Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

The Company’s directors and officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) are only permitted to trade in the Company’s securities pursuant to a prearranged trading plan intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (a “Rule 10b5-1 Plan”). During the three months ended September 30, 2026, one of the Company’s non-employee directors and two of the Company’s officers adopted Rule 10b5-1 Plans, which were entered into during an open trading window in accordance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and Trading Plan Policy.

On August 12, 2026, Brian Armstrong, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company’s board of directors, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan (the “Armstrong Plan”) providing for the potential sale of up to 8,167,446 shares of Class A common stock owned by Mr. Armstrong upon the exercise of vested stock options, so long as the market price of the Class A common stock satisfies certain threshold prices specified in the Armstrong Plan, between an estimated start date of November 16, 2026 and October 22, 2027, or earlier, upon the completion of all transactions subject to the trading arrangements specified in the Armstrong Plan or the occurrence of certain events set forth therein.

On September 4, 2026, Frederick Ernest Ehrsam III, amember of the Company’s board of directors, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan (the “Ehrsam Plan”) providing for the potential sale of up to 3,866,620 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the conversion of shares of Class B common stock owned by The Frederick Ernest Ehrsam III Living Trust, of which Mr. Ehrsam is trustee, so long as the market price of the Class A common stock satisfies certain threshold prices specified in the Ehrsam Plan, between an estimated start date of December 7, 2026 and June 7, 2027, or earlier, upon the completion of all transactions subject to the trading arrangements specified in the Ehrsam Plan or the occurrence of certain events set forth therein.

On September 8, 2026, Emilie Choi, the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan (the “Choi Plan”) providing for the potential sale of up to 1,560,453 shares of Class A common stock (i) owned by Ms. Choi, including upon the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units for shares of Class A common stock and the exercise of vested stock options for shares of Class A common stock and (ii) held by the Starvurst Exempt Trust, of which Ms. Choi’s spouse is a co-trustee, plus an additional undetermined number of shares of Class A common stock to be received by Ms. Choi upon the future grant, vesting, and settlement of restricted stock units for shares of Class A common stock, so long as the market price of the Class A common stock satisfies certain threshold prices specified in the Choi Plan, between an estimated start date of January 4, 2027 and December 31, 2027, or earlier, upon the completion of all transactions subject to the trading arrangements specified in the Choi Plan or the occurrence of certain events set forth therein. The Choi Plan provides for the sale of shares of Class A common stock (i) net of certain shares sold pursuant to Ms. Choi’s prior Rule 10b5-1 Plan dated August 12, 2025 (the “Prior Choi Plan”), (ii) to be received upon the future grant, vesting and settlement of certain restricted stock units, and (iii) to be received upon the future vesting and settlement of certain outstanding restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units, net of any shares withheld or mandatorily sold by the Company to satisfy applicable tax obligations. The number of shares (i) to be sold under the Prior Choi Plan, (ii) to be received by Ms. Choi upon the future grant, vesting, and settlement of restricted stock units for shares of Class A common stock, and (iii) to be withheld or mandatorily sold by the Company, and therefore the exact number of shares to be sold pursuant to the Choi Plan, can only be determined upon the occurrence of future events. For purposes of this disclosure, we have included the maximum aggregate number of shares to be sold without (i) subtracting any shares sold under the Prior Choi Plan, (ii) including any shares to be sold upon the future vesting and settlement of any restricted stock units that have not yet been granted, and (iii) subtracting any shares to be withheld or mandatorily sold by the Company upon future vesting events.
