Material Agreement Form 8 K

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 26, 2024, Uber Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the lenders party thereto, the letter of credit issuers party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement replaces the Company's existing Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2015, among the Company, certain subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent (as amended to date, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), which was terminated effective September 26, 2024.

The Credit Agreement provides for $5.0 billion in aggregate amount of commitments for senior unsecured revolving loans, which will mature on September 26, 2029 unless otherwise extended in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides that the Company may obtain, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, loans in U.S. Dollars or certain alternate currencies. Proceeds from any borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement is unsecured and is not guaranteed by any subsidiary of the Company.

Loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the option of the Company, at either the term SOFR rate (determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement) plus an initial margin of 1.00% per annum or the base rate (determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement) plus an initial margin of 0.00% per annum. The Credit Agreement has a commitment fee, which will initially accrue at a rate of 0.125% per annum, on the actual daily undrawn amount of the aggregate commitments of the lenders in respect to the Credit Agreement. The applicable margin over the term SOFR rate and the base rate, as well as the commitment fee, will fluctuate based upon the ratings of the Company's non-credit enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt by Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC, Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch Ratings Ltd.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Negative covenants include, among others, certain limitations on the incurrence of liens securing indebtedness by the Company and its material subsidiaries and the incurrence of indebtedness by the Company's material subsidiaries. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain a ratio of consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to consolidated interest expense of not less than 3.00 to 1.00, as more fully described in the Credit Agreement. The following events are considered "events of default" under the Credit Agreement: default in the payment of principal of any loan or any letter of credit obligation; default in the payment of any interest on any loan or on any letter of credit obligation, any fee due or any other amount payable thereunder and such default continues for a period of five business days; failure to comply with specified covenants; material misrepresentations; certain defaults by the Company or any of the Company's material subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money in an amount exceeding $300 million; certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, any of the Company's material subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or any of the Company's significant subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement); certain judgment defaults against the Company or any of the Company's material subsidiaries in an amount exceeding $300 million; the occurrence of certain ERISA events; and the occurrence of any change of control (as defined in the Credit Agreement). If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments may be terminated. If an event of default, other than certain bankruptcy insolvency-related events of default, occur and are not cured within applicable grace periods or waived, any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments may be terminated.

At closing, approximately $413 million of letters of credit have been issued under the Credit Agreement, transitioned from outstanding letters of credit under the Existing Credit Agreement, but no borrowings have been drawn.

The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
