THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of March 22, 2021 (the
“Effective Date”), by and between Alkami Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Doug Linebarger (“Executive”). This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Executive
Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company, dated March 5, 2018 (as amended, the “Prior Agreement”). 

R E C I T A L S 
 WHEREAS,
the Company desires to enter into an agreement documenting the terms of Executive’s continued employment with the Company as Chief Legal Officer; 

WHEREAS, Executive also desires to document the terms and enter into such an agreement; 

WHEREAS, Executive acknowledges Executive’s continuing obligations under the Employee Proprietary Information Agreement between Executive
and the Company, dated March 5, 2018 (the “EPIA”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company considers it essential to its best
interests and the best interests of its stockholders to employ Executive as the Chief Legal Officer of the Company for the term of this Agreement; and 

WHEREAS, Executive is willing to continue employment with the Company on the terms hereinafter set forth in this Agreement. 

A G R E E M E N T 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Duties and Scope of Employment. 

(a) Positions and Duties. On the Effective Date, Executive will continue employment with the Company as the Chief Legal Officer of the
Company. Executive will report directly to the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”). Executive shall provide senior leadership and support in the day to day legal, compliance and information security
operations of the Company, shall perform business and professional services as are customarily associated with the position of Chief Legal Officer, and shall perform such other duties and functions as shall from time to time be reasonably assigned
or delegated to Executive by the CEO or the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The period of Executive’s employment under this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Employment Term.” 












 (b) Obligations. During the Employment Term, Executive will perform the assigned
duties faithfully and to the best of Executive’s ability and will devote Executive’s full business efforts and time to the Company. For the duration of the Employment Term, Executive agrees not to engage in any other employment, occupation
or consulting activity for any direct or indirect remuneration without the prior approval of the Board, provided that Executive may serve as a compensated member of the board of directors of a third party of Executive’s choosing so long
as such third party does not present a conflict of interest and Executive receives prior written consent of the CEO, with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 

2. At-Will Employment. Subject to Sections 7, 8 and 9 below, the Company agrees to employ
Executive, and Executive agrees to serve the Company, on an “at-will” basis, which means that either the Company or Executive may terminate Executive’s employment with the Company at any time
and for any or no reason. 
 3. Compensation. 

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company will pay Executive as compensation for Executive’s services a base salary
at a rate of no less than $330,000 per year, as modified from time to time at the discretion of the Board (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll
practices (subject to required withholding). 
 (b) Annual Bonus. Commencing with the Effective Date, Executive will be eligible for a
target annual bonus of up to forty-five percent (45%) of the Base Salary in each calendar year during the Employment Term as such bonus amount will be determined by the Board based on Executive’s achievement of specified performance goals as
determined by the Board. Any bonus pursuant to this Section 3(b) shall be paid to Executive between February 1 and March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such bonus applies.  

(c) Equity Awards. 
 (i)
Executive has been granted options to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock (including any future stock or equity grants or awards, “Stock Options”) under the Alkami Technology, Inc. 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan
(including any subsequent or successor plans, the “LTIP”) with an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the date of the option grant as determined by the Board. 

(ii) The Stock Options will vest in accordance with the terms of the respective stock option agreements evidencing such Stock Options (each,
the “Applicable Option Agreement”). Each Applicable Option Agreement and each agreement evidencing any other equity award granted to Executive by the Company shall provide for the accelerated vesting in full of the Stock Options or
other equity awards if either (x) the Stock Options or other equity awards are not assumed or continued or substituted (as such terms are used in the LTIP) for similar awards of at least equal value, in connection with a Change of Control (as
defined below) or (y) the Stock Options or other equity awards are assumed, continued or substituted for similar awards of at least equal value in connection with a Change of Control, Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause (as
defined below) by the Company or Executive resigns from Executive’s employment for Good Reason (as defined below), if such termination or resignation occurs either three (3) months prior to, or within two years following, the date of such
Change of Control (such twenty-seven month period being the “Protection Period”) and Executive delivers a release of claims in accordance with Section 9(b) below that becomes effective and irrevocable within 60 days following
such termination or resignation. For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph supersede and override any conflicting terms set forth in the LTIP, the Applicable Option Agreement or any other agreement evidencing an equity award. 

