PRELIMINARY—SUBJECT TO COMPLETION—DATED NOVEMBER 12, 2021

            , 2021

On July 28, 2021, Swvl Inc., a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Swvl” or the “Company”), and Queen’s Gambit Growth Capital, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“SPAC”), entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, SPAC, Pivotal Holdings Corp, a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdings”), Pivotal Merger Sub Company I, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Cayman Merger Sub”), and Pivotal Merger Sub Company II Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and wholly owned subsidiary of SPAC (“BVI Merger Sub”).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, (a) SPAC will merge with and into Cayman Merger Sub (the “SPAC Merger”), with Cayman Merger Sub surviving the SPAC Merger (Cayman Merger Sub, in its capacity as the surviving company of the SPAC Merger, the “SPAC Surviving Company”) and becoming the sole owner of all of the issued and outstanding shares, par value $1.00 per share, of BVI Merger Sub (each, a “BVI Merger Sub Common Share”), (b) concurrently with the consummation of the SPAC Merger, Holdings will redeem each Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share A”) and each Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share B”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger for par value (the “Holdings Redemption”), (c) following the date of the SPAC Merger, the SPAC Surviving Company will distribute all of the issued and outstanding BVI Merger Sub Common Shares to Holdings (the “BVI Merger Sub Distribution”) and (d) following the BVI Merger Sub Distribution, BVI Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Company Merger”, and together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers”), with the Company surviving the Company Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings. As a result of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the SPAC Surviving Company and Swvl will each become wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings and the securityholders of SPAC and Swvl will become securityholders of Holdings.

At the effective time of the SPAC Merger (the “SPAC Merger Effective Time”), among other things, (a) each Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of SPAC (each, a “SPAC Class A Ordinary Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive one Holdings Common Share A and (b) each Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of SPAC, will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive one Holdings Common Share B, (c) each fraction of or whole warrant to purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (each, a “SPAC Warrant”) issued, outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically assumed and converted into a fraction or whole warrant, as the case may be, to acquire (in the case of a whole warrant) one Holdings Common Share A, subject to the same terms and conditions (including exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding former warrants of SPAC (each such resulting warrant, a “Holdings Warrant”) and (d) without duplication of the foregoing, each unit of SPAC (each, a “SPAC Unit”), comprised of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of one SPAC Warrant, existing and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into one unit of Holdings (a “Holdings Unit”), comprised of one Holdings Common Share A and one-third of one Holdings Warrant.

At the effective time of the Company Merger (the “Company Merger Effective Time”), among other things, (a) all of Swvl’s ordinary common shares A of no par value (“Swvl Common Shares A”), all of Swvl’s ordinary common shares B of no par value (“Swvl Common Shares B”) and all preferred shares of Swvl (collectively, “Swvl Shares”) outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (excluding any Swvl Shares held in treasury by the Company) will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive (i) a number of Holdings Common Shares A equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) and (ii) upon the satisfaction of certain conditions more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus, the applicable per share earnout consideration (the “Per Share Earnout Consideration”), in each case without interest and (b) each then outstanding and unexercised option to purchase Company Common Shares B (each, a “Swvl Option”), whether or not vested, will be assumed and converted into (i) an option to purchase a number of Holdings Common Shares A (such option, an “Exchanged Option”) equal to the product of (A) the number of Company Common Shares B subject to such Swvl Option (assuming payment in cash of the exercise price of such Swvl Option) immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio (such product rounded down to the nearest whole share), at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (x) the exercise price per share of such Swvl Option immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective time, divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio (which option will remain subject to the same vesting terms as such Swvl Option) and (ii) a number of restricted stock units (the “Earnout RSUs”) that will be settled in Holdings Common Shares A (the “Earnout RSU Shares”) upon the satisfaction of certain price targets or the occurrence of a “change of control” event, as more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Concurrently with the consummation of the Company Merger at the Company Merger Effective Time, the Swvl Convertible Notes (as defined herein) will also convert into the right to receive Holdings Common Shares A, as further described herein.

As used herein, “Exchange Ratio” means the ratio (rounded to ten decimal places) obtained by dividing (a) Swvl Merger Shares by (b) the difference of (i) the Swvl Outstanding Shares minus (ii) the number of Swvl Shares issued following the date of the Business Combination Agreement and prior to the Company Merger Effective Time in connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest in Shotl Transportation, S.L., as more fully described herein. As used herein, “Swvl Merger Shares” means the number of Holdings Common Shares A equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of (i) $1,000,000,000 plus (ii) the sum of the aggregate exercise prices of all Swvl Options that are unexercised, issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and, if such Swvl Options were Exchanged Options, would have a per share exercise price of less than $10.00 per share by (b) $10.00. As used herein, “Swvl Outstanding Shares” means the total number of Swvl Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, and including the number of Swvl Common Shares A that would have been issuable upon conversion of the Swvl Convertible Notes and the number of Swvl Common Shares B subject to unexpired, issued and outstanding Swvl Options as of immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (assuming the payment in cash of the exercise price of such Swvl Options).

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC, Holdings and, in some cases, Swvl entered into subscription agreements (the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”) with a number of investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which the PIPE Investors agreed to purchase, and Holdings agreed to sell to the PIPE Investors in a private placement at the Company Merger Effective Time, Holdings Common Shares A for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, representing an aggregate purchase price of $100 million (the “PIPE Subscription Amount”). On August 25, 2021, certain PIPE Investors pre-funded Swvl with $35.5 million of the aggregate PIPE Subscription Amount by purchasing exchangeable notes of Swvl (collectively, the “Swvl Exchangeable Notes”). At the Company Merger Effective Time, each Swvl Exchangeable Note will be automatically exchanged for Holdings Common Shares A at an exchange price of $8.50 per share. Upon the issuance of the Swvl Exchangeable Notes, the amount of each applicable PIPE Investor’s subscription was reduced dollar-for-dollar by the aggregate purchase price of such PIPE Investor’s Swvl Exchangeable Notes. As a result, the PIPE Investors will fund $64.5 million at the Company Merger Effective Time pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements. The aggregate number of Holdings Common Shares A issuable in connection with the PIPE Subscription Agreements and the Swvl Exchangeable Notes is 10,626,471.

This proxy statement/prospectus covers the Holdings Common Shares A, Holdings Warrants and Holdings Units issuable to securityholders of SPAC and Swvl in the Business Combination. Accordingly, Holdings is registering up to an aggregate of 159,716,814 Holdings Common Shares A, including 17,433,333 Holdings Common Shares A issuable upon exercise of Holdings Warrants, 17,433,333 Holdings Warrants and 5,742,417 Holdings Units. For more information about the anticipated capitalization of Holdings upon the consummation of the Company Merger, please see the subsection entitled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus—Ownership of Holdings After the Closing”, beginning on page 1.

Proposals to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the other matters discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus will be presented at the extraordinary general meeting of SPAC shareholders scheduled to be held in person and virtually on                , 2021.

