Protecting the health and well-being of the attendees (employees, shareholders and the general public) is our top priority. In light of the recommendations issued by the CDC against public gatherings due to COVID-19, we think a virtual only meeting for this year is advisable. You will be able to attend the meeting online and submit questions during the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2021. You will be able to vote your shares electronically during the meeting by logging in using the 16-digit control number included in your Notice of Internet Availability of the proxy materials, on your proxy card or on the voting instructions form accompanying these proxy materials.
The accompanying proxy statement provides information about the matters we will ask you to consider at the Annual Meeting, which are:

Shareholders who own shares of our common stock as of the record date, March 29, 2021 (the “Record Date”), are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You should review these proxy materials carefully as they give important information about the proposals that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting, as well as other important information about Jamf.
Notice of Electronic Availability of Proxy Statement and Annual Report.   As permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are making this proxy statement and our annual report available to our shareholders electronically via the Internet. The notice of electronic availability contains instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our annual report and vote online. If you received a notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail.

If you received a notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials contained on the notice.
Householding.   The SEC’s rules permit us to print an individual’s multiple accounts on a single notice or set of annual meeting materials. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have summarized on one notice or set of annual meeting materials all of the accounts registered with the same tax identification number or duplicate name and address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted shareholder prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the notice or annual meeting materials, as requested, to any shareholder to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the notice or annual meeting materials, contact Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. at 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at Broadridge Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

In order to vote your shares, please refer to the materials forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee for instructions on how to vote the shares you hold as a beneficial shareholder.
Registered Shareholders.   If you hold shares in your own name, you are a registered shareholder and may vote during the virtual Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2021. You will need your unique control number included on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompany your proxy materials. Only one person will be able to log in with that unique control number at any time. You can also vote by proxy before the Annual Meeting in the following ways:
1.
via the Internet at www.proxyvote.com;

Q: How can I attend the Annual Meeting?
The Annual Meeting is being held as a virtual only meeting this year. If you are a shareholder of record as of the Record Date, you may attend, vote and ask questions virtually at the meeting by logging in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2021 and providing your control number. This number is included in the Notice or on your proxy card.
If you are a shareholder holding your shares in “street name” as of the Record Date, you may gain access to the meeting by following the instructions in the voting instruction card provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. You may not vote your shares via the Internet at the Annual Meeting unless you receive a valid proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer or other nominee holder. If you are not a shareholder as of the Record Date, you may still listen to the Annual Meeting, but will not be able to ask questions or vote at the meeting.
If you have questions, you may type them into the dialog box provided at any point during the meeting (until the floor is closed to questions). The audio broadcast of the Annual Meeting will be archived at https://ir.jamf.com/investor-relations for at least one year.
Recording of the Annual Meeting will not be permitted.
Q: Why is the Annual Meeting virtual only?
We are excited to embrace the latest technology to provide ease of access, real-time communication, and cost savings for our shareholders and our company. Hosting a virtual meeting makes it easy for our shareholders to participate from any location around the world. Further, in light of COVID-19, protecting the health and well-being of the attendees (employees, directors, shareholders and the general public) is our top priority.
Q: What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals, and how are the votes counted?
PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
A plurality of the votes cast by the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to elect each nominee named herein. This means that the three nominees receiving the highest number of votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected, even if those votes do not constitute a majority of the votes cast. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not impact the election of the nominees.
ALL OTHER PROPOSALS
The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve all other items. Abstentions will be counted as present and entitled to vote on the proposals and will therefore have the effect of a negative vote. We do not expect there to be any broker non-votes with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021.
Q: When will the results of the vote be announced?
The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days of the Annual Meeting.
Q: What is the deadline for submitting a shareholder proposal or director nomination for the 2021 Annual Meeting?
Shareholder proposals pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in Jamf’s proxy statement and form of proxy for the Jamf’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders, to be held in 2022, must be received by Jamf at

Any shareholder proposal or director nomination must comply with the other provisions of Jamf’s Bylaws and be submitted in writing to the Secretary at Jamf’s principal executive offices.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board, which is currently composed of nine directors. Our Certificate provides that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our Board.

At each annual meeting of shareholders, a class of directors will be elected for a three-year term to succeed the class whose term is then expiring.
The following table sets forth the director class, name, age as of March 29, 2021, and other information for each member of our Board:

Ms. Atkins has informed the Board that she will be rotating off of the Board effective at or about the time of our Annual Meeting. Following Ms. Atkins’s departure from the Board, Ms. Atkins will remain available as an outsider advisor to the Company and the Board on an ongoing basis regarding diversity and inclusion, ESG, and strategic planning, among other matters.
We believe that in order for our Board to effectively guide us to long-term sustainable, dependable performance, it should be composed of individuals with sophistication and experience in the many disciplines that impact our business. In order to best serve our shareholders, we seek to have a Board, as a whole, that is competent in key corporate disciplines, including accounting and financial acumen, business judgment, crisis management, governance, leadership, people management, risk management, social responsibility and reputational issues, strategy and strategic planning. Additionally, we desire that the Board have specific knowledge related to our industry, such as expertise in software and technology. The Compensation and Nominating Committee believes that all directors must, at a minimum, meet the criteria set forth in the Board’s Code of Ethics and the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which specify, among other things, that the Compensation and Nominating Committee will consider criteria such as independence, diversity, age, skills, and experience in the context of the needs of the Board. In addressing issues of diversity in particular, the Compensation and Nominating Committee considers a nominee’s differences in gender, ethnicity, tenure, skills and qualifications. The Compensation and Nominating Committee believes that diversity of backgrounds and viewpoints is a key attribute for a director nominee. While we do not have a formal policy on diversity, when considering the selection of director nominees, the Compensation and Nominating Committee considers individuals with diverse backgrounds, viewpoints, accomplishments, cultural background and professional expertise, among other factors. Further, our Board is committed to actively seeking highly qualified women and individuals from underrepresented minority groups to include in the pool from which new candidates are selected. The Compensation and Nominating Committee also will consider a combination of factors for each director, including (a) the nominee’s ability to represent all shareholders without a conflict of interest, (b) the nominee’s ability to work in and promote a productive environment, (c) whether the nominee has sufficient time and willingness to fulfill the substantial duties and responsibilities of a director, (d) whether the nominee has demonstrated the high level of character, ethics and integrity expected by the Company, (e) whether the nominee possesses the broad professional and leadership experience

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
and skills necessary to effectively respond to the complex issues encountered by a publicly-traded company, and (f) the nominee’s ability to apply sound and independent business judgment.
The Compensation and Nominating Committee has determined that all of our directors meet the criteria and qualifications set forth in the Code of Ethics for the Board of Directors, the Corporate Governance Guidelines and the criteria set forth above for director nominees. Moreover, each director possesses the following critical personal qualities and attributes that we believe are essential for the proper functioning of the Board to allow it to fulfill its duties for our shareholders: accountability, ethical leadership, governance, integrity, risk management, and sound business judgment. In addition, our directors have the confidence to assess and challenge the way things are done and recommend alternative solutions, a keen awareness of our business and social realities of the environment in which we operate, the independence and high performance standards necessary to fulfill the Board’s oversight function, and the humility, professional maturity, and style to interface openly and constructively with other directors. Finally, the director biographies below include a non-exclusive list of other key experiences and qualifications that further qualify the individual to serve on the Board. These collective qualities, skills, experiences and attributes are essential to our Board’s ability to exercise its oversight function for Jamf and its shareholders, and guide the long-term sustainable, dependable performance of Jamf.
Subject to any earlier resignation or removal in accordance with the terms of our Certificate, Bylaws and Director Nomination Agreement (as defined and discussed below) with our sponsor, Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”), our Class I directors will serve until this first annual meeting of shareholders, our Class II directors will serve until the second annual meeting of shareholders, and our Class III directors will serve until the third annual meeting of shareholders. In addition, our Certificate provides that our directors may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power of our outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class for so long as Vista holds in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) 40% or more of voting power of the then outstanding shares of our capital stock then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Voting Stock”). If Vista no longer holds in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) 40% or more of our Voting Stock, then our directors may be removed only for cause upon the affirmative vote of at least 66 23% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon. In addition, our Bylaws provide Vista with the right to designate the Chair of the Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 30% or more of the voting power of the Voting Stock.
Director Nomination Agreement
In connection with our initial public offering (our “IPO”), we entered into a director nomination agreement (as further amended and restated, the “Director Nomination Agreement”) with Vista that provides Vista the right to designate nominees for election to our Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns 5% or more of the total number of shares of our common stock that it owned immediately prior to the completion of our IPO. Vista may also assign its designation rights under the Director Nomination Agreement to an affiliate. The Director Nomination Agreement specifically provides Vista the right to designate: (i) all of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns 40% or more of the total number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by Vista immediately prior to the completion of our IPO, as adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar changes in the Company’s capitalization (such amount of shares, as adjusted, the “Original Amount”); (ii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 40% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 30% and less than 40% of the Original Amount; (iii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 30% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 20% and less than 30% of the Original Amount; (iv) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 20% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 10% and less than 20% of the Original Amount; and (v) one director for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 5% and less than 10% of the Original Amount. In each case, Vista’s nominees must comply with applicable law, stock exchange rules and our Corporate Governance Guidelines. In addition, Vista is entitled to designate the replacement for any of its Board designees whose service terminates prior to the end of the director’s term regardless of Vista’s beneficial ownership at such time. Vista also has the right to have its designees participate on committees of our Board proportionate to its stock ownership, subject to compliance with applicable law, stock exchange rules and our Corporate

