PROXY STATEMENT

FOR 2023 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

to be held at 10:00 am Pacific Time on Tuesday, June 20, 2023

This proxy statement and the form of proxy are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders of DoorDash, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and any postponements, adjournments, or continuations thereof (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 20, 2023 at 10:00 am Pacific Time. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting virtually by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DASH2023, where you will be able to listen to the meeting live, submit questions, and vote online. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our annual report is first being mailed on or about April 28, 2023 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The information provided in the “question and answer” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of certain information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and references to our website address in this proxy statement are inactive textual references only.

What matters am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on:

•the election of three Class III directors to serve until the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

•a proposal to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023;

•a proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

Our board of directors recommends a vote:

•“FOR” the election of the Class III director nominees named in this proxy statement;

•“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023; and

•“FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.

1

How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?

Proposal No. 1: Each director is elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. A majority of votes cast means that the voting power of the shares cast “For” a director’s election exceeds the voting power of the shares cast “Against” that director. You may vote “For” or “Against” the nominee for election as a director or you may “Abstain”. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. If the director does not receive a majority of the votes cast “For” their election, he or she will be required by our amended and restated bylaws to resign or will be subject to removal. For more information, see “Proposal No. 1 - Election of Directors-Vote Required-Resignation Requirement”.

Proposal No. 2: The ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this proposal.

Proposal No. 3: The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this proposal is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on our board of directors or any committee thereof or our company. Our board of directors and our leadership development, inclusion, and compensation committee (“compensation committee”) will consider the outcome of the vote when determining named executive officer compensation.

Who is entitled to vote?

Holders of our Class A and Class B common stock as of the close of business on April 21, 2023, the record date for the Annual Meeting, may vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, there were 360,751,963 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding and 27,727,840 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding. Our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote as a single class on all matters described in this proxy statement for which your vote is being solicited. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 20 votes on each proposal. Our Class A common stock and Class B common stock are collectively referred to in this proxy statement as our “common stock.”

Registered Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Notice was provided to you directly by us. 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 live at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these registered stockholders as “stockholders of record.”

Street Name Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are held on your behalf in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of shares that are held in “street name,” and the Notice was forwarded to you by your broker or nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may

2

not vote your shares of our common stock live at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker’s procedures for obtaining a legal proxy. If you request a printed copy of our proxy materials by mail, your broker, bank, or other nominee will provide a voting instruction form for you to use. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee as “street name stockholders.”

Are a certain number of shares required to be present at the Annual Meeting?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present at the Annual Meeting to properly hold an annual meeting of stockholders and conduct business under our amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law. The presence, virtually or by proxy, of a majority of the voting power of all issued and outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, there are four ways to vote:

•by Internet prior to the Annual Meeting at www.proxyvote.com, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 19, 2023 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website);

•by toll-free telephone at 1-800-690-6903, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 19, 2023 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you call);

•by completing and mailing your proxy card (if you received printed proxy materials); or

•by attending the Annual Meeting virtually by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DASH2023, where you may vote and submit questions during the meeting (please have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website).

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also vote by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

If you are a street name stockholder, 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 direct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Street name stockholders should generally be able to vote by returning a voting instruction form, or by telephone or on the Internet. However, the availability of telephone and Internet voting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank, or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares live at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee.

How may my brokerage firm or other intermediary vote my shares if I fail to provide timely directions?

Brokerage firms and other intermediaries holding shares of our common stock in street name for their customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker will generally have discretion to vote your shares on our sole “routine” matter: the proposal to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are “non-routine” matters, absent direction from you (and failure to provide instructions on these matters will result in a “broker non-vote”).

3

Can I change my vote?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy any time before the Annual Meeting by:

•entering a new vote by Internet or by telephone; completing and returning a later-dated proxy card; notifying the Corporate Secretary of DoorDash, Inc., in writing, at DoorDash, Inc., 303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor, San Francisco, California 94107; or attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

•If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank, or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change your vote.

What do I need to do to attend the Annual Meeting?

You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting virtually, submit your questions during the meeting and vote your shares electronically at the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DASH2023. To participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the control number included on your Notice or proxy card. The Annual Meeting webcast will begin promptly at 10:00 am Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 am Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are being solicited by and on behalf of our board of directors. Tony Xu, Ravi Inukonda, and Tia Sherringham have been designated as proxy holders by our board of directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed, and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If the proxy is dated and signed, but no specific instructions are given, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors as described above. If any matters not described in this proxy statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned, the proxy holders can vote the shares at the adjourned Annual Meeting as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy, as described above.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we have elected to furnish our proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our annual report, primarily via the Internet. The Notice containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials is first being mailed on or about April 28, 2023 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders may request to receive all future proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail by following the instructions contained in the Notice. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of our proxy materials on the Internet to help reduce the environmental impact and cost of our annual meetings of stockholders.

How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting?

Our board of directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. All expenses associated with this solicitation will be borne by us. We will reimburse brokers or other nominees for reasonable expenses that they incur in sending our proxy materials to you if a broker, bank, or other nominee holds shares of our common stock on your behalf. In addition, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies by telephone, by electronic communication, or by other means of communication. Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

4

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?

We have adopted a procedure called “householding,” which the SEC has approved. Under this procedure, we deliver a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, to multiple stockholders who share the same address, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of such stockholders. Householding reduces our printing costs, mailing costs, and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our 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, or, if a stockholder is receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, such stockholder may contact us at:

DoorDash, Inc.

Attention: Corporate Secretary

303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor

San Francisco, California 94107

(650) 487-3970

Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank, or other nominee to request information about householding.

What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?

Stockholder Proposals

Stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals in writing to our Corporate Secretary in a timely manner. For a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written proposal at our principal executive offices not later than December 29, 2023. In addition, stockholder proposals that are intended to be included in our proxy materials must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to:

DoorDash, Inc.

Attention: Corporate Secretary

303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor

San Francisco, California 94107

(650) 487-3970

Our amended and restated bylaws also establish an advance notice procedure for stockholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders but do not intend for the proposal to be included in our proxy statement. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that the only business that may be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders is business that is (i) specified in our notice of

5

annual meeting (or any supplement thereto), (ii) otherwise properly brought before such annual meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors, or (iii) properly brought before such meeting by a stockholder of record entitled to vote at such annual meeting who has delivered timely written notice to our Corporate Secretary, which notice must contain the information specified in our amended and restated bylaws. To be timely for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice at our principal executive offices:

•not earlier than February 12, 2024; and

•not later than March 13, 2024.

In the event that we hold the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting, a notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day before the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the close of business on the later of the following two dates:

•the 90th day prior to the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders; or

•the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders is first made.

If a stockholder who has notified us of his, her, or its intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders does not appear to present his, her, or its proposal at such annual meeting, we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such annual meeting.

Recommendation or Nomination of Director Candidates

Holders of 1% of our fully diluted capitalization for at least 12 months prior to the submission of the recommendation may recommend director candidates for consideration by our nominating and corporate governance committee. Any such recommendations should include the nominee’s name and qualifications for membership on our board of directors and should be directed to our Corporate Secretary or legal department at the address set forth above. For additional information regarding stockholder recommendations for director candidates, see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance-Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to the Board of Directors.”

In addition, our amended and restated bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. To nominate a director, the stockholder must provide the information required by our amended and restated bylaws. In addition, the stockholder must give timely notice to our Corporate Secretary in accordance with our amended and restated bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Corporate Secretary within the time periods described above under the section titled “Stockholder Proposals” for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement. Any notice of director nomination submitted must include the additional information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.

Availability of Bylaws

A copy of our amended and restated bylaws is available via the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also contact our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth above for a copy of the relevant bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our business affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. As of April 21, 2023, our board of directors consisted of nine directors, six of whom qualified as “independent” under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). We have a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of approximately equal size, each serving staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors is elected at each annual meeting of stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. Each director’s term will continue until the end of such director’s three-year term and the election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation, or removal. Stan Meresman, who currently serves as a Class III director, is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting, and therefore his term on our board of directors will end at the Annual Meeting. The Company greatly appreciates Mr. Meresman's long and dedicated service as a director.

