San Francisco, California 94107

Our amended and restated bylaws also establish an advance notice procedure for stockholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders but do not intend for the proposal to be included in our proxy statement. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that the only business that may be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders is business that is (i) specified in our proxy materials with respect to such annual meeting, (ii) otherwise properly brought before such annual meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors or (iii) properly brought before such meeting by a stockholder of record entitled to vote at such annual meeting who has delivered timely written notice to our Secretary, which notice must contain the information specified in our amended and restated bylaws. To be timely for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice at our principal executive offices:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not earlier than 8:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on [January , 2027]; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not later than 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on [February , 2027].

In the event that we hold the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders more than 25 days from the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting, notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received no earlier than 8:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on the 120th day before the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and no later than 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the later of the following two dates:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the 90th day prior to the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the 10th day following the day on which public announcement (as defined in our amended and restated bylaws) of the date of the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders is first made.

If a stockholder who has notified us of his, her or its intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders does not appear to present his, her or its proposal at such annual meeting, we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such annual meeting.

------

*Nomination of Director Candidates*

Our amended and restated bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. To nominate a director, the stockholder must provide the information required by our amended and restated bylaws. In addition, the stockholder must give timely notice to our Secretary in accordance with our amended and restated bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Secretary within the time periods described above under the section titled "Stockholder Proposals" for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement. Any notice of director nomination submitted must include the additional information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.

**Director Independence**

Our Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Under the listing rules of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company's board of directors. In addition, the listing rules of Nasdaq 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 rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, in the opinion of the company's board of directors, the director does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning their background, employment and affiliations, our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Aggarwal, Lawee, and Stephenson and Mses. Beggs, Hersman, Stevenson and Whiteside do not have a relationship 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 Nasdaq. 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, if any, described in the section titled "Certain Relationships, Related Party and Other Transactions."

**Board Leadership Structure** 

We believe that the structure of our board of directors and its committees provides strong overall management of our company. Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that provide that there will at all times be a majority of independent directors on the board of directors, as defined by the listing rules of Nasdaq. The guidelines further provide that if our board of directors does not have an independent Chair, then a Lead Independent Director will be appointed by our board of directors. We believe that having independent Board leadership, either through an independent Board Chair or a Lead Independent Director, strengthens our governance, and the independent oversight role of our board of directors. Mr. Aggarwal currently serves as our Board Chair. Mr. Aggarwal was appointed our Board Chair in August 2025, in connection with Logan Green, one of our co-founders and the previous Board Chair, stepping down from our board of directors. Prior to serving as Board Chair, Mr. Aggarwal served as our Lead Independent Director from April 2023 to August 2025 and as our Board Chair from January 2019 to April 2023.

------

Our Board Chair serves as a leader on our board of directors. Our Board Chair determines the agenda and presides over the meetings of our board of directors. The Board Chair also has the power to call special meetings of stockholders, to preside over meetings of the stockholders, and to perform such other duties as may be requested by our board of directors. In addition, the Board Chair serves as a liaison between the board of directors and management, helping to ensure the views of the board of directors in its oversight role and other feedback from the board of directors are conveyed to management.

Our board of directors believes that this leadership structure, coupled with a majority independent board and independent board committees, enhances its independent oversight of management and management's performance and the Company's strategic planning, reinforces the board of directors' ability to exercise its independent judgment to represent stockholder interests and strengthens the objectivity and integrity of the board of directors and the accountability of management. Moreover, Mr. Aggarwal has extensive experience with the Company and previously served as the Company's Board Chair and Lead Independent Director. He also has executive-level and board experience at other public companies. Accordingly, we believe he is particularly well qualified to lead the board of directors in objectively overseeing the Company's strategy, as well as evaluating the performance of management, including the performance of the Chief Executive Officer, and guide it through appropriate board governance processes.

Only independent directors serve on and chair the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and governance committee of our board of directors. As a result of the board of directors' committee system and majority of independent directors, the board of directors maintains effective oversight of our business operations, including independent oversight of our financial statements, executive compensation, selection of director candidates, and corporate governance programs.

**Board Meetings and Committees**

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our board of directors held seven meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings), and each 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 served as 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.

Although our Corporate Governance Guidelines do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our board of directors at annual meetings of stockholders, we encourage, but do not require, our directors to attend. All of the current members of our board of directors who were directors at the time attended our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

Our board of directors 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 of directors are described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our board of directors.

Our compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

A copy of the charter for our compensation committee is available on our website at https://investor.lyft.com/corporate-governance. During 2025, our compensation committee held five meetings.

***Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee***

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Mr. Aggarwal and Mses. Hersman, Stevenson and Whiteside, with Mr. Aggarwal serving as Chairperson, each of whom meets the requirements for independence under the listing standards of Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• identifying, evaluating, and selecting, or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding nominees for election to our board of directors and its committees;

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation**

None of the members of our compensation committee is or has been an officer or employee of our company. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving on our board of directors or compensation committee. See the section titled "Certain Relationships, Related Party and Other Transactions" for information about related party transactions involving members of our compensation committee or their affiliates.

**Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees**

Our nominating and corporate governance committee uses a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating director nominees. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for reviewing with the board of directors, on an annual basis, the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience required for the board of directors as a whole and its individual members. When evaluating director candidates, in its evaluation of director candidates, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers factors including, without limitation, issues of character, integrity, judgment, potential conflicts of interest, other commitments, and diversity of experience, area of expertise, and

------

viewpoints. Nominees must also have the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity and the ability to assist and support our management team based on proven achievement and leadership in the companies or institutions with which they are affiliated. Director candidates must understand the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a member of our board of directors and have sufficient time available in the judgment of our nominating and corporate governance committee to perform all board of directors and committee responsibilities. Members of our board of directors are expected to prepare for, attend and participate in all board of directors and applicable committee meetings. Our nominating and corporate governance committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem, from time to time, are in our and our stockholders' best interests.

Our nominating and corporate governance committee also considers the above factors and other factors as it oversees the annual board of directors and committee evaluations. After completing its review and evaluation of director candidates, our nominating and corporate governance committee recommends to our full board of directors the director nominees for selection.

**Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to the Board of Directors**

Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders holding at least one percent (1%) of the fully diluted capitalization of the Company continuously for at least twelve (12) months prior to the date of the submission of the recommendation. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate such recommendations in accordance with its charter, our amended and restated bylaws, and our policies and procedures for director candidates, as well as the regular director nominee criteria described above. This process is designed to ensure that our board of directors includes members with diverse backgrounds, skills and experience, including appropriate financial and other expertise relevant to our business. Eligible stockholders wishing to recommend a candidate for nomination should contact our Chief Legal and Business Officer or legal department in writing. Such recommendations must include information about the candidate, a statement of support by the recommending stockholder, evidence of the recommending stockholder's ownership of our capital stock, a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve on our board of directors and any additional information required by our amended and restated bylaws. Our nominating and corporate governance committee has discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors.

Under our amended and restated bylaws, stockholders may also directly nominate persons for our board of directors. Any nomination must comply with the requirements set forth in our amended and restated bylaws and should be sent in writing to our Corporate Secretary at Lyft, Inc., 185 Berry St., Suite 400, San Francisco, California 94107. To be timely for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, nominations must be received by our Corporate Secretary observing the same deadlines for stockholder proposals discussed above under "What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year's annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors? – Stockholder Proposals." Any notice of director nomination submitted must include the additional information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.

**Communications with the Board of Directors**

Interested parties wishing to communicate with non-management members of our board of directors may do so by writing and mailing the correspondence to our Chief Legal and Business Officer at Lyft, Inc., 185 Berry St., Suite 400, San Francisco, California 94107. Each communication should set forth (i) the name and address of the stockholder, as it appears on our books, and if the shares of our common stock are held by a nominee, the name and address of the beneficial owner of such shares, and (ii) the number of shares of our common stock that are owned of record by the record holder and beneficially by the beneficial owner.

Our Chief Legal and Business Officer or legal department, in consultation with appropriate members of our board of directors as necessary, will review and, if appropriate, forward all incoming stockholder communications to the appropriate member or members of our board of directors, or if none is specified, to our Board Chair (this excludes mass

------

mailings, product complaints or inquiries, job inquiries, business solicitations, and patently offensive or otherwise inappropriate material).

This procedure does not apply to (i) communications to non-management directors from our officers or directors who are stockholders or (ii) stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, which are discussed above under "What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year's annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors? – Stockholder Proposals."

**Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics**

Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that address items such as the qualifications and responsibilities of our directors and director candidates, including independence standards, and corporate governance policies and standards applicable to us in general. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at https://investor.lyft.com/corporate-governance. We will post amendments to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or any waivers of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for directors and executive officers on the same website or in filings under the Exchange Act.

**Insider Trading Policy and Compliance**

Our board of directors has adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other disposition of our securities by directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons. We believe this policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the exchange listing standards applicable to us. A copy of our Insider Trading Policy was filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.

From time to time, we may engage in transactions in our own securities. We comply with all applicable securities laws when engaging in transactions in our securities.

**Board Evaluation**

Our board of directors conducts an annual evaluation of the performance of individual directors, the board as a whole, and each of the board's standing committees, including an evaluation of the qualifications of individual members of the board of directors and its committees. The results of the evaluation and any recommendations for improvement are provided orally to our board of directors and the other standing committees of the board either by the Board Chair, a member of our legal team or a legal advisor.

**Corporate Sustainability Board Oversight Framework** 

Our board assesses and evaluates our overall sustainability strategy and how sustainability integrates into our long-term strategy. At the committee level, our nominating and corporate governance committee is primarily responsible for oversight of our sustainability matters, including communications with stockholders and other stakeholders, such as overseeing our sustainability disclosures, reviewing the composition of our board to ensure the necessary skills are represented to oversee sustainability risks and opportunities, and educating our board on relevant sustainability matters. Our compensation committee oversees sustainability matters relating to our management and talent, including considering how our culture contributes to our sustainability efforts, and oversight of risks and goals related to human capital generally. Our audit committee oversees sustainability matters relating to disclosures, compliance, controls and risk management relating to financial matters as discussed below. Our board receives reports from the committees on these

------

sustainability matters and considers them in the context of our overall sustainability risk management, messaging, and disclosures.

We have regularly published sustainability disclosures since 2020.

**Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process**

Risk is inherent with every business, and we face a number of risks, including strategic, financial, business and operational, legal and compliance, and reputational, in the pursuit and achievement of our strategic objectives. We have designed and implemented processes to manage risk in our operations. Management is responsible for the day-to-day oversight and management of strategic, operational, legal and compliance, cybersecurity, and financial risks, while our board of directors, as a whole and assisted by its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of our risk management framework, which is designed to identify, assess, and manage risks to which our company is exposed, as well as foster a corporate culture of integrity. Consistent with this approach, our board regularly reviews our risks in the context of discussions with management, question and answer sessions, and reports from the management team at each regular board meeting. Our board also receives regular reports on all significant committee activities at each regular board meeting, and evaluates the risks inherent in significant transactions. As part of this approach, our board considers both the materiality of a risk and its likelihood in making strategic decisions and helping management to prioritize resources.

In addition, our board has tasked its designated standing committees with oversight of certain categories of risk management. Our audit committee assists our board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the Company's major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control those exposures, including the Company's guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management pertaining to financial, accounting and tax matters, internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance. Our audit committee further oversees our initiatives related to cybersecurity, including prevention and monitoring. Our audit committee also reviews the Company's risk management framework and programs, as well as the framework by which management discusses the Company's risk profile and risk exposure with the board of directors and its committees. Our compensation committee assesses risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements, and whether our compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk taking. Our nominating and corporate governance committee assesses risks relating to our corporate governance practices, the independence of the board of directors, potential conflicts of interest related to director service, and social responsibility, environmental and sustainability initiatives. These committees provide regular reports on the Company's risk management efforts to the full board of directors.

Our board of directors and its committees engage outside advisors and experts from time to time to assist in understanding threats, trends, and our risk environment in general. Our board of directors believes its current leadership structure supports the risk oversight function of the board.

**Director Compensation**

We maintain a compensation policy for our non-employee directors ("Outside Director Compensation Policy") that initially became effective upon approval by our board of directors and our stockholders in connection with our initial public offering ("IPO") in 2019. Our Outside Director Compensation Policy was developed with input from our independent compensation consultant, Pay Governance LLC ("Pay Governance"), regarding practices and compensation levels at the same group of peer companies used for executive compensation comparisons, and is intended to attract, retain, and reward non-employee directors. Our board of directors and its compensation committee periodically review the Outside Director Compensation Policy with Pay Governance's assistance. Our board of directors last amended our Outside Director Compensation Policy in March 2022 to allow our non-employee directors to voluntarily elect to receive their quarterly cash fees in fully vested restricted stock units ("RSUs").

