Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Uber Technologies, Inc. entered into a new senior unsecured term loan credit agreement and a replacement revolving credit facility to support its previously announced voluntary takeover offer for Delivery Hero SE and general corporate purposes. The new term loan facility, arranged with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding as administrative agent, is split into Tranche A loans maturing 18 months after the Closing Date and Tranche B loans maturing three years after the Closing Date. Establishing this facility reduced commitments under Uber’s existing bridge credit agreement by €4,000,000,000. Term loan borrowings will bear interest at EURIBOR plus a margin that varies with Uber’s long‑term unsecured debt ratings and will be subject to a commitment fee beginning November 13, 2026.

Uber also entered into a new unsecured revolving credit agreement providing $7.7 billion in total commitments for revolving loans and letters of credit maturing on August 6, 2031, replacing and terminating its prior revolving facility. Borrowings can be made in U.S. dollars and certain other currencies and will bear interest at either a term SOFR‑based rate or a base rate (or an alternative currency benchmark), in each case plus a ratings‑based margin, with a commitment fee on undrawn amounts. Both the term loan and revolving agreements include customary covenants and events of default, including limits on additional secured debt and subsidiary borrowings, minimum interest coverage of at least 3.00 to 1.00, and cross‑default and judgment default thresholds of $500 million. At closing, approximately $324 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the new revolver, with no cash borrowings drawn.

Filing Explained

The bridge amendment changes a default trigger from cross-default to cross-payment and raises its threshold from $300 million to $500 million.

On August 6, 2026, Uber amended its bridge credit agreement, changing a contractual default trigger from a cross-default to a cross-payment default and acceleration event.

The threshold for that specified bridge-agreement trigger increased from $300 million to $500 million; the filing describes a contract amendment, not a reported default. The term loan agreement separately treats Uber ceasing to own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the Delivery Hero bidder as an event of default; under the agreement's stated mechanics, such a default may allow outstanding obligations to be accelerated and commitments terminated.

Term Loan Credit Agreement financial
"On August 6, 2026, Uber Technologies, Inc. entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement"
A term loan credit agreement is a formal contract where a borrower receives a fixed sum of money from a lender and agrees to repay it over a set period with interest, much like a multi‑year mortgage or car loan for a business. It matters to investors because the size, cost and rules of the loan affect a company’s cash flow, risk of default and ability to invest or pay dividends; restrictive conditions can also force operational changes.
Bridge Credit Agreement financial
"Amendment No. 1 to the Bridge Credit Agreement, dated as of July 16, 2026"
Revolving Credit Agreement financial
"The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for $7.7 billion in aggregate amount of commitments"
A revolving credit agreement is a flexible loan arrangement where a borrower can borrow, repay, and borrow again up to a set limit, similar to a credit card. It matters because it gives businesses or individuals quick access to funds whenever needed, helping manage cash flow and cover expenses without applying for a new loan each time.
consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization financial
"requires that the Company maintain a ratio of consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization"
term SOFR rate financial
"Loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the option of the Company, at either the term SOFR rate"
Term SOFR rate is a forward-looking interest rate for a set period (for example one or three months) based on the overnight cost of borrowing cash using Treasury securities as collateral. Think of it as a quoted, agreed-upon lending rate for a future interval, like locking in the expected short-term borrowing cost ahead of time. Investors care because it is used to price loans, bonds and derivatives as a transparent replacement for older benchmarks, affecting interest payments and valuation.
change of control event financial
"the occurrence of certain change of control event"

Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Term Loan Credit Agreement

 

On August 6, 2026, Uber Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent. The Term Loan Credit Agreement was entered into in connection with the previously disclosed Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 16, 2026, by and among the Company, Uber International Technologies II Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Bidder”), and Delivery Hero SE, a European Company (Societas Europaea) incorporated under German law (“Delivery Hero”), pursuant to which the Bidder agreed to make a voluntary public takeover offer (the “Offer”) for the shares of Delivery Hero. The entry into the Term Loan Credit Agreement reduced the commitments under the Bridge Credit Agreement (as defined below) by €4,000,000,000.

