As a result of delays in the filing of the Skillz Inc.'s (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for its 2025 quarterly periods, the Company's 2025 annual long-term equity incentive grants to its employees were delayed. Following the Company's filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and all of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for its 2025 quarterly periods on December 11, 2025, the Company awarded its ordinary course 2025 annual long-term equity incentive grants to its employees on December 19, 2025.

In connection with the 2025 annual long-term equity incentive grants to all employees, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), at the recommendation of a special committee (the "Special Committee") of independent directors of the Board, approved (i) a 2025 annual long-term equity incentive grant to Andrew Paradise, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and controlling stockholder, consisting of (a) restricted stock units ("RSUs") having a grant date fair value of $1.5 million and (b) performance stock units ("PSUs") with a grant date fair value of $1.5 million (collectively, the "2025 LTI Award") and (ii) a special one-time award of performance stock units (the "Special PSUs") with a grant date fair value of $3.0 million (the "Special PSU Award," and together with the 2025 LTI Award, the "CEO Equity Awards") under the Company's 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Omnibus Plan"). Mr. Paradise may earn one share of the Company's Class A common stock for each RSU, PSU and Special PSU that vests under the CEO Equity Awards, as described below. The principal terms of the CEO Equity Awards are summarized below.

In considering the terms of Mr. Paradise's CEO Equity Awards, the Special Committee completed a comprehensive assessment of Mr. Paradise's compensation, including market data prepared by its independent compensation consultant, Mr. Paradise's existing equity compensation, and the Company's competitive pay positioning strategy. In considering the terms of the Special PSU Award, the Special Committee selected challenging stock price milestones (as detailed below) to motivate Mr. Paradise to create significant long-term stockholder value.

The CEO Equity Awards were granted on December 19, 2025 (the "Grant Date") under the Company's Omnibus Plan. The number of RSUs, PSUs and Special PSUs covered by the CEO Equity Awards was calculated using the 90-calendar day volume weighted average price ("VWAP") for the Company's Class A common stock as of December 31, 2024 (such VWAP date being used in order to align with the immediately preceding trading day prior to the beginning of the performance and vesting periods applicable to the CEO Equity Awards). The VWAP methodology used for the CEO Equity Awards was the same methodology used for the Company's ordinary course 2025 annual long-term equity incentive grants for other employees.

The long-term incentive award RSUs will vest in twelve substantially equal installments on each three month anniversary of January 1, 2025, subject to Mr. Paradise's continued service with the Company ("Service"), such that the RSUs will be fully vested after three years of Service following January 1, 2025. As of the date hereof, three installments of the RSUs have vested pursuant to the award.

The long-term incentive award PSUs will have a three-year performance period (the "Performance Period"), beginning on January 1, 2025 and continuing until December 31, 2027. The number of long-term incentive award PSUs earned by Mr. Paradise during each year of the Performance Period will be determined based on the level of achievement of certain Company goals set annually by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") for each of the three years during the Performance Period (the "Performance Goals"). However, the long-term incentive award PSUs will not vest until the end of the Performance Period, subject to (i) the achievement of such Performance Goals during each of the three years during the Performance Period and (ii) Mr. Paradise's continued Service with the Company through the end of the Performance Period. The number of PSUs that may be earned is variable and may range from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs granted, based on the achievement of the Performance Goals. For the first year of the Performance Period, the Compensation Committee established the same Performance Goals for all of the performance stock units to be granted to all executives. The Performance Goals for the first year of the award are Adjusted EBITDA and net gaming revenue.

The Special PSUs are subject to performance-based vesting over a four-year performance period commencing on the Grant Date (the "Special PSU Performance Period") with the number of PSUs earned ranging from 0% to 200% of the number of Special PSUs granted, subject to (i) achievement of stock price milestones ranging from $9.00 to $19.00 and (ii) Mr. Paradise's continued Service through such date. The maximum number of Special PSUs that could be earned is divided into eight equal tranches, with each tranche tied to a stock price milestone, measured using the Company's 30-trading day VWAP and as certified by the Compensation Committee. At the end of the Special PSU Performance Period, a tranche may vest pro-rata using straight-line interpolation; provided that no Special PSUs will vest if the Company's stock price is less than $9.00.