------

We believe our Outside Director Compensation Policy provides our non-employee directors with reasonable and appropriate compensation that is commensurate with the services they provide. Based on analysis performed in 2024, which was reviewed by Pay Governance, our director compensation is competitive with the compensation paid by our peer group companies to their non-employee directors.

For 2025, the compensation paid to our non-employee directors consisted of an annual cash retainer for membership on the board of directors, additional cash retainers based on their Committee and/or board leadership responsibilities and an annual equity award in the form of RSUs as described in greater detail below. As noted above, our non-employee directors can also make a voluntary election to receive an equity award in lieu of their cash retainers.

**Cash Compensation**

Our Outside Director Compensation Policy provides that our non-employee directors are entitled to receive the following annual cash fees:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Board/Committee** | **Chair ($)**<sup>(1)</sup> | **Member ($)** | **Lead Outside ($)**<sup>(1)</sup> |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Board | 90000 | 40000 | 65000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Audit Committee | 25000 | 10000 | N/A |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Compensation Committee | 20000 | 8500 | N/A |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee | 11000 | 5000 | N/A |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The annual cash fees for the Chair of the board of directors and Lead Outside Director are inclusive of the $40,000 annual cash fee payable as a non-employee member of the board of directors.

Each non-employee director who serves as the chair of a committee shall receive only the annual cash fee as the chair of the committee, and not the annual cash fee as a member of that committee. There are no per-meeting fees for attending board of directors or committee meetings. Cash compensation is paid quarterly in arrears and is prorated as applicable for partial periods.

**Equity Compensation**

***Initial Award***

Each new non-employee director who joins our board of directors is eligible to receive an award of RSUs at the time of the director's appointment with a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with GAAP) equal to $260,000 multiplied by the fraction obtained by dividing (i) the number of full months during the period beginning on the date the person first becomes a non-employee director and ending on the one-year anniversary of the date of the then-most recent annual meeting of our stockholders (the "Initial Award Vesting Period"), by (ii) 12, rounded to the nearest whole share (the "Initial Award"). The Initial Award vests in equal installments quarterly over the remaining company-wide quarterly vesting dates occurring during the period beginning on the date that is three months following the date the award is granted and ending on the last day of the Initial Award Vesting Period, or, if earlier, on the day before the annual meeting of our stockholders that follows the grant date of the award, subject to the non-employee director continuing to provide services to us through the applicable vesting date.

***Annual Award***

Each of our non-employee directors is eligible to receive an annual award of RSUs with a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with GAAP) equal to $260,000 (the "Annual Award"). Each Annual Award is granted on the date of our annual meeting of stockholders with one-quarter vesting on each of the first four company-wide quarterly vesting dates occurring after the grant date, except that the fourth quarterly vesting date occurs no later than the day before the next annual meeting of our stockholders, subject to the non-employee director's continued service to us through the applicable vesting date.

------

***Change in Control***

In the event of a "change in control" (as defined in our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan")), each non-employee director's then-outstanding company equity awards granted under our Outside Director Compensation Policy and any other then-outstanding equity awards granted to a non-employee director (unless specifically provided otherwise in the award agreement or other written agreement with the director) will fully vest, immediately prior to the consummation of the change in control, provided that the non-employee director continues service to us through such date.

**Other Non-employee Director Compensation and Expense Reimbursement Policies**

***Limit on Board Compensation***

The Outside Director Compensation Policy includes a maximum annual limit of $1 million on the combined value of cash compensation and equity awards that may be paid, issued, or granted to a non-employee director in any fiscal year (excluding any amounts received for services as an employee or as a consultant). For purposes of this limitation, the value of equity awards is based on the grant date fair value (determined in accordance with GAAP).

***Deferred Compensation***

Non-employee directors can elect to defer the delivery of the settlement of RSUs issued under our Outside Director Compensation Policy pursuant to the terms of properly submitted deferral elections made in accordance with our Outside Director Compensation Policy. The RSUs generally may be deferred pursuant to such elections until the earliest of a change in control of the Company, within 60 days following the earlier of the non-employee director's death or other separation from service, or certain future dates specified by the non-employee director.

***Election to Receive Stock in lieu of Cash***

Each non-employee director may elect to convert any cash compensation that they would otherwise be entitled to receive under our Outside Director Compensation Policy into an award of RSUs having a value on the grant date equal to the cash amount forgone, subject to the rules of our Outside Director Compensation Policy. If the non-employee director makes a valid election in accordance with our Outside Director Compensation Policy, each such award of RSUs will be granted on the 20th day following the last day of the fiscal quarter for which the cash compensation otherwise would be paid under the Outside Director Compensation Policy, will be fully vested on the grant date and will cover a number of shares equal to (A) the aggregate amount of cash compensation otherwise payable to the non-employee director on that date divided by (B) the closing price per share as of the grant date. In 2025, Messrs. Cohen, Lawee, Stephenson and Ms. Whiteside elected to receive all or a portion of their cash compensation in fully vested RSUs.

***Stock Ownership Guidelines***

Our board of directors has adopted stock ownership guidelines establishing a minimum share ownership requirement for our non-employee directors. These guidelines provide that, within five years of becoming subject to these guidelines, our non-employee directors must hold shares of our common stock (or vested, but unsettled or deferred RSUs) with a value equal to five times their annual base cash retainer (currently 5x $40,000, or $200,000). The stock ownership guidelines do not apply to any non-employee director who elects not to receive compensation. All of our non-employee directors as of December 31, 2025 were in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines.

***Director Education and Other Expense Reimbursement***

Each of our non-employee directors is eligible for reimbursement for up to $10,000 per two-year period for documented director education expenses related to service on the board of directors or its committees. We also reimburse our non-employee directors for reasonable, customary, and documented travel expenses related to the board of directors or

------

committee meetings as well as up to $5,000 per year for membership fees or other expenses related to membership in an association related to such non-employee director's service to the board of directors or any of its committees.

**Non-Employee Director Compensation Table for Fiscal 2025**

Our directors who also serve as executive officers do not receive any additional compensation for their services as directors. The compensation received by Mr. Risher as an employee for the year ended December 31, 2025 is set forth in the "Summary Compensation Table" on page <u>[48](#ic163cd16e2f24740baf816d7307b7dbe_4095)</u> of this proxy statement. Ms. Hersman joined our board of directors in January 2026 and therefore did not receive any compensation for fiscal 2025.

The following table provides information regarding the compensation received for services rendered to us by our non-employee directors for the year ended December 31, 2025:

The grant date fair value was calculated based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant or, if the grant date was not a trading day, the closing price on the last market trading day prior to the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Represents a partial year of the board of directors and committee cash compensation for Mr. Cohen, who resigned from our board of directors in May 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Messrs. Cohen, Lawee, Stephenson and Ms. Whiteside elected to receive all or a portion of their cash retainers in the form of fully vested RSU awards. Accordingly, in lieu of their respective retainers for any portion of 2025 or January 2026, Mr. Cohen received 1,086 RSUs with a total grant fair value of $12,120, Mr. Lawee received 4,371 RSUs with a total grant date fair value of $66,028, Mr. Stephenson received 4,254 RSUs with a total grant date fair value of $65,001, and Ms. Whiteside received 3,501 RSUs with a total grant date fair value of $53,498. The retainer that each director elected to receive in RSUs is reported as though they had been paid in cash and such retainer had not been converted into RSUs. This footnote does not include any RSUs granted in January 2025 in lieu of their cash retainers earned by directors for service during the fourth quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)For Mr. Zimmer, reflects $4,045 in security fees.

Quarterly vesting dates are each of February 20, May 20, August 20, and November 20.

**PROPOSAL NO. 1 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

Our board of directors is currently composed of eight members. We have a classified board of directors consisting of two classes with three directors and one class with two directors, each serving staggered three-year terms.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors are elected to hold office until the expiration of the term for which they are elected and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal.

**Nominees**

Our nominating and corporate governance committee has recommended, and our board of directors has approved, David Risher, Deborah Hersman, and Dave Stephenson as nominees for election as directors at the Annual Meeting. If elected, Messrs. Risher and Stephenson and Ms. Hersman will serve as directors until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Each of the nominees is currently a director of our company. Ms. Hersman is standing for election by stockholders for the first time. Non-management directors of the Company recommended Ms. Hersman to the nominating and corporate governance committee for consideration as a director. For information concerning the relevant experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills of the nominee that led our board of directors to recommend this person as a nominee for director, please see the section titled "Board of Directors and Corporate Governance." Each of Messrs. Risher and Stephenson and Ms. Hersman has consented to being named as a nominee in this proxy statement and to continue to serve as a director, if elected; however, in the event that one of such director nominees is unavailable for election at the time of the Annual Meeting, the Company's proxy holders will vote for another nominee substituted by our board of directors in place of the unavailable nominee or, as an alternative, our board of directors may reduce the number of directors on our board of directors. As of the date of this proxy statement, our board of directors knows of no reason why any of such director nominees would not be able to serve as a director if elected.

If you are a stockholder of record and you sign, date and return your proxy card or vote by telephone or over the Internet but, in each case, do not give instructions with respect to the voting of directors, your shares will be voted "FOR" the election of each of Messrs. Risher and Stephenson and Ms. Hersman. If you are a street name stockholder and you do not give voting instructions to your broker or nominee, your broker will leave your shares unvoted on this matter.

**Vote Required**

Each director is elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. "Plurality" means that the three nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast "For" such nominees are elected as directors. As a result, any shares not voted "For" a particular nominee (whether as a result of a withhold vote or a broker non-vote) will not be counted in such nominee's favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote (i) "FOR" for a director nominee or (ii) "WITHHOLD" for a director nominee.

**Board Recommendation**

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" EACH OF THE NOMINEES NAMED ABOVE.**

**PROPOSAL NO. 2 RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

Our audit committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), an independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our consolidated financial statements for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, PwC served as our independent registered public accounting firm.

At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Our audit committee is submitting the appointment of PwC to our stockholders because we value our stockholders' views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. Notwithstanding the appointment of PwC, and even if our stockholders ratify the appointment, our audit committee, in its discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during our fiscal year if our audit committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of our company and our stockholders. If our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of PwC, our board of directors may reconsider the appointment. Representatives of PwC will be present at the Annual Meeting, and they will have an opportunity to make a statement and be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

**Fees Paid to the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The following table presents fees for professional audit services and other services billed to our company by PwC for our fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Audit-Related Fees consisted of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company's consolidated financial statements and are not reported under "Audit Fees." These services include accounting consultations in connection with acquisitions, attest services that are not required by statute or regulation, and consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Tax Fees include the aggregate fees billed for services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)All Other Fees include the aggregate fees for compliance-related services, assessments of climate reporting readiness, and access to online accounting and tax research software applications.

**Auditor Independence**

In making its recommendation to ratify the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, our audit committee has considered whether services other than audit and audit-related services provided by PwC are compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC and has determined that PwC is independent.

**Audit Committee Policy on Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Our audit committee has established a policy governing our use of the services of our independent registered public accounting firm. Under this policy, our audit committee is required to pre-approve all audit services and permissible non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm in order to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the registered public accounting firm's independence. All services provided by PwC for our fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025 were pre-approved by our audit committee in accordance with the policy.

------

**Vote Required**

The ratification of the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect.

**REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE**

The audit committee is a committee of the board of directors comprised solely of independent directors as required by the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market and rules and regulations of the SEC. The composition of the audit committee, the attributes of its members and the responsibilities of the audit committee, as reflected in its charter, are intended to be in accordance with applicable requirements for corporate audit committees. With respect to Lyft's financial reporting process, Lyft's management is responsible for (1) establishing and maintaining internal controls and (2) preparing Lyft's consolidated financial statements. Lyft's independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), is responsible for performing an independent audit of Lyft's consolidated financial statements. It is the responsibility of the audit committee to oversee these activities. It is not the responsibility of the audit committee to prepare Lyft's financial statements. These are the fundamental responsibilities of management. In the performance of its oversight function, the audit committee has:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management and PwC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• received the written disclosures and the letter from PwC required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with PwC its independence.

Based on the audit committee's review and discussions referred to in the bulleted list above, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in Lyft's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 for filing with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the audit committee of the board of directors:

Dave Stephenson (Chairperson)

Sean Aggarwal

Jill Beggs

Betsey Stevenson

This report of the audit committee is required by the SEC and, in accordance with the SEC's rules, will not be deemed to be part of or incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference, and will not otherwise be deemed "soliciting material" or "filed" under either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

**PROPOSAL NO. 3 ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act") enables our stockholders to approve, on an advisory or non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act. This proposal, commonly known as a "Say-on-Pay" proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers' compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific named executive officer, but rather the overall compensation of all of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement.

