Dear Fellow Stockholder:
2025 was a transformative year for Amwell as we executed against our strategic priorities with discipline and focus. Our mission to transform healthcare through technology has never been more relevant, and I am pleased to report significant progress toward our goal of achieving positive cash flow from operations in 2026.
Strategic Progress and Operational Excellence
This year marked a fundamental shift in our business model as we successfully transitioned to a tech-enabled care platform. We increased our mix of subscription software revenues while systematically improving our operational efficiency across all functions. Our net loss improved by over 55%, demonstrating the effectiveness of our cost reduction initiatives and margin expansion efforts.
Our partnership with the U.S. Defense Health Agency (DHA) represents a cornerstone achievement. During 2025, we successfully deployed our SaaS platform to power the DHA Digital First initiatives. Virtual visits have ramped steadily since going live on our platform, and provider and patient satisfaction remains very high. While budget restrictions led to the exclusion of our behavioral health and automated care programs from the 2026 contract extension, we remain confident in the clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of these solutions and believe they strongly support future enterprise-wide adoption.
Below are a few 2025 financial highlights:
Market Dynamics and Competitive Positioning
The healthcare landscape continues to evolve in ways that favor our integrated platform approach. Consumer demand for digital health is accelerating, with mental health telehealth utilization reaching nearly 30% and a vast majority of Gen Z using health technology monthly. Digital disease management solutions are demonstrating measurable results, including 50% reductions in 30-day readmission rates in some cases.
However, the market faces significant fragmentation challenges. Employers now manage an average of four to nine point solutions, not to mention the increased complexity and cost associated with inefficient data exchange. As a result, more than half of health plan leaders have identified integrated solutions as a top 2025 priority.
The Amwell platform addresses this critical gap by providing one relationship, one user experience, and one data and reporting infrastructure across a dynamic array of clinical programs and vendors. Unlike competitors who feature their own brands, we enable customers to offer white-labeled experiences, allowing them to maintain their brand identity while accessing our comprehensive platform capabilities. Our unique business model never forces clients to use only Amwell clinical programs, aligning our interests with theirs as long-term partners.
Innovation and Focus
Our commitment is to develop automation tools that empower clients to do more faster while reducing our own deployment costs. We are decisively divesting non-core assets, including the sale of our Amwell Psychiatric Care business, to focus resources on our core platform offering. We continue to fully support legacy assets that provide value to customers, with the expectation that they will migrate to our core offering over time when ready.
Looking Ahead
As we enter 2026, we remain focused on executing our plan to achieve operating cash flow breakeven by year-end. Our strategy centers on two main work streams: leveraging our enterprise-grade, differentiated platform to generate value in select market segments, and ensuring all operations are extremely efficient and effective.
The integration of AI across healthcare represents the most significant catalyst for the evolution of tech-enabled care. Our ability to supplement automated programs with trusted in-network certified providers at scale enables the safe and effective adoption of AI-driven solutions. This architecture helps customers improve acquisition costs, enhance brand value, and achieve better outcomes through our tools for matching programs with appropriate cohorts.
We believe our competitive advantages will become increasingly visible and compelling as we continue deploying our new Amwell platform. Our long journey is in many ways only beginning, and we are excited about the future we are building for our customers, our company, and you, our valued shareholders.
You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Amwell, to be held Tuesday, June 16, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. eastern time via the following link: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/AMWL2026. We plan to post details of this virtual meeting on our investor relations website at https://investors.amwell.com. We encourage you to check this website prior to the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders if you plan to attend.
Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, I encourage you to review the enclosed information and vote your shares. Thank you for your continuing interest in Amwell. We value your ongoing support and we are committed to delivering transformative solutions in healthcare, and to creating sustainable long-term value for our stockholders.
Sincerely,

Ido Schoenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
AMERICAN WELL CORPORATION

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING
Why am I receiving this Proxy Statement?
You are receiving a Proxy Statement because you owned shares of American Well common stock at the close of business on April 17, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting, which entitles you to vote at the Annual Meeting.
What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?
At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following matters:
We will also consider and act upon any other matters that properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.
Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?
In accordance with rules adopted by the SEC, we are permitted to furnish proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report, to our stockholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the full proxy materials. Instead, the Notice, which was mailed to our stockholders, will instruct you as to how you may access and review all of the proxy materials on the Internet. If you would like to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice.
1
When is the record date for the Annual Meeting?
The record date for the meeting is April 17, 2026. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date are entitled to vote at the meeting. At the close of business on the record date, there were 15,061,188 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, 1,369,518 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and 277,777 shares of Class C common stock outstanding.
To how many votes am I entitled?
Each share of Class A and Class C common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters presented for a vote, except that Class C common stock will not have the right to vote for elections of directors. Holders of Class B common stock are collectively entitled to a number of votes equal to the product of (x) 1.0408163 and (y) the total number of votes that would be cast by the holders of the Class A and Class C common stock, resulting in the Class B common stock collectively holding 51% of the voting power of all outstanding securities. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to a number of votes equal to the total number of votes held by all Class B common stock divided by the total number of then outstanding shares of Class B common stock. Shares of Class B common stock are held by our co-founders, Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Dr. Roy Schoenberg, who have agreed to vote together as a group.
What is the difference between being a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner?
Many of our stockholders hold their shares through stockbrokers, banks, or other nominees, rather than directly in their own names. As summarized below, there are some differences between being a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner.
Stockholder of record: If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., you are the stockholder of record, and proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals named on the proxy card and to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Beneficial owner: If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee, who is considered to be the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to tell your nominee how to vote, and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee authorizing you to do so. Follow the instructions during the registration process for the Annual Meeting.
Your nominee has sent you instructions on how to direct the nominee’s vote in advance of the meeting through the voting instruction card. You may vote by following those instructions.
I share an address with another stockholder. What do I do if we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials and want additional copies, or we received multiple copies and want only one?
The proxy rules of the SEC permit companies and intermediaries, such as brokers and banks, to satisfy proxy statement delivery requirements for two or more stockholders sharing an address by delivering one proxy statement to those stockholders. This procedure is known as “householding.” Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, the other proxy materials to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these materials. To receive a separate copy, stockholders of record may contact Anna Nesterova, Head of Legal, American Well Corporation, 75 State Street, Ste 100, Boston, MA 02109, or by calling (617) 204-3500 or by emailing [email protected]. Beneficial holders may contact their bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee to request information about householding.
Conversely, if stockholders of record living at the same address received multiple copies of our Notice and, if applicable, and the other proxy materials, you may request delivery of a single copy by contacting Anna Nesterova as set forth above. Beneficial holders may contact their bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee to request a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, the other proxy materials.
How can I vote my shares in advance of the online meeting?
Whether you hold shares directly as the stockholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct how your shares are voted without attending the online meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by proxy. You can vote by proxy over the Internet or telephone by following the instructions provided in the Notice, or, if you requested to receive printed proxy

materials, you can also vote by mail pursuant to instructions provided on the proxy card. If you hold shares beneficially in street name, you may also vote by proxy over the Internet or telephone, or, if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, you can also vote by mail by following the voting instruction card provided to you by your broker, bank or nominee.
Can I revoke my proxy and change my vote?
You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by notifying the Head of Legal in writing, by returning a signed proxy with a later date, by transmitting a subsequent vote over the Internet or by telephone prior to the close of the Internet voting facility or the telephone voting facility, or by attending the meeting and voting in person. If your stock is held in street name, you must contact your broker or nominee for instructions as to how to change your vote.
How is a quorum reached?
The presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the total voting power of all outstanding securities generally entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for the transaction of business at the meeting.
How can I vote my shares during the online meeting?
The Company will be hosting the Annual Meeting live online. After registration and receiving the links, you can attend the Annual Meeting live online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/AMWL2026. The webcast will start at 12:00 p.m. eastern time. You may vote while attending the meeting online.
Shares held in your name as the stockholder of record may be voted by you, while the polls remain open, at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/AMWL2026 during the meeting. You will need your control number found in the Notice or proxy card. Shares held beneficially in street name may be voted by you at the meeting only if you obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank, trustee or nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares. Even if you plan to attend the online meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the online meeting.
How does the Board recommend I vote on the proposals?
The Board recommends that you vote:
How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting and who is paying for such solicitation?
Our Board of Directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting by means of the proxy materials. We will bear the entire cost of proxy solicitation. Copies of proxy materials will also be made available upon request to brokers, banks and other nominees to forward to the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such brokers, banks or other nominees. The original solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by solicitation by telephone, electronic communication, or other means by our directors, officers, employees or agents. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services, although we may reimburse such individuals for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation. We do not plan to retain a proxy solicitor to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

