PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

JUNE 10, 2025

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THESE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING

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

Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the internet. Accordingly, we have sent most stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or the Notice, because the Board of Directors of Olema Pharmaceuticals, Inc., sometimes referred to as the Company or Olema, is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or the Annual Meeting, including at any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Notice.

We intend to mail the Notice on or about April 29, 2025, to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Will I receive any other proxy materials by mail?

You will generally not receive any other proxy materials by mail unless you request a paper copy of proxy materials. To request that a full set of the proxy materials be sent to your specified postal address, please go to www.envisionreports.com/OLMA, call 1-866-641-4276, or email investorvote@computershare.com. Please have your Notice in hand when you access the website or call and follow the instructions provided. We may elect to send you a proxy card, along with a second Notice, on or after May 8, 2025.

How do I attend the Annual Meeting?

The meeting will be held virtually via live webcast on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, at 8:00 a.m. PT. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. If you attend the Annual Meeting online, you will be able to vote and submit questions.

You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting by first registering at web.viewproxy.com/olma/2025.

If you are a beneficial owner (that is, you hold your shares in an account at a bank, broker or other holder of record), you should contact the bank, broker or other institution where you hold your account well in advance of the meeting if you have questions about obtaining your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting. Information on how to vote online at the Annual Meeting is discussed below.

Whether or not you participate in the Annual Meeting, it is important that you vote your shares.

We encourage you to access the Annual Meeting before it begins. Online check-in will start approximately 15 minutes before the meeting on June 10, 2025.

What if I cannot find my Control Number?

Please note that if you do not have your Control Number and you are a registered stockholder, and, during the registration process you indicated that you will be voting at the meeting, once your registration is approved, an e-mail will be sent to you that will contain your Virtual Control Number. If you have lost this Virtual Control Number, please e-mail virtualmeeting@viewproxy.com.

If you are a beneficial owner, you will need to contact your bank, broker or other holder of record to obtain your legal proxy prior to the Annual Meeting.

Will a list of record stockholders as of the record date be available?

For the Annual Meeting, how do we ask questions of management and the Board of Directors?

We plan to have a Q&A session at the Annual Meeting and will include as many appropriate stockholder questions as the allotted time permits. Stockholders may submit questions that are relevant to our business in advance of the Annual Meeting as well as live during the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder, you may submit a question in advance of or during the meeting the Annual Meeting at web.viewproxy.com/olma/2025.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 21, 2025 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On this record date, there were 68,360,752 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on April 21, 2025 your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote online at the Annual Meeting, vote by proxy through the internet or by telephone, or vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy through the internet or by telephone as instructed below, or by completing a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. If you are a registered stockholder and, during the registration process you indicated that you will be voting at the meeting, once your registration is approved, an e-mail will be sent to you that will contain your Virtual Control Number. You will not need the Virtual Control Number to join the meeting, however you will need it if you choose to vote during the meeting.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank

If on April 21, 2025 your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting online. You may vote prior to the meeting by logging in with the Control Number on your voting instruction form at www.envisionreports.com/OLMA.

If you hold your shares beneficially through a bank or broker, you must provide a legal proxy from your bank or broker during the registration process and you will be assigned a Virtual Control Number to vote your shares during the Annual Meeting. If you are unable to obtain a legal proxy to vote your shares, you will still be able to attend the Annual Meeting (but will not be able to vote your shares) so long as you demonstrate proof of stock ownership. Instructions on how to connect and participate via the internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at web.viewproxy.com/olma/2025. On the day of the Annual Meeting, you may only vote during the meeting by e-mailing a copy of your legal proxy to virtualmeeting@viewproxy.com in advance of the meeting.

What am I voting on?

There are three matters scheduled for a vote:

What if another matter is properly brought before the meeting?

The Board of Directors knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with his or her best judgment.

How do I vote?

You may either vote “For” all the nominees to the Board of Directors or you may “Withhold” your vote for any nominee you specify. For each of the other matters to be voted on, you may vote “For,” “Against” or abstain from voting.

The procedures for voting are:

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote online during the webcast of the Annual Meeting, vote by proxy through the internet or by telephone, or vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote online even if you have already voted by proxy.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other agent, you should have received a Notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from the Company. Simply follow the voting instructions in the Notice to ensure that your vote is counted. To vote online at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. Follow the instructions from your broker or bank included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker or bank to request a proxy form.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you owned as of April 21, 2025.