The Say-on-Pay vote is advisory, and therefore is not binding on us, our compensation committee or our board of directors. The Say-on-Pay vote will, however, provide information to us regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices, which our compensation committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation for the remainder of the current fiscal year and beyond. Our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders. To the extent there is any significant vote against the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will endeavor to communicate with stockholders to better understand the concerns that influenced the vote and consider our stockholders' concerns, and our compensation committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

We believe that the information provided in the section titled "Executive Compensation," and in particular the information discussed in the section titled "Executive Compensation—Compensation Philosophy," demonstrates that our executive compensation program was designed appropriately and is working to ensure management's interests are aligned with our stockholders' interests to support long-term value creation. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote "FOR" the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

"RESOLVED, that the stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers, as disclosed in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the compensation discussion and analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion and other related disclosure."

**Vote Required**

The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect.

As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.**

------

**PROPOSAL NO. 4**

**ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF**

**FUTURE STOCKHOLDER ADVISORY VOTES ON THE COMPENSATION OF**

**OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**

The Dodd-Frank Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act enable our stockholders to indicate their preference at least once every six years regarding how frequently we should solicit a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in our proxy statement. Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders to indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote every one year, two years or three years. Alternatively, stockholders may abstain from casting a vote.

After considering the benefits and consequences of each alternative, our board of directors recommends that the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers be submitted to the stockholders every year. In formulating its recommendation, our board of directors considered that compensation decisions are made annually and that an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers will allow stockholders to provide more frequent and direct input on our compensation philosophy, policies and practices.

**Vote Required**

The alternative among one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast at the Annual Meeting by stockholders entitled to vote thereon will be deemed to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

While our board of directors believes that its recommendation is appropriate at this time, the stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove that recommendation, but are instead asked to indicate their preference, on an advisory basis, as to whether non-binding future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers should be held every year, two years or three years.

As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders in this matter and, to the extent there is any significant vote in favor of one time period over another, will consider the outcome of this vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of holding future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO HOLD FUTURE STOCKHOLDER ADVISORY VOTES ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS EVERY "ONE YEAR."**

**PROPOSAL NO. 5**

**AMENDMENT TO OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REMOVE INOPERATIVE PROVISIONS, INCLUDING REFERENCES TO CLASS B COMMON STOCK AND UPDATE OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS**

**Background**

We are seeking our stockholders' approval to amend our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove any and all references to shares of Class B common stock and make other conforming changes with respect to the same.

On August 15, 2025, each outstanding share of Class B common stock automatically converted into one share of Class A common stock, pursuant to the terms of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In connection with such conversion, we filed the Certificate of Retirement with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to retire the Class B common stock that were issued but no longer outstanding following the conversion, which had the effect of reducing the total number of authorized shares of Class B common stock to 87,220,291 shares under the Restated Certificate of Incorporation. There are no shares of Class B common stock outstanding, and we have no plans to issue additional shares of Class B common stock in the future. As a result, all references to Class B common stock in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation are superfluous.

Proposal No. 5 seeks stockholder approval to amend the Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove all references to Class B common stock, including the terms and rights associated with such stock, as well as provisions relating to the conversion of Class B common stock to Class A common stock. Approval of amendments contemplated by this Proposal No. 5 would also result in the elimination of certain definitions that pertain entirely to these omitted provisions. As a result, the authorized equity capitalization of the Company would consist of 18,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and 1,000,000,000 shares of undesignated Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share. The proposed amendments do not effectuate any substantive changes to the rights of the Company or its stockholders; rather, they just simplify the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and make it more readable by eliminating provisions that are no longer applicable.

In proposing these amendments to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors seeks to streamline our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and remove historical provisions that are no longer applicable. Our board of directors unanimously concluded, on the recommendation of the nominating and governance committee, that the proposed changes contemplated by this Proposal No. 5 are advisable and in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders.

A marked version of the applicable provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the amendments proposed by this Proposal No. 5 is included with this proxy statement as Appendix B with deletions in strikethrough and additions in <u>underline</u>. This description of such amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the amendments as set forth in Appendix B.

If this Proposal No. 5 is approved by the requisite vote of our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the proposed amendments to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation reflected in Appendix B would be included in an amended and restated certificate of incorporation and would become effective upon the filing of such amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which we would file promptly following the Annual Meeting. If this Proposal No. 5 is not approved by the requisite votes of our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation described in this Proposal No. 5 and reflected in Appendix B would not become effective and would not be included in an amended and restated certificate of incorporation reflecting any other amendments adopted at the Annual Meeting, and the provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation that reference Class B common stock would remain in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

The approval of this Proposal No. 5 is not conditioned upon the approval of Proposal No. 6, which also proposes amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation. If stockholders approve both of these proposals, then we intend to file a single amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to be effective upon such filing, that incorporates the amendments contemplated by any and all of the proposals that pass.

------

The amendments contemplated by this Proposal No. 5 will not change any substantive terms of the Class A common stock or impact any powers or rights of our stockholders. The Class A common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol "LYFT."

**Vote Required**

The approval of the proposed amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to remove inoperative provisions, including references to Class B common stock and make other conforming changes with respect to the same requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote "AGAINST" this proposal.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE AMENDMENT OF OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REMOVE INOPERATIVE PROVISIONS, INCLUDING REFERENCES TO CLASS B COMMON STOCK AND UPDATE OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.**

**PROPOSAL NO. 6**

**AMENDMENT TO OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REFLECT DELAWARE LAW PROVISIONS REGARDING OFFICER EXCULPATION**

In August 2022, the State of Delaware, which is the Company's state of incorporation, enacted legislation that enables Delaware corporations to limit the liability of certain of their officers in limited circumstances. Specifically, Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("DGCL") was amended to authorize corporations to adopt a provision in their certificate of incorporation to eliminate or limit monetary liability of certain corporate officers for breach of the fiduciary duty of care. Previously, the DGCL allowed only exculpation of directors for breach of the fiduciary duty of care. As amended, Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL authorizes corporations to provide for exculpation of the following officers: (i) the corporation's president, chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief legal officer, controller, treasurer or chief accounting officer, (ii) "named executive officers" identified in the corporation's SEC filings, and (iii) other individuals who have agreed to be identified as officers of the corporation.

In light of this update in the law, we are proposing to amend Article IX of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to provide for exculpation of certain of the Company's officers from liability in specific circumstances, as permitted by Delaware law. The Delaware statute only permits exculpation for direct claims (and not for derivative claims made by stockholders on behalf of the corporation) and does not apply to breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction in which the officer derived an improper personal benefit. The amendment we are proposing would only permit exculpation to the extent permitted under Delaware law.

Additionally, consistent with the language for exculpation of directors currently included in Article IX of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, we are further proposing to amend Article IX to provide that no amendment, repeal or elimination of Article IX or adoption of a provision inconsistent with Article IX will eliminate, reduce or otherwise adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of an officer of the Company existing at the time of such amendment, repeal, elimination, or adoption. As noted, this is consistent with the protection currently provided to directors.

The proposed amendment of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation would substantially align the protections for our officers with those protections currently afforded to our directors. Our board of directors believes that it is advisable to provide for more consistent treatment of officers and directors with respect to exculpation from liability under Delaware law given that both officers and directors have similar fiduciary duties. In addition, our board of directors believes the proposed amendment would better position the Company to attract top officer candidates. In the absence of this exculpatory protection, qualified officers might be deterred from serving as officers due to exposure to personal liability and the risk that substantial expense will be incurred in defending lawsuits, regardless of merit. Our board of directors also believes this proposed amendment will strike a balance between stockholders' interest in accountability and their interest in the Company being able to attract and retain quality officers to work on its behalf. The officer exculpation provision could also potentially reduce litigation costs associated with certain lawsuits. Further, our board of directors considered the extent of exculpation provided under the law and, accordingly, the extent of our proposed amendment, which is consistent with the relevant Delaware statute, and believes that it is reasonable and does not unduly impact stockholder rights.

Therefore, taking into account the narrow class and type of claims for which officers' liability would be exculpated, and the benefits our board of directors believes would accrue to the Company and its stockholders in the form, among other things, of an enhanced ability to attract and retain talented officers, our board of directors has unanimously determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders to amend our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to provide such exculpation to the extent permitted by Delaware law, and has approved the amendment subject to stockholders' approval. In accordance with Delaware law, we hereby seek approval of the amendment of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect certain Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation.

------

A marked version of the applicable provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the amendments proposed by this Proposal No. 6 is included with this proxy statement as Appendix C with deletions in strikethrough and additions in <u>underline</u>. This description of such amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the amendments as set forth in Appendix C.

If this Proposal No. 6 is approved by the requisite vote of our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the proposed amendments to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation reflected in Appendix C would be included in an amended and restated certificate of incorporation and would become effective upon the filing of such amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which we would file promptly following the Annual Meeting. If this Proposal No. 6 is not approved by the requisite votes of our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation described in this Proposal No. 6 and reflected in Appendix C would not become effective and would not be included in an amended and restated certificate of incorporation reflecting any other amendments adopted at the Annual Meeting, and the provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation that provide for director exculpation would remain the same.

The approval of this Proposal No. 6 is not conditioned upon the approval of Proposal No. 5, which also proposes amendments to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation. If stockholders approve both of these proposals, then we intend to file a single amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to be effective upon such filing, that incorporates the amendments contemplated by Proposals 5 and 6. If only Proposal No. 6 passes, we will only file the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation contemplated by Proposal No. 6.

**Vote Required**

The approval of the amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote "AGAINST" this proposal.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE AMENDMENT TO OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REFLECT DELAWARE LAW PROVISIONS REGARDING OFFICER EXCULPATION.**

\**Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. See Appendix A for a full reconciliation.*

***Evolution of Our Compensation Program and 2025 Compensation Highlights***

Our executive compensation program has continued to evolve since our initial public offering in 2019. In 2025, we introduced a performance-based annual cash incentive plan that included all of our named executive officers for the first time. Additional details on the evolution of our program are summarized below:

------

| **2023** | **2024** | **2025** |
| **<u>Non-CEO NEO Compensation</u>** | **<u>Non-CEO NEO Compensation</u>** | **<u>Non-CEO NEO Compensation</u>** |
| Introduced performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") for annual equity award to NEOs. | Increased emphasis on PSUs to 50% of target annual equity awards for our non-CEO NEOs. | Adopted new performance-based annual cash incentive plan that includes all NEOs. |
| **<u>CEO Compensation</u>** | **<u>CEO Compensation</u>** | **<u>CEO Compensation</u>** |
| Awarded 100% PSUs to our CEO in connection with his new hire package. | No new equity awards. | No new equity awards. |
| **<u>Dilution/Broader Long Term Incentive Program</u>** | **<u>Dilution/Broader Long Term Incentive Program</u>** | **<u>Dilution/Broader Long Term Incentive Program</u>** |
| Reduced our annual stock-based compensation (SBC) to $485 million (down from $751 million in 2022). | Further reduced our annual SBC to $331 million. | Maintained roughly flat annual SBC at $322 million. |
|  | Shifted our tax withholding method for equity awards from "sell to cover" to "net share settlement" to help offset ongoing dilution. | Authorized a program to repurchase up to $750 million of our Class A common stock and completed $500 million in repurchases during the year. In February 2026, we authorized a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of our Class A common stock, in addition to amounts remaining available under our initial repurchase program. |

---

Additional highlights and details of our 2025 executive compensation program include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **No increases to base salary.** The compensation committee did not make any changes to the base salaries of our NEOs for 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adopted executive annual cash incentive plan.** Consistent with the evolution of our executive compensation program, we adopted a performance-based cash incentive plan that included all of our NEOs. The new bonus opportunity for our non-CEO NEOs was taken into account in planning for their fiscal 2025 annual equity awards such that the target fiscal 2025 annual equity values were lower than they would have been had we not adopted the new cash incentive plan. Based on our achievement of the pre-defined targets for Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA, payouts under the plan were 108.5% of target.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Continued emphasis on PSUs.** Maintained our target mix of 50% PSUs and 50% RSUs for our participating NEOs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **No new CEO award.** As noted above, our CEO did not receive an equity award in 2024 or 2025 (and is not expected to receive one in 2026). Our CEO's sole equity award as an employee remains his 2023 new hire grant of PSUs tied to aggressive stock price goals. To date, our CEO has achieved two of the nine stock price goals. For the next goal to be achieved, we must sustain a $25 stock price (on average) for 90 consecutive calendar days prior to the end of the performance period. For all goals to be achieved, we must sustain an $80 stock price (on average) for 90 consecutive calendar days.