What vote is required to approve each proposal and how are votes counted?
Proposal 1—Election of Directors |
The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Class C common stock do not have the right to vote on the election of directors. Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this proposal. |
|
|
Proposal 2—Ratifying the Appointment of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
The ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP requires the affirmative vote of holders of a plurality of the votes of all classes of stock outstanding cast at the Annual Meeting on the proposal. Withhold votes will have no effect on the results of this proposal. This is a “routine” matter and, as a result, we do not expect there will be any broker non-votes on this proposal. |
|
|
Proposal 3—Approving, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers. |
The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of holders of a plurality of the votes of all classes of stock outstanding cast at the Annual Meeting on the proposal. Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this vote. |
How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?
Final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K that will be filed within four business days after the Annual Meeting.
Who should I call if I have any additional questions?
If you hold your shares directly, please call Anna Nesterova, Head of Legal of the Company, at (617) 204-3500. If your shares are held in street name, please contact the telephone number provided on your voting instruction form or contact your broker or nominee holder directly.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Our Board of Directors is currently composed of 9 members. In accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our Board of Directors is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. One class is elected each year at the annual meeting of stockholders for a term of three years. At the Annual Meeting, two Class III directors will be elected for a three-year term. Dr. Peter Slavin will not seek re-election at the Annual Meeting. As a result, following the Annual Meeting our Board of Directors will be composed of 8 members. Each director’s term continues until the election and qualification of such director’s successor, or such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.
Nominees
Our Board of Directors has nominated Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Dr. Roy Schoenberg for election as Class III directors at the Annual Meeting. If elected, each of Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Dr. Roy Schoenberg will serve as Class III directors until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are elected and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal. Each of the nominees is currently a director of the Company. For information concerning the nominees, see the section titled “Corporate Governance and Board of Directors.”
Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Dr. Roy Schoenberg have each consented to being named as a nominee for director and agreed to continue to serve if elected; however, in the event that a director nominee is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for any nominee who shall be designated by our Board of Directors to fill such vacancy or our Board of Directors may reduce its size.
Vote Required
The election of Class III directors requires a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Accordingly, the two nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this proposal.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE TWO DIRECTORS NOMINATED BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND NAMED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT AS CLASS III DIRECTORS TO SERVE FOR A THREE-YEAR TERM.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Code of Ethics and Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our Board has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors. The full text of our code of business conduct and ethics is posted on the investor relations section of our website at https://investors.amwell.com/governance/governance-documents/default.aspx. We intend to disclose future amendments to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and any waivers of such Code, on our website or in public filings.
In addition, our Board has adopted corporate governance guidelines for our company. The full text of our corporate governance guidelines are posted on the investor relations section of our website at https://investors.amwell.com/governance/governance-documents/default.aspx.
Corporate Responsibility Initiatives
Our values are core to who we are and serve as the foundation on which we are able to build a strong organization and promote the long-term interests of our stockholders and stakeholders.
We have made meaningful progress on our corporate responsibility goals and reported on this progress in our 2025 Corporate Responsibility Report. Following the publication of our inaugural report in 2022 and annually thereafter, we reached out to our top stakeholders who validated our approach to corporate responsibility, which is focused on establishing goals and achieving incremental improvement year over year. Our corporate responsibility taskforce, made up of subject matter experts from across the Amwell HR, Legal, and Investor Relations teams, as well as outside consultants and working with oversight from our Board, steadily advanced our comprehensive corporate responsibility strategy connected to our strategic business initiatives. Our published framework is available on the investor relations page of our website.
Our commitment to viewing our business through a corporate responsibility lens is strong and we continue to be guided by three pillars: Our People, Our Products and Our Operations.
Our Corporate Responsibility Framework:
Our Products |
Operational efficiencies: Our clients care about improving outcomes, health access and efficiency. Our solution is designed to enable and empower our clients’ operational goals Environmental stewardship: The cloud-based, multi-tenant architecture of the Amwell platform reduces the overall energy footprint of our installed client base, contributing to lowering the overall environmental impact of the delivery of healthcare. Clinician shortages and burnout: Personnel shortages and care team burnout are all too common in the healthcare field. This is why we’re focused on enabling our clients to leverage technology to unify and augment care team resources and drive new efficient workflows to achieve sought after efficiencies so that teams can focus on the delivery of care. Our unique automated care programs augment care teams and reduce their administrative burden, enabling them to practice at the top of their license. Patient experience and outcomes: Our platform is fast, seamless and easy to use, addressing several of the biggest barriers to digital healthcare adoption and patient and provider experiences. With our platform as the digital infrastructure foundation, our customers can deliver a seamless patient experience, one that is electronically unified across all care settings and patient connections. Our platform is designed to connect care teams to the information they need, helping them coordinate consultations, accelerate next steps, and deliver better outcomes. Expanding access to care: We empower our customers to transform the healthcare experience and better meet the needs of providers and patients by being wherever they are, regardless of the care modality required. We do this by using technology to remove distance barriers between patients and healthcare practitioners to address the lack of access to quality care that millions of patients experience. Through our solutions, services, and partnerships, we support health outcomes that rise above some of the challenges caused by the social determinants of health as we work to improve outcomes for all. |
Our People |
Talent Development and Engagement: Our talented team members devote themselves to serving our mission. We do the same for them by creating programs that expand their capabilities, supporting their growth and development, promoting their wellbeing, and encouraging them to use their voices to drive positive business outcomes.
Total Rewards & Wellbeing: We believe enabling best-in-class healthcare starts from within, and invest heavily in the total wellbeing of our employees. We provide a comprehensive and competitive total rewards framework that in grounded in our mission and flexible to meet the needs of our employees. |
6
Recruitment: We are committed to sourcing and developing the best talent. We conduct merit based selection and unbiased assessments and work to ensure our teams are as unique as the clients and patients we serve.
Belonging & Inclusion: We believe in fostering an inclusive culture where everyone feels valued, respected and empowered to be their authentic selves.
Social Responsibility: We are enriching and giving back to our communities through our corporate social responsibility initiative, Amwell Cares. We do this through a variety of activities, as well as delivering pro bono healthcare services to communities affected by humanitarian crisis. We work with our clients to extend our impact and employees are also provided a day to volunteer on their own each year. |
Our Operations |
Cybersecurity and Data Privacy: As an integral member of the healthcare ecosystem, trust is an imperative. We build that trust by prioritizing the safety and security of all data and personal health information. Our cybersecurity program is designed to align with industry best practices and provide a framework for handling cybersecurity threats and incidents, including threats and incidents associated with third-party service providers. Our security-focused culture is reinforced by ongoing mandatory training and awareness-building activities.
Compliance and Ethics: Our business sits at the intersection of technology and healthcare, which means that compliance and ethics are paramount to our credibility. Our organization has significant people, controls, and processes in place to maintain compliance and support integrity at every turn. |
Stockholder Engagement
We value stockholder engagement and strive for regular communication with our stockholders throughout the year. In addition to engaging with stockholders through our quarterly earnings calls, we routinely participate in direct investor meetings and investment community conferences.
Governance
Our company was founded by industry veterans, and their passion, energy and expertise have contributed to our success as a leading digital care delivery enablement platform in the United States and globally, connecting and enabling providers, insurers, patients, and innovators to deliver greater access to more affordable, higher quality care.
Our management team is governed by our Board, which works alongside them to determine our business strategy, ensure the sustainable growth of the company, and oversee our enterprise risks and opportunities and corporate responsibility initiatives. Our Board currently consists of nine directors, of whom 22% are women, 78% are independent and 33% are military veterans. Our Board brings a plethora of perspectives, experience and backgrounds to their role of monitoring and advising management.
Board of Directors and Committees
Our directors are divided into three classes of directors, with the classes as nearly equal in number as possible. Each of our directors identified below serves in the class indicated. Subject to any earlier resignation, death or removal in accordance with the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, our Class III directors, if elected at the Annual Meeting, will serve until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders, our Class I directors will serve until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and our Class II directors will serve until the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders.
Below is a list of the names, ages as of March 31, 2026 and classification of the individuals who currently serve as our directors, other than Dr. Peter Slavin who, as previously disclosed, will not seek re-election at the Annual Meeting.

