| A. |  |  | Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we have sent most stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting, including at any adjournments or postponements of the meeting. All stockholders who received a Notice will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Notice. We provided some of our stockholders, including stockholders who have previously requested to receive paper copies of the proxy materials, with paper copies of the proxy materials instead of the Notice. If you received paper copies of the proxy materials, we encourage you to help us save money and reduce the environmental impact of delivering paper proxy materials to stockholders by signing up to receive all of your future proxy materials electronically.

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | How do I vote? (Continued) |
| A. |  |  | Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank If on April 12, 2024 your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You must follow the instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other similar organization for your bank, broker or other stockholder of record to vote your shares per your instructions. Alternatively, many brokers and banks provide the means to grant proxies or otherwise instruct them to vote your shares by telephone and via the Internet, including by providing you with a 16-digit control number via email or on your Notice or your voting instruction form. If your shares are held in an account with a broker, bank or other stockholder of record providing such a service, you may instruct them to vote your shares by telephone (by calling the number provided in the proxy materials) or over the Internet as instructed by your broker, bank or other stockholder of record.

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | What if another matter is properly brought before the meeting? |
| A. |  |  | The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment. This discretionary authority is granted by the execution of the form of proxy. |

| Q. |  |  | How many votes do I have? |
| A. |  |  | On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of April 12, 2024. |

| Q. |  |  | If I am a stockholder of record and I do not vote, or if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions, what happens? |
| A. |  |  | If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote by completing your proxy card, by telephone, through the internet or online at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted. If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “For” the election of all four nominees for director, “For” the ratification of the selection by the Audit Committee of the Board of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024, and “For” the advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with SEC rules. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxyholder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment. This discretionary authority is granted by the execution of the form of proxy. |

| Q. |  |  | If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, what happens? |
| A. |  |  | If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other agent how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other agent may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion. In this regard, under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), brokers, banks and other securities intermediaries that are subject to NYSE rules may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. In this regard, Proposals 1 and 3 are considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules meaning that your broker may not vote your shares on those proposals in the absence of your voting instructions. However, Proposal 2 is considered to be a “routine” matter under NYSE rules meaning that if you do not return voting instructions to your broker by its deadline, your shares may be voted by your broker in its discretion on Proposal 2. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent. |

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | Who is paying for this proxy solicitation? |
| A. |  |  | We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by email, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. |

| Q. |  |  | What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice? |
| A. |  |  | If you receive more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on the Notices to ensure that all of your shares are voted. |

| Q. |  |  | Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy? |
| A. |  |  | Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways: k You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date. k You may grant a subsequent proxy by telephone or through the internet. k You may send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Unity Software Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary at 30 3rd Street, San Francisco, CA 94103. Such notice will be considered timely if it is received at the indicated address by the close of business on the business day one week preceding the date of the Annual Meeting. k You may attend the Annual Meeting and vote online. Simply attending the meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy. Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted. Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank If your shares are held by your broker, bank as a nominee or other agent, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other agent. |

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | When are stockholder proposals and director nominations due for next year’s annual meeting? |
| A. |  |  | With respect to proposals to be included in next year’s proxy materials, your proposal must be submitted in writing by December 19, 2024 to Unity Software Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 30 3rd Street, San Francisco, CA 94103 and comply with all applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). With respect to proposals (including director nominations) not to be included in next year’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, our amended and restated bylaws provide that your proposal must be submitted in writing between February 5, 2025 and March 7, 2025 to Unity Software Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 30 3rd Street, San Francisco, CA 94103 and comply with the requirements in our amended and restated bylaws, provided, however, that if our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is held before May 6, 2025 or after July 5, 2025, then the proposal must be received by us no earlier than 120 days prior to such annual meeting and no later than the later of (i) 90 days prior to the date of such meeting or (ii) if later than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by us. You are advised to review our amended and restated bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals, including director nominations. |

| Q. |  |  | How are votes counted? |
| A. |  |  | Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately count, for the proposal to elect directors, votes “For,” “Withhold” and broker non-votes; with respect to the proposal to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm, votes “For,” “Against” and abstentions; and with respect to the proposal regarding our named executive officer compensation, votes “For,” “Against,” abstentions and broker non-votes. A withhold vote will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1. Abstentions will have the same effect as “Against” votes for Proposal 2 and Proposal 3. Broker non-votes on Proposals 1 and 3 will have no effect and will not be counted towards the vote total. Proposal 2 is considered a “routine” matter, accordingly, if you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent that holds your shares, your broker, bank, or other agent has discretionary authority to vote your shares on Proposal 2. |

8 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | What are “broker non-votes”? |
| A. |  |  | As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give voting instructions to his or her broker, bank or other securities intermediary holding his or her shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules, the broker, bank or other such agent cannot vote the shares. These un-voted shares are counted as “broker non-votes.” Proposals 1 and 3 are considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules and we therefore expect broker non-votes to exist in connection with those proposals. Proposal 2 is a “routine” matter and therefore broker non-votes are not expected to exist in connection with this proposal. As a reminder, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent. |

| Q. |  |  | How many votes are needed to approve each proposal? |
| A. |  |  | Proposal 1: For the election of directors, the four Class I nominees receiving the most “For” votes will be elected. “Withhold” votes and broker non-votes will have no effect. Only votes “For” will affect the outcome. Proposal 2: To ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024, the proposal must receive “For” votes from the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by remote communication at the meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter. If you “Abstain” from voting, it will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. This proposal is considered to be a “routine” matter. Accordingly, if you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent that holds your shares, your broker, bank, or other agent has discretionary authority to vote your shares on this proposal. Proposal 3: Advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers will be considered to be approved if it receives “For” votes from the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by remote communication at the meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter. If you mark your proxy to “Abstain” from voting, it will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. Broker non-votes will have no effect. |

9 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

| Q. |  |  | What is the quorum requirement? |
| A. |  |  | A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote are present by remote communication at the meeting or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 390,738,148 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of 195,369,075 shares must be present by remote communication at the meeting or represented by proxy at the meeting to have a quorum. Abstentions, withhold votes and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, either the chairperson of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by remote communication at the meeting or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another date. |

| Q. |  |  | How can I find out the results of the voting at the annual meeting? |
| A. |  |  | Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the meeting, we intend to file a Form 8‑K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results. |

PROPOSAL 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Our Board is divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, each of which has a three-year term. Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that class and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified.
Our Board presently has twelve members. There are four directors in the class whose term of office expires in 2024. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until the director’s death, resignation or removal. All four of the nominees are current directors and, if elected, will be continuing their roles on the Board. Mr. Kostman and Ms. Lee have not previously been elected by our stockholders. As described below, Mr. Kostman’s candidacy was recommended by ironSource pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as defined below). Ms. Lee’s candidacy was recommended by our then Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Riccitiello. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has evaluated each of our director’s particular experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, and has recommended their respective nominations. In connection with its nomination of the slate of nominees for election at the Annual Meeting, the Board also considered and determined that Mr. Kostman’s service on two other public company boards of directors, including the board of directors of Outbrain Inc., where he serves as the chief executive officer, does not impair his ability to effectively serve on our Board.
Our policy is to strongly encourage directors and nominees for director to attend the Annual Meeting. Each of our then-current directors attended the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present online at the meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors. Accordingly, the four nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the four nominees named below. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by us. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected. Our management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
DIRECTOR NOMINATION ARRANGEMENTS
Mr. Bar-Zeev, Mr. Dovrat and Mr. Kostman were added to our Board pursuant to the agreement governing our acquisition of ironSource Ltd. (“ironSource” and such acquisition, the “ironSource Merger”) in November 2022. The Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 13, 2022, among Unity Software Inc., Ursa Aroma Merger Subsidiary Ltd. and ironSource (the “Merger Agreement”) provided that in connection with the ironSource Merger, we would add three directors to our Board, including the Chief Executive Officer of ironSource and two other then-current board members of ironSource, to be selected by ironSource with our prior consultation. Accordingly, we added Mr. Bar-Zeev, as Chief Executive Officer of ironSource, and Mr. Dovrat and Mr. Kostman, selected by the board of directors of ironSource with our prior consultation, to our Board effective at the closing of the ironSource Merger on November 7, 2022. Following the consummation of the ironSource Merger, ironSource had no further rights to designate individuals to serve on our Board.
BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE
At this time, our Board is led by Mr. Botha, an independent, non-executive Chairman. Our Board maintains the flexibility to determine whether the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separated, based on what it believes is in the best interests of the Company at a given point in time. The Board believes that this flexibility is in the best interest of the Company and that a one-size-fits-all approach to corporate governance, with a mandated independent Chairman, would not result in better governance or oversight. Mr. Botha possesses significant knowledge and experience in our industry and a deep understanding of our strategic objectives, all of which will continue to benefit the Company during the year ahead. The Chairman is empowered to, among other duties and responsibilities, approve agendas and meeting schedules for regular Board meetings, preside over Board meetings, preside over and establish the agendas for meetings of the independent directors, act as liaison between the independent directors and management, approve information sent to the Board, preside over any portions of Board meetings at which the evaluation or compensation of the Chief Executive Officer is presented or discussed and, as appropriate upon request, act as a liaison to stockholders. In addition, it is the responsibility of the Chairman to coordinate between the Board and management with regard to the determination and implementation of responses to any problematic risk management issues. As a result, we believe that the Chairman can help ensure the effective independent functioning of the Board in its oversight responsibilities. The Company believes that separation of the positions of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of the Board in its oversight of the business and affairs of the Company. In addition, the Company believes that having an independent Chairman creates an environment that is more conducive to the Board’s objective evaluation and oversight of management’s performance, increasing management accountability, and improving the ability of the Board to monitor whether management’s actions are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, including with respect to evaluating whether steps management is taking to manage risks are appropriate for the Company.

ROLE OF THE BOARD IN RISK OVERSIGHT
One of the Board’s key functions is informed oversight of our risk management process. Our Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various Board standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for the Company. Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. Our Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, in addition to oversight of the performance of our internal audit function. Our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our cybersecurity risk management processes, including oversight of mitigation of risks from cybersecurity threats. Additionally, our Audit Committee meets on a quarterly basis with our Chief Security Officer about our cybersecurity risk management and strategy, including any significant investigations, and biannually with our Data Privacy Officer about our privacy program. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also monitors our environmental and social impact initiatives. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee (“HCCC”) assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.
MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Board met 7 times during 2023. Each Board member attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of the committees on which they served, held during the portion of the last year for which they were a director or committee member.

