Boardroom battle could wreck Uber's bid to land another round of funding

Uber Technologies Inc is in exclusive talks to line up funding from four major investors.

But a deal, which could involve as much as $12 billion, hangs on the outcome of a courtroom brawl between two board members.

Funding would come from Japan's SoftBank Group Corp and Chinese ride-hailing juggernaut Didi Chuxing, along with the United States-based equity firms Dragoneer Investment Group and General Atlantic, according to people familiar with the matter.
