EXPLANATORY NOTE

2017 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) of Roku, Inc. (“Roku”) provides that the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan will automatically increase on January 1st of each calendar year, from January 1, 2018 to January 1, 2027, in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of Roku’s capital stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding year, or a lesser number of shares determined by Roku’s Board of Directors. Accordingly, on January 1, 2018, the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options under the 2017 Plan increased by an additional 4,957,835 shares (or 5% of the outstanding shares of Roku’s capital stock as of December 31, 2017). In addition, following the execution of the underwriting agreement in connection with our initial public offering, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan will be increased by the number of shares subject to options that expired or terminated under our 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. As a result, the shares reserved under the 2017 Plan increased by an additional 757,252 shares.

2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2017 ESPP”) of Roku provides that the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 ESPP will automatically increase on January 1st of each calendar year, from January 1, 2018 to January 1, 2027, by the lesser of (1) 1% of the total number of shares of Roku’s capital stock outstanding on the last day of the calendar month prior to the date of the automatic increase, and (2) 3,000,000 shares; provided that prior to the date of any such increase, Roku’s Board of Directors may determine that such increase will be less than the amount set forth in clauses (1) and (2). Accordingly, on January 1, 2018, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved under the 2017 ESPP increased by an additional 991,567 shares (or 1% of the outstanding shares of Roku’s capital stock as of December 31, 2017).

These additional shares of Class A common stock are securities of the same class as other securities for which the Registration Statement on Forms S-8 (File No. 333-220701) (“Prior Form S-8”) was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) on September 28, 2017.