Although Holdings is not currently a public reporting company, following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus is a part and the consummation of the SPAC Merger, Holdings will become subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Holdings intends to apply for listing of the Holdings Common Shares A, Holdings Warrants and Holdings Units on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the SPAC’s current trading symbols “GMBT”, “GMBTW” and “GMBTU”, respectively, to be effective at the SPAC Merger Effective Time. At the Company Merger Effective Time, Holdings will change its name to “Swvl Holdings Corp” and intends to change the trading symbols of the Holdings Common Shares A and the Holdings Warrants to “SWVL” and “SWVLW”, respectively. The Holdings Units will separate into their component securities at the Company Merger Effective Time and will cease to exist. It is a condition to the consummation of the SPAC Merger and the Company Merger that the Holdings Common Shares A are approved for listing on Nasdaq (subject only to official notice of issuance thereof). While trading on Nasdaq is expected to begin on the first business day following the date of completion of the SPAC Merger, there can be no assurance that Holdings’ securities will be listed on Nasdaq or that a viable and active trading market will develop. Please see the subsection entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 for more information.

Holdings is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and is therefore eligible to take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements otherwise applicable to other public companies.

Holdings is also a “foreign private issuer” as defined in the Exchange Act and will be exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, Holdings’ officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, Holdings will not be required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act.

This proxy statement/prospectus provides SPAC shareholders with detailed information about the Transactions (as defined herein) and other matters to be considered at the extraordinary general meeting of SPAC. We encourage you to read the entire accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued in connection with the Transactions, or determined if this proxy statement/prospectus is accurate or adequate. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

This proxy statement/prospectus is dated                , 2021, and is first being mailed to SPAC shareholders on or about                , 2021.

QUEEN’S GAMBIT GROWTH CAPITAL

55 Hudson Yards, 44th Floor

New York, NY 10001

Dear Shareholders of Queen’s Gambit Growth Capital:

You are cordially invited to attend the extraordinary general meeting of Queen’s Gambit Growth Capital, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC”), which will be held in person on             , 2021, at             , Eastern time, at the offices of Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., located at 1114 Avenue of the Americas, 32^nd Floor, New York, NY 10036, or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned. In the interest of public health, and due to the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are also planning for the meeting to be held virtually pursuant to the procedures described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, but the physical location of the meeting will remain at the location specified above for the purposes of Cayman Islands law and our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “SPAC Articles”).

At the extraordinary general meeting, SPAC will ask its shareholders to consider and vote upon proposals as described below to, among other things, approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Swvl Inc., a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Swvl”), SPAC, Pivotal Holdings Corp, a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and wholly owned subsidiary of Swvl (“Holdings”), Pivotal Merger Sub Company I, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Cayman Merger Sub”) and Pivotal Merger Sub Company II Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and wholly owned subsidiary of SPAC (“BVI Merger Sub”), which provides for a business combination between SPAC and Swvl. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the business combination will involve two mergers: (a) subject to the approval thereof by special resolution of the shareholders of SPAC, SPAC will merge with and into Cayman Merger Sub, with Cayman Merger Sub surviving the merger (the “SPAC Merger”) (Cayman Merger Sub, in its capacity as the surviving company of the SPAC Merger, “SPAC Surviving Company” and the date and time at which the SPAC Merger becomes effective, the “SPAC Merger Effective Time”) and becoming the sole owner of BVI Merger Sub, and (b) subject to the approval thereof by ordinary resolution of the SPAC shareholders, on the date on which the Company Merger Effective Time (defined below) occurs (the “Closing Date”) (which shall be at least one business day after the date on which the SPAC Merger Effective Time occurs), BVI Merger Sub will merge with and into Swvl, with Swvl surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (Swvl, in its capacity as the surviving company of the Company Merger, the “Swvl Surviving Company”) (the “Company Merger” and, together with the SPAC Merger and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”). A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.

At the SPAC Merger Effective Time, pursuant to the SPAC Merger, (a) each ordinary share of Cayman Merger Sub, par value $1.00 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically converted into one share of the SPAC Surviving Company, which will constitute the only outstanding shares of the SPAC Surviving Company; (b) each Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of SPAC (each, a “SPAC Class A Ordinary Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share A”); (c) each Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share of SPAC (each, a “SPAC Class B Ordinary Share”), will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive one Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share B”); (d) each fraction of or whole warrant of SPAC (the “SPAC Warrants”) issued, outstanding, and unexercised immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically assumed and converted into a fraction or whole warrant, as the case may be, to acquire (in the case of whole warrant), one Holdings Common Share A, subject to the same terms and conditions (including exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding former SPAC Warrants (each

such resulting warrant, a “Holdings Warrant”); and (e) without duplication of the foregoing, each unit of SPAC (each, a “SPAC Unit”), comprised of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of one SPAC Warrant, existing and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into one unit of Holdings, comprised of one Holdings Common Share A and one-third of one Holdings Warrant.

At the effective time of the Company Merger (the “Company Merger Effective Time”), pursuant to the Company Merger, (a) each share of $1.00 par value of BVI Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into one share of no par value in the Swvl Surviving Company, which shall constitute the only issued and outstanding shares of the Swvl Surviving Company, (b) all of Swvl’s ordinary common shares A of no par value (the “Swvl Common Shares A”), all of Swvl’s ordinary common shares B of no par value (the “Swvl Common Shares B” and, together with the Swvl Common Shares A, the “Swvl Common Shares”), and all of the preferred shares of Swvl (the “Swvl Preferred Shares” and, together with the Swvl Common Shares, the “Swvl Shares”) that are held in the treasury of Swvl immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and extinguished, and no consideration will be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor; (c) each Swvl Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive (i) a number of Holdings Common Shares A equal to the exchange ratio as defined in the section entitled “The Business Combination” of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus (the “Exchange Ratio”) and (ii) upon the satisfaction of certain price targets or the occurrence of a “change of control” as described in the section entitled “The Business Combination” of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, the applicable per share earnout consideration as described in the section entitled “The Business Combination” of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus (with any fractional share to which any holder of Swvl Shares would otherwise be entitled rounded down to the nearest whole share), in each case without interest; (d) each then outstanding and unexercised option to purchase Swvl Common Shares B will be assumed and converted into (i) an option exercisable for Holdings Common Shares A based on the Exchange Ratio and (ii) a number of restricted stock units (the “Earnout RSUs”) in respect of Holdings Common Shares A that will be issued in settlement of Earnout RSUs upon the satisfaction of certain price targets or the occurrence of a “change of control”; (e) the convertible notes of Swvl then outstanding (the “Swvl Convertible Notes”), other than any exchangeable notes of Swvl issued after the date of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Swvl Exchangeable Notes”), will convert into the right to receive Holdings Common Shares A as if such Swvl Convertible Notes had first converted into Swvl Common Shares A in accordance with their terms immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and immediately thereafter each such Swvl Common Share A will be cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive a number of Holdings Common Shares A equal to the Exchange Ratio; and (f) each Swvl Exchangeable Note shall be exchanged for a number of Holdings Common Shares A at an exchange price of $8.50 per share. At the Company Merger Effective Time, all Holdings Units will be separated into their component securities. See the section entitled “The Business Combination” of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for further information on the consideration being paid to the shareholders of Swvl.