In the event that Mr. Paradise's Service terminates other than by the Company for "Cause" or by Mr. Paradise without "Good Reason" (each as defined in the applicable award agreement), (i) any unvested RSUs will vest in full at his termination of Service, (ii) the Compensation Committee will determine in good faith the extent to which the applicable Performance Goals have been met with respect to the Performance Period, and the PSUs for which Performance Goals have been met will vest on a pro-rated basis, based on

------

the number of days in the Performance Period prior to his termination of Service and (iii) any unvested tranche of Special PSUs shall be eligible for pro-rata vesting, consistent with the treatment described in the paragraph above with respect to vesting at the end of the Special PSU Performance Period. Upon any termination of Service by the Company for "Cause" or by Mr. Paradise without "Good Reason," any unvested RSUs, PSUs and Special PSUs will be forfeited.

If a Change in Control (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) occurs during the Performance Period for the PSUs, the Compensation Committee will determine to what extent the Performance Goals have been achieved with respect to the Performance Period as of the date of such Change in Control and the number of PSUs for which the Performance Goals were achieved will be pro-rated based on the number of days in such Performance Period prior to the date of the Change of Control. The PSUs will cease to be subject to any further performance conditions following a Change in Control and will vest, subject to Mr. Paradise's continued Service, at the end of the Performance Period or, if earlier, Mr. Paradise's termination of Service other than by the Company for "Cause" or by Mr. Paradise without "Good Reason." If a Change of Control (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) occurs during the Special PSU Performance Period, any unvested tranche of the Special PSUs shall be eligible to vest as of the effectiveness of such Change of Control on a pro-rata basis generally consistent with the pro-rata vesting described in the paragraph above with respect to vesting at the end of the Special PSU Performance Period and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement.

The foregoing summary of the terms of the CEO Equity Awards does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the award agreements for the CEO Equity Awards, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto and which are incorporated herein by reference.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Certain annexes and exhibits have been omitted pursuant to Item 601(a)(5) of Regulation S-K. The registrant agrees to furnish supplementally a copy of any omitted achievement to the Securities and Exchange Commission on a confidential basis upon request**

**<u>SKILLZ 2020 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN</u>** 

**<u>CEO LONG-TERM INCENTIVE EQUITY AWARD AGREEMENT</u>**

**THIS CEO LONG-TERM INCENTIVE EQUITY AWARD AGREEMENT** (this "<u>Agreement</u>") is made effective as of December 19, 2025 by and between Skillz Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), and Andrew Paradise (the "<u>Participant</u>"), pursuant to the Skillz Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the "<u>Omnibus Plan</u>"). Capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Omnibus Plan.

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Omnibus Plan in order to grant Awards from time to time to certain key Employees, Directors and Consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; and

WHEREAS, the Participant is an Eligible Recipient as contemplated by the Omnibus Plan, and the Administrator has determined that it is in the interest of the Company to make this grant to the Participant.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Omnibus Plan, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.<u>Grant of Stock Units</u>.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of December 19, 2025 (the "<u>Grant Date</u>"), the Participant will be credited with (i) the number of Restricted Stock Units equal to $1,500,000 divided by the 90-calendar day volume-weighted average price for the Company's Class A Common Stock as of the trading day prior to January 1, 2025 (the "<u>90-day VWAP</u>") and (ii) the number of Performance Stock Units equal to $1,500,000 divided by the 90-day VWAP (collectively, the "<u>Stock Units</u>"). Each Stock Unit is a notional amount that represents the right to receive one (1) Share of Class A Common Stock of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the Omnibus Plan and this Agreement, if and when the Stock Unit vests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.<u>Vesting</u>.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Restricted Stock Units</u>. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in twelve (12) substantially equal installments over three (3) years on each three (3) month anniversary of January 1, 2025, subject to the Participant's continuous service with the Company ("<u>Service</u>"), from the Grant Date through each such subsequent anniversary of the Grant Date, except as provided in Section 4(a).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Performance Stock Units</u>.

