 Exhibit 10.19 

INCENTIVE EQUITY GRANT AGREEMENT 

THIS INCENTIVE EQUITY GRANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of
            , 2020, by and among Instructure Parent, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), Thoma Bravo Fund XIII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(“Fund XIII”), Thoma Bravo Fund XIII-A, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund XIII-A”), and Thoma Bravo Executive Fund XIII,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Executive Fund XIII” and, together with Fund XIII and Fund XIII-A, “TB”), and the employee listed on the signature page hereto
(“Employee”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the LP Agreement. 

Pursuant to the Instructure Parent, LP Incentive Equity Plan (the “Plan”), the Partnership and Employee desire to enter into
this Agreement pursuant to which Employee will acquire from the Partnership, and the Partnership will issue and grant to Employee, the number of Class B Units set forth on the signature page hereto. All Class B Units hereby acquired by
Employee pursuant to this Agreement are referred to herein as “Carried Units.” Certain definitions are set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement. 

The parties hereto agree as follows: 

1.     Issuance of Carried Units. 

(a)     Upon execution of this Agreement, Employee will acquire and the Partnership will issue and grant, the number of
Class B Units set forth on the signature page hereto at no cost per Class B Unit, a certain number of which are specified as “Type I Units” on the signature page hereto and a certain number of which are specified as
“Type II Units” on the signature page hereto. Such Class B Units will be Series 1 Incentive Units and shall have an initial Participation Threshold of $0.00. The Participation Threshold with respect to each Class B Unit is
subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in the LP Agreement. The issuance of the Carried Units to Employee hereunder is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation D or Rule 701 thereunder or
Section 4(a)(2). 
 (b)     If Employee is (or is reasonably expected to become) a United States taxpayer, within
30 days after Employee acquires Carried Units from the Partnership, Employee will make a timely and effective election with the Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s sole responsibility, and not the Partnership’s, to file timely and properly an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code and any corresponding provisions of state tax laws, if applicable. 
 (c)     In connection with the
issuance of the Carried Units contemplated herein, Employee represents and warrants to the Partnership and TB that: 
 (i)
    Employee possesses all requisite capacity, power and authority to enter into and perform Employee’s obligations under this Agreement and the LP Agreement. 












 (ii)     (x) Employee is an “accredited
investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or (y) if Employee is not an “accredited investor,” Employee acknowledges and agrees that (A) the opportunity to acquire
interests in the Partnership is being offered in consideration of the services rendered to the Partnership and its Subsidiaries as additional compensation under a “written compensation contract” as contemplated by Rule 701 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended and (B) Employee would not have the opportunity to acquire an interest in the Partnership if Employee were not an employee of the Partnership or one of its Subsidiaries. 

(iii)     The Carried Units to be acquired by Employee pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for
Employee’s own account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities laws and the Carried Units will not be disposed of in contravention of the Securities Act or
any applicable securities laws. 
 (iv)     Employee is employed by the Partnership or one of its
Subsidiaries, is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Carried Units. 

(v)     Employee is not relying upon any information, representation or warranty by the Partnership, its
Subsidiaries, TB or any of their respective Affiliates or any agent of any of the foregoing in deciding to invest in the Carried Units, and expressly acknowledges that none of the foregoing Persons has made any representations or warranties to
Employee in connection therewith. 
 (vi)     Employee is able to bear the economic risk of
Employee’s investment in the Carried Units for an indefinite period of time and acknowledges that Employee will be required to do so because the Carried Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold
unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. 
 (vii)
    Employee has had ample time and opportunity to review this Agreement, the LP Agreement and the other documents referenced herein, ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of
Carried Units and has had full access to such other information concerning the Partnership as Employee has requested. 

(viii)     This Agreement, the LP Agreement and each of the other agreements contemplated hereby constitute
the legal, valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the LP Agreement and such other agreements by Employee does not and will not
conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which Employee is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which Employee is subject. 

(ix)     The issuance of the Carried Units acquired hereunder, and the income and value of the same, are
not part of normal or expected compensation for the 

  
 2 













 
purpose of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments,
holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or payments or welfare benefits or similar payments. 

(x)     Unless otherwise agreed with the Partnership in writing, the Carried Units and the income and value
of the same, are not offered as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director, manager or in a similar capacity of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries. 

