 Exhibit 10.12(a) 

AIRBNB, INC. 
 2018
EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 As Adopted on March 15, 2018 

1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons
whose present and potential contributions are important to the success of the Company, its Parent and Subsidiaries by offering eligible persons an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the grant of Awards
covering Shares. Capitalized terms not defined in the text are defined in Section 14 hereof. Although this Plan is intended to be a written compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701, grants may be made pursuant to this Plan
that do not qualify for exemption under Rule 701 or Section 25102(o). Any requirement of this Plan that is required in law only because of Section 25102(o) need not apply if the Committee so provides. 

2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. 

2.1 Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 11 hereof, the total number of Shares reserved and
available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan will be Fifty Million (50,000,000) Shares plus (a) any authorized shares not issued or subject to outstanding grants under the Company’s 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Prior Plan”) on the Effective Date (as defined in Section 13.1 hereof); (b) shares that are subject to issuance pursuant to an option or restricted stock unit under the Prior Plan but cease to be subject to such award
for any reason other than exercise of an option or settlement of a restricted stock unit after the Effective Date, including because such option or restricted stock unit expires or is cancelled, forfeited, or terminated; (c) shares that were
previously issued under the Prior Plan which are reacquired by the Company after the Effective Date pursuant to a forfeiture provision, right of first refusal, or repurchase by the Company; (d) shares that are subject to issuance pursuant to an
award under the Prior Plan to the extent such award is settled in cash after the Effective Date; and (e) shares that are subject to issuance pursuant to an award under the Prior Plan to the extent such shares are withheld by the Company in
payment of the purchase price of restricted stock, the exercise price of an option or withholding obligations after the Effective Date. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 11 hereof, (A) in the event that Shares previously issued under the Plan
are reacquired by the Company pursuant to a forfeiture provision, right of first refusal, or repurchase by the Company, such Shares shall be added to the number of Shares then available for issuance under the Plan; (B) in the event that Shares
that otherwise would have been issuable under the Plan are withheld by the Company in payment of the Purchase Price, Exercise Price or withholding obligations, such Shares shall remain available for issuance under the Plan; and (C) in the event
that an outstanding Option, Restricted Stock Unit or SAR for any reason expires or is cancelled, forfeited or terminated, the Shares allocable to the unexercised or unsettled portion of such Option, Restricted Stock Unit or SAR, as applicable, shall
remain available for issuance under the Plan. To the extent an Award is settled in cash, the cash settlement shall not reduce the number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the Plan. At all times the Company will reserve and keep
available a sufficient number of Shares as will be required to satisfy the requirements of all Awards granted and outstanding under this Plan. In no event shall the total number of Shares issued (counting each reissuance of a Share that was
previously issued and then reacquired by the Company pursuant to a forfeiture provision, right of first refusal, or repurchase by the Company as a separate issuance) under the Plan upon exercise of ISOs (as defined in Section 4 hereof) exceed
One Hundred Million (100,000,000) Shares (adjusted in proportion to any adjustments under Section 2.2 hereof) over the term of the Plan (the “ISO Limit”).

 2.2 Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of outstanding
shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or other change in the capital structure of the Company affecting
Shares without consideration, then in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, (b) the
Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options and SARs, and (c) the Purchase Prices of and/or number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards will (to the extent appropriate) be proportionately adjusted, subject to
any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities or other laws; provided, however, that fractions of a Share will not be issued but will either be paid in cash
at the Fair Market Value of such fraction of a Share or will be rounded down to the nearest whole Share, as determined by the Committee. 

3. PLAN FOR BENEFIT OF SERVICE PROVIDERS. 

3.1 Eligibility. The Committee will have the authority to select persons to receive Awards. ISOs may be granted
only to employees (including officers and directors who are also employees) of the Company or of a Subsidiary or Parent of the Company. NQSOs (as defined in Section 4 hereof) and all other types of Awards may be granted to employees, officers,
directors and consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent or Affiliate of the Company; provided such consultants render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising
transaction when Rule 701 is to apply to the Award granted for such services. A person may be granted more than one Award under this Plan. 

