Effective June 11, 2025, Eren Bali, Chief Technology Officer of Udemy, Inc. (the "Company"), transitioned from his role as Chief Technology Officer to Head of Innovation.

In connection with this transition, the Company and Mr. Bali entered into an employment offer letter dated as of June 9, 2025 (the "Employment Agreement"). The Employment Agreement does not have a specific term and provides that Mr. Bali will be an at-will employee. The Employment Agreement provides that, from June 11, 2025 to August 15, 2025, Mr. Bali will serve on a full-time basis and continue with his current compensation and benefits, provided that Mr. Bali will cease to be eligible for the Company's 2025 annual bonus opportunity and Mr. Bali's change-in-control and severance agreement shall terminate and cease to apply, in each case as of June 11, 2025. After August 15, 2025, the Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Bali will serve on a part-time basis and be entitled to a base salary of $120,000 per year. The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

On June 8, 2025, the Board appointed Ozzie Goldschmied to succeed Mr. Bali as Chief Technology Officer, effective as of June 11, 2025. Mr. Goldschmied, age 48, has worked as an independent consultant from January 2021 to June 2025, including as founder and CEO of GoldenRock Inc., a technical consultancy, from October 2022 to June 2025. Mr. Goldschmied previously served at Dayforce, Inc. (f/k/a Ceridian HCM Holding, Inc.) as its Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer from October 2014 to December 2020 and as Senior Vice President of Research and Development from February 2012 to September 2014. Mr. Goldschmied joined Dayforce, Inc. in 2012 upon the company's acquisition of Dayforce Corporation, where Mr. Goldschmied served as Senior Vice President of Engineering. He holds a Bachelor of Mathematics in Computer Science from the University of Waterloo.

In connection with Mr. Goldschmied's appointment as Chief Technology Officer, the Company and Mr. Goldschmied entered into a consulting agreement dated as of June 11, 2025 (the "Consulting Agreement"). The Consulting Agreement has a term lasting until the later of August 15, 2025 or the date reasonably necessary to complete the formation of the Company's Canadian subsidiary and implement the necessary services to employ local personnel (the "Consulting Period"). Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Goldschmied will be entitled to a cash consulting fee of $39,166.67 per month, as well as an initial grant of 645,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which RSUs will be issued pursuant to the Company's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan and form of RSU award agreement thereunder. One-third of the RSUs will vest after one year, with the remainder vesting in equal quarterly installments over the following two years. The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto. Additionally, the Company will enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Mr. Goldschmied.

Upon the conclusion of the Consulting Period, the Company intends to transition Mr. Goldschmied to an employee of a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, pursuant to the terms of an employment contract in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Consulting Agreement. At such time, the Company also intends to enter into a change in control and severance agreement with Mr. Goldschmied in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Consulting Agreement.

On June 11, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the matters described in this Item 5.02, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Exhibit 10.1**

[Letterhead of Udemy, Inc.]

**Employment Offer Letter**

June 9, 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Dear Eren,

Your contributions to Udemy cannot be overstated. Most recently, your leadership, vision, and enthusiasm as Udemy's Chief Technology Officer have been pivotal to the continued growth and success of the Company. We are thrilled to have you continue to drive innovation at Udemy in a new and exciting capacity.

I am pleased to offer you the position of Head of Innovation here at Udemy. You will be reporting to me in my role as Udemy's President and CEO. For an interim period between June 11 and August 15, 2025, you will serve in this role on a full-time basis and the terms and conditions of your current employment will continue to apply. Beginning August 16, 2025, you will be employed on a part-time basis normally scheduled to work fewer than 30 hours per week and the terms and conditions of this Offer Letter shall thereafter apply.

This offer is conditioned on your continued compliance with our At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement, which you executed on August 25, 2024.

**Remote**

You will perform your work remotely and you will be based out of Southern California.

**Salary Base Pay**

Your starting base salary will be $120,000 per year, less applicable payroll deductions and withholdings as required by law. You will be paid semi-monthly, on the 15th and the last day of the month.

**Benefits**

As an employee of Udemy, you may be eligible for certain benefits in accordance with the Company's policies, group plan requirements, and applicable law.