Board Skills Matrix
Our Board believes that it should be a body with a mix of viewpoints, skills, and experience in order to ensure effective oversight of our business. As such, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and our Board as a whole are focused on ensuring that a wide range of experience, qualifications, attributes, skills, and perspectives are represented on our Board.
The Board believes that each director has valuable individual competencies and backgrounds that, taken together, provide the tools necessary to offer thoughtful and engaging oversight of our business. As indicated in the directors’ biographies, our directors have exhibited significant leadership skills and extensive experience in fields which the Board believes provides valuable knowledge regarding critical elements of our business. Specifically, our Directors have extensive operational expertise in the healthcare sector and strategy & M&A; three members of the Audit Committee are “Audit Committee Financial Experts” per SEC rules; and half of our directors are experts in corporate governance and fiduciary duties as evidenced by past and present participation on the Board of Directors of other entities.
The following matrix identifies the primary experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of each of our directors. This matrix does not encompass all the experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of our directors, and the fact that a particular experience, qualification, attribute or skill is not listed does not mean that a director does not possess it.

Director Independence
Under the NYSE listing standards, no director qualifies as “independent” unless the Board affirmatively determines that the director has “no material relationship” with the listed company, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company.
Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Our Board has determined that Stephen Schlegel, Derek Ross, Dr. Toby Cosgrove, Rob Webb, Deborah Jackson and Rivka Goldwasser do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under applicable NYSE rules. In addition, our Board determined that Dr. Peter Slavin, who will continue to serve as a director until the Annual Meeting, does not have any relationship that interfered with his exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that he is “independent” as that term is defined under applicable NYSE rules. In making these determinations, our Board considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances our Board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described in the section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions.”
Relationships
Drs. Ido and Roy Schoenberg are siblings, and Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Phyllis Gotlib are married to each other.
10
Board Leadership Structure
Dr. Ido Schoenberg serves as both the Chairman of our Board and Chief Executive Officer. We do not have a lead independent director. Our Board believes that the current board leadership structure, coupled with a strong emphasis on board independence (with all directors other than Drs. Ido and Roy Schoenberg being independent under NYSE rules), provides effective independent oversight of management and risk management processes while allowing our Board and management to benefit from Dr. Ido Schoenberg’s extensive executive leadership and operational experience.
Our Board has concluded that our current leadership structure is appropriate at this time. However, our Board will continue to periodically review our leadership structure and may make such changes in the future as it deems appropriate.
Attendance at Board and Annual Meetings
During 2025, our Board had 6 meetings, our Audit Committee had 4 meetings, our Compensation Committee had 4 meetings, and our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee had 2 meetings. In addition to regularly scheduled and special meetings, the Board and its committees routinely hold informal discussions and perform certain actions by written consent. Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board held during the period for which he or she served as a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board on which such director served (held during the period of such director’s committee service). Our non-employee directors, all of whom are independent directors, meet in regularly scheduled executive session, typically after a scheduled Board meeting. Our Board has not formally selected a director to preside over either our executive sessions of non-employee directors. Instead, the participating directors designate a presiding director for the session.
Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our Board at annual meetings of stockholders, we encourage our directors to attend such meetings. All of our directors attended our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.
Board Committees
Our Board has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which have the composition and responsibilities described below. Our Board may establish other committees to facilitate the management of our business. Copies of the charters of our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are available via our investor relations website (investors.amwell.com/governance/governance-documents/default.aspx). Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board.
The following table sets forth the standing committees of our Board and the members of each such committee as of December 31, 2025, other than Dr. Peter Slavin who, as previously disclosed, will not seek re-election at the Annual Meeting:

Audit Committee
Each member of the Audit Committee meets the requirements for independence under NYSE listing standards and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Each member of our Audit Committee is financially literate. In addition, our Board has determined that each of Derek Ross, Rivka Goldwasser and Rob Webb is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. This designation does not impose on our audit committee financial expert any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than are generally imposed on members of our Audit Committee and our Board. Our Audit Committee is directly responsible for, among other things:
11
Compensation Committee
Each member of the Compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under NYSE listing standards and Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and is a non-employee director, as defined by Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things:
The Compensation Committee may delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees or the chair of the Committee and has delegated to our Chief Executive Officer the authority to make grants of equity awards to individuals who are not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, pursuant to its Delegation Policy.
For a description of the role of our executive officers and independent compensation consultant in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive and director compensation, see “Director Compensation” and “Executive Compensation.”
Nominating and Governance Committee
Each member of the Nominating and Governance Committee meets the requirements for independence under NYSE listing standards. Our nominating and governance committee is responsible for, among other things:
Role of the Board in Risk Oversight
One of the key functions of our Board is informed oversight of our risk management process. Such risks include, among others, strategic, financial, business and operational, cybersecurity, legal and regulatory compliance, and reputational risks. Our Board administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through its standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic
12
risk exposure. Our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and discussing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. In addition to oversight of the performance of our external auditors, our Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, cybersecurity and reviews related party transactions. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Each committee regularly provides updates and reports to the Board.
Hedging and Pledging Policy
Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our directors, officers and employees from engaging in transactions that are designed to hedge or speculate on any change in the market value of our equity securities and prohibits our directors, officers and employees from pledging our securities in any circumstance.
Insider Trading Policy
We maintain
Director Nomination Process
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee uses a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating potential director candidates. In its evaluation of such candidates, including the current directors eligible for re-election, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the current size of our Board, the expertise of our current directors and the needs of our business going forward.
Some of the qualifications that our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers include, without limitation, experience of particular relevance to us and the Board, accomplishments, superior credentials, independence, area of expertise, diverse backgrounds, and the highest ethical and moral standards. In determining whether to recommend a director for re-election, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers the director’s past attendance at meetings and participation in and contributions to the activities of the Board and the Company.
After completing its review and evaluation of director candidates, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to our full Board the director nominees for selection. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for director recommended by stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance committee will evaluate such recommendations in accordance with the regular director nominee criteria described above. A stockholder that wants to recommend a candidate for consideration by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should direct the recommendation in writing to the Company, attention of the Head of Legal at American Well Corporation, 75 State Street., Ste 100, Boston, MA 02109. The recommendation must include the candidate’s name, age, home and business contact information, detailed biographical data, relevant qualifications, a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve, information regarding any relationships between the candidate and the Company and evidence of the recommending stockholder’s ownership of our capital stock. Such a recommendation must also include a statement from the recommending stockholder in support of the candidate, particularly within the context of the criteria for membership on our Board.
Communications with Our Board
Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with our Board, our non-employee directors as a group or any of our directors by sending written communications addressed to our Head of Legal at American Well Corporation, 75 State Street, Ste 100, Boston, MA 02109. Each communication will be reviewed by our Head of Legal to determine whether it is appropriate for presentation to our Board or the applicable director(s). The purpose of this screening is to allow our Board to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications (such as advertisements, solicitations, and product inquiries).
Controlled Company
We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Drs. Ido and Roy Schoenberg hold 51% of the total combined voting power of our outstanding common stock and
13
have agreed to vote as a group. We do not rely on any exemptions from the corporate governance standards available to controlled companies.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy
All of our non-employee directors are eligible to receive compensation for their service on our Board. Board members who are also our employees are not paid any additional compensation for their service on our Board.
The Board’s non-employee director compensation policy is designed to provide a total compensation package that enables us to attract and retain, on a long-term basis, high-caliber non-employee directors. The Board may amend, modify or terminate the policy at any time. The policy is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and the full Board with reference to the policies of each of the members of a peer group of similar companies selected by the Compensation Committee in consultation with Aon’s Human Capital Solutions practice, a division of Aon plc (“Aon”), its independent compensation consultant.
The compensation for services is based on the director compensation policy, under which our non-employee directors are eligible to receive annual cash retainers and restricted stock unit (“RSU”) grants, as follows: (i) annual cash retainer of $75,000 and $5,000 annually in addition to the annual retainer for serving as a Board Chair for one of the following; the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, paid in quarterly installments in arrears, (ii) an initial RSU grant with a fair market value of $300,000 to be made in connection with the director’s appointment to the Board (or, if such director is appointed on the date of our annual meeting of stockholders, $450,000) (“Initial RSUs”), which vests in equal annual installments over three years, and (iii) an annual RSU grant with a fair market value of $150,000 and a grant of $25,000 annually for serving as a Board Chair for one of the following; the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to be made in connection with our annual meeting of stockholders (“Annual RSUs”), which vests on the earlier of:
(A) the day immediately preceding the date of our first annual meeting of stockholders following the date of grant; or
(B) the first anniversary of the date of grant.
The value of Initial RSUs and Annual RSUs is determined using the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the NYSE on the date of the award. The Board has reserved discretion under the policy to grant all or a portion of the foregoing equity awards in any combination of equity-based awards available for grant under the 2020 Equity Plan or any other applicable equity incentive plan maintained by the Company at the time of grant.

Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
We implemented stock ownership guidelines as we believe stock ownership is an important tool to strengthen the alignment of interests among our executive officers, non-employee directors and our stockholders. Each non-employee director is required to hold Company stock with a value equal to five (5) times his/her annual cash retainer. Each non-employee director will have five (5) years from the date of the adoption of these guidelines or their subsequent initial appointment to the Board to comply with the guidelines. After the initial five-year phase-in period, compliance with the ownership guideline will be measured on December 31 of each year. For purposes of measuring compliance with these guidelines, time-based restricted stock units (whether or not vested) and Company stock owned directly, or beneficially owned by the non-employee director or the non-employee director’s family members, will count toward the non-employee director’s stock holdings. Unexercised stock options, including vested in-the-money options, and performance-based restricted stock/restricted stock units that are unearned (i.e., performance-based awards for which the applicable performance conditions have not been satisfied) are not counted for purposes of compliance. All non-employee directors were compliant with these guidelines as of December 31, 2025.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
Policy Concerning Related Person Transactions
Our Board has adopted a written policy, which we refer to as the related person transaction approval policy, for the review of any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which we are a participant, if the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and one of our executive officers, directors, director nominees or beneficial holders of more than 5% of our total equity (or his or her immediate family members), each of whom we refer to as a related person, has a direct or indirect material interest.
If a related person proposes to enter into such a transaction, arrangement or relationship, which we refer to as a related person transaction, the related person must report the proposed related person transaction to the chairman of our Audit Committee. The policy calls for the proposed related person transaction to be reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, approved by the Audit Committee. In approving or rejecting such proposed transactions, the Audit Committee will be required to consider relevant facts and circumstances. The Audit Committee will approve only those transactions that, in light of known circumstances, are deemed to be in our best interests. In the event that any member of the Audit Committee is not a disinterested person with respect to the related person transaction under review, that member will be excluded from the review and approval or rejection of such related person transaction; provided, however, that such Audit Committee member may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at the meeting of the Audit Committee at which such transaction is considered. If we become aware of an existing related person transaction which has not been approved under the policy, the matter will be referred to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will evaluate all options available, including ratification, revision or termination of such transaction. In the event that management determines that it is impractical or undesirable to wait until a meeting of the Audit Committee to consummate a related person transaction, the chairman of the Audit Committee may approve such transaction in accordance with the related person transaction approval policy. Any such approval must be reported to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, during our last fiscal year or currently proposed, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:
15
Other than as described herein, since January 1, 2025, there have not been, nor are there any currently proposed, transactions or series of similar transactions meeting these criteria to which we have been or will be a party other than compensation arrangements, which are described where required under “Directors Compensation” and “Executive Compensation”.
Provision of Telehealth Services
We contract with and provide telehealth services to certain affiliated parties, including Cleveland Clinic. For additional information, see Note 17 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. These agreements provide that the Company shall hold harmless and indemnify each indemnitee against all expenses and losses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL.
Transactions with Others
Dr. Ido Schoenberg’s son, Dan Wahrhaft, is employed with the Company as Vice President, Sales & Account Management. Mr. Wahrhaft received aggregate compensation, inclusive of his base salary, bonus, equity awards granted and Company contribution under the Company’s defined contribution retirement plan, of $229,165 for his employment in the year ended December 31, 2025.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
This section discusses the principles and objectives underlying our policies and decisions with respect to the compensation of our named executive officers (“NEOs”), as well as other material factors relevant to an analysis of these policies and decisions regarding our 2025 executive compensation program. This executive compensation section is intended to be read in conjunction with the tables that immediately follow this section, which provide further compensation information for the following NEOs:

