Good morning. Welcome to Alteryx's 2021 annual meeting of stockholders. I'd like to turn the meeting over to Alteryx's Executive Chairman, Dean Stoecker. Thank you. I'd also like to welcome you to Alteryx's 2021 annual meeting of stockholders. I'm Dean Stoecker, Executive Chairman and Chairman of the Board at Alteryx. 2020 was a year of change for everyone, and Alteryx was no exception. Having transitioned to Executive Chairman, it has been my privilege to continue to guide Alteryx in this capacity and observe Mark Anderson, our Chief Executive Officer, and his executive team begin to make transformational changes to scale Alteryx's product, operations, and customer focus, and deliver significant business value to the power of analytics and automation. We look forward to capitalizing on these transformations to accelerate customer insight and create stockholder value. I would now like to turn the meeting over to Mark Anderson. Thank you, Dean. As Dean mentioned, I'm Mark Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of Alteryx. I will serve as Chairman of the meeting. On behalf of our directors, officers, and associates, I thank you for attending our second virtual annual meeting. As we did in 2020, we elected this year to hold a virtual-only meeting due to public health impact of the coronavirus pandemic and to support the health and wellbeing of our stockholders and other meeting participants. I'd like to take a minute to thank our exceptional associates for continuing to support our business operations from their homes over the past year. Alteryx has, and will continue to, put health, safety, and security of our people first. I'm proud of our associates' commitment to resilience throughout 2020 and into 2021 in delivering for our customers, communities, and stockholders, even while adjusting to work from home and other challenges during this time. Before we get started with the business portion of the meeting, Mr. Lal, who is our Chief Legal Officer and who has been appointed as Secretary for our annual meeting, will now go over a few mechanics for our virtual meeting and provide you with a brief overview of how the process will work today. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Our goal is to run this meeting similar to our in-person meetings. On the welcome screen under Materials, you will find copies of our annual report and proxy statement, as well as rules of conduct for this meeting. We ask that all participants review and observe the rules of conduct. If you'd like to submit a question at any time during the meeting, you may do so by clicking the Q&A message icon located in the bottom right-hand corner of your welcome screen. We will respond to appropriate questions submitted during the question and answer portion of the meeting immediately following our formal business. Additionally, if you haven't voted your shares, stockholders may now cast their votes by clicking on the voting icon located in the bottom right-hand corner of your welcome screen, selecting the desired voting option for each proposal, and clicking Submit Vote to finalize and submit your selections. The voting polls are now open and will remain open for several minutes until the conclusion of the introduction and description of the formal items of business. Should you experience any challenges navigating this site or the online voting process, please call the technical support phone number provided in the rules of conduct and noted in the supplemental proxy materials. Now, the chairman will provide a few introductions and begin the business portion of the meeting. Thank you. I would like to introduce the members of our board of directors who are present today via this live webcast. Kimberly Alexy, John Bellizzi, Charles Cory, Jeff Horing, Anjali Joshi, Timothy Maudlin, Eileen Schloss, and Dean Stoecker. I would also like to introduce company officers present today. Kevin Rubin, Chief Financial Officer, Chris Lal, our Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary. As mentioned earlier, Mr. Lal has been appointed to serve as Secretary of this meeting. Representing our independent accountants, Deloitte & Touche LLP, is Adam Parrish. Turning to the business at hand, the annual meeting of stockholders will now come to order. Mr. Lal, could you please report on the requirements to properly conduct this meeting? Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The board of directors set March 19th, 2021, as the record date to determine those stockholders entitled to notice of this meeting and entitled to vote at this meeting. Notice of the meeting and the proxy statement, together with proxy cards and the annual report for 2020, were made available to all stockholders beginning on March 31, 2021.

Copies of the proxy statement and annual report were made available online at Alteryx's investor relations website on March 31st, 2021, and through proxyvote.com. In addition, Broadridge Financial Solutions, which acted as the company's mailing agent for the annual meeting of stockholders, has provided me with an affidavit of mailing. As of the record date of March 19th, 2021, there were 59,066,852 shares of Class A common stock and 8,003,630 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at this meeting.

Following this meeting, Ms. Skoglund will submit to me a certificate of inspector of elections certifying the results from the meeting.