**Paid Time Off**

Udemy wants to make sure that you focus on getting your work done, not focusing on how many days you have worked. Accordingly, instead of using an accrual-based paid time-off policy for exempt employees, 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. In addition to this we have a holiday schedule that is published each year.

**At-Will Employment**

**Employment with Udemy is for no specific period of time. Your employment with Udemy will be "at will," meaning that either you or Udemy may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this offer letter. This is the full and complete agreement between you and Udemy on this** 

------

**term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as Udemy's personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the "at will" nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of Udemy (other than you).**

**Confidentiality**

Udemy has extended this offer to you based upon your knowledge, background, experience and skills and abilities and not because of your knowledge of your current employer or any previous employer's trade secrets or other company specific information. As a condition of employment at Udemy 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 Udemy. In this regard, you may not bring to Udemy any documents or other materials in tangible form belonging to or acquired from any current or prior employer.

**Transition Matters**

By signing this letter below, you agree that (i) your transition into this role will not constitute a "Qualifying Non-CIC Termination" or "Qualifying CIC Termination" for purposes of your Change in Control and Severance Agreement, which you executed on July 29, 2024 (the "Severance Agreement"), (ii) the Severance Agreement will terminate and cease to apply as of June 11, 2025, and (iii) you will no longer be eligible for the 2025 annual bonus opportunity or any future annual bonus opportunity.

**Miscellaneous** 

We ask that, if you have not already done so, you disclose to Udemy any and all agreements relating to your prior employment that may affect your eligibility to be employed by Udemy or limit the manner in which you may be employed. It is Udemy's understanding that any such agreements will not prevent you from performing the duties of your position and you represent that such is the case. Moreover, you agree that, during the term of your employment with Udemy, you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting, or other business activity directly related to the business in which Udemy is now involved or becomes involved during the term of your employment, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your obligations to Udemy.

**Interpretation, Amendment and Enforcement**

This letter and the At Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment and Arbitration Agreement constitute the complete understanding ("Employment Agreement") between you and Udemy. The Employment Agreement contains all of the terms of your employment with Udemy and supersedes any prior understandings, representations or understandings (whether written, oral or implied) between you and Udemy. This letter may not be amended or modified, except by an express written understanding signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of Udemy. **This letter does not, in any way, modify your "at will" status, or constitute a binding employment agreement.** The terms of this letter and the resolution of any disputes as to the meaning, effect, performance or validity of this letter or arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this letter, your employment with Udemy or any other relationship between you and Udemy will be governed by California law, excluding laws relating to conflicts or choice of law.

------

We look forward to you remaining a part of the Udemy team!

Please confirm your acceptance by signing and returning the enclosed copy of this letter by June 10, 2025.

This offer of employment lapses if not accepted by June 10, 2025.

Yours sincerely,

/s/ Hugo Sarrazin

LIKEWISE, THIS AGREEMENT DOES PRECLUDE CONSULTANT FROM PURSUING COURT ACTION REGARDING ANY ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIMS, EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY LAW.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)<u>Voluntary Nature of Agreement</u>.

**EXHIBIT B**

**EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT**

**[DATE - Estimated August 15, 2025]**

Dear Ozzie Goldschmied:

**<u>Re: Employment Agreement with Udemy Canada ("Udemy" or the "Company")</u>**

On behalf of Udemy, I am pleased to make the following offer of employment to you on the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement (the "Agreement"), and in our policies that may be implemented and amended from time to time. Your signature in the space provided at the end of this document indicates your acceptance of this offer of employment on the terms and conditions set out below. Please review this agreement carefully as it contains terms that govern how your employment with the Company may be terminated as well as restrictive covenants that will continue after your employment ends (for any reason).

Even though you will now be directly employed by Udemy, and no longer providing services to us as an independent contractor, and although this employment agreement can be considered consideration in and of itself, for the avoidance of any doubt, the Company will pay you a **one-time signing bonus of $1,000 CAD** as additional consideration for entering into this Agreement according to the terms and conditions below.