SPAC’s shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon (a) a proposal to approve by special resolution the SPAC Merger and a plan of merger in compliance with the Cayman Companies Act and substantially in form and substance of Exhibit E of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex B, and to confirm, ratify, and approve in all respects all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement occurring in connection with the SPAC Merger prior to the Closing Date, including the adoption of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Holdings, a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C, and the appointments in respect of the board of directors of Holdings following the SPAC Merger Effective Time (the “SPAC Merger Proposal”), (b) a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution the Company Merger and to confirm, ratify and approve in all respects all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement occurring on or after the Closing Date, including the appointment of the board of directors of Holdings following the Company Merger Effective Time and the adoption of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Holdings (to include the change of name of Holdings) (the “Holdings Public Company Articles”), a copy of which is attached to the

accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D (the “Company Merger Proposal”), (c) a proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, by ordinary resolution, the governance provisions contained in the Holdings Public Company Articles that materially affect SPAC shareholders’ rights (the “Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal”); and (d) a proposal, if put, to approve by ordinary resolution the adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the SPAC Merger Proposal, the Company Merger Proposal and the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 4” and, together with the SPAC Merger Proposal, the Company Merger Proposal and the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal, the “Proposals”).

We cannot consummate the Business Combination unless the SPAC Merger Proposal and the Company Merger Proposal (collectively, the “Business Combination Proposals”) are approved at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Business Combination Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of the other Business Combination Proposal. The Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are not conditioned on the approval of any other Proposal set forth in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. The approval of the Company Merger, the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are being proposed as an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy, including by way of the online meeting option) of the holders of a majority of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares entitled to vote and actually casting votes thereon at the extraordinary general meeting, voting as a single class. Approval of the SPAC Merger Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy, including by way of the online meeting option) of the holders of at least two-thirds of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares entitled to vote and actually casting votes thereon at the extraordinary general meeting, voting as a single class. Accordingly, a shareholder’s failure to vote in person or by proxy (including by way of the online meeting option) at the extraordinary general meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on any of the Proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

In connection with the Business Combination, certain related agreements have been, or will be, entered into on or prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including (a) the Swvl transaction support agreements, dated as of July 28, 2021 (the “Swvl Transaction Support Agreements”), pursuant to which certain shareholders of Swvl have agreed to execute and deliver written consents in favor of the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company Merger and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement within three business days of this registration statement becoming effective, and the holders of the Swvl Convertible Notes (other than the Swvl Exchangeable Notes) have agreed to the conversion of such Swvl Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Swvl Transaction Support Agreements and the Business Combination Agreement; (b) the SPAC Shareholder Support Agreements, dated as of July 28, 2021, pursuant to which certain shareholders of SPAC holding an aggregate of 8.9% of the shares of SPAC as of the date of such agreement have agreed to vote such shares in favor of the Proposals and have committed to not redeem such shares, (c) a shareholder agreement, dated July 28, 2021, pursuant to which certain persons who will become shareholders of Holdings following the consummation of the Business Combination have agreed to act to establish certain board appointment and corporate governance rights, and to enter into voting commitments, with respect to Holdings, on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof; (d) the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2021 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) by and among Swvl, SPAC, Holdings, Queen’s Gambit Holdings LLC (the “Sponsor”) and certain security holders of Swvl (collectively, the “Reg Rights Holders”), pursuant to which Holdings is required to (i) within 20 business days after the consummation of the Company Merger, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) registering the resale of certain securities of Holdings held by the Reg Rights Holders and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof; (e) a letter agreement, dated as of July 28, 2021, by and among SPAC, Swvl and the Sponsor, providing that, among other things, the Sponsor will (i) waive its anti-dilution rights set forth in the organizational documents of SPAC and (following the SPAC Merger) Holdings, as applicable, (ii) vote all shares of SPAC held by it in favor of the Proposals, and

(iii) not redeem any shares of SPAC held by the Sponsor (or any shares of Holdings received in connection with the SPAC Merger); (f) the Subscription Agreements, dated as of July 28, 2021, pursuant to which certain investors will purchase 6,450,000 newly issued Holdings Common Shares A, for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “PIPE Financing”); and (g) $35,500,000 of Swvl Exchangeable Notes, which will exchange into the right to receive Holdings Common Shares A at an exchange price of $8.50 per share at the Company Merger Effective Time.

Pursuant to the SPAC Articles, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issued as part of the SPAC Units in the initial public offering (the “SPAC Public Shares” and, holders of such public shares, the “SPAC Public Shareholders”) may request that SPAC redeem all or a portion of such SPAC Public Shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. Holders of SPAC Units must elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares. If SPAC Public Shareholders hold their SPAC Units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, such SPAC Public Shareholders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants, or if a holder holds SPAC Units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, SPAC’s transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself to SPAC in order to exercise its redemption rights. SPAC Public Shareholders may elect to exercise their redemption rights with respect to their SPAC Public Shares even if they vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposals. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the SPAC Public Shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank. If the Business Combination is consummated, and if a SPAC Public Shareholder properly exercises its redemption right with respect to all or a portion of the SPAC Public Shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Holdings will redeem the related Holdings Common Shares A for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the pro-rata portion of the trust account established at the consummation of SPAC’s initial public offering, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Company Merger. For illustrative purposes, as of            , 2021, this would have amounted to approximately $10.00 per issued and outstanding SPAC Public Share. If a SPAC Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will not own SPAC Public Shares or Holdings Common Shares A following the redemption. The redemption will take place following the SPAC Merger and, accordingly, it is Holdings Common Shares A that will be redeemed immediately after consummation of the Company Merger. Please see the subsection entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting—Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to exercise your rights with respect to your SPAC Public Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a SPAC Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such SPAC Public Shareholder or any other person with whom such SPAC Public Shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its SPAC Public Shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 20% of the SPAC Public Shares. Accordingly, if a SPAC Public Shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 20% of the SPAC Public Shares, then any such shares in excess of that 20% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

The Sponsor, SPAC’s officers and directors and the Key SPAC Shareholders have agreed to (a) vote any SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by them in favor of the Business Combination and (b) waive their redemption rights with respect to any SPAC Public Shares they own in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. The SPAC’s officers and directors do not presently hold any SPAC Public Shares. Any outstanding SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per share redemption price applicable to SPAC Public Shares that are redeemed. As of the date of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor owns approximately 20.0% of the issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares in the aggregate.

The Business Combination Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions as described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. There can be no assurance that the

parties to the Business Combination Agreement would waive any such provision of the Business Combination Agreement if the closing conditions are not met. In addition, as provided in the SPAC Articles and required as a closing condition to each party’s obligation to consummate the Business Combination under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, in no event will SPAC redeem SPAC Public Shares in an amount that would cause Holdings’ net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001 after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the PIPE Financing unless the Holdings Common Shares A otherwise do not constitute “penny stock” as such term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.

