UBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC FILES (8-K) Disclosing Other Events

Edgar Glimpses

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On September 27, 2021, Aleka Insurance, Inc. ("Aleka"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Uber Technologies, Inc. ("Uber"), entered into a Loss Portfolio
Transfer Reinsurance Agreement (the "LPTA") with James River Insurance Company
and James River Casualty Company, both wholly-owned subsidiaries of James River
Group Holdings, Ltd. ("James River").

Pursuant to the LPTA, Aleka will reinsure certain automobile liability insurance
risks relating to activity on the Uber platform between 2013 and 2019 in
exchange for payment by James River to Aleka of a premium in the amount of
approximately $345.1 million ("Premium"). In connection with the LPTA, claims
currently administered by James River will be transferred to a third-party
claims administrator for ongoing handling. Uber expects to record expenses
associated with this transaction in the third quarter of 2021, which will be
excluded from the quarter's Adjusted EBITDA. The Premium and assets presented as
Collateral Held by Insurer on Uber's consolidated balance sheet as of June 30,
2021
will be deposited into trusts and presented as restricted cash, with an
associated benefit to cash flows from operations in the third quarter of 2021.

expectations which involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ
materially from the results predicted, and reported results should not be

statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that
may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other
factors relate to, among others: the outcome of a tax case before the UK tax

performance, investments in new products or offerings, our ability to attract
drivers, consumers and other partners to our platform, our brand and reputation
and other legal and regulatory developments, particularly with respect to our