The following table sets forth the names, ages as of April 21, 2023, and certain other information for each of the directors with terms expiring at the Annual Meeting (three of whom are also nominees for election as a director at the Annual Meeting) and for each of the continuing members of our board of directors:

Director Independence

Under the listing standards of the NYSE, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, NYSE listing standards require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent. Under NYSE listing standards, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company).

Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning their background, employment, and affiliations, our board of directors has determined that Dr. Brown, Ms. Mertz, and Messrs. Doerr, Lin, Meresman, and Peters do not have a material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company), and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the listing standards of the NYSE. In making these determinations, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and any transactions involving them described in the section titled “Certain Relationships, Related Party and Other Transactions.”

Board Leadership Structure and Role of the Lead Independent Director

We believe that the structure of our board of directors and its committees provides strong overall management of our company. Mr. Xu currently serves as both the chairperson of our board of directors and as our chief executive officer. As our co-founder, Mr. Xu is best positioned to identify strategic priorities, lead critical discussions about our company’s strategy, risks and execution, and execute our business plans.

Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that provide that our board of directors may appoint an independent director as our lead independent director. If appointed, the lead independent director is responsible for calling separate meetings of the independent directors, reporting to our CEO and Chairperson of the Board from executive sessions and performing such other

10

responsibilities as may be designated by the board of directors from time to time. Because Mr. Xu, our chairperson, is not independent, our board of directors determined that it was advisable to appoint a lead independent director and in February 2021, our board of directors appointed Dr. Brown to serve as our lead independent director. The board of directors considered Dr. Brown’s demonstrated leadership during her tenure as a member of the board and also her contributions as a member of the nominating and corporate governance committee and the compensation committee, and the board of directors believes that Dr. Brown’s ability to act as a strong lead independent director provides balance in our leadership structure and will be in the best interest of DoorDash and its stockholders.

Only independent directors serve on the audit committee, the compensation committee, and the nominating and corporate governance committee of our board of directors. As a result of the board of directors’ committee system and the existence of a majority of independent directors, the board of directors believes it maintains effective oversight of our business operations, including independent oversight of our financial statements, executive compensation, selection of director candidates, and corporate governance programs. We believe that the leadership structure of our board of directors, including Dr. Brown’s role as lead independent director, as well as the strong independent committees of our board of directors is appropriate and enhances our board of directors’ ability to effectively carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of our stockholders, while Mr. Xu’s combined role enables strong leadership, creates clear accountability of management to our board of directors, and enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to stockholders.

Board Meetings and Committees

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our board of directors held five meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings). Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our board of directors held during the period for which he or she has been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our board of directors on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served.

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our board of directors at annual meetings of stockholders, we strongly encourage, but do not require, our directors to attend. All of our directors who were directors at the time of our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders attended our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, except for Mr. Lin.

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a leadership development, inclusion, and compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of our board of directors is described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until as otherwise determined by our board of directors.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee consists of Ms. Mertz and Messrs. Lin and Meresman, with Mr. Meresman serving as chairperson. Dr. Brown served on our audit committee from April 2022 until her resignation from our audit committee in July 2022. Following the end of Mr. Meresman's term as a director at the Annual Meeting, Ms. Mertz will become chairperson of our audit committee. Each member of the audit committee meets the requirements for independence under the listing standards of the NYSE and SEC rules and regulations and the financial literacy and sophistication requirements of the listing standards of the NYSE. In addition, our board of directors has determined that each of Ms. Mertz and Messrs. Lin and Meresman is an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act. Our audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

•appointing, compensating, retaining, and overseeing, and where appropriate, replacing the independent registered public accounting firm;

11

•helping to ensure the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm;

•reviewing and discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviewing, with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, our interim and year-end results of operations;

•reviewing and approving related party transactions; and

No member of our audit committee may serve on the audit committee of more than three public companies, including DoorDash, unless our board of directors determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such member to effectively serve on our audit committee and we disclose such determination in accordance with the listing standards of the NYSE.

Our audit committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. A copy of the charter for our audit committee is available on our website at ir.doordash.com. During 2022, our audit committee held five meetings.

Leadership Development, Inclusion, and Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Dr. Brown and Mr. Lin, with Mr. Lin serving as chairperson. Each member of our compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under the listing standards of the NYSE and SEC rules and regulations and is a non-employee director, as defined pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Our compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

•reviewing, approving, and determining, or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding, the compensation of our executive officers, including our chief executive officer, and certain other key employees;

•administering our equity compensation plans;

•reviewing, approving, and administering incentive compensation plans;

12

•establishing and reviewing general policies and plans relating to compensation and benefits of our employees, and overseeing our overall compensation philosophy;

•reviewing and making recommendations to our full board of directors regarding non-employee director compensation;

•evaluating the performance, or assisting in the evaluation of the performance, of our executive officers, including our chief executive officer; and

•periodically reviewing and discussing with our board of directors the corporate succession and development plans for executive officers and certain key employees.

Our compensation committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. A copy of the charter for our compensation committee is available on our website at ir.doordash.com. During 2022, our compensation committee held four meetings.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Dr. Brown and Messrs. Doerr and Peters, with Mr. Doerr serving as chairperson. Each member of the nominating and corporate governance committee meets the requirements for independence under the listing standards of the NYSE and SEC rules and regulations. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:

•identifying, evaluating, and selecting, or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding, nominees for election to our board of directors;

•considering and making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the composition of our board of directors and its committees;

•evaluating the performance and attendance of our board of directors and of individual directors;

•overseeing and reviewing developments in our corporate governance practices;

Our nominating and corporate governance committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. A copy of the charter for our nominating and corporate governance committee is available on our website at ir.doordash.com. During 2022, our nominating and corporate governance committee held five meetings.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our compensation committee is or has been an officer or employee of our company. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving on our board of directors or compensation committee.

Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees

Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for reviewing with the board of directors the appropriate characteristics, skills, and experience required for the board of directors as a whole and its individual members. Our nominating and corporate governance committee uses a variety of methods to identify and evaluate director nominees. Some of the qualifications that our nominating and corporate governance committee considers include, without limitation, issues of character, integrity, judgment, corporate experience, and diversity and other individual qualities and attributes that contribute to the total mix of viewpoints and experience represented on the board of directors, potential conflicts of interest, and other commitments. Nominees must also have the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity, have proven achievement and competence in their field and the ability to exercise sound business judgment, have skills that are complementary to those of the existing board of directors, the ability to assist and support management and make significant contributions to the our success, and understand the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a member of our board of directors and have sufficient time and energy necessary to diligently carry out those responsibilities. Members of our board of directors are expected to prepare for, attend, and participate in all board of directors and applicable committee meetings. Our nominating and corporate governance committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem, from time to time, are in our and our stockholders’ best interests.

In its evaluation of director candidates, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers the suitability of each director candidate, including current directors, in light of current size and composition, organization, and governance of our board of directors and the needs of our board of directors and the respective committees of our board of directors. Although we do not maintain a specific policy with respect to board diversity, our board of directors believes that our board of directors should be a diverse body, and our nominating and corporate governance committee considers a broad range of backgrounds and experiences. In making determinations regarding nominations of directors, our nominating and corporate governance committee may take into account the benefits of diverse viewpoints.

Our nominating and corporate governance committee also considers the above factors and other factors as it oversees the annual board of director and committee evaluations. After completing its review and evaluation of director candidates, including incumbent directors, our nominating and corporate governance committee recommends to our full board of directors the director nominees for selection.

Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to the Board of Directors

Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders holding at least one percent (1%) of the fully diluted capitalization of DoorDash, Inc. continuously for at least 12 months prior to the date of the submission of the recommendation, so long as such recommendations comply with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws, and applicable laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate any such recommendations in accordance with its charter, our amended and restated bylaws and our policies and procedures for director candidates, as well as the regular director nominee criteria described above. This process is designed to ensure that our board of directors includes members with diverse backgrounds, skills, and experience, including appropriate financial and other expertise relevant to our business. Eligible stockholders wishing to recommend a candidate for nomination should direct the recommendation in writing by letter to us, attention of the General Counsel, at 303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor, San Francisco, California 94107. Such recommendations must include the candidate’s name, home and business contact information, detailed biographical data, relevant qualifications, a statement of support by the recommending stockholder, a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve on our board of directors, information regarding any relationships between the candidate and our company, evidence of the recommending stockholder’s ownership of our capital stock, and any other information

14

required by our amended and restated bylaws. Our nominating and corporate governance committee has discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors.

Under our amended and restated bylaws, stockholders may also directly nominate persons for our board of directors. Any nomination must comply with the requirements set forth in our amended and restated bylaws and should be sent in writing to our Corporate Secretary at DoorDash, Inc. To be timely for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, nominations for persons to our board of directors must be received by our Corporate Secretary observing the same deadlines for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement, as discussed above under “What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?-Stockholder Proposals.” Any notice of director nomination submitted must include the additional information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.

Communications with the Board of Directors

Interested parties wishing to communicate with non-management members of our board of directors may do so by writing and mailing the correspondence to our General Counsel or legal department at DoorDash, Inc., 303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor, San Francisco, California 94107. Each communication should set forth (i) the name and address of the stockholder, as it appears on our books, and if the shares of our common stock are held by a broker, bank or nominee, the name and address of the beneficial owner of such shares, and (ii) the class and number of shares of our common stock that are owned of record by the record holder and beneficially by the beneficial owner.

Our General Counsel or legal department, in consultation with appropriate members of our board of directors as necessary, will review all incoming stockholder communications (except for mass mailings, product complaints or inquiries, job inquiries, business solicitations and patently offensive or otherwise inappropriate material) and, if appropriate, will route such communications to the appropriate member or members of our board of directors, or if none is specified, to the chairperson of our board of directors or the lead independent director.

Our General Counsel or legal department may decide in the exercise of their or its judgment whether a response to any stockholder communication is necessary and will provide a report to our nominating and corporate governance committee on a quarterly basis of any stockholder communications received for which the General Counsel or legal department has responded. This procedure for stockholder communications with non-management members of our board of directors is administered by our nominating and corporate governance committee.

This procedure does not apply to (i) communications to non-management directors from our officers or directors who are stockholders or (ii) stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, which are discussed further in the above section in this proxy statement titled “What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?-Stockholder Proposals”.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct

Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that address items such as the qualifications and responsibilities of our directors and director candidates, including independence standards, and corporate governance policies and standards applicable to us in general. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Conduct is posted on our website at ir.doordash.com. We will disclose any amendments to our Code of Conduct or

15

any waivers of the requirements of our Code of Conduct for directors and executive officers on the same website or in filings under the Exchange Act.

Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process

Risk is inherent with every business, and we face a number of risks, including strategic, financial, business and operational, legal and compliance, and reputational, in the pursuit and achievement of our strategic objectives. We have designed and implemented processes to manage risk in our operations. Management is responsible for the day-to-day oversight and management of strategic, operational, legal and compliance, cybersecurity, and financial risks, while our board of directors, as a whole and assisted by its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of our risk management framework, which is designed to identify, assess, and manage risks to which our company is exposed, as well as to foster a corporate culture of integrity. Consistent with this approach, our board of directors regularly reviews our strategic and operational risks in the context of discussions with management, question and answer sessions, and reports from the management team at each regular board meeting. Our board of directors also receives regular reports on all significant committee activities at each regular board meeting and evaluates the risks inherent in significant transactions.

In addition, our board of directors has tasked designated standing committees with oversight of certain categories of risk management. Our audit committee assists our board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance. Our audit committee also, among other things, discusses with management, the internal auditors, and the independent auditor guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, as well as potential conflicts of interest. The audit committee further oversees our initiatives related to cybersecurity, including prevention and monitoring. Our compensation committee assesses risks arising from our compensation philosophy and practices applicable to all employees to determine whether they encourage excessive risk-taking and evaluates policies and practices that could mitigate such risks. Our nominating and corporate governance committee assesses risks relating to our corporate governance practices and the independence of the board.

Our board of directors believes its current leadership structure supports the risk oversight function of the board. As Chair, Mr. Xu has primary responsibility for setting the agenda for meetings of the board of directors and his combined role as CEO and Chair gives him unique insight into the risk profile of the company, including emerging risks. The majority independent directors, including Dr. Brown as lead independent director, provide independent judgment and outside experience that enables the board of directors to effectively oversee the risk management of the Company.

ESG Board Oversight Framework

Our board of directors believes that strong corporate governance and a robust approach to ethics and compliance benefits our stakeholders and stockholders alike. Our board of directors and its committees oversee key areas of risk management, including overseeing relevant environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) initiatives and issues, such as initiatives to enhance data privacy and security, health and safety, public policy and engagement, and ethics and compliance.

Each of our board committees have an important role in the oversight of elements of our ESG program that are within the scope of its duties and responsibilities. Our nominating and corporate governance committee reviews the composition of our board and other governance policies and practices. Our compensation committee oversees certain aspects of our human capital management, including executive performance, talent development, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our audit committee oversees our overall risk profile and risk exposure, and monitors new and evolving risks to the Company including those related to ESG matters, financial matters, and cybersecurity. Our audit committee also

16

reviews developments in ethics and compliance policies and programs, highlights from internal investigations, and the effectiveness of our whistleblower and reporting channels.

A copy of our 2022 ESG update with further discussion of our ESG practices can be found on the Environmental, Social & Governance page of our website at ir.doordash.com. Our websites, reports and media channels are not part of and are not incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.

Director Compensation

In September 2020, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our Outside Director Compensation and Equity Ownership Policy (the “director compensation policy”) for our non-employee directors. The director compensation policy was developed with input from our independent compensation consultant, Semler Brossy Consulting Group LLC (“Semler Brossy”), regarding practices and compensation levels at the same group of peer companies used for executive compensation comparisons and is intended to attract, retain, and reward non-employee directors. In October 2022, our compensation committee reviewed the compensation opportunities for our non-employee directors pursuant to the director compensation policy, including a director compensation analysis of our compensation peer group prepared by Semler Brossy, and determined that no changes to the compensation of our non-employee directors were recommended. Additional information on the peer group can be found in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Compensation Discussion & Analysis-Overview of Factors Considered in Setting Executive Compensation-Peer Group and Competitive Positioning.”

Under the director compensation policy, each non-employee director will receive the cash and equity compensation for board services described below. We also will reimburse our non-employee directors for reasonable, customary, and documented travel expenses to meetings of our board of directors or its committee and other expenses.

Maximum Annual Compensation Limit

The director compensation policy includes a maximum annual limit of $750,000 of cash compensation and equity awards that may be paid, issued, or granted to a non-employee director in any fiscal year (increased to $1,000,000 in the non-employee director’s initial year of service as a non-employee director). For purposes of this limitation, the value of equity awards is based on the grant date fair value determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Any cash compensation paid or equity awards granted to a person for their service as an employee, or for their service as a consultant (other than as a non-employee director), will not count for purposes of the limitation. The maximum limit does not reflect the intended size of any potential compensation or equity awards to our non-employee directors.

Equity Ownership Guidelines

Additionally, each non-employee director is expected to comply with the minimum equity ownership guidelines as set forth in the director compensation policy. Our equity ownership guidelines provide that our non-employee directors must hold a number of shares of our common stock with a value equal to four times the annual cash retainer for service as a non-employee director. A non-employee director generally will have until the later of the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the policy or, if applicable, the date such non-employee director becomes a non-employee director to comply with the minimum stock ownership requirement. Our compensation committee may waive, at its discretion, these guidelines for non-employee directors joining our board of directors from government, academia, or similar professions. Our compensation committee may also temporarily suspend, at its discretion, the guidelines for one or more non-employee directors if compliance would create severe hardship or prevent such non-employee director from complying with a court order.

