Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies		Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Company Overview Bird Rides, Inc. (“Bird,” the “Company,” “our,” and “we”) was incorporated in Delaware in April 2017, and is headquartered in Santa Monica, California. Bird is a micromobility company engaged in delivering electric transportation solutions for short distances. The Company partners with cities to bring lightweight, electric vehicles to residents and visitors in an effort to replace car trips by providing an alternative sustainable transportation option. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation T The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 included herein was derived from the audited annual consolidated financial statements as of that date. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for any future annual or interim period. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates, which are subject to significant judgment, including those related to useful lives associated with vehicles, impairment of other long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, and loss contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	Note 2 – Fair Value Measurements Recurring Fair Value Measurements GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market or, if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (referred to as the “exit price”). Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including consideration of nonperformance risk. The Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy indicates the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. • Level 1: Inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are observable. • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. • Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable to the extent that observable inputs are not available for the asset or liability at the measurement date and include management’s judgment about assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s Redeemable Convertible Senior Preferred Stock (“Senior Preferred Stock”) contains an embedded derivative which, consistent with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), is bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Senior Preferred Stock. In addition, when the Company issued the Senior Preferred Stock, it granted certain holders warrants (“Senior Preferred Warrants”) to purchase additional shares of Senior Preferred Stock (See Note 8). The bifurcated embedded derivative and warrant liabilities are initially recorded at issuance date fair value, and revalued at each fiscal quarter-end As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $142.8 million of level 3 financial instruments, comprised of $100.8 million of bifurcated embedded derivatives included in derivative liabilities and $41.9 million of warrant liabilities included in derivative liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $1.1 million of level 3 financial instruments, comprised of $0.6 million of current warrant liabilities included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.5 million of non-current warrant liabilities included in derivative liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Founders Preferred Stock automatically converts into Common Stock at the then-applicable conversion price in the event of (i) an underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock with aggregate proceeds of no less than $30.0 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, or the initial listing of the Company’s Common Stock on a national securities exchange by means of an effective registration statement on Form S-1 In addition, if a share of Founders Preferred Stock is purchased by an investor in connection with the Company signing a purchase agreement to sell and issue subsequent Preferred Stock of the Company for equity financing purposes in exchange for cash, conversion or cancellation of indebtedness, or a combination of cash, conversion, or cancellation of debt (“Equity Financing”), then the Founders Preferred Stock will also convert at the conversion ratio into shares of the series of Preferred Stock that the by the number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of Preferred Stock issued in relation to the Equity Financing is convertible.

Commitments and Contingencies	Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases A T Purchase Commitments The Company has commitments related to vehicles. These amounts are determined based on the non-cancelable Litigation and Indemnifications T The Company reviews the developments in contingencies that could affect the amount of the provisions that have been previously recorded. The Company adjusts provisions and changes to disclosures accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of loss. The Company is not a party to any outstanding material litigation and management is not currently aware of any legal proceedings that, individually or in the aggregate, are deemed to be material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, other than certain consolidated proceedings alleging that individuals who previously provided services as mechanics and chargers were misclassified as independent contractors in violation of the California Labor Code and wage laws. However, the outcome of litigation, indirect tax examinations and investigations are inherently uncertain. Therefore, if one or more of these matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, including in a reporting period in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable, could be materially adversely affected.
