NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON JULY 12, 2023

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the annual meeting of the stockholders of Leafly Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Leafly” or the “Company”), will be held virtually, via a live webcast by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on July 12, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”). Stockholders attending the virtual meeting will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate in the Annual Meeting as they would at an in-person meeting.

To enter the Annual Meeting, you will need the control number that appears on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, proxy card or the voting instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. The Company recommends that you log in at least 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting to ensure you are logged in when the meeting begins. Please note that you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to:

Elect two directors to serve as Class II directors for a term of three years, until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026;

Ratify the appointment by the Company’s Audit Committee of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023;

Approve an amendment to Leafly’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), by a ratio of not less than 1-for-10 and not more than 1-for-25 at any time prior to the date of the Company's 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, with the exact ratio to be set by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) within the above range in its sole discretion, without further approval or authorization of our stockholders (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”);

Approve one or more adjournments of the Annual Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal if there are not sufficient votes at the Annual Meeting to approve the Reverse Stock Split Proposal (the "Adjournment Proposal"); and

Such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Our board of directors (the “Board”) has fixed the close of business on May 15, 2023 as the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”). Only stockholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. A list of the names of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any stockholder for 10 days before the Annual Meeting for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting. Such list will also be available during the virtual Annual Meeting for examination by any stockholder at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023. Further information regarding voting rights and the matters to be voted upon is presented in the accompanying Proxy Statement. In addition, financial and other information about the Company is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2023.

We have elected to distribute our proxy materials over the Internet as permitted under the rules of the SEC, rather than mailing paper copies of those materials to each stockholder, which will decrease our printing and distribution costs and allow for convenient access to and delivery of materials in an easily searchable format. If you would prefer to receive paper copies of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. We will mail the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to our stockholders on or about May 25, 2023, and provide access to our proxy materials over the internet on or before that date, to the holders of record of our Common Stock as of the close of business on the record date.

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, we strongly encourage you to vote by Internet, by phone or by signing, dating and returning your proxy card (if you request a paper copy) at your earliest convenience. Sending in your proxy card will not prevent you from voting your shares at the Annual Meeting, if you desire to do so.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE VIRTUAL ANNUAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON JULY 12, 2023. Our proxy materials, including the Proxy Statement and Annual Report, are available at the following websites: https://investor.leafly.com/ and www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Purpose, Date, and Time

This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) is provided in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the board of directors of Leafly (the “Board”) for use at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders to be held virtually on Wednesday, July 12, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time at the following virtual meeting link www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023 and any adjournments or postponements thereof (the “Annual Meeting”). The mailing address of our principal executive offices is 113 Cherry St. PMB 88154, Seattle, WA 98104. This Proxy Statement will be made available on or about May 25, 2023 to holders of record of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), as of the close of business on May 15, 2023 (the “Record Date”).

Access to Proxy Materials

We are providing access to our proxy materials over the Internet rather than mailing paper copies of those materials to each stockholder. On or about May 25, 2023, we will mail a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The Notice will inform you how to:

•

View the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, including this Proxy Statement and the Company’s annual report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2023;

•

Vote your shares of Common Stock; and

•

Instruct us to send proxy materials to you by mail or email (should you choose to do so).

Record Date; Outstanding Shares; Shares Entitled to Vote

The Board has fixed the close of business on May 15, 2023 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 41,207,870 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Holders of record of Common Stock on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote per share on any matter that may properly come before the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.

A list of the names of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting during the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023, and such list will be available during ordinary business hours at the Company's corporate headquarters for the ten days preceding the Annual Meeting.

Stockholders of Record; Beneficial Owners

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote on your own behalf at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owners: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee on your behalf, then you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares by following the voting instructions your broker, bank or other nominee provides. If you do not provide your broker, bank or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other nominee may, in its discretion, vote your shares with respect to routine matters but may not vote your shares with respect to any non-routine matters.

Virtual Stockholder Meeting

We will hold our Annual Meeting in a virtual only format, which will be conducted via a live webcast. Stockholders will have an equal opportunity to participate in the Annual Meeting online regardless of their geographic location. We designed the format of our

Annual Meeting to ensure that our stockholders who participate in the Annual Meeting will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting and to enhance stockholder access, participation and communication through online tools. Our directors will also participate in the virtual Annual Meeting.

Virtual Nature of the Annual Meeting

The Annual Meeting will be held "virtually" through a live audio webcast on Wednesday, July 12, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time. There will be no physical meeting location. The meeting will only be conducted via an audio webcast.

Access to the Audio Webcast of the Annual Meeting

The live audio webcast of the Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Online access to the audio webcast will open approximately fifteen minutes prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to allow time for you to log in and test the computer audio system. We encourage our stockholders to access the meeting prior to its start time. A replay of the webcast will be made publicly available 24 hours after the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023.