(xi)     Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan and as determined by the Partnership in its
sole and absolute discretion, the Carried Units and any benefits under this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Carried Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or
substituted for, in connection with any corporate or similar transaction affecting the Units. 
 (xii)
    Employee understands that (A) there is no current public market for the Carried Units, none is expected to develop and the Carried Units are subject to substantial restrictions on transferability and (B) as a result
of such matters and other factors, the Carried Units are difficult to value. 
 (xiii)     Employee
understands and agrees that (A) the investment in the Partnership involves a high degree of risk, (B) in the future the Carried Units may significantly increase or decrease in value and (C) no guarantees or representations have been
made or can be made with respect to the future value of the Carried Units or the future profitability or success of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries. 

(xiv)     Employee is a resident of the State and/or Country listed on the signature page hereto under
Employee’s name. 
 (xv)     Employee is able to read and understand English. 

(xvi)     Employee acknowledges and agrees that (A) the Partnership and its Subsidiaries have incurred
and may incur in the future a substantial amount of senior or other indebtedness and (B) there may be additional issuances of Carried Units or other Equity Securities of the Partnership after the date hereof and the equity interests of Employee
may be diluted in connection with any such issuance, subject to the terms of the LP Agreement. 
 (xvii)
    Employee has had the opportunity, and has been advised by the Partnership, to consult with (A) Employee’s tax counsel as to the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the LP Agreement and (B) independent legal counsel regarding Employee’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the LP Agreement and fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein and
therein. 

  
 3 













 (xviii)     Employee is not relying on the Partnership
or any of its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ employees, agents or representatives with respect to the legal, tax, economic, and related considerations of accepting the Carried Units. 

(xix)     Employee is not acquiring the Carried Units as a result of, or subsequent to, any advertisement,
article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, internet publication or similar media or broadcast over television, radio or the internet or presented at any public seminar or meeting. 

(xx)     Employee’s spouse (if any) has read this Agreement, the LP Agreement and the other agreements
referred to herein, understands their contents and has agreed that any interest (including any community property interest) such spouse may have, or may acquire in the future, in the Carried Units is irrevocably bound by this Agreement, the LP
Agreement and the other agreements referred to herein. 
 (d)     As an inducement to the Partnership to issue the
Carried Units to Employee, and as a condition thereto, Employee acknowledges and agrees that neither the issuance of the Carried Units to Employee nor any provision contained herein shall entitle Employee to remain in the employment of the
Partnership and its Subsidiaries or affect the right of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries to terminate Employee’s employment at any time for any reason. 

2.     Vesting of Carried Units. 

(a)     Type I Units are subject to vesting based upon Employee’s Continuous Service and compliance with the terms of
this Agreement. Type II Units are subject to vesting based upon Employee’s Continuous Service, compliance with the terms of this Agreement and certain performance-based vesting criteria as further described in this Section 2. 

(b)     Type I Units will vest as follows: (i) 25% of the Type I Units will become vested on March 24, 2021 and
(ii) the balance of the Type I Units will vest ratably in a series of 36 equal monthly installments upon Employee’s completion of each additional month of Continuous Service over such 36-month period
measured from March 24, 2021; provided that, if the Continuous Service of Employee ceases then no Type I Units that have not become vested will vest thereafter and all such unvested Type I Units will automatically terminate, be forfeited
and be cancelled for no consideration or payment of any kind. 
 (c)     Subject to compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, the Type II Units will become vested in accordance with the schedule set forth in this Section 2(c) effective upon confirmation by the Partnership’s Board of Managers (the “Board”) that EBITDA for such
fiscal year equals or exceeds the Target EBITDA for such fiscal year (as set forth in the schedule below), provided that Employee is then in Continuous Service with the Partnership and its Subsidiaries. Upon confirmation by the Board that EBITDA for
any given fiscal year does not equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA (as set forth in the schedule below) (an “Unvested Year”), then all Type II Units for such Unvested Year that would have otherwise vested had EBITDA equaled
or exceeded the applicable Target EBITDA shall remain unvested (the “Unvested Type II Units”); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that the Board confirms
for the fiscal year immediately subsequent to such Unvested Year 

