OF

GOGORO INC.

On March 17, 2022, Poema Global Holdings Corp. (the “ Poema Global ”) filed and commenced mailing its definitive proxy statement related to the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to be held on March 31, 2022 to consider and vote upon, among other things, the approval of its previously announced proposed business combination (the “ Business Combination ”) with Gogoro, Inc. (“ Gogoro ”). Capitalized terms used in this Supplement No.1 to the definitive proxy statement/prospectus (this “ Supplement No. 1 ”) and not otherwise defined have the meaning given to them in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus.

This Supplement No. 1 updates, amends and supplements the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, which forms a part of Gogoro’s registration statement on Form F-4, File No. 333-261181 relating to the issuance of up to 81,775,000 ordinary shares of Gogoro (“ Gogoro Ordinary Shares ”) and warrants to purchase 26,650,000 Gogoro Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $11.50 per share in connection with the Business Combination.

The attached information updates, amends and supplements certain information contained in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus. To the extent information in this Supplement No. 1 differs from, updates or conflicts with information contained in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, the information in this Supplement No. 1 is the more current information. This Supplement No. 1 is not complete without, and should not be delivered or utilized, except in conjunction with the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, including any supplements and amendments thereto. You should read this Supplement No. 1 in conjunction with the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, including any supplements and amendments thereto.

Investing in our securities involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 25 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus.

Gogoro 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.

Gogoro is also a “foreign private issuer” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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, Gogoro’s 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, Gogoro 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.

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 Business Combination, or determined if this proxy statement/prospectus is accurate or adequate. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is March 21, 2022.

This Supplement No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, which should be read carefully and in its entirety.

SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 TO THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS

  1. Certain disclosure on page 2 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

During the past decade in Taiwan, Gogoro has built its owned battery swapping network to establish the Gogoro battery swapping ecosystem and catalyze the marketplace. In just over six years, ePTWs have grown to 10% of all PTWs. Since Gogoro launched its first ePTW in 2015, virtually 100% of all PTWs in Taiwan were ICE PTWs at that time. As of June 30, 2021, approximately 97% of electric two-wheeler sales have been delivered from Gogoro and its PBGN OEM partners. As of December 31, 2021, PBGN consisted of 11% of the two-wheeler market in Taiwan and PBGN consisted of 15% of the two-wheeler market in the top three urban centers in Taiwan. As Gogoro continues to expand and add additional OEM partners beyond Taiwan, Gogoro will rely significantly on its strong and strategic OEM partnerships with their global footprint, manufacturing agility, supply chain, and logistics capabilities. This will allow Gogoro to support its regional partners with greater speed and cost efficiency while further extending its brand’s reach. Gogoro believes that its proven battery swapping platform, enabling technologies and strong OEM partnerships will drive rapid and sustained growth opportunities into global markets in the future.

  1. Certain disclosure on page 78 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

If the PIPE Investment is not consummated and Gogoro does not waive the Minimum Available SPAC Cash Amount, the Business Combination may be terminated.

As a condition to closing the Business Combination, the Merger Agreement provides that the sum of (i) the amount of cash available in the Trust Account following the extraordinary general meeting, after deducting the amount required to satisfy Poema Global Public Shareholders’ redemption requests and net of any unpaid or contingent liabilities of Poema Global, (ii) the PIPE Investment actually received by the Company prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing and (iii) cash proceeds to be funded immediately prior to or concurrently with the Closing to the Company pursuant to certain subscription agreements, each executed by an investor, Poema Global and the Company between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Closing (“Permitted Equity Financing”) must equal to or exceed $400,000,000. Since the amount in the Trust Account is less than $400,000,000, the funds from the PIPE Investment is required in order to consummate the Business Combination, unless such condition is waived by Gogoro. While the PIPE Investors have entered into the Subscription Agreements to purchase an aggregate of up to approximately $294,820,000 immediately prior to the Closing, there can be no assurance that such parties to the Subscription Agreements will perform their obligations thereunder. If the minimum cash condition is not met or waived by Gogoro, the Business Combination may be terminated.

  1. Certain disclosure on pages 134-135 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

Overview of the Transactions Contemplated by the Merger Agreement

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties to the Merger Agreement have agreed that Merger Sub will merge with and into Poema Global (the “First Merger”), with Poema Global surviving the First Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gogoro (such company, as the surviving entity of the First Merger, the “Surviving Entity”). Immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Entity will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II surviving the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gogoro (such company, as the surviving entity of the Second Merger, the “Surviving Company”) (collectively, the “Business Combination”). We refer to the Mergers along with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement as the “Transactions,” and the agreements that govern the Transaction as the “Transaction Agreements.” As a result of the Business Combination, and upon consummation of the Business Combination and the Transactions, Merger Sub II will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Gogoro, with the shareholders of Poema Global becoming shareholders of Gogoro. The respective time at which the First Merger and the Second Merger become effective is sometimes as the “First Effective Time” and “Second Effective Time,” respectively. The closing of the Business Combination is herein referred to as the “Closing.”

On March 21, 2022, Poema Global, Gogoro, Merger Sub and Merger Sub II entered into the Amendment, which extended the Termination Date from March 31, 2022 to April 15, 2022.