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

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

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “For” the election of all three nominees for director, “For” Proposal No. 2, and

“For” Proposal No. 3. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxyholder will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, what happens?

If your shares are held in street name, your bank, broker or other nominee may under certain circumstances vote your shares if you do not timely instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee how to vote your shares. Banks, brokers and other nominees can vote your unvoted shares on routine matters, but cannot vote such shares on non-routine matters. If you do not timely provide voting instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee to vote your shares, your bank, broker, or other nominee may, on routine matters, either vote your shares or leave your shares unvoted. The election of directors (Proposal No. 1) and the advisory approval of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (Proposal No. 2) are non-routine matters. The ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal No. 3) is a routine matter. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee. This ensures that your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting according to your instructions. You should receive directions from your bank, broker, or other nominee about how to submit your proxy to them at the time you receive the Notice.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, online, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks, and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

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

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

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If your shares are held by your broker or bank as a nominee or agent, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or bank.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately count, for the proposal to elect directors, votes “For,” “Withhold,” and broker non-votes; and, with respect to the other proposals, votes “For,” “Against,” abstentions and, if applicable, broker non-votes.

What are “broker non-votes”?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when your broker submits a proxy for the meeting with respect to “routine” matters but does not vote on “non-routine” matters because you did not provide voting instructions on these matters. These un-voted shares with respect to the “non-routine” matters are counted as “broker non-votes.” Proposals 1 and 2 are considered to be “non-routine” under New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, rules. Therefore, we expect broker non-votes to exist in connection with those proposals.

As a reminder, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

The following table summarizes the minimum vote needed to approve each proposal and the effect of abstentions and broker non-votes.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present at the meeting in person, by remote communication or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 68,360,752 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of 34,180,377 shares must be present in person, by remote communication or represented by proxy at the meeting to have a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the Chairperson of the Annual Meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present at the meeting in person, by remote communication or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another date.

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

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

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

To be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials for our 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, your proposal must be submitted in writing by December 30, 2025, to our Secretary at 780 Brannan Street, San Francisco, California 94103, and you must comply with all applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. However, if the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is advanced by more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after June 10, 2026, then the deadline will be a reasonable time prior to the time we begin to print and send our proxy materials.

Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or our bylaws, if you wish to submit a director nomination, or a proposal that is not to be included in the Company’s proxy materials, for next year’s annual meeting of stockholders, you must do so not later than the close of business on March 12, 2026 and no earlier than the close of business on February 10, 2026; provided, however, that if next year’s annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after June 10, 2026, your proposal must be submitted not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or, if later than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of such meeting is first made. In addition, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must also comply with the additional requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act. You are advised to review our bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. ​

PROPOSAL NO. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of directors, each serving for a three-year term. Vacancies on our Board of Directors may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by our Board of Directors to fill a vacancy in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that class and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified.

Our Board of Directors currently is composed of ten directors. There are three directors whose term of office expires in 2025. Upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board of Directors has nominated the three individuals listed in the table below for election as directors at the Annual Meeting. There are no arrangements or understandings between us and any director or nominee for directorship pursuant to which such person was selected as a director or nominee. If the nominees listed below are elected, they will each hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders in 2028 and until each of their successors has been duly elected and qualified or, if sooner, until such director’s death, resignation or removal. All nominees are currently serving on our Board of Directors and have consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, your shares will be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by our Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of the nominees would prove unable to serve if elected. It is our policy to encourage directors and nominees for director to attend the Annual Meeting. Three of our then-serving directors attended the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.

The brief biographies below include information, as of the date of this proxy statement, regarding the specific and particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to believe that each director or nominee should serve on the Board of Directors. There are no family relationships among any of our executive officers or directors.

Ms. Butitta served as the Chief Operating Officer of Kite Pharma Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, from March 2014 to September 2017 and as its Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer from January 2014 to May 2016.

Ms. Butitta received a B.S. with honors in Business and Accounting from Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin and an M.B.A. in Finance from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. We believe Ms. Butitta is qualified to serve on our Board of Directors due to her extensive executive experience in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Dr. Harmon has served as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Vilya, Inc., a computational biotechnology company, since October 2023.