3.2 No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer or be deemed to confer
on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent or Affiliate of the Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent or
Affiliate of the Company to terminate Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 
 4.
OPTIONS. The Committee may grant Options to eligible persons described in Section 3 hereof and will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code
(“ISOs”) or Nonqualified Stock Options (“NQSOs”), the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option, the period during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms
and conditions of the Option, subject to the following. 
 4.1 Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under this
Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement which will expressly identify the Option as an ISO or an NQSO (“Stock Option Agreement”), and will be in such form and contain such provisions (which need not be the same for each
Participant) as the Committee may from time to time approve, and which will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 

4.2 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the Committee makes the determination to
grant such Option, unless a later date is otherwise specified by the Committee. The Stock Option Agreement and a copy of this Plan will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after the granting of the Option.

	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 4.3 Exercise Period. Options may be awarded as immediately exercisable
but subject to repurchase pursuant to Section 10 hereof or may be exercisable within the times or upon the events set forth in the Stock Option Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that (a) no
Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; and (b) no ISO granted to a person who directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary or Parent of the Company (“Ten Percent Stockholder”) will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted; but in no event
shall an Option granted to an employee who is a non-exempt employee for purposes of overtime pay under the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 be exercisable earlier than six (6) months after its date
of grant. The Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines. In addition, if an Option is
determined to otherwise be subject to Section 409A of the Code, such Option shall be exercisable for the Shares subject to such Option no later than the end of the applicable short-term deferral period determined under Section 409A of the
Code by the Committee, except as otherwise determined by the Committee. 
 4.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an
Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant unless expressly determined in writing by the Committee; provided that the Exercise
Price of an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Payment for the Shares purchased must be made in accordance with Section 8
hereof. 
 4.5 Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised only by delivery to the Company of a stock option exercise
agreement (accepted via written, electronic or other means) (the “Exercise Agreement”) in a form approved by the Committee (which need not be the same for each Participant). The Exercise Agreement will state (a) the
number of Shares being purchased, (b) the restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if any, and (c) such representations and agreements regarding Participant’s investment intent and access to
information and other matters, if any, as may be required or desirable by the Company to comply with applicable securities or other laws. Each Participant’s Exercise Agreement may be modified by (i) agreement of Participant and the Company
or (ii) substitution by the Company, upon becoming a public company, in order to add the payment terms set forth in Section 8.1 that apply to a public company and such other terms as shall be necessary or advisable in order to exercise a
public company option. Upon exercise of an Option, Participant shall execute and deliver to the Company the Exercise Agreement then in effect, together with payment in full of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased and
satisfaction of any applicable Tax-Related Obligations (as defined in Section 8.3 hereof). No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the
Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 2.2 of the Plan. Exercising an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares
as to which the Option is exercised. 
 4.6 Termination. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Sections 11
and 13 hereof and notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option will always be subject to the following terms and conditions. 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	3	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 4.6.1 Other than Death or Disability or for Cause. If the Participant is Terminated
for any reason other than death, Disability or for Cause, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options only to the extent that such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date, except as otherwise
determined by the Committee or required by applicable law. Such Options must be exercised by the Participant, if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee,
within three (3) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than thirty (30) days, or within such longer time period after the Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee or required by
applicable law with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the date Participant ceases to be an employee deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 

4.6.2 Death or Disability. If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant’s death or Disability (or the Participant dies
within three (3) months after a Termination other than for Cause), then Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares on the Termination Date, except as otherwise determined
by the Committee or required by applicable law. Such Options must be exercised by Participant (or Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee), if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination
Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than six (6) months, or within such longer time period, after the Termination Date as
may be determined by the Committee or required by applicable law, with any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the date Participant ceases to be an employee when the Termination is for any reason other than the Participant’s
death or disability, within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, or (b) twelve (12) months after the date Participant ceases to be an employee when the Termination is for Participant’s disability, within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 
 4.6.3
For Cause. If the Participant is Terminated for Cause, the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options, but not to an extent greater than such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date and
Participant’s Options shall expire on such Participant’s Termination Date, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the Committee. 

4.7 Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any
exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 

4.8 Limitations on ISOs. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to
which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent of the Company) will not exceed One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000). If the Fair Market Value of Shares on the date of grant with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), then the Options for
the first One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) worth of Shares to become exercisable in such calendar year will be ISOs and the Options for the amount in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) that become exercisable in that calendar
year will be NQSOs. In the event 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	4	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 
that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the Effective Date to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs,
then such different limit will be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 

4.9 Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the
grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted, unless for the
purpose of complying with applicable laws and regulations. Any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code. Subject to Section 4.10 hereof, the
Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of Participants by a written notice to them; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below the minimum Exercise
Price that would be permitted under Section 4.4 hereof for Options granted on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price. 