  
 4 













 
that EBITDA for such subsequent fiscal year equals or exceeds the amount of Target EBITDA for such subsequent fiscal year (and, Employee is and has been in Continuous Service through the end of
such subsequent fiscal year) then all Unvested Type II Units from such immediately preceding Unvested Year outstanding as of such date (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, from any year prior to such immediately preceding Unvested Year) that would
have otherwise vested had EBITDA for such previous Unvested Year equaled or exceeded the applicable Target EBITDA for such Unvested Year shall become immediately vested upon the date of such determination by the Board. If the Board determines that
EBITDA for such subsequent fiscal year did not equal or exceed the Target EBITDA for such fiscal year, then all Unvested Type II Units from the previous Unvested Year (such previous Unvested Year, a “Forfeited Year”) shall not vest
(including in connection with a Change in Control) and all such Unvested Type II Units will automatically terminate and be cancelled for no consideration or payment of any kind. As an example and for the avoidance of doubt, if the Target EBITDA was
not achieved for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021 respectively, but was achieved for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, assuming Employee is and has been continuously employed by the Partnership or
its Subsidiaries through the end of fiscal year 2022, (A) Employee’s Unvested Type II Units associated with the fiscal year ended 2021 would vest, (B) Employee’s Type II Units associated with the fiscal year ended 2022 would vest and
(C) Employee’s Unvested Type II Units associated with the fiscal year ended 2020 would not vest and be forfeited.

	 Fiscal year ended December 31, 2023

 The Target EBITDA set forth above may be subsequently amended by the Board to reflect any material changes in the
Partnership’s business, including as a result of any acquisition or divestiture of any business or assets. 
 (d)
    Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, and in each case effective immediately prior to such Change in Control (i) 50% of the unvested Type I Units and (ii) 50% of the unvested Type II Units (other than with respect to
the Unvested Type II Units from any Unvested Year(s) and/or Forfeited Year(s)) shall become vested, if, and only if, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 2(d), Employee remains in Continuous Service until immediately
prior to such Change in Control. Any Carried Units which remain unvested and do not accelerate or vest pursuant to the preceding sentence immediately prior to or in connection with a Change in Control will automatically terminate and be cancelled
for no payment of any kind as of such Change in Control. 
 (e)     All Carried Units that have become vested in
accordance with this Section 2 are referred to herein as “Vested Units,” and all other Carried Units are referred to herein as “Unvested Units.” Unvested Units will not participate in distributions,
including any distributions pursuant to the LP Agreement, by the Partnership unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion. 

  
 5 













 (f)     For purposes of this Agreement, Employee’s employment will
be considered terminated as of the date Employee is no longer actively providing services to the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of
employment or other laws in the jurisdiction where Employee is employed or otherwise rendering services, or the terms of Employee’s employment or service agreement, if any) (the “Termination Date”). Unless otherwise determined
by the Partnership or as set forth in a written agreement between Employee and the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, Employee’s right to vest in the Carried Units, if any, will terminate as of the Termination Date. The Termination Date
will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Employee’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment or other laws in the
jurisdiction where Employee is employed or otherwise rendering services or the terms of Employee’s employment or service agreement, if any). The Board shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Employee is no longer actively
providing services for purposes of the Carried Units (including whether Employee may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence). 

3.     Repurchase Option; Forfeiture. 

(a)     In the event Employee’s Continuous Service ceases for any reason (each, a “Termination”) or
in the event any laws, rules, or regulations (whether in effect on the date hereof or hereafter amended, promulgated, approved, reinterpreted or enacted) of any governmental or regulatory authority materially restrict the rights or obligations of
the Partnership or Employee hereunder or materially increase the obligations of the Partnership in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby including the issuance of the Carried Units or Employee holding the Carried Units, in each case as
determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion (each such instance, a “Regulatory Burden”), (i) all Unvested Units (whether held by Employee or one or more of Employee’s transferees (other than the Partnership and TB))
automatically (without any action by Employee or any of Employee’s transferees) will be forfeited to the Partnership and deemed canceled, forfeited and no longer outstanding without any payment therefor and (ii) all Vested Units (in each
case, whether held by Employee or one or more of Employee’s transferees (other than the Partnership and TB)), will be subject to a right of repurchase, in each case by the Partnership and TB pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Section 3 (the “Repurchase Option”). If such Termination results from Employee’s termination of employment with Cause, then all Carried Units, whether vested or unvested (whether held by Employee or one or more
of Employee’s transferees, other than the Partnership and TB) automatically (without any action by Employee or any of Employee’s transferees) will be forfeited to the Partnership and deemed canceled and no longer outstanding without any
payment therefor. 
 (b)     In the event of a Termination, the purchase price for each Vested Unit not forfeited
pursuant to Section 3(a) will be the Fair Market Value of such Vested Unit. The Fair Market Value of any Vested Unit for purposes of this Section 3(b) shall be the Fair Market Value of such Vested Unit as of the first date of
delivery of the Repurchase Notice or Supplemental Repurchase Notice, as the case may be. 
 (c)     The Board may elect
to cause the Partnership to purchase all or any portion of any of the Vested Units by delivering written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to Employee 

