In connection with the pending acquisition of Twitter, Inc. (“Twitter”) by an affiliate of Elon Musk, Sean Edgett, Twitter’s General Counsel, sent the following email to Twitter employees:

Team,

Today, we filed a definitive proxy statement in connection with the Special Meeting of Stockholders to approve the proposed acquisition of Twitter by affiliates of Elon Musk. The Twitter Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote in favor of the transaction (“FOR”).

The meeting is scheduled for September 13, 2022 at 10am PT. Anyone who owns TWTR stock (including Tweeps) as of July 22, 2022 is entitled to vote prior to or during the meeting.

What’s next?

Each stockholder will receive voting materials in the very near future. Please keep an eye on your email (if you had previously consented to email delivery) or on your mailbox. In the next several days, we will also circulate specific instructions for those of you who hold your shares at Schwab. Once Schwab confirms its voting platform is live, you will have another voting option by being able to log in through your Schwab account. We encourage you to vote as early as possible.

We have asked Innisfree, our proxy solicitor, to work with us to ensure our shareholders are educated about this important proposal, so you will likely receive more communications from them over the coming weeks via email, phone call and traditional mail. If you have any questions, please call Innisfree at [phone] (US/Canada) or [phone] (all other countries).

Thank you,

Sean