&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)The number of Performance Stock Units earned by the Participant during each year of the Performance Period will be determined based on the level

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-1-

------

of achievement of the Company goals set annually by the Company's Compensation Committee (the "<u>Compensation Committee</u>"), as determined by the Compensation Committee (the "<u>Performance Goals</u>") for each of the three years during the Performance Period in accordance with Exhibit I attached hereto, which will be updated by the Company's Compensation Committee for the specific Performance Goals applicable to each year of the Performance Period. All determinations of whether Performance Goals have been achieved, the number of Performance Stock Units earned by the Participant, and all other matters related to this Section 2(a) shall be made by the Company's Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion. For purposes of this award, the "<u>Performance Period</u>" begins on January 1, 2025 and continues until December 31, 2027. The number of Performance Stock Units that may be earned is variable and may range from 0% to a maximum of 200% of the number of Performance Stock Units determined in Section 1 (the "<u>Target Award</u>"), with 100% of the Target Award earned if the Performance Goals are achieved at the target level of performance.

&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)During the first quarter of each year in the Performance Period, the Compensation Committee or the CEO will review and certify in writing (x) whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the previous year have been achieved, (y) the number of Performance Stock Units that the Participant shall earn, if any, in accordance with Exhibit I and subject to compliance with the requirements of Section 2(b)(iii) and (z) the Performance Goals applicable for the current year of the Performance Period applicable for the current year of the Performance Period. Provided however, that no Performance Stock Units will vest until the completion of the full Performance Period. Promptly following completion of the full Performance Period (and no later than ninety (90) days following the end of the Performance Period), the Compensation Committee will review and certify in writing (a) whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance Period have been achieved, and (b) the number of Performance Stock Units that the Participant shall earn, if any, subject to compliance with the requirements this Section 2(c). Such certification shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Participant, and on all other persons, to the maximum extent 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;(iii)The Performance Stock Units are subject to forfeiture until they vest. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Performance Stock Units will vest and become nonforfeitable on the date the Compensation Committee certifies the achievement of the Performance Goals following the completion of the full Performance Period in accordance with Section 2(b)(ii), subject to (i) the achievement of the minimum threshold Performance Goals for payout set forth in Exhibit I attached hereto, and (ii) the Grantee's Continuous Service from the Grant Date through the date that the Performance Stock Units are paid in shares of Common Stock. The number of Performance Stock Units that vest and become payable under

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-2-

------

this Agreement shall be determined by the Compensation Committee based on the level of achievement of the Performance Goals set forth in Exhibit I and shall be rounded to the nearest whole Performance Stock Unit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Performance Stock Units shall vest prior to the date on which a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the Shares has been filed. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Participant incurs a change in status from an Employee to a Director of the Company or an Affiliate before the Performance Stock Units have vested, such change in status alone shall not constitute a termination of Service for purposes of this Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.<u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Unless and until a Stock Unit has vested and the Share underlying it has been distributed to the Participant, the Participant will not be entitled to vote in respect of that Stock Unit or that Share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If the Company declares a cash dividend on its Shares, then, on the payment date of the dividend, the Participant will be credited with dividend equivalents equal to the amount of cash dividend per Share multiplied by the number of Stock Units credited to the Participant through the record date. The dollar amount credited to the Participant under the preceding sentence will be credited to an account established for the Participant (the "<u>Account</u>") for bookkeeping purposes only on the books of the Company. The balance in the Account will be subject to the same terms regarding vesting and forfeiture as the Participant's Stock Units awarded under this Agreement, and will be paid in cash in a single sum at the time that the Shares associated with the Participant's Stock Units are delivered (or forfeited at the time that the Participant's Stock Units are forfeited).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.<u>Termination of Service</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Restricted Stock Units</u>. If the Participant's Service terminates other than by (i) the Company for Cause or (ii) the Participant without Good Reason (each as defined below), any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall vest in full at such termination of Service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Performance Stock Units</u>. If the Participant's Service terminates other than by (i) the Company for Cause or (ii) the Participant without Good Reason (each as defined below), (1) the Compensation Committee will determine in good faith to what extent the Performance Goals have been achieved with respect to the Performance Period as of the date of such termination of Service and the payout of the Target Award and (2) the number of Performance Stock Units for which the Performance Goals were achieved will be pro-rated based on the number of days in the Performance Period prior to the date of the Participant's termination of Service, and such Performance Stock Units will vest at such termination of Service. Any Performance Stock Units for which the Performance Goals were not achieved as of the date of the Participant's termination of Service will be forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-3-

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Any unvested Stock Units shall be forfeited and cancelled automatically upon any termination of the Participant's Service other than as described in Section 4(a) and Section 4(b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Definitions</u>.

