Item 5.02. Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
To contribute to GoPro, Inc.'s (“the Company”) efforts to reduce its operating expenses for 2025, Nicholas Woodman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, volunteered to waive his salary for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2025 (the “Salary Waiver”). Therefore, in connection with the Salary Waiver, Mr. Woodman and the Company entered into a Waiver Agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”), effective as of March 19, 2025. The parties agreed as follows: (a) that the Salary Waiver shall not constitute “Good Reason” or “CIC Good Reason,” each as defined in the Employment Letter to Nicholas Woodman dated June 2, 2014 and filed as Exhibit 10.16 to the Company’s Form S-1/A filed with the SEC on June 11, 2014, and any application of “Good Reason” or “CIC Good Reason” shall not consider the decrease in Mr. Woodman’s base salary for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2025; (b) the Salary Waiver is expected to have adverse effects on Mr. Woodman’s participation in certain benefit plans, which shall not constitute “Good Reason” or “CIC Good Reason”; and (c) Mr. Woodman has no expectation or entitlement to a true-up, gross-up or similar payment to compensate him for the Salary Waiver. The foregoing description of the Waiver Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Waiver Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
