Notice regarding Fund Information contained in this Presentation
This presentation is furnished to you for informational purposes and is not, and may not be relied on in any manner as, legal, tax, investment, accounting or other advice or as an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy limited partnership or comparable limited liability
equity interests in any fund managed by a subsidiary of SBG, including SB Investment Advisers (UK) Ltd.("SBIA"), SBLA Advisers Corp. ("SBLA") and any of their respective affiliates (collectively, the "SB Fund Managers" and each an "SB Fund Manager") (such funds
together with, as the context may require, any parallel fund, feeder fund, co-investment vehicle or alternative investment vehicle collectively, the "SB Funds" and each an "SB Fund"). For the avoidance of doubt, the SB Funds include, among other funds, SoftBank Vision
Fund L.P. (together with, as the context may require, any parallel fund, feeder fund, co-investment vehicle or alternative investment vehicle, the "Vision Fund I" or "SVF1"), and SoftBank Vision Fund II-2 L.P. (together with, as the context may require, any parallel fund,
feeder fund, co-investment vehicle or alternative investment vehicle, the "Vision Fund II" or "SVF2"), which are managed by SBIA and its affiliates, SoftBank Latin America Fund L.P. (together with, as the context may require, any parallel fund, feeder fund, co-investment
vehicle or alternative investment vehicle, the "SoftBank Latin America Fund" or "LatAm Fund"), which is managed by SBLA and its affiliates.
None of the SB Funds (including the Vision Fund I, Vision Fund II and SoftBank Latin America Fund), the SB Fund Managers (including SBIA and SBLA), any successor or future fund managed by a SB Fund Manager, SBG or their respective affiliates makes any
representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained herein and nothing contained herein should be relied upon as a promise or representation as to past or future performance of the SB Funds or any other entity
referenced in this presentation, or future performance of any successor or the future fund managed by a SB Fund Manager.
Information relating to the performance of the SB Funds or any other entity referenced in this presentation has been included for background purposes only and should not be considered an indication of the future performance of the relevant SB Fund, any other entity
referenced in this presentation or any future fund managed by an SB Fund Manager. References to any specific investments of an SB Fund, to the extent included therein, are presented to illustrate the relevant SB Fund Manager's investment process and operating
philosophy only and should not be construed as a recommendation of any particular investment or security. The investment performance of individual investments of an SB Fund may vary and the performance of the selected transactions is not necessarily indicative of the
performance of all of the applicable prior investments. The specific investments identified and described in this presentation do not represent all of the investments made by the relevant SB Fund Manager, and no assumption should be made that investments identified and
discussed therein were or will be profitable.
The performance of an SB Fund in this presentation is based on unrealized valuations of portfolio investments. Valuations of unrealized investments are based on assumptions and factors (including, for example, as of the date of the valuation, average multiples of
comparable companies, and other considerations) that the relevant SB Fund Manager believes are reasonable under the circumstances relating to each particular investment. However, there can be no assurance that unrealized investments will be realized at the valuations
indicated in this presentation or used to calculate the returns contained therein, and transaction costs connected with such realizations remain unknown and, therefore, are not factored into such calculations. Estimates of unrealized value are subject to numerous variables
that change over time. The actual realized returns on the relevant SB Fund's unrealized investments will depend on, among other factors, future operating results, the value of the assets and market conditions at the time of disposition, any related transaction costs and the
timing and manner of sale, all of which may differ from the assumptions and circumstances on which the relevant SB Fund Manager's valuations are based.
Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. The performance of an SB Fund or any future fund managed by an SB Fund Manager may be materially lower than the performance information presented in this presentation. There can be no assurance that
each SB Fund or any future fund managed by the relevant SB Fund Manager will achieve comparable results as those presented therein.
The actual realized return on unrealized investments by an SB Fund may differ materially from the performance information indicated in this presentation. No assumption should be made that investments identified and discussed in this presentation were or will be profitable,
or that investments made in the future will be comparable in quality or performance to the investments described therein.
Third-party logos and vendor information included in this presentation are provided for illustrative purposes only. Inclusion of such logos does not imply affiliation with or endorsement by such firms or businesses. There is no guarantee that an SB Fund Manager, an SB
Fund's portfolio companies, any future portfolio companies of a future fund managed by an SB Fund Manager or SBG will work with any of the firms or businesses whose logos are included in this presentation in the future.
SBIA and SBLA manage separate and independent operations and processes from each other and those of SBG and any SB Funds managed by SBIA or SBLA are solely managed by SBIA or SBLA respectively.View entire presentation