As required under applicable NYSE listing standards, in 2023, the Company’s non-management directors met four times in executive sessions at which only non-management directors were present. Mr. Botha, our Lead Independent Director until October 2023 and subsequently our Chairman, presided over the executive sessions.
Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. Our Board has determined that each member of each committee meets the applicable NYSE rules and regulations regarding “independence” and each member is free of any relationship that would impair his or her individual exercise of independent judgment with regard to us. Below is a description of each standing committee of the Board.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that our Board will consist of a majority of independent directors in accordance with applicable NYSE listing standards. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines define an “independent” director consistent with the NYSE definition of independence. Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines and NYSE listing standards, a director is not independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that such director does not have a direct or indirect material relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Members of the Audit Committee and Human Capital and Compensation Committee are subject to the additional independence requirements of applicable SEC rules and NYSE listing standards.
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee undertook its annual review of director independence and made a recommendation to our Board regarding director independence. As a result of this review, our Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Botha, Dr. Campbell, Mr. Dovrat, Mr. Helgason, Mr. Kostman, Ms. Lee, Mr. Schuler, Ms. Sisco, and Ms. Smith are “independent” in accordance with NYSE listing standards applicable to boards of directors in general. In addition, our Board has affirmatively determined that Mr. Botha and Mses. Lee and Sisco are “independent” in accordance with the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules applicable to boards of directors in general and audit committee members in particular, and that that Messrs. Schuler and Dovrat and Ms. Smith are “independent” in accordance with the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules applicable to boards of directors in general and compensation committee members in particular.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

|  |  |  | Our Audit Committee is currently composed of three directors: Mr. Botha, Ms. Lee and Ms. Sisco. The Board has adopted a written Audit Committee Charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at investors.unity.com. The primary purpose of our Audit Committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our Board with respect to our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control and financial statement audits, and to oversee our independent registered public accounting firm. Specific responsibilities of the Audit Committee include: k Helping the Board oversee the Company’s corporate accounting and financial reporting processes; k Managing the selection, engagement, qualifications, independence, and performance of a qualified firm to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements and the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting; k Discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviewing, with management and the independent accountants, the Company’s interim and year end operating results; k Developing procedures for employees to submit concerns anonymously about questionable accounting or audit matters; k Reviewing related party transactions; k Approving or, as permitted, pre-approving, audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm; k Assessing and managing risks pertaining to the financial, accounting, tax, and data privacy and cybersecurity matters of the Company; and k Preparing the Audit Committee report that the SEC requires in the Company’s annual proxy statement.

Our Board reviews the NYSE listing standards definition of independence for Audit Committee members on an annual basis and has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act). With respect to Mr. Botha, the Board considered his service on four public company audit committees (including ours) and determined that such simultaneous service would not impair his ability to effectively serve on our Audit Committee.
Our Board has determined that Ms. Sisco and Mr. Botha are each an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC regulations. Each member of the Audit Committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with applicable requirements. In arriving at these determinations, the Board examined each Audit Committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their employment.

HUMAN CAPITAL AND COMPENSATION PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES
Typically, our Human Capital and Compensation Committee meets quarterly and with greater frequency if necessary. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the Chair of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee, in consultation with our Chief Executive Officer, Chief People Officer, and our legal department. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session. From time to time, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee may invite to its meetings any director, officer or employee of the Company and such other persons as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities. Our Chief Executive Officer may not participate in, or be present during, any deliberations or determinations of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee regarding his compensation or performance. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the compensation and oversight of the work of any consultants or advisers engaged for the purpose of advising the Committee. In particular, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, in its sole discretion, compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive and director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms. Pursuant to its charter, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at the expense of the Company, advice and assistance from compensation consultants and internal and external legal or other advisors and other external resources that the

26 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Human Capital and Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties. When considering matters that bear upon the adviser’s independence, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee will consider factors prescribed by the SEC and NYSE; however, there is no requirement that any adviser be independent.
During the past year, after taking into consideration those factors prescribed by the SEC and NYSE, our Human Capital and Compensation Committee engaged Semler Brossy as compensation consultant to assist in reviewing and updating our compensation peer group to inform decisions, advise on our executive compensation program and pay levels, conduct a review of our equity usage, and advise on other executive compensation-related developments and trends.
Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee typically makes most of the significant adjustments to annual compensation, and determines base salary, bonus and equity awards at one or more meetings held during the first or second quarter of the year. In 2023, our annual compensation review cycle was delayed mainly due to the continued integration with ironSource and organizational and leadership changes. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee also considers matters related to individual compensation, such as compensation for new executive hires, as well as high-level strategic issues, such as the efficacy of our compensation strategy, potential modifications to that strategy and new trends, plans or approaches to compensation, at various meetings throughout the year. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee approves or recommends to the independent members of the Board for determination and approval the compensation and other terms of employment of our Chief Executive Officer and evaluates the Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of relevant Company performance goals and objectives. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviews various materials when making decisions involving executives and directors. These materials include financial reports, operational data, tax and accounting information, and tally sheets outlining potential executive compensation in different scenarios. Additionally, they consider executive and director stock ownership, our stock performance, historical executive compensation levels, current company-wide compensation levels, and recommendations from our compensation consultant. Our independent consultant also provides analyses of compensation levels and practices at other companies.
HUMAN CAPITAL AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
None of the members of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee is currently or has been at any time one of an officer or employee of the Company. None of the Company’s executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last year, as a member of the Board or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board or Human Capital and Compensation Committee.

Mr. Durban also served as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee until October 2023. The Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is Dr. Campbell. Our Board has determined that each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent under the listing standards of the NYSE. Mr. Durban was independent under the listing standards of the NYSE during his time on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Board has adopted a written Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at investors.unity.com. Specific responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include: k Identifying and evaluating candidates, including the nomination of incumbent directors for reelection and nominees recommended by stockholders, to serve on the Board; k Considering and making recommendations to the Board regarding the composition and chairmanship of the committees of the Board; k Developing and making recommendations to our Board regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters; k Overseeing periodic evaluations of the Board’s performance, including committees of the Board; and k Overseeing company practices related to ESG.
| Members k Dr. Campbell (Chair) k Mr. Kostman |  |
| Number of Meetings 4 |  |

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee uses a variety of methods to identify and evaluate director nominees. In its evaluation of director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the current size and composition, organization, and governance of the Board and the needs of the Board and the respective committees of the Board, as well as a candidate’s potential conflicts of interest or other commitments. Some of the qualifications that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers include, without limitation, business experience, diversity, professional background, education, skill and other individual qualities and attributes that contribute to the total mix of viewpoints and experience represented on the Board. Nominees must be of high character and integrity. Members of the Board are expected to prepare for, attend, and participate in all Board and applicable committee meetings. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem, from time to time, are in the Company’s and its stockholders’ best interests.
Although we do not maintain a specific policy with respect to board diversity, the Board believes that the Board should be a diverse body, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers a broad range of backgrounds and experiences. In making determinations regarding nominations of directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may take into account the benefits of diverse viewpoints. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers applicable laws and regulations, such as NYSE listing rules with respect to independence. After completing its review and evaluation of director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board the director nominees for selection.

28 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders so long as such recommendations comply with the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws (including the notification, timeliness, consent, and information requirements set forth therein), and applicable laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder.
STOCKHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our relationship with our stockholders is an important part of our corporate governance program. Engaging with stockholders helps us to understand how they view us, to set goals and expectations for our performance, and to identify emerging issues that may affect our strategies, corporate governance, compensation practices or other aspects of our operations. Our stockholder and investor outreach includes investor road shows, analyst meetings, and investor conferences and meetings. We also communicate with stockholders and other stakeholders through various media, including our annual report and SEC filings, proxy statement, news releases and our website. Our webcasts for quarterly earnings releases are open to all. These webcasts are available in real time and are archived on our website for a period of time.
Interested parties wishing to communicate with non-management members of our Board may do so by writing and mailing the correspondence to Corporate Secretary, Unity Software Inc., 30 3rd Street, San Francisco, CA 94103. Each communication should set forth (i) the name and address of the stockholder, as it appears on our books, and if the shares of our common stock are held by a nominee, the name and address of the beneficial owner of such shares, and (ii) the class and number of shares of our common stock that are owned of record by the record holder and beneficially by the beneficial owner. Our legal department, in consultation with appropriate members of our Board as necessary, will review all incoming communications and, if appropriate, such communications will be forwarded to the appropriate member or members of our Board, or if none are specified, to the Chair of our Board. Communications are distributed to our Board, or to any individual director as appropriate depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communication. The purpose of this screening is to allow our Board to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications (such as advertisements, solicitations and hostile communications). The screening procedures have been approved by a majority of the independent directors. Every effort has been made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by our Board or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner.
CODE OF ETHICS
We have adopted the Unity Software Inc. Global Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all officers, directors and employees. The Global Code of Conduct and Ethics is available on our website at investors.unity.com. If we make any substantive amendments to the Global Code of Conduct and Ethics or grant any waiver from a provision of it to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES
Our Board has documented our governance practices by adopting Corporate Governance Guidelines to assure that the Board will have the necessary authority and practices in place to review and evaluate our business operations as needed and to make decisions that are independent of our management. The guidelines are also intended to align the interests of directors and management with those of our stockholders. The Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth the practices the Board intends to follow with respect to board composition and selection, board meetings and involvement of senior management, Chief Executive Officer performance evaluation and succession planning, and board committees and compensation.