SPAC is providing the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to its shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the extraordinary general meeting and at any adjournments of the extraordinary general meeting. Information about the extraordinary general meeting, the Business Combination and other related business to be considered by SPAC’s shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting, all of SPAC’s shareholders are urged to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. In particular, you should carefully consider the matters discussed under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the boards of directors of SPAC and Swvl have each unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement and related transactions and the board of directors of SPAC has approved the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus and determined that it is advisable to consummate the Business Combination. The board of directors of SPAC recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the approval of the SPAC Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Company Merger Proposal and “FOR” the other proposals described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

Your vote is very important, regardless of the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares you own. To ensure your representation at the extraordinary general meeting, please complete, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. Please submit your proxy promptly, whether or not you expect to attend the extraordinary general meeting.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted FOR each of the proposals presented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the extraordinary general meeting virtually or in person, the effect will be, among other things, that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the extraordinary general meeting and will not be voted. An abstention or broker non-vote will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. You can also attend the extraordinary general meeting virtually and vote online even if you have previously voted by submitting a proxy pursuant to any of the methods noted above. If you are a shareholder of record and you attend the extraordinary general meeting and wish to vote in person or online, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person or online.

More information about SPAC, Swvl and the proposed transactions is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. SPAC urges you to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the financial statements and annexes and other documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety.

TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS, YOU MUST DEMAND IN WRITING THAT YOUR SPAC PUBLIC SHARES ARE REDEEMED FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT AND TENDER YOUR SHARES TO SPAC’S TRANSFER AGENT AT LEAST TWO BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE VOTE AT THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING. IN

ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHT, YOU NEED TO IDENTIFY YOURSELF AS A BENEFICIAL HOLDER. YOU MAY TENDER YOUR SHARES BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR SHARE CERTIFICATE TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR SHARES ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION IS NOT COMPLETED, THEN THESE SHARES WILL BE RETURNED TO YOU OR YOUR ACCOUNT. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK OR BROKER TO WITHDRAW THE SHARES FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

On behalf of our board of directors, I thank you for your support and look forward to the successful completion of the Business Combination.

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF QUEEN’S GAMBIT GROWTH CAPITAL

To Be Held On            , 2021

To the Shareholders of Queen’s Gambit Growth Capital:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that an extraordinary general meeting (the “SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting”) of Queen’s Gambit Growth Capital, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC,” “we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”), will be held in person on             , 2021, at             , Eastern time, at the offices of Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., located at 1114 Avenue of the Americas, 32^nd Floor, New York, NY 10036, or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned. In the interest of public health, and due to the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are also planning for the meeting to be held virtually pursuant to the procedures described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, but the physical location of the meeting will remain at the location specified above for the purposes of Cayman Islands law and our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “SPAC Articles”). At the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, SPAC shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

Each of the Business Combination Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval and adoption of the other Business Combination Proposal. The Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are not conditioned on the approval of any other Proposal set forth in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. In the event the Adjournment Proposal is put forth at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, it will be the first and only Proposal voted upon and none of the SPAC Merger Proposal, the Company Merger Proposal, nor the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal will be submitted to the SPAC shareholders for a vote.

Only holders of record of SPAC’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares”), and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares”) at the close of business on             , 2021 are entitled to notice of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and to vote at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and any adjournments thereof.

SPAC is providing the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to its shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and at any adjournments of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. Information about the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, the Business Combination and other related business to be considered by SPAC’s shareholders at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. Whether or not you plan to attend the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, all of SPAC’s shareholders are urged to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. In particular, you should carefully consider the matters discussed under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the board of directors of SPAC has unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement and related transactions and the other Proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus, and has determined that it is advisable to consummate the Business Combination. The board of directors of SPAC recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the approval of the SPAC Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Company Merger Proposal and “FOR” the other proposals described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

Pursuant to the SPAC Articles, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issued as part of the units sold in SPAC’s initial public offering (the “SPAC Public Shares” and, holders of such SPAC Public Shares the “SPAC Public Shareholders”) may request that SPAC redeem all or a portion of its SPAC Public Shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. As a holder of SPAC Public Shares, you will be entitled to exercise your redemption rights if you:

(a)    hold SPAC Public Shares, or if you hold SPAC Public Shares through SPAC units sold in SPAC’s initial public offering (the “SPAC Units”), you elect to separate your SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Public Shares and warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights;

(b)    submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, SPAC’s transfer agent, in which you (i) request the exercise of your redemption rights with respect to all or a portion of your SPAC Public Shares for cash, and (ii) identify yourself as the beneficial holder of the SPAC Public Shares and provide your legal name, phone number and address; and

(c)    deliver your SPAC Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, SPAC’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through The Depository Trust Company.

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their SPAC Public Shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on             , 2021 (two business days before the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting) in order for their shares to be redeemed.

Holders of SPAC Units must elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and warrants prior to exercising their redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares. If SPAC Public Shareholders hold their SPAC Units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, such SPAC Public Shareholders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Public Shares and warrants, or if a holder holds SPAC Units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, SPAC’s transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself to SPAC in order to validly exercise its redemption rights. SPAC Public Shareholders may elect to exercise their redemption rights with respect to their SPAC Public Shares even if they vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposals. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the SPAC Public Shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank. If the Business Combination is consummated, and if a SPAC Public Shareholder properly exercises its redemption right with respect to all or a portion of the SPAC Public Shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Holdings will redeem the related Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share of Holdings (“Holdings Common Shares A”) for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account established at the consummation of SPAC’s initial public offering, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of            , 2021, this would have amounted to approximately $10.00 per issued and outstanding SPAC Public Share. If a SPAC Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will not own SPAC Public Shares or Holdings Common Shares A following the redemption. The redemption will take place following the SPAC Merger and, accordingly, it is Holdings Common Shares A that will be redeemed immediately after consummation of the Business Combination. Please see the subsection entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting—Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your SPAC Public Shares.

The approval of the Company Merger, the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are being proposed as an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy, including by way of the online meeting option) of the holders of a majority of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares entitled to vote and actually casting votes thereon at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, voting as a single class. Approval of the SPAC Merger Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy, including by way of the online meeting option) of the holders of at least two-thirds of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares entitled to vote and actually casting votes thereon at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, voting as a single class. Accordingly, a shareholder’s failure to vote in person or by proxy (including by way of the online meting option) at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on any of the Proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting.

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT, REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF ORDINARY SHARES OF SPAC YOU OWN. To ensure your representation at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, please complete and return the enclosed proxy card or submit your proxy by following the instructions maintained in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and on your proxy card. Please submit your proxy promptly, whether

or not you expect to attend the meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name,” you should instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote in accordance with the voting instruction form you received from your broker, bank or other nominee.

The board of directors of SPAC has unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and recommends that you vote “FOR” the SPAC Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Company Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal, and (if put) “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

Your attention is directed to the proxy statement/prospectus accompanying this notice (including the annexes thereto) for a more complete description of the proposed Business Combination and related transactions and each of our Proposals. We encourage you to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus carefully. If you have any questions or need assistance voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor, Morrow Sodali, at (880) 662-5200 (banks and brokers call collect at (203) 658-9400).

Unless otherwise indicated, information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus concerning Swvl’s industry, including Swvl’s general expectations and market position, market opportunity and market share, is based on information obtained from various independent publicly available sources and reports, as well as management estimates. Swvl has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of any third-party information. While Swvl believes that the market data, industry forecasts and similar information included in this proxy statement/prospectus are generally reliable, such information is inherently imprecise. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from third parties are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this proxy statement/prospectus. In addition, assumptions and estimates of Swvl’s future performance and growth objectives and the future performance of its industry and the markets in which it operates are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Swvl” in this proxy statement/prospectus.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

SPAC

Swvl

Swvl’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 included in this proxy statement/prospectus have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and are reported in U.S. dollars.

