Appointment of New Director

Effective as of August 18, 2023, Susan W. Muigai was appointed to serve as a member of the board of directors (the “Board”) of Coursera, Inc. (“Coursera”). Ms. Muigai was designated a Class III director and will stand for re-election at Coursera’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2024.

Ms. Muigai currently serves as Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer of TransUnion (NYSE: TRU), a global information and insights company, which she joined in October 2021. Prior to that, Ms. Muigai served in various roles of increasing responsibility at Walmart, Inc. (NYSE: WMT), a multinational retail company, from June 2005 to August 2021, last serving as Senior Vice President People of Walmart International, from March 2020 to August 2021, and as Executive Vice President People/Corporate Affairs of Walmart Canada, from August 2016 to August 2020. Ms. Muigai holds a bachelor of arts in foreign languages from Bishop’s University, a bachelor of laws from the University of Windsor, a master of laws with a specialization in international business law from the University of London, and a master of laws in business law from York University.

Ms. Muigai will receive compensation for her service as a non-employee director as described in Coursera’s Amended and Restated Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, which was filed as Exhibit 10.17 to Coursera’s Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2023 (the “Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy”). Pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, Ms. Muigai will receive an annual cash retainer of $35,000 for service on our Board as well as an annual grant of restricted stock units having an aggregate fair market value equal to $185,000, upon the terms set forth in the Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan. Ms. Muigai will also receive a restricted stock unit award valued at $400,000, which will vest over a three-year period, with one-third (1/3) of the award vesting on August 15, 2024, and the remainder of the award vesting in equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to her continued service as a director of the Company.

In connection with her appointment as a director, Coursera expects to enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Ms. Muigai. Ms. Muigai has no family relationships with any director, executive officer, or person nominated or chosen by Coursera to become a director or executive officer of Coursera.