Although Mr. Clark currently serves as a director on the boards of six public companies, we believe Mr. Clark has sufficient time to devote to his duties on our Board of Directors based on his board meeting attendance record, including 100% attendance at board meetings in 2024, attention to our meetings and discussions as Chairperson, and retirement from full-time employment. Due to his specialized industry knowledge related to the management and strategy of life science and biotechnology companies, as well as his perspective on the industry, we believe Mr. Clark should continue to serve on our Board of Directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD MATTERS

Overview

We are committed to exercising good corporate governance practices. In furtherance of this commitment, we regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance and review our processes, policies, and procedures in light of such developments. Key information regarding our corporate governance initiatives can be found on our corporate website at https://www.olema.com/ in the Investors section under “Corporate Governance,” including our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and the charters for our Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. We believe that our corporate governance policies and practices, including the substantial percentage of independent directors on our Board of Directors and the appointment of an independent Chairperson of the Board of Directors, empower our independent directors to effectively oversee our management, including the performance of our Chief Executive Officer, and provide an effective and appropriately balanced board governance structure. Given the diverse patient populations we seek to serve, we value diverse perspectives and believe different points of view, in addition to industry expertise and professional experience, lead to better business performance, decision making and understanding. Our Board currently consists of 30% of directors who identify as female and 10% of directors who self-reported as being of Asian background.

Independence of the Board of Directors

As required under the Nasdaq listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company’s board of directors must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by its board of directors. Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees, and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning such director’s background, employment, and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Clark, Garland and Rappaport, Mses. Butitta and Larson and Drs. Horning, Hrustanovic and Walmsley do not have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is otherwise “independent” as that term is defined under applicable Nasdaq listing standards. Drs. Bohen and Harmon, by virtue of their positions as our President and Chief Executive Officer and former Chief Research Officer, respectively, are not independent under applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and Nasdaq listing standards. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee during 2024 is independent under applicable Nasdaq listing standards and that each member of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee during 2024 meets the heightened requirements for such committee membership under applicable Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. In making these independence 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.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure

The positions of Chairperson of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer are currently separated. Separating these positions allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing our Chairperson to lead our Board of Directors in its fundamental role of providing advice to and oversight of other members of management. Our Board of Directors recognizes the time, effort, and energy that the Chief Executive Officer must devote to his position in the current business environment, particularly as our Board of Directors’ oversight responsibilities continue to grow.

Although our bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines do not require that we separate the Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer positions, our Board of Directors believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for us at this time. Our Board of Directors recognizes that, depending on the circumstances, other leadership models, such as combining the role of Chairperson with the role of Chief Executive Officer, might be appropriate. Accordingly, our Board of Directors may periodically review its leadership structure. Our Board of Directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function has not affected its leadership structure.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that in the event that the Chairperson is not an independent director, our Board of Directors may designate one of the independent directors to serve as Lead Independent Director. Specific roles and responsibilities of the Lead Independent Director, which are detailed in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, include:

As discussed above, except for our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Research Officer, our Board of Directors consists of independent directors. The active involvement of these independent directors provide balance on the Board of Directors and promote strong, independent oversight of our management and affairs.

Role of the Board of Directors in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors believes that risk management is an important part of establishing, updating, and executing on our business strategy. Our Board of Directors, as a whole and at the committee level, has oversight responsibility relating to risks that could affect the corporate strategy, business objectives, compliance, operations, and the financial condition and performance of the Company. Our Board of Directors focuses its oversight on the most significant risks facing the Company and on its processes to identify, prioritize, assess, manage, and mitigate those risks. In addition, our Board of Directors believes that separating the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board of Directors supports independent decision-making in developing our risk management and risk mitigation strategies and reinforces the independence of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors and its committees receive

regular reports from members of the Company’s senior management on areas of material risk to the Company, including strategic, operational, financial, cybersecurity, legal, and regulatory risks. While our Board of Directors has an oversight role, management is principally tasked with direct responsibility for management and assessment of risks and the implementation of processes and controls to mitigate their effects on the Company.

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our financial reporting process on behalf of our Board of Directors and reviewing with management and our auditors, as appropriate, our major financial and enterprise risk exposures as well as overseeing cybersecurity risk management, including responsibility for supervising risk mitigation efforts related to cybersecurity threats, evaluating the sufficiency and effectiveness of information security policies and practices, and ensuring robust internal controls for information security. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing our practices and policies of employee compensation as they relate to risk management and risk-taking incentives to determine whether such compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the management of risks associated with our overall corporate compliance, Code of Conduct, and corporate governance practices and the independence and composition of our Board of Directors. These committees provide regular reports to the full Board of Directors.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors met eight times during 2024. Each director attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the committees on which such person served, held during the portion of 2024 for which such person was a director or committee member.