 

The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for senior unsecured term loan commitments in two tranches: Tranche A term loans, which will mature on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement), and Tranche B term loans, which will mature on the date that is three (3) years after the Closing Date. The proceeds of any loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will be used to finance the Offer, to provide funding for related transactions, to refinance certain indebtedness of Delivery Hero and for the payment of related transaction costs. The Term Loan Credit Agreement is unsecured and is not guaranteed by any subsidiary of the Company.

 

Loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will bear interest at EURIBOR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin will fluctuate based upon the ratings of the Company’s non-credit-enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch Ratings Ltd. (the “Debt Rating”). The Term Loan Credit Agreement also provides for a commitment fee, commencing on November 13, 2026 until the termination of the aggregate commitments, accruing at a rate determined by reference to the Debt Rating.

 

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Negative covenants include, among others, certain limitations on the incurrence of liens securing indebtedness by the Company and its material subsidiaries and the incurrence of indebtedness by its material subsidiaries. In addition, the Term Loan Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain a ratio of consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to consolidated interest expense of not less than 3.00 to 1.00, as more fully described in the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Term Loan Credit Agreement: default in the payment of principal of any loan; default in the payment of any interest on any loan, any fee due or any other amount payable thereunder and such default continues for a period of five business days; failure to comply with specified covenants; material misrepresentations; certain defaults by the Company or any of its material subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money in an amount exceeding $500 million; certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries; certain judgment defaults against the Company or any of the Company’s Material Subsidiaries in an amount exceeding $500 million; the occurrence of certain ERISA events; the occurrence of certain change of control event; and the Company ceasing to own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the equity interests of the Bidder. If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur, any outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will automatically become due and payable and the commitments will automatically be terminated. If an event of default, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default, occurs and is not cured within applicable grace periods or waived, any outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments may be terminated.

Amendment No. 1 amends the Bridge Credit Agreement to, among other things, remove certain representations and warranties, replace the cross-default event of default with a cross-payment default and acceleration event of default and increase the threshold amount related thereto from $300 million to $500 million.

Revolving Credit Agreement

 

On August 6, 2026, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, the letter of credit issuers party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Revolving Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s existing Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of September 26, 2024, among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as the administrative agent (the “Existing Revolving Credit Agreement”), which was terminated effective August 6, 2026.

 

The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for $7.7 billion in aggregate amount of commitments for senior unsecured revolving loans, which will mature on August 6, 2031 unless otherwise extended in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides that the Company may obtain, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, loans in U.S. Dollars or certain alternate currencies. Proceeds from any borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes. The Revolving Credit Agreement is unsecured and is not guaranteed by any subsidiary of the Company.

 

Loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the option of the Company, at either the term SOFR rate (determined in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin or the base rate (determined in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin. Loans denominated in alternative currencies will bear interest at the applicable alternative currency rate plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Credit Agreement has a commitment fee, which will accrue on the actual daily undrawn amount of the aggregate commitments of the lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The applicable margin over the term SOFR rate and the base rate, as well as the commitment fee, will fluctuate based upon the Debt Rating.

 

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Negative covenants include, among others, certain limitations on the incurrence of liens securing indebtedness by the Company and its material subsidiaries and the incurrence of indebtedness by its material subsidiaries. In addition, the Revolving Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain a ratio of consolidated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to consolidated interest expense of not less than 3.00 to 1.00, as more fully described in the Revolving Credit Agreement. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Revolving Credit Agreement: default in the payment of principal of any loan or any letter of credit obligation; default in the payment of any interest on any loan or on any letter of credit obligation, any fee due or any other amount payable thereunder and such default continues for a period of five business days; failure to comply with specified covenants; material misrepresentations; certain defaults by the Company or any of its material subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money in an amount exceeding $500 million; certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries; certain judgment defaults against the Company or any of its material subsidiaries in an amount exceeding $500 million; the occurrence of certain ERISA events; and the occurrence of certain change of control event. If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur, any outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement will automatically become due and payable and the commitments will automatically be terminated. If an event of default, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default, occurs and is not cured within applicable grace periods or waived, any outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments may be terminated.

 

 

 

At closing, approximately $324 million of letters of credit have been issued under the Revolving Credit Agreement, transitioned from outstanding letters of credit under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement, but no borrowings have been drawn.