  
 -2- 













 (iii) When determining the termination date of a Stock Option, and notwithstanding that the
terms of the Applicable Option Agreement provide for a termination date that is three (3) months following the date of Executive’s termination of Continuous Service (each as defined in the Applicable Option Agreement) for any reason other
than the termination of Executive’s Continuous Service by the Company for Cause, such termination date shall be extended until the date that is twelve (12) months following the earlier of (A) Executive’s termination of Continuous
Service for any reason other than by the Company for Cause or (B) the original expiration date of the Stock Option. For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph supersede and override any conflicting terms set forth in the LTIP or
the Applicable Option Agreement. 
 (iv) Each Stock Option shall also be exercisable by a “net exercise” under which the Company
will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Stock Option by the largest whole number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Applicable Option Agreement) that does not exceed the sum of
the aggregate exercise price payable for such shares and the withholding taxes due in connection with such exercise (calculated based on maximum statutory tax rates); provided, however, that the Company shall accept a cash or other payment from the
Executive to the extent of any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied by such reduction in the number of whole shares to be issued; provided, further, that shares of Common Stock will no longer be outstanding under the Stock
Option and will not be exercisable thereafter to the extent that (i) shares are used to pay the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise,” (ii) shares are delivered to the Executive as a result of such exercise, and
(iii) shares are withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations. 
 4. Employee Benefits. During the Employment Term, Executive
will be entitled to participate in the employee benefit plans currently and hereafter maintained by the Company of general applicability to other senior executives of the Company and will be entitled to receive such other benefits as are approved by
the Board. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the benefit plans and programs it offers to its employees at any time. Notwithstanding and without limiting the foregoing, during the Employment Term, Executive shall receive an expense
allowance of $200 per calendar month for Executive’s cell phone/mobile data plan. 
 5. Vacation. Executive will be placed on the
Company’s Peak Performance Vacation Plan with the timing and duration of specific vacations mutually and reasonably agreed to by Executive and the CEO. 

6. Business Expenses. During the Employment Term, the Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable travel, entertainment or other
expenses incurred by Executive in the furtherance of or in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder, in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy as in effect from time to time.

 7. Termination on Death or Disability. 

(a) Executive’s employment will terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or, upon fourteen (14) days prior written notice

at the time notice is given, has been unable to substantially perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement for not less than ninety (90) work days within a twelve (12) consecutive month period as a result of Executive’s
incapacity due to a physical or mental condition and, if reasonable accommodation is required by law, after any reasonable accommodation. Upon any termination for death or Disability, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) Executive’s Base
Salary through the effective date of termination; (ii) the right to continue health care benefits under COBRA, at Executive’s cost, to the extent required and available by law; (iii) reimbursement of expenses for which Executive is

 8. Involuntary Termination for Cause; Resignation without Good Reason. 

(a) Effectiveness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment at any
time for Cause, and Executive may at any time voluntarily resign without Good Reason. Termination for Cause shall be effective on the date the Company gives notice to Executive of such termination in accordance with this Agreement unless otherwise
agreed by the parties. Resignation by Executive without Good Reason shall be effective on the date Executive gives notice to the Company of such resignation in accordance with this Agreement unless otherwise agreed by the parties. 