17

Cash Compensation

Under our director compensation policy, each non-employee director is paid an annual cash retainer of $60,000, which is paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis.

Under the policy, each non-employee director will be eligible to earn additional annual cash compensation for their additional services as follows:

•$40,000 per year for service as chairperson of our board of directors;

•$20,000 per year for service as a lead independent director;

•$15,000 per year for service as chair of our audit committee;

•$10,000 per year for service as chair of our compensation committee; and

•$5,000 per year for service as chair of our nominating and corporate governance committee.

For clarity, there are no per-meeting fees for attending board of directors or committee meetings. Cash compensation is paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis.

Equity Compensation

Initial Award. Each person who first becomes a non-employee director will receive, automatically on the twentieth day of the month that follows the date on which such person is appointed to our board of directors, an initial award (the “Initial Award” and the date the Initial Award is granted, the “Grant Date”) of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The Initial Award covers a number of shares of our Class A common stock equal to (i) $250,000 divided by (ii) the average fair market value of a share of our Class A common stock for the market trading days that occur in the completed calendar month immediately prior to the calendar month in which the Grant Date occurs, rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “New Director Award”). In addition, in the event that the date on which the non-employee director is appointed to our board of directors is not the date of an annual meeting of our stockholders, the Initial Award will cover an additional number of shares of our Class A common stock equal to (i) (A) $250,000 multiplied by (B) the fraction obtained by dividing (1) the number of days between the date such person is appointed to the board and the first anniversary of the most recent annual meeting of our stockholders by (2) 365, divided by (ii) the average fair market value of a share of our Class A common stock for the market trading days that occur in the completed calendar month immediately prior to the calendar month in which the Grant Date occurs, rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Pro-rated Annual Award”). The New Director Award will vest in equal monthly installments over the forty-eight months beginning on the first day of the month following the month in which such person is appointed to the board of directors subject to the non-employee director continuing to be a service provider through the applicable vesting date. The Pro-rated Annual Award will vest on the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the date the Pro-rated Annual Award is granted or (ii) the day prior to the date of the annual meeting next following the date the Initial Award is granted, in each case, subject to the non-employee director continuing to be a service provider through the applicable vesting date. If the person was a member of the board of directors and also an employee, becoming a non-employee director due to termination of employment will not entitle the non-employee director to an Initial Award.

Annual Award. Each non-employee director will automatically receive, on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, an annual award of RSUs, each of which we refer to as an “Annual Award”, covering a number of shares of our Class A common stock having a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with GAAP) of $250,000, rounded down to the nearest whole share. The Annual Award will vest on the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the date the Annual Award is granted or (ii) the day prior to the

18

date of the annual meeting next following the date the Annual Award is granted, in each case, subject to the non-employee director continuing to be a service provider through the applicable vesting date.

Each non-employee director may elect to defer the delivery of the settlement of any Initial Award or Annual Award that would otherwise be delivered to such non-employee director on or following the date such award vests pursuant to the terms of a deferral election such non-employee director makes in accordance with the policy.

In the event of a “change in control” (as defined in our 2020 Equity Incentive Plan), each non-employee director’s outstanding equity will be treated in accordance with the terms of each applicable award.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our board of directors is currently composed of nine members. We have a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of approximately equal size, each serving staggered three-year terms. As previously noted, Stan Meresman, who currently serves as a Class III director, is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting, and therefore his term on our board of directors will end at the Annual Meeting.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, approximately one-third of the directors of our board of directors will be elected to hold office until the expiration of the term for which they are elected and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Nominees

Our nominating and corporate governance committee has recommended, and our board of directors has approved, Shona L. Brown, Alfred Lin and Stanley Tang as nominees for election as directors at the Annual Meeting. If elected, Dr. Brown and Messrs. Lin and Tang will each serve as a director until the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Each of Dr. Brown and Messrs. Lin and Tang is currently a director of our company. For information concerning the relevant experiences, qualifications, attributes, and skills of the nominees that led our board of directors to recommend these persons as nominees for director, please see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance.” Dr. Brown and Messrs. Lin and Tang have consented to being named as nominees in the proxy statement and to continue to serve as directors, 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 designated by our board of directors to fill such vacancy.

If you are a stockholder of record and you sign your proxy card or vote by telephone or over the Internet but do not give instructions with respect to the voting of directors, your shares will be voted “FOR” the election of Dr. Brown and Messrs. Lin and Tang. If you are a street name stockholder and you do not give voting instructions to your broker or nominee, your broker will leave your shares unvoted on this matter.

Vote Required

Each director is elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. A majority of votes cast means that the voting power of the shares cast “For” a director’s election exceeds the voting power of the shares cast “Against” that director.You may vote “For” or “Against” the nominee for election as a director or you may “Abstain”. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. A director who does not receive a majority of the votes cast “For” election is required by our amended and restated bylaws to resign or will be subject to removal.

Resignation Requirement

Pursuant to our amended and restated bylaws, if a nominee for director in an election that is not a contested election fails to receive the required number of votes for re-election, the director shall, no later than 15 days following the certification of the stockholder vote (the “Resignation Deadline”), tender such director’s resignation from our board of directors. Prior to the date that our outstanding Class B common stock represents less than a majority of the total voting power of the company entitled to vote in elections of directors, if any nominee failing to be elected by the vote of the majority of the votes cast in an election that is not a contested election (i) tenders a resignation by the Resignation Deadline or (ii) does not tender a resignation by the Resignation Deadline, then the stockholders may take action via consent without a meeting to, in the case of clause (i), appoint a director to fill the vacancy resulting from the

22

resignation of such director (the “Resigned Director”) and, in the case of clause (ii), remove such director (the “Removed Director”) from our board of directors and, in such action (and only in such action), appoint a director to fill the vacancy resulting from the removal of the Removed Director, provided, that in each case such action by the stockholders without a meeting must be taken no later than 30 days following, in the case of clause (i), the effective date of such resignation and, in the case of clause (ii), the Resignation Deadline. In the event that a director is not appointed by the stockholders pursuant to the preceding sentence to fill the vacancy created by the Resigned Director or the Removed Director, as applicable, neither our board of directors nor the stockholders of may fill such vacancy until the next annual meeting of stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE NOMINEES NAMED ABOVE.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Our audit committee has appointed KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our consolidated financial statements for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. KPMG LLP has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2018.

At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Our audit committee is submitting the appointment of KPMG LLP to our stockholders because we value our stockholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. Notwithstanding the appointment of KPMG LLP, and even if our stockholders ratify the appointment, our audit committee, in its discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during our fiscal year if our audit committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of our company and our stockholders. If our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP, our board of directors may reconsider the appointment. Representatives of KPMG LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting, and they will have an opportunity to make a statement and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

Audit Committee Policy on Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Our audit committee has established a policy governing our use of the services of our independent registered public accounting firm. Under this policy, our audit committee is required to pre-approve all services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm in order to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the public accountants’ independence. All services provided by KPMG LLP for each of the years set forth in the above table were pre-approved by our audit committee in accordance with the policy.

Vote Required

The ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The audit committee is a committee of the board of directors comprised solely of independent directors as required by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The composition of the audit committee, the attributes of its members and the responsibilities of the audit committee, as reflected in its charter, are intended to be in accordance with applicable requirements for corporate audit committees. With respect to DoorDash’s financial reporting process, DoorDash’s management is responsible for (1) establishing and maintaining internal controls and (2) preparing DoorDash’s consolidated financial statements. DoorDash’s independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), is responsible for performing an independent audit of DoorDash’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. It is the responsibility of the audit committee to oversee these activities. It is not the responsibility of the audit committee to prepare DoorDash’s financial statements. These are the fundamental responsibilities of management. In the performance of its oversight function, the audit committee has:

•reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with management and KPMG;

•discussed with KPMG the matters required to be discussed by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC; and

•received the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence and has discussed with KPMG its independence.