PROPOSAL 2
RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Our Audit Committee has selected Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024 and has further directed that management submit the selection of its independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the annual meeting. Ernst & Young has audited our financial statements since the year ended December 31, 2018. Representatives of Ernst & Young are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
Neither our amended and restated bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of Ernst & Young as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, our Audit Committee is submitting the selection of Ernst & Young to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, our Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, our Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests for us and our stockholders.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
The following table represents aggregate fees billed to the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, by Ernst & Young, the Company’s principal accountant.

| Year Ended (in thousands)
| 2022 ($) | 2023 ($)

All fees described above were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

| PROPOSAL TWO

PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Our Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and permissible non-audit services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young. The policy generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services, tax services and non-prohibited other non-audit services up to specified amounts. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service. The pre-approval of services is delegated to Chairperson of the Audit Committee, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
Our Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of services other than audit services by Ernst & Young is compatible with maintaining the principal accounting firm’s independence.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by remote communication or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the annual meeting will be required to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young.

PROPOSAL 3
ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, our stockholders are entitled to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with SEC rules.
This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. The compensation of our named executive officers subject to the vote is disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the related narrative disclosure contained in this proxy statement. As discussed in those disclosures, we believe that our compensation policies and decisions are focused on pay-for-performance principles and strongly aligned with our stockholders’ interests. Compensation of our named executive officers is designed to enable us to attract and retain talented and experienced executives to lead Unity successfully in a competitive environment.
Accordingly, the Board is asking the stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this proxy statement by casting a non-binding advisory vote “FOR” the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.”
Because the vote is advisory, it is not binding on the Board. Nevertheless, the views expressed by the stockholders, whether through this vote or otherwise, are important to management and the Board and, accordingly, the Board and the Human Capital and Compensation Committee intend to consider the results of this vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements.
Advisory approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by remote communication or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter. Unless the Board decides to modify its policy regarding the frequency of soliciting advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executives, the next scheduled say-on-pay vote will be at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

2.Includes the following plans: our 2009 Stock Plan, 2019 Stock Plan, 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”).
3.Excludes 11,000,000 shares and 3,849,055 shares that were added to our 2020 Plan and 2020 ESPP after December 31, 2023. Our 2020 Plan provides that the total number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan will automatically increase on January 1st of each year in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding year (the “Automatic Increase”), or a lesser number of shares determined by our Board. Our Board delegated authority to administer the 2020 Plan to the Human Capital and Compensation Committee and prior to January 1, 2024, our Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved an increase of 11,000,000 shares of common stock, which is less than would have been added to the share reserve pursuant to the Automatic Increase. The shares added to our 2020 ESPP resulted from the automatic annual increase on January 1, 2024 pursuant to the terms of our 2020 ESPP.
4.In connection with the ironSource Merger, (1) we assumed the ironSource Ltd. 2013 Share Incentive Plan (the “2013 ironSource Plan”) and the ironSource Ltd. 2021 Share Incentive Plan (the “2021 ironSource Plan” and together with the 2013 ironSource Plan, the “ironSource Plans”) and (2) we assumed certain options to purchase ironSource ordinary shares and restricted share units in respect of ironSource ordinary shares that were outstanding under the ironSource Plans immediately prior to the ironSource Merger, and such awards were converted into options to purchase Unity common stock and restricted stock units in respect of shares of Unity common stock, respectively. The “Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders” row above shows aggregated share reserve information for the assumed awards.
In November 2022 we amended and restated the 2021 ironSource Plan and renamed it the Unity Software Inc. ironSource Share Incentive Plan (as so amended, the “2021 Share Incentive Plan”). The 2021 Share Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of up to (i) 1,361,808 shares of our common stock pursuant to options, restricted stock, RSUs, and other stock-based awards to certain employees and consultants, plus (ii) on January 1 of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2023 and ending on January 1, 2030, a number of shares equal to the lesser of (a) 5,603,453 shares, which was 5% of the total number of ordinary shares of ironSource outstanding immediately prior to the ironSource Merger (as multiplied by the exchange ratio defined under the Merger Agreement) and (b) an amount determined by the Board prior to the January 1 increase for the particular year, subject to certain adjustments. The 2021 Share Incentive Plan has not been approved by Unity’s stockholders. In accordance with NYSE rules, eligible employees include those who (i) were not employed by or otherwise providing services to Unity or its affiliates (other than ironSource and its subsidiaries) at or prior to the time of the ironSource Merger and (ii) are employed by us or our affiliates; provided that service solely as a director or payment of director’s service fees will not cause a director to be considered an eligible employee.
We do not intend to grant future awards under the 2013 ironSource Plan; however, it remains in place to govern awards issued and outstanding thereunder.
Please see Part II, Item 8 titled “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, including Note 12, “Stock-Based Compensation” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information regarding our equity compensation plans and awards.
5.Excludes 5,603,453 shares that were added to our 2021 Share Incentive Plan as a result of automatic an annual increase on January 1, 2023, but which have not been registered with the SEC. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved no increase for the 2021 Share Incentive Plan for 2024.
6.The shares of common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, cancelled, reacquired by us prior to vesting, satisfied without the issuance of stock, expire or are otherwise terminated, other than by exercise, under our (i) 2020 Plan, 2009 Stock Plan and 2019 Stock Plan or (ii) 2021 Share Incentive Plan or 2013 ironSource Plan will be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under our 2020 Plan and 2021 Share Incentive Plan, respectively.

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The important features of our executive compensation program include the following:

What We Do |  | Our executive bonuses are dependent on meeting corporate objectives. k Our annual performance-based bonus opportunities for all of our Named Executive Officers are dependent upon achievement of annual corporate objectives established each year, for 2023, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and the individual officer’s contributions towards such corporate objectives. |
| We emphasize long-term equity incentives. k Equity awards are an integral part of our executive compensation program, and comprise the primary “at-risk” portion of our Named Executive Officer compensation packages. k We grant equity awards in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options. These awards strongly align our executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders by providing a continuing financial incentive to maximize long-term value. RSUs are also designed to ensure the durability of the business by encouraging our executive officers to remain in our long-term employ. |
| We consider market data based on our peer group when determining compensation. k Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee has retained an independent third-party consultant for guidance in making compensation decisions. |
| Our executive officers and directors are subject to stock ownership guidelines. k Beginning after a phase-in period which runs five years from our initial public offering, or five years from the date of appointment in the case of executive officers or directors who were appointed after our initial public offering, non-CEO executive officers must hold a number of shares equal to the lesser of 3x their base salary or 8,533 shares. The CEO must hold a number of shares equal to the lesser of 5x his base salary or 46,154 shares. Non-employee directors must hold a number of shares equal to $400,000 or 3,846 shares. |

OBJECTIVES, PHILOSOPHY AND ELEMENTS OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Our compensation program aims to achieve the following main objectives:
k Attract, retain and reward highly qualified executives;
k Provide incentives that motivate and reward for achievement of our key performance goals that increase stockholder value over the long term;
k Align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders; and
k Link pay to Company’s performance.
Our executive compensation program generally consists of, and is intended to strike a balance among, the following three principal components: base salary, annual performance-based bonuses, and long-term incentive compensation. We also offer all of our executive officers the benefits available to all our employees, including comprehensive health, retirement, and time off benefits. We also offer mental health, family forming, and commuter benefits to all U.S. employees. The following chart summarizes the three main elements of compensation for 2023, their objectives, and key features:

43 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Element of Compensation | Proportion of 2023 Target Total Direct NEO Pay (Average)1 | Objectives | Key Features
Base Salary (fixed cash) | 4% | Provides financial stability and security through a fixed amount of cash for performing job responsibilities. | Generally reviewed annually and determined based on a number of factors including individual performance, market data, scope and complexity of the role, and internal equity.
Performance Bonus (at-risk cash) | 3% | Rewards for attaining key annual corporate performance goals and individual contributions that relate to our key business objectives. | Target bonus amounts are generally reviewed annually and determined based upon positions that have similar impact on the organization and competitive bonus payouts in our market. Bonus opportunities are dependent upon achievement of specific corporate performance objectives, namely revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(2), consistent with our long-term strategic plan and individual performance objectives. Plans and objectives relate to the officer’s role and expected contribution toward reaching our corporate goals (as determined by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee and communicated at the beginning of the year). Actual bonus amounts earned are determined after the end of the year.
Long-Term Incentive (at-risk equity) | 93% | Rewards for long-term Company performance; aligns executives’ interests with stockholder interests and changes in stockholder value. Attracts and retains highly qualified executives and encourages their continued employment over the long term. | Equity opportunities are generally reviewed and addressed annually. Equity is typically granted for new hires, promotions, or other special circumstances, such as to encourage retention, or as a reward for significant achievement. Individual awards are determined based on a number of factors, including current corporate and individual role, potential and performance, market data, the value of unvested equity awards, and internal compensation considerations.

1. Approximate target averages, as discussed below. Excludes Mr. Whitehurst, who was appointed as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer in October 2023 and did not participate in our 2023 bonus program, Mr. Riccitiello, who terminated employment in October 2023 and was not granted any RSUs or options in 2023, and Mr. Bar-Zeev, whose compensation was negotiated in connection with the ironSource merger and who did not participate in our 2023 bonus program. The target average shown for performance bonus represents the average 2023 target bonus opportunity for each applicable NEO, and the target average shown for long-term incentives represents the average of the aggregate target long-term incentive value of the equity awards granted to each applicable NEO in 2023, in each case, as a percentage of target total direct compensation.
2. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding benefits or expenses associated with stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation, acquisitions, restructurings and reorganizations, insurance reimbursement for legal expenses, interest, income tax, and other non-operating activities, which primarily consist of foreign exchange rate gains or losses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.
We focus on providing a competitive compensation package to our executive officers which provides significant short and long-term incentives for the achievement of measurable corporate objectives. We believe that this approach provides an appropriate blend of short-term and long-term incentives to maximize stockholder value.
We do not have any formal policies for allocating compensation among (i) salary, performance bonus awards and equity grants, (ii) short-term and long-term compensation or (iii) among cash and non-cash compensation. Instead, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee uses its judgment to establish a total compensation program for each executive