Governance Guidelines. The Director Nomination Agreement also prohibits us from increasing or decreasing the size of our Board without the prior written consent of Vista. This agreement will terminate at such time as Vista owns less than 5% of the Original Amount.
Shareholder Recommendations for Director Nominees
The Compensation and Nominating Committee will consider shareholder nominations for membership on the Board. For the 2022 Annual Meeting, nominations may be submitted to Jamf Holding Corp., 100 Washington Ave S, Suite 1100, Minneapolis, MN 55401, Attn: Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, and such nominations will then be forwarded to the Chair of the Compensation and Nominating Committee. Recommendations must be in writing and we must receive the recommendation no later than the close of business on February 24, 2022 and not earlier than the close of business on January 25, 2022. Recommendations must also include certain other procedural requirements as specified in our Bylaws.
When filling a vacancy on the Board, the Compensation and Nominating Committee identifies the desired skills and experience of a new director and nominates individuals who it believes can strengthen the Board’s capabilities and further diversify the collective experience represented by the then-current directors. The Compensation and Nominating Committee may engage third parties to assist in the search and provide recommendations. Also, directors are generally asked to recommend candidates for the position. The candidates are then evaluated based on the process outlined in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Compensation and Nominating Committee charter, and the same process is used for all candidates, including candidates recommended by shareholders.

If that happens, the persons named as proxies on the proxy card will vote for the substitute. Alternatively, the Board may either let the vacancy stay unfilled until an appropriate candidate is identified or reduce the size of the Board to eliminate the unfilled seat.
The Board Recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the director nominees.

Independence Status
The listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) require that, subject to specified exceptions, such as those described below under the subsection entitled, “Controlled Company Status,” each member of a listed company’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee be independent and that Audit Committee members also satisfy independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.
Our Board has determined that Ms. Atkins and Messrs. Durand and Klausmeyer meet the requirements to be an independent director. In making this determination, our Board considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances that our Board deemed relevant in determining his independence, including beneficial ownership of our common stock.

Controlled Company Status
Vista controls a majority of our outstanding common stock. As a result, we will remain a “controlled company”. Under Nasdaq rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, requirements that, within one year of the date of the listing of our common stock:
1.
we have a board that is composed of a majority of “independent directors”, as defined under the rules of such exchange;
2.
we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors; and
3.
we have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.
We rely on this exemption. As a result, we may not have a majority of independent directors on our Board. In addition, our Compensation and Nominating Committee may not consist entirely of independent directors or be subject to annual performance evaluations. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.
Board Meetings and Committees
We closed our initial public offering in July 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2020, our Board held five regular meetings. Our Audit Committee and our Compensation and Nominating Committee were each formed in connection with our IPO and therefore only held three meetings and one meeting during 2020, respectively. Directors are expected to attend the annual meeting of shareholders and all or substantially all of the Board meetings and meetings of committees on which they serve. In 2020, each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board during such director’s tenure and the total number of meetings held by any of the committees of the Board on which the director served.
Our Board has an Audit Committee and a Compensation and Nominating Committee. The composition, duties and responsibilities of these committees are as set forth below. In the future, our Board may establish other committees, as it deems appropriate, to assist it with its responsibilities.

Executive Officer is subject to our standard confidentiality, invention assignment, non-solicit, non-compete and arbitration agreement.
Mr. Hager’s annual base salary for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $375,000, his target performance-based cash incentive annual bonus is equal to $243,750 and he is eligible for an additional performance-based bonus of up to $131,250. Ms. Putman’s annual base salary for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $325,000 and her performance-based cash incentive annual bonus is equal to 75% of her base salary. Mr. Strosahl’s annual base salary for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $270,000 and his performance-based cash incentive annual bonus is equal to 100% of his base salary, plus an additional $20,000 tied to a specific annual contract value metric. The performance-based cash incentive bonus for each of our Named Executive Officers provides incentive payments correlated to individual management by objectives and the attainment of pre-established objective financial goals.
Our Named Executive Officers’ letter agreements provide that upon a termination by us for any reason other than for “cause” or upon a resignation by such officer for “good reason,” each as defined therein, subject to the execution and delivery of a fully effective release of claims in favor of the Company, Mr. Hager, Mr. Strosahl and Ms. Putman will receive lump sum cash payments equal to 12 months, six months and six months of base salary, respectively.
Non-Equity Incentive Compensation
For 2020, our Named Executive Officers were eligible to receive an annual performance-based cash incentive award. Performance was assessed against goals and targets that were established for the fiscal year by our Board in the third quarter of 2020. Each performance goal was assigned a “target” level of performance. The performance goals used to determine cash incentive awards for 2020 were based on our annual recurring revenue as of December 31, 2020 and total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020, attainment of sales objectives and individual management objectives.
Equity Incentives — 2017 Stock Option Plan
The 2017 Plan was originally adopted by our Board and approved by our shareholders in connection with Vista’s acquisition of Jamf. Under the 2017 Plan, we have reserved for issuance an aggregate of 8,470,000 shares of our common stock. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance is subject to automatic adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization.
The 2017 Plan permits the granting of (i) options to purchase common stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”), and (ii) options that do not so qualify. The option exercise price of each option is determined by the administrator but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The term of each option will be fixed by the administrator and may not exceed 10 years from the date of grant.
Our Board is the administrator of the 2017 Plan. The administrator has full power to select, from among the individuals eligible for awards, the individuals to whom awards will be granted, and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award. The administrator is authorized to exercise its discretion to reduce the exercise price of outstanding stock options or effect the repricing of such awards through cancellation and re-grants without shareholder approval. Persons eligible to participate in the plan are those officers, employees, directors, consultants and other advisors (including prospective employees, but conditioned upon their employment) of the Company and its subsidiaries as selected from time to time by the administrator in its discretion.
Our Board has determined not to make any further awards under the 2017 Plan following the completion of our IPO.
Equity and Cash Incentives — 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan
Our 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) was adopted by our Board and approved by our shareholders in connection with our IPO. Under the 2020 Plan, employees, consultants and directors of our company and our affiliates performing services for us, including our executive officers, are eligible to

receive awards. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, substitute awards, annual incentive awards and performance awards intended to align the interests of participants with those of our shareholders. We initially reserved 14,800,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2020 Plan. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan increases on January 1 of each of the first 10 calendar years during the term of the 2020 Plan by the lesser of: (i) a number of shares of our common stock equal to 4% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year or (ii) such number of shares of our common stock determined by our Board.
The 2020 Plan is administered by our Compensation and Nominating Committee. The Compensation and Nominating Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the 2020 Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the plan. Awards under the 2020 Plan may be made subject to “performance conditions” and other terms.