Based on the audit committee’s review and discussions with management and KPMG LLP, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in DoorDash’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 for filing with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the audit committee of the board of directors:

Stan Meresman (Chair)

Elinor Mertz

Alfred Lin

This report of the audit committee is required by the SEC and, in accordance with the SEC’s rules, will not be deemed to be part of or incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference, and will not otherwise be deemed “soliciting material” or “filed” under either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

26

PROPOSAL NO. 3 - ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and SEC rules, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory or non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act. This proposal, commonly known as a “Say-on-Pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific named executive officer, but rather the overall compensation of all of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement.

The Say-on-Pay vote is advisory, and therefore is not binding on us, our compensation committee, or our board of directors. The Say-on-Pay vote will, however, provide information to us regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices, which our compensation committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation for the remainder of the current fiscal year and beyond. Our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders. To the extent there is any significant vote against the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will endeavor to communicate with stockholders to better understand the concerns that influenced the vote and consider our stockholders’ concerns, and our compensation committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

We believe that the information provided in the section titled “Executive Compensation,” and in particular the information discussed in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Compensation Discussion & Analysis-Our Compensation Philosophy,” demonstrates that our executive compensation program was designed appropriately and is working to ensure management’s interests are aligned with our stockholders’ interests to support long-term value creation. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote “For” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers, as disclosed in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the compensation discussion and analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion, and other related disclosure.”

Vote Required

The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers, requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect.

As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Name	Position

Executive Summary

Our mission is to grow and empower local economies. We aim to achieve this by providing logistics, technology, and other services that enable local businesses to address consumers’ expectations of ease and immediacy. Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain, and motivate our leadership team to fulfill this mission and execute on the unique opportunity we have to build products and services that transform local businesses and enrich the communities in which they operate. To do so, our leadership team is pursuing the following strategic objectives: (1) broadening our network of merchants through the addition of new categories and innovative services that help merchants grow; (2) increasing consumer adoption and making DoorDash a daily activity; and (3) building a reliable, high-quality, and operationally efficient logistics platform. We believe that our approach to executive compensation is aligned with that of stockholder and broader stakeholder interests, as the majority of compensation for our executive officers is delivered in equity, and in the case of our CEO, the majority is based on rigorous goals that if achieved would also represent significant returns for our stockholders.

2022 Financial & Operational Highlights

In 2022, we achieved several significant financial and operational results:

•Total Orders: Increased to 1.7 billion, an increase of 25% year-over-year.

•Marketplace Gross Order Volume (GOV): Increased to $53.4B, an increase of 27% year-over-year.*

•Revenue: Increased to $6.6B, an increase of 35% year-over-year

•Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA improved to $361 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $289 million in the year ended December 31, 2021.*

•Cash Flow: Net cash provided by operations was $367 million, compared to net cash provided by operations of $692 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Free cash flow was $21 million, compared to $455 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.*

*Please see the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2023, for a more detailed discussion of our fiscal year 2022 financial results and, beginning on page 60 of that Annual Report on Form 10-K, a discussion regarding, and reconciliation of, our non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures. Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities plus purchases of property and equipment and plus capitalized software and website development costs. For fiscal year 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was $367 million,

30

purchases of property and equipment were $176 million and capitalized software and website development costs were $170 million.

2022 Executive Compensation Highlights

Our executive compensation program is designed to be consistent with our executive compensation philosophy which is summarized below. Key highlights of our program for 2022 include:

•No Changes to Base Salary. We made no changes to the base salaries of our named executive officers ($300,000 for our CEO, and $350,000 for our other named executive officers). 

•Competitive Annual Equity Awards. In April 2022, as part of our annual review process, we granted RSUs to our named executive officers (other than our CEO) that vest over 4 years. Our CEO did not receive an annual grant of RSUs in 2022, consistent with our intentions in granting him a significant performance-based equity grant in 2020 that vests only if we achieve stretch stock price goals over a seven year performance period. This equity award is intended to be the exclusive equity award granted to Mr. Xu over the seven year performance period.

Say-on-Pay Results

At our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, we conducted our “say-on-pay” vote. Over 98% of the shares represented and entitled to vote on this proposal (excluding broker non-votes) voted to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers at last year’s annual meeting. Our compensation committee considers the result of the say-on-pay vote in determining named executive officer compensation. Based on the strong level of support for our executive compensation philosophy, program, and practices demonstrated by the result of last year’s say-on-pay vote, among other factors, our compensation committee determined to continue our implementation of our compensation philosophy and further emphasize our commitment to align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders. As a result, we did not make any significant changes to our executive compensation program in 2022.

We value the opinions of our stockholders. Our goal is to be responsive to our stockholders and ensure we understand and address their concerns and observations. Our compensation committee will consider the outcome of this year’s say-on-pay vote, as well as feedback received throughout the year, when making compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

At-Risk Pay

Compensation for our named executive officers is intended to be competitive with our compensation peer group and reward executives when performance is strong and value is created for our stockholders. To create meaningful alignment between our executives and our stockholders, most of the pay delivered to named executive officers is at-risk in the form of RSUs. Our CEO received $300,000 in salary, no bonus, no annual equity awards in 2022, and, in 2020, a one-time performance-based equity award that is contingent on stretch stock price goals, discussed in further detail below. Our other named executive officers received an average of 96% of their pay in the form of RSUs in 2022.

Our Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation philosophy is shaped by our strong belief that competitiveness, management longevity, long-term orientation and performance are key drivers to our success and to creating value for all of our stakeholders. The objective of our executive compensation program is to attract, retain, and incentivize highly talented individuals that embody our mission to grow and empower local economies. We do this by designing programs that tie executive compensation to individual performance, overall company performance, and the interests of our stakeholders, particularly through focusing our compensation philosophy and program primarily on the long-term elements of total compensation.

We use the following principles to accomplish our philosophy:

•Competitiveness: The importance of attracting and retaining critical talent. We operate in a highly competitive talent market, with many of our executives based in the San Francisco Bay area, and our pay programs are designed to be competitive to attract and retain a highly talented executive team that supports our trajectory.

•Management Longevity: We believe that management longevity is a key driver of long-term value creation. Our executive compensation programs are designed to retain our executives through equity awards that vest over four years and provide executives the opportunity to earn above-target compensation through the achievement of business objectives that help drive increases to our stock price and benefit stockholders.

•Long-Term Ownership: We want our executives thinking and acting like owners and focusing on long-term value creation for the company. We heavily weigh our total pay package towards equity so that our executive team is committed to their ownership and long-term success of the Company. As discussed below, prior to our IPO in 2020, our CEO was awarded a long-term performance award that vests only upon achievement of certain stock price objectives. In addition, our executive compensation program provided 96% of our other named executive officers’ compensation in the form of time-based equity awards in 2022. Our high percentage of at-risk pay also means that our executives earn below target compensation when our stock price declines.

•Strong Performance Orientation: We have a high standard for company performance. We also consider individual performance, criticality of position, and trajectory in sizing our equity grants for our executive officers. In 2022, we made annual equity grants to our named executive officers (other than our CEO) that vest over four years, and the value realized from those grants is dependent on the value of our stock price when the grants vest, enhancing the link between the interests of our executives and our stockholders.

Our Commitment to Best Practices

Our compensation philosophy is strengthened through strong compensation governance practices:

What We Do

✔100% of directors on our compensation committee are independent ✔Retain an independent compensation advisor who advises the compensation committee and provides no other services to the Company ✔A significant portion of compensation for named executive officers is at-risk, and the value realized by our executives is based on our stock price performance ✔Annual review of named executive officer compensation and competitive market data ✔Double-trigger change in control arrangements ✔Maintain a robust clawback policy to promote executive accountability ✔Assess the risk-reward balance of our compensation programs to mitigate undue risks

✗No pension plans or supplemental retirement plans for named executive officers ✗No hedging or pledging of our stock by directors or employees ✗No excessive perquisites ✗No excise tax gross-ups upon a change in control ✗No guaranteed bonuses

Our Compensation-Setting Process

Our compensation process is collaborative and involves the review and input of both internal and external stakeholders. Our compensation committee, its independent advisor Semler Brossy, other independent board members, our management team (except with respect to their own compensation) and our CEO (except with respect to his own compensation) each provides valuable input and perspectives that are used to make executive compensation decisions. We believe this approach allows us to leverage the diverse experience and expertise of these groups for setting compensation levels, and identifying metrics to use and how value should be delivered to executive officers when performance expectations are met or exceeded.

