Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

In connection with Shravan K. Goli’s and Leah F. Belsky’s previously disclosed transitions to strategic projects roles with Coursera, Inc. (“Coursera”) effective on April 29, 2024, Coursera entered into an offer letter and separation agreement (together, the “Transition Agreement”) with each of Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky on May 3, 2024 and May 5, 2024, respectively.

Under the terms of their respective Transition Agreements, Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky agreed to serve in strategic project roles at Coursera through November 15, 2024 (the “Termination Date”). Subject to their continued employment through the Termination Date, Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky will each continue to (i) receive base salaries at their current annual rate, (ii) participate in Coursera’s health and benefit plans, (iii) vest with respect to outstanding equity awards, and (iv) be eligible to receive a prorated cash bonus payout under Coursera’s Executive Incentive Compensation Plan for the 2024 performance year, but shall not be eligible for participation in any bonus plans for future periods. Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky are no longer participants under Coursera’s Executive Severance Plan. Coursera agreed to pay severance payments of $39,400 and $35,500 (less applicable withholdings), respectively, to Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky, and they each agreed to enter into a customary release of claims in favor of Coursera. The base salaries and outstanding equity awards for Mr. Goli and Ms. Belsky are described in Coursera’s proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2024 in connection with its 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The foregoing description of the Transition Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the Transition Agreements (copies of which Coursera expects to file as exhibits to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2024), which upon filing will be incorporated herein by reference.
