INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 4.01         Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a) Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On March 15, 2022 (the “Dismissal Date”), the audit committee of the board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Olo Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The reports of EY on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and through the Dismissal Date, there were no disagreements with EY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of EY, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements of the Company for such years.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and through the Dismissal Date, there were no “reportable events” (as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except that, as previously disclosed, there was a material weakness for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 in the Company's internal control over financial reporting related to the lack of properly designed controls around complex technical accounting matters within the Company’s financial statement close process. This reportable event was discussed among the Audit Committee and EY. EY has been authorized by the Company to respond fully to the inquiries of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), the successor independent registered public accounting firm, concerning this reportable event.

The Company provided EY with a copy of the disclosure it is making herein and requested that EY furnish the Company with a copy of their letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) stating whether EY agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Current Report on Form 8-K. EY has furnished the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating that it agrees with the above statements, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 16.1 herewith.

(b) Appointment of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Also on March 15, 2022, the Audit Committee, based on management’s recommendation, approved the selection of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, subject to completion of Deloitte’s standard client acceptance procedures and execution of an engagement letter.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and through the Dismissal Date, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted Deloitte regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Deloitte concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event” as those terms are defined in Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