  
 6 













 
and, if applicable, Employee’s Permitted Transferees within 210 days after the Termination or date of the Board’s determination of such Regulatory Burden. The Repurchase Notice will set
forth the number of Vested Units to be acquired from each holder, the aggregate consideration to be paid for such Vested Units and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. If some Vested Units are held by Employee’s Permitted
Transferees and the Board elects to repurchase only a portion of the Vested Units, Employee shall be permitted to designate which of the Vested Units to be repurchased shall be repurchased from Employee and which shall be repurchased from
Employee’s Permitted Transferees. If Employee does not make such a designation, the number of Vested Units to be repurchased by the Partnership shall first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Vested Units held by Employee at the time
of delivery of the Repurchase Notice. If the number of Vested Units then held by Employee is less than the total number of Vested Units which the Partnership has elected to purchase, the Partnership shall purchase the remaining units elected to be
purchased from Employee’s Permitted Transferees, pro rata according to the number of Vested Units held by such Permitted Transferee(s) at the time of delivery of such Repurchase Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest unit).
Additionally, the Board may cause the Partnership to assign its rights under this Section 3 to one or more of its Affiliates. 

(d)     If for any reason the Partnership does not elect to purchase all of the Vested Units pursuant to the Repurchase
Option, TB shall be entitled to exercise the Repurchase Option for the Vested Units the Partnership has not elected to purchase (the “Available Units”). As soon as practicable after the Partnership has determined that there will be
Available Units, but in any event within 90 days after the Termination or date of the Board’s determination of such Regulatory Burden, the Partnership shall give written notice (the “Option Notice”) to TB setting forth the
number of Available Units and the purchase price for the Available Units. TB may elect to purchase any or all of the Available Units by giving written notice to the Partnership within 30 days after the Option Notice has been given by the
Partnership. If more than one member of TB elects to purchase Available Units, the purchase of such Vested Units shall be allocated among the members of TB based upon the number of Class B Units owned by each member of TB. As soon as
practicable, and in any event within ten days after the expiration of the applicable period set forth above, the Partnership shall notify each holder of Vested Units as to the number of Vested Units being purchased from such holder by TB (the
“Supplemental Repurchase Notice”). At the time the Partnership delivers the Supplemental Repurchase Notice to the holder(s) of Vested Units, the Partnership shall also deliver written notice to TB setting forth the number of Vested
Units TB is entitled to purchase, the aggregate purchase price and the time and place of the closing of the transaction. 
 (e)
    The closing of the purchase of the Vested Units pursuant to the Repurchase Option shall take place on the date designated by the Partnership or TB, as applicable, in the Repurchase Notice or, if later, the Supplemental
Repurchase Notice, which date shall not be more than 30 days nor less than five days after the delivery of the later of either such notice to be delivered. The Partnership will pay for the Vested Units to be purchased by it pursuant to the
Repurchase Option by first offsetting amounts outstanding under any bona fide debts, including for money borrowed from the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or for travel and expense advances owed by Employee to the Partnership or its Subsidiaries (or
one or more of Employee’s Permitted Transferees, other than the Partnership or TB), and upon full repayment of such bona fide debts, the Partnership will make payment by a check or wire transfer of funds in the aggregate amount of the remaining
purchase price for such Vested Units. TB will pay for the Vested Units to be 

