Exhibit 10.2
Teradata EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
PLAN DOCUMENT
(As amended and restated as of September 1, 2026)
1.Purpose
The Teradata Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP” or “Plan”) provides Eligible Employees with an opportunity to purchase Teradata Common Stock through payroll deductions and is intended as an employment incentive and to encourage ownership of Teradata Common Stock to enable Eligible Employees to participate in the economic progress of Teradata Corporation (“Teradata”) during the term of the Plan.
The Company intends to have the Plan qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed so as to extend and limit participation in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Company may make Offerings under the Plan that are not intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Code to the extent deemed advisable for Designated Subsidiaries outside the United States (“Non-423 Component”). Furthermore, the Company may make separate Offerings under the Plan, each of which may have different terms, but each separate Offering will be intended to comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
This Plan was originally adopted effective as of September 30, 2007 and has since been amended from time to time, including on August 2, 2021 and on February 24, 2023 when the Board of Directors approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan and such amendment and restatement was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders. On May 13, 2026, the Plan was further amended and restated, in its entirety, effective as of September 1, 2026 as set forth below.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if any person entitled to purchase shares pursuant to any Offering hereunder would be deemed, for the purposes of Section 423(b)(3) of the Code, to own stock (including any number of shares which such person would be entitled to purchase hereunder and under any other similar plan or stock option plan of the Company, the parent of the Company or any Subsidiary) possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company, the parent of the Company or a Subsidiary, the maximum number of shares which such person shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to the Plan shall be reduced to that number which, when added to the number of shares of stock of the Company, the parent of the Company or a Subsidiary which such person is so deemed to own (excluding any number of shares which such person would be entitled to purchase hereunder), is one less than such 5% and any balance remaining in such person’s account to purchase shares of Teradata Common Stock under this Plan (“Stock Purchase Account”) shall be refunded.
5. Entry Into the Plan;Enrollment Agreements
Subject to any closed window trading period that may be in place, any Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan with respect to an Offering Period during the Plan’s Open Enrollment Period for that Offering Period by reviewing and acknowledging, via the Recordkeeper’s website, that they have received and agree to an enrollment agreement in the form set forth on the Recordkeeper’s website (the “Enrollment Agreement”) in accordance with procedures established by the Administrative Committee. Once an Eligible Employee has agreed to the Enrollment Agreement on the Recordkeeper’s website and becomes a Participant in the Plan, they shall remain a Participant until they withdraw from the Plan in accordance with Section 13 hereof, and they shall not be required to agree to another Enrollment Agreement for any succeeding Offering until they withdraw from the Plan.
6. Payment for Shares; Payroll Deductions
Payment for shares of Teradata Common Stock purchased hereunder shall be made by authorized payroll deductions from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to this Section. In their Enrollment Agreement, a Participant shall authorize a deduction from each payment of Compensation during an Offering Period of an amount equal to any full percentage of such payment; provided, however, that the minimum deduction shall be 1% and the maximum deduction shall be 10% of any payment of Compensation. Deductions may not be changed during the Offering Period unless the Participant withdraws from the Plan or stops future payroll deductions in accordance with Section 14 hereof. For purposes of the Plan, the employment relationship shall be treated as continuing intact while the individual is on an approved leave of absence for government or military service, sick leave, parental leave, garden leave, or for any other purpose approved by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary, if the individual’s right to continued employment during the approved leave (or to reemployment at the end of the approved leave) is guaranteed either by statute, by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted. A Participant on an unpaid leave of absence will remain a Participant in the Plan but no amounts will be credited to the Participant’s Stock Purchase Account during the time the Participant receives no Compensation.
4
7. Payroll Deductions
Amounts deducted from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to Section 6 hereof shall be recorded by the Company and applied to the purchase of Teradata Common Stock hereunder. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Participant with respect to any deducted amounts.
8. Purchase Price
The Purchase Price per share of the shares of Teradata Common Stock sold to Participants hereunder for any Offering shall be 85% of the lower of: (i) the Fair Market Value of Teradata Common Stock on the Offering Date, or (ii) the Fair Market Value of Teradata Common Stock on the Exercise Date. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Purchase Price per share shall not be less than the par value of a share of Teradata Common Stock.
9. Exchange Rate
The value of Shares acquired under the Plan may increase or decrease in value, even below the Purchase Price. The Company is not liable for any decrease in the value of Shares or any foreign exchange fluctuation between the Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar, or the selection by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign exchange rate.
10. Purchase of Shares; Limitation on Right to Purchase
As of each Exercise Date, each Participant shall be offered the right to purchase, and shall be deemed, without any further action, to have purchased, at the Purchase Price in United States dollars, the number of full shares of Teradata Common Stock which can be purchased with the amount credited to such Participant’s Stock Purchase Account. All such shares shall be maintained in Investment Accounts for the Participants. All dividends paid with respect to such shares shall be credited to the Participants’ Investment Accounts and will be automatically reinvested in shares of Teradata Common Stock, unless the Participant elects not to have such dividends reinvested and subject to applicable law. Any remaining balance in a Participant’s Stock Purchase Account not used to purchase full shares of Teradata Common Stock shall be credited to the Participants’ Investment Accounts with fractional shares. Such fractional shares shall be cashed out when a Participant closes their Investment Account in accordance with Section 23.
At the time a Participant’s payroll deduction amounts are used to purchase the Teradata Common Stock, they will have all of the rights and privileges of a stockholder of Teradata with respect to the shares purchased under the Plan.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) a Participant may not purchase more than 50,000 shares of Teradata Common Stock through this Plan in any Offering Period; and (ii) if at any time when any person is entitled to complete the purchase of any shares pursuant to the Plan, taking into account such person’s rights, if any, to purchase stock under all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company, its parent and of any Subsidiaries, the result would be that during the then current calendar year such person would have first become entitled to purchase under the Plan and all such other plans a number of shares of stock which would exceed the maximum number of shares permitted by the provisions of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, then the number of shares which such person shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to the Plan shall be reduced by the number which is one more than the number of shares which represents the excess, and any remaining balance of the Participant’s payroll deductions shall be refunded.