As December 31, 2020, 8,470,000 shares had been reserved for issuance under our 2017 Plan and 14,800,000 shares had been reserved for issuance under our 2020 Plan, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. The number of shares reserved for issuance under our 2020 Plan automatically increases each January 1, by 4% of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser number of shares as determined by our Board. The shares of common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, cancelled, held back upon exercise or settlement of an award to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by us prior to vesting, satisfied without the issuance of stock, expire or are otherwise terminated, other than by exercise, under the 2017 Plan and 2020 Plan will be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under such plans.

Includes 3,687,664 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding return target options, 3,546,826 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding service options and 1,293,107 shares issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted stock units (“RSUs”).
(3)
As RSUs do not have any exercise price, such units are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation.
(4)
As of December 31, 2020, there are 128,928 shares available for grant under our 2017 Plan and 13,506,893 shares available for grant under our 2020 Plan. We no longer make grants under the 2017 Plan.
401(k) Plan
We maintain a retirement plan that is intended to be tax-qualified that provides all regular employees (including our Named Executive Officers) with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Under our 401(k) plan, participants may elect to defer a portion of their compensation on a pre-tax basis and have it contributed to the plan subject to applicable annual limits under the Code. Pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants’ directions. Employee elective deferrals are 100% vested at all times.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Policies for Approval of Related Party Transactions
We have adopted a written policy with respect to the review, approval and ratification of related party transactions. Under the policy, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions. In the course of its review and approval of related party transactions, our Audit Committee will consider the relevant facts and circumstances to decide whether to approve such transactions. In particular, our policy requires our Audit Committee to consider, among other factors it deems appropriate:

the related person’s relationship to us and interest in the transaction;

the material facts of the proposed transaction, including the proposed aggregate value of the transaction;

the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director or an immediate family member of the director;

the benefits to us of the proposed transaction;

if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services; and

an assessment of whether the proposed transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.
The Audit Committee may only approve those transactions that are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our shareholders, as the Audit Committee determines in good faith.
In addition, under our Code of Ethics our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.
Related Party Transactions
Other than compensation arrangements for our directors and named executive officers, which are described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation”, below we describe transactions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 to which we were a participant or will be a participant, in which:

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

any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of, or person sharing the household with, the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Director Nomination Agreement
For more information on the Director Nomination Agreement that we are party to with Vista, see “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance-Director Nomination Agreement.”
David Breach, Michael Fosnaugh, Charles Guan, Christina Lema and Martin Taylor, five of our current directors, are employed as a Senior Managing Director and the Chief Legal Officer and Chief Operating Officer; Senior Managing Director; Vice President; Managing Director and General Counsel; and Operating Managing Director, respectively, of Vista.
Registration Rights Agreement
We are party to a registration rights agreement with Vista. Vista is entitled to request that we register Vista’s shares on a long-form or short-form registration statement on one or more occasions in the future, which registrations may be “shelf registrations.” Vista is also entitled to participate in certain of our registered offerings, subject to the restrictions in the registration rights agreement. We will pay Vista’s expenses in connection with Vista’s exercise of these rights. The registration rights described in this paragraph apply to (i) shares of our common stock held by Vista and its affiliates and (ii) any of our capital stock (or that of our

subsidiaries) issued or issuable with respect to the common stock described in clause (i) with respect to any dividend, distribution, recapitalization, reorganization, or certain other corporate transactions (“Registrable Securities”). These registration rights are also for the benefit of any subsequent holder of Registrable Securities; provided that any particular securities will cease to be Registrable Securities when they have been sold in a registered public offering, sold in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or repurchased by us or our subsidiaries. In addition, with the consent of the Company and holders of a majority of Registrable Securities, any Registrable Securities held by a person other than Vista and its affiliates will cease to be Registrable Securities if they can be sold without limitation under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
Indemnification of Officers and Directors
We are party to indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors. The indemnification agreements provide the executive officers and directors with contractual rights to indemnification, expense advancement and reimbursement, to the fullest extent permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). Additionally, we may enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors or officers that may be broader in scope than the specific indemnification provisions contained in Delaware law.
Relationship with VCG
Following Vista’s acquisition of Jamf Holding Corp., we have utilized Vista Consulting Group, LLC (“VCG”), the operating and consulting arm of Vista, for consulting services, and have also reimbursed VCG for expenses related to participation by JAMF Holdings, Inc. employees in VCG sponsored events and also paid to VCG related fees and expenses. We paid VCG $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Following our IPO, we may continue to engage VCG from time to time, subject to compliance with our related party transactions policy.
Arrangements with Companies Controlled by Vista
We purchased over $120,000 of services annually from certain companies controlled by Vista. We paid such companies approximately $0.5 million in the aggregate during the year ended December 31, 2020. We believe all of these arrangements are on comparable terms that are provided to unrelated third parties.
We received payments over $120,000 annually from certain companies controlled by Vista of $0.2 million in the aggregate during the year ended December 31, 2020. We believe all of these arrangements are on comparable terms that are provided to unrelated third parties.
Prior Term Loan Facility
From time to time, Vista may acquire loans incurred by us either from us, in open market transactions or through loan syndications. In connection with our entry into our then existing term loan facility (the “Prior Term Loan Facility”), affiliates of Vista collectively acquired $45.0 million of term loans under our Prior Term Loan Facility. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the largest principal amount of debt under the Prior Term Loan Facility held by affiliates of Vista was $34.9 million. In conjunction with the repayment of debt using proceeds from our IPO, Vista received proceeds of $34.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2020, affiliates of Vista were paid $2.1 million in interest on the portion of the Prior Term Loan Facility held by them.
Lease Arrangements
The Company has an ongoing lease agreement for office space in Eau Claire, WI with an entity in which Mr. Wudi, our Chief Technology Officer, is a minority owner. The lease terms are considered to be consistent with market rates. The Company paid $1.1 million to the entity for year ended December 31, 2020.
Private Placement
Concurrently with the Company’s IPO, the Company issued and sold 85,880 shares of common stock in a private placement to certain of its named executive officers, certain of its other employees and its independent directors at the IPO price for aggregate consideration of approximately $2.2 million.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth information about the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 29, 2021 for:

each person or group known to us who beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock;

each of our directors;

each of our Named Executive Officers; and

all of our directors and executive officers as a group.
Each shareholder’s percentage ownership before the offering is based on 117,690,435 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 29, 2021. Beneficial ownership for the purposes of the following table is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting thereof, or to dispose or direct the disposition thereof or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. Common stock subject to options or RSUs that are currently exercisable or exercisable or will vest within 60 days of March 29, 2021 are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options or RSUs. These shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each shareholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over all common stock shown as beneficially owned by the shareholder.
Unless otherwise noted below, the address of each beneficial owner listed on the table is c/o Jamf Holding Corp., 100 Washington Ave S., Suite 1100, Minneapolis, MN 55401. Beneficial ownership representing less than 1% is denoted with an asterisk (*).

