 Gregg Coccari 

600 Harrison Street 
 San Francisco, CA 94107 

Dear Gregg: 
 This letter agreement (the
“Agreement”) is entered into between Udemy, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) and you. This Agreement is effective as of the date signed below (the “Effective
Date”). The purpose of this Agreement is to confirm the current terms and conditions of your employment. 

1.    Position. Your current title is Chief Executive Officer of the Company. This is a full-time position,
based out of our San Francisco office. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full time or part-time) directly related to the business in which Udemy is
now involved or becomes involved during the term of your employment without the prior approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your
obligations to Udemy. By signing this Agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company. 

2.    Compensation and Benefits. 

(a)    Base Salary. Your rate of annual base salary as of the Effective Date will be $500,000 per year, less
applicable withholding, which will be paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures 

(b)    Annual Bonus Opportunity. Your annual target bonus opportunity following the Effective Date will be 50% of
your annual base salary (the “Target Bonus”). The Target Bonus shall be subject to review and may be adjusted based upon the Company’s normal performance review practices. Your actual bonuses shall be based upon
achievement of performance objectives to be determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion. Bonuses will be paid as soon as practicable after the Board determines that such bonuses have been earned, but in no event will a bonus be paid
to you after the later of (i) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) month following the close of the Company’s fiscal year in which such bonus is earned or (ii) March 15 following the calendar year in which such bonus is
earned. 
 (c)    Employee Benefits. As a full-time employee, you will continue to be eligible to participate in
the Company’s standard benefit plans as in effect from time to time, on the same basis as those benefit plans are generally made available to other similarly situated executives of the Company. Such benefit plans are subject to change, and may
be supplemented, 












 
altered, or eliminated, in part or entirely. Any eligibility to participate in such benefits plans, as well as the terms thereof, shall be as set forth in the governing documents for such plans,
or there are no such governing documents, in the Company’s policies. 
 (d)    Equity Awards. You will be
eligible to receive compensatory equity awards such as stock options or restricted stock unit awards from the Company on the terms and conditions determined by the Board in its sole discretion. 

(e)    Expenses. You will be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by you
in the furtherance of or in connection with the performance of your duties hereunder, in accordance with the applicable policy of the Company, as in effect from time to time. In the event that any expense reimbursements are taxable to you, such
reimbursements will be made in the time frame specified by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) unless another time frame that complies with or is exempt from Section 409A is specified in
the Company’s expense reimbursement policy. 
 (f)    Vacation. Udemy offers a flexible time off policy
pursuant to which you can take a reasonable amount of paid time away from the office for vacation, illness, family emergencies, etc., as necessary. 

(g)    Housing Assistance. For the duration of your employment with the Company (or earlier if you relocate
to the San Francisco Bay Area), the Company will either pay directly or reimburse you for temporary housing and the cost of flights to and from your home (the “Housing Assistance”). The Housing Assistance will not exceed
$10,000 per month. In order to be eligible for the Housing Assistance, you must be employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries on the date the Housing Assistance is paid or provided to you. To ameliorate the tax burden to you of receiving the
Housing Assistance, to the extent taxable to you, as part of your Housing Assistance, gross-up payments will be provided as necessary to pay federal and state income and employment taxes incurred by you with
respect to any taxable Housing Assistance paid or provided, including with respect to such gross-up payments themselves, which payments will be calculated and provided as calculated by the Company using
good-faith and reasonable assumptions to calculate such amounts. In the event that any expense reimbursements are taxable to you, such reimbursements will be made in the time frame specified by Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) unless another time frame that complies with or is exempt from Section 409A (as defined in Appendix A) is specified in the Company’s expense reimbursement policy. 

3.    Severance & Change of Control Benefits. In connection with executing this
Agreement, you are also entering into the Change in Control and Severance Agreement between you and the Company (the “Severance Agreement”), which is incorporated herein by reference. 

4.    Confidentiality. The Company employs you based upon your knowledge, background, experience and
skills and abilities and not because of your knowledge of any previous employer’s trade secrets or other company specific information. As a condition of employment at the Company you agree not to disclose or use confidential or proprietary
information or trade secrets of any current or prior employer, and that you will not in any way utilize any such information in performing your duties for the Company. In this regard, you may not bring to the Company any documents or other materials
in tangible form belonging to or acquired from any prior employer.

 5.    Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. As
an employee of the Company, you will continue to have access to certain confidential information of the Company and you may, during the course of your employment, develop certain information or inventions that will be the property of the Company. To
protect the interests of the Company, your acceptance of this Agreement reaffirms that the terms of the Company’s At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration
Agreement that you previously signed (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) continue to be in effect. 

6.    At-Will Employment. You acknowledge and agree that your
employment with the Company will be “at-will” employment and may be terminated at any time with or without cause or notice. You understand and agree that neither your job performance nor
commendations, bonuses, or the like from the Company give rise to or in any way serve as the basis for modification, amendment, or extension, by implication or otherwise, of your employment with the Company. You further acknowledge and agree that
the Company may modify job titles, salaries and benefits from time to time as it deems necessary. However, as described in this Agreement, you may be eligible to receive severance benefits under the Severance Agreement depending on the circumstances
of the termination of your employment with the Company. 
 7.    Tax Matters. 

(a)    Withholding. All payments made under this Agreement shall be subject to reduction to reflect taxes or other
charges required to be withheld by law, and you will be solely responsible for any and all taxes arising in connection with this Agreement and compensation paid or payable to you, including but not limited to any taxes, penalties and interest, if
any, arising under Section 409A. 
 (b)    Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits
provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any final regulations and guidance thereunder and any applicable state law
equivalent, as each may be amended or promulgated from time to time (“Section 409A”) so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under
Section 409A, and any ambiguities will be interpreted to so be exempt or comply. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 (c)    Tax
Advice. You are encouraged to obtain your own tax advice regarding your compensation from the Company. You agree that the Company does not have a duty to design its compensation policies in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities. 

8.    Entire Agreement, Amendment and Enforcement. This Agreement, the Severance Agreement and the
Confidentiality Agreement supersede and replace any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral, implied or otherwise)

between you and the Company, and constitute the complete agreement between you and the Company regarding the subject matter set forth herein. This Agreement may not be amended or modified, except
by an express written agreement signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to
the principles of conflict of laws thereof. 
 9.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    Arbitration. You agree that any and all controversies, claims, or disputes with anyone (including the
Company and any employee, officer, director, shareholder or benefit plan of the Company in their capacity as such or otherwise) arising out of, relating to, or resulting from your service to the Company, will be subject to arbitration in accordance
with the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 (b)    Successors. In addition to any obligations
imposed by law upon any successor to the Company, the Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to
expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. 

(c)    Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

(d)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 
 (e)    Acknowledgment. You
acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to discuss this Agreement with and obtain advice from your private attorney, have had sufficient time to, and have carefully read and fully understand all the provisions of this Agreement, and are
knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement.
