Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this registration statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) shall also cover any additional shares of the Class A common stock, $0.00000625 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Zynga Inc. (“Zynga” or the “Registrant”) that become issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Zynga Inc. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated on August 21, 2018 (the “2011 Plan”), and/or the Zynga Inc. 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended on August 15, 2012 (the “2011 ESPP”), by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar transaction that affects the Class A Common Stock.

(2)

Represents the sum of 38,001,696 shares of Class A Common Stock and 43,262,873 shares of Class A Common Stock that were automatically added to the reserve of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 Plan on January 1, 2020 and on January 1, 2021, respectively, pursuant to the “evergreen” provision contained in the 2011 Plan. Pursuant to such provision, on January 1st of each year commencing in 2012 and continuing through and including January 1, 2021, the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 Plan is automatically increased by four percent (4%) of the aggregate number of shares of Zynga’s capital stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year, or such lesser number of shares that may be determined by Zynga’s Board of Directors prior to such January 1st.

(3)

Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) of the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee based on a per share price of $10.27, the average of the high and low prices of the Class A Common Stock on May 5, 2021, as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

(4)

Represents the sum of 19,000,848 shares of Class A Common Stock and 21,631,436 shares of Class A Common Stock that were automatically added to the reserve of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 ESPP on January 1, 2020 and on January 1, 2021, respectively, pursuant to the “evergreen” provision contained in the 2011 ESPP. Pursuant to such provision, on January 1st of each year commencing in 2012 and continuing through and including January 1, 2021, the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 ESPP is automatically increased by the least of (i) two percent (2%) of the aggregate number of shares of Zynga’s capital stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year, (ii) 25,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, or (iii) such lesser number of shares that may be determined by Zynga’s Board of Directors prior to such January 1st.

(5)

Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) of the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee based on a per share price of $8.73, which is 85% of the average of the high and low prices of the Class A Common Stock on May 5, 2021, as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Pursuant to the 2011 ESPP, which plan is incorporated by reference herein, the purchase price of the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued thereunder will be 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the first trading day of the offering period or on the applicable purchase date.