PROPOSAL 2 — ADVISORY VOTE REGARDING RETENTION OF THE CLASSIFIED STRUCTURE OF OUR BOARD
Background of the Proposal
In accordance with our Certificate, and as permitted under the DGCL, our Board is divided into three classes. Our current classified Board structure has been in place since our IPO. At each annual meeting of shareholders, commencing with this 2021 Annual Meeting, each director is elected to serve a term of three years, with each director’s term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of shareholders held after the director’s election. The directors designated as Class I have terms expiring at the 2021 Annual Meeting; the directors designated as Class II have terms expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders; and the directors designated as Class III have terms expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of shareholders.
At the time of our IPO, the Board believed that a classified Board structure was an important piece of the Company’s governance structure in order to promote continuity and stability, and was in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board also believed that the classified Board structure would protect the Company against unfair or abusive takeover practices following the IPO and, given the nature of the Company (as discussed in more detail below), protect the long-term value of the Company. At the same time, the Board recognized that some investors may view classified boards as having the effect of reducing the accountability of directors to shareholders because classified boards limit the ability of shareholders to elect all directors on an annual basis. Accordingly, at this Annual Meeting, the Company is asking our shareholders to vote, on an advisory basis, whether to retain the classified Board structure.
If this proposal is approved by the holders of a majority of shares of the Company’s common stock voting on the proposal at the Annual Meeting, then the Company will retain a classified Board. However, if a majority of shares of the Company’s common stock voting on the proposal at the Annual Meeting vote against the proposal, then this proposal would not by itself declassify or begin the declassification of the Board. Instead, rejection of the proposal would only advise the Board that a majority of our shareholders voting at the Annual Meeting desire to end the classified Board structure. Consistent with its fiduciary duties, if shareholders vote against this proposal, the Board will reevaluate its position with respect to our classified Board structure. This reevaluation would include considering the percentage of shareholders voting against this proposal. An affirmative vote of not less than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote at a duly held meeting is required to amend our Certificate to declassify the Board (or 66 23% if Vista owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors). If shareholders representing less than 50% of outstanding common stock reject this proposal, then the Board will likely not take additional steps to declassify the Board.
If a majority of our shareholders vote against this proposal and the Board determines that the declassification of the Board is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, then the Board will include a proposal in the proxy statement for the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders to amend the Certificate to declassify the Board. An amendment to the Certificate must first be approved by the Board and then approved by the affirmative vote of not less than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote at a duly held meeting (or 66 23% if Vista owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors).
The amendment to the Certificate would provide for the phased-in elimination of the classified structure of the Board over a three-year period commencing with the 2023 annual meeting of shareholders. To comply with Delaware law, the amendment of the Certificate would not change the unexpired three-year terms of directors elected prior to the effectiveness of the amendment (including directors elected at the 2021 and 2022 annual meeting of shareholders). This would result in the Board being fully declassified (and all Board members standing for annual elections) commencing with the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.
Starting at the 2023 annual meeting of shareholders, directors would be elected to one-year terms, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Therefore, beginning with the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders, the entire Board would stand for election.
Additionally, under Delaware law, unless otherwise provided in a company’s certificate of incorporation, directors serving on a classified board may only be removed by shareholders for cause, while directors serving

on a non-classified board may be removed by shareholders with or without cause. As a result, approval of an amendment to declassify the Board would also result in an amendment to the Certificate to give our shareholders the ability to remove a director from the Board with or without cause from and after the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders (at which point the Board will be fully declassified).
Board’s Recommendation to Shareholders
The Board regularly reviews the corporate governance policies and practices of the Company to determine whether they are appropriate and will advance the Board’s and management’s goal of maximizing long-term shareholder value. As part of that review, the Board considered whether the Board’s current structure continues to be advisable. The Board evaluated both the advantages and disadvantages of maintaining a classified Board structure, and determined that the classified Board structure continues to be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders following the IPO for the following reasons set forth below:
Long-Term Strategic Thinking and Consistency with Investment Horizons.   We believe that the Company’s current board structure allows its directors to develop a deeper familiarity of the Company’s business following the IPO and encourages long-term, strategic thinking, which enhances long-term shareholder value. Such a long-term strategic approach is particularly critical for the Company, as our business model requires substantial investments in R&D projects in the short-term that may take years to yield the desired results. Additionally, we have a strong balance sheet with a significant amount of cash that we intend to use for R&D and other investments over the next several years that we believe will create long-term shareholder value. Thus, we believe three-year terms on a staggered basis are appropriate and consistent with an investment horizon for a company such as ours, and that our shareholders are best served by director terms that reflect the long-term nature of our business.
Continuity and Stability from Institutional Knowledge.   We believe that three-year terms promote continuity and foster an appropriate institutional memory among directors and a deep knowledge of the business and competitive environment. The Board believed this at the time of our IPO and continues to believe this today. Experienced directors who are knowledgeable about the Company’s fast-paced and complex business environment are a valuable resource and are better positioned to make decisions that are in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders. Staggered terms give the Company’s new directors an opportunity to gain knowledge about the Company’s business from its continuing directors. If all directors were elected annually, the Board could be composed entirely of directors who were unfamiliar with the Company and its business strategies. This could jeopardize our long-term strategies and growth plans.
Accountability to Shareholders.   Under the DGCL, all of our directors are required to uphold their fiduciary duties to our shareholders, regardless of how often they stand for election. Under our classified Board structure, a majority of directors will stand for election during any two-year period. The Board has implemented broad measures to ensure accountability of our directors, including the adoption of our Code of Ethics. In addition, the Board requires an annual self-assessment of the performance of the Board and its committees, which is led by the Compensation and Nominating Committee. This committee also considers the performance of each current director when determining whether or not to recommend the nomination of such director for an additional term. Additionally, any director, or the entire Board, may be removed from office if there is “cause” for removal, subject to the terms of the Certificate. As a result, Jamf benefits from the stability and continuity of a classified Board structure, while retaining meaningful director accountability.
Protecting Shareholder Value in the Event of an Unsolicited Acquisition Offer.   The Company’s current board structure reduces its vulnerability to potentially unfair and abusive takeover tactics and encourages potential acquirers to negotiate with the Board. We believe that the classified Board structure may improve the relative bargaining power of the Company on behalf of its shareholders by providing leverage to negotiate for higher value bids or pursue third party suitors who may be able to offer a higher value. A classified board structure does not preclude unsolicited acquisition proposals. However, by eliminating the threat of imminent removal, it allows the Board to maximize the value of a potential acquisition by giving the Company time and bargaining leverage to evaluate and negotiate the adequacy and fairness of any takeover proposal and to consider alternatives, including the continued operation of the Company’s business.
The Board recommends that you vote, on an advisory basis, “FOR” the retention of our classified Board structure.

PROPOSAL 3 — ADVISORY VOTE REGARDING RETENTION OF THE SUPERMAJORITY VOTING STANDARDS IN OUR CHARTER AND BYLAWS
Background of the Proposal
Our Certificate and Bylaws provide that our Board is expressly authorized to make, alter, amend, change, add to, rescind or repeal, in whole or in part, our Bylaws without a shareholder vote in any matter not inconsistent with the DGCL and our Certificate. For as long as Vista beneficially owns, in the aggregate, at least 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, any amendment, alteration, rescission or repeal of our Bylaws by our shareholders will require the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of our stock entitled to vote on such amendment, alteration, change, addition, rescission or repeal. At any time when Vista beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of all outstanding shares of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, any amendment, alteration, rescission or repeal of our Bylaws by our shareholders will require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 23% in voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.
The DGCL provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, unless the certificate of incorporation requires a greater percentage.
Our Certificate provides that at any time when Vista beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, the following provisions in our Certificate may be amended, altered, repealed or rescinded only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 23% (as opposed to a majority threshold that would apply if Vista beneficially owns, in the aggregate, 50% or more) in voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class:

the provision requiring a 66 23% supermajority vote for shareholders to amend our Bylaws;

the provisions providing for a classified board of directors (the election and term of our directors);

the provisions regarding resignation and removal of directors;

the provisions regarding entering into business combinations with interested shareholders;

the provisions regarding shareholder action by written consent;

the provisions regarding calling special meetings of shareholders;

the provisions regarding filling vacancies on our Board and newly created directorships;

the provisions eliminating monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty by a director; and