1.**<u>Start Date:</u>** You will commence employment with the Company on [Date - Estimated August 15, 2025] ("Start Date"). The Company acknowledges that you have been providing services as an independent contractor since June 11, 2025 ("Initial Start Date") and will recognize your service with the Company as having commenced on the Initial Start Date.

2.**<u>Position and Duties:</u>** You will hold the position of Chief Technology Officer reporting to Hugo Sarrazin.

You agree to perform your duties in a faithful and diligent manner, to the best of your ability. You also agree to devote all of your business time, attention, skill and effort exclusively to the Company's business at all times in compliance with the policies, procedures, directions and instructions given to you by the Company. Similar work of any nature elsewhere or participation in any business similar to or competitive with the Company is not permitted unless approved by the Company in writing. You acknowledge and agree that you owe a duty of loyalty, fidelity and allegiance to act at all times in the best interests of the Company and to do no act or omission and to make no statement, oral or written, which would injure the Company's business, interests or reputation.

------

3.**<u>Salary:</u>** Your (gross) annual salary will be $649,348.57 CAD<sup>1</sup>, less regular withholdings and any applicable insurance or benefit premiums.

You will be paid on a pro-rated basis through direct deposit in accordance with the Company's regular payroll schedule. Any future wage increases will be entirely at the Company's discretion, and an increase in any given year does not imply or guarantee an increase in any subsequent year(s).

4.**<u>Bonus or Incentive:</u>** In your position, you will be eligible to be considered by the Company for the award of a bonus with an annual target of 70% of your annual base salary (the "Target Bonus"). If the Target Bonus or any portion thereof is awarded to you, it shall be paid in cash.

The purpose of bonuses is to reward employees for their contributions to the Company and to retain talent. The award of this bonus and the amount of a bonus, if one is awarded, shall be determined by the Company's board of directors. The payment of a bonus in one year or in a series of years does not imply or guarantee that you will continue to receive a bonus in future year(s), nor does it imply or guarantee the amount of any such future bonus(es), if awarded.

Since such bonuses are designed to reward employees for actual contributions to the performance of the Company and to retain employees, you shall cease to be eligible to receive a bonus as soon as you give notice of resignation or your active employment ends (without regard to any statutory, "common law," or contractual notice period) subject only to the minimum requirements of the *Employment Standards Act, 2000* (as amended) (the "**ESA**"). For greater certainty, unless otherwise mandated by the ESA, no notice period, whether given by you as notice of resignation or by the Company as notice of termination (or which a court or tribunal determines ought to have been given by the Company), shall extend your eligibility to receive a bonus or to receive compensation or damages for the loss of any bonus(es) or the opportunity to earn or receive such bonus(es).

For purposes of calculating any bonus during your first year of employment, you will be given service credit from the Initial Start Date.

5.**<u>Initial Grant of Stock:</u>** Reference is made to the grant of restricted stock units (the "RSUs") previously granted to you by Udemy, Inc. ("Parent") pursuant to that certain consulting agreement, dated June 11, 2025 (the "Consulting Agreement"). If you accept the offer of employment from the Company, the RSUs will continue to vest in accordance with their terms, subject to continued service with Parent or a subsidiary of Parent (including the Company). No RSUs will vest before such date, and no rights to any vesting shall be earned or accrued prior to such date. This RSU grant will otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of Parent's equity incentive plan and RSU agreement in effect at the time of grant. No right to any shares of Parent common stock issuable pursuant to the RSU grant will be earned or accrued until such time that vesting occurs, nor does this grant confer any right to continue vesting or employment with the

------

Company or its subsidiaries. You shall cease to be eligible to receive RSUs as soon as your active employment ends (without regard to any statutory, "common law," or contractual notice period) subject only to the minimum requirements of the ESA. For greater certainty, unless otherwise mandated by the ESA, no notice period, whether by the Company as notice of termination (or which a court or tribunal determines ought to have been given by the Company), shall extend your eligibility to receive RSUs or to receive compensation or damages for the loss of any RSUs or the opportunity to earn or receive such RSUs.

