LYFT, INC.
OUTSIDE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY
Originally adopted and approved by the Board of Directors on January 29, 2019, as amended by the Board of Directors on March 22, 2022 (the “Effective Date”)
Lyft, Inc. (the “Company”) believes that providing cash and equity compensation to its members of the Board of Directors (the “Board,” and members of the Board, the “Directors”) represents an effective tool to attract, retain and reward Directors who are not employees of the Company (the “Outside Directors”). This Outside Director Compensation Policy (the “Policy”) is intended to formalize the Company’s policy regarding the compensation to its Outside Directors effective as of the Effective Date. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Policy will have the meaning given to such terms in the Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), or if the Plan is no longer in use, the meaning given to such terms or any similar terms in the primary successor to the Plan. Each Outside Director will be solely responsible for any tax obligations incurred by such Outside Director as a result of the equity and cash payments such Outside Director receives under this Policy.
This Policy was originally effective as of March 28, 2019 (the “Original Effective Date”).
1.Cash Compensation
Annual Cash Retainer
Each Outside Director will be paid an annual cash retainer of $40,000. There are no per-meeting attendance fees for attending Board meetings.
Committee Annual Cash Retainer
Effective for service for the next fiscal quarter that begins following the Effective Date, each Outside Director who serves as the chair of the Board, the lead Outside Director, or the chair or a member of a committee of the Board listed below will be eligible to earn additional annual cash as follows:
Chair of the Board $50,000
Lead Outside Director: $25,000
Chair of Audit Committee: $25,000
Member of Audit Committee: $10,000
Chair of Compensation Committee: $20,000
Member of Compensation Committee: $8,500
Chair of Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $11,000
Member of Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $5,000
-1-

For clarity, each Outside Director who serves as the chair of a committee shall receive only the additional annual cash fee as the chair of the committee, and not the annual cash fee as a member of the committee.
Payment
Each annual cash retainer payable under this Policy for service as a member of the Board, the chair of the Board, the lead Outside Director, or the chair or a member of a committee of the Board (an “Annual Cash Retainer”) will be paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis to each Outside Director who has served in the relevant capacity at any point during the fiscal quarter. For purposes of clarification, and regardless of whether the Outside Director has made a Retainer Award Election (as defined immediately below), each Outside Director who has served as an Outside Director, chair of the Board, lead Outside Director, and/or as a member of an applicable committee (or chair thereof) during only a portion of the relevant Company fiscal quarter will receive a pro-rated cash payment of the quarterly payment of the applicable annual cash retainer(s), calculated based on the number of days during such fiscal quarter such Outside Director has served in the relevant capacities (such amount, the “Prorated Annual Cash Retainer”).
Election to Receive Fully Vested Restricted Stock Units
Subject to complying with the Retainer Award Election Mechanics below, and beginning with the Annual Cash Retainer payable with respect to the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2022, each Outside Director may elect to convert all of his or her Annual Cash Retainer with respect to services performed in a future fiscal quarter and otherwise scheduled to be paid following the completion of those services into an award of fully-vested restricted stock units granted under the Plan (“Retainer Award” and such election, a “Retainer Award Election”). If an Outside Director elects to receive all of his or her Annual Cash Retainer in the form of a Retainer Award, the Retainer Award will be issued automatically and in quarterly installments (such portion of the Retainer Award, a “Quarterly Retainer Award”) in arrears on the 20 th day of the month following the end of such immediately preceding fiscal quarter (such issuance date, the “Quarterly Retainer Award Grant Date”) as long as the Outside Director remains a Service Provider through such date. If an Outside Director provides services as an Outside Director for a partial fiscal quarter or terminates as a Service Provider prior to the Quarterly Retainer Award Grant Date, such Outside Director will be paid the Prorated Annual Cash Retainer in lieu of a Quarterly Retainer Award for his or her services during such fiscal quarter.
The number of Shares subject to an Outside Director’s Quarterly Retainer Award will be determined by dividing the amount of the Annual Cash Retainer that otherwise would be payable to such Outside Director with respect to such immediately preceding fiscal quarter by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Quarterly Retainer Award Grant Date (as determined in accordance with the Plan), with the result rounded to the nearest whole Share. The “Retainer Award Election Mechanics” are set forth below.
Each Retainer Award Election must be submitted to the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A or such other form as approved by the Board or the Compensation Committee. An Outside Director who fails to make a timely Retainer Award Election shall not receive a Quarterly Retainer Award for the next fiscal quarter, and instead shall receive the applicable portion of the Annual Cash Retainer for such fiscal quarter. Once a Retainer Award Election is validly submitted, it will remain in effect with respect to all future fiscal quarters unless the applicable Outside Director revokes such election in accordance with Section 1(b) below.
-2-