As required under applicable Nasdaq listing standards, in 2024, the Company’s independent directors met three times in regularly scheduled executive sessions at which only independent directors were present. The Chairperson of the Board of Directors presided over the executive sessions.

Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The following table provides information as to the membership and meetings of each of these committees of the Board of Directors in 2024:

* Committee Chairperson

(1) Upon the conclusion of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or the 2024 Annual Meeting, Ms. Butitta stepped down from the Compensation Committee. Furthermore, upon the conclusion of the 2024 Annual Meeting, Mr. Rappaport stepped down as the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee and Mr. Garland became Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.

(2) Upon the conclusion of the 2024 Annual Meeting, Dr. Walmsley stepped down from the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Dr. Horning was appointed to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Below is a description of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The written charters of the committees are available to stockholders on our corporate website at https://www.olema.com/ in the Investors section under "Corporate Governance." Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee currently consists of Ms. Butitta, Mr. Rappaport and Dr. Walmsley. The Chairperson of our Audit Committee is Ms. Butitta. Our Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Butitta is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the SEC regulations. Each member of our Audit Committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. In arriving at these determinations, our Board of Directors has examined each Audit Committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of her or his employment in the corporate finance sector. The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our Board of Directors with respect to our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control and financial statement audits, and to oversee our independent registered accounting firm. Specific responsibilities of this committee include:

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 with management of the Company. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, and the SEC. The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’

communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the accounting firm’s independence. Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The material in this report is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the Commission and is not to be incorporated by reference in any filing of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Garland and Rappaport and Dr. Hrustanovic, and the Chairperson of our Compensation Committee is Mr. Garland. The primary purpose of our Compensation Committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our Board of Directors in overseeing our compensation policies, plans and programs and to review and determine the compensation to be paid to our executive officers, directors and other senior management, as appropriate. The specific responsibilities of this committee include:

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures

Typically, the Compensation Committee meets at least quarterly and with greater frequency if necessary. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer and Aon’s Human Capital Solutions practice, a division of Aon plc, or Aon, the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session. However, from time to time, various members of management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Compensation Committee to make presentations, to provide financial or other background information or advice or to otherwise participate in Compensation Committee meetings. The Chief Executive Officer may not participate in, or be

present during, any deliberations or determinations of the Compensation Committee regarding his compensation or individual performance objectives.

The charter of the Compensation Committee grants the Compensation Committee full access to all of our books, records, facilities, and personnel. In addition, under the charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at our expense, advice and assistance from compensation consultants and internal and external legal, accounting, or other advisors and other external resources that the Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties. The Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the oversight of the work of any consultants or advisers engaged for the purpose of advising the Compensation Committee. In particular, the Compensation Committee has the authority to retain, in its sole discretion, compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive and director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms. Under the charter, the Compensation Committee may select, or receive advice from, a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser to the Compensation Committee, other than in-house legal counsel and certain other types of advisers, only after taking into consideration six factors, prescribed by the SEC and Nasdaq, that bear upon the adviser’s independence; however, there is no requirement that any adviser be independent.

During the past year, after taking into consideration the six factors prescribed by the SEC and Nasdaq described above, the Compensation Committee engaged Aon as a compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee requested that Aon review industry-wide compensation practices and trends to assess the competitiveness of our executive and non-employee director compensation programs, including its non-employee director equity compensation policy.

As part of its engagement, Aon was requested by the Compensation Committee to develop a comparative group of companies and to perform analyses of competitive performance and compensation levels for that group. Aon also spoke with senior management to learn more about our business operations and strategy, key performance metrics and strategic goals, as well as the labor markets in which we compete. Aon ultimately provided input that was presented to the Compensation Committee for its consideration and to the Board for its information. Following an active dialogue with Aon and senior management, the Compensation Committee recommended that the Board approve certain recommendations based on the input provided by Aon.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee currently consists of Mr. Clark, Ms. Larson and Dr. Horning. The Chairperson of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is Mr. Clark.

Specific responsibilities of our Nominating and Corporate Governance committee include:

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including familiarity with the Company's business and industry, the ability to read and understand basic financial statements, the ability to work collegially with other members of the Board, and having the highest personal integrity and ethics. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also intends to consider such factors as possessing relevant professional background or expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management; having sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Company; demonstrating excellence in such person’s field; having the ability to exercise sound business judgment; having experience as a board member or executive officer of another publicly held company; having a diverse personal background, perspective and experience; requirements of applicable law; potential conflicts of interest with other pursuits; and having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of our stockholders. However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee retains the right to modify these qualifications from time to time. Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board of Directors, the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee typically considers diversity, age, skills, and such other factors as it deems appropriate, given the current needs of the Board of Directors and the Company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability.