See “Compensation Program Components – Leadership Transitions Effective in 2025” for further information regarding our 2025 leadership transitions.
The primary objectives of our executive compensation program are to attract and retain key executives who are able to contribute to our long-term success, maintain a pay-for performance compensation program that will fairly compensate our executives and employees and align our executives' long-term interests with our stockholders by incentivizing performance with clearly defined corporate goals and achievement of stated business objectives. This section provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation program and each element of compensation provided. In addition, it explains how and why the Compensation Committee (for purposes of this Executive Compensation section, the compensation tables and related information that follows and Proposal No. 3, the “Committee”) arrived at the specific compensation policies and decisions involving our NEOs in respect of 2025.
2025 Support for the Company’s Executive Compensation Program
We held our advisory vote on executive compensation at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Although this vote on compensation, known as the “say-on-pay” vote, is advisory and not binding on the company, the Committee and the Board value the opinions of stockholders and review the voting results in connection with their ongoing evaluation of our compensation philosophy and compensation decisions.
At our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, we received the support of approximately 97% of the votes cast on our say-on-pay proposal. The Committee viewed the results of the 2025 say-on-pay vote as evidence that a substantial majority of stockholders are aligned with our executive compensation program. The Board and the Committee will continue to carefully consider the results of any say-on-pay vote in the future.
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Compensation Philosophy
The Committee believes that a well-designed compensation program should align the NEOs’ interests with Company growth and stockholder returns. Specifically, the Committee believes that the program should support and incentivize the executive team to ensure the Company’s achievement of its primary business goals and allow the Company to attract and retain executives whose talents, expertise, leadership and contributions are expected to build and sustain growth in long-term stockholder value. As a result, we maintain a strong pay-for-performance orientation in our compensation program.
To achieve these objectives, the Committee regularly reviews our compensation policies and overall program design to ensure that they are aligned with the interests of our stockholders and our business goals, and that the total compensation paid to our executives and directors is fair, reasonable and competitive for our size and stage of development.
Compensation Objectives
The Committee has designed our executive compensation program to motivate our executive officers to achieve these business objectives by closely linking the value of the compensation our executives earn to our performance relative to
18
these business objectives. Specific metrics are chosen by the Committee to incentivize performance that supports and advances our short- and long-term strategic and business objectives and the creation of stockholder value.
The Committee believes using equity for the long-term incentives creates strong alignment between the interests of executive officers and the interests of our stockholders because it gives executive officers and stockholders a common interest in stock price performance. Granting equity also fosters an ownership culture among executive officers by making them stockholders with a personal stake in Amwell’s growth and success.
Components of Executive Compensation
The Committee assesses the effectiveness of our executive compensation program from time to time and reviews risk mitigation and governance matters, which includes maintaining the following best practices:
What We Do
|
|
Pay for Performance |
A material portion of total executive compensation is variable and at-risk. |
|
|
Balance Short- and Long-Term Compensation |
The allocation of incentives does not over-emphasize short-term performance at the expense of achieving long-term goals. |
|
|
Independent Compensation Consultant |
The Committee has engaged an independent compensation consultant to provide information and advice for use in all aspects of compensation-related decision-making. |
|
|
Peer Data |
We identify a peer group of companies based on industry sector, revenue and market capitalization to reference for compensation decisions. Our peer group listing is reviewed on an annual basis. |
|
|
Cap on Incentive Awards |
Our incentive plans have an upper limit on the amount that may be earned and paid. |
|
|
Robust Stock Ownership and Retention Guidelines |
Our executive officers and directors are required to maintain certain levels of stock ownership. We require, for those who have not met their minimum required ownership, that they hold (and not dispose of) a certain number of shares of our common stock acquired through equity awards. |
|
|
Clawback Policy |
We maintain a clawback policy designed to recoup incentive compensation paid to executive officers based on erroneously prepared financial statements. |
What We Don’t Do
|
|
No Hedging of Company Securities |
We prohibit employees and directors from engaging in hedging or short sale transactions in Company securities. |
|
|
No Pledging of Company Securities |
We prohibit employees and directors from pledging Company securities or placing them in a margin account. |
|
|
No Excessive Perks |
We do not provide large perquisites to executive officers. |
|
|
No Excise Tax Gross-Ups |
We do not provide excise tax gross-ups. |
Compensation Determination Process
Role of the Compensation Committee
The Committee establishes, reviews and approves our compensation philosophy and objectives; determines the structure, components and other elements of executive compensation; and reviews and approves the compensation of the NEOs or, in the case of the CEO, recommends it for approval by the Board. The Committee structures the executive compensation program to accomplish its articulated compensation objectives in light of the compensation philosophy described above.
19
The Committee obtains input from executive officers regarding the Company’s annual operating plan, expected financial results, and related risks. Based on this information and with the assistance of the Committee’s independent compensation consultant, the Committee establishes annual performance-based metrics and targets under our incentive plan. The Committee sets appropriate threshold and maximum levels of attainment for the performance-based metrics of the annual incentive plan to motivate achievement among our executive officers while mitigating risk-taking behavior. On an annual basis, the Committee reviews the core elements of our executive compensation program to verify that the program aligns with our business strategy. The Committee also recommends changes (as needed) that it believes will drive the creation of stockholder value.
At the beginning of the fiscal year, the Committee evaluates executive officer achievement over the past calendar year relative to previously established and approved performance targets and examines whether it would be appropriate to apply discretion to the initial outcomes in order to take relevant factors into consideration. The Committee then determines the corresponding payouts earned under the performance-based annual incentive plan and for any performance stock units (“PSUs”).
With the recommendations of the CEO, the Committee approves the compensation for all the other executive officers. With respect to compensation of our CEO, the Committee makes recommendations to the full Board.
Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant
The Committee recognizes that there is value in procuring independent, objective expertise and counsel in connection with fulfilling its duties, and pursuant to its charter, the Committee has the authority to select and retain independent advisors and counsel to assist it with carrying out its duties and responsibilities. The Committee has exercised this authority to engage Aon as an independent compensation consultant, and the Company has provided appropriate funding to the Committee to do so.
The Committee has worked with Aon to develop a peer group, provide a competitive market analysis of the base salary, annual cash incentive awards and long-term incentive compensation of our executive officers compared against the compensation peer group, report on share utilization, and review other market practices and trends.
While the Committee took into consideration the review and recommendations of Aon when making decisions about our executive compensation program, ultimately, the Committee made its own independent decisions in determining our executives’ compensation.
The Committee has assessed the independence of Aon pursuant to SEC and NYSE rules. In doing so, the Committee considered each of the factors set forth by the SEC and the NYSE with respect to a compensation consultant’s independence and reviewed Aon’s own self-evaluation of and conclusion regarding its independence. The Committee also considered the nature and amount of work performed for the Committee by Aon and the fees paid for those services in relation to the firm’s total revenues. Based on its consideration of the foregoing and other relevant factors, the Committee concluded that there were no conflicts of interest, and that Aon is independent.
Compensation Peer Groups and Peer Selection Process
The Committee believes relevant market and benchmark data provide a solid reference point for making decisions and very helpful context, even though, relative to other companies, there are differences and unique aspects of the Company. The Committee takes into consideration the structure and components of, and the amounts paid under, the executive compensation programs of other, comparable peer companies, as derived from public filings and other sources when making decisions about the structure and component mix of our executive compensation program.
The Committee, with the assistance of Aon, developed an updated peer group in October 2024 for use in connection with decisions about 2025 executive compensation. The Committee used the following criteria in selecting a peer group: sector (technology and health care technology), trailing twelve months of revenue (0.5x to 2.5x the Company’s revenue, oriented toward high growth) and market capitalization (0.5x to 5.0x the Company’s market cap). Beyond those criteria, in reviewing the peer group, Aon recommended, and the Committee agreed, to consider maintaining historical consistency in the peer group barring substantial changes in the size or business of the peer company and recognized that existing companies that fall outside the selection criteria may nonetheless be considered important in the existing peer group when considered as a strong talent and business profile comparator.
20
Based on these criteria and considerations, the Committee approved a peer group that consisted of the following 15 companies:
Accolade, Inc. (Nasdaq: ACCD) |
GoodRx Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GDRX) |
Omnicell, Inc. (Nasdaq: OMCL) |
Talkspace, Inc. (Nasdaq: TALK) |
Certara, Inc. (Nasdaq: CERT) |
Health Catalyst, Inc. (Nasdaq: HCAT) |
Phreesia, Inc. (NYSE: PHR) |
Teladoc Health, Inc. (NYSE: TDOC) |
Definitive Healthcare Corp. (Nasdaq: DH) |
LifeStance Health Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: LFST) |
Progyny, Inc. (Nasdaq: PGNY) |
TruBridge, Inc. (Nasdaq: TBRG) |
Doximity, Inc. (NYSE: DOCS) |
LivePerson, Inc. (Nasdaq: LPSN) |
Schrödinger, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDGR) |
|
Based on the peer analysis performed by Aon for the 2025 executive compensation in October 2024, the Committee adopted the same peer group as the prior year except that NextGen Healthcare, Inc. and Sharecare, Inc. were removed because they were acquired, and Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. changed its name to Trubridge, Inc. on March 4, 2024. The Committee believes that the compensation practices of the above listed peer group provided us with appropriate compensation reference points for evaluating and determining the compensation of our NEOs for 2025. Consistent with best practices for corporate governance, the Committee reviews our peer group annually.
In addition to the peer group criteria above, the Committee also references general and specific industry surveys from other sources. The market data is used as a reference point and provides information on the range of competitive pay levels and current compensation practices in our industry.
Role of the CEO
At the start of 2025, the Committee worked with our CEO, Dr. Ido Schoenberg, to set the target compensation for each of our other NEOs. As part of this process, the CEO evaluated the performance of the other executive officers and made recommendations to the Committee in the first quarter of the year regarding the compensation of each other executive officer.
The Committee gives significant weight to the recommendation of the CEO in light of his familiarity with the day-to-day performance of these officers. Nevertheless, the Committee makes the ultimate determination regarding the overall compensation for the executive officers.
Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Ms. Gotlib are married to each other. The Committee has strict protocols to avoid conflicts of interest and to maintain confidentiality in connection with determinations of the compensation of Dr. Ido Schoenberg and Ms. Gotlib.
Compensation Program Components
2025 Components in General
The Company’s executive compensation program consists of three components; base salary, bonus compensation based upon achievement of annual objectives and stock-based equity awards. The Committee utilizes these components, as specifically set forth below, in order to achieve its executive compensation program objectives. Through regular reviews, the Committee verifies that each executive officer’s total compensation is consistent with its compensation philosophy.
Element |
Description |
Additional Detail |
Base Salary |
Fixed cash compensation
Determined based on each executive officer’s role, individual skills, level of experience, demonstrated performance, and current positioning relative to competitive market and internal equity. |
Base salaries are intended to provide guaranteed cash compensation to executive officers, allowing us to attract and retain skilled executive talent and maintain a consistent, stable leadership team. |
|
|
|
Short-Term Incentives: Annual Cash Incentive Opportunities |
Variable cash compensation based on the level of achievement of certain pre-determined annual performance objectives.
Target bonus award is capped as a fixed percentage of base salary. |
Annual cash incentive opportunities are designed to align our executive officers focus and efforts with achieving our short-term goals; payout levels are generally determined based on actual financial results and the level of achievement of personal performance milestones. |
|
|
|
21
Element |
Description |
Additional Detail |
Long-Term Incentives: Equity-Based Compensation |
Variable equity-based compensation.
Performance Stock Units (PSUs): performance-based restricted stock units were granted to our CEO in 2025, using adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow as the performance metrics.
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs): Restricted stock units that are time-based. |
Equity-based compensation is designed to motivate and reward executive officers to achieve multi-year strategic goals and to deliver sustained long-term value to stockholders, as well as to attract and retain executive officers for the long term. |
Base Salary
Base salaries provide fixed cash compensation to executive officers. Base salaries are individually determined according to each executive officer’s areas of responsibility, specific role(s), level of experience, individual skill set and demonstrated achievement in addition to overall market factors. Maintaining competitive, market-based salaries helps us to attract and retain the executive talent needed to lead the business and maintain a stable leadership team.
From time to time, the Committee might consider and approve base salary adjustments for executive officers. The main considerations for salary adjustments are similar to the criteria outlined above which affect initial base salary recommendations. Additionally, other considerations may also include changes in the competitive market, changes of role or responsibilities, or recognition for individual achievements.
For 2025, the Committee did not make any changes to the base salaries of the CEO or Mr. Hirschhorn. Mr. Zamansky's base salary was established when he became the Company's Chief Product and Technology Officer effective March 3, 2025.