Setting compensation each year for our executives generally includes the following steps:

January to April

Setting Current Year Pay

•Each year, our CEO makes recommendations to the compensation committee for salary levels and equity grants for the upcoming year for each named executive officer (except with respect to his own compensation). Our compensation committee considers the performance, criticality, and trajectory of each executive officer, internal pay equity, and competitive market data from our peer companies and company performance against strategic goals. Based on this review, the compensation committee provides feedback and makes adjustments as necessary before final approval.

•After considering compensation committee feedback, our CEO presents final recommendations to the compensation committee which are then reviewed and approved.

33

October to December Reviewing our Program •In the second half of each year we, in consultation with Semler Brossy, engage in a rigorous selection of comparable peers to inform compensation levels and program design. We endeavor to select companies we compete against for executive talent that are similar in size, scope and complexity. •We also review our broader compensation philosophy and appropriateness of the incentive plans to assess their competitiveness with the market and alignment with our long-term strategy. May to September Evaluating our Practices •Throughout the year, we review changes in our business, market conditions, and the scope of both our executive officers’ roles and all other members of our broader management team. If a member of our management team is promoted to an executive officer level role during the year, we will revisit compensation for that person in connection with his or her promotion.

Overview of Factors Considered in Setting Executive Compensation

Peer Group and Competitive Positioning

The compensation committee assesses the competitiveness of each element of the executive officers’ total direct compensation against the compensation peer group, as discussed below, as well as taking into account Radford survey data. This assessment is one of several factors that our compensation committee considers when it sets pay levels for our executive officers.

While we do not establish compensation levels solely based on a review of competitive data, we believe market data is a helpful reference to assess the competitiveness and appropriateness of our executive compensation program and our goals of attracting and retaining qualified executive officers. When making its compensation decisions, our compensation committee applies its own business judgment and experience and also considers a number of other factors, including: company performance; each executive’s impact and criticality to our strategy and mission; relative scope of responsibility and potential; individual performance and demonstrated leadership; and internal pay equity considerations.

2022 Peer Group

In July 2021, we reviewed our compensation peer group to consider whether any adjustments were appropriate prior to setting compensation for 2022. Following this review, we removed two companies (Dropbox and Slack) from our compensation peer group based on updated criteria that includes revenue, growth rates, and market capitalization, with an emphasis on companies that operate similar marketplace business models. Our executive compensation peer group used for setting 2022 compensation was comprised of the following companies:

• Airbnb • Block • Carvana • Chewy • eBay • Etsy • Instacart • Lyft • Match • Pinterest • Shopify • Snap • Spotify • Stripe • Twitter • Uber • Wayfair • Zillow

Key Decision Makers

Primary Roles and Responsibilities

Compensation Consultant

•Attend meetings at the request of the compensation committee, meet with the compensation committee in executive session without management, and communicate with compensation committee regarding compensation trends, emerging issues, regulatory developments, and other matters; •Provide advice relating to: -Competitiveness of key executives’ compensation -Annual and long-term incentive plans, including degree to which incentive plans support business strategies and balance risk-taking with potential reward -Peer group development and updates -Peer group pay comparisons -Changes to named executive officers’ compensation levels -Design of other compensation and benefits programs -Compensation-related governance items -Preparation of public filings related to executive compensation, including CD&A and accompanying tables and footnotes; and •Does not provide any services to us other than the services provided to the compensation committee and our board of directors. Note: The compensation committee assessed the independence of Semler Brossy taking into account, among other things, the enhanced independence standards and factors set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, and concluded that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the work that Semler Brossy performs for the compensation committee and that Semler Brossy satisfies the independence standards under the New York Stock Exchange.

Elements of Executive Pay and 2022 Compensation

Consistent with our compensation philosophy, our compensation program for 2022 consisted primarily of base salary and long-term equity compensation in the form of RSUs. Through this program, we maintained our primary focus on the long-term elements of total direct compensation, as reflected in our continued positioning of base salary below market levels and our decision to continue our practice of not granting bonuses or other short-term incentives to named executive officers. We also provide certain other benefits, as described under the heading “Other Benefits”.

Base Salary

We use base salary to provide a fixed amount of compensation for our named executive officers in exchange for their services. We position base salary for our named executive officers below market levels, emphasizing instead at-risk equity compensation as the primary vehicle for delivering compensation to our named executive officers. In 2022, our named executive officers’ base salaries remained at $350,000 per year (other than our CEO whose salary is $300,000), after considering market data for their positions and to create internal equity among the management team with respect to a named executive officer’s fixed compensation and make distinctions between roles, responsibilities, and contributions through equity awards.

36

Executive	FY22 Salary
Tony Xu – Chief Executive Officer	$	300,000
Prabir Adarkar – Former Chief Financial Officer; Current Chief Operating Officer and President	$	350,000
Christopher Payne – Former Chief Operating Officer and President	$	350,000
Keith Yandell – Chief Business Officer	$	350,000
Tia Sherringham – General Counsel and Secretary	$	350,000

Bonus

Since 2021, we have not provided a cash bonus or other short-term incentive compensation to our named executive officers.

Long-Term Incentive

Our equity award program is the primary vehicle used to differentiate compensation among our named executive officers. We grant equity awards in the form of RSUs that are settled in shares of our Class A common stock on or after vesting. We believe that these equity awards align the interests of our named executive officers with our stockholders, provide our named executive officers with incentives linked to long-term performance, and foster an ownership mentality. In addition, the long-term vesting features of our equity awards support our belief in management longevity because they create retentive hold.

Generally, we intend to grant annual equity awards that are sized to be competitive and transparent and reflect the performance, contribution, and criticality of roles in our company. Our CEO annually reviews and considers external market data in addition to performance of the executives when proposing equity grants to our compensation committee. Our compensation committee exercises its judgment and discretion, in consultation with our CEO and our independent compensation consultant. To determine the size and types of equity awards that it approves, our compensation committee considers, among other things, the role and responsibility of the named executive officer, competitive factors, the vested and unvested value of the equity awards held by the named executive officer, and the cash-based compensation opportunities for our named executive officers.

In April 2022, our compensation committee approved equity grants in the following amounts to our named executive officers (excludes CEO - see “2020 CEO Performance Award Update” section below):

Executive	FY22 Equity(1)
Tony Xu – Chief Executive Officer	$	—
Prabir Adarkar – Former Chief Financial Officer and Current Chief Operating Officer and President	$	9,333,527
Christopher Payne – Former Chief Operating Officer and President	$	9,333,527
Keith Yandell – Chief Business Officer	$	5,703,846
Tia Sherringham – General Counsel and Secretary	$	15,513,240

(1) Pursuant to our equity award grant policy as then in effect, the number of RSUs underlying each award was calculated based on the average closing price of a share of our Class A common stock for the market trading days that occurred in March 2022.

With the exception of certain awards made to Ms. Sherringham in connection with her promotion and described below, the awards described above vest over four years, with 25% of the award vesting on or after the one-year anniversary of the award’s vesting commencement date and an additional 1/16th of the award vesting on each company quarterly vesting date thereafter, subject to continued service.