Holdings

Holdings was incorporated on July 23, 2021 for the purpose of effectuating the transactions described herein. Holdings has no material assets and does not operate any businesses. Accordingly, no financial statements of Holdings have been included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The Business Combination is made up of the series of transactions described in the Business Combination Agreement and as further described elsewhere within this proxy statement/prospectus.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

Swvl reports certain financial information using non-IFRS financial measures, including Gross Sales, Gross Sales Less Captain Costs and Adjusted EBITDA. Swvl believes that these measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding the performance of Swvl and facilitate a comparison of Swvl’s quarterly and full year results from period to period. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable with similar measures used by other companies. For certain non-IFRS financial measures, there are no directly comparable amounts under IFRS.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPAC SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING AND THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

The following questions and answers briefly address some commonly asked questions about the Proposals to be presented at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, including the proposed Business Combination. The following questions and answers do not include all the information that is important to SPAC shareholders. We urge SPAC shareholders to carefully read this entire proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes and other documents referred to herein.

A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A. This proxy statement/prospectus and its annexes contain important information about the proposed Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. You should read this proxy statement/prospectus and its annexes carefully and in their entirety.

Your vote is important. You are encouraged to submit your proxy as soon as possible after carefully reviewing this proxy statement/prospectus and its annexes.

The Business Combination cannot be completed unless SPAC shareholders approve the SPAC Merger Proposal and the Company Merger Proposal at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. In the event the Adjournment Proposal is put forth at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, it will be the first and only Proposal voted upon and none of the SPAC Merger Proposal, the Company Merger Proposal, nor the Advisory Organizational Documents Proposal will be submitted to the SPAC shareholders for a vote.

On July 28, 2021, SPAC, Swvl, Holdings, Cayman Merger Sub and BVI Merger Sub entered into the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which the Business Combination will be effected in four steps: (a) in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, SPAC will merge with and into Cayman Merger Sub, with Cayman Merger Sub surviving the SPAC Merger and becoming the sole owner of BVI Merger Sub; (b) concurrently with the consummation of the SPAC Merger, and subject to the BVI Companies Act, Holdings will redeem each Holdings Common Share A and each Holdings Common Share B issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger for par value, (c) following the SPAC Merger and subject to the Cayman Companies Act and the BVI Companies Act, the SPAC Surviving Company will distribute all of the issued and outstanding BVI Merger Sub Common Shares to Holdings, and (d) following the BVI Merger Sub Distribution, but no earlier than one business day after the SPAC Merger, in accordance with the BVI Companies Act, BVI Merger Sub will merge with and into Swvl, with Swvl surviving the Company Merger as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Holdings.

The SPAC Merger and the Holdings Redemption will occur at least one business day prior to, and independent of, the Company Merger and the Closing. The PIPE Financing will be consummated prior to or substantially concurrently with the Company Merger.

As a result of the Business Combination, the SPAC Surviving Company and Swvl will each become wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings and the securityholders of SPAC and Swvl will become securityholders of Holdings. Following the Business Combination, Holdings will be a public company and is expected to be listed on Nasdaq. For more information about the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination.”

On January 22, 2021, SPAC completed the IPO of 34,500,000 SPAC Units, including 4,500,000 SPAC Units that were issued pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, with each SPAC Unit consisting of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of one SPAC Warrant, where each whole SPAC Warrant is exercisable to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, generating gross proceeds to SPAC of $345,000,000. The underwriters were granted a 45-day option from the date of the final prospectus relating to the IPO to purchase up to 4,500,000 additional units to cover over-allotments, if any, at $10.00 per unit, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full on January 22, 2021. Since the IPO, SPAC’s activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial business combination.

The SPAC Board considered a wide variety of factors in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination, including its review of the results of the due diligence conducted by SPAC’s management and SPAC’s advisors. As a result, the SPAC Board concluded that a transaction with Swvl would present the most attractive opportunity to maximize value for SPAC’s shareholders. Please see the subsection entitled “The Business Combination—The SPAC Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

ii

For additional information, please see the section entitled “Management After the Business Combination.”

On August 25, 2021, eight PIPE Investors pre-funded Swvl with $35.5 million of the aggregate PIPE Subscription Amount by purchasing Swvl Exchangeable Notes. At the Closing, each Swvl Exchangeable Note will be automatically exchanged for Holdings Common Shares A at an exchange price of $8.50 per share. Upon the issuance of the Swvl Exchangeable Notes, the amount of the applicable PIPE Investor’s subscription was reduced dollar-for-dollar by the aggregate purchase price of such PIPE Investor’s Swvl Exchangeable Notes. As a result, the PIPE Investors will fund $64.5 million at the Company Merger Effective Time pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements.

The aggregate number of Holdings Common Shares A issuable to the PIPE Investors in connection with the PIPE Subscription Agreements and the Swvl Exchangeable Notes is 10,626,471.

If we (a) assume that (i) no SPAC Public Shareholders elect to have their SPAC Public Shares redeemed, (ii) there are no other issuances of equity interests of SPAC or Swvl, (iii) none of the Sponsor or the Swvl Shareholders purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market, and (iv) all Exchanged Options are exercised using cash and (b) do not take into account (i) Holdings Warrants that will remain outstanding following the Business Combination and may be exercised at a later date or (ii) the Earnout Shares or the Earnout RSUs, the ownership of Holdings upon completion of the Business Combination would be as follows:

iii

If we assume the maximum redemptions scenario described under the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” (i.e., 30,639,823 SPAC Public Shares are redeemed), and the assumptions set forth in the foregoing clauses (a)(ii)–(iv) and (b) remain true, the ownership of Holdings upon completion of the Business Combination would be as follows:

The ownership percentages with respect to Holdings set forth above do not take into account SPAC Warrants that will convert into Holdings Warrants in the Business Combination, but do include the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, which will convert into Holdings Common Shares B in the SPAC Merger, with such Holdings Common Shares B converting into Holdings Common Shares A upon the Company Merger. If the facts are different than these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by SPAC’s existing shareholders in Holdings following the Business Combination will be different. For example, if we assume that all outstanding 11,500,000 SPAC Public Warrants and 5,933,333 SPAC Private Placement Warrants were exercisable and exercised following completion of the Business Combination and further assume that no SPAC Public Shareholders elect to have their SPAC Public Shares redeemed (and each other assumption set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) remain true), then the ownership of Holdings upon completion of the Business Combination would be as follows:

The Holdings Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination and January 22, 2022 and will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon their redemption or liquidation.

iv

If we assume the issuance of the maximum number of Earnout Shares (and each other assumption set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) remain true), then the ownership of Holdings upon completion of the Business Combination would be as follows:

Please see the subsection entitled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus—Ownership of Holding After the Closing” and the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” for further information.

