All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this presentation (this "Presentation") are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may generally be identified by the use of words such as
"believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "should," "would," "plan," "project," "forecast," "predict," "potential," "seem," "seek," "future," "outlook," "target" or other similar expressions that predict or
indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of other financial and performance
metrics, projections of market opportunity and market share. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Presentation, and on the current expectations of the management of Bird Rides,
Inc. ("Bird" or the "Company") and Switchback II Corporation ("Switchback") and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to
serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may differ from
assumptions, and such differences may be material. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Bird and Switchback. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed business combination between Bird and
Switchback and related transactions (the "Proposed Business Combination"), including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely
affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Proposed Business Combination or that the approval of the shareholders of Switchback or the stockholders of Bird is not obtained; the failure to realize the anticipated
benefits of the Proposed Business Combination; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Bird; risks related to the rollout of Bird's business and the timing of expected business
milestones; the effects of competition on Bird's business; the amount of redemption requests made by Switchback's public shareholders; the ability of Switchback or the combined company to issue equity or equity-linked
securities or obtain debt financing in connection with the Proposed Business Combination or in the future; and those factors discussed in Switchback's final prospectus dated January 7, 2021 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, under the heading "Risk Factors," and other documents of Switchback filed, or to be filed, with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), or to be filed by Bird Global, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Bird ("Bird Holdings") with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or Switchback's or Bird's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by
these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Switchback nor Bird presently know or that Switchback and Bird currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those
contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Switchback's and Bird's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Presentation. Switchback and
Bird anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Switchback's and Bird's assessments to change. However, while Switchback and Bird may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the
future, Switchback and Bird specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Switchback's and Bird's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of
this Presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Neither Bird, Switchback, Bird Holdings nor any of their respective affiliates have any obligation to update this Presentation.