(b) Effect of Termination. In the case of the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment for Cause or Executive’s

pursuant to Section 6 above, but for which she has not yet been reimbursed; (iii) the right to continue health care benefits under COBRA, at Executive’s cost, to the extent required and available by law; and (iv) no other

conditions and limitations), Executive shall be entitled to receive: (A) Base Salary through the date of termination; (B) continuing severance pay at a rate equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of
Base Salary (provided that in connection with a Change of Control where Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause by the Company or Executive’s resignation from Executive’s employment for Good Reason during the Protection

(C) reimbursement of all expenses for which Executive is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to Section 6 above, but for which she has not yet been reimbursed; (D) the right to continue health care benefits under COBRA at Company’s
cost for the first nine (9) months commencing from the date of termination and at Executive’s cost thereafter to the extent required and available by law (provided that in connection with a Change of Control where Executive’s

for the first twelve (12) months commencing from the date of termination and at Executive’s cost thereafter); (E) accelerated vesting of any then outstanding Stock Options or other equity awards (to the extent not fully-vested) as and to

Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5), (2) the Company is otherwise unable to continue to cover
Executive or Executive’s dependents under its group health plans, or (3) the Company cannot provide the COBRA benefit without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act),

Good Reason, providing the CEO with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for Good Reason within sixty (60) days of the initial existence of the grounds for Good Reason and a reasonable opportunity for the Company to
cure the conditions giving rise to such Good Reason, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days following the date of notice from Executive. If the Company cures the conditions giving rise to such Good Reason within thirty (30) days of
the date of such notice, Executive will not be entitled to severance payments and/or benefits contemplated by Section 9(a) above if Executive thereafter resigns from the Company based on such grounds. Unless otherwise required by law, no
severance payments and/or benefits under Section 9(a) will be paid and/or provided until after the expiration of any relevant revocation period (according to applicable law). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9(b) shall not limit

employment related disputes and Executive’s receipt of the compensation and other benefits paid to Executive by the Company, at present and in the future, Executive agrees that any and all controversies, claims, or disputes (with the sole
exception of those disputes that may arise from the EPIA, which shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth therein) with Company, including any breach of this Agreement, shall be subject to binding arbitration
under the arbitration rules set forth by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for the resolution of employment disputes and pursuant to Texas law, which shall be held in Dallas County, Texas. Disputes which Executive agrees

 -8- 













 
any right to a trial by jury, include, to the extent permissible by law, any statutory claims under state or federal law, including, but not limited to, claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Texas Commission on Human Rights Act, claims of harassment, discrimination or wrongful

(b) Procedure. Any arbitration will be administered by AAA and a neutral arbitrator will be selected in a manner consistent with its
National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes (the “Rules”). The arbitration proceedings will allow for discovery according to the Rules. The arbitrator shall have the power to decide any motions brought by any party to
the arbitration, including motions for summary judgment and/or adjudication and motions to dismiss and demurrers, prior to any arbitration hearing. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision including findings of fact and conclusions of law on
the merits of its award. The arbitrator shall have the power to award any remedies, including attorneys’ fees and costs, available under applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall pay the administrative fees associated
with the arbitration, except for the first $200.00 in administrative fees for any arbitration that is initiated by Executive, and Company and Executive shall separately pay independent counsel fees and expenses. The arbitrator shall administer and
conduct any arbitration in a manner consistent with the Rules. 
 (c) Remedy. Arbitration shall be the sole, exclusive and final
remedy for any dispute (with the sole exception of those disputes that may arise from the EPIA, which shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth therein) between Executive and the Company. Accordingly, except as
otherwise provided herein, neither Executive nor the Company will be permitted to pursue court action regarding claims that are subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have the authority to disregard or refuse to enforce any
lawful Company policy, and the arbitrator shall not order or require the Company to adopt a policy not otherwise required by law, which the Company has not adopted. 

(d) Availability of Equitable Relief. Any party may also petition the court for injunctive or other equitable relief where either party
alleges or claims a violation of this Agreement or the EPIA. In the event that either party seeks such relief, no bond shall be required and the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees. Any such relief
will be filed in any state or federal court serving Dallas County, Texas. 
 (e) EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES AND UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS ARBITRATION
CLAUSE CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF EXECUTIVE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DISCRIMINATION CLAIMS. 