4.10 No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be
interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the written consent of the Participant, to disqualify any
Participant’s ISO under Section 422 of the Code. 
 5. RESTRICTED STOCK. A Restricted Stock Award is
an offer by the Company to sell to an eligible person Shares that are subject to certain specified restrictions. The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the person may purchase, the Purchase Price, the
restrictions to which the Shares will be subject, and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the following terms and conditions. 

5.1 Form of Restricted Stock Award. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award made pursuant to this Plan will be
evidenced by an Award Agreement (“Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement”) that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be
subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. The Restricted Stock Award will be accepted by the Participant’s execution and delivery of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement (accepted via written, electronic or other means) and full
payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days from the date the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement is delivered to the person. If such person does not execute and deliver the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement along with full
payment for the Shares to the Company within such thirty (30) days, then the offer will terminate, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 

5.2 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Shares sold pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the
Committee on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 

5.3 Dividends and Other Distributions. Participants holding Restricted Stock Awards will be entitled to receive all
dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, unless the Committee provides otherwise at the time the Award is granted. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same
restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Awards with respect to which they were paid.

	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 5.4 Restrictions. Restricted Stock Awards may be subject to the
restrictions set forth in Sections 9 and 10 hereof or, with respect to a Restricted Stock Award to which Section 25102(o) is to apply, such other restrictions not inconsistent with Section 25102(o). 

6. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. 

6.1 Awards of Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) is an Award covering a
number of Shares that may be settled in cash, by issuance of those Shares at a date in the future, or by a combination of cash and Shares. No Purchase Price shall apply to an RSU settled in Shares. All grants of RSUs will be evidenced by an Award
Agreement (the “RSU Agreement”) that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of
this Plan. No RSU will have a term longer than ten (10) years from the date the RSU is granted. 
 6.2 Form and Timing of
Settlement. To the extent permissible under applicable law, the Committee may permit a Participant to defer payment (including settlement) under an RSU to a date or dates after the RSU has vested, provided that the terms of the
RSU and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, to the extent the Participant is subject to Section 409A of the Code. Payment may be made in the form of cash
or whole Shares or a combination thereof, all as the Committee determines. 
 6.3 Dividend Equivalent Payments.
The Board may permit Participants holding RSUs to receive dividend equivalent payments on outstanding RSUs if and when dividends are paid to stockholders on Shares. In the discretion of the Board, such dividend equivalent payments may be
paid in cash or Shares and they may either be paid at the same time as dividend payments are made to stockholders or delayed until Shares are issued pursuant to the RSU grants and may be subject to the same vesting or performance requirements as the
RSUs. If the Board permits dividend equivalent payments to be made on RSUs, the terms and conditions for such dividend equivalent payments will be set forth in the RSU Agreement. 

7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. 

7.1 Awards of SARs. Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) may be settled in cash or Shares (which
may consist of Restricted Stock or RSUs) or a combination thereof, having a value equal to the value determined by multiplying (i) the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price and (ii) the
number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being exercised. All grants of SARs made pursuant to this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement (the “SAR Agreement”) that will be in such form (which need not be the
same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 

7.2 Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of events
determined by the Committee and set forth in the SAR Agreement. The SAR Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is
granted. 
 7.3 Exercise Price. The Committee will determine the Exercise Price of the SAR when the SAR is granted,
which may not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 7.4 Termination. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to
Sections 11 and 13 hereof and notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the SAR Agreement, exercise of SARs will always be subject to the following terms and conditions. 

7.4.1 Other than Death or Disability or for Cause. If the Participant is Terminated for any reason other than death, Disability or for
Cause, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s SARs only to the extent that such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date or as otherwise determined by the Committee or required by applicable law. SARs
must be exercised by the Participant, if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within three (3) months after the Termination Date (or within such
shorter time period, not less than thirty (30) days, or within such longer time period after the Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee or required by applicable law), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the
SARs. 
 7.4.2 Death or Disability. If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant’s death or Disability (or the
Participant dies within three (3) months after a Termination other than for Cause), then Participant’s SARs may be exercised only to the extent that such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares on the Termination Date or as otherwise
determined by the Committee or as required by applicable law. Such SARs must be exercised by Participant (or Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee), if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the
Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than six (6) months, or within such longer time period after the
Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee or required by applicable law), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the SARs. 