6.**<u>Future Grants of Stock</u>**: You will be eligible to receive additional equity or other long-term incentive awards pursuant to any plans or arrangements Parent may have in effect from time to time. Parent's board of directors (the "Board") will determine in its discretion whether you will be granted any such awards and the terms of any such awards in accordance with the terms of any applicable plan or arrangement that may be in effect from time to time. Your eligibility for such awards will begin in 2026 subject to such awards being made by the Board during its normal executive compensation review cycle with the terms and amounts of awards to be made to you consistent with the methodology applied to Parent's senior executives.

7.**<u>Benefits:</u>** The Company does not currently have a group benefits plan and therefore will provide you with a monthly stipend of $1,000 CAD so that you can purchase your own supplemental coverage. If and when the Company does implement a group benefits plan, you will no longer be eligible for this stipend but will be eligible to enroll in the Company's group benefits plan in accordance with the written terms set out in the benefit booklet that will be distributed to you, and subject to the terms of the contract with the insurer. However, the Company's group benefits plan may be amended or suspended, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time by the Company, without providing any prior notice (or if applicable legislation such as the ESA requires any notice to be provided to affected employees, then by providing only the minimum amount of notice required by such legislation).

8.**<u>Vacation:</u>** The Company 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; provided, that you will always be entitled to the minimum amount of vacation time prescribed by the ESA. Vacation time must be taken at times approved by your direct supervisor, in writing, and in accordance with the Company's vacation policy and practices.

Your salary above is deemed inclusive of vacation pay. You will be entitled to vacation pay if and only if the value of your recorded weeks of paid vacation is less than the minimum amount of vacation pay required under the ESA.

In the event you resign or your employment is terminated for just cause, the Company will not 'buy out' any of your unused vacation time, but it will pay to you any accrued but unpaid statutory vacation pay in accordance with the ESA.

9.**<u>Hours of Work & Overtime:</u>** 

Although your core hours of work will be **9:00 a.m.** to **5:00 p.m.**, Monday through Friday, you agree that your hours of work will ultimately be those hours required to carry out your duties and responsibilities. You agree to work in excess of your regular daily hours of work when required by the Company. You understand and agree that, due to the

------

nature of your duties with the Company, some or all of the parts of the ESA that regulate breaks, maximum hours of work, and entitle some employees to overtime pay may not apply to you. The Company reserves the right to alter your work schedule to meet changing business needs, and you agree that it may do so by providing you with only the minimum amount of notice (if any) required by the ESA to make such changes.

In your position, you are considered exempt from overtime pay in accordance with the rules established in the ESA, which shall continue to be the case until, in light of the nature of your duties and responsibilities, the Company determines that you are no longer eligible for overtime and informs you of this in writing.

In order to perform the administrative tasks related to this position, you may be required to set-up a home office and/or to work from the Company's offices and/or coworking spaces. The home office space should be of adequate size to perform your duties and for the storage of pertinent files and materials used in your day to day work. It is estimated that work will be required from your home office operations. Work may be required from your home office approximately 40% of the time and travel (including but not limited to possible travel to Udemy's office located at **[ADDRESS OF UDEMY CANADA - To be Determined]**) approximately 60% of the time. This will be reflected on your T2200 form at the end of the financial year. The Company will not reimburse the costs related for the set-up or maintenance of the home office.

10.**<u>Restrictions on Employment:</u>** You represent to the Company that you are under no restrictions or prohibitions, including any owed to another employer, that prevent you from lawfully fulfilling your duties and responsibilities under this employment contract.

11.**<u>Previous Employment:</u>** You acknowledge and agree that the Company has not induced you to leave your current employment. You further acknowledge and agree that any service with any of your other or previous employers will not be recognized by the Company for any purpose.

12.**<u>Ability to Work in Canada:</u>** The offer of employment from the Company will be conditional upon you being able to lawfully work in Canada. Moreover, your ongoing employment shall remain conditional upon you being able to lawfully work in Canada, failing which you agree that the Company may terminate your employment without notice or pay in lieu of notice, subject only to the minimum requirements of the ESA (if any).

13.**<u>Ability to Travel:</u>** The offer of employment from the Company will be conditional upon you being able to lawfully travel outside of Canada, particularly to the United States of America. Moreover, your ongoing employment shall remain conditional upon you being able to lawfully travel outside of Canada, failing which you agree that the Company may terminate your employment without notice or pay in lieu of notice, subject only to the minimum requirements of the ESA (if any).