11. Expiration of Offering Period
As of each Exercise Date the amount of payroll deductions for each Participant in the applicable Offering Period shall be applied to purchase shares of Teradata Common Stock at the Purchase Price.

The shares of Teradata Common Stock purchased by a Participant on an Exercise Date shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have been issued and sold at the close of business on such Exercise Date. Prior to that time, none of the rights or privileges of a stockholder shall exist with respect to such shares.
As soon as practicable after such Exercise Date, the Company shall cause a book entry to be registered in the street name of the Recordkeeper on behalf of the Participants, for the number of shares of Teradata Common Stock purchased by the Participants on such Exercise Date, as designated in the Participant’s Enrollment Agreement.

Subject to any closed trading window that may be in place, the Participant may at any time direct the Recordkeeper to (i) sell some or all of the shares credited to their Investment Account and deliver the cash in U.S. currency to the Participant, subject to any applicable delivery or transfer charge or (ii) provide the Participant a notice of issuance of uncertificated shares reflecting some or all of the whole shares credited to their Investment Account. Shares credited to a Participant’s Investment Account shall not be transferred out of such Account during the two-year period following the Exercise Date unless: (a) sold pursuant to Section 13(i) above, (b) transferred due to death pursuant to Section 16, or (c) otherwise permitted in the sole discretion of the Administrative Committee.

Upon approval of a Participant’s withdrawal, no further payroll deductions will be made and all payroll withholdings prior to the withdrawal during the relevant Offering Period will be refunded to the Participant without interest through local payroll. No shares will be purchased on behalf of the Participant during that Offering Period. Partial withdrawals of payroll deductions may not be made. Any Participant who withdraws from the Plan may again at a later time become a Participant hereunder in accordance with Section 5 hereof.