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

officer that is a mix of current, short-term and long-term incentive compensation, and cash and non-cash compensation that it believes appropriate to achieve the goals of our executive compensation program and our corporate objectives. However, historically we have structured a significant portion of each Named Executive Officer’s total target compensation so that it consists of performance-based bonus opportunities and long-term equity awards, in order to align their incentives with the interests of our stockholders and our corporate goals.
HOW WE DETERMINE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Role of our Human Capital and Compensation Committee, Management and the Board
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board and has responsibilities related to the compensation of the Company’s directors, officers, and employees and the development and administration of the Company’s compensation plans. For details on the Human Capital and Compensation Committee’s oversight of the executive compensation program, see the section titled “Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors —Human Capital and Compensation Committee”. Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee consists solely of independent members of the Board.
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviews all compensation paid to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers. The Chief Executive Officer evaluates and provides to the Human Capital and Compensation Committee performance assessments and compensation recommendations. While the Chief Executive Officer discusses his recommendations for the other executive officers (excluding himself) with the Human Capital and Compensation Committee, he does not participate in the deliberations concerning, or the determination of, his own compensation. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee discusses and makes final determinations with respect to executive compensation matters without the Chief Executive Officer present during discussions of the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation. From time to time, various other members of management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee to make presentations, provide financial or other background information or advice or otherwise participate in the Human Capital and Compensation Committee meetings.
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee meets periodically throughout the year to manage and evaluate our executive compensation program, and generally determines the principal components of compensation (base salary, performance bonus and equity awards) for our executive officers on an annual basis; however, decisions may occur at other times for new hires, promotions or other special circumstances as our Human Capital and Compensation Committee determines appropriate. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee does not delegate authority to approve executive officer compensation. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee does not maintain a formal policy regarding the timing of equity awards to our executive officers. Instead, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee has historically followed the practice of reviewing and approving executive officer compensation in the spring of each fiscal year.
Role of our Compensation Consultant
In carrying out its responsibilities, our Human Capital and Compensation Committee retains and seeks the advice of a compensation consultant independent of management. In 2023, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee retained Semler Brossy to advise on our executive compensation program and peer group used to inform executive pay decisions, review our equity usage, and report on other executive compensation-related developments and trends.
Semler Brossy does not provide services to the Company, other than executive compensation advice and general advice on equity spend and usage to the Human Capital and Compensation Committee. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee has reviewed the independence of Semler Brossy and determined that this engagement does not raise any conflicts of interest.

45 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Role of our Compensation Peer Group
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee engaged Semler Brossy to assist in the review of the compensation peer group for purposes of evaluating executive officer compensation in 2023.
The peer group companies were selected using the following criteria:
k Publicly traded companies with a focus on applications software, systems software, interactive home entertainment, and internet services and infrastructure.
k Companies within a reasonable range of our size, defined as one-third to three times our revenue and market capitalization.
k High-growth companies defined as having revenue growth greater than or equal to 15%.
k Companies that share similar talent, operational, and/or business characteristics.
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviewed and discussed the criteria above and agreed to make no changes to our compensation peer group for 2023. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee felt the same group remained relevant and provided a robust and stable set of market comparisons. The following companies represent the peer group we used in assessing compensation competitiveness for 2023:

Alteryx | Dropbox | Snowflake
ANSYS | Elastic N.V. | Splunk
Atlassian | Electronic Arts | The Trade Desk
Autodesk | MongoDB | Twilio
Datadog | Okta | UiPath
DocuSign | Roblox |

Market comparisons are determined by use of compensation data obtained from publicly available proxy statements and proprietary survey data from Radford using industry and revenue ranges that are comparable to Unity. While we do not establish compensation levels solely based on a review of competitive data, we believe market data is a meaningful input to our compensation policies and practices in order to attract and retain qualified executive officers. When making its compensation decisions, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee also considers a number of other factors, including company performance, each executive’s impact and criticality to our strategy and mission, relative scope of responsibility and potential, individual performance and demonstrated leadership, and internal pay equity considerations.
FACTORS USED IN DETERMINING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee sets the compensation of our executive officers at levels they determine to be competitive and appropriate, using their professional experience and judgment. Initial pay recommendations are informed by a methodical review of market and performance, including reference to executive benchmarks. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee believes that executive pay decisions require consideration of a multitude of relevant factors which may vary from year to year. In addition, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee may consider stockholder feedback, including the advisory votes on executive compensation. For example, in response to the advisory vote on executive compensation in 2022, our Human Capital and Compensation Committee enhanced the annual bonus process to include a specific Business Unit component. In response to last year’s advisory vote on executive compensation, we began planning for a shareholder outreach program and began to evaluate alternatives to time-based vesting. In addition, we adopted a clawback policy in 2023 after finalization of the NYSE’s

46 à Unity Software à 2024 Proxy Statement

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

listing standards for clawback policies. In making executive compensation decisions, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee generally takes into consideration the factors listed below.
k Company performance and existing and anticipated business needs
k Each executive officer’s individual performance, scope of job function and the critical skill set of each to the Company’s future performance
k The need to attract new talent to our executive team and retain existing talent in a highly competitive industry and in a highly specialized field, RT3D
k A range of market data reference points, as described above under “How We Determine Executive Compensation”
k The role of appropriate succession planning for key positions
2023 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM
Base Salary
In 2023, our merit compensation cycle was delayed mainly due to the continued integration with ironSource and organizational and leadership changes. As a result, base salaries for our NEOs remained at 2022 levels for almost all of 2023. In November 2023, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviewed the base salaries of our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers (except for Messrs. Whitehurst, Riccitiello and Downie), which took effect in December. Salary increases for Mr. Visoso, Ms. Carpenter, Ms. Gupta and Mr. Whitten were intended to reflect the relative impact of their roles and demonstrated contributions, with slightly larger increases for Messrs. Visoso and Whitten due to the larger scope of their roles. Base salaries for 2023 and the percentage increases from 2022 base salaries are shown below.

Executive | 2023 Base Salary ($) | Percentage Increase in Base Salary from 2022 Base Salary (%) |
James M. Whitehurst(1) | 1,120,000 | — |  |
Luis Visoso | 400,000 | 8.8 |  |
Carol Carpenter | 380,000 | 8.6 |  |
Anirma Gupta | 380,000 | 8.6 |  |
Marc Whitten | 400,000 | 8.8 |  |
John Riccitiello(2) | 380,000 | — |  |
Tomer Bar-Zeev(3) | 830,865 | — |  |
Clive Downie(4) | 351,900 | — |  |

1. Mr. Whitehurst commenced employment in October 2023, and therefore did not receive a base salary increase. His base salary is shown on an annualized basis.
2. Mr. Riccitiello retired as our President and Chief Executive Officer in October 2023, and therefore did not receive a base salary increase.
3. Mr. Bar-Zeev did not receive a salary increase because his base salary was high relative to the base salaries paid to similarly situated executives at our peers and the base salaries paid to our other executives as a result of different historical pay practices between Unity and ironSource, pre-merger.
4. Mr. Downie did not receive a salary increase in 2023 because his role change was a lateral move and instead he received only equity grants (discussed below).
Cash Incentive Bonus Plan
Our Cash Incentive Bonus Plan was initially adopted in 2020, shortly before we became a public company. In 2023 most of our executive officers were eligible to participate in the plan (other than Messrs. Whitehurst and Bar-Zeev, described further below), as were a select group of other employees whose eligibility was dependent on both level and location. To receive a payment, a participant must be employed by us on the date the bonus is paid.
We review the practices of our peer group and the broader technology market on an annual basis to ensure that target cash compensation (i.e., base salary and cash bonus) remains competitive. For 2023 the targets for each Named Executive Officer (other than Mr. Whitehurst, who was not eligible to participate in the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan for 2023 and Mr. Bar-Zeev, who did not participate in the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan as his bonus (if any) was governed by his employment agreement), as a percentage of base salary, were as follows: 100% for Mr. Whitten and Mr. Visoso (increased for each from 75% in 2022 to reflect the relatively wide scope of their roles); 75% for Ms. Carpenter, Ms. Gupta, and Mr. Downie; and 100% for Mr. Riccitiello. Mr. Bar-Zeev’s bonus target was 67% of his base salary per his employment agreement. In each case, base salary refers to the base salary earned by the executive during 2023.
Our Cash Incentive Bonus Plan is based 50% on Company performance and 50% on individual performance for those that are aligned to a Corporate function and is based 20% on Company performance, 40% on Business Unit performance and 40% on individual performance for those that are aligned to a Business Unit. Company performance metrics are reviewed each year to ensure alignment with Unity’s annual goals. In 2023, the HCCC chose the Company performance metrics to be revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 1. These metrics were designed to incentivize a balance of top-line and bottom-line performance.
__________
1 We have defined Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss excluding benefits or expenses associated with stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation, acquisitions, restructurings and reorganizations, insurance reimbursement for legal expenses, interest, income tax, and other non-operating activities, which primarily consist of foreign exchange rate gains or losses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.
For 2023, both Company performance and Business Unit performance was determined using a payout matrix based on the 2023 performance metrics: revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Both the Company and Business Unit payout percent can range from 0% to 200%. Despite a year of progress on certain fronts, such as the ironSource integration, the Company's and Business Unit’s performance fell short of expectations set at the beginning of the year, resulting in a zero payout for the Company and Business Unit performance portion of the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan.
The remaining 50% or 40% of the bonus opportunity for Company and Business Unit aligned plans, respectively, is based on individual performance. At-target level individual performance would result in an individual performance factor of 100%, and performance that exceeds target would result in a maximum individual performance factor of 135%. Partial or poor performance would result in individual performance factors of 30% or 0%, respectively. Individual performance is based on executive achievement and company culture, values and purpose goals.
For 2023, Messrs. Riccitiello and Visoso and Mses. Carpenter and Gupta were aligned to a Corporate function, and Messrs. Whitten and Downie were aligned to a Business Unit. For Named Executive Officers aligned to a Corporate function, actual amounts to be paid under the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan would be calculated by multiplying each Named Executive Officer’s target bonus (which is reflected as a percentage of base salary) by the weighted combined achievement factor, which is weighted 50% on the Company performance factor and 50% on the individual performance factor. For Named Executive Officers aligned to a Business Unit, actual amounts to be paid under the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan would be calculated by multiplying each Named Executive Officer’s target bonus (which is reflected as a percentage of base salary) by the weighted combined achievement factor, which is weighted 20% on the Company performance factor, 40% on the Business Unit performance factor and 40% on the individual performance factor, described above. Individual performance factors are determined based on an internal review of impact, culture, and growth (Unity’s “ICG” performance framework, which encompass execution/delivery, values/principles, and personal and role development, respectively).
Cash Incentive Bonus Plan - Ranges
For 2023, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee used the below Corporate Bonus Attainment matrix in determining executive bonuses under the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan.
For 2023, the Company performance factor was 0%. During the fourth quarter of 2023, Unity and Wētā FX mutually agreed to terminate Unity’s service agreement and entered into a perpetual license agreement for Wētā FX’s internal use of Unity's Wētā tools. This transaction resulted in $99 million of incremental revenue, including the release of Wētā FX’s deferred revenue. Excluding this transaction, revenue was $2,088 million. Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 16.6%.
Similarly, the Business Unit performance was also 0% as both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin goals across the Create and Grow businesses were not met.
Despite the significant individual efforts of our Named Executive Officers toward their individual performance goals that might have otherwise resulted in a partial payout of 2023 bonuses, the management team recommended that no bonuses should be paid to our Named Executive Officers who were then serving as executive officers in light of the failure to achieve the Company performance goals for 2023 and the resulting 0% Company performance factor. Consistent with such recommendation, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee ultimately determined to exercise negative discretion and provide for a zero-dollar payout to our Named Executive Officers under the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan with respect to 2023 (other than for Mr. Bar-Zeev and Mr. Downie, as described below), and therefore did not make determinations with respect to individual performance and achievement with respect to the company culture, values and purpose goals. For 2024, we have removed the individual performance factor such that if the Company performance threshold is not met, then the total payout will be zero.
Cash Incentive Bonus Plan - Target and Actual Bonus Earned