(1) Amounts shown are the annual base salary rate in effect at year-end.
For newly-hired executive officers, as Mr. Zamansky was in 2025, the Committee establishes initial base salary through arm’s-length negotiations at the time the executive officer is hired. Initial base salaries, consider the specific position and market conditions in addition to the executive’s experience, qualifications and prior compensation levels.
Annual Incentive Plan
The annual incentive plan for executive officers is a cash plan that rewards NEOs for the achievement of key short-term objectives that the Committee views as key milestones in the execution of our overall business strategy, with the ultimate goal of increasing stockholder value.
For the NEOs, the amount of the payout, if any, under the annual incentive plan is based on achievement against two categories of performance measures: a Corporate Funding Performance Factor and a Personal Factor Multiplier.

Target Opportunities
The Committee determines the annual target incentive compensation opportunity, expressed as a percentage of base salary, for each NEO (the CEO's annual target incentive compensation opportunity is ultimately approved by the Board). In setting target incentive percentages, factors considered include, among others, the incentive levels for NEOs at our peer group companies and the percentage of total direct compensation represented by the annual incentive.
22
The amounts shown in the table below reflect the 2025 Target Annual Incentive Opportunities initially established by the Committee for each named executive officer:

Corporate Funding Performance Factor
The amount of the annual incentive plan payout, if any, is based in part on our achievement against financial measures. The Committee selected two financial measures for this year’s annual incentive opportunity, consisting of 2025 Company revenue and 2025 adjusted EBITDA each weighted at 50% of the total bonus opportunity.
Given the Company’s stage of development, the Committee emphasized revenue growth and market share as the highest priorities. We derive revenue from the use of our enterprise platform and software as a service in the form of recurring subscription fees, and related services and Carepoint sales. We also generate revenue from the performance of AMG (our independent clinical services partner) patient visits. We empower our clients with our enterprise platform and software as a service solution that enables hybrid care delivery by offering our clients products to help weave digital care across all care settings. Amwell determined that growing the business through incentivizing the acquisition of new customers and selling additional modules and products to existing customers was critical for our success, as well as the success of our clients and patients.
Target, Threshold and Maximum Corporate Funding Performance Levels
The Committee set the performance metric targets at levels that it considered rigorous and challenging in addition to consideration of relevant risks and opportunities. More specifically, the Committee reviewed the relevant financial objectives set as a result of the detailed budgeting process and assessed various factors related to the achievability of these budget targets, including projected growth of the overall market, the risks associated with various macroeconomic factors, including the effects of inflation and rising interest rates, and the risks of achieving specific actions that underlie the targets and the implied performance relative to prior years.
Considering these factors, the Committee set the 2025 annual incentive plan target for revenue at $255 million. The Committee established the targets for adjusted EBITDA of ($55) million. Both of these stated targets reflect levels that the Committee believed would reflect significant achievement against stated commitments as well as progress towards increasing stockholder value.
Having set these targets, the Committee also set the threshold and maximum performance levels. For 2025, the Committee set the threshold for payment of any annual incentives at approximately 95% of the revenue target and at 91% of the adjusted EBITDA target. The Committee set the maximum level payment for the revenue metric at 125% of target and the maximum level for adjusted EBITDA attainment at 125% of target, each of which were levels that presented a significant challenge requiring exceptionally strong performance.

Personal Factor
Under our annual incentive plan, the Committee also considers a personal factor in determining the payout to each NEO. For 2025, the personal factors for the CEO and CFO were the same as the Company’s corporate performance metrics, given the nature of their roles.
In 2025, Mr. Zamansky was the only NEO whose annual incentive plan bonus was measured under the personal factor. The personal factor for Mr. Zamansky was designed to align with the Company's strategic and operating initiatives. In general, the Committee determines personal factor achievement based on the attainment of select Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) that are aligned with Company and department OKRs. The resulting personal factor is subsequently expressed as a percentage, with a maximum of 125%. Attained personal factor achievement is then applied, along with the corporate component, toward bonus pool funding to determine the actual bonus payout for the NEO. For 2025, the Committee determined that Mr. Zamansky's personal factor was achieved at 100%.

Long-Term Incentives
The third and generally largest of the main components of our executive compensation program is our long-term incentive opportunity. Our long-term incentive program is designed to create a direct link between payouts and performance, and a strong alignment between the interests of our executive officers and our stockholders.
24
Our long-term incentives may be provided in the form of cash, equity, or both. Long-term cash incentives align executives’ interests with sustained company performance, while rewarding the achievement of strategic and financial goals that are critical to the company’s long-term success. Long-term equity incentives foster a culture of ownership among our executive officers by providing them with a personal stake as stockholders, thus rewarding them with tangible value for achieving the objectives they are incentivized to meet. Further, both long-term cash and equity incentives promote retention of our executive team who will only receive value if they remain employed by us over the required vesting term.
In 2025, the Committee: awarded our CEO a three-year long-term incentive comprised of RSUs, PSUs and cash; established the performance goal, and certified the earnout, for the second tranche of the CEO’s 2024 long-term cash-based incentive; established the performance goal, and certified the earnout, for a portion of the CFO’s 2024 new hire performance award; and approved a long-term RSU award for the Company’s newly hired Chief Product and Technology Officer. Each of these actions is described in more detail in the sections below.
CEO Cash-Based and Stock-Based Long-Term Incentive Awards
2025 CEO Long-Term Incentive