the amendment provision requiring that the above provisions be amended only with a 6623% supermajority vote.
In addition, our Certificate provides that directors may be removed with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class; provided, however, at any time when Vista beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 40% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, directors may only be removed for cause, and only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 23% in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.
At the time of our IPO, the Board believed that the supermajority voting standards under our Certificate and Bylaws were an important piece of the Company’s governance structure to safeguard the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders once Vista no longer holds a majority of our shares. At the same time, the Board recognized that some investors may view the supermajority voting standards as a means of blocking initiatives supported by shareholders, but blocked by a status quo management.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Accordingly, at the Annual Meeting, the Company is asking our shareholders to vote, on an advisory basis, whether to retain the supermajority voting standards.
If this proposal is approved by the holders of a majority of shares of the Company’s common stock voting on the proposal at the Annual Meeting, then the Company will retain the supermajority voting standards. Conversely, if a majority of shares of the Company’s common stock voting on the proposal at the Annual Meeting vote against the proposal, then this proposal would not by itself remove the supermajority voting standards. Instead, rejection of the proposal would only advise the Board that a majority of our shareholders voting at the Annual Meeting desire to eliminate the supermajority voting standards. Consistent with its fiduciary duties, if shareholders vote against this proposal, the Board will reevaluate its position with respect to the retention of the supermajority voting standards. This reevaluation would include considering the percentage of shareholders voting against this proposal. An affirmative vote of not less than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote at a duly held meeting is required to amend the Certificate to remove the supermajority voting standards (or 66 23% if Vista owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors). If shareholders representing less than 50% of outstanding common stock reject this proposal, then the Board will likely not take additional steps to remove the supermajority voting standards.
If a majority of our shareholders vote against this proposal and the Board determines that the elimination of the supermajority voting standards are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, then the Board will include a proposal in the proxy statement for the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders to amend our Certificate and Bylaws to eliminate the supermajority voting standards. An amendment to the Certificate and Bylaws must first be approved by the Board and then approved by the affirmative vote of not less than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote at a duly held meeting (or 66 23% if Vista owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors) (or 66 23% if Vista owns, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors). If such amendment were approved, the Certificate and Bylaws would be amended immediately thereafter to remove the supermajority voting standards.
If shareholders representing less than 50% of outstanding common stock reject this proposal, then the Board will likely not take additional steps to remove the supermajority voting standards.
Board’s Recommendation to Shareholders
The Board regularly reviews the corporate governance policies and practices of the Company to determine whether they are appropriate and will advance the Board’s and management’s goal of maximizing long-term shareholder value. As part of that review, the Board considered whether retention of the supermajority voting standards continues to be advisable. The Board evaluated both the advantages and disadvantages of maintaining the supermajority voting standards, and determined that retaining the supermajority voting standards continues to be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders following the IPO for the following reasons:

the supermajority voting standards under our Certificate and Bylaws are appropriately limited and necessary with application only to extraordinary transactions and fundamental changes to corporate governance;

Delaware law permits supermajority voting requirements and a number of publicly-traded companies have adopted these provisions to preserve and maximize long-term value for all shareholders;

the Board believes that the supermajority vote requirements protect shareholders, particularly minority shareholders, against the potentially self-interested actions of short-term investors and, without these provisions, it would be possible for a group of short-term shareholders to approve an extraordinary transaction that is not in the best interest of the Company and opposed by nearly half of the Company’s shareholders;

these provisions mitigate the risks presented by a group of short-term shareholders, who may (i) only own their shares as of a voting record date or may have hedged their economic exposure and (ii) act in their own self-interests to the detriment of other shareholders;

these supermajority voting requirements encourage potential acquirers to deal directly with the Board, which in turn enhances the Board’s ability to consider the long-term interests of all shareholders; and

these supermajority voting requirements protect the ability of the Board to evaluate proposed offers, to consider alternatives, and to protect shareholders against abusive tactics during a takeover process.
The Board recommends that you vote, on an advisory basis, “FOR” the retention of the supermajority voting standards in our Certificate and Bylaws.

PROPOSAL 4 — APPROVAL OF JAMF 2021 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Background
We are asking shareholders to approve the Jamf 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2021 ESPP”), which the Board has approved subject to the approval of our shareholders.
We strongly believe in improving opportunities for our employees to reap the benefits of increases in our stock’s value. In addition, the ability to contribute a portion of earnings to purchase our shares, would represent a key benefit for our employee. We believe that such a program improves our ability to attract, retain and incentivize our talent, and ultimately, better aligns the interests of our employees with those of our shareholders.
Summary of the 2021 ESPP
The following general description of material features of the 2021 ESPP is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the 2021 ESPP set forth in Appendix A.
Purpose and Eligibility
The 2021 ESPP is intended to attract, retain and incentivize our employees. The 2021 ESPP is intended to have two components: a component intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code (the “423 Component”) and a component that is not intended to so qualify (the “Non-423 Component”). Except as otherwise provided, the Non-423 Component will be operated and administered in the same manner as the 423 Component, except where prohibited by law.
Our executive officers and all of our other employees will be allowed to participate in the 2021 ESPP, provided that other than for an offering under the Non-423 Component:

An employee will be eligible to participate only if he or she is customarily employed by us or any participating subsidiary for more than five months in any calendar year; and

An employee may not be granted rights to purchase shares under the 2021 ESPP if such employee (i) would immediately after such grant own shares or options to purchase shares with 5% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our capital stock, or (ii) holds rights to purchase stock under all of our “employee stock purchase plans” ​(within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code) that would accrue at a rate in excess of $25,000 in fair market value of our stock (determined at the time the rights are granted) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time.
In addition, the administrator may exclude from participation (i) any individual that has not completed at least two years of service since his or her last hire date (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the administrator in its discretion); provided that, for offerings under the 423 Component, such exclusion is applied uniformly to all employees; (ii) any employee who is not customarily employed by us or any participating subsidiary at least 20 hours per week; provided that, for offerings under the 423 Component, such exclusion is applied uniformly to all employees; (iii) any employee who is a highly compensated employee (within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code); and (iv) any employee who is a highly compensated employee (within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code) with compensation above a certain level or is an officer of the Company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act; provided that such exclusion is applied uniformly to all such highly compensated employees or officers.
Administration
The 2021 ESPP may be administered by the Board or a committee appointed by the Board, subject to applicable laws. The administrator will have full and exclusive authority to interpret the terms of the 2021 ESPP and determine eligibility, subject to the conditions of the 2021 ESPP, as described below.
Share Reserve
The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the 2021 ESPP will be equal to 3,000,000 shares. In addition, on each January 1 for the first ten calendar years after the first offering date,
 
32

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 ESPP will be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to 1% of the total number of our outstanding shares of common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 (rounded down to the nearest whole share); except that the administrator may in its sole discretion reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year. The aggregate number of shares issued over the term of the 2021 ESPP will not exceed 16,000,000 shares of common stock.
Contributions and Purchases
The 2021 ESPP will permit participants to purchase common stock through contributions (in the form of payroll deductions or otherwise to the extent permitted by the administrator) of up to 15% of their eligible compensation, which includes a participant’s regular and recurring straight time gross earnings, payments for overtime and shift premium, but excludes payments for incentive compensation, bonuses, equity compensation and other similar compensation. Subject to the eligibility requirements discussed above, a participant may purchase a maximum of 2,500 shares of common stock during each six-month offering period. The 2021 ESPP initially will have purchase periods approximately 6 months in duration commencing with the first trading day after one exercise date and ending with the next exercise date. The offering periods generally start on the first trading day on or after November 1 and May 1 of each year. The administrator may, in its discretion, modify the terms of future purchase periods and offering periods, provided that no offering period may be longer than 27 months.
Amounts contributed and accumulated by the participant during any offering period will be used to purchase shares of our common stock at the end of each six-month purchase period. The purchase price of the shares will be 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock on the first trading day of the offering period or on the last trading day of the offering period.
Withdrawal and Termination of Participation
A participant may withdraw from the 2021 ESPP voluntarily at any time by filing a notice of withdrawal prior to the close of business on the date established by the administrator. A participant will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the 2021 ESPP upon the termination of the participant’s employment for any reason or in the event the participant is no longer eligible to participate in the 2021 ESPP.
Restriction on Transfers
A participant may not transfer rights granted under the 2021 ESPP other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as otherwise provided under the 2021 ESPP.
Adjustments
In the event of certain changes in our capitalization, to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits available under the 2021 ESPP, the administrator will make adjustments, as it may deem equitable, to the number and class of shares that may be delivered, the applicable purchase price for shares, and/or the numerical share limits, pursuant to the 2021 ESPP.
Dissolution or Liquidation
In the event of our proposed liquidation or dissolution, any offering period then in progress will be shortened by setting a new exercise date, and will terminate immediately prior to such liquidation or dissolution unless otherwise determined by the administrator. The administrator will notify participants of the new exercise date in writing or electronically, at which time any participant’s purchase rights will be automatically exercised, unless the participant has earlier withdrawn from the offering period.
Certain Transactions
In the event of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction, an acquiring or successor corporation may assume or substitute each outstanding option. If the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the outstanding option, the offering period then in progress will be shortened by setting a new
 