Executive | Target (% of salary) | Target ($) | Combined Achievement | Actual Earned ($)
James M. Whitehurst(1) | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A
Luis Visoso(2) | 100% | 370,260 | —% | —
Carol Carpenter(2) | 75% | 264,411 | —% | —
Anirma Gupta(2) | 75% | 264,411 | —% | —
Marc Whitten(2) | 100% | 370,260 | —% | —
John Riccitiello(3) | 100% | 380,000 | —% | —
Tomer Bar-Zeev(4) | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A
Clive Downie(5) | 75% | 263,925 | 40.0% | 105,570

1. Mr. Whitehurst was not eligible for the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan for 2023.
2. As noted above, consistent with management’s recommendation, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee exercised discretion and concluded that a zero-dollar payout was appropriate for 2023 given the Company’s performance.
3. Mr. Riccitiello retired as President and Chief Executive Officer in October 2023, and therefore earned no bonus for 2023.
4. Mr. Bar-Zeev did not participate in our Cash Incentive Bonus Plan. Pursuant to his separation agreement entered into in January 2024, he received as part of his severance an amount equal to his 2023 target bonus ($553,910, or 8 months of his base salary). For additional detail regarding Mr. Bar-Zeev’s compensation, please see the heading below titled, “Agreements With our Named Executive Officers—Agreements with Tomer Bar-Zeev.”
5. Mr. Downie was awarded a bonus because his individual component was deemed earned at 100%, and because he did not serve as an executive officer for the full year, management did not recommend a 0% payout for him unlike the other Named Executive Officers who did serve for the full year.
Equity Awards
Equity design and competitive market practices are reviewed annually. We look at competitive equity values among our executive peer group and the broader technology market to arrive at target equity levels. We grant equity compensation to our executive officers in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options, which have longer vesting periods than cash compensation, allowing these awards to serve as an effective retention tool for our executive officers while focusing their attention on delivering long-term growth to our stockholders. The HCCC believes that it is appropriate for the majority of compensation for our executive officers to consist of equity incentive awards, as such awards promote retention and align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders.
In 2023, with respect to their annual grants, our Named Executive Officers (other than Messrs. Whitehurst, Riccitiello, Bar-Zeev and Downie) were granted 75% of the total intended long-term incentive value in the form of RSUs and the remaining 25% in the form of stock options and the conversion of target values into shares is generally determined using the 60-day trading average of our stock price. The actual ratios based on the grant date fair values differ slightly due to the volatility of our stock price. The target long-term incentive value for Messrs. Visoso and Whitten was $8 million each, reflecting their strong performance, expected future performance and market comparisons. The target long-term incentive value for Mses. Carpenter and Gupta was $4 million each, reflecting their strong performance. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Bar-Zeev was entitled to an annual grant with a target value of at least $4 million, but the target long-term incentive value was $8 million to keep his amount in line with his prior grants and with the annual grants made to Messrs. Visoso and Whitten. The intended value of Mr. Bar-Zeev’s annual grant was granted 75% in the form of RSUs and 25% in the form of stock options.
Our other Named Executive Officers did not receive any regular annual equity grants in 2023. Mr. Whitehurst received RSUs in connection with his appointment as interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Riccitiello did not receive any annual grant due to his retirement in October 2023. Mr. Downie received equity grants in connection with his commencement of a new role in May 2023.
In addition to the annual grants, Messrs. Visoso and Whitten also received a one-time retention grant intended to reflect their contributions to the Company through a significant reorganization and increased scope of responsibility. The intended target value for each grant was $7 million, all in RSUs.
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee believes that equity compensation remains a key tool in serving to align the interests of our executive officers and our stockholders over the long term, and the weighting maintains positive levels of stock ownership in the executive leadership team while balancing the need to manage dilution and unvested hold in times of uncertainty.
The annual equity grants to our Named Executive Officers have been evaluated, established, and approved by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee evaluates the grants in the context of each Named Executive Officer’s total compensation and takes into account the market data provided by compensation consultants in addition to the individual officer’s responsibilities and performance. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee also takes into account the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer with respect to appropriate grants and any particular individual circumstances. Annual equity grants to executives are typically granted in the first or second quarter of our fiscal year. However, in 2023, due to changes in our internal compensation cycle and review, the annual equity grants to executives were granted in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Stock Options
Consistent with the foregoing, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved, the following stock option grants to our Named Executive Officers in 2023. Except as described below, the shares subject to the options vest 25% each year in May 2024, May 2025, May 2026 and May 2027.

2. Mr. Riccitiello did not receive any stock option grants due to his termination of employment in October 2023.
3. Per his employment agreement, Mr. Bar-Zeev was entitled to an annual equity award valued at $4,000,000, but the target long-term incentive value for 2023 was $8 million in the aggregate to keep his amount in line with his prior grants and with the annual grants made to Messrs. Visoso and Whitten. The intended value of Mr. Bar-Zeev’s annual grant was granted 75% in the form of RSUs and 25% in the form of stock options. For additional detail regarding Mr. Bar-Zeev’s compensation, please see the heading below titled, “Agreements With our Named Executive Officers—Agreements with Tomer Bar-Zeev.”

Tomer Bar-Zeev(4) | 11/27/2023 | 198,873
Clive Downie(5) | 6/5/2023 | 115,979

1.In October 2023, Mr. Whitehurst received RSUs in connection with his appointment as interim Chief Executive Officer. The RSUs vested 50% on February 25, 2024 (“Tranche 1”) and the remaining 50% will vest on May 25, 2024 (“Tranche 2”). If the Company’s permanent Chief Executive Officer is appointed prior to May 25, 2024, both Tranche 1 (to the extent not previously vested) and Tranche 2 will vest on the permanent CEO’s start date and settle on the next regular quarterly installment date thereafter. If Mr. Whitehurst’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason, other than by his voluntary resignation or a termination by the Company for Cause (as defined in his offer letter), prior to May 25, 2024, both Tranche 1 (to the extent not previously vested) and Tranche 2 will vest on the date of such termination and settle on the next regular quarterly installment date thereafter. Mr. Whitehurst will not be entitled to any future vesting if, prior to May 25, 2024, he (i) voluntarily resigns from his position as Interim Chief Executive Officer or (ii) is terminated for Cause.
2.Mr. Visoso and Mr. Whitten each received two separate RSU grants: (i) 232,018 RSUs which vest at a rate of 6.25% each quarter for four years, representing a one-time retention grant in recognition of their contributions to the Company through a significant reorganization and increased scope of responsibility and (ii) 198,873 RSUs which vest at a rate of 25% in May 2024, May 2025, May 2026 and May 2027, representing their annual refresh grant. Each grant’s vesting is subject to his employment with the Company.
3.Mr. Riccitiello did not receive any RSUs due to his retirement as Chief Executive Officer in October 2023.
4.Per his employment agreement, Mr. Bar-Zeev was entitled to an annual equity award valued at $4,000,000, but the target long-term incentive value for 2023 was $8 million in the aggregate to keep his amount in line with his prior grants and with the annual grants made to Messrs. Visoso and Whitten. The intended value of Mr. Bar-Zeev’s annual grant was granted 75% in the form of RSUs and 25% in the form of stock options. For additional detail regarding Mr. Bar-Zeev’s compensation, please see the heading below titled, “Agreements With our Named Executive Officers—Agreements with Tomer Bar-Zeev.”
5.This RSU grant was made to Mr. Downie in connection with his commencement of a new role in May 2023 and vested at a rate of 6.25% each quarter for four years, subject to his continued employment with the Company. As described above, Mr. Downie’s employment with the Company terminated in February 2024 and the unvested portion of this award was forfeited.
2022 Price Vested Units (PVUs)
In October 2022, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved one-time Price Vested Unit (PVU) grants, which are performance-based RSUs, to Mr. Visoso, Mr. Whitten, and Ms. Carpenter. The grants to Mr. Visoso and Mr. Whitten were designed to reflect the increased scope and impact of each individual's role as a result of the merger, as well as the importance of leadership continuity necessary to achieve a successful integration of the two companies, and the grant to Ms. Carpenter was because execution of the marketing and communication strategy for Unity’s newly formed combined organization with ironSource was deemed to be vital to our future success.
The PVUs vest based on both the Named Executive Officer’s continued employment with the Company and to the extent that specified stock price hurdles are achieved during a seven-year performance period. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee, in partnership with our compensation consultant Semler Brossy, designed the PVUs to reinforce the link between stockholder value creation and financial reward of Unity’s executives. PVUs were the preferred equity vehicle for a number of reasons, namely the ability to prevent vesting until stockholder value has been realized. The PVUs vest on a double-trigger basis, which means that for any value to be realized the executive must remain employed by Unity at the time both the continued service requirement and price hurdle are achieved. As of December 31, 2023, the first price hurdle had not been met and the first tranche of PVUs had not yet paid out.
2023 CEO Compensation
Mr. Riccitiello retired as our Chief Executive Officer in October 2023. He did not receive an equity grant or cash bonus for 2023. Mr. Whitehurst was appointed as our Interim Chief Executive Officer in October 2023 and entered into a letter agreement (the “Offer Letter”) with the Company, providing for an annual base salary of $1,120,000 and an award of 200,000 restricted stock units (discussed above). For additional detail regarding the Offer Letter, please see the heading below titled, “Agreements With our Named Executive Officers—Offer Letter with James Whitehurst.”
Other Benefits
Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, group life, disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as all of our other employees. All of our U.S.-based full time employees, including our U.S.-based Named Executive Officers, are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan, as discussed in the section below entitled “Description of Compensation Arrangements – 401(k) Plan.” We do not generally provide other retirement benefits or other perquisites or personal benefits to our Named Executive Officers; however, in 2023, we paid $48,000 in car payments to Mr. Bar-Zeev pursuant to his employment agreement. We do, however, pay the premiums for term life insurance and disability insurance for all of our employees, including our Named Executive Officers.
Employee 401(k) Plan
U.S. full-time employees qualify for participation in our 401(k) plan, which is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified defined contribution plan under the Code. Our 401(k) plan provides for a safe harbor employer matching contribution equal to 100% of the first three percent of eligible compensation and 50% of the next two percent of eligible compensation contributed to the plan by an employee.
OTHER FEATURES OF OUR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM
Tax and Accounting Implications
Under Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“ASC 718”), we are required to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the vesting period of the award. We record share-based compensation expense on an ongoing basis according to ASC 718.
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) limits the amount that we may deduct from our U.S. federal taxable income for compensation paid to persons who are “covered employees” to $1 million per covered employee, per year. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted in December 2017 (the “Tax Act”), made certain changes to Section 162(m). Under the prior law, compensation that qualified as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) was an exception to this limitation. Pursuant to the Tax Act, this exception for “performance-based compensation” was repealed with respect to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, except for certain transition relief for remuneration provided pursuant to a written, binding contract that was in effect on November 2, 2017.
As a result, compensation paid to our covered employees in excess of $1 million per year generally will not be deductible unless, among other requirements, it qualifies for the transition relief provided by the Tax Act. Because of uncertainties as to the application and interpretation of Section 162(m), no assurance can be given that any compensation paid by us will be deductible.

