You are cordially invited to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Docusign, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The Annual Meeting will be held in a virtual format via an online live webcast.

02To ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for its fiscal year ending January 31, 2026.
03To conduct an advisory vote on our named executive officers’ compensation.
04To conduct any other business properly brought before the meeting.

These items of business are more fully described in the Proxy Statement accompanying this Notice.

The record date for the Annual Meeting is April 7, 2025. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date may vote at the meeting or any adjournment thereof. On or about April 16, 2025, we expect to mail to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access our Proxy Statement and annual report.

Record Date

The record date for the Annual Meeting is April 7, 2025. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date may vote at the meeting or any adjournment thereof. On or about April 16, 2025, we expect to mail to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access our Proxy Statement and annual report.

All stockholders are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you are encouraged to submit your proxy and voting instructions via the Internet, by telephone or, if you received a paper proxy card and voting instructions by mail, you may vote your shares by completing, signing and dating the proxy card as promptly as possible and returning it in the enclosed envelope (to which no postage need be affixed if mailed in the United States). Even if you have given your proxy, you may still vote online if you attend the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name. You may revoke a previously delivered proxy at any time prior to the Annual Meeting. You may do so automatically by voting online at the Annual Meeting, or by delivering to us a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a date later than the date of the proxy being revoked.