Retainer Award Elections must comply with the following timing requirements:
(a)Quarterly Election. Each Outside Director may make a Retainer Award Election. The Retainer Award Election must be submitted to the Company in accordance with the election form in substantially the form approved by the Committee for the Retainer Award Election, provided that any election must be submitted during an open trading window and at a time when the Outside Director otherwise is not restricted from trading Shares, and will be effective beginning with the fiscal quarter next following the fiscal quarter in which such Retainer Award Election is made, and, except as provided in subsection 1(b) below, the Retainer Award Election shall become irrevocable effective as of the date it is tendered to the Company, provided that if an Outside Director is not otherwise permitted to trade Shares under the Company’s insider trading policy at the time such Outside Director attempts to tender a Retainer Award Election, then such Outside Director will not be eligible to make such Retainer Award Election in such fiscal quarter.
(b)Revocation. If an Outside Director makes a valid Retainer Award Election, then such Outside Director may revoke his or her Retainer Award Election in accordance with the election form in substantially the form approved by the Committee for the Retainer Award Election, provided that any election must be submitted during any subsequent open trading window with respect to future fiscal quarters. If an Outside Director is not otherwise permitted to trade Shares under the Company’s insider trading policy at the time such Outside Director attempts to revoke his or her Retainer Award Election, then such Outside Director will not be eligible to revoke a Retainer Award Election in such fiscal quarter.
2.Equity Compensation
Outside Directors will be eligible to receive all types of Awards (except Incentive Stock Options) under the Plan (or the applicable equity plan in place at the time of grant), including discretionary Awards not covered under this Policy. All grants of Awards to Outside Directors pursuant to Section 2 of this Policy will be automatic and nondiscretionary, except as otherwise provided herein, and will be made in accordance with the following provisions:
(a)No Discretion. No person will have any discretion to select which Outside Directors will be granted any Awards under this Policy or to determine the number of Shares to be covered by such Awards.
(b)Initial Award. Subject to 4 of this Policy, each individual who first becomes an Outside Director following the Effective Date will be granted an award of restricted stock units (an “Initial Award”) covering a number of Shares having a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) (the “Grant Value”) equal to (x) $260,000 multiplied by (y) the fraction obtained by dividing (A) the number of full months during the period beginning on the date the individual first becomes an Outside Director and ending on the one-year anniversary of the date of the then-most recent Annual Meeting (the “Initial Award Vesting Period”) by (B) 12, rounded to the nearest whole Share. The Initial Award will be made on the first trading date on or after the date on which such individual first becomes an Outside Director, whether through election by the stockholders of the Company or appointment by the Board to fill a vacancy. If an individual was a member of the Board and also an employee, becoming an Outside Director due to termination of employment will not entitle the Outside Director to an Initial Award.
Subject to Section 3 of this Policy, each Initial Award will vest in equal installments over the remaining Quarterly Vesting Dates (as defined below) occurring during the period
-3-