Clawback Policy
As a public company, if we are required to restate our financial results due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws as a result of misconduct, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer may be legally required to reimburse our Company for any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation they receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We have adopted a clawback policy that complies with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as required by the SEC, and with Section 10D of the Exchange Act, Rule 10D-1 promulgated thereunder and Section 303A.14 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Our clawback policy applies to each of our executive officers including our principal accounting officer, and requires each of them to reimburse us for any bonus or other incentive-based compensation they received as the result of an accounting restatement.
Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policies
Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits directors, officers and other employees from engaging in derivatives securities or hedging transactions, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, or otherwise engage in transactions that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of our securities and the risks associated with holding our common stock. Our Insider Trading Policy also prohibits trading in publicly-traded options, such as puts and calls, and other derivative securities with respect to our securities (other than stock options and other compensatory equity awards issued by us), as well holding our common stock in margin accounts.
Compensation Risk Assessment
Unity conducted a review of its key compensation programs, policies and practices to assess areas of compensation risk or exposure. The Compensation Risk Assessment was reviewed by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee and, with respect to executive compensation, its independent compensation consultant, Semler Brossy. It was presented to the HCCC at its September 2023 meeting. The risk assessment found no policies or practices that incentivize behavior that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
Beginning after a phase-in period which runs five years from our initial public offering, or five years from the date of appointment in the case of executive officers or directors who were appointed after our initial public offering, non-CEO executive officers must hold a number of shares equal to the lesser of 3x their base salary or 8,533 shares. The CEO must hold a number of shares equal to the lesser of 5x his base salary or 46,154 shares. Non-employee directors must hold a number of shares equal to the lesser of $400,000 or 3,846 shares.
Insider Trading Policy
We are committed to compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations around the trading of our stock. As part of this commitment, we have adopted our Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers, employees and agents (such as consultants and contractors), including those of our subsidiaries. Our Insider Trading Policy is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the rules of the NYSE.

1.The amounts disclosed represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs and stock options granted to our named executive officers during the relevant years under our 2020 Stock Plan, computed in accordance with ASC 718. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the RSUs and stock options reported in the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns are set forth in Note 12 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. These amounts do not reflect the actual economic value that will be realized by the named executive officers upon the vesting of the RSUs or stock options, the exercise of the stock options, or the sale of any common stock acquired under such RSUs or stock options. For Mr. Riccitiello, the value in these columns for 2023 represents incremental stock-based compensation expense the Company recognized in connection with the continuation of his vesting for 6 months following his retirement and the extension of the post-termination exercise period of his stock option awards, discussed below.

Such amount reflects our calculation of the value of the modification of his equity awards in accordance with ASC 718, and does not necessarily correspond to the actual value that may ultimately be realized by him.
2.Represents cash bonuses paid under our Cash Incentive Bonus Plan as described in "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" above. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee determined not to pay out any bonuses for 2023 to our Named Executive Officers who were still serving as executive officers in 2024 (even though he or she could have been eligible for meeting certain individual performance criteria), reflecting continued accountability for our 2023 financial performance.
3.The amounts reported for 2023 for Ms. Carpenter, Ms. Gupta, Mr. Whitten and Mr. Visoso consist of 401(k) employer contributions. For Mr. Bar-Zeev, amounts reported for 2023 consist of contributions to (i) an education fund (the “Keren Hishtalmut Fund”) for the benefit of Mr. Bar-Zeev in an annual amount equal to 7.5% of Mr. Bar-Zeev’s annual salary, approximately $62,000, (ii) car payments of approximately $48,000 and (iii) mandatory contributions to a fund as required by Israeli law which transfers in ownership to Mr. Bar-Zeev upon his departure from the company in an amount of approximately $112,600.
4. Mses. Carpenter and Gupta and Mr. Bar-Zeev joined Unity in 2022. Mr. Bar-Zeev was not a named executive officer in 2022.

1.These columns set forth the threshold, target, and maximum annual cash bonus amounts that could be earned by each named executive officer, except for Mr. Bar-Zeev, for 2023 under the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan. The target annual cash bonus opportunities set forth in the “Estimated Possible Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards—Target” column were set as a percentage of each named executive officer’s base salary earned for 2023, the threshold annual cash bonus opportunities set forth in the “Estimated Possible Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards—Threshold” represent amounts that the named executive officers would have received if the company performance factor was achieved at minimum and individual performance factors were achieved at 0% and the maximum annual cash bonuses opportunities set forth in the “Estimated Possible Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards—Maximum” column represent 165% of the target cash bonus opportunities. With respect to Mr. Bar-Zeev, the target was eight months of base salary (or 67%) with a max of twelve months of base salary (or 100%), per his employment agreement. The dollar value of the actual bonus award earned for 2023 for each Named Executive Officer is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table above. As such, the amounts set forth in these columns do not represent either additional or actual compensation earned by the named executive officers for 2023. For a description of the Cash Incentive Bonus Plan, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—2023 Executive Compensation Program—Cash Incentive Bonus Plan” above.
2.The amounts reported in this column do not reflect dollar amounts actually received by the Named Executive Officer. Instead, the amounts represent the (a) aggregate grant date fair value of options or RSUs granted to each such officer during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 under our 2020 Plan computed in accordance with ASC 718, or (b) in the case of Mr. Riccitiello, the incremental stock-based compensation expense the Company recognized in connection with the modification of his equity awards pursuant to the terms of his transition agreement, described in the section below. These amounts reflect our calculation of the value of these awards, in accordance with ASC 718, and do not necessarily correspond to the actual value that may ultimately be realized by our Named Executive Officers.

AGREEMENTS WITH OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
We have entered into offer letters with each of our Named Executive Officers setting forth the terms and conditions of such executive’s employment with us. The offer letters generally provide for at-will employment and set forth the Named Executive Officer’s initial base salary and target annual bonus opportunity, along with the grant of an initial new hire equity award, and, in the case of Mr. Riccitiello, severance payments and benefits payable on certain qualifying terminations of employment or, in the case of Mr. Whitten, Mr. Downie and Ms. Carpenter severance payments and benefits as described in the Senior Executive Severance Plan (the “Senior Executive Plan”), and the General and Administrative Executive Severance Plan in the case of Mr. Visoso and Ms. Gupta (together with the Senior Executive Plan, the “Executive Severance Plans”). Mr. Bar-Zeev did not participate in our Executive Severance Plans. Each of our Named Executive Officers has executed our standard proprietary information and inventions agreement.
Offer Letter with James Whitehurst
In October 2023, we entered into an offer letter with Mr. Whitehurst to serve as our interim President and Chief Executive Officer. The offer letter provided for an annual base salary of $1,120,000 and an award of 200,000 restricted stock units, which vest as follows: (1) 50% on February 25, 2024 (“Tranche 1”) and (2) the remaining 50% on May 25, 2024 (“Tranche 2”); provided that, should the employment start date of the Company’s permanent Chief Executive Officer (the “Permanent CEO Start Date”) occur prior to May 25, 2024, both Tranche 1 (to the extent not previously vested) and Tranche 2 shall vest on the Permanent CEO Start Date and settle on the next regular quarterly installment date following the Permanent CEO Start Date; provided further, that should Mr. Whitehurst’s employment terminate for any reason, other than by his voluntary resignation or a termination for Cause (as defined in the offer letter), prior to May 25, 2024, both Tranche 1 (to the extent not previously vested) and Tranche 2 shall vest on the date of such termination and settle on the next regular quarterly installment date following the date of such termination; provided further, that Mr. Whitehurst shall not be entitled to any future vesting if, prior to May 25, 2024, he (i) voluntarily resigns from his position as Interim Chief Executive Officer or (ii) is terminated for Cause.
Transition Agreement with John Riccitiello
In connection with his retirement, we entered into a transition agreement (the “Transition Agreement”) with Mr. Riccitiello pursuant to which Mr. Riccitiello continued to receive his base salary and previously granted equity awards continued to vest for a six month period. The Transition Agreement also provided for a customary release of claims by Mr. Riccitiello. In addition, Mr. Riccitiello was entitled to an extension of the post-termination exercise period of his vested stock options outstanding on his retirement until earliest to occur of (i) five years following his retirement, (ii) the applicable expiration date of the applicable award, or (iii) such earlier date as provided or permitted under the applicable equity plan, subject to certain conditions described in the Transition Agreement.
Agreements with Tomer Bar-Zeev
Employment Agreement and Welcome Offer Letter

The Employment Arrangement entitled Mr. Bar-Zeev to an annual equity award valued at $4,000,000, provided as a combination of stock options and RSUs with a conversion ratio of 2.5 stock options to 1 RSU. It also entitled him to a target annual cash bonus opportunity equal to eight times his monthly salary (and an additional amount up to four additional months of salary in the case of over achievement). In addition, if Mr. Bar-Zeev was terminated in connection with a change of control, he would have been entitled to 12 months of base salary and benefits, and full acceleration of any equity awards granted to him prior to the ironSource Merger. For purposes of his Employment Arrangement, the ironSource Merger constituted a change of control.