  
 7 













 
purchased by it pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivery of a check or wire transfer of funds in the aggregate amount of the purchase price for such Vested Units. In connection with such
purchase, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Partnership and/or TB, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive from Employee and Employee’s Permitted Transferees (if any) customary representations and warranties regarding such sale and
the Vested Units subject thereto as well as a customary release of claims from Employee and any other seller related to the Vested Units or such Employee’s status as an equityholder of the Partnership, in each case in form and substance
satisfactory to the Partnership and/or TB, as applicable. 
 (f)     If, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Partnership (and/or TB and/or any other Person acquiring securities) shall make available, at the time and place and in the amount (it being understood that, in certain circumstances, the amount may be $0) and form on the terms and
conditions provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Vested Units to be repurchased, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then, from and after such time, the Person(s) from whom such Vested Units are to be
repurchased shall no longer hold any title or interest in such Vested Units and shall not have any rights as a holder of such Vested Units (other than the right to receive payment of the applicable consideration in accordance with this Agreement),
and such Vested Units shall be deemed repurchased in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 3 and the Partnership (and/or TB and/or any other Person acquiring securities) shall be deemed the owner and holder of such
Vested Units, whether or not the certificates therefor, if any, or any other deliverables have been delivered as required by this Agreement and whether or not the Person(s) from whom such Vested Units are to be repurchased shall take any other
action in connection with such repurchase (including acknowledging receipt of, or otherwise responding to, any Repurchase Notice or Supplemental Repurchase Notice). Notwithstanding this Section 3(f), Employee hereby agrees to take such
actions as are required to be taken by Employee pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement in connection with any such repurchase. 
 (g)
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all repurchases of Vested Units by the Partnership shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act
and in the Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ debt and equity financing agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit the repurchase of Vested Units hereunder which the Partnership is otherwise entitled or required to make, the
Partnership may, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, delay and toll the time period for any such repurchases until such time as it is permitted to do so under such laws and agreements. 

(h)     The Repurchase Option set forth in this Section 3, to the extent unexercised, shall continue with
respect to the Vested Units following any transfer thereof, but in all respects subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

(i)     As provided in Section 4.6 of the LP Agreement, the repurchase of Vested Units pursuant to this
Section 3 may be effectuated by distributing to the holder one or more classes of securities issued by a Subsidiary of the Partnership (the “Substitute Securities”), provided that, promptly following such
distribution, the Subsidiary that issued the Substitute Securities shall redeem or repurchase the Substitute Securities from such holder for an amount of cash equal to the purchase price applicable to the Vested Units that were exchanged for such
Substitute Securities (which Transfer the Partnership and the holder will treat as a distribution of securities of the Subsidiary under Code Section 731(a)). 

  
 8 













 4.     Transferability. The Carried Units are subject to the
transfer restrictions contained in the LP Agreement and the Repurchase Option. On the date hereof, Employee shall execute and deliver a joinder to the LP Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, and agree to be bound by the terms
and provisions thereof. On the date hereof, if applicable, Employee and Employee’s spouse shall execute and deliver a spousal consent, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof.
Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement that may exist now or be entered into in the future between Employee and Employee’s spouse (if any), neither the Partnership nor TB is obligated to recognize Employee’s current or
former spouse (if any) interest in any Carried Units in any way. 
 5.     Withholding. The Partnership may
withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Agreement or otherwise such federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise taxes, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) as may be required to be withheld by the Partnership or
any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. Employee shall pay to the Partnership or make arrangements satisfactory to the Partnership to pay the amount of all applicable Taxes that the Partnership or any of its
Subsidiaries is required to withhold at any time. If Employee shall fail to make such payment, the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind otherwise due to
Employee any Taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Carried Units. In the event that the Partnership fails to withhold any Taxes required to be withheld by applicable law or regulation, Employee shall indemnify the
Partnership and its Subsidiaries for any amounts paid by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any such Taxes but only to the extent Employee has not already paid such Taxes. 

6.     Confidential Information; Non-Compete; Non Solicitation. 

(a)     Confidential Information. Employee recognizes and acknowledges that by reason of Employee’s employment
with or engagement by the Partnership or its Affiliates, Employee will have access to confidential and/or proprietary information of the Partnership and/or any of its Affiliates, including (i) trade secrets, inventions, ideas, processes,
methods, apparatus, equipment, software, data, programs, listings, patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, other works of authorship, know-how, technology improvements, specifications, formulas,
discoveries, developments, designs, drawings, documents, sketches, drawings, models and techniques relating to the current, future and proposed products and services of the Partnership (collectively, “Inventions”); (ii) information
and data regarding research, development, new products and services, design, details and specifications, engineering, marketing and sales, business records and plans, budgets, plans for future developments, business forecasts, financial statements
and other financial information, licenses, costs, procurement requirements, policies or operational methods, suppliers, customers, potential customers and key personnel, market studies and forecasts, target markets, competitive analyses, sales and
pricing policies, sales and pricing information and techniques, promotional strategies, the identity, skills and compensation of employees, personnel policies, the substance of agreements with customers, suppliers and others, marketing or dealership
arrangements, servicing and training programs and arrangements, customer lists, customer preferences, customer needs, customer data, customer contact information, profit margins, 

