SoftBank Group agrees to block any attempts to elevate Travis Kalanick, Uber’s controversial former leader, back to the company’s top ranks. It has overcome a major obstacle to its planned multibillion-dollar investment in Uber Technologies.

Reject Reappointing of Karnick

Funding firm Benchmark, which drove Kalanick’s ouster in June, has looked for a certification in composing from SoftBank that it would dismiss reappointing Kalanick as CEO and block his appointment as an executive of the board or head of one of its subcommittees.

Expected to Invest $1billion in Uber

SoftBank and speculation firms General Atlantic and Dragoneer Investment Group are still in dynamic converses with Uber. Together, the organizations hope to put at any rate $1 billion in Uber at a $69 billion valuation, while purchasing as much as $9 billion in shares from existing financial specialists. The valuation of those offers will be controlled by a bartering procedure that is relied upon to begin at about $45 billion.

Softbank asks for Two Board Seats

Softbank has asked for two board seats as a part of the deal, and has mulled one of its executives, Rajeev Misra and Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure as candidates.

Another proposition being talked about would give SoftBank one board seat and a board observer seat. Under either proposition, it’s misty whether Uber would make new chiefs or rearrange its current eleven board seats.