Grants made in connection to Ms. Sherringham’s promotion to the position of General Counsel and Secretary

37

Ms. Sherringham was promoted to the role of General Counsel and Secretary effective January 1, 2022. To recognize her appointment to this role the compensation committee approved, based in part on our CEO’s recommendation, equity awards totaling $15,513,240 to Ms. Sherringham. In determining the value and vesting schedule of Ms. Sherringham’s equity awards, Mr. Xu and the compensation committee considered the responsibilities and strategic importance of the General Counsel and Secretary role at DoorDash, Ms. Sherringham’s performance, external market data from our peers, and the value and vesting schedule of existing equity relative to external and internal benchmarks. For more information on the specific vesting schedule for the awards granted, see “Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2022”.

2020 CEO Performance Award Update

In November 2020, our board of directors, in consultation with Semler Brossy, granted an RSU award to Mr. Xu covering 10,379,000 shares of our Class A common stock, which we refer to below as the 2020 CEO Performance Award. This award reflected a determination by our compensation committee (based on an in-depth review) that it would be in the best interests of our stockholders and other stakeholders that we establish a performance-based equity award with vesting terms that are designed to incentivize Mr. Xu to execute on our long term strategic objectives and build stockholder value. To achieve this alignment, the 2020 CEO Performance Award was designed around the following principles:

• Cover seven years of equity awards: The 2020 CEO Performance Award is intended to be the exclusive equity award to Mr. Xu over the seven year performance period of the award unless there are unexpected changes in our business or other unforeseen factors that our board of directors determines would merit granting additional equity awards to him.

• Incentivize creating long-term growth: The 2020 CEO Performance Award is only eligible to vest based on our long-term stock price performance. The performance period began on June 9, 2022 which was one and one-half years following the grant date, and ends on the seventh anniversary of the grant date which is November 23, 2027. Furthermore, Mr. Xu must hold any after-tax shares that are issued to him pursuant to the award for at least two years following the date the portion of the award vests.

• Require sustained performance for vesting: The 2020 CEO Performance Award is divided into nine tranches that are eligible to vest based on the achievement of stock price goals measured using an average of our stock price over a consecutive 180-day period during the performance period.

• Require stretch performance: No portion of the 2020 CEO Performance Award will vest unless our stock price (as measured based on the formula described in the previous bullet) is $187.60/share, and the 2020 CEO Performance Award will vest in full only if our stock price is $501.00/share (as measured based on the formula described in the previous bullet). These amounts reflect increases in share price of 183% and almost 500% from our initial public offering price of $102.00/share, respectively. Compared to our share price of $48.82 on 12/30/2022, these values reflect increases in share price of 383% and over 1000%, respectively.

• Promote CEO retention: The 2020 CEO Performance Award is eligible to vest only if Mr. Xu is our CEO as of the applicable achievement date. If Mr. Xu’s employment as our CEO terminates, any portion of the 2020 CEO Performance Award for which a stock price target has not been achieved will immediately terminate and will be forfeited to us subject to certain potential exceptions in the case of a Change in Control, as described further below in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” section of this Proxy Statement

In 2022, none of the tranches of the 2020 CEO Performance Award were earned. The earliest potential vesting date to earn any of the tranches began in December 2022. Any shares earned after taxes will be subject to a two-year holding requirement, pursuant to the award terms.

38

For more information on the 2020 CEO Performance Award, please refer to page 54 of our annual proxy statement filed on May 2, 2022.

Benefits

Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in the same benefits programs offered to all employees, and it is generally our philosophy not to provide perquisites to our named executive officers. In 2022, our named executive officers received a gross-up for taxable income incurred through participating in the company’s meal benefit provided to all office-based employees. All US-based employees were eligible to receive this tax gross-up in 2022.

Other Compensation Information

Employment Arrangements

Each of our named executive officers has entered into a written employment letter with us. The employment letters do not have a specific term and provide that employment is at-will. The current base salary of our named executive officers can be found on page xx of this proxy statement.

Post-Employment Compensation

We maintain an Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan (hereafter “Executive Severance Plan”), pursuant to which our executive officers and certain other key employees are eligible to receive severance benefits, as specified in and subject to the employee signing a participation agreement under our Executive Severance Plan. This Executive Severance Plan was developed with input from our compensation consultant regarding severance practices at comparable companies, and is designed to serve our retention objectives by providing protection to our executives and other key employees so they can maintain continued focus and dedication to their responsibilities to maximize stockholder value, including during potentially uncertain periods. We believe the benefits provided pursuant to the Executive Severance Plan are consistent with the benefits offered by companies with whom we compete for talent, and accordingly allow us to attract and retain the highest level of talented and experienced executive officers. The Executive Severance Plan generally will be in lieu of any other severance payments and benefits to which such key employee was entitled prior to signing the participation agreement, except as specifically provided under that employee’s participation agreement under the Executive Severance Plan.

Our board of directors has designated each of our named executive officers as a participant under our Executive Severance Plan eligible for the rights to the applicable payments and benefits described in the section titled “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Deductibility of Executive Compensation. Generally, Section 162(m) of the Code limits the amount we may deduct from our federal income taxes for compensation paid to our chief executive officer and certain other current and former executive officers that are “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code to $1 million per individual per year, except to the extent provided in limited transition relief. In approving the amount and form of compensation for our named executive officers, we generally consider all elements of the cost to us of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 162(m) of the Code, as well as our need to maintain flexibility in compensating executive officers in a manner designed to promote our goals. We may, in our judgment, authorize compensation payments that will or may not be deductible when we believe that such payments are appropriate to attract, retain or motivate executive talent.

Taxation of Parachute Payments and Deferred Compensation. We do not provide, and have no obligation to provide, any executive officer, including any named executive officer, with a “gross-up” or other reimbursement payment for any tax liability that he or she might owe as a result of the application of Section 280G, 4999, or 409A of the Code. If any of the payments or benefits provided for under the change of control and severance agreements or otherwise payable to a named executive officer would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, he or she would be entitled to receive either full payment of such payments and benefits or such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payments and benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to the named executive officer.

39

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. We follow ASC Topic 718 for our stock-based compensation awards. ASC Topic 718 requires us to measure the compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to our employees and members of our board of directors, including options to purchase our equity securities and other stock awards, based on the grant date “fair value” of these awards. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the executive compensation tables required by the federal securities laws, even though the recipient of the awards may never realize any value from their awards.

Hedging and Pledging Policies. We have established an Insider Trading Policy, which, among other things, prohibits short sales, engaging in transactions in publicly-traded options (such as puts and calls) and other derivative securities relating to our common stock. This prohibition extends to any hedging or similar transaction designed to decrease the risks associated with holding our securities. In addition, our named executive officers are prohibited from pledging any of our securities as collateral for a loan and from holding any of our securities in a margin account.

Clawback Policy. We adopted a robust clawback policy in 2021. Under our clawback policy, our compensation committee or our board of directors may seek to recover cash or equity compensation, or severance or termination payments, paid to an executive officer or certain other direct reports to our CEO in the prior 12 months (or, in the case of a restatement, in the period covered by the restatement) in connection with an accounting restatement as a result of material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement as a result of fraud, gross negligence or intentional misconduct, or as a result of the officer’s misconduct that harms the business or reputation of the company. In 2023, we expect that we will make updates and/or adopt a new policy pursuant to the new Rule 10D-1 adopted in 2022.

Risk Assessment. Each year, our compensation committee reviews the company’s compensation plans to identify potential material adverse risks to the company. Included in the review are all bonus and commission plans and equity plans. In 2022, our compensation committee did not find any plans to have material adverse risks that needed to be disclosed.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Our board of directors adopted an Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan (our “Executive Severance Plan”), pursuant to which our executive officers and certain other key employees are eligible to receive severance benefits, as specified in and subject to the employee signing a participation agreement under our Executive Severance Plan. This Executive Severance Plan is designed to serve our retention objectives by providing protection to our executives and other key employees so they can maintain continued focus and dedication to their responsibilities to maximize stockholder value, including during potentially uncertain periods. The Executive Severance Plan generally will be in lieu of any other severance payments and benefits to which such key employee was entitled prior to signing the participation agreement, except as specifically provided under that employee’s participation agreement under the Executive Severance Plan.