&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)"<u>Cause</u>" means the occurrence of one or more of the following with respect to the Participant: (1) a final, non-appealable finding by a court of competent jurisdiction of the Participant's material breach of fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty to the Company; (2) a conviction of or plea of nolo contendere to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (3) the willful failure or refusal to perform and discharge the Participant's duties and responsibilities on behalf of the Company (other than by reason of Disability) or to comply with any lawful directive of the Board or its designee, in each case which continues for ten (10) days after the Board provides written notice specifying in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to be the basis for such failure or refusal; (4) a willful and material breach of a written policy of the Company (including, without limitation, those relating to sexual harassment or the disclosure or misuse of confidential information); (5) a willful and material breach of an agreement with the Company (including, without limitation, any confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation or assignment of inventions agreement); (6) the commission of fraud, theft, embezzlement, self-dealing, misappropriation or other malfeasance against the business of the Company; or (7) the commission of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or gross misconduct in the performance of any aspect of the Participant's lawful duties or responsibilities, which has or may be expected to have a materially and demonstrably adverse effect on the Company. No act or failure to act on the part of the Participant (A) that has occurred prior to the Grant Date shall be deemed to be for Cause or (B) shall be considered "willful" unless it is done or omitted to be done by the Participant in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant's action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon the directive of the Board or advice of counsel to the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant in good faith or in the best interest of the Company. No termination of the Participant's employment by the Company for Cause shall occur unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Participant a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the Board (excluding the Participant, if the Participant is a member of the Board) at a meeting of the Board (after reasonable notice is provided to the Participant and the Participant is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Participant, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, Cause has occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-4-

------

&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)"<u>Good Reason</u>" means the occurrence of one or more of the following without the Participant's written consent, (1) a material reduction by the Company in base salary or target bonus; (2) a material diminution in duties, responsibilities, reporting relationship, or authority of employment; (3) a requirement that the Participant perform his duties from any particular location; or (4) the failure of any successor to the Company to assume and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; *provided*, in each case, that the Participant has given the Company written notice detailing the specific circumstances alleged to constitute Good Reason within thirty (30) calendar days after the first occurrence of such circumstances, and the Company shall have thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of such notice to cure such circumstances in all material respects; and *provided further*, that no termination due to Good Reason shall occur after the ninetieth (90th) calendar day following the first occurrence of any grounds for Good Reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.<u>Change in Control</u>.** If a Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period, (i) the Compensation Committee will determine in good faith to what extent the Performance Goals have been achieved with respect to the Performance Period as of the date of such Change in Control and the payout of the Target Award and (ii) the number of Performance Stock Units for which the Performance Goals were achieved will be pro-rated based on the number of days in the Performance Period prior to the date of the Change in Control. Such Performance Stock Units will cease to be subject to any further performance conditions following the Change in Control and will vest at the end of the Performance Period subject to the Participant's continued Service through the last day of the Performance Period; provided, that such Performance Stock Units will vest if the Participant's Service terminates other than by (i) the Company for Cause or (ii) the Participant without Good Reason. Any Performance Stock Units for which the Performance Goals were not achieved as of the date of the Change in Control will be forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.<u>Timing and Form of Payment</u>**. Once a Stock Unit vests, the Participant will be entitled to receive a Share in its place. Delivery of the Share will be made as soon as administratively feasible following the vesting of the associated Stock Unit and in no event later than March 15<sup>th</sup> of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Stock Unit vests. Shares will be credited to an account established for the benefit of the Participant with the Company's administrative agent. The Participant will have full legal and beneficial ownership of the Shares at that time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.<u>Tax Withholding</u>**. The Company or any Affiliate thereof shall, in accordance with Section 16 of the Omnibus Plan, have the power to withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company or such Affiliate thereof, cash or Shares that are distributable to the Participant with respect to the Stock Units that have vested in an amount sufficient to satisfy the federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements, both domestic and foreign, relating to such transaction, and the Company or such Affiliate thereof may defer payment of cash or issuance of Shares until such requirements are satisfied; provided, however, that such amount may not exceed the maximum statutory withholding rate. The Participant shall be entitled to elect to satisfy the amount of any such required tax withholding by having the Company withhold from the Shares otherwise

