Exhibit 10.1

March 8, 2022

Michael Walrath

Dear Michael,

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between Yext, Inc. (the “Company,” “Yext,” or “we”) and you. This Agreement is effective as of the date signed below. The purpose of this Agreement is to confirm the current terms and conditions of your employment.

1. Position. Commencing on March 25, 2022, your title will be Chief Executive Officer. During your period of employment with the Company, you are also expected to devote your entire working time for or at the direction of the Company or its affiliates. While working for Yext, employees are not permitted to engage in any other paid activities without the prior written consent of an authorized Company officer or to engage in any other unpaid activities that inhibit or prohibit the performance of your duties to the Company or inhibit or conflict in any way with the business of the Company.

2. Compensation. (a) Cash Compensation. You will not receive any cash compensation, including either a salary and/or cash bonus; (b) Equity Compensation. As an inducement material to your joining the Company as Chief Executive Officer, your equity compensation consists of the following: a grant of 2,000,000 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), with both time-based vesting requirements and performance-based vesting requirements, as further detailed in your RSU Agreement. Generally, the RSU Grant shall vest 1/16 per quarter over a period of 4 years. Vesting shall also be subject to and contingent upon achieving the following stock price targets: 25% of the RSUs at a target of $15 per share, 25% of the RSUs at a target of $17 per share, 25% of the RSUs at a target of $19 per share, and 25% of the RSUs at a target of $21 per share. The RSUs will be subject to a stand-alone form of RSU agreement (the “RSU Agreement”). This summary description of the RSUs will be qualified in its entirety by the terms of the RSUs set forth in the RSU Agreement.

3. Benefits. During your employment with the Company you will be entitled to participate in all of our then current customary employee benefit plans and programs, subject to eligibility requirements, enrollment criteria, and the other terms and conditions of such plans and programs. The Company reserves the right to change or rescind its benefit plans and programs and alter employee contribution levels in its discretion and in accordance with the plans.

4. Exempt Status. Your position is exempt from state and federal requirements regarding overtime. Your days and hours of work will normally coincide with the Company’s normal work days and work hours. However, the nature of your employment with the Company requires flexibility in the days and hours that you must work, and may necessitate that you work on other or additional days and hours. The Company reserves the right to require you, and you agree, to work during other or further days or hours than the Company’s normal business hours for no additional consideration.

5. Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. As an employee of the Company, you will continue to have access to certain confidential information of the Company and you may, during the course of your employment, develop certain information or inventions that will be the property of the Company. To protect the interests of the Company, your acceptance of this Agreement reaffirms that the terms of the Company’s Employee Proprietary Information, Inventions and Covenants Agreement that you executed contemporaneously herewith (the “Covenants Agreement”) continue to be in effect.

6. Employment Relationship. Although we hope that your employment with us is mutually satisfactory, employment at the Company is not for any specific period of time; but instead your employment is at all times “at will.” This means that you may terminate your employment with or without cause or prior notice, and the Company has the same right. In addition, the Company may change your compensation, duties, assignments, responsibilities or location of your position at any time to adjust to the changing needs of our dynamic company. These provisions expressly supersede any previous representations, oral or written. Your at-will employment status cannot be modified unless it is written and signed by both you and an authorized officer of the Company.

7. Severability and Governing Law. If any term herein is unenforceable in whole or in part, the remainder shall remain enforceable to the extent permitted by law. This letter will be governed under New York law.

8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Covenants Agreement, constitutes the complete agreement with respect to your employment relationship with the Company and supersede and replace any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral, implied or otherwise) between you and the Company.

Please indicate your acceptance of this Agreement, and confirmation that it contains our complete agreement regarding the terms and conditions of your employment, by signing the bottom portion of this Agreement and returning a copy to me.

Sincerely,

Yext, Inc.

By: Ho Shin, General Counsel

I accept this offer of employment with Yext and agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this letter.

Exhibit 10.2

YEXT, INC.

STAND-ALONE INDUCEMENT RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

NOTICE OF GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD

Participant has been granted the right to receive an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, as follows:

Vesting Schedule:

The Restricted Stock Units will vest as set forth on the attached Vesting Appendix.

In the event Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason before Participant vests in the Restricted Stock Units, the Restricted Stock Units and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.

By Participant’s signature and the signature of the representative of Yext, Inc. (the “Company”) below, Participant and the Company agree that this Award of Restricted Stock Units is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement.  Participant has reviewed this Award Agreement, including the Vesting Appendix, the Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Award, attached hereto as Exhibit A in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Award Agreement and fully understands all provisions of the Award Agreement.  Participant hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions relating to the Award Agreement.  Participant further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence address.

VESTING APPENDIX

This Vesting Appendix sets forth the vesting terms for the performance-based Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant (the “PSUs”).

1.                Performance Vesting. PSUs become eligible to vest (“Eligible PSUs”) based upon achievement of the following stock price targets (measured based on the average closing price of a Share for any 30 consecutive trading day period (“Stock Price Achievement”):

·         Tranche 1: 25% of the PSUs become Eligible PSUs upon Stock Price Achievement that equals or exceeds $15 (“Hurdle 1”).

·         Tranche 2: 25% of the PSUs become Eligible PSUs upon Stock Price Achievement that equals or exceeds $17 (“Hurdle 2”).

·         Tranche 3: 25% of the PSUs become Eligible PSUs upon Stock Price Achievement that equals or exceeds $19 (“Hurdle 3”).