33

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
exercise date. The administrator will notify each participant in writing or electronically that the exercise date has been changed and that the participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the new exercise date, unless the participant has already withdrawn from the offering period.
New Plan Benefits
Participation in the 2021 ESPP is voluntary and each eligible employee will make his or her own decision whether and to what extent to participate in the 2021 ESPP. It is therefore not possible to determine the benefits or amounts that will be received in the future by individual employees or groups of employees under the 2021 ESPP
Summary of Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
Section 423 Component
The following summary is intended only as a general guide to the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the 2021 ESPP under the 423 Component. The summary is based on existing U.S. laws and regulations, and there can be no assurance that those laws and regulations will not change in the future. The summary does not purport to be complete and does not discuss the tax consequences upon a participant’s death, or the provisions of the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which the participant may reside. As a result, tax consequences for any particular participant may vary based on individual circumstances.
The rights of participants to make purchases under the 2021 ESPP are intended to qualify under the provisions of Section 423 of the Code. Assuming such qualification, no income will be taxable to a participant until the sale or other disposition of shares purchased under the 2021 ESPP. Upon such sale or disposition, the participant will generally be subject to tax in an amount that depends upon the holding period of such shares prior to disposing of them.
If the shares are sold or disposed of more than two years from the first day of the offering period during which the shares were purchased and more than one year from the date of purchase, or if the participant dies while holding the shares, the participant (or his or her estate) will recognize ordinary income generally measured as the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time such sale or disposition over the purchase price of such shares or (ii) an amount equal to 15% of the fair market value of the shares on the first day of the offering period. Any additional gain will be treated as long-term capital gain. If the shares are held for at least the holding periods described above but are sold for a price that is less than the purchase price, there will be no ordinary income and the difference will be a long-term capital loss. We will not be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to the grant or exercise of a right to purchase our shares, or the sale of such shares by a participant, where such participant holds such shares for at least the holding periods described above.
Any sale or other disposition of shares before the expiration of the holding periods described above will be a “disqualifying disposition,” and the participant will recognize ordinary income generally measured as the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares are purchased over the purchase price, and we will be entitled to an income tax deduction for such ordinary income. Any additional gain or loss on such sale or disposition will be a long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period following the date the shares were purchased by the participant prior to such sale or disposition, and we will not be entitled to an income tax deduction for any such capital gain.
Non-423 Component
The following summary is intended only as a general guide to the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the 2021 ESPP under the Non-423 Component. Rights granted under the Non- 423 Component are not intended to qualify for favorable U.S. federal income tax treatment associated with rights granted under an “employee stock purchase plan” that qualifies under provisions of Section 423 of the Code. Under this component, a participant will have compensation income equal to the value of the shares at the time of purchase, less the purchase price. When a participant sells shares purchased under the ESPP, he or she also will have a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the
 
34

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
value of shares at the time of purchase. Any capital gain or loss will be short-term or long-term, depending on how long the shares have been held.
Any compensation income that a participant receives upon sale of shares that he or she purchased under the Non- 423 Component is subject to withholding for income, Medicare and social security taxes, as applicable.
Other Information
The 2021 ESPP was approved by the Board on March 29, 2021, subject to shareholder approval. If approved by our shareholders, the 2021 ESPP will be effective July 1, 2021. The administrator may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the 2021 ESPP, provided that, subject to certain exceptions described in the 2021 ESPP, no such action may adversely affect any outstanding rights to purchase stock. The 2021 ESPP will continue in effect unless earlier terminated by the administrator.
On March 29, 2021, the closing price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market of our common stock was $34.29 per share.
The Board Recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval of the 2021 ESPP.

The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2021. Services provided to the Company and its subsidiaries by Ernst & Young LLP for the year ended December 31, 2020 are described below and under “Audit Committee Report.”
Fees and Services
The following table summarizes the aggregate fees for professional audit services and other services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:
2020
2019
Audit Fees(1)
$ 1,850,890 $ 790,325
Audit-Related Fees
$ $
Tax Fees(2)
$ 154,500 $
All Other Fees(3)
$ 1,480 $ 1,710
(1)
Audit fees consist of fees and expenses for the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, the quarterly reviews of our consolidated financial statements included in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, accounting consultations, and services related to other regulatory filings made with the SEC including fees related to the IPO and secondary offering of $1,248,890 and $300,614 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
(2)
Tax fees relate to certain tax advisory services.
(3)
All other fees consist of fees for access to online research software.
In considering the nature of the services provided by the independent auditor, the Audit Committee determined that such services are compatible with the provision of independent audit services. The Audit Committee discussed these services with the independent auditor and Jamf management to determine that they are permitted under the rules and regulations concerning auditor independence promulgated by the SEC to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that requires advance approval of all audit services as well as non-audit services to the extent required by the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Unless the specific service has been previously pre-approved with respect to that year, the Audit Committee must approve the permitted service before the independent auditor is engaged to perform it. Each year, the Audit Committee will pre-approve an amount, not to exceed $20,000 per service, for audit services, audit-related services and tax services to be used by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, or a designee of the Chief Financial Officer or Chief Accounting Officers, to use for audit projects, which projects require pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee approved all services provided by Ernst & Young LLP. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and we expect that they will be available to respond to questions.
Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP requires affirmative votes from the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. If Jamf’s shareholders do not ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment and may affirm the appointment or retain another independent accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee may in the future replace Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm if it is determined that it is in Jamf’s best interests to do so.
The Audit Committee and the Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2021.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. The Audit Committee is composed of two independent directors (as defined by the Nasdaq listing guidelines) and since its formation in connection with our IPO in July 2020, met three times in 2020. Our Audit Committee operates under a written charter, which is posted on our website at ir.jamf.com/investor-relations. As provided in the Certificate, the Audit Committee’s oversight responsibilities include monitoring the integrity of our financial statements (including reviewing financial information, the systems of internal controls, the audit process, and the independence and performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm) and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. However, management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including our systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee

reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 with our management;

discussed with our independent auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC; and

received the written disclosures and the letter from the Ernst & Young LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young LLP’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP the independence of Ernst & Young LLP.
Based on the Audit Committee’s review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

JAMF HOLDING CORP.
2021 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
1.   Purpose.   The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees of the Company and its Designated Companies with an opportunity to purchase Common Stock through accumulated payroll deductions. The Company intends for the Plan to have two components: a Code Section 423 Component (“423 Component”) and a non-Code Section 423 Component (“Non-423 Component”). The Company’s intention is to have the 423 Component of the Plan qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code to the extent possible. The provisions of the 423 Component, accordingly, will be construed so as to extend and limit Plan participation in a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. In addition, this Plan authorizes the grant of an option to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Non-423 Component that does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code; such an option will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to achieve tax, non-U.S. exchange or securities laws or other objectives for Eligible Employees and the Company. Except as otherwise provided, the Non-423 Component, to the extent utilized by the Company, will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.

Where the period of leave exceeds three (3) months and the individual’s right to reemployment is not guaranteed either by statute or by contract, the employment relationship will be deemed to have terminated three (3) months and one (1) day following the commencement of such leave.

Such exclusions may be applied with respect to an Offering under a 423 Component in a manner complying with Section 423 of the Code.

If an Offering under the 423 Component is made, to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code, the terms of each Offering need not be identical provided that the terms of the Plan and an Offering together satisfy Section 423 of the Code.
(f)   “Offering Periods” means the periods of approximately six (6) months during which an option granted pursuant to the Plan may be exercised, commencing on the first Trading Day on or after May 1 and November 1 of each year and terminating on the last Trading Day on or before the May 1 and November 1, respectively, approximately six (6) months later.