In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews these directors’ overall service to the Company during their terms, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance, and any other relationships and transactions that might impair the directors’ independence. In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for Nasdaq purposes, which determination is based upon applicable Nasdaq listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations, and the advice of counsel, if necessary. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee establishes criteria for a potential candidate based on the qualifications and factors set forth above and engages a professional search firm to assist in finding a potential candidate based upon such criteria. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider the candidates’ qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the Board of Directors by majority vote.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the minimum criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to become nominees for election to the Board of Directors may do so by delivering a written recommendation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee at the following address: 780 Brannan Street, San Francisco, California 94103. Submissions must include, among other items required by our bylaws, the name, age, business address and residence address of the proposed nominee; the principal occupation or employment of such nominee; the class and number of shares of each class of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by the proposed nominee; the date or dates on which such shares were acquired and the investment intent of such acquisition; a statement whether the proposed nominee, if elected, intends to tender, promptly following such person’s failure to receive the required vote for election or re-election at the next meeting at which such person would face election or re-election, an irrevocable resignation effective upon acceptance of such resignation by the Board of Directors; and such other information concerning such nominee as would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such nominee as a director in an election contest (even if an election contest is not involved), or that is otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected).

Stockholder Communications With the Board of Directors

We consider our relationships with our stockholders to be a high priority, and the members of our Board of Directors believe that stockholders should have an opportunity to communicate with them. To ensure that our stockholders’ different perspectives on our practices and objectives are well understood by management and our Board of Directors, we actively engage in ongoing dialogue with our stockholders through our stockholder engagement efforts throughout the year. We also strive to provide responses to appropriate inquiries from stockholders in a timely manner. Stockholder engagement is led by our Investor Relations team, and includes attendance at industry investor conferences, targeted outreach to stockholders and prospective stockholders, and maintaining open lines of communication for inquiries.

Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board of Directors or an individual director may send a written communication c/o Olema Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 780 Brannan Street, San Francisco, California 94103, Attn: Secretary. The Secretary will review each communication. The Secretary will forward such communication to the Board of Directors or to any individual director to whom the communication is addressed unless the communication contains advertisements or solicitations or is unduly hostile, threatening, or similarly inappropriate, in which case the Secretary shall discard the communication.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or Code of Conduct, applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller. The Code of Conduct is available on our corporate website at https://www.olema.com/ in the Investors section under “Corporate Governance.” If we make any substantive amendments to our Code of Conduct or grant any of our directors or executive officers any waiver, including any implicit waiver, from a provision of our Code of Conduct, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website or in a Current Report on Form 8-K. Information contained in, or that can be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference herein, and you should not consider information on our website to be part of this proxy statement or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of the Company’s securities by directors, officers and employees that is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, as well as procedures designed to further the foregoing purposes. In addition, it is the Company’s intent to comply with applicable laws and regulations relating to insider trading. A copy of our Insider Trading Policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

As part of our Board of Directors’ commitment to enhancing stockholder value over the long term, our Board of Directors has adopted a set of Corporate Governance Guidelines to provide the framework for the governance of the Company and to assist our Board of Directors in the exercise of its responsibilities. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines cover, among other topics, board composition and structure, board membership criteria, director independence, board and board committee assessments, committees of the Board of Directors, board access to management and outside advisors, and director orientation and education. The Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as current copies of the charters for each committee of the Board of Directors, may be viewed on our corporate website at https://www.olema.com in the Investors section under “Corporate Governance.”

PROPOSAL NO. 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act, and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company’s stockholders are entitled to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with SEC rules. At the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders indicated their preference that the Company solicit a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay vote,” every year. The Board of Directors has adopted a policy that is consistent with that preference.

This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of the Company’s named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. The compensation of the Company’s named executive officers subject to the vote is disclosed in the compensation tables and the related narrative disclosure contained in this proxy statement. As discussed in those disclosures, the Company believes that its compensation policies and decisions are designed to meet two objectives: (i) to attract and retain talented and skilled executives by paying for performance and (ii) to align compensation of our executives with our stockholders through an appropriate mix of short-term and long-term compensation. Compensation of the Company’s named executive officers is designed to enable the Company to attract and retain talented and experienced executives to lead the Company successfully in a competitive environment.