  
 9 













 
overhead, and the Partnership’s methods and techniques for running its business, including but not limited to technical information relating to the creation, installation, repair or
maintenance of its products and the services the Partnership provides; and (iii) information regarding the skills and compensation of other employees, independent contractors or consultants of the Partnership ((i), (ii) and
(iii) collectively, and in any form or medium, “Proprietary Information”). Employee hereby assigns to the Partnership all rights Employee may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognizes and agrees that all
Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Partnership and its assigns. 
 (b)     Intellectual
Property, Inventions and Patents. 
 (i)     Ownership. Employee acknowledges and agrees that
all Inventions and Proprietary Rights (as defined below) conceived, developed, fabricated, improved, made or reduced to practice by Employee (A) within the scope of Employee’s employment or engagement; (B) while using the
Partnership’s time, materials, equipment, facilities, personnel, technology, software, code, utilities, tools, applications or other resources; or (C) otherwise relating the Proprietary Information of the Partnership, whether in whole or
in part, either solely or jointly with others, during the term of Employee’s employment by or service to the Partnership (collectively, “Work Product”) belong to the Partnership as set forth below or as a result of assignment
from Employee to the Partnership as set forth below. “Proprietary Rights” means all trade secret, patent, copyright, mask work and other intellectual property rights throughout the world. 

(ii)     Works for Hire. Employee acknowledges and agrees that all Work Product or other original
works of authorship are “works made for hire,” pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101) (as a result of which the Partnership shall be the author) and, to the extent that such Work Product or other original
works of authorship may not be deemed “works made for hire,” Employee hereby irrevocably and perpetually assigns, transfers and conveys and agrees to so assign, transfer and convey in the future to the Partnership all of Employee’s
right, title and interest to such Work Product or other original works of authorship throughout the world, including, without limitation, all moral rights and the rights to sue for past infringement. Employee represents that such assignment does not
violate the terms and conditions of any agreement to which Employee is a party or by which Employee is bound. 
 (iii)
    Disclosure of Inventions. Employee will inform the Partnership promptly and fully of any Invention and/or Work Product and upon request by the Partnership will set forth in writing in such details as are necessary to
explain the Invention and/or Work Product, including, without limitation, measurements, theories, processes, structures, procedures, and methodology employed and the results achieved. Upon the Partnership’s request, Employee will execute all
documents necessary to confirm or perfect the Partnership’s exclusive ownership of any Inventions and Work Product as set forth in this Section 6(b). Employee will execute such documents and provide such assistance as may be deemed
necessary by the Partnership to apply for, defend, or enforce any United States and foreign patents, copyrights, and related rights based on or related to such Inventions and Work Product. In the event the Partnership is unable for any reason, after
reasonable effort, to secure Employee’s signature on any document needed in connection 

  
 10 













 
with the actions specified above, Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Partnership and its duly authorized officers and agents as Employee’s agent and attorney in fact,
which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and on Employee’s behalf to execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of this Section 6(b) and this
Agreement with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee. Employee hereby waives and quitclaims to the Partnership any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which Employee now or may hereafter have for infringement of any
Invention assigned hereunder to the Partnership. 
 (iv)     Prior Proprietary Rights. Proprietary
Rights, if any, patented or unpatented, which Employee made prior to the commencement of Employee’s employment or engagement with the Partnership are excluded from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible uncertainty, Employee has
set forth on Annex A, attached hereto, a complete list of all Proprietary Rights that Employee has, alone or jointly with others, conceived, developed or reduced to practice or caused to be conceived, developed or reduced to practice prior to
the commencement of Employee’s employment or engagement with the Partnership, that Employee considered to be Employee’s property or the property of third parties and that Employee wishes to have excluded from the scope of this Agreement
(collectively, “Prior Proprietary Rights”). If disclosure of any such Prior Proprietary Right would cause Employee to violate any prior confidentiality agreement, Employee understands that Employee is not to list such Prior
Proprietary Rights in Annex A but is only to disclose a cursory name for each such Proprietary Right, a listing of the party(ies) to whom it belongs and the fact that full disclosure as to such Proprietary Rights has not been made for that
reason. If no such disclosure is attached, Employee represents that there are no Prior Proprietary Rights. If, in the course of Employee’s employment or engagement with the Partnership, Employee incorporates a Prior Proprietary Right into a
Partnership product, process or machine, the Partnership is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicenses) to
make, have made, modify, use and sell such Prior Proprietary Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee agrees that Employee will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, Prior Proprietary Rights in any Inventions of the Partnership
without the Partnership’s prior written consent. 
 (c)
    Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Non-Disparagement. 