7.4.3 For Cause. If the Participant is Terminated for Cause, the Participant may exercise such Participant’s SARs, but not to an
extent greater than such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date and Participant’s SARs shall expire on such Participant’s Termination Date, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the
Committee. 
 8. PAYMENT FOR PURCHASES AND EXERCISES. 

8.1 Payment in General. Payment for Shares acquired pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash or cash equivalents or,
where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and subject to compliance with applicable law: 
 (a) by cancellation of
indebtedness of the Company owed to the Participant; 
 (b) by surrender of shares of the Company that are clear of all liens, claims,
encumbrances or security interests and: (i) for which the Company has received “full payment of the purchase price” within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory
note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares) or (ii) that were obtained by Participant in the public market; 

(c) by tender of a full recourse promissory note having such terms as may be approved by the Committee and bearing interest at a rate
sufficient to avoid (i) imputation of income under Sections 483 and 1274 of the Code and (ii) unfavorable accounting treatment as determined by the Committee; provided, however, that Participants who are
not employees or directors of the 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	7	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 
Company will not be entitled to purchase Shares with a promissory note unless the note is adequately secured by collateral other than the Shares; provided, further,
that the portion of the Exercise Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be, equal to the par value (if any) of the Shares must be paid in cash or other legal consideration permitted by the laws under which the Company is then incorporated or
organized; 
 (d) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Participant from the Company for services rendered; 

(e) by participating in a formal cashless exercise program implemented by the Committee in connection with the Plan; 

(f) provided that a public market for the Company’s common stock exists, by exercising through a “same day sale” commitment
from the Participant and a broker-dealer whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Award and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased sufficient to pay the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price, and whereby the broker-dealer
irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price directly to the Company; or 
 (g) by
any combination of the foregoing or any other method of payment approved by the Committee. 
 8.2 Loan Guarantees. The
Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to assist the Participant in paying for Shares purchased under the Plan by authorizing a guarantee by the Company of a third-party loan to the Participant. 

8.3 Withholding Taxes. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding events in connection with the Awards under this
Plan, the Company may require the Participant to pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account and other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in this Plan and legally applicable to the Participant (collectively, “Tax-Related
Obligations”). The Committee may, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, require or permit a Participant to satisfy withholding obligations for such
Tax-Related Obligations, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (a) paying cash, (b) having the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a value equal to the Tax-Related Obligations to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a value equal to the Tax-Related Obligations to be withheld, or
(d) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares issued pursuant to an Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company, provided that, in all instances, the satisfaction of the Tax-Related Obligations will not result in any adverse accounting consequence to the Company, as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion. The Company may withhold or account for these Tax-Related Obligations by considering applicable statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum rates for the applicable tax jurisdiction to the extent consistent with
applicable laws. 
 9. RESTRICTIONS ON AWARDS. 

9.1 Transferability. Except as permitted by the Committee, Awards granted under this Plan, and any interest
therein, will not be transferable or assignable by Participant, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and, with respect to NQSOs for Participants in the U.S., by 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	8	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 
instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the NQSOs are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor), or by gift to “family member” as that
term is defined in Rule 701, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process. For the avoidance of doubt, the prohibition against assignment and transfer applies to Awards and any Shares underlying the Awards prior to the
issuance of the Shares, and pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be understood to include, without limitation, a prohibition against any pledge, hypothecation, or other transfer, including any short position, any “put equivalent
position” or any “call equivalent position” (in each case, as defined in Rule 16a-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act). Unless an Award is transferred pursuant to the terms of this Section,
during the lifetime of the Participant an Award will be exercisable only by the Participant or Participant’s legal representative and any elections with respect to an Award may be made only by the Participant or Participant’s legal
representative. The terms of an Award shall be binding upon the executor, administrator, successors and assigns of the Participant who is a party thereto. 

9.2 Securities Law and Other Regulatory Compliance. Although this Plan is intended to be a written compensatory benefit
plan within the meaning of Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, Awards may be made pursuant to this Plan that do not qualify for exemption under Rule 701 or Section 25102(o). Any requirement of this Plan which is required in law
only because of Section 25102(o) need not apply with respect to a particular Award to which Section 25102(o) will not apply. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state and local securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Company’s equity
securities may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise, settlement or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to
issue Shares or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable, and/or (b) compliance with any exemption, completion of
any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state or local law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The
Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the exemption, registration, qualification or listing requirements of any securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the
Company will have no liability for any inability or failure so do. 
 9.3 Exchange and Buyout of Awards. The Committee
may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. Without prior stockholder approval
the Committee may reprice Options or SARs (and where such repricing is a reduction in the Exercise Price of outstanding Options or SARs, the consent of the affected Participants is not required provided written notice is provided to them). The
Committee may at any time buy from a Participant an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including Restricted Stock) or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee and the Participant may agree. 

10. RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. 

10.1 Privileges of Stock Ownership. No Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any
Shares until such Shares are issued to the Participant. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	9	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 
with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are
Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the
Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock. The Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Unvested Shares that are repurchased as described in this
Section 10. 
 10.2 Rights of First Refusal and Repurchase. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may
reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement (a) a right of first refusal to purchase all Shares that a Participant (or a subsequent transferee) may propose to transfer to a third party, provided that such right
of first refusal terminates upon (i) subject to any applicable market standoff restrictions, the effective date of the first sale of common stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and
declared effective by the SEC under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of common stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan); (ii) any transfer or conversion
of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect Parent thereof is registered
under the Exchange Act; or (iii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory conversion of the Company into another form of legal entity if the common equity (or comparable equity security) of entity resulting from
such conversion is registered under the Exchange Act; and (b) a right to repurchase Unvested Shares held by a Participant for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness owed to the Company by the Participant following such
Participant’s Termination at any time. 
 10.3 Agreement to Vote Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the
Company may require that, as a condition to the receipt of the Shares upon issuance of an Award, exercise of an Option or SAR or settlement of an RSU, the Participant and any transferee of the Shares agree to vote such Shares pursuant to the terms
of a Voting Agreement by and between the Company and certain of its stockholders. 
 10.4 Escrow; Pledge of Shares. To
enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately
endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated. The Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificate.
Any Participant who is permitted to execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to
secure the payment of Participant’s obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of
such obligation and, in any event, the Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares,
Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the
promissory note is paid.

 10.5 Securities Law Restrictions. All certificates for Shares or other
securities delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable U.S. and
non-U.S. federal, state or local securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Company’s equity securities
may be listed or quoted. 
 10.6 Transfer Restrictions. All Shares or other securities delivered under this Plan will
be subject to any restrictions on transfers of securities as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, including Section 5.4, as may be amended from time to time. 

11. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. 

11.1 Acquisitions or Other Combinations. In the event that the Company is subject to an Acquisition or Other
Combination, outstanding Awards acquired under the Plan shall be subject to the agreement evidencing the Acquisition or Other Combination, which need not treat all outstanding Awards in an identical manner. Such agreement, without the
Participant’s consent, shall provide for one or more of the following with respect to all outstanding Awards as of the effective date of such Acquisition or Other Combination: 

(a) The continuation of such outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the successor entity). 

(b) The assumption of outstanding Awards by the successor or acquiring entity (if any) in such Acquisition or Other Combination (or by any of
its Parents, if any), which assumption will be binding on all Participants; provided that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or upon the settlement of any
award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) and Section 409A of the Code. For the purposes of this Section 11, an Award will be considered assumed if, following the
Acquisition or Other Combination, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Acquisition or Other Combination, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or
property) received in the Acquisition or Other Combination by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Acquisition or Other Combination is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Committee may, with the consent of the
successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or upon the settlement of an RSU, for each Share subject to such Award, to be solely common stock of the successor
corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Class B Common Stock in the Acquisition or Other Combination. 

(c) The substitution by the successor or acquiring entity in such Acquisition or Other Combination (or by any of its Parents, if any) of
equivalent awards with substantially the same terms for such outstanding Awards (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or any award that is subject
to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) and Section 409A of the Code). 

  

					
	Airbnb, Inc.	  	11	  	
	2018 Equity Incentive Plan	  		  	














 (d) The settlement of the Fair Market Value of such outstanding Award (whether or not then
vested or exercisable) in cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the successor entity (or its Parent, if any), followed by the cancellation of such Awards; provided however, that such Award may be cancelled without consideration if such Award has
no value, as determined by the Committee, in its discretion. Subject to Section 409A of the Code, such payment may be made in installments and may be deferred until the date or dates when the Award would have become exercisable or vested. Such
payment may be subject to vesting based on the Participant’s continued service, provided that without the Participant’s consent, the vesting schedule shall not be less favorable to the Participant than the schedule under which the Award
would have become vested or exercisable. For purposes of this Section 11.1(d), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined without regard to any vesting conditions that may apply to such security. 