Additional information on the equity awards granted to our NEOs in 2025 can be found in the section titled "2025 Equity Awards to NEOs" on page <u>[38](#i29e783a6af0d4c9f9d939fefb09bf7d7_53903)</u> of this proxy statement.

| Lindsay Llewellyn | 12.2% | 8.5% | 6.6% | 72.7% |  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Mr. Risher received a PSU award upon his appointment to CEO in 2023, which is intended to be Mr. Risher's sole equity award for the initial four years of his employment. Therefore, Mr. Risher did not receive an annual equity award in 2025 and is not expected to receive any incremental equity awards until 2027 unless there are future unexpected changes in the Company's business or other unforeseen factors that the Board or compensation committee determine would make it in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant additional equity award(s) to him.

Note: Our NEOs are eligible for certain perquisites and other personal benefits. Such benefits are not considered a key element of our NEOs' compensation and therefore are not shown or included in the calculations in the table above. Additional discussion of perquisites and other personal benefits is set forth in "Executive Perquisites and Benefits" on page <u>[44](#i29e783a6af0d4c9f9d939fefb09bf7d7_53895)</u> of this proxy statement and in the "Summary Compensation Table" on page <u>[48](#ic163cd16e2f24740baf816d7307b7dbe_4095)</u> of this proxy statement.

**Determining Executive Compensation**

***Role of Board, Compensation Committee and its Advisors***

The compensation committee is responsible for recommending to the board of directors for approval the primary components of compensation for our NEOs. The compensation committee considers the scope and complexity of each executive's role and impact to our business, market data, individual performance as well as the recommendations from Mr. Risher (except with respect to his own compensation), and makes recommendations to the board of directors for approval. Individual performance evaluations are typically conducted in the fourth quarter of each year prior to setting the compensation for the following year, and for Mr. Risher specifically, the board of directors also assesses CEO performance across the Company's core values including leadership, customer experience, talent development, and ability to create an inclusive environment. The board of directors also considers feedback gathered in connection with a 360-performance review that takes into account alignment with our values. The board of directors considers the compensation committee's recommendations as well as these same factors considered by the compensation committee in approving compensation for the NEOs.

The compensation committee has the authority to engage its own advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. The compensation committee engaged Pay Governance, a leading independent compensation consulting firm to serve as its independent compensation consultant. Pay Governance provides consulting services to more than 10% of the S&P 500 and has been retained by the compensation committee since 2017. Pay Governance advises our compensation committee on general marketplace trends in executive compensation, makes or reviews proposals for executive compensation programs, recommends peer companies for inclusion in competitive market analyses of compensation and otherwise advises the compensation committee with regard to how our compensation practices compare with those of other companies. Pay Governance does not provide any services to Lyft other than as directed by the compensation committee. The compensation committee has assessed the independence of Pay Governance taking into account, among other things, the enhanced independence standards and factors set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the applicable listing standards of Nasdaq, and concluded that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the work that Pay Governance performs for the compensation committee and that Pay Governance satisfies the independence standards under Nasdaq.

***Role of Management***

Our Chief People Officer reviews our executive compensation practices against our peer companies and provides input to Mr. Risher on market levels of compensation. Based on his review of each executive's performance and input

------

from our Chief People Officer and Pay Governance, Mr. Risher provides the compensation committee and the board of directors with compensation recommendations for all of our NEOs other than himself.

**Comparative Market Data (Peer Group)**

In making its recommendation to the board of directors on compensation arrangements, for our NEOs, the compensation committee reviews market data for executive compensation using relevant published survey data as well as compensation data from the proxy statements of our peer group, discussed below. The market data elements that were reviewed included base salary, target bonus, target total cash (consisting of salary and target bonus), long term incentive value and total target compensation (consisting of salary, target bonus, and target long-term incentives).

Each year our compensation committee reviews, with assistance from Pay Governance and input from management, the then-current compensation peer group and selection criteria used for determining the peer group. While the compensation committee believes there is value in understanding market practices for similarly-sized public companies, the compensation committee also recognizes that we are a company with a transformative business model and that there are a limited number of directly comparable companies of similar size to Lyft. In addition, we compete in a highly-competitive talent market for executive, engineering and other key talent against both start-ups and larger, well-established technology companies. Based on our experience, we do not believe non-technology companies in industries like transportation and logistics are the appropriate comparables for our business. Given these factors, in reviewing our peer group, the compensation committee focused on U.S. publicly-traded technology companies based on the following targeted selection criteria:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Criteria** | **Detail** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Revenue | Approximately 33% to 300% of Lyft's revenue |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Market Capitalization | Approximately 25% to 400% of Lyft's market cap |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Headcount | 33% to 300% of Lyft's headcount |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Location | Preference for companies principally located in the San Francisco Bay Area |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Other | Preference for an appropriate balance of larger and smaller companies by market capitalization that positions Lyft, within the peer companies, generally at/close to the median for market capitalization |

---

Using the criteria described above, the compensation committee approved the following 25 companies as the peer group for fiscal 2025:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Affirm Holdings, Inc. | Dropbox, Inc. | RingCentral, Inc. | Viasat, Inc. |
| AppFolio, Inc. | Etsy, Inc. | Shutterstock, Inc. | Yelp Inc. |
| Asana, Inc. | Five9, Inc. | SoFi Technologies, Inc. | Zillow Group, Inc. |
| BILL Holdings, Inc.\* | GoDaddy Inc. | Squarespace, Inc. | ZipRecruiter, Inc.  |
| Box, Inc. | Guidewire Software, Inc. | Teladoc Health, Inc. |  |
| Carvana Co. | Nutanix, Inc. | Toast, Inc. |  |
| Compass, Inc. | Pure Storage, Inc. | Tripadvisor, Inc. |  |

---

**\***New peer company for fiscal 2025

For fiscal 2025 compensation decisions, the compensation committee revised the previous peer group to exclude Alteryx because it is no longer a publicly traded company. BILL Holdings, Inc. was added to the peer group, as it met the market capitalization and location criteria described above. At the time the fiscal 2025 peer group was approved in Q3 of 2024, Lyft's market capitalization was between the 40th and 50th percentiles and Lyft's revenue for the last four quarters was above the 90th percentile among the peer group companies.

------

For fiscal 2026 compensation decisions, the compensation committee revised the peer group to exclude three companies (Carvana, Inc., Shutterstock, Inc., and ZipRecruiter, Inc.) due to size considerations and one company (Squarespace, Inc.) because it is no longer a publicly-traded company. In addition, Maplebear Inc., and Shift4 Payments, Inc. were added to the peer group based on the selection criteria described above.

***Stockholder Advisory Vote***

Our board of directors has determined to hold an advisory vote on our executive compensation program on an annual basis. This provides our stockholders with an opportunity to provide feedback on our executive compensation program each year. After receiving approximately 72% support at our annual stockholder meeting in 2024 for our 2023 executive compensation program, at our annual stockholder meeting in 2025, we received approximately 94% support, based on the votes cast, for our 2024 executive compensation program. We believe that the strong support we received for our 2024 executive compensation program and the significant year over year increase indicates that stockholders generally support the changes we have made to our executive compensation program and therefore the compensation committee did not make material changes to our framework for 2025.

We continue to take opportunities to gain a more detailed understanding of our stockholders' views relating to executive compensation and to respond to any specific questions or concerns related to our program by meeting with our largest stockholders and engaging in conversations covering a broad range of topics, including our strategy, operations, governance, as well as executive and broader equity compensation. Since our last Say on Pay vote, we met with several of our largest stockholders and engaged in conversations covering a broad range of topics including our strategy, operations, governance, as well as executive and broader equity compensation.

**2025 Executive Compensation**

***Base Salary***

We use base salary to provide a fixed amount of cash compensation to our NEOs for their services. During fiscal 2025, none of our NEOs received a salary increase. For 2025, the annualized base salaries of all our NEOs was $650,000 per year, except Mr. Risher, who received $725,000.

***Annual Cash Incentive***

For fiscal year 2025, the compensation committee recommended, and the board of directors approved, an annual cash bonus for all NEOs based on performance goals consisting of Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA, each weighted 50%. These performance goals and related achievement levels were selected and designed to focus the NEOs on increasing Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA, in each case, as reported by the Company in its public reporting (with the required threshold, target and maximum levels, as shown in the table below), which the compensation committee and board of directors believe will increase stockholder value consistent with our overall growth strategy. The target bonus for Mr. Risher was set at 100% of his base salary. Mr. Risher also received an additional bonus opportunity equal to a target of $1,000,000, based on the same metrics and weightings. The incremental $1,000,000 cash bonus opportunity was provided to Mr. Risher to drive performance and accountability against the Company's Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA goals specific to fiscal year 2025. The target bonus for all other NEOs was set at 50% of the applicable NEO's base salary, with maximum bonus capped at 150%, with achievement with respect to each measure based on a straight-line linear interpolation between threshold and maximum.

For fiscal 2025, Mr. Risher received a performance bonus of $1,871,625 and Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn both received $352,625, which was 108.5% of their target bonus, based on performance as described below.

------

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Gross Bookings** <sup>(1)</sup> | **Adjusted EBITDA** <sup>(2)</sup> | **% Payout** |
|  | *($ in billions)* | *($ in millions)* |  |
| Threshold | $17.71 | $478 | 50% |
| Target | $18.62 | $502 | 100% |
| Maximum | $19.56 | $527 | 150% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Gross Bookings refers to the total dollar value of transactions including any applicable taxes, tolls and fees, for rides and other offerings provided by the Company, excluding tips to drivers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see the explanation of non-GAAP measures as well as the reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP measures contained in Appendix A under the sections titled "Supplemental Information About Financial Measures" and "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations."

Actual Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA performance, as reported by the Company in its public reporting, were $18.51 billion and $528.8 million, respectively. For the purposes of calculating the NEOs' annual cash incentive payout percentage of 108.5%, the Gross Booking actual performance value was adjusted to exclude Gross Bookings related to Freenow and TBR Global Chauffeuring ("TBR") because these acquisitions occurred during the course of 2025 and the performance goal targets established under the annual incentive plan were based on organic Gross Bookings. The compensation committee determined to adjust the Gross Bookings actual performance value to exclude results from Freenow and TBR to more accurately reflect the Company's organic business growth in 2025 without the impact of acquisition-related growth. This had the effect of reducing the overall payout percentage under the annual cash incentive plan. The compensation committee determined to not adjust the Adjusted EBITDA actual performance value to exclude results from Freenow and TBR, since any such adjustments would have had no impact on the Company's achievement of the maximum threshold for the Adjusted EBITDA metric.

***Other Cash Bonus Arrangements During 2025***

During 2025, Ms. Llewellyn received a $250,000 payment which represented the second and final installment of the $500,000 retention bonus she was awarded in connection with her promotion to Chief Legal Officer in 2024.

Ms. Llewellyn also received a cash bonus payment of $200,000 during 2025 in recognition of her service as our interim Chief People Officer from November 2024 through July of 2025.

***2025 Equity Awards to NEOs (excluding CEO)***

We have historically used equity compensation as our primary element of compensation and to differentiate compensation levels among our NEOs. We believe that emphasizing equity compensation for our NEOs encourages them to have a long-term focus since the value of their equity compensation depends on the performance of our stock over multiple years. The size of equity awards is determined by the compensation committee and board of directors after consideration of market data as described further above in "Comparative Market Data (Peer Group)," input from our CEO as well as the scope of responsibilities of each NEO and their impact on our business. In addition, the compensation committee considers the impact of the equity awards on our overall equity award budget and associated stock-based compensation expense.

In 2025, our CEO did not receive an equity award. The only equity award he has received as an employee was granted in 2023 in connection with his hiring and is described in the section "2023 CEO PSU" below. For our other NEOs, we continued to use a combination of 50% time-based RSUs and 50% PSUs (based on target value).

The time-based RSUs granted in connection with our 2025 annual equity award program vest based on the NEO's continued employment in twelve equal installments over a three-year period in accordance with the Company's standard quarterly vesting schedule. RSU awards are subject to the terms of our 2019 Plan and an applicable award agreement thereunder.

The PSUs granted in connection with our 2025 equity award program become eligible to vest upon the attainment of goals for our stock price within defined performance periods, plus a further requirement of continued service through

------

the later of goal attainment and the first eligible vesting date. The PSUs are divided into four tranches, each with its own performance period, performance condition and minimum vesting period. Each tranche is eligible to vest based on the achievement of a stock price goal over a consecutive 90 calendar day period during the performance periods applicable to the tranche, as set forth in the table below. The approach of using stock price as the performance criteria was selected based on a desire to further strengthen the alignment between pay and performance for our NEOs and to promote alignment between the compensation program of our CEO and our other NEOs. To earn 100% of the PSUs would require our stock price to appreciate by approximately 75% from the starting price of $13.53, which was the trailing 20-trading day average closing stock price prior to January 24, 2025.