Accordingly, the Board is asking the stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as described in this proxy statement by casting a non-binding advisory vote “FOR” the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion that accompanies the compensation tables, is hereby APPROVED.”

Because the vote is advisory, it is not binding on the Board or the Company. Nevertheless, the views expressed by the stockholders, whether through this vote or otherwise, are important to the Board and the Compensation Committee, and accordingly the Board and the Compensation Committee intend to consider the results of this vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL NO. 2.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025, and has further directed that management submit the selection of its independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Ernst & Young LLP has audited our financial statements since 2020. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither our bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is submitting the selection of Ernst & Young LLP to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 3.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Pre-Approval Procedures

The Audit Committee has procedures in place for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP. The Audit Committee generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services and tax services up to specified amounts. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service. The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee’s members, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We are a “smaller reporting company” under Item 10 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act and the following compensation disclosure is intended to comply with the requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies. Although the rules allow us to provide less detail about our executive compensation program than companies that are not smaller reporting companies, our Compensation Committee is committed to providing the information necessary to help stockholders understand its executive compensation related decisions. Accordingly, this section includes supplemental narratives that describe our 2024 compensation program for our named executive officers.

Our named executive officers for the year ended December 31, 2024, consisting of our principal executive officer and the next two most highly compensated executive officers were:

Executive Compensation Practices

Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation program reflects our philosophy of aligning executive compensation with company and individual performance and value creation for the company. We also consider current market practices and trends, and supporting our goals to deliver on our mission and objectives. Executive compensation consists of a base salary and bonus, adjusted based on market trends, and an equity component, including annual refresh grants, which are subject to time-based vesting to incentivize long-term value creation for stockholders.

Competitive Market Review

As described above, during 2024, the Compensation Committee engaged Aon as its compensation consultant. As part of its engagement, the Compensation Committee requested that Aon develop a comparative group of companies and to perform analyses of competitive performance and compensation levels for purposes of developing recommendations that were presented to the Compensation Committee for its consideration. In developing our peer group for 2024, the criteria used to identify the peer companies were stage of development, business focus in similar therapeutic areas such as oncology, market capitalization, headcount, and location. The 28 companies selected for our peer group for 2024 are listed below.

2024 Say on Pay Vote

At the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting, the non-binding advisory vote to approve the Company’s executive compensation program passed, with over 98% of the votes cast being in favor of the resolution. We take the views of our stockholders seriously and as such we hold a non-binding advisory vote on our executive compensation annually.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table shows for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the compensation awarded to or paid to, or earned by, (i) our principal executive officer and (ii) each of our two other most highly compensated executive officers during the year ended December 31, 2024 who were serving as executive officers at the end of the last completed fiscal year.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

Base Salary

Base salaries for our executive officers are initially established through arm’s-length negotiations at the time of the executive officer’s hiring, taking into account such executive officer’s qualifications, experience, the scope of such officer’s responsibilities and competitive market compensation paid by other companies for similar positions within the industry and geography. Base salaries are reviewed periodically, typically in connection with our annual performance review process, and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience. In making decisions regarding salary increases, we may also draw upon the experience of members of our Board of Directors with executives at other companies.

The 2023 and 2024 annual base salaries for our named executive officers are set forth in the table below. The Compensation Committee evaluated the 2023 and 2024 base salaries of our named executive officers with Aon and determined to increase base salaries for our named executive officers as shown below. For

a further discussion of the Compensation Committee’s processes and procedures for determining the compensation of our named executive officers, refer to “Compensation Committee—Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures” above.

Annual Bonus Plan

Our executive officers are eligible to receive performance-based cash bonuses, which are designed to provide appropriate incentives to our executives to achieve defined performance goals and to reward our executives for individual achievement toward these goals. The performance-based bonus each executive officer is eligible to receive is generally based on the extent to which we achieve the corporate goals that our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee establishes, as well as individual performance, and is paid annually. Annually, our Compensation Committee performs a qualitative review of the Company’s performance and the individual performance of the executive officers, and determines the actual bonus payout to be awarded to each of our eligible executive officers.