Our board of directors has designated each of our executive officers as a participant under our Executive Severance Plan eligible for the rights to the applicable payments and benefits described below.

In the event of an “involuntary termination” of the employment of a named executive officer by us for a reason other than “cause” or the named executive officer’s death or “disability” (as such terms are defined in our Executive Severance Plan), that occurs outside the change in control period (as described below), the named executive officer will be entitled to the following payments and benefits:

•continuing payments of the named executive officer’s annual base salary for a period of 12 months; and

•a lump sum payment equal to, on an after-tax basis (i.e., on a gross-up basis), the premium cost of continued health coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1985 as amended (“COBRA”) for a period of 12 months.

In the event of an “involuntary termination” of the employment of a named executive officer by us for a reason other than “cause” or the named executive officer’s death, “disability” or resignation by the named executive officer for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in our Executive Severance Plan), in each case, during the three months prior to or 12 months following a “change in control” (as defined in our Executive Severance Plan) (such period, the “change in control period”), the named executive officer will be entitled to the following payments and benefits:

•a lump sum payment equal to 12 months of the named executive officer’s annual base salary;

•a lump sum payment equal to, on an after-tax basis (i.e., on a gross-up basis), the cost of continued health coverage under COBRA for a period of 12 months; and

•100% accelerated vesting of all outstanding equity awards, and, with respect to equity awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals or other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels for the relevant performance period(s).

The receipt of the payments and benefits provided for under the Executive Severance Plan described above is conditioned on the named executive officer signing and not revoking a separation and release of claims agreement and such release becoming effective and irrevocable no later than the 60th day following the named executive officer’s involuntary termination of employment, as well as compliance with certain non-disparagement provisions and continued compliance with the invention assignment and confidentiality agreement applicable to the named executive officer.

In addition, if any of the payments or benefits provided for under the Executive Severance Plan or otherwise payable to a named executive officer would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, the named executive officer will receive either full payment of such payments and benefits or such lesser amount that would

45

result in no portion of the payments and benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to them. Except as discussed above, the Executive Severance Plan does not require us to provide any tax gross-up payments to the named executive officers.

The following table sets forth the potential payments that would have been provided to each of our named executive officers under each of the circumstances specified below if he or she had terminated employment with DoorDash effective December 31, 2022.

CEO Pay Ratio

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following comparison between the annual total compensation of our median employee and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer in 2022. The following information about the relationship between the total annual compensation of our median employee and the total annual compensation of our Chief Executive Officer is a reasonable estimate calculated in accordance with item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

In 2022, the total annual compensation of our median employee was $79,737 and the total annual compensation of our Chief Executive Officer was $300,221. This results in a ratio of approximately 1:4. Total annual compensation for the median employee and our Chief Executive Officer is calculated according to the disclosure requirements of the Summary Compensation Table and includes base salary, annual incentive, equity awards, and other compensation such as perquisites.

To identify the median employee, we reviewed the compensation of all full-, part-time and temporary employees who were employed as of November 1, 2022 (the “Determination Date”). We determined our

46

median employee by reviewing actual cash compensation paid in 2022 as of the Determination Date plus the grant date fair value of equity awards issued in 2022 as of the Determination Date. We did not make any adjustment to annualize compensation. For employees based outside of the United States, we converted pay into USD using the exchange rate on the Determination Date. As permitted by SEC rules, we excluded 5,895 employees who joined the company in connection with our acquisition of Wolt Enterprises Oy in May 2022.

In selecting the median employee in accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, reporting companies are permitted to use reasonable estimates, assumptions, and methodologies based on their own facts and circumstances. As a result, the disclosure regarding the compensation of our median employee and the CEO Pay Ratio may not be directly comparable to similar disclosure by other reporting companies.

Pay vs. Performance

This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with the SEC’s pay versus performance rules in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K under the 1934 Act (“Item 402(v)”) and may not be the same value as the compensation actually realized by our named executive officers. Additionally, the compensation values in this table are generally not a factor in how our compensation committee evaluates compensation decisions when reviewing compensation relative to our company performance. For more information on how our compensation committee seeks to align pay with performance see the section titled “Our Compensation Philosophy.”.

The following tables and related disclosures provide information about (i) the total compensation (“SCT Total”) of our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and our non-PEO named executive officers (collectively, the “Other NEOs”) as presented in the Summary Compensation Table, (ii) the “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) to our PEO and our Other NEOs, as calculated pursuant to Item 402(v), (iii) certain financial performance measures, and (iv) the relationship of the CAP to those financial performance measures

Adjustments to Calculate Compensation Actually Paid to PEO (Column (c)) and Average Compensation Actually Paid to Other NEOs (Column (e))

The table below describes the adjustments, each of which is required by SEC rules, to calculate CAP amounts from the SCT Total of our PEO (Column (b)) and our Other NEOs (Column (d)). The SCT Total and CAP amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our executives during the applicable years, but rather are amounts determined in accordance with Item 402(v). For a more representative view of the amount of compensation actually realized by our NEOs, see “Options Exercised and Stock Vested” of this proxy statement. With respect to CAP to our PEO, the assumptions and methodology used to calculate the fair value of equity awards in this table are consistent with the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value when the award was granted.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 31, 2023 for:

•each of our directors;

•each of our named executive officers;

•all of our current directors and executive officers as a group; and

•each person or group known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A or Class B common stock.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and thus it represents sole or shared voting or investment power with respect to our securities. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable.

We have based our calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership on 362,027,116 shares of our Class A common stock, 27,727,840 shares of our Class B common stock, and no shares of our Class C common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2023. We have deemed shares of our common stock subject to stock options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 31, 2023 or issuable pursuant to RSUs which are subject to vesting and settlement conditions expected to occur within 60 days of March 31, 2023, to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the stock option or RSU for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o DoorDash, Inc., 303 2nd Street, South Tower, 8th Floor, San Francisco, California 94107. The information provided in the table is based on our records, information filed with the SEC and information provided to us, except where otherwise noted.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED PARTY AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

In addition to the compensation arrangements, including employment, termination of employment, and change in control arrangements, discussed in the sections titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance-Director Compensation” and “Executive Compensation,” the following is a description of each transaction and series of similar transactions, since the beginning of our last fiscal year, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

•the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

•any of our directors, nominees for director, executive officers or beneficial holders of more than 5% of any class of our outstanding capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals or entities, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Investors’ Rights Agreement

We are party to our Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement dated June 17, 2020, which provides, among other things, that certain holders of our capital stock, including entities affiliated with Kleiner and Sequoia Capital, have the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their shares of our capital stock be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing. John Doerr and Alfred Lin, members of our board of directors, are or have been affiliated with Kleiner and Sequoia Capital, respectively.

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions

Our audit committee has the primary responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving “related party transactions,” which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Our policy regarding transactions between us and related persons will provide that a related person is defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director, or greater than 5% beneficial owner of our common stock, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed year, and any of their immediate family members. Our audit committee charter provides that our audit committee shall review and approve or disapprove any related party transactions.

Under this policy, all related person transactions may be consummated or continued only if approved or ratified by our audit committee. In determining whether to approve or ratify any such proposal, our audit committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, (i) whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction. The policy grants standing pre-approval of certain transactions, including (i) executive compensation governed by our standard compensation and benefits policies, (ii) director compensation arrangements governed by our standard director compensation policies, (iii) transactions with another company at which a related person’s only relationship is as an employee, other than an executive officer or director, or beneficial owner of less than 10% equity interest of that company, if the aggregate amount involved does not exceed the greater of $200,000 or 2% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues, (iv) charitable contributions, grants or endowments by us to a charitable organization, foundation or university where the related person’s only relationship is as an employee, other than an executive officer or director, if the aggregate amount involved does not exceed the lesser of $1,000,000 or 2% of the charitable organization’s total annual receipts, (v) any transaction available to all U.S. employees generally, and (vi) transactions where a related person’s interest arises solely from the ownership of our common stock and all holders of our common stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis.