To participate in the virtual Annual Meeting, log in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023. Stockholders will need their unique 16-digit control number which appears on the Notice, the proxy card or the voting instructions that accompanied the proxy materials. If you do not have a control number, please contact your broker, bank, or other nominee as soon as possible, so that you can be provided with a control number and gain access to the Annual Meeting.

Submitting questions at the virtual Annual Meeting

As part of the Annual Meeting, we will hold a live Q&A session, during which we intend to answer all questions submitted during the Annual Meeting that are pertinent to the Company and the meeting matters, as time permits. If you wish to submit a question during the Annual Meeting, visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023, type your question into the “Ask a Question” field, and click “Submit.” Answers to any such questions that are not addressed during the Annual Meeting will be published following the meeting on the Company’s website at https://investor.leafly.com/ under the link “Governance.” Questions and answers will be grouped by topic and substantially similar questions will be grouped and answered once.

Technical Assistance

Beginning fifteen minutes prior to the start of and during the virtual Annual Meeting, we will have a support team ready to assist stockholders with any technical difficulties they may have accessing or hearing the virtual meeting.

If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual stockholder meeting log-in page.

Voting shares prior to and at the virtual Annual Meeting

Stockholders may vote their shares at www.proxyvote.com, by telephone or by mail, prior to the virtual Annual Meeting or at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023 during the virtual Annual Meeting.

Proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting

Leafly stockholders are being asked to vote on the following proposals at the Annual Meeting:

To elect two directors to serve as Class II directors for a term of three years, until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026 (“Proposal No. 1”);

To ratify the appointment by the Company’s Audit Committee of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023 (“Proposal No. 2”);

To effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, by a ratio of not less than 1-for-10 and not more than 1 for 25 at any time prior to the Company's 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, with the exact ratio to be set by the Company’s Board of Directors within the above range in its sole discretion, without further approval or authorization of our stockholders (“Proposal No. 3”);

To approve one or more adjournments of the annual meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in favor of Proposal No. 3 if there are not sufficient votes at the annual meeting to approve Proposal No. 3 ("Proposal No. 4"); and

Such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Recommendation of the Board of Leafly

The Board unanimously recommends that Leafly’s stockholders vote “FOR” each nominee with respect to Proposal No. 1 and “FOR” Proposal No. 2, “FOR” Proposal No. 3 and “FOR” Proposal No. 4.

Quorum and Vote Required

The presence, in person or by duly executed proxy, of stockholders representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum. Shares are considered present “in person” if the holder of those shares attends the meeting using their unique 16-digit control number or by proxy if the holder properly voted by proxy in advance of the meeting. If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, we expect that the Annual Meeting will be adjourned or postponed to solicit additional proxies.

With respect to Proposal No. 1 (Election of Directors), each director must be elected by the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast with respect to such director nominee by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote for the election of directors, provided a quorum is present. Accordingly, the two director nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. With respect to Proposal No. 1, you may vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” authority to vote for each of the director nominees. If you “WITHHOLD” authority to vote with respect to one or more director nominees, your vote will have no effect on the election of such director nominees. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of the director nominees.

Approval of Proposal No. 2 (Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditor) will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting, provided a quorum is present. A majority of the votes cast means that the number of votes cast “FOR” a proposal exceeds the number of votes cast “AGAINST” that proposal. With respect to Proposal No. 2, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” from voting on each proposal. If you “ABSTAIN” from voting with respect to a proposal, your vote will have no effect on such proposal. As described below, we do not expect there to be broker non-votes with respect to Proposal No. 2.

Approval of Proposal No. 3 (Reverse Stock Split) will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, provided a quorum is present. With respect to Proposal No. 3, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” from voting. If you “ABSTAIN” from voting with respect to Proposal No. 3, your vote will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” such proposal. As described below, we do not expect there to be broker non-votes with respect to Proposal No. 3.

Approval of Proposal No. 4 (Adjournment) and such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting, provided a quorum is present. A majority of the votes cast means that the number of votes cast “FOR” a proposal exceeds the number of votes cast “AGAINST” that proposal. With respect to Proposal No. 4 and such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” from voting on each proposal. If you “ABSTAIN” from voting with respect to a proposal, your vote will have no effect on such proposal. As described below, we do not expect there to be broker non-votes with respect to Proposal No. 4.

Voting; Proxies; Revocation

Shares of our Common Stock represented at the Annual Meeting by properly executed proxies received prior to the Annual Meeting, and not revoked prior to or at the Annual Meeting, will be voted at the Annual Meeting, and at any adjournments, continuations or postponements of the Annual Meeting, in accordance with the instructions on the proxies.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If you are a stockholder of record, you can vote in one of the following ways:

•

You may vote via the Internet. To vote via the Internet, go to www.proxyvote.com to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the control number from the proxy card when you vote. Your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on July 11, 2023 to be counted.

•

You may vote by telephone. To vote by telephone, dial 1-800-690-6903 and follow the recorded instructions. You will be asked to provide the control number from the proxy card. Your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on July 11, 2023 to be counted. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to return a proxy card by mail.