In addition to the stock price goals, the PSUs also require continued service through the later of the first eligible vesting date, as shown in the table below, and the date the compensation committee certifies the attainment of the applicable performance condition. The first eligible vesting date is tied to the number of years after the grant date of the PSU award and represents the date the NEO will need to be employed in order to receive the vested award, if the performance conditions have been met for each designated performance period. This feature was included to ensure that even if all of the stock price goals are achieved early in the performance period, these PSUs still will continue to provide four years of retention and stockholder alignment.

The following table shows a summary of the performance-related terms for each tranche of the PSUs, including the applicable performance period and stock price goal. 25% of the PSUs were eligible to be earned based on attainment of each of the four stock price goals. The stock prices were determined using a 15% year-over-year increase from a stock price equal to the trailing 20-trading day average closing price prior to January 24, 2025.

If the average closing price of the Company's Class A common stock fails to reach the stock price goal for a particular tranche of the PSUs over a consecutive 90 calendar day period during the designated performance period, or if the participant terminates service to the Company before achieving a performance condition, or terminates service prior to the first eligible vesting date, no portion of that tranche will vest (except in the limited circumstances described below for a qualifying termination of employment within three months prior to a Change in Control (as defined in our 2019 Plan)).

The stock price goals and number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock underlying the PSUs will be adjusted to reflect any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reorganizations, reclassifications, or similar events under our 2019 Plan. PSU awards are subject to the terms of our 2019 Plan and an applicable award agreement thereunder. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The stock price target of $15.56 for the first tranche was achieved during the third quarter of 2025. The stock price target of $17.89 for the second tranche and $20.57 for the third tranche were achieved during the fourth quarter of 2025. The last tranche was not achieved through the end of 2025. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The following table shows the grant date fair values of equity awards granted to our NEOs in 2025. The values our NEOs may realize from these awards depend on our stock price as these awards vest and settle (or after forfeited, as applicable) over the vesting period, and may be different than the values shown below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Amounts reported represent the grant date fair value of the equity awards calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718 considering any valuation assumptions discussed in Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Stock-Based Compensation" and Note 12 "Common Stock and Employee Stock Plans" in the footnotes of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The grant date fair value was calculated based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant or, if the grant date was not a trading day, the closing price on the last market trading day prior to the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The grant date fair value of these equity awards ranges from $11.34 to $12.07 per share, which was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, incorporating the following assumptions: (i) risk-free interest rate of 4.21% based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant date; (ii) cost of equity of 15.72% derived from the modified capital asset pricing model; (iii) expected dividend yield of 0% and (iv) expected volatility of 66.5%, based on the historical volatility of our Class A Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)Mr. Risher received a PSU award upon his appointment to CEO in 2023, which is intended to be Mr. Risher's sole equity award for the initial four years of his employment. Therefore, Mr. Risher did not receive an annual equity award in 2024 or 2025 and is not expected to receive any incremental equity awards until 2027, unless there are future unexpected changes in the Company's business or other unforeseen factors that the Board or compensation committee determine would make it in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant additional equity award(s) to him.

***2023 CEO PSU***

Mr. Risher received an award of PSUs in 2023 in connection with his initial employment and did not receive an annual equity award in 2024 or 2025 and is not expected to receive a grant in 2026.

The PSUs granted to Mr. Risher in 2023 cover a total of up to 12,250,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock. The PSUs become eligible to vest upon the attainment of nine stock price targets over a five-year performance period beginning on April 17, 2023. As shown in the table below, the stock price targets require significant increases from the base price of $10.00 per share. The base price reflects the average of the closing price of our Class A common stock over the consecutive 30-trading day period up to and including March 24, 2023 (the last trading day before the grant approval date).

The following table shows a summary of each tranche, including the number of PSUs eligible to vest per tranche and the applicable stock price target.

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Tranche** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Company Stock Target Price** | **Percentage Price Increase over Base Price** | **PSUs Eligible to Vest** |

| ***Total*** |  |  | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***12250000*** |

---

The stock price target of $15.00 for the first tranche was achieved during the second quarter of 2024. The stock price of $20.00 for the second tranche was achieved during the fourth quarter of 2025. None of the other tranches were achieved through the end of 2025.

Other important features of the PSU award include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **100% performance-based:** no portion of the award is eligible to be earned based on continued service alone.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Sustained stock price requirement**: to earn the shares tied to each tranche, the average of our stock price over 90 consecutive calendar days must be at least at or above the applicable goal. This requires that the stock price growth is sustained for a meaningful period in order for the performance goal to be considered met and shares to become eligible to vest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Additional time-based vesting after a goal is attained**: once achievement of a stock price target has been certified by the compensation committee, 50% of the PSUs in the applicable tranche will vest. Subject to continued service, the remaining 50% will vest on the one year anniversary of such certification. The PSUs are subject to Mr. Risher's continued service as our CEO with us through the applicable vesting dates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **No additional awards during initial employment term**: the compensation committee intends for this award to be the only equity award Mr. Risher receives during the first four years of his tenure as our CEO.

In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in our 2019 Plan and as described under the section titled "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" on page <u>[52](#i0ef2d3ee34624d63b9bdf80b4ba347ad_15745)</u> of this proxy statement) of the Company before the end of the performance period, the price in the Change in Control will be used to measure attainment of the stock price targets shown above. For the single tranche (if any) that has a stock price target that is immediately above the Change in Control price (and to the extent not previously achieved), linear interpolation will be used to provide prorated vesting of that tranche. Immediately prior to the closing of the Change in Control, all PSUs earned based on the Change in Control price will vest and any unearned PSUs will be forfeited.

In the event of termination of Mr. Risher's employment for any reason, any portion of the award for which the applicable stock price target has not been achieved generally will be forfeited. If Mr. Risher experiences an involuntary termination of employment by the Company without "cause" (and not due to his death or disability), or if Mr. Risher resigns with "good reason", any unearned PSUs will remain outstanding and eligible to vest if one of the stock price targets is achieved (for the requisite 90 calendar day period) within two months after the date of his termination.

Mr. Risher's award is also subject to our Clawback Policy, as amended on October 2, 2023, as it may be further amended from time to time in order to comply with the requirements of applicable law or the rules of the stock exchange upon which the Company's Class A common stock is listed.

The CEO Employment Letter also provides that Mr. Risher will be eligible to participate in the Company's Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan (or "Executive Severance Plan"). For additional details on payments that may be due to Mr. Risher in certain termination scenarios, see "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" beginning on page <u>[52](#i0ef2d3ee34624d63b9bdf80b4ba347ad_15745)</u> of this proxy statement.

**Prior Non-CEO NEO PSUs** 

***2024 PSUs***

In 2024, our Non-CEO NEOs, Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn, received PSUs covering 101,133 shares and 238,178 shares, respectively, under our 2024 equity award program.

The PSUs granted in connection with our 2024 equity award program become eligible to vest upon the attainment of goals for our stock price within defined performance periods, plus a further requirement of continued service through the eligible vesting date. The PSUs are divided into four tranches, each with its own performance period, performance condition and minimum vesting period. Each tranche is eligible to vest based on the achievement of a stock price goal over a consecutive 90 calendar day period during the performance periods applicable to the tranche, as set forth in the table below. The approach of using stock price as the performance criteria was selected based on a desire to further strengthen the alignment between pay and performance for our NEOs and to promote alignment between the compensation program of our CEO and our other NEOs. To earn 100% of the PSUs would require our stock price to appreciate by approximately 75% from the starting price of $17.03, which was the 20-day average closing stock price starting on February 16, 2024.

The following table shows a summary of the performance-related terms for each tranche of the PSUs, including performance period and stock price goal. 25% of the PSUs were eligible to be earned based on attainment of each of the

------

four stock price goals. The stock prices were determined using a 15% year-over-year increase from a stock price equal to the 20-day average closing stock price starting from February 16, 2024. In addition to the stock price goals, the PSUs also require continued service through the later of the first eligible vesting date, as shown in the table below, and the date the compensation committee certifies the attainment of the applicable performance condition.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Tranche** | **Performance Period (measured from the date of grant)** | **Performance Condition (Price per Share)** | **First Eligible Vesting Date** |
| 1 | Two years | $19.58 | 4/20/2025 |
| 2 | Three years | $22.52 | 4/20/2026 |
| 3 | Four years | $25.90 | 4/20/2027 |
| 4 | Four years | $29.79 | 4/20/2028 |

---

The stock price target of $19.58 for the first tranche was achieved during the fourth quarter of 2025. The other three remaining tranches have not been achieved through the end of 2025.

In 2023, upon her appointment as our Chief Financial Officer, Ms. Brewer received PSUs covering 909,091 shares. The PSUs become eligible to vest upon the attainment of goals for our stock price within defined performance periods, plus a further requirement of continued service through the eligible vesting date. The PSU award is divided into four tranches, each with its own performance period, performance condition and minimum vesting period. 25% of the PSUs were eligible to be earned based on attainment of each of the four stock price goals over a consecutive 90 calendar day period during the applicable performance period. In addition to the stock price goals, the PSUs also require continued service through the later of the first eligible vesting date, and the date the compensation committee certifies the attainment of the applicable performance condition. To earn 100% of the PSUs would require our stock price to appreciate by approximately 100% from the date of grant.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Tranche** | **Performance Period (measured from the date of grant)** | **% of PSUs** | **Performance Condition (Price per Share)** |
| 1 | Two years | 25% | $12.50 |
| 2 | Three years | 25% | $15.00 |
| 3 | Four years | 25% | $17.50 |
| 4 | Four years | 25% | $20.00 |

---

The stock price target of $20.00 for the fourth tranche was achieved during the fourth quarter of 2025. The stock price targets of $12.50 for the first tranche, $15.00 for the second tranche and $17.50 for the third tranche were achieved during 2024.

**2026 Compensation Decisions**

In January 2026, the compensation committee and board of directors conducted their annual executive compensation review and made fiscal 2026 compensation decisions for our continuing NEOs as set forth below. In making these decisions, the compensation committee and board of directors considered a competitive analysis of market data of our compensation peer group, the performance of the Company in 2025 and the Company's 2026 operating and financial goals as well as the other factors described in "Role of Board, Compensation Committee and its Advisors" above. Highlights of our fiscal 2026 NEO compensation program include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintained base salaries of NEOs.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 2026 equity awards for our non-CEO NEOs will be composed of 50% PSUs, with 25% of the shares subject to such PSUs vesting upon the achievement of each of four specified stock price targets, and 50% RSUs that vest quarterly over a three-year period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• No additional equity awards for our CEO.

***Annual Cash Incentive***

For fiscal year 2026, the compensation committee recommended, and the board of directors approved, an annual cash bonus for all NEOs based on performance goals consisting of Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA, each weighted 50%. These performance target levels were selected and designed to continue to focus the NEOs on increasing Gross Bookings and Adjusted EBITDA, in each case, as reported by the Company in its public reporting, which the compensation committee and board of directors believe will increase stockholder value consistent with our overall growth strategy. The target bonus has been set at 100% of Mr. Risher's base salary, and 50% for all other NEOs' base salary, with maximum achievement at 150%, with achievement with respect to each measure based on a straight line linear interpolation between threshold and maximum.

***2026 Equity Awards to Continuing NEOs***

In February 2026, we continued to use a combination of time-based RSUs and PSUs for our NEOs (other than our CEO) and continued the emphasis on performance-based equity. For NEOs who received annual equity awards in fiscal 2026, the percentage of PSUs remained at 50% of each NEO's target annual equity value. PSU awards are subject to the terms of our 2019 Plan and an applicable award agreement thereunder.

The RSUs granted in connection with our 2026 annual equity award program vest based on the NEO's continued employment in twelve equal installments over a three-year period in accordance with the Company's standard quarterly vesting schedule.

The PSUs granted in connection with our 2026 equity award program continue to be 100% performance-based. The PSUs become eligible to vest upon the attainment of goals for our stock price within defined performance periods, plus a further requirement of continued service through the eligible vesting date. The PSUs are divided into four tranches, each with its own performance period, performance condition and minimum vesting period. Each tranche is eligible to vest based on the achievement of a stock price goal over a consecutive 90 calendar day period during the performance periods set forth below. To earn 100% of the PSUs would require our stock price to appreciate by approximately 75% from the starting price of $18.37, which is the 20-day trailing average closing stock price prior to February 4, 2026.

