On January 7,

announced that it entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement"), by and among SCH, Plutus Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned
subsidiary of SCH ("Merger Sub"), and Social Finance, Inc., a

(the "Closing"), SCH will domesticate as a Delaware corporation in accordance with Section 388 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, as amended (the "DGCL"), and the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2020 Revision) (the "Domestication"),
(ii) at the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, in accordance with the DGCL, Merger
Sub will merge with and into SoFi, with SoFi continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SCH (the
"Merger"), (iii) upon consummation of the Merger, and subject to the
adjustments provided in the Merger Agreement, all of the common stock and preferred stock of SoFi, excluding the Company Redeemable
Preferred Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement), which will convert into Acquiror Series 1 Preferred Stock (as defined in
the Merger Agreement), will be converted into the right to receive an aggregate number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001
per share, of SCH (after the Domestication) ("SCH Common Stock") equal
to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $6,569,840,376 by (y) $10.00 and (iv) upon the consummation of the Merger, SCH will be
renamed "SoFi Technologies, Inc." The Closing is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions
contained in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of SCH's shareholders.
On
January 7, 2021, SCH also announced that, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, it entered into subscription
agreements (the "Subscription Agreements") with certain investors (collectively, the "PIPE Investors")
pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein, the PIPE Investors have collectively subscribed for 122,500,000
shares of SCH Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price equal to $1,225,000,000 (the "PIPE Investment"), a
portion of which is expected to be funded by one or more affiliates of SCH Sponsor V LLC, SCH's sponsor (the "Sponsor").
The PIPE Investment will be consummated substantially concurrently with the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated
by the Subscription Agreements.
On
January 7, 2021, SCH also entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement (the "Sponsor
Support Agreement"), by and among SCH, the Sponsor, certain directors and officers of SCH and SoFi, pursuant to
which the Sponsor and each director and officer of SCH agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and
the transactions contemplated thereby and not to redeem their shares in SCH in connection therewith, in each case, subject to the
terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement. In addition, SCH has entered into a Stockholder Support Agreement
(the "Stockholder Support Agreement") by and among SCH, SoFi and certain stockholders of SoFi (the "Key
Stockholders"), pursuant to which the Key Stockholders have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Stockholder
Support Agreement.
On January 7,
2021, SCH also entered into an Amended and Restated Series 1 Preferred Stock Investors’ Agreement (the "Series
1 Investors’ Agreement"), by and among SCH, SoFi and the investors party thereto (the "Investors"), pursuant to which, among other things, SCH will assume the obligations of SoFi in respect of Acquiror Series 1 Preferred
Stock to the Investors at the effective time of the Merger.
A copy of the Merger
Agreement, the form of the Subscription Agreements, the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Stockholder Support Agreement and the Series
1 Investors’ Agreement will be filed by amendment on Form 8-K/A to this Current Report within four business days of the date
hereof as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, and the foregoing description of each of the Merger Agreement,

Act"), or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference

contained in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3.
Additional Information and Where to Find
It
This Current Report on Form 8-K relates
to a proposed transaction between SoFi and SCH. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or exchange,
or the solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction
in which such offer, sale or exchange would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any
such jurisdiction. SCH intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC, which will include a document that serves
as a prospectus and proxy statement of SCH, referred to as a proxy statement/prospectus. A proxy statement/prospectus will be
sent to all SCH shareholders. SCH also will file other documents regarding the proposed transaction with the SEC. Before making
any voting decision, investors and security holders of SCH are urged to read the registration statement, the proxy statement/prospectus
and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction as they
become available because they will contain important information about the proposed transaction.
Investors and security
holders will be able to obtain free copies of the registration statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant
documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by SCH through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.
The documents filed by
SCH with the SEC also may be obtained free of charge at SCH’s website at http://www.socialcapitalhedosophiaholdings.com/docse.html
or upon written request to 317 University Ave, Suite 200, Palo Alto, California 94301.
Participants in Solicitation
SCH and SoFi and their
respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from SCH’s shareholders
in connection with the proposed transaction. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding
their interests in the business combination will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus when available. You may obtain
free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraph.
Cautionary Statement Forward-Looking
Statements
This
Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect
to the proposed transaction between SoFi and SCH. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,”
“project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,”
“future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,”
“would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations
and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction
may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of SCH’s securities, (ii) the risk
that the transaction may not be completed by SCH’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension
of the business combination deadline if sought by SCH, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction,
including the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the shareholders of SCH, the satisfaction of the minimum trust account amount
following redemptions by SCH’s public shareholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (iv)
the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the proposed transaction, (v) the inability to complete
the PIPE Investment, (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of
the Merger Agreement, (vii) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on SoFi’s business relationships,
operating results, and business generally, (viii) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations of
SoFi and potential difficulties in SoFi employee retention as a result of the transaction, (ix) the outcome of any legal proceedings
that may be instituted against SoFi or against SCH related to the Merger Agreement or the proposed transaction, (x) the ability
to maintain the listing of SCH’s securities on a national securities exchange, (xi) the price of SCH’s securities may
be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which SCH plans
to operate or SoFi operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting
SCH’s or SoFi’s business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xii) the ability to implement business plans,
forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities,
and (xiii) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry. The foregoing list of
factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described
in the “Risk Factors” section of SCH’s registration on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-248915 and 333-249396), the registration
statement on Form S-4 discussed above and other documents filed by SCH from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and
address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained
in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not
to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and SoFi and SCH assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise
these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither SoFi nor SCH gives
any assurance that either SoFi or SCH, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
