Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On July 24, 2019, Arianna Huffington informed the Company of her intention to resign as a member of its board of directors, effective as of July 24, 2019.

In a note to the Board regarding Ms. Huffington’s departure, Ron Sugar, the Company’s independent chairperson of the board, stated: “Arianna has been a dynamic and invaluable board member and we are grateful for her service. I understand her decision to devote more of her energy to Thrive Global, and we remain excited to watch her continued progress.”

Ms. Huffington stated: “Given Thrive’s growth, it has become clear to me that I will no longer be able to give my Uber board duties the attention they deserve, so I will be stepping down. It has been an unforgettable three-year ride, and I’m grateful to have been able to work alongside my fellow board members and witness the incredible work of thousands of Uber employees around the world.”

Ms. Huffington’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement between Ms. Huffington and the Company, its management, board of directors or any committee thereof, or with respect to any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