For 2025, the Committee established a performance goal for the Annual Performance Measures based on the Company’s adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is measured in the same way that was previously disclosed in our 10-K filings. The Board approved adjusted EBITDA as the performance measure because it aligns with our critical strategic priorities of improving profitability and controlling expenses. The 2025 goal required achievement of adjusted EBITDA of $(50) million or better for the fiscal year. This goal was achieved as the Company’s adjusted EBITDA was $(39.9) million. As a result, Dr. Ido Schoenberg earned $333,333 under the annual goal bonus and 33,333 annual goal PSUs for 2025. The award will be payable to Dr. Ido Schoenberg in early 2028, subject to his continued employment through such date.
The Committee selected operating cash flow as a key performance measure because it demonstrates our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to support the Company’s strategy and long-term value creation. The Company did not achieve operating cash flow at or above $0 for any quarter during 2025. Accordingly, no amounts were earned under the Operating Cash Flow Measures, either as cash or in PSUs, for 2025. Any or all of the Operating Cash Flow Measures may still be achieved for the remaining two years in the performance period.
2024 CEO Cash-Based Long-Term Incentive – Second Tranche
As disclosed in last year’s proxy statement, in August 2024, the Committee recommended, and the Board approved, the grant of a cash-based long-term incentive opportunity award to our CEO. The award is potentially payable in three equal installments of $1 million, in each of March 2025, 2026 and 2027, subject to the Company’s achievement of performance goals for the respective prior year performance period as specified by the Committee, and subject in each case to the CEO’s continued employment through the applicable payment date.
For the tranche corresponding to the 2025 performance period, the Committee established a performance goal based on the Company’s adjusted EBITDA. The Board selected adjusted EBITDA as the measure, because it is aligned with our critical strategic priorities of profitability and controlling expenses. In 2025, the specific goal was established as attainment of adjusted EBITDA of $(50) million or better for fiscal 2025.
As noted above, adjusted EBITDA was used as a metric in both the second tranche of the 2024 CEO Cash-Based Long-Term Incentive and in the 2025 CEO Long-Term Incentive Award. The Company’s multi-year strategic and financial plan is built around improving adjusted EBITDA, and using this metric in both PSU cycles reinforces consistent execution of that plan. For these years, the Committee approved the same adjusted EBITDA performance goals. However, the adjusted EBITDA goals are challenging and rigorous.
In February 2026, the Committee determined that the goal associated with the second tranche of CEO’s 2024 long-term incentive award was met because the Company's adjusted EBITDA for 2025 was $(39) million. As a result, $1 million was paid to the CEO in February 2026.
CFO New Hire Performance Grant
One of the components of Mr. Hirschhorn’s new hire award under his October 2024 employment agreement was a long-term incentive award with a potential opportunity to earn $5 million over a four-year period in substantially equal annual installments on the first four anniversaries of his start date.
This award is conditioned on (i) his continued employment through the applicable vesting date; and (ii) achievement of specified performance targets, including adjusted EBITDA targets and appreciation of Company valuation targets, in each case, as determined by the Board or the Committee in its sole discretion. Under the terms of the employment agreement, any vested amounts are settled in cash unless otherwise directed by the Board.
In February 2025 the Committee established the performance targets for the first performance-based award. In October 2025, the Committee approved payment of the first tranche of $1.25 million based on the Company’s attainment of established 2025 performance goals which were (i) an increase in stock valuation by at least 33%, which was achieved in February 2025; (ii) revenue of $245 million which was achieved, and (iii) adjusted EBITDA target of $(50) million which was achieved at approximately $(48) million.
26
Chief Product and Technology Officer’s New Hire RSU Award
One of the components of Mr. Zamansky’s new hire award under his February 2025 employment agreement was an RSU grant with a target value of $2.5 million. Under the terms of this award, 25% of the RSU award vested six months following the grant date and the remaining 75% vests in substantially equal quarterly installments through the four-year anniversary of the grant date.
Other Elements of Compensation
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Under the terms of our 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), eligible employees are provided the opportunity to purchase shares of our Class A common stock through the exercise of stock options granted during offering periods established by the administrator based on participants’ applied payroll deductions of up to a fixed dollar amount or percentage of their eligible compensation. The purchase price per share of our Class A common stock will equal 85% of the lower of either (a) the Common Stock’s fair market value on the first trading day of an offering period (in either case, the “enrollment date”) or (b) the Common Stock’s fair market value on the applicable “purchase date” of the offering period. The CEO is not an eligible employee under the ESPP.
Retirement Benefits
We maintain a tax-qualified defined contribution plan (the “401(k) Plan”), in which our employees, including our named executive officers, are eligible to participate. Under the 401(k) Plan, participants may defer a portion of their annual compensation on a pre-tax or after-tax Roth basis. In addition, we make a matching contribution of up to 3% of a participant’s contribution subject to IRS contribution limits.
We do not provide a pension plan for employees (other than as may be statutorily required by applicable law) and none of our named executive officers participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan.
Employee Benefits
All of our full-time employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including:
We also provide supplemental short-term disability coverage to our NEOs in addition to the short-term disability coverage provided to our full-time employees generally.
We believe the benefits and limited perquisite described above are necessary and appropriate to provide a competitive compensation package to our named executive officers.
Change in Control and Severance Arrangements
As further described immediately below, we believe that the possibility of a change in control creates uncertainty for our executive officers regarding their continued employment because such transactions frequently result in senior management changes. Change in control protections help to alleviate these concerns, allowing each executive to focus their attention on growing our business. In addition, these protections encourage executives to remain employed with us during the threat or negotiation of a change in control transaction, which preserves our value and the potential benefit to be received by our stockholders in the transaction.
We also believe that protection against an involuntary termination (even outside of the change in control context) helps us remain competitive given the challenge of recruiting qualified individuals to fill our senior executive roles. Pursuant to our employment arrangements with each of our NEOs, if we terminate the employment of such executive for reasons other than for “Cause” (including such executive’s death or permanent disability), or if such executive resigns for “Good Reason”, then he or she will be eligible to receive certain cash severance, bonus and other benefits, with such enhanced benefits to include (i) full accelerated vesting of equity based awards if such involuntary termination occurs in connection with a change in control, and (ii) partial
27
accelerated vesting of equity based award if such involuntary termination occurs generally. All such benefits are contingent on execution of a general release of claims by the executive officer in question.
In addition, the CEO will receive accelerated vesting of his equity if we engage in a corporate transaction, as defined under our equity plan, that results in a change in his role in the organization.
We do not provide any excise tax gross-ups to any of our NEOs in the event of a change of control.
Additional details are provided under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.
Additional Compensation Policies and Practices
Clawback Policy
Amwell has adopted an incentive-based compensation recoupment policy as required under the SEC regulation that implements the applicable provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the related NYSE listing standard. The policy generally requires that the Company recoup incentive compensation, which is defined as compensation granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure, if the Company is required to restate its financial results due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws. Consistent with these requirements, the Company will seek recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received by current and former executive officers during the three-year period prior to the date the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement. A copy of the clawback policy is filed as Exhibit 97.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines
We believe that Amwell and our stockholders are best served when executive officers manage the business with a long-term perspective. As such, we have implemented executive stock ownership guidelines, as we believe stock ownership is an important tool to strengthen the alignment of interests among our executive officers and our stockholders, to reinforce executive officers’ commitment to us and to demonstrate our commitment to sound corporate governance. The current NEOs have five years from the date the ownership guidelines were adopted in October 2022 to comply with the ownership guidelines. Any newly hired or promoted executives will have five years from the date of their hire or promotion to comply with the guidelines. After the initial five-year phase-in period, compliance with the ownership guideline will be measured on March 31 of each year. All of our current executive officers are in compliance with the guidelines or are on track to be in compliance with the guidelines within the five-year period.

