Grab announces updates regarding its directors and officers and
date for 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders

Grab Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: GRAB) (“Grab” or the “Company”), Southeast Asia’s leading superapp, today announces certain changes to its directors and officers and date for its 2023 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”).

Changes to Directors and Officers

Further to Grab’s announcement of May 25, 2023, Grab announces that its co-founder Tan Hooi Ling will formally step down from her role on Grab’s Board of Directors with effect from December 31, 2023. Ms. Tan has entered into an advisory agreement with Grab pursuant to which she has agreed to remain as an advisor to Grab for an initial period of two years commencing from January 1, 2024, subject to renewal upon mutual agreement. Ms. Tan has also entered into a non-compete arrangement contemporaneous with the term of the advisory agreement, and a lock-up agreement pursuant to which she has agreed not to sell more than 50% of her shareholding (assuming all equity to which she is entitled has vested and all unexercised options have been exercised) prior to January 1, 2025. Any sales by Ms. Tan remain subject to the terms of the ROFO Agreement (as defined in Grab’s registration statement on Form F-4 dated November 19, 2021). Grab looks forward to continuing to benefit from Ms. Tan’s experience and advice in her capacity as an advisor.

Grab is pleased to announce that Chin Yin Ong will assume Ms. Tan’s role on the Board of Directors with effect from January 1, 2024. Ms. Ong has served as Chief People Officer since November 2015, and leads the People Operations, Grabber Technology Solutions, Corporate Real Estate and Security teams at Grab. Further details regarding Ms. Ong can be found in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F dated April 26, 2023. Grab is also announcing that it will be expanding its Board of Directors to seven members and is actively engaged in identifying an additional independent director for its Board.

Ming Maa has informed the Company that he intends to step down from Grab at the end of April 2024 to devote more time to family matters in the United States and other interests. In the interim, he will step down from his role as President to focus on his responsibilities for Grab’s corporate development activities. Grab does not intend to replace Mr. Maa’s role as President, with his responsibilities to be assumed by other members of Grab’s senior management team.

The Company expresses its deepest appreciation to Mr. Maa for his contributions and leadership since joining in September 2016, including on transformational transactions such as Grab’s merger with Uber’s Southeast Asia operations in 2018 and Grab’s public listing on the Nasdaq in 2021.

2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders

Grab today also announced that it will hold its 2023 AGM on Friday, December 8, 2023 at 9:00 a.m. Singapore Time at Grab's Global Headquarters located at 3 Media Close, Level 2, Singapore 138498.

No proposal will be submitted to shareholders for approval at the AGM. Instead, the AGM will serve as an open forum for shareholders of record to discuss Company affairs with management.

The Board of Directors of the Company has fixed the close of business on November 17, 2023, Eastern Time, as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining the shareholders entitled to attend the AGM or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Holders of record of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares or Class B ordinary shares, each with a par value of US$0.000001 per share, at the close of business, Eastern Time, on the Record Date are entitled to attend the AGM and any adjournment or postponement thereof in person.