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-5-

------

distributable to the Participant with respect to Stock Units that have vested a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such required tax withholdings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.<u>Nontransferability of Stock Units</u>**. The Stock Units granted hereunder may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, pursuant to procedures as the Administrator reasonably shall establish and subject to Section 15(g) for estate planning purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**9.<u>Beneficiary Designation</u>**. The Participant may from time to time name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) by whom any right under the Omnibus Plan and this Agreement is to be exercised in case of his death. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Administrator, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Administrator during his lifetime.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.<u>Adjustments</u>**. Notwithstanding any provision in the Omnibus Plan, including Section 5 of the Omnibus Plan, to the contrary, in the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Agreement, will adjust the number and class of shares subject to the Award.

## Exhibit 10.2

**<u>SKILLZ 2020 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN <br>CEO SPECIAL PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT</u>**

**THIS PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT** (this "*Agreement*") is made effective as of December 19, 2025 by and between Skillz Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "*Company*"), and Andrew Paradise (the "*Participant*"), pursuant to the Skillz Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the "*Plan*"). Capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.

**WHEREAS,** the Company has adopted the Plan in order to grant Awards from time to time to certain key Employees, Directors and Consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; and

**WHEREAS,** the Participant is an Eligible Recipient as contemplated by the Plan, and the Administrator has determined that it is in the interest of the Company to make this grant to the Participant;

**NOW, THEREFORE,** in consideration of the premises and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.Grant of Performance Stock Units.**

As of December 19, 2025 (the "*Grant Date*"), the Participant will be credited with the number of Performance Stock Units equal to $3,000,000 divided by the 90-calendar day volume-weighted average price for the Company's Class A Common Stock as of the trading day prior to January 1, 2025 (the "*Target Award*"). From 0% to a maximum of 200% of the Target Award (the "*Maximum Award*") may be earned based on the achievement of Stock Price Milestones, as set forth below. Each Performance Stock Unit is a notional amount that represents the right to receive one (1) share of Class A Common Stock of the Company (a "*Share*"), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, if and when the Performance Stock Unit vests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.Vesting of Performance Stock Units.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Tranches</u>. The Maximum Award is divided into eight (8) tranches (each a "*Tranche*"), with each Tranche representing the number of Performance Stock Units equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Target Award and having the Stock Price Milestone specified next to the applicable Tranche number in the table below.

------

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Tranche** | **Stock Price Milestone** | **Incremental Percentage of Target Award Earned** | **Cumulative Percentage of Target Award Earned**  |
| 0 | < $9.00 | 0% | 0% |
| 1 | $9.00 | 25% | 25% |
| 2 | $10.33 | 25% | 50% |
| 3 | $11.67 | 25% | 75% |
| 4 | $13.00 | 25% | 100% |
| 5 | $14.50 | 25% | 125% |
| 6 | $16.00 | 25% | 150% |
| 7 | $17.50 | 25% | 175% |
| 8 | $19.00 | 25% | 200% |

---

For example, if the Target Award is 450,000 Performance Stock Units, each Tranche would represent 112,500 Performance Stock Units, and the Maximum Award would be 900,000 Performance Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Vesting</u>.

&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)<u>Vesting During the Performance Period</u>. Each Tranche shall vest if and when during the *Performance Period* the Company's *Stock Price* equals or exceeds the applicable *Stock Price Milestone* (each as defined below), *subject* to the Participant's continuous service with the Company ("*Service*") through such date, except as provided in Section 3, and *subject further* to the Administrator's determination, approval and certification that the requisite vesting conditions for the applicable Tranche have been satisfied (a "*Certification*").

&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)<u>Pro-rata Vesting at the End of the Performance Period</u>. If, on the last day of the Performance Period, the Company's Stock Price is between two Stock Price Milestones, the Tranche associated with the higher Stock Price Milestone shall vest pro-rata using straight-line interpolation, *subject* to the Participant's Service through the end of the Performance Period, except as provided in Section 3, and *subject* to Certification; *provided that* no Performance Stock Units shall vest if the Company's Stock Price is less than $9.00. For example, if the Company's Stock Price is $16.50 on the last day of the Performance Period, one third (1/3) of Tranche 6 would vest (8.33% of the Target Award would vest). Any Performance Stock Units that fail to vest at the end of the Performance Period shall be forfeited and cancelled automatically.