For this purpose, time-based restricted stock units (whether or not vested) and Company stock directly or beneficially owned by the executive or the executive’s immediate family members will count for purposes of measuring compliance with the ownership guidelines. Stock options, including vested in-the-money options, and performance-based restricted stock/restricted stock units that are unearned (i.e., performance-based awards for which the applicable performance conditions have not been satisfied) are not counted for purposes of measuring compliance with the ownership guidelines.
Equity Granting Practices
The Committee has not granted stock options in recent years and did not grant stock options in 2025.
Tax Considerations: Section 162(m)
When reviewing compensation matters, the Committee considers the anticipated tax consequences to us (and, when relevant, to our executive officers) of the various payments under our compensation programs. Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows a tax deduction for any publicly held corporation for individual compensation of more than $1.0 million in any taxable
28
year to certain executive officers. The Committee, after considering the potential impact of the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, may provide compensation to executive officers that may not be tax deductible if it believes that providing that compensation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
In the event of a qualifying termination of employment and/or the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, each of our NEOs is entitled to certain payments and benefits under their employment agreements and their outstanding equity incentive awards, as detailed below.
Dr. Ido Schoenberg
Pursuant to the CEO’s employment agreement dated June 18, 2020, in the event of a termination of the CEO’s employment by us for “Cause” (as defined in the agreement) or by the executive without “Good Reason” (as defined in the agreement), the CEO will be entitled to receive certain accrued compensation and benefits. On a termination of the CEO’s employment due to death or disability, in addition to certain accrued compensation and benefits, the CEO will be entitled to receive, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, (i) any earned but unpaid prior year bonuses, (ii) a pro-rata bonus for the year of termination (based on target performance) and (iii) accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards (with any applicable performance goals achieved at target performance). In the case of a termination of the CEO’s employment upon his retirement, in addition to the accrued compensation and benefits, he will be entitled to receive, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, continued vesting of outstanding equity awards.
In the event of a termination of the CEO’s employment by the Company without Cause or by the CEO for Good Reason, he will be entitled to receive, in addition to certain accrued compensation and benefits and any earned but unpaid prior year bonuses, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, (i) a pro-rata bonus for the year of termination (based on actual performance at year-end), (ii) three times then-current base salary, paid in equal installments over the 36-month period following the termination date less any amounts contributed to the Managers Insurance and/or Pension Fund under Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law,(iii) accelerated vesting of all outstanding equity awards (with any applicable performance goals achieved at target performance), and (iv) any outstanding Retention Amount tranches pursuant to the CEO’s retention agreement dated August 15, 2024, . (v) immediate vesting of any RSUs granted as a result of the August 2025 long-term incentive award that are then scheduled to vest within the 18-month period following the termination. (vi) immediate vesting for any earned PSUs granted as a result of the August 2025 long-term incentive award as well as unearned annual goal bonus PSUs and the portion of the annual goal bonus for the year of termination will be eligible to be earned on a pro-rated basis if the relevant performance goals are achieved for that year.
This agreement provides for restrictions on non-competition (during employment and for (A) 24 months following a termination of employment without cause or resignation for good reason or (B) 12 months following any other termination event), non-solicitation of customers and employees (during employment and for 24 months post-termination), confidentiality (in perpetuity) and mutual non-disparagement (in perpetuity).
The August 2025 long-term incentive award also has additional conditions in the instance of a change of control. Specifically, all RSUs issued under this agreement would immediately vest in full. Additionally, unearned annual goal PSUs and any unearned portion of the annual goal bonus will be deemed earned as of the change in control and will become vested on the earlier of March 31, 2028 or the date on which our CEO experiences a good leaver termination.
30
Mr. Hirschhorn
Mr. Hirschhorn’s employment agreement provides that if his employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause” or by Mr. Hirschhorn with “Good Reason” (each as defined in the applicable employment agreement), Mr. Hirschhorn will be entitled to receive, in addition to certain accrued compensation and benefits and any earned but unpaid prior year bonuses, subject to Mr. Hirschhorn’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, (i) a lump sum pro-rata bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance through the termination date (or one year’s target bonus if such termination of employment occurs one month before or within 24 months following a Change in Control (as defined in the employment agreement)), (ii) severance payments in an aggregate amount equal to Mr. Hirschhorn’s base salary, to be paid in equal installments over a one-year period, (iii) each unvested equity award held by Mr. Hirschhorn at the time of termination shall vest as to the portion that would have vested had he remained employed by the Company through the first anniversary of the termination date, and (iv) Company-paid COBRA premiums during the 12-month severance period. In addition, if the involuntary termination of employment occurs one month before or within 24 months following a Change in Control, each unvested equity award held by Mr. Hirschhorn will fully vest at the time of termination (with any applicable performance goals treated as achieved at target levels). To the extent applicable, such payments may be subject to reduction (if such reduction results in Mr. Hirschhorn being in a better after-tax position than if all amounts were paid to Mr. Hirschhorn) so that they will not be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code in those circumstances.
The agreement provides for restrictions on non-competition and non-solicitation (during employment and for 12 months following termination event), confidentiality (in perpetuity), assignment of intellectual property rights and mutual non-disparagement (in perpetuity).
Mr. Zamansky
Mr. Zamansky’s employment agreement provides that if his employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause” or by Mr. Zamansky with “Good Reason” (each as defined in his employment agreement), Mr. Zamansky will be entitled to receive, in addition to certain accrued compensation and benefits and any earned but unpaid prior year bonuses, subject to Mr. Zamansky’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, (i) a lump sum pro-rata bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance through the termination date and the number of days Mr. Zamansky was employment during such year (or one year’s target bonus if such termination of employment occurs one month before or within 24 months following a Change in Control (as defined in the employment agreement)), (ii) severance payments in an aggregate amount equal to Mr. Zamansky’s base salary, to be paid in equal installments over a one-year period (iii) each unvested equity award held by Mr. Zamansky at the time of termination shall vest as to the portion that would have vested had he remained employed by the Company through the first anniversary of the termination date, and (iv) Company- paid COBRA premiums during the 12-month severance period. In addition, if the involuntary termination of employment occurs one month before or within 24 months following a Change in Control, each unvested equity award held by Mr. Zamansky will fully vest at the time of termination (with any applicable performance goals treated as achieved at target levels). To the extent applicable, such payments may be subject to reduction (if such reduction results in Mr. Zamansky being in a better after-tax position than if all amounts were paid to Mr. Zamansky) so that they will not be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code in those circumstances.
The agreement provides for restrictions on non-competition and non-solicitation (during employment and for 12 months following termination event), confidentiality (in perpetuity), assignment of intellectual property rights and mutual non-disparagement (in perpetuity).

PROPOSAL NO. 2
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Our Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2016.
At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Stockholder ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not required by our amended and restated bylaws or other applicable legal requirements. However, our Board of Directors is submitting the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. In the event that this appointment is not ratified by our stockholders, such appointment will be reconsidered by our Audit Committee. Even if the appointment is ratified, our Audit Committee, in its sole discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 if our Audit Committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she wishes to do so and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.
Vote Required
The ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP requires the affirmative vote of holders of a plurality of the votes of all classes of stock outstanding cast at the Annual Meeting on this proposal. Withhold votes will have no effect on the results of this proposal. This is a “routine” matter, and as a result, we do not expect there will be any broker non-votes on this proposal.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR OUR FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2026.

PROPOSAL NO. 3
ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Pursuant to Schedule 14A of the Exchange Act, and related SEC rules, Amwell is asking stockholders to approve, on an advisory basis, its executive compensation as reported in this proxy statement. Stockholders are encouraged to read the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement, which describes how our executive compensation policies and procedures operate and are designed to achieve our compensation objectives, as well as the Summary Compensation Table and other related compensation tables and narrative, which provide detailed information on the compensation of our NEOs.
The Board of Directors has adopted a policy providing for annual “say-on-pay” advisory votes. In accordance with this policy and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, and as a matter of good corporate governance, Amwell is asking stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“Resolved, that Amwell’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in “Executive Compensation” and the related compensation tables and narrative disclosure in this proxy statement.”
This proposal is advisory in nature and, therefore, is not binding upon the Committee or the Board of Directors. However, the Committee will carefully evaluate the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions. Following this Annual Meeting, we expect to hold the next advisory say-on-pay vote at our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.
Vote Required
The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of holders of a plurality of the votes of all classes of stock outstanding cast at the Annual Meeting on this proposal. Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this proposal.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN “EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION” AND THE RELATED COMPENSATION TABLES AND NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Class A, Class B and Class C common stock, as of March 31, 2026 by:
• each person or group of affiliated persons known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock;
• each of our executive officers;
• each of our directors; and
• all of our executive officers and directors as a group.
The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder is determined under rules issued by the SEC. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power. Applicable percentage ownership is based on 15,011,477 shares of Class A common stock, 1,369,518 shares of Class B common stock and 277,777 shares of Class C common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by an individual or entity and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options or other rights (including restricted stock units and performance stock units) held by such person that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable or will vest and settle within 60 days of March 31, 2026 are considered outstanding, although these shares are not considered outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. This table is based on information supplied by officers and directors and by Schedules 13D, 13G and 13F, if any, filed with the SEC. Unless noted otherwise, the address of all listed stockholders is c/o American Well Corporation 75 State Street, Ste 100, Boston, MA 02109. Each of the stockholders listed has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by the stockholder unless noted otherwise, subject to community property laws where applicable.