(b)   Non-U.S. Employees.   Eligible Employees who are citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction (without regard to whether they also are citizens or residents of the United States or resident aliens (within the meaning of Section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code)) may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the participation of such Eligible Employees is prohibited
 
A-3

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction or if complying with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction would cause the Plan or an Offering to violate Section 423 of the Code. In the case of the Non-423 Component, an Eligible Employee may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering at the discretion of the Administrator.
(c)   423 Component Limitations.   Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, with respect to any Offering under the 423 Component, no Eligible Employee will be granted an option under the Plan (i) to the extent that, immediately after the grant, such Eligible Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own capital stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company and/or hold outstanding options to purchase such stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the capital stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) to the extent that his or her rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans (as defined in Section 423 of the Code) of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company accrues at a rate that exceeds twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the Fair Market Value of the stock at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time, as determined in accordance with Section 423 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.
4.   Offering Periods.   The Plan will be implemented by consecutive Offering Periods with a new Offering Period commencing on the first Trading Day on or after May 1 and November 1 of each year, or on such other date as the Administrator will determine. The Administrator will have the power to change the duration of Offering Periods (including the commencement dates thereof) with respect to future Offerings without stockholder approval if such change is announced prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected thereafter.
5.   Participation.
(a)   First Offering Period.   An Eligible Employee will be entitled to participate in the first Offering Period specified in Section 2(u) hereof only if such individual submits a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in a form determined by the Administrator to the Company’s designated stock administrator or completes an electronic or other enrollment procedure determined by the Administrator, in each case during such period of time as the Administrator may determine (the “Enrollment Window”). An Eligible Employee’s failure to submit the subscription agreement or complete the enrollment procedure during the Enrollment Window will result in such individual being disqualified from participation in the first Offering Period under the Plan.
(b)   Subsequent Offering Periods.   An Eligible Employee may participate in the Plan in any Offering Period following the first Offering Period by (i) submitting to the Company’s stock administrator (or its designee), on or before a date prescribed by the Administrator prior to an applicable Enrollment Date, a properly completed subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the form provided by the Administrator for such purpose, or (ii) completing an electronic or other enrollment procedure determined by the Administrator, in each case during the applicable Enrollment Window. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, a Participant’s subscription agreement and the designated rate of payroll deduction by a Participant shall continue for future Offering Periods unless the Participant changes or cancels, in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator, prior to the Enrollment Date with respect to a future Offering Period or elects to withdraw from the Plan in accordance with Section 10 hereof.
6.   Payroll Deductions.
(a)   At the time a Participant enrolls in the Plan pursuant to Section 5 hereof, he or she will elect to have payroll deductions made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding fifteen percent (15%) of the Compensation which he or she receives on each pay day during the Offering Period; provided, however, that should a pay day occur on an Exercise Date, a Participant will have the payroll deductions made on such day applied to his or her account under the subsequent Offering Period. A Participant’s subscription agreement will remain in effect for successive Offering Periods unless terminated as provided in Section 10 hereof.
 
A-4

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
(b)   Payroll deductions for a Participant will commence on the first pay day following the Enrollment Date and will end on the last pay day prior to the Exercise Date of such Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10 hereof; provided, however, that for the first Offering Period, payroll deductions will commence on the first pay day on or following the later of (i) the end of the Enrollment Window, or (ii) the Enrollment Date of the first Offering Period.
(c)   All payroll deductions made for a Participant will be credited to his or her account under the Plan and will be withheld in whole percentages only. A Participant may not make any additional payments into such account.
(d)   A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof. If permitted by the Administrator, as determined in its sole discretion, during a Purchase Period, a Participant may increase or decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions during the Purchase Period by (i) properly completing and submitting to the Company’s stock administrator (or its designee), on or before a date prescribed by the Administrator prior to an applicable Exercise Date, a new subscription agreement authorizing the change in payroll deduction rate in the form provided by the Administrator for such purpose, or (ii) completing an electronic or other procedure prescribed by the Administrator. If a Participant has not followed such procedures to change the rate of payroll deductions, the rate of his or her payroll deductions will continue at the originally elected rate throughout the Purchase Period and future Offering Periods and Purchase Periods (unless terminated as provided in Section 10 hereof). The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, limit the nature and/or number of payroll deduction rate changes that may be made by Participants during any Offering Period or Purchase Period. Any change in payroll deduction rate made pursuant to this Section 6(d) will be effective as of the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the date on which the change is made by the Participant (unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion, elects to process a given change in payroll deduction rate more quickly).
(e)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(c) hereof, a Participant’s payroll deductions may be decreased to zero percent (0%) by the Administrator at any time during a Purchase Period. To the extent necessary, and subject to Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, payroll deductions will recommence at the rate originally elected by the Participant effective as of the beginning of the first Purchase Period scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10.
(f)   Notwithstanding any provisions or limits to the contrary in the Plan, the Administrator may allow Eligible Employees to participate in the Plan via cash contributions or other methods instead of payroll deductions if (i) payroll deductions are not permitted under applicable local law, (ii) the Administrator determines that cash contributions are permissible under Section 423 of the Code or (iii) for Participants participating in the Non-423 Component.
(g)   At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs), the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s or Employer’s federal, state, local or any other tax liability payable to any authority including taxes imposed by jurisdictions outside of the U.S., national insurance, social security or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Stock (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs). At any time, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company or the Employer to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company or the Employer any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Common Stock by the Eligible Employee. In addition, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the proceeds of the sale of Common Stock or any other method of withholding the Company or the Employer deems appropriate to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code.
7.   Grant of Option.   On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period will be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during

such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price) up to a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such Eligible Employee’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Eligible Employee’s account as of the Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided that in no event will an Eligible Employee be permitted to purchase under the Plan during each Purchase Period more than 2,500 shares of Common Stock (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19 hereof) and provided further that such purchase will be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(c) and 13 hereof. The Eligible Employee may accept the grant of such option in accordance with the requirements of Section 5 hereof. The Administrator may, for future Offering Periods, increase or decrease, in its absolute discretion, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that an Eligible Employee may purchase during each Purchase Period. Exercise of the option will occur as provided in Section 8 hereof, unless the Participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10 hereof. The option will expire on the last day of the Offering Period.
8.   Exercise of Option.
(a)   Unless a Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof, his or her option for the purchase of shares of Common Stock will be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to the option will be purchased for such Participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be purchased; any payroll deductions accumulated in a Participant’s account, which are not sufficient to purchase a full share will be retained in the Participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, as applicable, subject to earlier withdrawal by the Participant as provided in Section 10. Any other funds left over in a Participant’s account after the Exercise Date will be returned to the Participant. During a Participant’s lifetime, a Participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her.
(b)   If the Administrator determines that, on a given Exercise Date, the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that were available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock available for sale under the Plan on such Exercise Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (x) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all Participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and continue all Offering Periods then in effect or (y) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 20 hereof. The Company may make a pro rata allocation of the shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date.
9.   Delivery.   As soon as reasonably practicable after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of shares of Common Stock occurs, the Company will arrange the delivery to each Participant of the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option in a form determined by the Administrator (in its sole discretion) and pursuant to rules established by the Administrator. The Company may permit or require that shares be deposited directly with a broker designated by the Company or with a trustee or designated agent of the Company, and the Company may utilize electronic or automated methods of share transfer. The Company may require that shares be retained with such broker, trustee, or agent for a designated period of time and/or may establish other procedures to permit tracking of disqualifying dispositions or other dispositions of such shares. No Participant will have any voting, dividend, or other stockholder rights with respect to shares of Common Stock subject to any option granted under the Plan until such shares have been purchased and delivered to the Participant as provided in this Section 9.
10.   Withdrawal.
 