The following table shows a summary of each tranche and the applicable stock price goal. For our NEOs who received PSUs in connection with our 2026 equity award program, 25% of their PSUs are eligible to be earned based on attainment of each of the four stock price goals. The stock prices below were determined using a 15% year-over-year increase from a stock price equal to the 20-day trailing average closing stock price prior to February 4, 2026. In addition to the stock price goals, the PSUs also require continued service through the later of the first eligible vesting date and the date the compensation committee certifies the attainment of the applicable performance condition.

**Other Compensation Information**

***Executive Perquisites and Benefits***

We do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. We generally do not provide perquisites or other personal benefits to our NEOs, except in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties or to address bona fide safety and security concerns. Consistent with this philosophy, the general health, wellness, and retirement benefits provided to our NEOs are consistent with those provided to other full-time, salaried employees. Our NEOs also are eligible to participate in our employee stock purchase plan on the same terms as our other eligible employees.

Pursuant to the terms of the CEO Employment Letter, we engaged a third-party consulting firm to perform an assessment of security risks to our CEO. As a result of this assessment, in 2025, we paid for costs related to personal security and maintaining a security program for Mr. Risher. We consider these security arrangements to be reasonable and necessary for our CEO's protection, and they are for the Company's benefit. While we do not view these security arrangements as personal benefits, the amount paid by the Company in 2025 in relation to the security program for Mr. Risher, as determined under SEC rules, is set forth in the "Summary Compensation Table" on page <u>[48](#ic163cd16e2f24740baf816d7307b7dbe_4095)</u> of this proxy statement.

***Succession Planning***

One of the most critical roles of our board of directors is to oversee annual succession planning, executive compensation, and leadership development. The compensation committee periodically reviews and discusses with the board of directors and, as the compensation committee deems appropriate, the nominating and corporate governance committee, corporate succession plans for our executive officers. As part of this process, plans for the development, retention, and, if necessary, replacement of our Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers are conducted. Successors for key roles in our organization are identified based on our core values, role-related skills, individual performance, and potential. In connection with the process, we also take note of any talent gaps and formulate individualized plans to support ongoing leadership development.

***Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines***

We maintain stock ownership guidelines establishing a minimum share ownership requirement for our CEO and other executive officers. The stock ownership guidelines provide that our CEO must hold shares of our common stock with a value equal to five times their annual base salary and other executive officers must hold shares of our common stock with a value equal to three times their annual base salary. Our executive officers generally have until five years after the date they are hired or become subject to the guidelines to comply with the minimum stock ownership requirement. Ownership is defined as shares or equivalents owned outright. Unvested RSUs and options for shares of our common stock whether or not vested are not considered owned for this purpose. Compliance is measured annually at the end of our fiscal year (December 31st) based on year-end stock price and then reviewed by the compensation committee in the first regularly scheduled compensation committee meeting of the subsequent year. Once a covered executive has satisfied the guidelines as of an annual review (such date, the "measurement date"), the executive will be deemed to have continued to satisfy the guidelines regardless of subsequent stock price declines, as long as the executive continues to own as of the last day of each future fiscal year the number of shares required to meet the guideline as of the measurement date.

As of December 31, 2025, all of our executive officers have either achieved the requisite ownership threshold or are within the five-year grace period.

***Insider Trading Policy; Hedging and Pledging Policy***

As described above, our board of directors has adopted an Insider Trading Policy in order to take an active role in the prevention of insider trading violations by our executive officers, non-employee directors, employees and other related individuals. In addition to forbidding the trading of securities (of Lyft or otherwise) based on material nonpublic information, the Insider Trading Policy strictly prohibits hedging or pledging of Lyft securities, as well as engaging in any other derivative securities transaction, using Lyft securities as collateral for loans, and holding Lyft securities in margin

------

accounts. We believe the Insider Trading Policy is aligned with current market governance best practices and will continue to monitor industry trends on an ongoing basis.

***Clawback Policy***

We maintain an Executive Compensation Clawback Policy applicable to our current and former executive officers. Our board of directors amended and restated our Clawback Policy, effective as of October 2, 2023. Our Clawback Policy provides that, in the event that our financial statements filed with the SEC are subject to a material negative restatement less than three years after the original filing date of such financial statements upon which an executive officer's incentive compensation was calculated or determined, then we have the right to recover from such executive officer (and/or to cancel, without payment of any consideration whatsoever, to the extent not yet paid or delivered) an amount corresponding to any performance-based compensation (including any cash bonus or equity-based award), which will be the amount that we determine would not have been granted, vested or paid had our financial results as originally reported been equal to our financial results as subsequently restated.

***Post-Termination Compensation***

Upon recommendation of our compensation committee, our board of directors has adopted the Executive Severance Plan to provide standardized payments and benefits to the NEOs in the event of certain qualifying terminations, including an involuntary termination of employment without "cause" or a termination with "good reason". Our Executive Severance Plan does not provide for benefits in the event of a termination for cause, due to death or disability, or for a voluntary termination without good reason. This Executive Severance Plan was developed with input from Pay Governance regarding severance practices at comparable companies and requires a "double-trigger" for the acceleration of any equity awards in connection with a qualifying change in control. We believe that these provisions support our retention objectives by helping our NEOs and other key employees maintain continued focus and dedication to their responsibilities to maximize stockholder value and maintain executive focus regardless of a potential or actual change in control event.

The 2023 PSU award granted to Mr. Risher contains the following special terms in connection with a qualifying termination:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In the event of Mr. Risher's involuntary termination and provided that Mr. Risher satisfies the requirements for receiving severance under the Executive Severance Plan, then to the extent any stock price goal applicable to a tranche is achieved within the two-month period following such involuntary termination, the tranche will vest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In the event of a change in control of the Company before the end of the performance period, the performance period will be shortened and one or more tranches of the PSU award may become eligible to vest if the price in the Change in Control satisfies the applicable stock price target for such tranche not yet achieved under the award. For the single tranche (if any) that has a stock price target that is immediately above the change in control price (to the extent not previously achieved), linear interpolation will be used to prorate the portion of that tranche that becomes eligible to vest. Any portion of the award described in the immediately preceding two sentences or for which the applicable stock price target previously has been achieved (as certified by the compensation committee), would be eligible for accelerated vesting in connection with a qualifying termination as provided under the Executive Severance Plan (as described further below under "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control"). Accordingly, if a qualifying termination occurs within 3 months prior to the change in control, then provided Mr. Risher satisfies the requirement for receiving severance under the Executive Severance Plan, as of immediately prior to the closing of the change in control, any portion of the PSU award that is earned based on the change in control price and any portion of the PSU award previously earned but not yet vested will vest. Any remaining unearned portion will be forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An involuntary termination without achievement of the applicable stock price target does not entitle Mr. Risher to vesting under his 2023 PSU award.

We maintain a Death/Disability Benefit Policy that provides each of our eligible employees, including our NEOs (or their estates, as applicable), certain company-paid health care premiums and accelerated vesting of their time-based

------

equity awards (with the aggregate value of accelerated vesting not to exceed $10 million), upon such employee's death or "disability" subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.

We also believe that these protections serve our retention objectives by helping our NEOs and other key employees maintain continued focus and dedication to their responsibilities to maximize stockholder value, including in the event of a transaction that could result in a change in control of the Company. For more information, see the section titled "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" beginning on page <u>[52](#i0ef2d3ee34624d63b9bdf80b4ba347ad_15745)</u> of this proxy statement.

***Deductibility of Executive Compensation***

Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits the amount we may deduct from our federal income taxes for compensation paid to our CEO and certain current and former officers within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code to $1 million per individual per year.

Generally, we have not previously taken the deductibility limit imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code into consideration in setting compensation and do not currently have any immediate plans to do so. We may, in our judgment, authorize compensation payments that are not fully tax deductible when we believe that such payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent or meet other business objectives.

***Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation***

We follow the Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 ("FASB ASC Topic 718") for our stock-based compensation awards. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires us to measure the compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to our employees and members of our board of directors, including RSUs covering our equity securities and other stock awards, based on the grant date fair value of these awards. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the executive compensation tables required by the federal securities laws, even though the recipient of the awards may never realize any value from their awards.

***Equity Award Granting Practice***

We have not granted stock options or other similar types of awards as part of our equity compensation programs since prior to 2017. RSUs, PSUs or other types of equity awards that we grant to directors, officers and employees do not include an exercise price.

**Risk Considerations**

The compensation committee, in cooperation with its independent compensation consultant and our management team, reviewed our 2025 compensation programs. The compensation committee believes that the mix and design of the elements of such programs do not encourage our employees to assume excessive risks and accordingly are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. We have designed our compensation programs to be balanced so that our employees are focused on both short and long-term financial and operational performance. Goals are appropriately set with targets that encourage growth in the business, while doing so in a manner that encourages profitability and long-term stockholder value creation.

**COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT**

The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis provided above. Based on such review and discussion, the compensation committee has recommended to the board of directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the compensation committee of the board of directors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)For Ms. Llewellyn, the 2025 amount reflects the second half of a $500,000 retention bonus paid within thirty (30) days of her effective date in connection with her promotion to Chief Legal Officer in 2024 as well as a one time cash bonus of $200,000 in connection with her interim service as Chief People Officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs and PSUs calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value of the RSUs was calculated based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant or, if the grant date was not a trading day, the closing price on the last market trading day prior to the date of grant, and does not take into account any estimated forfeitures related to time-based vesting conditions. Such grant date fair values of the PSUs granted in each of 2025, 2024 and 2023 were calculated based on fair values ranging from $5.99 to $16.09 per share, which was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Monte Carlo simulation included various assumptions in estimating the fair value of stock-based awards such as the stock price volatility and risk-free interest rate as of the valuation date corresponding to the length of time remaining in the performance period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Mr. Risher received a PSU award upon his appointment to CEO in 2023, which is intended to be Mr. Risher's sole equity award for the initial four years of his employment. Therefore, Mr. Risher did not receive an annual equity award in 2025 and is not expected to receive any incremental equity awards until 2027.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)The 2025 amount reflects a performance-based annual cash incentive bonus earned for 2025 performance. Please see "Annual Cash Incentive" in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section of this proxy statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5)For Mr. Risher, the 2025 amount includes $221,646 in personal security services, $3,140 in taxable meals, $2,437 in tax gross-ups, and $240 in life insurance premiums. For Ms. Brewer, the 2025 amount includes $6,335 in personal security services, $2,380 in taxable meals, $120 in Lyft passes, $77 in 401(k) match, $1,999 in tax gross-ups, and $240 in life insurance premiums. For Ms. Llewellyn, the 2025 amount includes $6,335 in personal security, $2,120 in taxable meals, $370 in Lyft passes, $385 in 401(k) match, $1,591 in tax gross-ups, and $240 in life insurance premiums.

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Each of the equity awards was granted pursuant to our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)RSUs will vest upon the satisfaction of a time-based condition before the award expiration date. Each of Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn's PSUs become eligible to vest upon the attainment of goals for our stock price and are divided into four tranches, each with its own performance period and performance condition, and vesting additionally is subject to their continued service with us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The number of units for the RSUs were determined by taking 50% of Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn's total equity target value for 2025 and using the 20-day trailing average stock price prior to January 24, 2025, to convert such portion of the target value into units. The RSUs had a fair value per unit of $13.53.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)The number of units for the PSUs were determined by taking 50% of Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn's total equity target value for 2025 and using an average grant date fair value per unit of $10.43, which was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, to convert such portion of the target value into units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5)Amounts reported represent the grant date fair value of the equity awards calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value of the RSUs was calculated based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant or, if the grant date was not a trading day, the closing price on the last market trading day prior to the date of grant, and does not take into account any estimated forfeitures related to time-based vesting conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6)Amounts reported represent the grant date fair value of the equity awards calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value of the PSUs ranged from $11.34 to $12.07 per share, which was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, incorporating the following assumptions: (i) risk-free interest rate of 4.21% based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant date; (ii) cost of equity of 15.72% derived from the modified capital asset pricing model; (iii) expected dividend yield of 0% and (iv) expected volatility of 66.5%, based on the historical volatility of our Class A Common Stock.

**Option Exercises and Stock Vested in 2025**

The following table sets forth information regarding options exercised and stock awards vested for the NEOs during the year ended December 31, 2025:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Option Awards** | **Option Awards** | **Stock Awards** | **Stock Awards** |
|<br>**Name** | **Number of Shares Acquired on Exercise (#)** | **Value Realized on Exercise ($)**<sup>(1)</sup> | **Number of Shares Acquired on Vesting (#)** | **Value Realized on Vesting ($)**<sup>(2)</sup> |
| David Risher |  |  | 1225000 | 18730250 |
| Erin Brewer |  |  | 680320 | 11055310 |
| Lindsay Llewellyn |  |  | 322690 | 5491363 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The value realized upon exercise of stock options is calculated by subtracting the stock option exercise price from the fair market value on the exercise date, and multiplying the difference by the number of shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The value realized upon vesting of RSUs and PSUs is calculated by multiplying the number of shares vested by the closing price of our Class A common stock on the vesting date (or, in the event the vesting date occurs on a holiday or weekend, the closing price of our Class A common stock on the immediately preceding trading day).