•

You may vote by mail. To vote by mail using the proxy card (if you requested paper copies of the proxy materials to be mailed to you), you need to complete, date and sign the proxy card and return it promptly by mail in the envelope provided so that it is received no later than July 11, 2023. The persons named in the proxy card will vote the shares you own in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card you mail.

•

You may vote at the Annual Meeting. To vote at the meeting, follow the instructions at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LFLY2023 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website).

Beneficial Owners: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee. If you are the beneficial owner of shares held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee in order to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares. The availability of Internet and telephone voting options will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit a duly executed proxy, but you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted:

•

FOR the election of each of the director nominees named in Proposal No. 1;

•

FOR Proposal No. 2, the ratification of the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023;

•

FOR Proposal No. 3, the approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal;

•

FOR Proposal No. 4, the approval of the Adjournment Proposal; and

•

In the discretion of the proxy holders regarding any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owners: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee. If you are a beneficial owner and you do not provide your broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares with voting instructions, then your broker, bank or other nominee will determine if it has discretion to vote on each matter. Brokers do not have discretion to vote on non-routine matters. Proposal No. 1 (Election of Directors) is a non-routine matter, while Proposal No. 2 (Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditor), Proposal No. 3 (Reverse Stock Split) and Proposal No. 4 (Adjournment) are routine matters. As a result, if you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, then your broker, bank or other nominee may not vote your shares with respect to Proposal No. 1, which would result in a “broker non-vote,” but may, in its discretion, vote your shares with respect to Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4.

A record holder who executes a proxy may revoke it before or at the Annual Meeting by: (i) entering a new vote by Internet or telephone; (ii) attending the Annual Meeting and voting at that time; (iii) duly executing, dating and delivering a new proxy card with a later date; or (iv) delivering to our Secretary a written notice of revocation of a previously delivered proxy, with such notice dated after the previously delivered proxy. Attending the Annual Meeting will not, in and of itself, constitute revocation of a proxy. Any written notice revoking a proxy should be delivered to Leafly Holdings, Inc., 113 Cherry St. PMB 88154 Seattle, Washington 98104 Attention: Nicole Sanchez, Secretary and Senior Corporate and Securities Counsel or via email to nicole.sanchez@leafly.com. If your shares of Common Stock are held in a brokerage account, you must follow your broker’s instructions to revoke a proxy.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Broker non-votes occur when a nominee holding shares of voting securities for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power on that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Abstentions, withheld votes, and broker non-votes are included in determining whether a quorum is present but are not deemed a vote cast “FOR” or “AGAINST” a given proposal. As such, abstentions, withheld votes and broker non- votes do not affect the voting results with respect to Proposal No. 1 (Election of Directors), Proposal No. 2 (Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditor), Proposal No. 4 (Adjournment) or any other items requiring the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Proposal No. 3 (Reverse Stock Split) requires approval by a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Therefore, abstentions have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” Proposal No. 3 (Reverse Stock Split).

Proxy Solicitation Costs

We are soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting from our stockholders. We will bear the expense of soliciting proxies and have hired Morrow Sodali LLC, 333 Ludlow Street, 5th Floor, South Tower, Stamford, CT 06902, to assist in the proxy solicitation process. We will pay Morrow Sodali a fee of $8,500, plus expenses. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding Common Stock for the benefit of others so that such brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians may forward the solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. We may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners of Common Stock for their expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to those beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone or personal solicitation by our directors, officers or other regular employees of the Company. No additional compensation will be paid to our directors, officers or other regular employees for these services.

Business; Adjournments

We do not expect that any matter other than the proposals presented in this Proxy Statement will be brought before the Annual Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting or in the event of any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting, then the proxy holders will vote in their discretion with respect to those matters.

If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned by the chair of the meeting from time to time, until a quorum is present. Any business may be transacted at the adjourned meeting that might have been transacted at the meeting originally noticed. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Inspector of Elections

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) tabulates the votes at the Annual Meeting, and a Representative of Broadridge will serve as the independent inspector of election.

Receipt of More Than One Set of Voting Materials

Stockholders may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this Proxy Statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered under more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your shares.

Householding of Proxy Materials

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, we will deliver only one copy of our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, and for those stockholders that received a paper copy of proxy materials in the mail, one copy of our Annual Report and this Proxy Statement, to multiple stockholders who share the same address (if they appear to be members of the same family) unless we have received contrary instructions from an affected stockholder. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards if they received a paper copy of proxy materials in the mail. This procedure reduces our printing and mailing costs. Upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate copy of the proxy materials and Annual Report to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these documents. To receive a separate copy, or, if you are receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of next year’s proxy materials and annual report, you may contact us as follows:

Leafly Holdings, Inc.

Seattle, Washington 98104

Email: nicole.sanchez@leafly.com

Stockholders who hold shares in street name may contact their brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer or other nominee to request information about householding.

Reporting of Voting Results

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that will be filed within four business days of the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us at that time, we will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an amendment to the Form 8-K to publish the final results.