14.**<u>Company Policies:</u>** You shall comply with all of the Company's policies and procedures, including any updated and amended versions of them. The Company reserves the right to implement new policies or remove or modify existing policies without providing any prior notice (or if the ESA requires any notice to be provided to affected employees, then by providing only the minimum amount of notice required by the ESA).

**EXHIBIT C**

**CHANGE IN CONTROL & SEVERANCE AGREEMENT**

**UDEMY, INC.**

**CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT**

This Change in Control and Severance Agreement (this "***Agreement***") is made between Udemy, Inc. (the "***Company***") and Ozzie Goldschmied (the "***Executive***"), effective as of the date the Executive commences employment with any member of the Company Group (the "***Effective Date***").

This Agreement provides certain protections to the Executive in connection with a change in control of the Company or in connection with the involuntary termination of the Executive's employment under the circumstances described in this Agreement.

The Company and the Executive agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.Term of Agreement**. This Agreement will have an initial term commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the "***Initial Term***"). At the end of the Initial Term and each third (3rd) anniversary thereafter, this Agreement will renew automatically for additional, three (3) year terms (each, an "***Additional Term***") unless either party provides the other party with written notice of nonrenewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the date of automatic renewal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs when there are fewer than twelve (12) months remaining during the Initial Term or Additional Term, as applicable, the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is twelve (12) months following the date of the Change in Control. If the Executive becomes entitled to the benefits under Section 3 of this Agreement, then the Agreement will not terminate until all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.Severance Benefits.** The Parties intend to comply with all applicable employment-related legislation, which may change from time to time. If there are any obligations that are required under the applicable employment-related legislation that require payments or benefits not described in this Agreement, then the Company will comply with those obligations, but the Executive shall receive no more than what is necessary to achieve such compliance.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Qualifying Non-CIC Termination</u>. On a Qualifying Non-CIC Termination (as defined below), the Executive will be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits from the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)*Severance*. A single, lump sum payment equal to the sum of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;six (6) months of the Executive's Salary (as defined below), less applicable withholdings, plus

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;an amount equal to Executive's prorated Target Bonus (as defined below), with such prorated Target Bonus to be calculated by multiplying the Executive's Target Bonus by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Executive was employed with the Company in the calendar year in which such termination occurs, and (y) the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)*Benefit Coverage*. The Company will pay the premiums for coverage under its extended health plan (the "***Company Plan***") for the Executive and the Executive's eligible dependents, if any, at the rates then in effect, subject to any subsequent changes in rates that are generally applicable to the Company's active employees (the "***Benefits Coverage***"), until the earliest of (A) a period of six (6) months from the date of the Executive's termination of employment, (B) the date upon which the Executive (and the Executive's eligible dependents, as applicable) becomes covered under similar plans, or (C) the date upon which the Executive ceases to be eligible for coverage under the terms of the Company Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Qualifying CIC Termination</u>. On a Qualifying CIC Termination, the Executive will be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits from the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)*Severance*. A single, lump sum payment equal to twelve (12) months of the Executive's Salary *plus* 100% of the Executive's Target Bonus, less applicable withholdings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)*Benefit Coverage*. The Company will provide Benefits Coverage until the earliest of (A) a period of twelve (12) months from the date of the Executive's termination of employment, (B) the date upon which the Executive (and the Executive's eligible dependents, as applicable) becomes covered under similar plans, or (C) the date upon which the