&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)<u>Assessment</u>. During the Performance Period, the Administrator shall regularly assess whether the vesting requirements have been satisfied. The Administrator shall also engage in such assessment reasonably promptly upon the reasonable request of the Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Definitions</u>.

------

&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)The Company's "*Stock Price*" on a particular trading day for purposes of each Stock Price Milestone is equal to the Company's 30-trading day volume weighted average price ("*VWAP*") as of the close of such trading day.

&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)Each "*Stock Price Milestone*" means the Company's Stock Price set forth next to the applicable Tranche shown in the table in Section 2(a).

&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)A "*trading day*" means a day on which the primary stock exchange or national market system on which the Shares trade (e.g., the New York Stock Exchange) is open for trading.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)The "*Performance Period*" means the period from the Grant Date until the fourth (4<sup>th</sup>) anniversary of the Grant Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Adjustments to Stock Price Milestones in the Event of Certain Corporate Transactions</u>. Without limiting Section 5 of the Plan, the Stock Price Milestones will be adjusted in good faith by the Administrator, in consultation with the Participant, equitably and proportionately in a manner designed to preserve the economic opportunity provided under the Performance Stock Units, (1) higher to account for acquisition activity for which stock is provided as consideration; and (2) lower to account for a spin-off, dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities, or other property) or divestiture activity, in each case, that could be considered material to the achievement of the Stock Price Milestones.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.Termination of Service; Change in Control.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Termination of Service</u>.

&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)Any unvested Performance Stock Units shall be forfeited and cancelled automatically upon any termination of the Participant's Service other than as described in Section 3(a)(i).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Change in Control</u>. If a Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period, any unvested Tranche shall vest as of the effective time of such Change in Control in accordance with Section 2(b)(ii) *except that* the Company's Stock Price shall be calculated using the higher of (1) the Company's 30-trading day VWAP as of the close of the trading day immediately prior to the effective time of the Change in Control, and (2) the price per share (plus the per share value of any other consideration) received by the Company's stockholders in the Change in Control (and in the case of share-based consideration, based on the closing price on the trading day immediately prior to the effective time of the Change in Control). Any Tranche that fails to

------

vest as of the effective time of the Change in Control shall be forfeited and cancelled automatically.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Definitions</u>.

No act or failure to act on the part of the Participant (A) that has occurred prior to the Grant Date shall be deemed to be for Cause or (B) shall be considered "willful" unless it is done or omitted to be done by the Participant in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant's action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon the directive of the Board or advice of counsel to the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant in good faith or in the best interest of the Company. No termination of the Participant's employment by the Company for Cause shall occur unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Participant a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the Board (excluding the Participant, if the Participant is a member of the Board) at a meeting of the Board (after reasonable notice is provided to the Participant and the Participant is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Participant, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, Cause has occurred.

------

reporting relationship, or authority of employment; (3) a requirement that the Participant perform his duties from any particular location; or (4) the failure of any successor to the Company to assume and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; *provided*, in each case, that the Participant has given the Company written notice detailing the specific circumstances alleged to constitute Good Reason within thirty (30) calendar days after the first occurrence of such circumstances, and the Company shall have thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of such notice to cure such circumstances in all material respects; and *provided further*, that no termination due to Good Reason shall occur after the ninetieth (90th) calendar day following the first occurrence of any grounds for Good Reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.Timing and Form of Payment.** Once a Performance Stock Unit vests, the Participant will be entitled to receive a Share in its place.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.Nontransferability of Performance Stock Units.** The Performance Stock Units granted hereunder may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, pursuant to procedures as the Administrator reasonably shall establish and subject to Section 13(g), for estate planning purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.Beneficiary Designation.** The Participant may from time to time name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) by whom any right under the Plan and this Agreement is to be exercised in case of his death. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Administrator, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Administrator during his lifetime.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.Adjustments.** Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan, including Section 5 of the Plan, to the contrary, in the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash,

------

shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Agreement, will adjust the number and class of shares subject to the Award.
