Form of Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan of Nextdoor, Inc

Terms defined in the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) shall have the same meanings in this Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (“Notice of Grant”). Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Notice of Grant.

The Participant named below has been granted an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, attached as Annex A (the “RSU Agreement”) under the Plan, as follows:

Expiration Date: The earlier to occur of: (a) the date on which settlement of all vested RSUs granted hereunder occurs and (b) the tenth year following the RSU Grant Date.

Vesting:

For so long as Participant is in Continuous Service through each applicable date, RSUs will vest as follows: (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the RSUs subject to this award on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and (ii) an additional 1/16 of the RSUs thereafter on each subsequent February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 (each, a “Quarterly Vesting Date”).

“Continuous Service” means Participant continues to provide services as an employee, officer, director or consultant to the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company.

Settlement: RSUs shall be settled no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which each Vesting Event occurs. Settlement means the delivery of the Shares vested under an RSU. Settlement of RSUs shall be in Shares. Settlement of vested RSUs shall occur whether or not Participant is in Continuous Service at the time of settlement. No fractional RSUs or rights for fractional Shares shall be created pursuant to this Notice of Grant.

Participant understands that Participant’s employment or consulting relationship with the Company is for an unspecified duration, can be terminated at any time (i.e., is “at-will”) and that nothing in this Notice of Grant, the RSU Agreement or the Plan changes the at-will nature of that relationship. Participant also understands that this Notice of Grant is subject to the terms and conditions of both the RSU Agreement and the Plan, each of which are incorporated herein by reference. Participant has read both the RSU Agreement and the Plan.

Execution and Delivery: This Notice of Grant may be executed and delivered electronically whether via the Company’s intranet or the Internet site of a third party or via email or any other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. By Participant’s acceptance hereof (whether written, electronic or otherwise),

Participant agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, Participant accepts the electronic delivery of any documents the Company, or any third party involved in administering the Plan which the Company may designate, may deliver in connection with this grant (including the Plan, the Notice of Grant, this RSU Agreement, any disclosures provided pursuant to Rule 701, account statements or other communications or information) whether via the Company’s intranet or the internet site of another third party or via email, or other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company.

By Participant’s and the Company’s acceptance hereof (in each case, whether written, electronic or otherwise), Participant and the Company agree that this RSU is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Notice of Grant and the RSU Agreement.

Participant has been granted RSUs subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (“Notice of Grant”) and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein or in the Notice of Grant, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.

1.    No Stockholder Rights. Until such time as Shares are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, Participant shall have no ownership of the Shares allocated to the RSUs and shall have no right to dividends or to vote such Shares. As a condition to the issuance of any Shares in settlement of vested RSUs, Participant agrees to enter into a joinder to be bound by any stockholders’ agreement by and between the Company and its stockholders in force from time to time.

2.    Dividend Equivalents. Dividend equivalents, if any, shall not be credited to Participant in respect of Participant’s RSUs, except as otherwise permitted by the Committee.

3.    No Transfer. The RSUs and any interest therein shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any transferee who receives an interest in the RSU or the underlying Shares upon the death of Participant shall acknowledge in writing that the RSU shall continue to be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 3.

4.    Termination. The RSUs shall terminate on the Expiration Date or earlier as provided in this Section 4. If Participant’s Continuous Service with the Company terminates for any reason, all RSUs for which vesting is no longer possible under the terms of the Notice of Grant and this Agreement shall be forfeited to the Company forthwith, and all rights of Participant to the RSUs shall immediately terminate. In case of any dispute as to whether Termination has occurred, the Committee shall have sole discretion to determine whether Termination has occurred and the effective date of such Termination

5.    Acknowledgement. The Company and Participant agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the Notice of Grant, this Agreement, and the provisions of the Plan (incorporated herein by reference). Participant (i) acknowledges receipt of a copy of each of the foregoing documents, (ii) represents that Participant has carefully read and is familiar with their provisions and (iii) hereby accepts the RSUs subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan and the Notice of Grant.

6.    Limitations on Transfer of Stock. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities laws, Participant shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement except with the Company’s prior written consent and in compliance with the Plan, the Company’s then-current insider trading policy and applicable securities laws. The restrictions on transfer also include a prohibition on any short position, any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” by the RSU holder with respect to the RSU itself as well as any shares issuable upon settlement of the RSU prior to the settlement thereof until the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

7.    Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including the transfer restrictions of Sections 3 and 6, and the transferee shall acknowledge the restrictions in writing. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied.