------

Executive ceases to be eligible for coverage under the terms of the Company Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)*Equity Vesting Acceleration*. Vesting acceleration (and exercisability, as applicable) as to 100% of the then-unvested shares subject to each of the Executive's then-outstanding compensatory equity awards issued by the Company. In the case of an equity award with performance-based vesting, unless otherwise specified in the applicable equity award agreement governing such award, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at target.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination</u>. If the termination of the Executive's employment with the Company Group is not a Qualifying Termination, then the Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Non-Duplication of Payment or Benefits</u>. For purposes of clarity, in the event of a Qualifying Pre-CIC Termination, any severance payments and benefits to be provided to the Executive under Section 3(b) will be reduced by any amounts that already were provided to the Executive under Section 3(a). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, or vesting acceleration of any equity awards (other than under this Agreement) by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which any member of the Company Group is a party ("***Other Benefits***"), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to the Executive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Death of the Executive</u>. In the event of the Executive's death before all payments or benefits the Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to the Executive's designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to the Executive's personal representative in a single lump sum as soon as possible following the Executive's death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)<u>Transfer Between Members of the Company Group</u>. For purposes of this Agreement, if the Executive is involuntarily transferred from one member of the Company Group to another, the transfer will not be a termination without Cause but may give the Executive the ability to resign for Good Reason.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)<u>Exclusive Remedy</u>. In the event of a termination of the Executive's employment with the Company Group, the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, or in equity. The Executive will be entitled to no benefits, compensation or other payments or rights upon termination of employment other than those benefits expressly set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.Accrued Compensation.** On any termination of the Executive's employment with the Company Group, the Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to the Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Conditions to Receipt of Severance.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Separation Agreement and Release of Claims</u>. The Executive's receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon the Executive's Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive signing and not revoking the Company's then-standard separation agreement and release of claims (which may include an agreement not to disparage any member of the Company Group, non-solicit provisions, an agreement to assist in any litigation matters, and other standard terms and conditions) (the "***Release***" and that requirement, the "***Release Requirement***"), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60<sup>th</sup>) day following the Executive's Qualifying Termination (the "***Release Deadline***").

If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, the Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Payment Timing</u>. Any lump sum severance payment under Section 3(a)(i) or 3(b)(i) will be provided on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (the "***Severance Start Date***"), subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below. Any taxable installments of any benefits-related severance benefits that otherwise would have been made to the Executive on or before the Severance Start Date will be paid on the Severance Start Date, and any remaining installments thereafter will be provided as specified in the Agreement. Any restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that accelerate vesting under Section 3 will be settled (x) on a date no later than ten (10) days following the date the

------

Release becomes effective and irrevocable, or (y) if later, in the event of a Qualifying Pre-CIC Termination, on a date no later than the Change in Control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Return of Company Property</u>. The Executive's receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon the Executive's Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive returning all documents and other property provided to the Executive by any member of the Company Group (with the exception of a copy of the Company employee handbook and personnel documents specifically relating to the Executive), developed or obtained by the Executive in connection with his or her employment with the Company Group, or otherwise belonging to the Company Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Resignation of Officer and Director Positions</u>. The Executive's receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon the Executive's Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive resigning from all officer and director positions with all members of the Company Group and the Executive executing any documents the Company may require in connection with the same.

**5Limitation on Payments**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Reduction of Severance Benefits</u>. If any payment or benefit that the Executive would receive from any Company Group member or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the "***Payment***") would (i) constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "***Excise Tax***"), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The "***Best Results Amount***" will be either (x) the full amount of the Payment or (y) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax, results in the Executive's receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted "contingent on a change in ownership or control" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently

------

granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and the Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by any member of the Company Group for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Determination of Excise Tax Liability</u>. Unless the Company and the Executive otherwise agree in writing, the Company will select a professional services firm (the "***Firm***") to make all determinations required under this Section 6, which determinations will be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments for the Firm's services in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to the Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Definitions.** The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)"***Board***" means the Company's Board of Directors.

Simultaneously, founder Eren Bali will transition to a newly created role as Head of Innovation, where he will focus on driving forward the company's product strategy with an emphasis on innovation and artificial intelligence.

We have enormous potential to leverage Udemy's global scale and massive network of content creators to support our customers' evolving needs as their preferred skills development platform for the AI era and beyond."

Following the acquisition, Goldschmied served as CTO of Ceridian, where he led a global team of over 1,200 employees in Research and Development and Product Management functions, driving engineering excellence and innovation that delivered value to thousands of organizations and millions of workers globally. The solution ultimately became Ceridian's flagship platform, and the company rebranded to Dayforce in 2024. Goldschmied was also part

In 2007, Workbrain was acquired by Infor Global Solutions, a global provider of ERP software.