As a result, immediately following the SPAC Merger and prior to the Company Merger, holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares, SPAC Warrants and SPAC Units will hold the same interests in Holdings as they did in SPAC as of immediately prior to the SPAC Merger. Following the SPAC Merger and prior to the Company Merger, the Holdings Common Shares A, Holdings Warrants and Holdings Units held by the former holders of SPAC equity are expected to be publicly traded and listed on Nasdaq under SPAC’s current trading symbols “GMBT”, “GMBTW” and “GMBTU”. During such period, Holdings will be the sole shareholder of the SPAC Surviving Company and will hold no other material assets.

For additional information about the SPAC Merger, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus.

v

The rules governing the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the SPAC Merger are complex. All holders of SPAC Public Securities are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences to them of the SPAC Merger, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax laws. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the SPAC Merger to U.S. Holders, please see the subsection entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders—The SPAC Merger”.

Guggenheim Securities’ opinion was provided to the SPAC Board (in its capacity as such) for its information and assistance in connection with its evaluation of the consideration under the Business Combination Agreement. Guggenheim Securities’ opinion and any materials provided in connection therewith did not constitute a recommendation to the SPAC Board with respect to the Company Merger or related transactions, nor does Guggenheim Securities’ opinion or the summary of its underlying financial analyses elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus constitute advice or a recommendation to any holder of securities of SPAC as to how to vote or act in connection with the Mergers or otherwise (including whether or not holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares should redeem their shares). Guggenheim Securities’ opinion addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of such opinion, of the Company Merger Consideration to SPAC to the extent expressly specified in such opinion and does not address any other term, aspect or implication of the Mergers or the related transactions (including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Mergers and the related transactions), the Business Combination Agreement, the PIPE Investment, the Swvl Transaction Support Agreements, the SPAC Shareholder Support Agreements, the Sponsor Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreements, the Holdings Shareholder Agreement, or any other agreement, transaction document or instrument contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or to be entered into or amended in connection with the Mergers or any financing or other transactions related thereto.

Please see the subsection entitled “The Business Combination—Opinion of SPAC’s Financial Advisor” and the opinion of Guggenheim Securities attached hereto as Annex E for additional information.

vi

Upon the Company Merger Closing, the Holdings Units will be separated into their component securities and cease to exist. The parties anticipate that, following the Company Merger Closing, the Holdings Common Shares A and Holdings Warrants will trade on Nasdaq under the new symbols “SWVL” and “SWVLW,” respectively.

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Holdings will assume the Warrant Agreement and enter into such amendments thereto as are necessary to give effect to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement, and each SPAC Warrant then outstanding and unexercised will automatically without any action on the part of its holder be converted into a Holdings Warrant. Each Holdings Warrant will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding SPAC Warrant immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time, except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Business Combination.

vii

Following the Business Combination, Holdings may redeem public Holdings Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to the holders of such Holdings Warrants, thereby making such warrants worthless. More specifically:

In each case, Holdings may only call the Holdings Warrants for redemption upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior notice of redemption.

Redemption of the outstanding Holdings Warrants could force holders of the Holdings Warrants to (a) exercise Holdings Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for such holders to do so, (b) sell Holdings Warrants at the then-current market price when they might otherwise wish to hold their Holdings Warrants or (c) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Holdings Warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of the Holdings Warrants.

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their SPAC Public Shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on             , 2021 (two business days before the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting) in order for their shares to be redeemed.

Holders of SPAC Units must elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants prior to exercising their redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares. If SPAC Public Shareholders hold their SPAC Units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, such SPAC Public Shareholders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the SPAC Units into the underlying SPAC Public Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, or if a holder holds SPAC Units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, SPAC’s transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself to SPAC in order to validly exercise its redemption rights. SPAC Public Shareholders may elect to exercise their redemption rights with respect to their SPAC Public Shares even if they vote ”FOR” the Proposals. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the SPAC Public Shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker, or bank. If the Business Combination is consummated, and if a SPAC Public Shareholder properly exercises its redemption right with respect to all or a portion of the SPAC Public Shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Holdings will redeem the related Holdings Common Shares A for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the pro rata portion of the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of             , 2021, this would have amounted to approximately $10.00 per issued and outstanding SPAC Public Share. If a SPAC Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will not own SPAC Public Shares or Holdings Common Shares A following the redemption. The redemption will take place following the SPAC Merger and, accordingly, it is Holdings Common Shares A that will be redeemed immediately after consummation of the Business Combination. Please see the subsection entitled “SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting—Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your SPAC Public Shares.

Attention: Mark Zimkind

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a SPAC Public Shareholder, together with any of his, her, or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to his, her, or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of the 20% threshold. Accordingly, all SPAC Public Shares in excess of the 20% threshold beneficially owned by a SPAC Public Shareholder or group will not be eligible for redemption. In order to determine whether a shareholder is acting in concert or as a group with any other shareholder, SPAC will require each SPAC Public Shareholder seeking to exercise redemption rights to certify to SPAC whether such shareholder is acting in concert or as a group with any other shareholder. Shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is SPAC’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, SPAC does not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Shareholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker, or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically.

Holders of outstanding SPAC Units must separate the underlying SPAC Public Shares and SPAC Public Warrants prior to exercising their redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares. If you hold SPAC Units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units or deliver such units electronically to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company with written instructions to separate such units into SPAC Public Shares and SPAC Public Warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the SPAC Public Share certificates or electronic delivery of the SPAC Public Shares back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares following the separation of such SPAC Public Shares from the SPAC Units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee holds your SPAC Units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your SPAC Units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Such written instructions must include the number of SPAC Units to be split and the nominee holding such SPAC Units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC (deposit withdrawal at custodian) system, a withdrawal of the relevant SPAC Units and a deposit of the corresponding number of SPAC Public Shares and SPAC Public

xiii

Warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Public Shares following the separation of such SPAC Public Shares from the SPAC Units. While this is typically done electronically on the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your SPAC Public Shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your redemption rights.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and, thereafter, with SPAC’s consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination. If you delivered your SPAC Public Shares for redemption to the transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your redemption rights, you may request that the transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting SPAC’s transfer agent at the email address or address listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Because the SPAC Merger will occur prior to the redemption of stock from U.S. Holders that exercise their redemption rights, such U.S. Holders will be subject to the potential tax consequences of the SPAC Merger. The tax considerations for U.S. Holders with respect to the SPAC Merger are discussed more fully in the section entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders—The SPAC Merger”.

All holders of SPAC Public Securities considering exercising their redemption rights should consult with their tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences to them of the SPAC Merger and the exercise of their redemption rights.

xiv

It is expected that the amount of any distribution the SPAC Public Shareholders will be entitled to receive upon SPAC’s dissolution will be approximately the same as the amount they would have received if they had redeemed their shares in connection with the Business Combination, subject in each case to SPAC’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. Holders of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares have waived any right to any liquidating distributions with respect to those shares.

In the event of liquidation, there will be no distribution with respect to the outstanding SPAC Warrants. Accordingly, the SPAC Warrants will expire worthless.

In addition, if the Business Combination is not consummated, the Swvl Exchangeable Notes will become convertible solely into Swvl Shares (and not into shares of Holdings).