In the event an outstanding Award is not continued, assumed, substituted or settled pursuant to Section 11.1(a), (b), (c) and/or
(d) above, as applicable, in an Acquisition, then the vesting of such Award shall accelerate in full effective as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Acquisition and (i) to the extent each outstanding Option and SAR is not
exercised prior to the consummation of the Acquisition, it shall terminate and cease to be outstanding upon the consummation of the Acquisition and (ii) each outstanding RSU shall be settled in full effective immediately prior to the
consummation of the Acquisition and cease to be outstanding upon the consummation of the Acquisition. For the avoidance of doubt, the immediately foregoing sentence shall not apply in the event of an Other Combination. 

Immediately following an Acquisition or Other Combination, outstanding Awards shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the
extent such Awards have been continued, assumed or substituted, as described in Sections 11.1(a), (b) and/or (c). 
 11.2
Substitution or Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another entity, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other entity or
otherwise, by either (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other entity’s award or (b) assuming and/or converting such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be
applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other entity had applied the
rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another entity, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon
exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or any award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new
Option or SAR in substitution for and rather than assuming an existing option or stock appreciation right, such new Option or SAR may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price and number of underlying Shares and such other changes approved
by the Committee, subject to the consent of the Participant. 
 12. ADMINISTRATION. 

12.1 Committee Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee. Subject to the general purposes, terms and
conditions of this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and carry out this Plan. Without limitation, the Committee will have the authority to:

(h) grant waivers of any conditions of this Plan or any Award;

 12.2 Standalone, Tandem and Substitute Awards. Awards granted under the
Plan may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution for, any other Award granted under the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted
either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards. 
 12.3 Committee Composition and
Discretion. The Board may delegate full administrative authority over the Plan and Awards to a Committee consisting of at least one member of the Board (or such greater number as may then be required by applicable law). Unless in
contravention of any express terms of this Plan or Award, any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award will be made in its sole discretion either (a) at the time of grant of the Award, or (b) subject to
Section 4.9 hereof, at any later time. Any such determination will be final and binding on the Company and on all persons having an interest in any Award under this Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may delegate to
one or more directors or officers of the Company the authority to grant an Award under this Plan. 
 12.4 Nonexclusivity of the
Plan. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to
adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options and other equity awards otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable
or applicable only in specific cases. 
 12.5 Governing Law. This Plan and all agreements hereunder shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to that body of laws pertaining to conflict of laws. 

13. EFFECTIVENESS, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. 

13.1 Adoption and Stockholder Approval. This Plan will become effective on the date that it is adopted by the
Board (the “Effective Date”). This Plan will be approved by the stockholders of the Company (excluding Shares issued pursuant to this Plan), consistent with applicable laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the
Effective Date. Upon the Effective Date, the Committee may grant Awards pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that: (a) no Option or SAR may be exercised prior to initial stockholder approval of this Plan;
(b) no Option or SAR granted pursuant to an increase in the number of Shares approved by the Board shall be exercised prior to the time such increase has been approved by the stockholders of the Company; (c) in the event that initial
stockholder approval is not obtained within the time period provided herein, all Awards for which only the exemption from California’s securities qualification requirements provided by Section 25102(o) can apply shall be canceled, any
Shares issued pursuant to any such Award shall be canceled and any purchase of such Shares issued hereunder shall be rescinded; and (d) Awards (to which only the exemption from California’s securities qualification requirements provided by
Section 25102(o) can apply) granted pursuant to an increase in the number of Shares approved by the Board which increase is not approved by stockholders within the time then required under Section 25102(o) shall be canceled, any Shares
issued pursuant to any such Awards shall be canceled, and any purchase of Shares subject to any such Award shall be rescinded.

Plan will automatically terminate ten (10) years after the Effective Date.

Plan. Subject to Section 4.9 hereof, the Board may at any time (a) terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including without limitation amendment of any form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant to this
Plan and (b) terminate any and all outstanding Options, SARs or RSUs upon a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, followed by the payment of creditors and the distribution of any remaining funds to the Company’s stockholders;
provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any manner that requires such stockholder approval pursuant to Section 25102(o) or pursuant to
the Code or the regulations promulgated under the Code as such provisions apply to ISO plans. The termination of the Plan, or any amendment thereof, shall not affect any Share previously issued or any Award previously granted under the Plan.
