On September 30, 2026, Pinterest, Inc.’s Board of Directors amended and restated the Pinterest, Inc. Severance and Change in Control Plan for Employees in Level 21 Positions, effective that date and applicable to certain Level 21 employees.

The Plan also provides that performance-based restricted stock units remain subject to applicable award agreements, provides single-trigger acceleration of equity awards only if awards are not assumed, substituted, continued or replaced, and revises “good reason” to include a reduction of more than 10% in a participant’s target annual bonus. The Plan will be filed with the Company’s next Form 10-Q; the report was signed on October 2, 2026 by Wanji Walcott, Chief Legal and Business Affairs Officer and Corporate Secretary.
