To Our Stockholders:
You are cordially invited to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Dave Inc. (the “Annual Meeting”), which will be held virtually on June 2, 2025 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting, conducted only via live webcast on the Internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DAVE2025. There will be no physical location for the Annual Meeting. You will be able to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting online, submit questions during the meeting and vote your shares electronically. You will need the 12-digit control number, which is located on the Notice of Internet Availability (“Notice”) that you received in the mail or proxy card (if you receive a printed copy of the materials) to attend the Annual Meeting. In addition, although the live webcast is available only to stockholders at the time of the meeting, following completion of the Annual Meeting, a webcast replay will be posted to the Investor Relations section of our website atinvestors.dave.com.
The matters expected to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting are described in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and proxy statement.
Please use this opportunity to take part in our affairs by voting on the business to come before the Annual Meeting. We have elected to provide access to our proxy materials to our stockholders via the Internet. Accordingly, on or about April 18, 2025, we began mailing to our stockholders the Notice. Prior to the Annual Meeting, you can access the proxy materials and vote at www.proxyvote.com. During the Annual Meeting, you can access the proxy materials and vote at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DAVE2025. Instructions for accessing the proxy materials and voting are described below and in the Notice that you received in the mail. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 4, 2025 may vote at the Annual Meeting and any postponements or adjournments of the meeting.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you expect to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, please carefully review the proxy statement and cast your vote, regardless of the number of shares you hold.
If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote over the Internet, by telephone, or, if you request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials, by completing, signing, dating and mailing the accompanying proxy card in the return envelope. Submitting your vote via the Internet or by telephone or proxy card will not affect your right to vote online during the virtual meeting if you decide to attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in street name (i.e., held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee explaining how to vote your shares, and you will have the option to cast your vote by telephone or over the Internet if your voting instruction form from your broker or nominee includes instructions and a toll-free telephone number or Internet website to do so. In any event, to be sure that your vote will be received in time, please cast your vote by your choice of available means at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Jason Wilk
Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairperson of the Board