For 2024, our named executive officers were eligible to earn annual cash bonuses with the following target percentages, expressed as a percent of base salary, of 60% for Dr. Bohen, 50% for Mr. Kovacs, and 45% for Dr. Zojwalla based on the achievement of certain corporate performance objectives approved by our Board of Directors. For 2024, the corporate performance metrics set by our Board of Directors were (1) significantly advance the palazestrant (OP-1250) pivotal Phase 3 monotherapy clinical trial, (2) advance the progress of the Phase 1b/2 clinical studies of palazestrant in combination with each of palbociclib and ribociclib, respectively, (3) file an investigational new drug application for OP-3136 by year end, (4) achieve specific dosage, formulation and drug supply targets, (5) broadening our pipeline, and (6) the achievement of certain organizational, talent, and strategic business development goals. The performance objectives were set in a manner intended to be challenging. In January 2025, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s achievements against our 2024 corporate goals, and determined that the Company met, and in some instances exceeded, the corporate goals established, particularly with respect to strategic partnerships and the clinical development of palazestrant and OP-3136. Based on this review, the Compensation Committee determined the level of corporate achievement for 2024 to be 107%. The Compensation Committee then considered individual performance, in addition to the corporate achievement, and, based on this review, approved bonus payments for 2024 for Drs. Bohen and Zojwalla and Mr. Kovacs as set forth in the table below.

​Equity Compensation

We believe that our ability to grant equity-based awards is a valuable and necessary compensation tool that aligns the long-term financial interests of our executive officers with the financial interests of our stockholders. In addition, we believe that our ability to grant equity-based awards helps us to attract, retain and motivate executive officers, and encourages them to devote their best efforts to our business and financial success. Vesting of equity awards is generally tied to continuous service with us and serves as an additional retention measure. Our executive officers generally are awarded an initial new hire grant upon commencement of employment, as well as annual grants.

Each of our named executive officers currently holds stock options under our 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2020 Plan, that were granted subject to the general terms of the 2020 Plan and the applicable forms

of stock option agreement thereunder. Additionally, Dr. Bohen holds stock options under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2014 Plan, that were granted subject to the general terms of the 2014 Plan and the applicable forms of stock option agreement thereunder. Dr. Zojwalla also holds stock options under our 2022 Inducement Plan, or the Inducement Plan, that were granted subject to the general terms of the Inducement Plan and the applicable forms of stock option agreement thereunder. The specific vesting terms of each named executive officer’s stock options are described below under “—Outstanding Equity Awards at December 31, 2024.” We currently grant equity awards pursuant to the 2020 Plan and the Inducement Plan. All options are granted with a per share exercise price equal to no less than the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant, and generally vest (i) 25% after one year from the vesting commencement date and on a monthly basis thereafter over 36 months or (ii) on a monthly basis over 48 months from the vesting commencement date, subject in each case to the continued service with us through each vesting date. All options have a maximum term of up to 10 years from the date of grant, subject to earlier expiration following the cessation of an executive officer’s continuous service with us. Option vesting is subject to acceleration as described below under “—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.” Options generally remain exercisable for three months following an executive officer’s termination, except in the event of a termination for cause or due to disability or death.

In January 2024, our Compensation Committee approved the grant of options to purchase 621,500, 304,500, and 195,000 shares to Dr. Bohen, Mr. Kovacs, and Dr. Zojwalla, respectively, under the 2020 Plan. Each grant was effective as of February 1, 2024. The options vest 25% after one year from the vesting commencement date and on a monthly basis thereafter over 36 months. The Compensation Committee determined the size of the award after considering market practices and competitive levels for dilution, grant value, criticality of the role, and our overall performance.

In November 2022, to enhance the retention value of the equity program and to reinforce our pay for performance focus, our Board granted special performance-based restricted stock unit awards, or PSU Awards, for 315,000, 105,000, and 80,000 shares to Dr. Bohen, Mr. Kovacs, and Dr. Zojwalla respectively, under the 2020 Plan that, in order to vest in full, require achievement of certain financing and clinical milestones. In November 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that the clinical milestones had been achieved, resulting in 110,250, 36,750, and 28,000 shares of the PSU Awards vested to Dr. Bohen, Mr. Kovacs, and Dr. Zojwalla respectively, as of November 20, 2023. In December 2024, the Compensation Committee determined that the financing milestone had been achieved, and 204,750, 68,250, and 52,000 shares of the PSU Awards vested to Dr. Bohen, Mr. Kovacs, and Dr. Zojwalla respectively, as of December 9, 2024.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

Pursuant to our named executive officers’ employment agreements, if (a) the officer’s employment is terminated without cause (as defined in the respective agreement) or (b) the officer resigns for good reason (as defined in the respective agreement), then in addition to any amounts accrued and payable under the terms of our benefit plans through the date of termination, the officer will be entitled to receive severance as described below. The level of severance benefits will depend on whether or not the termination without cause or resignation for good reason occurs within a “change in control period” that begins three months before the effective date of a change in control (as defined in the respective agreement) and extends through the period ending 18 months following the effective date of a change in control.