Closing of the Business Combination

Unless Poema Global and Gogoro otherwise mutually agree or the Merger Agreement is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms, the Closing will take place on the date that is two (2) business days following the date on which all of the closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing) (such date, the “Closing Date”). See “— Conditions to Closing ” for a more complete description of the conditions that must be satisfied prior to Closing.

-5-

If the Transactions have not been consummated by April 15, 2022, the Merger Agreement may be terminated by either Poema Global or Gogoro. However, a party may not terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the provision described in this paragraph if such party’s breach of the Merger Agreement has been a primary cause of or resulted in the failure of the Transactions to be consummated on or before such time. See “— Termination. ”

  1. Certain disclosure on page 145 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(c) by either Poema Global or Gogoro if the Mergers have not occurred by 11:59 p.m., Hong Kong time, on April 15, 2022 (the “Termination Date”);

  1. Certain disclosure on page 151 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

Prior to the launch of Gogoro’s first ePTW in 2015, virtually 100% of all PTWs in Taiwan were ICE PTWs. Since then, in just over six years, ePTWs have grown to 10% of all PTWs sold each year, with Gogoro and our PBGN OEM partners delivering 97% of ePTW sales as of June 30, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, PBGN consisted of 11% of the two-wheeler market in Taiwan and PBGN consisted of 15% of the two-wheeler market in the top three urban centers in Taiwan. We believe our experience in rapidly penetrating this market demonstrates the attractiveness of a battery swapping model to PTW riders as they transition to more sustainable and environmentally friendly mobility.

  1. Certain disclosure on page 182 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

During the past decade in Taiwan, Gogoro has built its owned battery swapping network to establish the Gogoro battery swapping ecosystem and catalyze the marketplace. In just over six years, the ePTWs have grown to 10% of all PTWs” since Gogoro launched its first ePTW in 2015, where virtually 100% of all PTWs in Taiwan were ICE PTWs at that time. As of June 30, 2021, approximately 97% of electric two-wheelers sales have been delivered from Gogoro and its PBGN OEM partners. As of December 31, 2021, PBGN consisted of 11% of the two-wheeler market in Taiwan and PBGN consisted of 15% of the two-wheeler market in the top three urban centers in Taiwan.

Gogoro believes that its proven battery swapping platform, enabling technologies and strong OEM partnerships will drive rapid and sustained growth opportunities into global markets in the future.

  1. Certain disclosure on pages 182-183 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The Business Combination is anticipated to be accounted for as a capital transaction of Gogoro equivalent to the issuance of shares by Gogoro in exchange for the net monetary assets of Poema Global. The Business Combination does not constitute a business combination as defined in IFRS 3, Business Combinations, as Poema Global is a non-operating entity and does not meet the definition of a business under IFRS 3. The most significant change in the successor’s future reported financial position and results are expected to be an increase in cash (as compared to Gogoro’s consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2021) of up to $639.90 million assuming there are no shareholder redemptions in connection with the Business Combination. However, should there be a maximum shareholder redemption, the increase to the cash balance is expected to be approximately $294.82 million (before deducting expenses). Total non-recurring transaction costs are estimated at approximately $45 million.

  1. Certain disclosure on pages 206-209 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

  1. Certain disclosure on page 274 and 275 of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

Based on the foregoing assumptions, and including (a) the 29,482,000 Gogoro Ordinary Shares are issued to the PIPE Investors (including the 2,750,000 issued to the additional PIPE Investors pursuant to the share subscription agreements dated as of January 18, 2022, the 1,000,000 to Taishin Venture Capital Investment Co. pursuant to the share subscription agreement dated as of March 21, 2022 and the 750,000 Gogoro Ordinary Shares issued to certain affiliates of the Sponsor in connection with the PIPE Investment), (b) that none of the investors set forth in the table has purchased or purchases shares of Poema Global Class A Shares or Poema Global Class B Shares (pre-Business Combination) or ordinary shares of Gogoro or Gogoro Series C Preferred Shares (pre-Business Combination), (c) the 201,125,150 Gogoro Ordinary Shares are issued to persons who are shareholders of Gogoro immediately prior to the First Merger (including 35,973,445 Gogoro Ordinary Shares held by Genesis Trust & Corporate Services Limited (as trustee of the Gogoro Incorporated Management Trust), an employee benefit trust (“Genesis Trust”) and 7,790,997 restricted stock awards held by Genesis Trust), (d) the 12,000,000 Earnout Shares, as such shares could be issuable within 60 days of the consummation of the Business Combination, (e) 8,625,000 Poema Global Class B Shares converting into Gogoro Ordinary Shares post-Business Combination (including the 6,393,750 of the Gogoro Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor immediately after the First Effective Time that shall become unvested and subject to forfeiture immediately after the First Effective Time), and (f) Gogoro Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the 26,650,000 Gogoro Warrants as the Gogoro Warrants could be exercisable within 60 days of the consummation of the Business Combination Gogoro estimates that there would be 312,382,150 Gogoro Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination in the “no redemption” scenario, and 277,882,150 Gogoro Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination, in the “maximum redemption” scenario. If the actual facts are different from the foregoing assumptions, ownership figures in Gogoro and the columns under Post-Business Combination in the table that follows will be different. In either Scenario 1 or Scenario 2, each shareholder of Gogoro that will control 10% or more of the voting power in Gogoro following the consummation of the Business Combination was also a shareholder of Gogoro that controlled 10% or more of the voting power in Gogoro prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.