18. Integration. This Agreement, together with the EPIA, represents the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the
subject matter herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements whether written or oral regarding the same, including the Prior Agreement. No waiver, alteration or modification of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be binding
unless in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto.

 19. Tax Withholding. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to
withholding of applicable taxes. 
 20. Waiver. No party shall be deemed to have waived any right, power or privilege under this
Agreement or any provisions hereof unless such waiver shall have been duly executed in writing and acknowledged by the party to be charged with such waiver. The failure of any party at any time to insist on performance of any of the provisions of
this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provisions, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to be a waiver of any other subsequent
breach. 
 21. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard for conflicts of law
provisions. 
 22. Acknowledgment. Executive acknowledges that Executive has had the opportunity to discuss this matter with and

Section 409A. 
 (a) Separation from Service. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
with respect to any amounts payable to Executive under this Agreement in connection with a termination of Executive’s employment that would be considered “non-qualified deferred compensation”
under Section 409A of the Code, in no event shall a termination of employment be considered to have occurred under this Agreement unless such termination constitutes Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company as such
term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), and any successor provision thereto (“Separation from Service”). 

(b) Section 409A Compliance; Payment Delays. 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the severance payments
payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in reliance upon Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (relating to separation pay plans) or Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (relating to short-term deferrals). However, to the extent any such payments are treated as “non-qualified deferred compensation” subject
to Section 409A of the Code, and if Executive is deemed at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent delayed
commencement of 

  
 -10- 













 
any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited payment under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of
Executive’s Separation from Service benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s
Separation from Service or (B) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section 25(b)(i) shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive (or Executive’s
estate). 
 (ii) The determination of whether Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of
the Code as of the time of Executive’s Separation from Service shall be made by the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance thereunder (including, without limitation, Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) and any successor provision thereto). 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any amounts payable to Executive under this Agreement that would be considered “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code
and are payable within sixty days following Executive’s termination of employment and conditioned on Executive’s delivery of the general release described in Section 9(b) (the “Release”), payment of such amounts will
be measured from Executive’s date of termination, but shall commence on the 60th day following Executive’s date of termination (the “Payment Commencement Date”),
provided that on or before the Payment Commencement Date, Executive shall have executed the Release (which form shall be delivered to Executive by the Company within five days following the Termination Date) and the revocation period applicable to
the Release shall have expired; and provided further, that the first payment will include an amount equal to all payments that would have been made between the Termination Date and the Payment Commencement Date if such payments had commenced on the
Company’s next regularly scheduled payroll date following the Termination Date. 
 (c) Section 409A; Separate
Payments. This Agreement is intended to be written, administered, interpreted and construed in a manner such that no payment or benefits provided under this Agreement become subject to (a) the gross income inclusion set forth within
Section 409A(a)(1)(A) of the Code or (b) the interest and additional tax set forth within Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code (collectively, “Section 409A Penalties”), including, where appropriate,
the construction of defined terms to have meanings that would not cause the imposition of Section 409A Penalties. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement violates Section 409A of the Code and/or Treasury Regulations issued under
Section 409A of the Code, such that amounts would be taxable to Executive prior to payment, the Company and Executive agree to negotiate in good faith to revise or strike such provision (and take any other action reasonably necessary) to
preserve the intent hereof to the extent permissible under Section 409A of the Code, Treasury Regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, the Company does not guarantee any particular tax result to Executive relating to amounts payable under this Agreement. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code (including, without limitation, for purposes of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), each payment that Executive may be eligible to receive under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate and distinct payment and shall not collectively
be treated as a single payment.

 (d) In-kind Benefits and Reimbursements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Company policy with respect to such payments, in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided under this Agreement during any tax year of
Executive shall not affect in-kind benefits or reimbursements to be provided in any other tax year of Executive and are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by Executive and, if timely submitted, reimbursement payments shall be made to Executive as soon as administratively practicable following such submission in accordance
with the Company’s policies regarding reimbursements, but in no event later than the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. This Section 25(d) shall only
apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result in taxable compensation income to Executive.