Upon a Participant’s authorization to stop future payroll deductions, no further payroll deductions will be made and all payroll withholdings up to such time during the relevant Offering Period shall go toward the purchase of Teradata Common Stock on the next Exercise Date.
15. Termination of Continuous Service
If a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates for any reason prior to the last business day of an Offering Period (i.e.,prior to the Exercise Date for that Offering Period), the amount credited to their Stock Purchase Account as of the termination date shall be refunded without interest to the Participant through local payroll and no further payroll deductions will be made.
If a Participant’s termination date falls on or after the last business day of the Offering Period (i.e.,on or after the Exercise Date for that Offering Period), the Company will purchase stock on behalf of the Participant for that Offering Period and a refund of contributions will not be issued.

The Recordkeeper shall transfer the Participant’s Investment Account to the executor or administrator of the Participant’s estate. If no executor or administrator is appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company in its discretion may direct the Recordkeeper to transfer the Investment Account to the Participant’s spouse or to any one or more dependents of the Participant.
17. Procedure if Insufficient Shares Available
In the event that on any Exercise Date the aggregate funds available for the purchase of shares of Teradata Common Stock pursuant to Section 10 hereof would purchase a number of shares in excess of the number of shares then available for purchase under the Plan, the Administrative Committee shall proportionately reduce the number of shares which would otherwise be purchased by each Participant on such Exercise Date in order to eliminate such excess, the Plan shall automatically terminate immediately after such Exercise Date and any remaining balance credited to the Stock Purchase Account of each Participant shall be refunded to each such Participant.
18. Rights not Transferable
Rights to purchase shares under the Plan are exercisable only by the Participant during their lifetime and are not transferable by him other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

19. Administration of the Plan
Subject to the general control of, and superseding action by, the Committee, the Administrative Committee shall have full power to administer the Plan. It shall adopt rules not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan for its administration. It shall adopt the form of Enrollment Agreement, all notices required hereunder, and any on the registration of certificates for shares purchased hereunder.

20. Amendment of the Plan

21. Recapitalization; Effect of Certain Transactions
The aggregate number of shares of Teradata Common Stock reserved for purchase under the Plan as provided in Section 3 hereof, the maximum number of shares which a Participant may purchase in any Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof, and the calculation of the Purchase Price per share as provided in Section 8 hereof shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital adjustment, or the payment of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Teradata Common Stock, effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. If Teradata shall merge or consolidate, whether or not Teradata is the surviving or resulting corporation in such merger or consolidation, any Offering hereunder shall pertain to and apply to shares of stock of Teradata or any shares issued in connection with such merger or consolidation in exchange for shares of stock of Teradata, unless prior to such merger or consolidation, the Board of Directors of the Company shall, in its discretion, terminate the Plan and/or any Offering hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a dissolution or liquidation of Teradata shall cause the Plan and any Offering hereunder to terminate and the entire amount credited to the Stock Purchase Account of each Participant thereunder shall be paid to each such Participant.
22. Expiration and Termination of the Plan
The Plan shall continue in effect through September 1, 2032 unless terminated prior thereto pursuant to Section 17 or 21 hereof, or pursuant to the next succeeding sentence.

23. Treatment of Fractional Shares
For any amounts of payroll deductions that are insufficient to purchase a whole share, the Recordkeeper may determine whether its standard practice will be to credit the Participants’ Investment Accounts with fractional shares or with the insufficient cash amount that will be carried over and applied to the next Offering Period. If the Investment Accounts are credited with fractional shares, such fractional shares shall be cashed out when a Participant closes their Investment Account.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event authorized payroll deductions from a Participant’s Compensation are not permitted by reason of the provisions of local law applicable to the Company or a Designated Subsidiary, or are not practicable in the opinion of the Administrative Committee, the appropriate alternative method pursuant to which affected Participants may make payment for shares of Teradata Common Stock purchased hereunder which would otherwise have been made pursuant to Section 6 hereof shall be designated by the Administrative Committee. Payments made hereunder shall be deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 6 hereof.