RISK FACTORS

An investment in Holdings and the proposed Business Combination each involve a high degree of risk and uncertainty. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this proxy statement/prospectus, before you decide whether to vote or instruct your vote to be cast to approve the proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus, and before you decide whether to cause any SPAC Public Shares you hold to be redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. Certain of the following risk factors apply to the business and operations of Swvl and will also apply to the business and operations of Holdings following the completion of the Business Combination. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may adversely affect the ability to complete or realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, or may have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and trading price of Holdings following the Business Combination. The risks discussed below may not prove to be exhaustive and are based on certain assumptions made by Holdings, SPAC and Swvl, which later may prove to be incorrect or incomplete. Holdings, SPAC and Swvl may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to them, or that are currently deemed immaterial, but which may also ultimately have an adverse effect on any such party. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Swvl” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SPAC” and the financial statements of Swvl and SPAC and the notes thereto included herein, as applicable.

Risks Related to Operational Factors Affecting Swvl

Swvl’s limited operating history and evolving business make it particularly difficult to evaluate Swvl’s prospects and the risks and challenges Swvl may encounter.

While Swvl has primarily focused on mass transit ridesharing services since Swvl launched in 2017, Swvl’s business continues to evolve. Beginning in 2020, Swvl has reevaluated and adjusted its pricing methodologies and expanded its business offerings to include TaaS and (in the future) SaaS. While it is difficult to evaluate the prospects and risks of any business, Swvl’s relatively new and evolving business makes it particularly difficult to assess Swvl’s prospects and the risks and challenges it may encounter. Risks and challenges Swvl has faced or expects to face include its ability to:

24

If Swvl fails to address the risks and difficulties that it faces, including those associated with the challenges listed above as well as those described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected. Further, because Swvl has limited historical financial data, operates in a rapidly evolving market and its growth strategy is premised on rapid international expansion, any predictions about Swvl’s future revenue and expenses may not be as accurate as they would be if Swvl had a longer operating history or operated in a more predictable market. If Swvl’s assumptions regarding these risks and uncertainties, which Swvl uses to plan and operate its business, are incorrect or change, or if it does not address these risks successfully, Swvl’s operating results could differ materially from its expectations and Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related responsive measures have disrupted and negatively impacted, and may in the future disrupt and negatively impact, Swvl’s business, financial condition, and operating results. Swvl cannot predict the extent to which the pandemic and related effects may in the future adversely impact its business, financial condition and operating results, and the execution of Swvl’s strategic objectives.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related responsive measures (e.g., travel bans, travel restrictions and shelter-in-place orders) have negatively impacted Swvl’s business, financial condition, and operating results. The pandemic and these related responses continue to evolve and have caused, and may in the future cause, decreased demand for Swvl’s platform relative to pre-COVID-19 levels and significant volatility and disruption of financial markets.

The COVID-19 pandemic has subjected Swvl’s business, financial condition, and operating results to several risks, including, but not limited to the following:

25

As the severity, magnitude, and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting public health responses and its economic consequences remain uncertain and difficult to predict, the pandemic’s impact on Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results, as well as its impact on Swvl’s ability to successfully execute its business strategies and initiatives, also remains uncertain and difficult to predict. As the countries in which Swvl operates have reopened, the recovery of the economy and Swvl’s business have fluctuated and varied by geography. Further, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the riders, drivers and other users of Swvl’s platform, as well as its employees, business, financial condition and operating results depends on many factors that are not within Swvl’s control, including, but not limited, to: governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic (including restrictions on travel and transport and modified workplace activities); the impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response thereto on local or regional economies, travel and economic activity; the speed and efficacy of vaccine distribution; the availability of government funding programs; evolving laws and regulations regarding COVID-19, including those related to disclosure and notification; general economic uncertainty in key markets and financial market volatility; volatility in global economic conditions and levels of economic growth; the duration of the pandemic; the extent of any virus mutations or new variants of COVID-19; and the pace of recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.

Several countries in which Swvl operates and plans to operate in the future have been subject to political and economic instability.

Swvl currently conducts most of its business operations in Egypt, Pakistan and Kenya, and its growth strategy is premised on the rapid introduction of its platform into both emerging and developed markets. Several of the countries in which Swvl operates or plans to operate its business have previously, and in the future may be, subject to instances of political instability, civil unrest, hostilities, terrorist activities and economic volatility. Any such events may lead to, among other things, declines in rider and driver demand for Swvl’s platform, whether

arising from safety concerns, a drop in consumer confidence or otherwise, a general deterioration of economic conditions, currency volatility or adverse changes to the political and regulatory environment. Any such developments and any other forms of political or economic instability in Swvl’s markets may harm Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Swvl faces competition and could lose market share to competitors, which could adversely affect Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Swvl believes that its principal competition for ridership is public transportation services. Swvl’s business model is premised in part on promoting the safety, efficiency and convenience of its offerings to convert public transportation users into riders on Swvl’s platform. While Swvl has previously been successful in attracting and retaining new riders, public transportation is often available at a lower price and with a greater variety of routes than the rides Swvl offers. In addition, public transportation operators in Swvl’s markets may in the future make improvements or implement measures to enhance the safety, efficiency and convenience of their networks. If current and potential riders do not view the advantages of Swvl’s platform as outweighing the difference in price, or if the successful introduction of such improvements or measures weakens the competitive advantages of Swvl’s offerings, Swvl may be unable to retain existing riders or attract new riders and its business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

26

Swvl also faces competition from other ridesharing companies and car hire and taxi companies. The ridesharing market in particular is intensely competitive and is characterized by rapid changes in technology, shifting rider needs and preferences and frequent introductions of new services and offerings. Swvl expects competition to increase, both from existing competitors and new entrants in the markets in which Swvl operates or plans to operate, and such competitors may be well-established and enjoy greater resources or other strategic advantages. If Swvl is unable to anticipate or successfully react to these competitive challenges in a timely manner, Swvl’s competitive position could weaken, or fail to improve, and Swvl could experience a decline in revenue or growth stagnation that could adversely affect Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Certain of Swvl’s current and potential competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing, research and development and other resources, greater name recognition, longer operating histories or a larger global user base than Swvl does. Such competitors may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of offerings and offer lower prices in certain markets than Swvl does, which could adversely affect Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results. These and other factors may allow Swvl’s competitors to derive greater revenue and profits from their existing user bases, attract and retain qualified drivers and riders at lower costs or respond more quickly to new and emerging technologies and trends. Current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative or strategic relationships, or consolidate, amongst themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and offerings.

Swvl believes that its ability to compete effectively depends upon many factors both within and beyond Swvl’s control, including:

If Swvl is unable to compete successfully, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

27

The mass transit ridesharing market is still in relatively early stages of growth and if the market does not continue to grow, grows more slowly than Swvl expects or fails to grow as large as Swvl expects, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Prior to COVID-19, the mass transit ridesharing market was growing rapidly, but it is still relatively new, and it is uncertain to what extent market acceptance will continue to grow, if at all, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic. Swvl’s success will depend to a substantial extent on the willingness of people to widely-adopt mass transit ridesharing. If the public does not perceive Swvl’s offerings as beneficial, or chooses not to adopt them as a result of concerns regarding public health or safety, affordability or for other reasons, then the market for Swvl’s offerings may not further develop, may develop more slowly than Swvl expects or may not achieve the growth potential Swvl expects. Any of the foregoing risks and challenges could adversely affect Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results.

