Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The information set forth in Items 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Person may engage in discussions, including, without limitation, through Mr. Khosrowshahi (including in the course of his service as a director), with management of the Issuer, the Board, other shareholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties concerning the business, operations, board composition, management, strategy or control and future plans of the Issuer that could result in or relate to, among other things, any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Subject to the foregoing and except as described in this Schedule 13D, neither the Reporting Person nor, to its best knowledge, its directors or executive officers, has any present plan or proposal which relates to, or would result in, any of the events referred to in paragraphs (a) though (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

In March 2018, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Reporting Person signed and closed an agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Grab Holdings Inc.

In exchange for contributing Uber’s operations in Southeast Asia to Grab, affiliates of Uber received approximately 401 million shares of Grab Series G preferred stock on the closing date of the transaction and approximately 8 million additional shares of Grab Series G preferred stock during 2018 related to the resolution of certain post-close contingencies, for a total of approximately 409 million shares.

Upon the completion of the transactions on the SPAC Closing Date, the Reporting Person’s investment in Series G preferred shares of Grab converted into the newly issued Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Reporting Person received 535,902,982 Class A ordinary shares.