Mutual Separation Agreement
In January 2024, we entered into a mutual separation agreement with Tomer Bar-Zeev in connection with his departure from his role as President, Grow (the “Bar-Zeev Mutual Separation Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Bar-Zeev will continue to receive his base salary and previously granted equity awards will continue to vest for a six month period, until July 12, 2024 (the “Separation Date”).

He also will receive on the Separation Date a lump sum payment equal to five months of his base salary. In addition, he received full acceleration of all equity awards granted before November 1, 2023 (which he was entitled to under the Employment Agreement), and full acceleration of all remaining unvested equity upon the Separation Date. Prior to his Separation Date, he also is entitled to choose to extend the post-termination exercise period of his vested stock options until earliest to occur of (i) five years following the Separation Date or (ii) the applicable expiration date of the applicable award.
Mutual Separation Agreement with Clive Downie
In February 2024, we entered into a mutual separation agreement with Clive Downie in connection with his departure from the Company (the “Downie Mutual Separation Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Downie continued to be employed until April 28, 2024 (the “Downie Separation Date”). The Downie Mutual Separation Agreement provided for a customary release of claims by Mr. Downie. In addition, Mr. Downie will receive a lump sum payment equal to six months of his base salary and 100% of his 2024 bonus, prorated to the Downie Separation Date, a lump sum equal to six months’ payment for COBRA, and a cash payment of $480 for a subscription to a career networking website. He also is entitled to an extension of the post-termination exercise period of his vested stock options until earliest to occur of (i) two years following his separation from the Company or (ii) the applicable expiration date of the applicable award.
Executive Severance Agreements and Change in Control Benefits
In 2023, our Named Executive Officers other than Mr. Riccitiello, Mr. Bar-Zeev and Mr. Whitehurst participated in our Executive Severance Plans. The Executive Severance Plans provide for severance payments and/or benefits in the event of certain qualifying terminations or in connection with a “change in control,” in lieu of any such payments or benefits otherwise provided in an employment agreement, offer letter or equity award agreement.
Our Executive Severance Plans provide that in the event of a termination for any reason, participants will receive any earned but unpaid salary, unpaid expense reimbursements, accrued but unused vacation or leave entitlement, and any vested benefits under any of our employee benefit plans. In the event of a Qualified Termination Event (as defined in the Executive Severance Plans), which is generally a termination other than for cause (as defined in the Executive Severance Plans), death or disability, or a resignation for good reason, at any time other than the period beginning three months prior to a change in control (as defined in our 2019 Stock Plan) and ending on the one-year anniversary of a change in control (the “CIC Period”), participants are entitled to the following benefits subject to execution of a separation agreement and release of claims and provided that they have been continuously employed by the Company for at least one year: (i) six months of base salary, (ii) the participant’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to termination, prorated for the days of service provided in the year of termination, and (iii) a lump sum cash payment equal to the monthly employer contribution that would have been made to provide health insurance to the participant for six months following the date of termination.

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In the event of a Qualified Termination Event (as defined in the Executive Severance Plans) during a CIC Period, participants are entitled to the following benefits, subject to execution of a separation agreement and release of claims and provided that they have been continuously employed by the Company for at least one year: (i) 12 months of base salary, (ii) the participant’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to termination or, if higher, immediately prior to the change in control, (iii) a lump sum cash payment equal to the monthly employer contribution that would have been made to provide health insurance to the participant for 12 months following the date of termination; and (iv) acceleration of 100% of the then-unvested portion of any option or other equity award as of the later of the date of termination or the change in control (50% for any participant who has been employed by the Company for less than one year). The Executive Severance Plans provide that in the event that any payment or benefit payable to a participant would result in the imposition of excise taxes under the “golden parachute” provisions of Section 280G of the Code, then such payments and benefits will be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so that no portion of the benefits will be subject to the excise tax; provided, however, that if the post-tax amount would result in a higher amount than if the reduction occurred, then no such reduction will occur. Please refer to the section “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” for additional details.
Effective March 7, 2023, we merged the Executive Severance Plans together, such that all future named executive officers will participate in our Executive Severance Plan going forward (the “Revised Severance Plan”). The payments and benefits provided under the Revised Severance Plan are the same as described above.

2.The value realized on vesting is based on the number of shares of our common stock underlying the RSU awards that vested multiplied by the closing market price of our common stock on the vesting date.
PENSION BENEFITS
Other than with respect to our 401(k) plan, our U.S. employees, including our U.S.-based Named Executive Officers, do not participate in any plan that provides for retirement payments and benefits, or payments and benefits that will be provided primarily following retirement. Because Mr. Bar-Zeev is based in Israel, he received a government-required payment during his service to a fund owned by the Company which transfers upon termination to the employee. The contributions to this fund made by the Company on Mr. Bar-Zeev’s behalf in 2023 are reported in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table.
NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION
During 2023, our U.S. employees, including our Named Executive Officers, did not contribute to, or earn any amounts with respect to, any defined contribution or other plan sponsored by us that provides for the deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
As of December 31, 2023, each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Messrs. Whitehurst, Riccitiello, and Bar-Zeev were eligible for severance benefits pursuant to, the applicable Executive Severance Plan, as defined and further described above under “Agreements with our Named Executive Officers—Executive Severance Agreements and Change in Control Benefits.” In addition, each of our Named Executive Officers hold equity awards that are subject to the terms of the equity incentive plan and award agreement thereunder under which such awards were granted. The following table presents information concerning estimated payments and benefits that would be provided in the circumstances described above for each of the Named Executive Officers serving as of the end of the year ending December 31, 2023. For a description of the amounts actually payable to Messrs. Riccitiello, Bar-Zeev and Downie in connection with each of their separations from the Company, please see “—Agreements with our Named Executive Officers” above. The payments and benefits set forth below are estimated assuming that the termination or change in control event occurred on the last business day of the year ending December 31, 2023 using the closing market price of our common stock on that date. Actual payments and benefits could be different if such events were to occur on any other date or at any other price or if any other assumptions are used to estimate potential payments and benefits.

1.Mr. Whitehurst is not entitled to any severance in connection with a Qualified Termination Event. For Mr. Bar-Zeev, a “Qualified Termination Event” includes is a termination other than for cause or a resignation for good reason, and if such event occurs within 36 months after a change in control it is considered “in connection with” such change in control. For the other Named Executive Officers, a “Qualified Termination Event” is generally a termination other than for cause (as defined in the Executive Severance Plans), death or disability, or a resignation for good reason. Such event that occurs within three months prior or the twelve months following a change in control is considered occurring “in connection with” such change in control for purposes of each of the named executive officer’s severance benefits listed above. Amounts reflected in this table assume that awards are assumed, continued, or substituted for in the event of a change in control. Any awards not so assumed, continued or substituted for in connection with a change in control are accelerated and vest in full immediately prior to a change in control, regardless of whether or not the named executive officer is terminated.
2.Represents full equity acceleration of all unvested time-based equity awards upon death of a named executive officer who has provided service to the Company for 1 year, or 50% acceleration if less than 1 year, pursuant to the terms of the applicable award documentation provided to named executive officers under the 2020 Stock Plan, 2019 Stock Plan or 2009 Stock Plan, as applicable. Per ASC 718, the value of accelerated stock options is the aggregate spread between $40.89, the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023, and the exercise prices of the accelerated stock options, if less than $40.89, and the value of accelerated RSU awards is calculated by multiplying the number of shares subject to acceleration by $40.89. The amount reported in this column does not include any value with respect to the acceleration of outstanding PVUs, for which the applicable vesting conditions would not have been satisfied assuming a termination due to death as of December 31, 2023. Upon the termination of a Named Executive Officer’s service due to his or her death, with respect to any PVU vesting tranche for which the applicable stock price hurdle has been achieved, but for which the continued service requirement has not been satisfied, prior to the termination date, the continued service requirement will be deemed satisfied as of the termination date in full, for a Named Executive Officer who has provided service to the Company for 1 year, or at 50% for a Named Executive Officer who has provided service to the Company for less than 1 year, pursuant to the terms of the PVU Agreements under the 2020 Plan. All other PVUs will be forfeited.
3.Represents (i) a lump-sum payment equal to 12 months of base salary, and (ii) the participant’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to termination, or, if higher, immediately prior to the change in control.