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control**

***Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan***

We maintain an Executive Severance Plan pursuant to which our NEOs and certain other key employees are eligible to receive severance benefits, as specified in and subject to the employee signing a participation agreement under our Executive Severance Plan.

All of our NEOs signed a participation agreement under our Executive Severance Plan providing for the rights to the applicable payments and benefits described below.

In the event of an "involuntary termination" of the employment of an NEO, which generally includes a termination of employment by the NEO for "good reason" or by us for a reason other than "cause," death or "disability" (as such terms are defined in our Executive Severance Plan), that occurs outside the change in control period (as described below), then the NEO will be entitled to the following payments and benefits:

------

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Item** | **CEO** | **All other NEOs** |
| Cash Severance and<br>Benefits (lump sum) | • Salary: 1.0x (12 months)<br>• Bonus: 1.0x target for termination year and any earned but unpaid bonus for the prior year<br>• Benefits: 12 months company-paid COBRA | • Salary: 1.0x (12 months)<br>• Bonus: Prorated for termination year<br>• Benefits: 12 months company-paid COBRA |
| Treatment of Unvested Equity  | • Time-based equity: 12 months of acceleration of unvested equity, including performance-based awards for which the performance goals have been achieved<br>• Performance-based equity: None, other than (1) as immediately above, and (2) if the performance goals are achieved within 2 months after termination, will (x) receive credit for achievement (including by applying the 12 months of acceleration applicable to time-based equity), or (y) in the case of the PSU award granted to the CEO in 2023, will vest in such portion of the award | • Time-based equity: 6 months acceleration of unvested equity, including performance-based awards for which the performance goals were achieved prior to termination<br>• Performance-based equity: None, other than as immediately above |

---

If such involuntary termination occurs within a period beginning three months prior to and ending 12 months following a "change in control" (as defined in our Executive Severance Plan) (such period, the "change in control period"), then the NEO will be entitled to the following payments and benefits:

------

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Item** | **CEO** | **All other NEOs** |
| Cash Severance and<br>Benefits (lump sum) | • Salary: 1.5x (18 months)<br>• Bonus: 1.5x target for termination year and any earned but unpaid bonus for prior year<br>• Benefits: 18 months company-paid COBRA | • Salary: 1.0x (12 months)<br>• Bonus: Prorated for termination year<br>• Benefits: 12 months company-paid COBRA |
| Treatment of<br>Unvested Equity | • Time-based equity: 100% acceleration of unvested equity, including performance-based awards for which the performance goals have been achieved<br>• Performance-based equity: a pro rata portion of performance-based awards (other than the PSU award granted to the CEO in 2023) for which performance goals have not yet been achieved will vest based on actual achievement, and for the PSU award granted to the CEO in 2023 only, in addition to any vesting for performance goals achieved within 2 months of termination (as described further above), if the termination occurs within the 3 months prior to the change in control and the change in control occurs during the performance period, he will vest in any portion of the award that becomes earned as a result of the change in control price satisfying a stock price target  | • Time-based equity: 100% acceleration of unvested equity<br>• Performance-based equity: 100% acceleration at target |

---

Each of the salary, bonus and COBRA benefits payments described above will be made in lump sum. The receipt of the payments and benefits provided for under the Executive Severance Plan described above is conditioned on the NEO signing and not revoking a separation and release of claims agreement and such release becoming effective and irrevocable no later than the 60th day following the NEO's involuntary termination of employment, as well as compliance with certain non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions during the period that is 12 months following the NEO's termination of employment and continued compliance with the invention assignment and confidentiality agreement applicable to the NEO.

If any of the payments or benefits provided for under the Executive Severance Plan or otherwise payable to the NEO would constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, the NEO will receive either full payment of such payments and benefits or such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payments and benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to them. The Executive Severance Plan does not require us to provide any tax gross-up payments to the NEOs.

The 2023 PSU award granted to Mr. Risher contains the special terms as described in the section titled "Other Compensation Information - Post-Termination Compensation" on page <u>[45](#i29e783a6af0d4c9f9d939fefb09bf7d7_53900)</u> of this proxy statement. The PSU awards

------

granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025 to Mses. Brewer and Llewellyn contain special terms if a change in control occurs during the performance period. In the event of a change in control of the Company before the end of the performance period, the performance period will be shortened and one or more tranches of the PSU award may become eligible to vest if the price in the Change in Control satisfies the applicable stock price target for such tranche not yet achieved under the award. For the single tranche (if any) that has a stock price target that is immediately above the change in control price (to the extent not previously achieved), linear interpolation will be used to prorate the portion of that tranche that becomes eligible to vest.

As discussed further above, during 2025, Ms. Llewellyn received a $250,000 payment which represented the second and final installment of the $500,000 retention bonus she was awarded in connection with her promotion to Chief Legal Officer in 2024. Ms. Llewellyn's offer letter provided that, had her employment had been terminated without cause (as defined in the Executive Severance Plan) prior to such payment, then subject to her satisfying the requirements for receiving severance under the Executive Severance Plan, Ms. Llewellyn would have received such unpaid portion of her retention bonus.

Under the Executive Severance Plan, "cause" generally means (a) any willful, material violation of any law or regulation applicable to our business; (b) conviction for, or plea of no contest to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (c) commission of an act of personal dishonesty that is intended to result in the substantial personal enrichment of the NEO; (d) a continued material failure to perform the NEO's lawful and reasonable duties of employment, which violations are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the NEO's part (but only following a 15 day notice and cure period); (e) willful failure to reasonably cooperate with any audit or investigation by a governmental authority or by us of our business or financial conditions or practices that continues after written notice from the board and at least 15 days to cure; (f) any other willful misconduct or gross negligence that is materially injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of the Company; (g) a material breach of any of the NEO's fiduciary duties to the Company; (h) an NEO's failure to reasonably cooperate in any audit or investigation of the business or financial practices of the Company; or (i) the NEO substantially abusing alcohol, drugs, or similar substances, or engaging in other conduct or activities which are reasonably likely to result in a demonstrably injurious effect on the Company's reputation or business or the NEO's ability to perform the NEO's duties.

Under the Executive Severance Plan, "change in control" generally means (i) a change in the ownership of the Company that occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group ("Person") acquires ownership of the stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company (subject to certain exceptions described in the Executive Severance Plan); (ii) a change in the effective control of the Company which occurs on the date that a majority of members of the board is replaced during any 12-month period with individuals whose appointment or election to the board is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the board prior to the date of the appointment or election; or (iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions.

Under the Executive Severance Plan, "disability" generally has the meaning in the Company's long-term disability plan or policy then in effect with respect to the NEO, as such plan or policy may be in effect from time to time, and, if there is no such plan or policy, a total and permanent disability as defined in Code Section 22(e)(3).

Under the Executive Severance Plan, "good reason" generally means (a) (A) outside of a change in control period, the assignment to the NEO of any duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with the NEO's education and professional experience, and (B) during a change in control period, the assignment to the NEO of any authority, duties or responsibilities or the reduction of the NEO's authority, duties or responsibilities, either of which results in a material diminution in the NEO's authority, duties or responsibilities at Lyft as in effect immediately prior to the change in control period, unless the NEO is provided with a comparable position; (b) a material reduction in the NEO's annual base salary (or, following a change in control, annual base salary or target annual bonus) other than a one-time reduction of 15% or less that is applicable to substantially all other similarly-situated executives; (c) during a change in control period, a non-

------

temporary relocation of the NEO's principal work location office to a location that increases the NEO's one way commute from the NEO's principal residence by more than 50 miles as compared to the principal location at which the NEO performs duties as of immediately prior to the beginning of the change in control period; or (d) a material breach by Lyft of any material written agreement with the NEO.

An event or action will not constitute Good Reason unless (1) the NEO gives the Company written notice within 60 days after the NEO knows or should know of the initial existence of such event or action, (2) such event or action is not reversed, remedied or cured, as the case may be, by the Company as soon as possible but in no event later than 30 days of receiving such written notice from the NEO, and (3) the NEO terminates employment within 60 days following the end of the cure period.

***Death/Disability Benefits Policy***

Under our Death/Disability Benefit Policy, our employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to receive certain health care premium payments and equity vesting acceleration benefits following an employee's termination of employment due to that employee's death or "disability" (as defined therein) (in either case, a "Qualifying Termination"). Upon an employee's Qualifying Termination, the employee will be entitled to the following benefits, subject to the employee's timely execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in a form provided by us:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Up to 24 months of COBRA premium payment for continued group health plan coverage for the employee and any spouse and/or eligible dependents of the employee ("Family Members"), if the employee, and/or that employee's Family Members has or have coverage under a group health plan sponsored by us on the date of the employee's Qualifying Termination and also validly elect and remain eligible to continue coverage under COBRA; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 24 months accelerated vesting of each of such employee's then-outstanding equity awards that vest based solely on the satisfaction of time-based vesting conditions (including equity awards that became subject to only time-based vesting conditions following the achievement of one or more performance goals). However, the aggregate value of the equity awards that may vest, and if applicable, become fully exercisable under this Policy may not exceed $10 million.

With respect to the PSU awards granted in 2025, 2024 and 2023 to NEOs, any portion of the award for which the applicable stock price target already has been achieved as certified by the compensation committee, would be considered time-based equity for purposes of the Death/Disability Benefit Policy.

***2019 Plan***

Under the 2019 Plan, in the event of our change in control (as defined therein and described below), if the successor corporation does not assume or substitute for an award (or a portion of an award), then unless specifically provided otherwise under an award agreement or other written agreement with the participant, the award will accelerate vesting in full, and any awards with performance-based vesting will be deemed to have achieved the performance goals or other vesting criteria at 100% of target levels. In addition, any award of options or stock appreciation rights not assumed or substituted in our change in control will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the administrator of the 2019 Plan after providing notice to the participant holding such award, and the award will terminate upon expiration of such period.

A "change in control" under the 2019 Plan generally means (i) a change in the ownership of the Company that occurs on the date that any Person acquires ownership of the stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company (subject to certain exceptions described in the 2019 Plan); (ii) a change in the effective control of the Company which occurs on the date that a majority of members of the board is replaced during any 12-month period with individuals whose appointment or election to the board is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the board prior to the date of the appointment or election; or (iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such

------

person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions.

The following table sets forth information regarding potential payments that would have been provided to each of our NEOs who were employed with us as of December 31, 2025 under each of the circumstances specified below if he or she had terminated employment with Lyft effective December 31, 2025.

(2)These figures represent the total compensation paid to our PEO and the average of the total compensation paid to our Non-PEO NEOs in each listed fiscal year, respectively, as shown in our Summary Compensation Table for such listed fiscal year.

(3)Compensation Actually Paid ("CAP") does not mean that these amounts were actually paid in the listed fiscal year, but is a dollar amount derived from the starting point of total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table under the methodology prescribed under the SEC's rules (Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) as shown in the adjustment tables below. The assumptions used for determining fair values shown in this table are materially consistent with those used to determine the fair values disclosed as of the grant date of such awards.

(4)Total shareholder return ("TSR") is calculated by assuming that a $100 investment was made on the last trading day prior to the first day of the earliest listed fiscal year reported and reinvesting all dividends until the last day of each reported fiscal year. The peer group used is the S&P 500 Information Technology (IT) index, as used in our performance graph in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

(5)The dollar amounts reported are the Company's GAAP Net Income (Loss) reflected in the Company's audited financial statements.

(6)Stock price is the most important financial performance measure used by the Company to link CAP to our NEOs in fiscal 2025 to performance of the Company. The prices in the table are the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock as reported on the last trading day of the fiscal year. See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" for discussion of the stock price goals applicable to the PSUs granted to our NEOs in 2025.

***Pay Versus Performance Description of Relationships***

The following graph illustrates the relationship between CAP to each of our PEOs and average CAP to our non-PEO NEOs versus TSR for both the Company and the S&P 500 IT Index on a cumulative basis assuming investment of $100 on the last trading day prior to the first day of the fiscal year reported below. The PEO and other NEOs' CAP amounts generally are aligned with the Company's TSR. This is due primarily to the Company's use of equity incentives, which are tied directly to stock price. In 2023, 2024 and 2025, CAP for Mr. Risher is anomalous as Mr. Risher received a PSU award upon his appointment to CEO, which was intended to be Mr. Risher's sole equity for the initial four years of his employment. Therefore, Mr. Risher did not receive an annual equity award in 2025.

**CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure**

In accordance with SEC rules, we are reporting our CEO pay ratio. As set forth in the "Summary Compensation Table" on page <u>[48](#ic163cd16e2f24740baf816d7307b7dbe_4095)</u> of this proxy statement, Mr. Risher's annual total compensation for fiscal 2025 was $2,824,088 and the total compensation of the median employee was $157,418, resulting in a CEO pay ratio of approximately 18:1.

The CEO pay ratio increased for 2025 compared to 2024, but as expected, continues to be below the 2023 CEO Pay Ratio. Given that Mr. Risher did not receive an equity award in 2025, Mr. Risher's fiscal 2025 annual total compensation consisted of only his base pay, cash bonus (which included the additional incremental bonus opportunity for meeting certain performance target levels), and all other compensation. Therefore, the CEO pay ratio increased for 2025 but as expected continues to remain below the CEO pay ratio for 2023 (which was 519:1). In large part due to the additional incremental bonus opportunity for the CEO for 2025, our 2025 CEO pay ratio was higher than our 2024 CEO pay ratio, which was 7:1. In accordance with the SEC rules for calculating the CEO pay ratio, we used Mr. Risher's annualized total compensation for purposes of this calculation.

The SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the CEO pay ratio do not specify a single methodology for identification of the median employee or calculation of the pay ratio, and other companies may apply reasonable assumptions and estimates that are different from those used by us. Therefore, the pay ratio reported by us may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported by other companies.

Our CEO pay ratio is based on the following methodology:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Analyzed all of Lyft's employees, and excluded employees who joined the Company in connection with the 2025 acquisitions of Freenow and TBR (see further detail below), contractors, other non-employees, and the CEO, as of December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• To determine the median employee, we used actual base salary, actual bonus and other non-recurring cash-based payments and the grant date fair value of equity awards granted during fiscal 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• After identifying the median employee, we calculated annual total compensation of the median employee using the same methodology that was used for our NEOs, as set forth in the "Summary Compensation Table" on page <u>[48](#ic163cd16e2f24740baf816d7307b7dbe_4095)</u> of this proxy statement.

For employees based outside of the United States, we converted pay into USD using the exchange rate on December 31, 2025. As permitted by SEC rules, we excluded employees who joined the Company in connection with our acquisitions of Freenow on July 31, 2025 and TBR on October 14, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the number of excluded employees was 808.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Includes the 2019 Plan and the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Includes 26,341,136 shares subject to RSUs and PSUs that were outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and issued under the 2019 Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)No options were outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and therefore, there is no weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options. RSUs and PSUs, which do not have an exercise price, are excluded in the calculation of weighted-average exercise price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)As of December 31, 2025, an aggregate of 72,758,958 shares of common stock were available for issuance under the 2019 Plan and ESPP. The 2019 Plan provides that on the first day of each year beginning on January 1, 2020, the number of shares of Class A common stock available for issuance thereunder is automatically increased by a number equal to the least of (i) 35,000,000 shares, (ii) 5% of the outstanding shares of all classes of our common stock as of the last day of our immediately preceding fiscal year or (iii) such other amount as our board of directors may determine. The ESPP provides that on the first day of each year beginning January 1, 2020, the number of shares of Class A common stock available for issuance thereunder is automatically increased by a number equal to the least of (i) 7,000,000 shares, (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of our common stock as of the last day of our immediately preceding fiscal year or (iii) such other amount as our board of directors may determine. On January 1, 2026, the number of shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2019 Plan increased by 20,042,798 shares pursuant to this provision. With respect to the ESPP, the board determined not to increase the number of shares of Class A common stock available for issuance thereunder on January 1, 2026 pursuant to this provision. The increase to the 2019 Plan is not reflected in the table above.

**SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT**

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 15, 2026 for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our named executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all of our current directors and executive officers as a group; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each person or group known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and thus it represents sole or shared voting or investment power with respect to our securities. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable.

We have based our calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership on 388,925,193 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding as of March 15, 2026. We have deemed shares of our common stock subject to stock options held as of March 15, 2026 that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 15, 2026 or issuable pursuant to RSUs held as of March 15, 2026 which are subject to vesting and settlement conditions expected to occur within 60 days of March 15, 2026 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the stock option or RSU for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. There were no shares of Class B common stock outstanding as of March 15, 2026.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o Lyft, Inc., 185 Berry St., Suite 400, San Francisco, California 94107. The information provided in the table is based on our records, information filed with the SEC and information provided to us, except where otherwise noted.

**CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED PARTY AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS**

We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, since the beginning of our last fiscal year, to which we were a participant or will be a participant, in which:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any of our directors, nominees for director, executive officers or beneficial holders of more than 5% of any class of our outstanding capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals or entities, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

**Convertible Note Offering**

In September 2025, we conducted a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Convertible Notes"), which included the full exercise by the initial purchasers of their overallotment option to purchase an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of notes. Entities affiliated with Blackrock, Inc. ("BlackRock"), which reported that they beneficially owned more than 5% of our common stock until March 31, 2025, purchased $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2030 Convertible Notes. Additionally, entities affiliated with Fidelity and AQR Capital Management Holdings, which reports that they beneficially own over 5% of our common stock, purchased $20.0 million and $2.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2030 Convertible Notes, respectively. The offering of the 2030 Convertible Notes was approved by the audit committee.

**Transactions with Entities Affiliated with BlackRock**

Entities affiliated with BlackRock reported that they beneficially owned more than 5% of our outstanding Class A common stock from December 31, 2024 until March 31, 2025. BlackRock manages our investment portfolio based on a risk portfolio defined by us and takes action on our investments at our direction and during 2025, we paid BlackRock $0.8 million in fees based on the amounts invested.

**Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions**

Our audit committee has the primary responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving "related party transactions," which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Our policy regarding transactions between us and related persons provides that a related person is defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director, or greater than 5% beneficial owner of our common stock, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed year, and any of their immediate family members. Our audit committee charter provides that our audit committee shall review and approve or disapprove any related party transactions.

In determining whether to approve or ratify any such transaction, our audit committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, (i) whether the transaction would affect the independence of any director, (ii) whether the transaction is on terms that reflect an arms-length transaction and (iii) the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction. The policy deems certain transactions not to require audit committee approval, including (i) certain compensation arrangements of executive officers, (ii) certain director compensation arrangements, (iii) transactions with another company at which a related person's only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer), director, or beneficial owner of less than 10% equity interest of that company, (iv) charitable contributions, grants, endowments or pledges by us to a charitable organization, foundation or university where the related person's only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer) or director, if the aggregate amount involved does not exceed the lesser of $1,000,000 or 2% of the charitable organization's total annual receipts, (v) any transaction available to all U.S. employees generally, and (vi) transactions where a related person's interest arises solely from the ownership of our common stock and all holders of our common stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis.

**Appendix A - Supplemental Information About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Metrics**

***Definitions of Key Metrics***

**Active Riders**

The number of Active Riders is a key indicator of the scale of Lyft's user community. Lyft defines Active Riders as all unique riders who have taken at least one ride during the quarter. If a ride is requested by another organization or person for the benefit of a rider, that rider is only included in the calculation of Active Riders if the ride is accessible in the rider's Lyft apps.

In the first quarter of 2025, Lyft updated the definition of Active Riders to simplify the definition and better align the metric with future scaling of the business. Additionally, unique riders were previously identified by phone number and are now identified through a unique internal identifier. The change was adopted prospectively and periods prior to the first quarter of 2025 were not changed as the impact was not material.

**Rides**

Rides represent the level of usage of our multimodal platform. Lyft defines Rides as the total number of rides completed using our multimodal platform that contribute to our revenue. These include any Rides taken through our Lyft apps. If multiple riders take a private rideshare ride, including situations where one party picks up another party on the way to a destination, or splits the bill, we count this as a single rideshare ride. Each unique segment of a Shared Ride is considered a single Ride. For example, if two riders successfully match in Shared Ride mode and both complete their Rides, we count this as two Rides. We have largely shifted away from Shared Rides, and now only offer Shared Rides in limited markets. Lyft includes all Rides taken by riders via our Concierge offering, even though such riders may be excluded from the definition of Active Riders unless the ride is accessible in that rider's Lyft apps.

**Gross Bookings**

Gross Bookings is a key indicator of the scale and impact of our overall platform. Lyft defines Gross Bookings as the total dollar value of transactions including any applicable taxes, tolls and fees, for rides and other offerings provided by Lyft, excluding tips to drivers. In the fourth quarter of 2025, Lyft simplified the definition of Gross Bookings to better align the metric with future scaling of the business. There was no impact to prior periods.

**Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings)**

Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings) is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by Gross Bookings for the same period. For the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

***Non-GAAP Financial Measures***

To supplement Lyft's financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP, Lyft considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings) and free cash flow. Lyft defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, other income, net, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, as well as, if applicable, sublease income, gain from lease termination, restructuring charges, costs related to acquisitions, divestitures and other corporate matters, and certain legal, tax, and regulatory reserve changes and settlements. Adjusted EBITDA margin (calculated as a percentage of Gross Bookings) is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by Gross Bookings for the same period and is considered a key metric. Lyft defines free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and scooter fleet.

Lyft subleases certain office space and earns sublease income. Sublease income is included within other income, net on the consolidated statement of operations, while the related lease expense is included within operating expenses and loss from operations. Lyft believes the adjustment to include sublease income in Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors

------

by enabling them to better assess Lyft's operating performance, including the benefits of recent transactions, by presenting sublease income as a contra-expense to the related lease charges that are part of operating expenses.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we terminated a portion of the lease for the Company's San Francisco headquarters. The right-of-use asset associated with the portion of this lease was previously impaired as part of our previous restructuring plans, and the extinguishment of the remaining lease liability resulted in the recorded gain within operating lease costs. We believe this does not reflect the current period performance of our ongoing operations and that the adjustment to exclude this gain from lease termination from Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors by enabling them to better assess Lyft's ongoing operating performance and provide for better comparability with Lyft's historically disclosed Adjusted EBITDA amounts.

In September 2024, Lyft committed to plans of termination as part of efforts to reduce operating expenses. Lyft believes the costs associated with these restructuring efforts do not reflect performance of Lyft's ongoing operations. Lyft believes the adjustment to exclude the costs related to restructuring from Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors by enabling them to better assess Lyft's ongoing operating performance and provide for better comparability with Lyft's historically disclosed Adjusted EBITDA amounts.

Lyft excludes certain costs related to acquisitions including due diligence costs, professional fees in connection with an acquisition, certain financing costs, and certain integration-related expenses. These expenses are unpredictable, and depend on factors that may be outside of Lyft's control and are not reflective of ongoing core operations. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of costs related to acquisitions, may not be indicative of such future costs. Lyft believes excluding costs related to acquisitions, divestitures and other corporate matters facilitates the comparison of our financial results to Lyft's historical operating results and to other companies in industry.

Certain legal, tax, and regulatory reserve changes and settlements are primarily related to certain reserves and/or settlements for significant legal proceedings or governmental investigations and the associated fees. These matters have limited precedent, cover extended historical periods and are unpredictable in both magnitude and timing, therefore are distinct from normal, recurring legal, tax and regulatory matters and related expenses incurred in Lyft's ongoing operating performance.

Lyft uses its non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of the overall assessment of Lyft's performance, including the preparation of the annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of business strategies, and to communicate with Lyft's board of directors concerning financial performance. Free cash flow is a measure used by our management to understand and evaluate operating performance and trends. Lyft believes free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides management with information about Lyft's ability to generate or use cash to enhance the strength of the balance sheet, further invest in the business and pursue potential strategic initiatives. Free cash flow has certain limitations, including that it does not reflect Lyft's future contractual commitments and it does not represent the total increase or decrease in Lyft's cash balance for a given period. Free cash flow does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and is not necessarily a measure of Lyft's ability to fund cash needs.

Lyft's definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Furthermore, these measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in Lyft's consolidated statement of operations that are necessary to run the business. Thus, our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Note: Beginning in Q1'25, Lyft no longer presents Adjusted Net Income (Loss). Accordingly, non-GAAP costs and expenses now considers the impact of depreciation of fixed assets and interest related to financed vehicles which have been historically excluded from Lyft's Adjusted EBITDA calculation. Prior period non-GAAP results have been recast to conform to current period presentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion</u>. The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Class B Common Stock such number of its shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock will not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock,

------

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VII, each director shall serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her death, resignation, or removal. If the number of directors is thereafter changed, any newly created directorships or decrease in directorships shall be so apportioned among the classes as to make all classes as nearly equal in number as is practicable.
