On July 1, 2020, the Board of Directors
(the “Board”) of Uber Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Revathi Advaithi to the Board as an
independent director.
“Revathi has a stellar track
record at innovative, global companies and shares our philosophy on strong corporate governance,” said Ron Sugar, independent
Chairperson of the Board. “We welcome her unique perspective and I believe her contributions will be invaluable.”
“Revathi’s engineering
background and years of experience leading highly complex, global technology companies will be a great asset as we continue to
grow the power and scope of the Uber platform,” said Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO. “I look forward to working with her.”
“I am very excited to join Uber
as the company continues to transform through innovative technology and improving access for people and economies around the world,”
said Revathi Advaithi. “I am looking forward to working with the entire Uber Board as the company embarks on its next chapter
of innovation and growth.”
Ms.
Advaithi, 52, has been Chief Executive Officer of Flex Ltd., a manufacturer that delivers
technology innovation, supply chain, and manufacturing solutions to diverse industries and end markets, since February 2019. Prior
to joining Flex, Ms. Advaithi was President and Chief Operating Officer, Electrical Sector, of Eaton Corporation plc, a power management
company, a position she held from September 1, 2015. Prior to that role, she served as President of Electrical Sector, Americas
of Eaton from April 2012 through August 2015. She joined Eaton in 1995 and led the Electrical Sector in the Americas and Asia-Pacific,
with a three-year assignment in Shanghai. Between 2002 and 2008, Ms. Advaithi worked at Honeywell, where she held several senior
roles within the sourcing and supply chain functions of the aerospace sector before being named vice president and general manager
of Honeywell’s Field Solutions business in 2006. Ms. Advaithi returned to Eaton in 2008 as vice president and general manager
of the Electrical Components Division. Ms. Advaithi currently serves as a director of Flex Ltd. Ms. Advaithi previously served
as a non-executive director for the BAE Systems board.
Ms. Advaithi was
selected to serve on the Board due to her leadership experience as a chief executive officer of a large global technology company

to serve on the Audit Committee.
Ms. Advaithi will participate in the

value of $250,000, prorated for her partial year of service. She is also entitled to a cash retainer in connection with her service
on the Audit Committee.
There is no arrangement between Ms.
Advaithi and any person pursuant to which she was selected as director. Ms. Advaithi has no direct or indirect material interest
in any existing or currently proposed transaction that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