beginning on the date that is three months following the date that the Initial Award is granted and ending on the earlier of (i) the last day of the Initial Award Vesting Period or (ii) the day prior to the date of the Annual Meeting next following the date the Initial Award is granted, in each case, subject to the Outside Director continuing to be a Service Provider through the applicable vesting date. For the avoidance of doubt, in all events each Initial Award granted in accordance with this Policy will vest no later than the day prior to the date of the Annual Meeting next following the date the Initial Award was granted. “Quarterly Vesting Date” means each of February 20, May 20, August 20, and November 20.
(c)Annual Award. Subject to Section 4 of this Policy, on the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders following the Effective Date (each, an “Annual Meeting”), each Outside Director will be automatically granted an award of restricted stock units (an “Annual Award”) covering a number of Shares having a Grant Value of $260,000, rounded to the nearest whole Share.
Subject to Section 3 of this Policy, 25% of each Annual Award will vest on each of the first four Quarterly Vesting Dates occurring after the date the Annual Award is granted, except that the fourth quarterly vesting date of each Annual Award shall occur no later than the day prior to the date of the Annual Meeting next following the date the Annual Award was granted, in each case, subject to the Outside Director continuing to be a Service Provider through the applicable vesting date. For the avoidance of doubt, in all events each Annual Award granted in accordance with this Policy will vest upon the earlier to occur of (i) the fourth Quarterly Vesting Date occurring after the date that the Annual Award was granted or (ii) the day prior to the date of the Annual Meeting next following the date the Annual Award was granted.
(d)Deferral of Awards. Unless and until otherwise determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee, as applicable, each Outside Director may elect to defer the delivery of the settlement of any Retainer Award, Initial Award, or Annual Award, as applicable, that would otherwise be delivered to such Outside Director on or following the date such Award vests pursuant to the terms of Sections 1, 2(b) and 2(c) above, respectively (the “Deferral Election”). Unless otherwise determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee, for any such Deferral Election to be effective, it must be submitted on or prior to the end of the calendar year prior to the date the Award will be granted (or, in the case of any individual who first becomes an Outside Director following the Effective Date, within 30 days after the individual first becomes an Outside Director) (in each case, the “Deferral Election Deadline”). Any Deferral Election will be irrevocable, and will be subject to such rules, conditions and procedures as shall be determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, which rules, conditions and procedures shall at all times comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, unless otherwise specifically determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee. Deferral Elections shall be made pursuant to a form of deferral election in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B or such other form as approved by the Board or the Compensation Committee.
3.Change in Control
In the event of a Change in Control, 100% of each Outside Director’s then-outstanding Company equity awards granted under this Policy will become vested in full and, to the extent applicable, become immediately exercisable immediately prior to consummation of such Change in Control.
4.Annual Compensation Limit
-4-

No Outside Director may be paid, issued or granted, in any Fiscal Year, cash compensation and equity compensation award (including any Awards) with an aggregate value greater than $1,000,000 (with the value of each equity compensation award based on its Grant Value for purposes of the limitation under this Section 4). Any cash compensation paid or equity compensation award (including any Awards) granted to an individual for his or her services as an Employee, or for his or her services as a Consultant (other than as an Outside Director), will not count for purposes of the limitation under this Section 4.
5.Travel, Membership and Education Expenses
Each Outside Director’s reasonable, customary and documented travel expenses to Board or its committees meetings will be reimbursed by the Company. Each Outside Director will also be paid or reimbursed for up to $5,000 per Fiscal Year for membership fees or other expenses related to membership in an association related to such Outside Director’s service to the Board or its committees. Each Outside Director will also be paid or reimbursed for up to $10,000 per each two Fiscal Year period for director education expenses related to such Outside Director’s service to the Board or its committees.
6.Additional Provisions
All provisions of the Plan not inconsistent with this Policy will apply to Awards granted to Outside Directors.
7.Adjustments
In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Policy, will adjust the number of Shares issuable pursuant to Awards granted under this Policy.
8.Section 409A
In no event will cash compensation or expense reimbursement payments under this Policy be paid after the later of (i) 15th day of the 3rd month following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the compensation is earned or expenses are incurred, as applicable, or (ii) 15th day of the 3rd month following the end of the calendar year in which the compensation is earned or expenses are incurred, as applicable, in compliance with the “short-term deferral” exception under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final regulations and guidance thereunder, as may be amended from time to time (together, “Section 409A”). It is the intent of this Policy that this Policy and all payments hereunder be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the compensation to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or comply. In no event will the Company
-5-

reimburse an Outside Director for any taxes or other costs incurred as a result of Section 409A or any other tax law or rule.
9.Stockholder Approval
The initial adoption of the Policy was subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders (the “Initial Stockholder Approval”). The Initial Stockholder Approval occurred prior to the Original Effective Date. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, following the Initial Stockholder Approval, the Policy shall not be subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders, including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with an event contemplated in Section 10 hereof.
10.Revisions
The Board may amend, alter, suspend or terminate this Policy at any time and for any reason. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of this Policy will materially impair the rights of an Outside Director with respect to compensation that already has been paid or awarded, unless otherwise mutually agreed between the Outside Director and the Company. Termination of this Policy will not affect the Board’s or the Compensation Committee’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it under the Plan with respect to Awards granted under the Plan pursuant to this Policy prior to the date of such termination.