(i)     During Employee’s Continuous Service and for a period of twelve (12) months after the
date on which Employee’s Continuous Service ceases, Employee shall not directly or indirectly participate in any activity, and shall cause each Person controlled by Employee not to participate in any activity, in each case that would qualify as
Competition in the Territory (as defined below). For purposes hereof, “Competition” means to directly or indirectly own any interest in, manage, operate, control, invest or acquire an interest in, participate in, consult with,
render services to or for, operate or in any manner engage in, any Person, business or enterprise (including any division, group or franchise of a larger organization), whether as a proprietor, owner, member, partner, stockholder, director, officer,
employee, consultant, joint venturer, investor, licensor, sales representative or other participant, that conducts, participates in or constitutes a business or business line that the Partnership is conducting or that the Partnership conducted
during 

  
 11 













 
the one (1) year period immediately preceding the date that Employee is no longer employed by the Partnership or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Partnership. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, Employee shall not be prohibited from owning up to two percent (2%) of the outstanding stock of a corporation that is engaged in Competition and that is publicly traded on a national securities exchange or in the over
the counter market so long as Employee has no active participation or management authority in connection with the business of such corporation partnership, company venture or other enterprise. 

(ii)     As used in this Agreement, “Territory” means all of the United States of America
and all of each other country in which the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries generates sales, markets products or provides services during Employee’s employment or engagement or, upon termination of Employee’s employment or
engagement, generated sales, marketed products or provided services at any time during the one (1) year period prior to the termination of Employee’s employment or engagement. 

(iii)     During Employee’s Continuous Service and for a period of twenty-four (24) months after
the date on which Employee’s Continuous Service ceases, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of Employee or any other person, and shall cause any Person controlled by Employee not to directly or indirectly:
(A) induce, contact, encourage, solicit or hire or attempt to induce, contact, encourage, solicit or hire any employee, associate, consultant, agent or representative of the Partnership, who is or was an employee, associate, consultant, agent
or representative of the Partnership on or during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the date of Employee’s termination of employment or engagement with the Partnership, to leave the employ of the Partnership or alter in any way
the services provided to the Partnership; (B) induce, contact, encourage, or solicit or to attempt to induce, contact, encourage, or solicit any customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, distributor, contractor or other business relation of the
Partnership, who is or was a customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, distributor, contractor or other business relation of the Partnership, on or during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the date of Employee’s termination of
employment or engagement with the Partnership, to cease doing business with or alter in any way such Person’s business with, or adversely alter its business relationship with, the Partnership; or (C) hire or retain any Person who is or was
an employee, associate, consultant, agent or representative of the Partnership on or during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the date of Employee’s termination of employment or engagement with the Partnership. The foregoing
restrictions on hiring only shall not apply to residents of the State of California. 
 (iv)     For so
long as Employee is employed or engaged by the Partnership and for all times thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause any Person controlled by Employee not to, make or solicit or encourage others to make or solicit
directly or indirectly any derogatory or negative statement or communication about the Partnership or any of the Partnership’s respective businesses, products, services or activities; provided, however, that such restriction shall
not prohibit truthful testimony compelled by valid legal process. 

  
 12 













 (d)     Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of any of
Sections 6(a) through 6(c) above, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such
circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because Employee’s services are unique and because Employee has access to Proprietary Information and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money damages would not
be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Partnership or its successors or assigns, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, shall
be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition,
in the event of an actual breach or violation by Employee of Section 6(c), the applicable restricted period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in
Sections 6(a) through 6(c) are reasonable and that Employee has received good and valuable consideration in exchange for such covenants. 

(e)     For purposes of Section 5, “Partnership” will mean the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and
controlled Affiliates. 
 7.     Definitions. 

“Affiliate” means, as to any Person, any other Person which directly or indirectly controls, is under common control with, or
is controlled by, such Person. As used in this definition, “control” (including, with its correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) shall mean possession, directly or indirectly, of power to
direct or cause the direction of management or policies (whether through ownership of securities or partnership or other ownership interests, by contract or otherwise). 