If Swvl fails to cost-effectively attract and retain qualified drivers to use its platform, or to increase utilization of Swvl’s platform by existing drivers using its platform, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

Swvl’s continued growth depends in part on its ability to cost-effectively attract and retain qualified drivers who satisfy Swvl’s screening criteria and procedures to use its platform and to increase utilization of Swvl’s platform by existing drivers.

To attract and retain qualified drivers to use its platform, Swvl has, among other things, offered bonus payments and other incentives to high-performing drivers, and temporarily provided financial assistance to support drivers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Government and private business actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as travel bans, travel restrictions, shelter-in-place orders, increased reliance on work-from-home rather than working in offices, and people and businesses electing to move away from more densely populated cities, have decreased and may in the future decrease utilization of Swvl’s platform by riders. If Swvl does not continue to provide drivers with compelling opportunities to earn income and other incentive programs for using its platform, or if drivers become dissatisfied with Swvl’s requirements for drivers to use its platform, Swvl may fail to attract new drivers to use its platform, retain current drivers to use its platform or increase their utilization of its platform, or Swvl may experience complaints, negative publicity, or services disruptions that could adversely affect its users and its business.

The incentives Swvl provides to attract drivers could fail to attract and retain qualified drivers to use its platform or fail to increase utilization of its platform by existing drivers, or could have other unintended adverse consequences. In addition, changes in certain laws and regulations, labor and employment laws, licensing requirements or background check requirements, may result in a shift or decrease in the pool of qualified drivers, which may result in increased competition for the services of qualified drivers or higher costs of recruitment, operation and retention with respect to drivers providing services through the Swvl platform. Other factors outside of Swvl’s control, such as the COVID-19 pandemic or other concerns about personal health and safety, or concerns about the availability of government or other assistance programs if drivers continue to drive using Swvl’s platform, may also reduce the number of drivers available through Swvl’s platform or utilization of Swvl’s platform by drivers, or impact Swvl’s ability to attract new drivers to use its platform. If Swvl fails to attract qualified drivers to use its platform on favorable terms, fails to increase utilization of its platform by existing drivers or loses qualified drivers using its platform to competitors, Swvl may not be able to meet the demand of riders, including maintaining competitive prices for riders, and Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

If Swvl fails to cost-effectively attract and retain new riders or to increase utilization of its platform by existing riders, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

Swvl’s success depends in part on its ability to cost-effectively attract and retain new riders and increase utilization of Swvl’s platform by current riders. Riders have a wide variety of options for transportation, including

28

public transportation, taxis and other ridesharing offerings. Rider preferences may also change from time to time with the advent of new mobility technologies, different behaviors and attitudes towards the environment and new urban planning practices (including increased focus on public transportation and public-private partnerships with respect to mobility). To expand its rider base, Swvl must appeal to new riders who have historically used other forms of transportation or other ridesharing platforms. Swvl believes that its paid marketing initiatives have been critical in promoting awareness of Swvl’s brand and offerings, which in turn leads to new riders using Swvl for the first time and drives rider utilization (measured as the number of bookings in a time period divided by the total seat capacity during such time period). Further, as Swvl continues to expand into new geographic areas, it will be relying in part on referrals from existing riders to attract new riders. However, Swvl’s brand and ability to build trust with existing and new riders may be adversely affected by complaints and negative publicity about Swvl, its offerings, its policies, including its pricing algorithms, drivers using its platform, or its competitors, even if factually incorrect or based on isolated incidents. Further, if existing and new riders do not perceive the transportation services provided by drivers using Swvl’s platform to be reliable, safe and affordable, or if Swvl fails to offer new and relevant offerings and features on its platform, Swvl may not be able to attract or retain riders or to increase their utilization of its platform. Further, government and private business actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as travel bans, travel restrictions, shelter-in-place orders, increased reliance on work-from-home rather than working in offices, and people and businesses electing to move away from more densely populated cities, have decreased and may in the future decrease utilization of Swvl’s platform by riders including longer term.

As Swvl continues to expand into new geographic areas, it will be relying in part on referrals from existing riders to attract new riders, and therefore must ensure that its existing riders remain satisfied with its offerings. If Swvl fails to continue to grow its rider base, retain existing riders or increase the overall utilization of its platform by existing riders, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Swvl depends on its key personnel and other highly skilled personnel, and if Swvl fails to attract, retain, motivate or integrate its personnel, Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Swvl’s success depends in part on the continued service of its co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, senior management team, key technical employees and other highly skilled personnel and on Swvl’s ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate, retain and integrate highly qualified personnel for all areas of its organization. Swvl may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel to fulfill its current or future needs, and actions Swvl takes in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Swvl’s business may harm Swvl’s reputation or impact its ability to recruit qualified personnel in the future. Please see the section entitled “The COVID-19 pandemic and related responsive measures have disrupted and negatively impacted, and may in the future disrupt and negatively impact, Swvl’s business, financial condition, and operating results. Swvl cannot predict the extent to which the pandemic and related effects may in the future adversely impact its business, financial condition and operating results, and the execution of Swvl’s strategic objectives.” Swvl’s competitors may be successful in recruiting and hiring members of Swvl’s management team or other key employees, and it may be difficult to find suitable replacements on a timely basis, on competitive terms, or at all. If Swvl is unable to attract and retain the necessary personnel, particularly in critical areas of its business, Swvl may not achieve its strategic goals.

Swvl faces intense competition for highly skilled personnel. To attract and retain top talent, Swvl has had to offer, and Swvl believes it will need to continue to offer, competitive compensation and benefits packages. Job candidates and existing personnel often consider the value of the equity awards they receive in connection with their employment. If the perceived value of Swvl’s equity or equity awards declines or Swvl is unable to provide competitive compensation packages, Swvl’s ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel may be adversely affected and Swvl may experience increased attrition. Swvl may need to invest significant amounts of cash and equity to attract and retain new employees and expend significant time and resources to identify, recruit, train and integrate such employees, and Swvl may never realize returns on these investments. If Swvl is unable to effectively manage its hiring needs or successfully integrate new hires, Swvl’s efficiency, ability to meet forecasts and employee morale, productivity and retention could suffer, which could adversely affect Swvl’s business, financial condition and operating results

29

Swvl’s reputation, brand and the network effects among the drivers and riders using Swvl’s platform are important to its success, and if Swvl is not able to maintain and continue developing its reputation, brand and network effects, its business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Swvl believes that building a strong reputation and brand as a safe, reliable and affordable platform and continuing to increase the strength of the network effects among the drivers and riders using Swvl’s platform (i.e., the advantages that derive from having more drivers and riders using Swvl’s platform) are critical to its ability to attract and retain qualified drivers and riders. The successful development of Swvl’s reputation, brand and network effects will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside Swvl’s control. Negative perception of Swvl or its platform may harm Swvl’s reputation, brand and network effects, including as a result of:

If Swvl does not successfully maintain and develop its brand, reputation and network effects and successfully differentiate its offerings from the offerings of competitors, Swvl’s business may not grow, Swvl