4.Represents 12 months of employer-paid contributions to health insurance.
5.Represents accelerated vesting of 100% of the named executive officer’s then-outstanding time-based equity awards. Per SEC rules, the value of accelerated stock options is the aggregate spread between $40.89, the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023, and the exercise prices of the accelerated stock options, if less than $40.89, and the value of accelerated RSU awards is calculated by multiplying the number of shares subject to acceleration by $40.89. The amount reported in this column does not include any value with respect to the acceleration of outstanding PVUs, for which the applicable vesting conditions would not have been satisfied assuming a Qualified Termination Event in connection with a Change in Control as of December 29, 2023 (and a per-share transaction price of $40.89). In the event that a Change in Control occurs during the performance period applicable to any outstanding PVU awards, the PVUs subject to a vesting tranche will be eligible to vest following the Change in Control subject to the continued service requirement, but only to the extent that (i) the stock price hurdle for such vesting tranche has been satisfied prior to the date of such Change in Control or (ii) the per-share transaction price exceeds the applicable stock price hurdle for such vesting tranche in connection with such Change in Control (any such vesting tranche that satisfies the stock price hurdle prior to or in connection with such Change in Control, an “Eligible Vesting Tranche”). Any vesting tranche that is not an Eligible Vesting Tranche will be forfeited without consideration as of the date of such Change in Control. If a named executive officer experiences a Qualified Termination Event in connection with a Change in Control, any Eligible Vesting Tranche will become fully vested as of the date of the Qualified Termination Event.
6.Represents (i) six months of base salary and (ii) the participant’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to termination, prorated for the days of service provided in the year of termination.
7.Represents six months of employer-paid contributions to health insurance.
8.For purposes of Mr. Bar-Zeev’s Employment Arrangement, the ironSource Merger constituted a change of control, discussed above under “Agreements With our Named Executive Officers—Agreements with Tomer Bar-Zeev.”
CEO Pay Ratio
The combined fiscal year 2023 annual total compensation of our two Named Executive Officers who served as CEO during 2023 (our former CEO, John Riccitiello, and our interim CEO, James Whitehurst) totaled $33,325,612 as detailed in the Summary Compensation Table. The 2023 annual total compensation of our median compensated employee totaled $148,622. This resulted in a ratio of 224 to 1. As disclosed above, the total compensation for Mr. Riccitiello includes the incremental stock-based compensation expense the Company recognized in connection with the continuation of his vesting for six months following his retirement and the extension of the post-termination exercise period of his stock option awards, such amount reflects our calculation of the value of the modification of his awards, in accordance with ASC 718, and does not necessarily correspond to the actual value that may ultimately be realized by him. Excluding the value associated with the modification of Mr. Riccitiello’s equity awards, the ratio would have been 44 to 1.
In accordance with Instruction 2 to Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, because there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements in the past fiscal year that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure, we elected to utilize the same median employee that we had identified in 2022 to calculate our 2023 CEO pay ratio. To identify the median employee, we took into account target annual base salary, target cash incentive bonus or target commission, and the grant value of equity compensation. Once we identified the median compensated employee, total cash and equity compensation was calculated using the same guidelines as the Summary Compensation Table. We looked at our population as of calendar year end, December 31, 2022. This included all of our employees, except our CEO, regardless of full-time or part-time status, but excluded contingent workers, students, and interns. Any employees whose pay was in a currency other than USD was converted to USD using a foreign exchange rate as of December 29, 2022. The final population included 7,610 employees for this analysis.
The pay ratio reported above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our internal records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s total annual compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Therefore, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

Relationship Disclosures
Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviews a variety of Company-wide and individual factors to link executive compensation actually paid with Company and executive performance. To promote strong pay-for-performance orientation when setting executive pay levels, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee considers the Company's absolute and relative total shareholder return, short- and long-term business outlook, including income and revenue growth, and the broader market environment.
The following graphs set forth the relationships between the Company’s cumulative total shareholder return relative to peer comparators, as well as compensation actually paid relative to the Company’s total shareholder return, net income (loss), and revenue over the last four completed fiscal years. Note that the Human Capital and Compensation Committee assesses target compensation and potentially realizable compensation in addition to compensation actually paid to maintain a holistic understanding of executive total compensation packages.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy
We annually review our corporate governance policies, including our non-employee director compensation policy (“the Policy”). In March 2022, in consultation with our compensation consultant, Semler Brossy, we amended and restated the Policy, which became effective immediately and was in effect for all awards granted in 2022 and 2023. These changes made in 2022 were intended to ensure competitiveness and alignment with market practice. Pursuant to this policy, non-employee directors were eligible to receive the compensation described below.

2023 Annual Grant and Cash Election
At the close of business on the date of our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director was automatically granted an RSU award covering the number of shares of our common stock equal to (i) $235,000 minus such non-employee director’s Annual Cash Election (as defined below), if any, divided by (ii) the closing sales price per share of our common stock on the date of the applicable annual meeting. Each annual grant will fully vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the applicable grant date and (ii) the date of the first annual meeting following the applicable grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service through the vesting date. Each director was also automatically granted a cash award of $50,000, unless the director elected to receive it in RSUs.

Non-employee directors could elect to receive up to $50,000 of the value of the annual grant in the form of a cash payment (any such amount that is elected if referred to as the “Annual Cash Election”).
2024 Annual Grant and Cash Election
In September 2023, we again reviewed the Policy with Semler Brossy and amended and restated the Policy, which became effective immediately and will be in effect for all awards granted in 2024. These changes were intended to simplify the payments made to our non-employee directors, although did not change the total amount of compensation.
At the close of business on the date of our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director will automatically be granted an RSU award covering the number of shares of our common stock equal to (i) $285,000 minus such non-employee director’s Annual Cash Election (as defined below), if any, divided by (ii) the closing sales price per share of our common stock on the date of the applicable annual meeting. Each annual grant will fully vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the applicable grant date and (ii) the date of the first annual meeting following the applicable grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service through the vesting date. Each director may elect, prior to the calendar year end, to receive up to $100,000 in cash rather than in RSUs. Any such annual cash retainer grant will fully vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the applicable grant date and (ii) the date of the first annual meeting of stockholders following the applicable grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service through the vesting date.
Committee Retainer Grant
At the close of business on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director will automatically be granted an RSU award covering the number of shares of our common stock equal to (i) the Total Retainer (as defined below) divided by (ii) the closing sales price per share of our common stock on the date of the applicable annual meeting, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Each retainer grant will fully vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the applicable grant date and (ii) the date of the first annual meeting following the applicable grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service through the vesting date. Prior to amending the Policy in September 2023, non-employee directors could elect to receive all or a portion of the Committee Retainer Grant in the form of a cash payment.
The “Total Retainer” is the sum of the following retainer fees, as applicable with respect to such non-employee director, measured as of the date of the retainer grant:

Committee Chair: | $25,000
Committee Member: | $10,000

In addition, under the non-employee director compensation policy each non-employee director elected or appointed to our Board will automatically, upon the date of his or her initial election or appointment as a non-employee director (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day thereafter), be granted an RSU award covering the number of shares of our common stock equal to (i) $400,000 divided by (ii) the closing sales price per share of our common stock on the applicable grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Each initial grant will vest in a series of successive equal quarterly installments over the three-year period measured from the applicable grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service through each vesting date.
Acceleration upon a Change in Control or In the Event of Death
The non-employee director compensation policy provides that for each non-employee director who remains in continuous service with us until immediately prior to the closing of a Change in Control (as defined in the 2020 Plan), the shares subject to his or her then-outstanding equity awards that were granted pursuant to the non-employee director compensation policy, as well as any other then-outstanding equity awards then held by such non-employee director, and any Cash Amount elected in lieu of a portion of an annual grant, will become fully vested (and in the case of the Cash Amount, payable) immediately prior to the closing of such Change in Control.
In addition, if a non-employee director’s continuous service terminates because of their death (i) within the first year of continuous service, then 50% of any RSU award held by such non-employee director shall vest and become payable effective as of immediately prior to the effective time of such termination or (ii) on or after the first year of their continuous service, then 100% of any RSU award held by such non-employee director shall vest and become payable effective as of immediately prior to the effective time of such termination (the “Death Benefit”). The Death Benefit only applies to awards outstanding under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan and not the ironSource Plans. If the non-employee director elected a Retainer Cash Election or Annual Cash Election and their continuous service terminates because of their death (i) within the first year of continuous service, then 50% of the Retainer Cash Election and/or Annual Cash Election, as applicable, shall be paid to their legal representative within ten (10) business days of the effective time of termination or (ii) on or after the first year of their continuous service, then 100% of the Retainer Cash Election and/or Annual Cash Election, as applicable, shall be paid to their legal representative within ten (10) business days of the effective time of termination.
Expenses
We will also continue to reimburse each non-employee director for ordinary, necessary and reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to cover in-person attendance at and participation in board and committee meetings.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS POLICY AND PROCEDURES
Our Board adopted a related person transaction policy setting forth the policies and procedures for the identification, review and approval or, if appropriate, ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers, with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we and a related person were or will be participants and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, including purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness and guarantees of indebtedness. In reviewing and approving any such transactions, our Audit Committee will consider all relevant facts and circumstances as appropriate, such as the purpose of the transaction, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services, whether the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in an arm’s length transaction, management’s recommendation with respect to the proposed related person transaction, and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.
CERTAIN RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
Other than compensation arrangements for our directors and executive officers, which are described elsewhere in this proxy statement, below we describe transactions since January 1, 2023 and each currently proposed transaction in which:
k We have been or are to be a participant;
k The amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and
k Any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our outstanding capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals or entities, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the transactions described below were comparable to terms available or the amounts that would be paid or received, as applicable in arm’s-length transactions.

PIPE TRANSACTION
In July 2022 we entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with certain entities affiliated with Silver Lake and Sequoia Capital (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), which hold more than 5% of our outstanding capital stock and are affiliated with members of our Board, relating to the issuance and sale to the PIPE Investors of $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 2.0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes” and such transaction, the “PIPE Transaction”). The PIPE Transaction closed pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement upon the closing of our merger with ironSource in November 2022. The 2027 Notes are governed by an indenture, dated November 8, 2022, between us and U.S Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. As of December 31, 2023 there was $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount outstanding and we paid $20,388,889 in interest in 2023.
INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT
We are party to an amended and restated Investor Rights Agreement (“IRA”), with certain holders of its capital stock, including entities affiliated with Sequoia Capital, DFJ Growth, and Silver Lake, which each hold greater than 5% of our outstanding capital stock and/or are affiliated with members of the Board. The IRA provides the certain holders of our capital stock with certain registration rights, including the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their shares be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.
A number of brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be “householding” the Company’s proxy materials. A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, please notify your broker or Unity Software Inc. Direct your written request to Investor Relations at ir@unity3d.com or call 1-800-579-1639. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request to the address or telephone number above, a separate copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or the full set of proxy materials, as applicable, to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.