·         Tranche 4: 25% of the PSUs become Eligible PSUs upon Stock Price Achievement that equals or exceeds $21 (“Hurdle 4”).

Each of the tranches eligible to become Eligible PSUs are referred to herein as a “Tranche,” and each stock price target with respect to a Tranche is referred to herein as a “Hurdle.” If the Company incurs a change in capitalization as specified in Section 13(a) of the Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Award (for example, a stock-split), then each Hurdle and the Shares subject to the Award will be proportionately adjusted to account for such change in capitalization.

If an applicable Hurdle is achieved, then achievement related to such Hurdle shall be deemed to occur, and no subsequent stock price decrease will have any effect on a previous achievement.

All determinations regarding Stock Price Achievement shall be made on the date on which the Administrator approves such achievement (either in a meeting or through written consent) (such date, the “Certification Date”).

2.             Time-Based Vesting. If a Tranche becomes Eligible PSUs, then the Eligible PSUs will vest on the following schedule:

The Eligible PSUs of the applicable earned Tranche will vest quarterly in 1/16 increments beginning on June 20, 2022 and thereafter on each subsequent Quarterly Vesting Date, subject to Participant continuing to be a Service Provider through each vesting date.

The Company’s “Quarterly Vesting Dates” are June 20, September 20, December 20 and March 20 of each year.

In the event Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason before Participant vests (e.g., both determination of the applicable Stock Price Achievement milestone and the first Quarterly Vesting Date thereafter) in any Tranche, the Tranche and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.

3.                  Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs, the following will apply:

·         Any Tranche for which an applicable Hurdle has not been achieved will be forfeited if the applicable stock price target exceeds the per Share price payable to Company stockholders in the Change in Control (the “Acquisition Price”).

·         Any Tranche that has become Eligible PSUs will have any time-based requirement set forth in Section 2 accelerated on the Change in Control.

For illustrative purposes, if Tranche 1 had been achieved in January 1, 2023, and a Change in Control occurs on July 1, 2023, then all of Eligible PSUs in Tranche 1 will accelerate and vesting upon the Change in Control.

·         Any Tranche that has not otherwise become Eligible PSUs will vest on the Change in Control (without any time-based vesting described in Section 2) if the Acquisition Price exceeds the applicable Hurdle.

For illustrative purposes, if no Tranche had become Eligible PSUs prior to a Change in Control, and the Acquisition Price exceeds $15 per Share, then Hurdle 1 shall be deemed to be achieved on the Change in Control and Tranche 1 will vest on the Change in Control without any time-based vesting described in Section 2.

(c)               Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations, and interpretations will be final and binding on the Participant and will be given the maximum deference permitted by Applicable Laws.

3.                  Grant. The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant (the “Participant”) an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement. The Award is intended to qualify as an employment inducement grant under NYSE Listing Rule 303A.08.

4.                  Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it vests. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 5 or 6, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections 5 or 6 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any applicable tax withholding obligations as set forth in Section 10. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in whole Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period sixty (60) days following the vesting date. In no event will Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to specify the taxable year of the payment of any Restricted Stock Units payable under this Award Agreement.

5.                  Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 6, and subject to Section 8, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs.

6.                  Administrator Discretion. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Award Agreement. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator. The payment of Shares vesting pursuant to this Section 6 shall in all cases be paid at a time or in a manner that is exempt from, or complies with, Section 409A.

Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6)-month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death. It is the intent of this Award Agreement that it and all payments and benefits hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply. Each payment payable under this Award Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.

7.                  Leaves of Absence/Transfer Between Locations. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of the Award will be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. The Participant will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Company or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company, its Parent, or any Subsidiary.

8.                  Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, the balance of the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider for any or no reason and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.

9.                  Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (i) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (ii) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

10.               Withholding of Taxes. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of income, employment, social insurance, payroll and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares. Prior to vesting and/or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) to satisfy all withholding and payment obligations of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable tax withholding obligations legally payable by Participant from his or her wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer or from proceeds of the sale of Shares. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under applicable local law, the Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit or require Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part (without limitation) by (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (d) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld (a “sell-to-cover”). To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, tax withholding obligations will be satisfied through a sell-to-cover. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required tax withholding obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest or tax withholding obligations related to Restricted Stock Units otherwise are due, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units and any right to receive Shares thereunder and the Restricted Stock Units will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

11.              Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant. After such issuance, recordation, and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

12.              No Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

13.              Adjustments; Dissolution or Liquidation; Change in Control.

(a)               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 the Award Agreement, will adjust the number and class of Shares covered by the Award.

(b)               Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

(c)               Change in Control. Except as set forth in this Section 13(c), in the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity or a Change in Control, the Award will be treated as the Administrator determines, including, without limitation, that the Award may be assumed, or a substantially equivalent award will be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares. In taking any of the actions permitted under this, the Administrator will not be required to treat the Award in a manner similar to the treatment of any other award in the transaction.

14.              Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award Agreement will be addressed to the Company at Yext, Inc., 61 9^th Avenue, New York, New York 10011, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.

15.              Award is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in Section 9, this Award and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this Award, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this Award and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.

16.              Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this Award contained herein, this Award Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

17.              Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

(a)               Legal Compliance. Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

(b)               Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

(c)               Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration, qualification or rule compliance of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal or foreign law, the tax code and related regulations or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, rule compliance, consent or approval will have been completed, effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. Where the Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation.