“Carried Units” has the meaning assigned to it in the Recitals to this Agreement. Carried Units will continue to be Carried
Units in the hands of any holder other than Employee (except for the Partnership and TB and except for transferees in a Public Sale) and, except as otherwise provided herein, each such other holder of Carried Units will succeed to all rights and
obligations attributable to Employee as a holder of Carried Units hereunder. Carried Units shall also include equity securities of the Partnership issued with respect to Carried Units by way of a unit split, distribution of units or other
recapitalization. For the avoidance of doubt, all Unvested Units shall remain Unvested Units after any Transfer (as such term is defined in the LP Agreement). Any Units issued in respect of a contribution of Carried Units will continue to be Carried
Units for purposes of this Agreement and the LP Agreement, and will have the same rights and obligations binding upon Carried Units (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Article VIII (Transfer of Partnership Interests) and Article XII (Change in
Business Form; Merger) of the LP Agreement), and any such contribution or exchange shall in no way modify or limit such rights or obligations. 

“Cause” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in any written employment or services agreement between the Partnership
or any of its Subsidiaries and Employee or, in the absence of any such written employment or services agreement, shall mean a dismissal as a result of (a) Employee’s failure to substantially perform Employee’s duties as an employee of
the 

  
 13 













 
Partnership (or any of its Subsidiaries) (other than any such failure resulting from Employee’s disability, as defined in accordance with the policies of the Partnership or its
Subsidiaries); (b) the Board’s determination that Employee failed in any material respect to carry out or comply with any lawful and reasonable directive of the Board consistent with the terms of Employee’s employment;
(c) Employee’s material breach of this Agreement or any other written agreement between Employee and the Partnership or its Subsidiaries (it being understood that any breach of the restrictive covenants in Section 6 shall be
deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement); (d) Employee’s conviction, plea of no contest, plea of nolo contendere, or imposition of unadjudicated probation for any felony or crime involving moral turpitude;
(e) Employee’s unlawful use (including being under the influence) or possession of illegal drugs on the Partnership’s (or any of its Affiliate’s) premises or while performing Employee’s duties and responsibilities consistent
with the terms of Employee’s employment; or (f) Employee’s commission of an act of fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, willful misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duty against the Partnership or any of its Affiliates. 

“Change in Control” means a Sale of the Partnership (as defined in the LP Agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, the
acquisition of Instructure, Inc. by an Affiliate of the Partnership prior to the date hereof is not, and shall never constitute, a Change in Control. 

“Continuous Service” means an individual’s continuous employment with, or continuous provision of services to, the
Partnership or one of its Subsidiaries. 
 “EBITDA” shall have the meaning of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” as
such term is defined in (i) that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of March 24, 2020, by and among Instructure Intermediate Holdings III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as holdings, Instructure Holdings, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, as the parent borrower, PIV Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the initial subsidiary borrower, Instructure, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the successor subsidiary borrower, the other guarantors from time to
time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Golub Capital Markets LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), or
(ii) any successor or replacement senior credit facility or credit agreement following a refinancing of the existing senior credit facility or credit agreement of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as the same may be
further adjusted to reflect any additional adjustments included in the calculation of “Management EBITDA” as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. 

“Fair Market Value” of each Carried Unit means the fair value of such Carried Unit as determined in good faith by the Board
applying the provisions of Sections 11.2(a)(ii) and 11.2(b) of the LP Agreement. 
 “LP Agreement” means the Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, dated as of March 24, 2020, as amended, supplemented, modified or restated from time to time. 

“Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time.

 (b)
    Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed,
construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
 (c)
    Confidentiality. Employee may not disclose the terms of this Agreement (except to Employee’s legal, tax and financial advisors) without the prior written consent of the Partnership and TB. 

(d)     Complete Agreement. This Agreement, those documents expressly referred to herein (including the Plan) and
other documents of even date herewith embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, that may have related
to the subject matter hereof in any way, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the granting or vesting of incentive equity (including any accelerated, modified or additional vesting in connection with or following any change in ownership or
control, such as a “double-trigger” vesting provision); provided, that the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any existing or future nondisclosure, noncompete, nonsolicitation,
nondisparagement, confidentiality, invention assignment, work product, work-for-hire, intellectual property protection or assignment or other restrictive covenant or
similar obligations contained in any other agreements between Employee and the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 (e)
    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the

Agreement (and any claims, issues, controversies or matters arising hereunder) shall be governed by the internal law of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of

(h)     JURISDICTION AND VENUE. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN
ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING SEEKING EQUITABLE RELIEF) SHALL PROPERLY AND EXCLUSIVELY LIE IN THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE

(including TB) shall be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages and costs (including attorney’s fees) caused by any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing
in its favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent
jurisdiction in accordance with Section 9(h) (without posting any bond or deposit) for specific performance and/or other injunctive relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement.

of Employee’s employment with the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and shall remain in full force and effect after such termination.