If the officer’s employment is terminated without cause or resignation for good reason outside of the change in control period, the officer will be entitled to receive severance in the form of 12 months (18 months in the case of our CEO) of such officer’s then-current base salary, such amount to be paid in equal installments over a twelve-month period after the date of termination, subject to applicable taxes and withholding, as well as up to 12 months (18 months in the case of our CEO) of COBRA coverage. The officer will remain eligible for an annual bonus amount for the year of the separation of service to be determined by our Board of Directors based on corporate performance during the year and prorated based on months of service, subject to applicable taxes and withholding. In addition, Dr. Bohen is entitled to accelerated vesting of his then-outstanding unvested equity awards that would have vested within the next 12 months following his termination date. In the case of each of Mr. Kovacs and Dr. Zojwalla, 50% of such person’s then-unvested time-based equity grants granted in connection with the commencement of such person’s employment shall accelerate and become fully vested as of the termination date.

If the officer’s employment is terminated without cause or resignation for good reason within the change in control period, the officer will be entitled to receive severance in the form of 12 months (18 months in the case of our CEO) of such person’s then-current base salary plus such person’s target bonus for the year of termination to be paid in a lump sum, subject to applicable taxes and withholding, as well as up to 12 months (18 months in the case of our CEO) of COBRA coverage. The officer will also remain eligible for an annual bonus amount for the year of the separation of service to be determined by our Board of Directors based on corporate performance during the year and prorated based on months of service. In addition, all of such person’s then-unvested time-based equity grants shall accelerate and become fully vested as of the termination date. In addition, upon a change in control, any unvested portion of the PSU Award relating to the financing milestone will accelerate and vest in full, and unless any unvested portion of the PSU relating to the clinical milestone is assumed, then any unvested portion of the PSU Award relating to the clinical milestone will vest in full as well. Further, if the officer’s employment is terminated without cause or the officer resigns for good reason within 12 months following the effective time of the change in control, any unvested portion of the PSU Award relating to the clinical milestone will accelerate and vest in full.

These severance benefits are conditioned upon the officer continuing to comply with such person’s obligations under such person’s proprietary information agreement and such person’s delivery of a general release of claims in favor of the company that becomes effective and irrevocable within 60 days of the date of termination. In the event of any payments to our named executive officers being characterized as parachute payments under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, the officer will receive either a reduced payment amount or the full payment about, depending on which results in a more favorable economic benefit.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a 401(k) plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain limits under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, which are updated annually. We have the ability to make matching and discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan and currently make matching

contributions to the 401(k) plan up to 4% of an employee’s base salary. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not generally taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan.

Other Compensation and Benefits

All of our current named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as all of our other employees. We pay the premiums for the life, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance for all of our employees, including our named executive officers.

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or earn any benefits under, any nonqualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2024. Our Board of Directors may elect to provide our officers and other employees with nonqualified deferred compensation benefits in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us, other than the 401(k) plan, during fiscal 2024.

Relocation Policy

In May 2021 we adopted a relocation policy that was subsequently amended in September 2021. The policy provides for a lump sum payment ranging from $15,000 to $100,000, depending on the employee’s position, and an additional amount to compensate for the taxes owed on such payment, for any current or future employee that relocates with the approval of management and for a business need.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

Other than as set forth above, we do not provide any other perquisites or other personal benefits to our named executive officers that are not otherwise provided to all employees.

Hedging and Pledging Prohibition

Pursuant to our insider trading policy, all employees, including our executive officers, and non-employee directors, as well as designated consultants, are prohibited from engaging in short sales of our securities, establishing margin accounts, pledging our securities as collateral for a loan, buying or selling puts or calls on our securities or otherwise engaging in hedging transactions (such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds) involving our securities.

Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy

As a public company, if we are required to restate our financial results due to our material noncompliance

with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws as a result of misconduct, the

Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer may be legally required to reimburse our Company for

any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation they receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended. Additionally, we have adopted an incentive compensation recoupment policy, or Clawback Policy, which is intended to comply with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Standard 5608 implementing Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act. The Clawback Policy is available as Exhibit 97.1 to our Annual Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