8.    Withholding of Tax. When the RSUs are vested and/or settled, the fair market value of the Shares shall be treated as income subject to withholding by the Company for income and employment taxes if Participant is or was an employee of the Company. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account and other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in this Plan and legally applicable to the Participant (collectively, “Tax-Related Obligations”). In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Obligations legally payable by Participant from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (i) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to Participant when Participant’s RSUs are settled; (ii) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf and Participant hereby authorizes such sales by this authorization); (iii) Participant’s payment of a cash amount; or (iv) any other arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s insider trading policy and 10b5-1 trading plan policy, if applicable; provided, however, that if Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the method of withholding shall be through a mandatory sale under (ii) above, and as to minimum statutory withholding rates only. Depending on the withholding method, the Company and/or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Obligations by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent in Shares. In the case of withholding in Shares, the Company shall issue the net number of Shares to Participant by deducting the Shares retained for Tax-Related Obligations from the Shares issuable upon vesting. For tax purposes, Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Obligations.

9.    Code Section 409A. For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment will be determined consistent with the rules relating to a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any payments provided under this Agreement in connection with Participant’s termination of employment constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and Participant is deemed at the time of Termination of employment to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then the payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from Participant’s separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of Participant’s death following a separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to Participant including, without limitation, the additional tax for which Participant would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. The first payment thereof will include a catch-up payment covering the amount that would have otherwise been paid during the period between Participant’s termination of employment and the first payment date but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments (if any) will be payable in accordance with their original schedule. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision will be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A. To the extent any payment under this Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

10.    Tax Consequences. Participant acknowledges that there will be tax consequences upon vesting and/or settlement of the RSUs and/or disposition of the Shares, if any, received in connection therewith, and Participant should consult a tax adviser regarding Participant’s tax obligations prior to the settlement or disposition.

11.    Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant (including any written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may request of Participant for compliance with applicable laws) with all applicable foreign and US state and federal laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s capital stock may be listed or quoted at the time of the issuance or transfer. Participant may not be issued any Shares if the issuance would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the capital stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell the shares.

12.    Legend on Certificates. The certificates representing the Shares issued hereunder shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, this Agreement or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such shares of the Company’s Common Stock are listed and any applicable federal or state laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

13.    Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this Agreement will be binding upon Participant and Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

14.    Entire Agreement; Severability. The Plan and the Notice of Grant are incorporated herein by reference. The Plan, the Notice of Grant and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof (including, without limitation, any commitment to make any other form of equity award (such as stock options) that may have been set forth in any employment offer letter or other agreement between the parties). If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, then such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible and the other provisions will remain fully effective and enforceable.

15.    Market Standoff Agreement. Participant agrees that, subject to any early release provisions that apply pro rata to stockholders of the Company according to their holdings of Common Stock (determined on an as-converted into Common Stock basis), Participant will not, for a period of up to one hundred eighty (180) days (plus up to an additional thirty five (35) days to the extent reasonably requested by the Company or such underwriter(s) to accommodate regulatory restrictions on the publication or other distribution of research reports or earnings releases by the Company, including NASD and NYSE rules) following the effective date of the registration statement filed with the SEC relating to the IPO, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock, except for: (i) transfers of Shares permitted under Section 6 hereof so long as such transferee furnishes to the Company and the managing underwriter their written consent to be bound by this Section 15 as a condition precedent to such transfer; and (ii) sales of any securities to be included in the registration statement for the IPO.  For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall only apply

to the IPO.  The restricted period shall in any event terminate two (2) years after the closing date of the IPO.  In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the Shares subject to this Section and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Shares until the end of such period.  Participant further agrees to enter into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to implement the foregoing restrictions on transfer.  For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not apply to any registration of securities of the Company (a) under an employee benefit plan or (b) in a merger, consolidation, business combination or similar transaction.

16.    No Rights as Employee, Director or Consultant. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Participant’s Continuous Service, for any reason, with or without cause.

17.    Information to Participants. If the Company is relying on an exemption from registration under Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act and such information is required to be provided by Section 12(h)-1, the Company shall provide the information described in Rules 701(e)(3), (4) and (5) of the Securities Act by a method allowed under Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act in accordance with Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act, provided, that Participant agrees to keep the information confidential.

18.    Delivery of Documents and Notices. Any document relating to participating in the Plan and/or notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent that this Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt of such notice) upon personal delivery, electronic delivery or deposit in the U.S. Post Office or foreign postal service, by registered or certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at the e-mail address, if any, provided for Participant by the Company or at such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other party.

19.    Choice of Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State. For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other proceedings brought to enforce this Agreement, relating to it, or arising from it, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of San Francisco County, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this grant is made and/or to be performed.