A-6

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
(a)   A Participant may withdraw all but not less than all the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time by (i) submitting to the Company’s stock administrator (or its designee) a written notice of withdrawal in the form determined by the Administrator for such purpose, or (ii) completing an electronic or other withdrawal procedure determined by the Administrator. The Administrator may set forth a deadline of when a withdrawal must occur to be effective prior to a given Exercise Date in accordance with policies it may approve from time to time. All of the Participant’s payroll deductions credited to his or her account will be paid to such Participant promptly after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such Participant’s option for the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made for such Offering Period. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions will not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering Period, unless the Participant re-enrolls in the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 hereof.
(b)   A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws.
11.   Termination of Employment.   Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee for any reason, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period but not yet used to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan will be returned to such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 15 hereof, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator in a manner that, with respect to an Offering under the 423 Component, is permitted by, and compliant with, Section 423 of the Code, a Participant whose employment transfers between entities through a termination with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by the Company or a Designated Company shall not be treated as terminated under the Plan; however, no Participant shall be deemed to switch from an Offering under the Non-423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component or vice versa unless (and then only to the extent) such switch would not cause the 423 Component or any option thereunder to fail to comply with Section 423 of the Code.
12.   Interest.   No interest will accrue on the payroll deductions of a participant in the Plan, except as may be required by Applicable Law, as determined by the Company, and if so required by the laws of a particular jurisdiction, shall, with respect to Offerings under the 423 Component, apply to all Participants in the relevant Offering, except to the extent otherwise permitted by Section 423 of the Code.
13.   Stock.
(a)   Subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 19 hereof, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that will be made available for sale under the Plan will be equal to three million (3,000,000) shares of Common Stock. In addition, on each January 1 for the first ten (10) calendar years after the first Offering Date, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan will be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the immediately preceding December 31 ( rounded down to the nearest whole share); provided, that the Administrator may in its sole discretion reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year; and, provided further , that the aggregate number of shares issued pursuant to the 423 Component over the term of this Plan will not exceed sixteen million (16,000,000) shares of Common Stock.
(b)   Until the shares of Common Stock are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), a Participant will only have the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such shares, and no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to such shares.
(c)   Shares of Common Stock to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse.
14.   Administration.   The Plan will be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee will be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws. To the extent permitted by
 
A-7

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Applicable Laws, the Administrator will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to delegate ministerial duties to any of the Company’s employees, to designate separate Offerings under the Plan, to designate Subsidiaries and Affiliates as participating in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component, to determine eligibility, to adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the Plan and to establish such procedures that it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan (including, without limitation, to adopt such procedures, sub-plans, and appendices to the subscription agreement as are necessary or appropriate to permit the participation in the Plan by employees who are non-U.S. nationals or employed outside the U.S., the terms of which sub-plans and appendices may take precedence over other provisions of this Plan, with the exception of Section 13(a) hereof, but unless otherwise superseded by the terms of such sub-plan or appendix, the provisions of this Plan shall govern the operation of such sub-plan or appendix). Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the employees eligible to participate in each sub-plan will participate in a separate Offering under the 423 Component, or if the terms would not qualify under the 423 Component, in the Non-423 Component, in either case unless such designation would cause the 423 Component to violate the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding eligibility to participate, the definition of Compensation, handling of payroll deductions, making of contributions to the Plan (including, without limitation, in forms other than payroll deductions), establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold payroll deductions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax, determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates that vary with applicable local requirements. The Administrator also is authorized to determine that, to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code, the terms of an option granted under the Plan or an Offering to citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction will be less favorable than the terms of options granted under the Plan or the same Offering to employees resident solely in the U.S. Every finding, decision and determination made by the Administrator will, to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties.
15.   Designation of Beneficiary.
(a)   If permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares of Common Stock and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, if permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the option. If a Participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent will be required for such designation to be effective.
(b)   Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by notice in a form determined by the Administrator. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company will deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.
(c)   All beneficiary designations will be in such form and manner as the Administrator may designate from time to time. Notwithstanding Sections 15(a) and (b) above, the Company and/or the Administrator may decide not to permit such designations by Participants in non-U.S. jurisdictions to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code.
16.   Transferability.   Neither payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares of Common Stock under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition will be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof.

17.   Use of Funds.   The Company may use all payroll deductions received or held by it under the Plan for any corporate purpose, and the Company will not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions except under Offerings or for Participants in the Non-423 Component for which Applicable Laws require that contributions to the Plan by Participants be segregated from the Company’s or the Employer’s general corporate funds and/or deposited with an independent third party, provided that, if such segregation or deposit with an independent third party is required by Applicable Laws, it will apply to all Participants in the relevant Offering under the 423 Component, except to the extent otherwise permitted by Section 423 of the Code. Until shares of Common Stock are issued, Participants will only have the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such shares.
18.   Reports.   Individual accounts will be maintained for each Participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Eligible Employees at least annually, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Common Stock purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.
19.   Adjustments, Dissolution, Liquidation, Certain Transactions.
(a)   Adjustments.   In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number and class of Common Stock that may be delivered under the Plan, the Purchase Price per share, and the class and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan that has not yet been exercised, and the numerical limits of Sections 6 and 13 hereof.
(b)   Dissolution or Liquidation.   In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any Offering Period then in progress will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date, and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator. The New Exercise Date will be before the date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically, prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.
(c)   Certain Transactions.   In the event of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction directly or indirectly involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the acquiring or successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the acquiring or successor corporation. In the event that the acquiring or successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the option, the Offering Period with respect to which such option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such Offering Period shall end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the proposed transaction. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.
20.   Amendment or Termination.
(a)   The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. If the Plan is terminated, the Administrator, in its discretion, may elect to terminate all outstanding Offering Periods either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of shares of Common Stock on the next Exercise Date (which may be sooner than originally scheduled, if determined by the Administrator in its discretion), or may elect to permit Offering

Periods to expire in accordance with their terms (and subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19). If the Offering Periods are terminated prior to expiration, all amounts then credited to Participants’ accounts that have not been used to purchase shares of Common Stock will be returned to the Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under Applicable Laws, as further set forth in Section 12 hereof) as soon as administratively practicable.
(b)   Without stockholder consent and without limiting Section 20(a) above, the Administrator will be entitled to change the Offering Periods or Purchase Periods, designate separate Offerings, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange rate applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed withholding elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable that are consistent with the Plan.
(c)   In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence, including, but not limited to:
(i)   amending the Plan to conform with the safe harbor definition under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor thereto), including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time;
(ii)   altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period or Purchase Period including an Offering Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price, but, with respect to any existing Offerings under the 423 Component, in no event below the lowest Purchase Price permitted by Section 423 of the Code;
(iii)   shortening any Offering Period by setting a New Exercise Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Administrator action;
(iv)   reducing the maximum percentage of Compensation a Participant may elect to set aside as payroll deductions; and
(v)   reducing the maximum number of shares of Common Stock a Participant may purchase during any Offering Period.
Such modifications or amendments will not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Plan Participants.
21.   Notices.   All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan will be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form and manner specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.
22.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.   Shares of Common Stock will not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto will comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.
As a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require the person exercising such option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the aforementioned applicable provisions of law.

23.   Code Section 409A.   The 423 Component of the Plan is intended to be exempt from the application of Code Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(ii) and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so be exempt from Code Section 409A. To the extent the options granted under the Non-423 Component are subject to U.S. taxation, the Non-423 Component is intended to be exempt from the application of Code Section 409A as options granted thereunder are intended to constitute “short term deferrals” and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted such that those options shall so be exempt from Code Section 409A. In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that an option granted under the Plan may be subject to Code Section 409A or that any provision in the Plan would cause an option under the Plan to be subject to Code Section 409A, the Administrator may amend the terms of the Plan and/or of an outstanding option granted under the Plan, or take such other action the Administrator determines is necessary or appropriate, in each case, without the Participant’s consent, to exempt any outstanding option or future option that may be granted under the Plan from or to allow any such options to comply with Code Section 409A, but only to the extent any such amendments or action by the Administrator would not violate Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and any of its Parent or Subsidiaries shall have no liability to a Participant or any other party if the option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Code Section 409A is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Administrator with respect thereto. The Company and any of its Parent or Subsidiaries makes no representation that the option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan is compliant with Code Section 409A.
24.   Term of Plan.   The Plan will become effective as of the Effective Date, and will continue in effect, unless earlier terminated under Section 20 hereof.
25.   Governing Law.   The Plan shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (except its choice-of-law provisions).
26.   No Right to Employment.   Participation in the Plan by a Participant shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained as an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable. Furthermore, the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate may dismiss a Participant from employment at any time, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan.
27.   Severability.   If any provision of the Plan is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason in any jurisdiction or as to any Participant, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as to such jurisdiction or Participant as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not been included.
28.   Compliance with Applicable Laws.   The terms of this Plan are intended to comply with all Applicable Laws and will be construed accordingly.
