#### Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

#### Hercules Amendment
On February 10, 2023, Ouster, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Ouster</u>" or the "<u>Company</u>"), entered into a Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the "<u>Amendment</u>") with the lenders party thereto, Hercules Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation, in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for itself and the lenders (the "<u>Agent</u>"), and the guarantors party thereto, which amends that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2022 (as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 5, 2022, and as amended by that certain Consent and Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of November 1, 2022, the "<u>Existing Credit Agreement</u>", and as further amended by the Amendment, the "<u>Agreement</u>"), to (i) increase the existing debt baskets for (a) purchase money debt and capital leases, and (b) letter of credit obligations; (ii) provide for increased flexibility to maintain cash in non-US accounts; and (iii) provide for increased flexibility to relocate certain equipment.

The Agreement continues to contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on mergers, asset sales, liens, investments, and subsidiary indebtedness.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

#### Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
As previously reported, on November 4, 2022, Ouster, Velodyne Lidar, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Velodyne</u>"), Oban Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster ("<u>Merger Sub I</u>"), and Oban Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster ("<u>Merger Sub II</u>"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>").

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified therein, on February 10, 2023, Merger Sub I merged with and into Velodyne (the "<u>First Merger</u>"), with Velodyne surviving the First Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster (the "<u>Surviving Corporation</u>"), and as soon as practicable following the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster (the "<u>Second Merger</u>," and together with the First Merger, the "<u>Mergers</u>").

At the effective time of the First Merger (the "<u>Effective Time</u>"), (i) each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Velodyne ("<u>Velodyne Common Stock</u>") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the shares that were owned by Velodyne, Ouster, Merger Sub I or Merger Sub II or any wholly owned subsidiary of Velodyne, Ouster, Merger Sub I or Merger Sub II) was converted into the right to receive 0.8204 (the "<u>Exchange Ratio</u>") validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Ouster (the "<u>Ouster Common Stock</u>," and such shares the "<u>Velodyne Common Stock Merger Consideration</u>") and (ii) each share of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Velodyne ("<u>Velodyne Preferred Stock</u>") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the shares that were owned by Velodyne, Ouster, Merger Sub I or Merger Sub II or any wholly owned subsidiary of Velodyne, Ouster, Merger Sub I or Merger Sub II) was cancelled for no consideration. No fractional shares of Ouster Common Stock were issued in the Mergers, and Velodyne stockholders received cash in lieu of fractional shares as part of the Velodyne Common Stock Merger Consideration, as specified in the Merger Agreement. Each share of Ouster Common Stock issued upon conversion of a share of Velodyne Common Stock, as described in this paragraph, that was subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture within the meaning of Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("<u>Velodyne Restricted Stock</u>") is subject to the same substantial risk of forfeiture and has the same terms and conditions, including vesting, as applied to the Velodyne Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time ("<u>Ouster Restricted Stock</u>"), except that any performance goals applicable to Velodyne Restricted Stock were deemed achieved at the greater of target and actual performance and, as of the Effective Time, the Ouster Restricted Stock issued on conversion of Velodyne Restricted Stock that was originally scheduled to vest based on performance goals became subject solely to the service-based vesting schedule otherwise applicable to the Velodyne Restricted Stock.

The Exchange Ratio resulted in Velodyne equityholders and Ouster equityholders owning approximately 50% and 50%, respectively, of the fully diluted shares of Ouster Common Stock as of the effective date of the Merger Agreement.

Also at the Effective Time, outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Velodyne Common Stock ("<u>Velodyne Warrants</u>") were assumed by Ouster and converted into warrants to purchase shares of Ouster Common Stock ("<u>Ouster Warrants</u>") under the same terms and conditions as applied to such Velodyne Warrants as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; however, the Ouster Warrants cover a number of shares of Ouster Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Velodyne Common Stock subject to each such converted Velodyne Warrant and the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and have an exercise price per share equal to the amount obtained by dividing the per share exercise price of each such converted Velodyne Warrant by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

------

At the Effective Time, all outstanding options to acquire shares of Velodyne Common Stock ("<u>Velodyne Options</u>") held by individuals who are eligible to be included as an "employee" in a registration statement filed on Form S-8 immediately following the Effective Time ("<u>Continuing Service Providers</u>") were assumed by Ouster and converted into stock options to purchase shares of Ouster Common Stock ("<u>Ouster Options</u>") with the same terms and conditions as applied to the options immediately prior to the Effective Time; however, each Ouster Option covers a number of shares of Ouster Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Velodyne Common Stock subject to the assumed Velodyne Options and the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and has an exercise price per share equal to the amount obtained by dividing the per-share exercise price of the assumed Velodyne Options by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest cent. Each Velodyne Option that was not held by a Continuing Service Provider was terminated immediately prior to the Effective Time for no consideration.

At the Effective Time, all outstanding awards of Velodyne restricted stock units ("<u>Velodyne RSU Awards</u>") held by Continuing Service Providers were converted into awards of Ouster restricted stock units ("<u>Ouster RSU Awards</u>") with the same terms and conditions as applied to the Velodyne RSU Awards immediately prior to the Effective Time; however, each Ouster RSU Award covers a number of shares of Ouster Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Velodyne Common Stock subject to the converted Velodyne RSU Award and the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Each Velodyne RSU Award that was not held by a Continuing Service Provider was terminated immediately prior to the Effective Time for no consideration.

All shares of Velodyne Restricted Stock and all Velodyne RSU Awards held by non-employee members of the Velodyne board of directors vested in full and became free of any restrictions, including any risk of forfeiture, as of the Effective Time and were treated as shares of Velodyne Common Stock under the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement has been attached as an exhibit to this report to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Velodyne or Ouster or to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about Velodyne or Ouster in their public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>"). The Merger Agreement includes representations, warranties and covenants of Velodyne and Ouster made solely for the purposes of the Merger Agreement and which may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by Velodyne and Ouster in connection with the negotiated terms of the Merger Agreement. Moreover, some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, may be subject to certain disclosures between the parties and a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to Velodyne's or Ouster's SEC filings. In addition, the representations and warranties were made for purposes of allocating risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement and should not be relied upon as establishing factual matters.

#### Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As a result of the Mergers, Velodyne has ceased to exist as a separate legal entity and therefore no longer fulfills the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Select Market ("<u>Nasdaq</u>"). On February 10, 2023, Nasdaq was notified that the Mergers had closed and it has been requested that Nasdaq (1) suspend trading of Velodyne Common Stock and the publicly traded Velodyne Warrants, (2) withdraw Velodyne Common Stock and the publicly traded Velodyne Warrants from listing on Nasdaq prior to the open of trading on February 13, 2023 and (3) file with the SEC a notification of delisting of Velodyne Common Stock and the publicly traded Velodyne Warrants under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>"). As a result, neither Velodyne Common Stock nor Velodyne Warrants will continue to be listed on Nasdaq.

In furtherance of the foregoing, Merger Sub II, which has been renamed "Velodyne, LLC", as successor to Velodyne, intends to file with the SEC certifications on Form 15 under the Exchange Act requesting the deregistration of Velodyne Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the corresponding immediate suspension of Velodyne's reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable, and to cease filing any further periodic reports with respect to Velodyne since it no longer exists as a public company.

**UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION** 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the historical financial information of Ouster and Velodyne adjusted to give effect to the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 4, 2022, by and among Ouster, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Velodyne, referred to as the merger agreement. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Merger Sub I merged with and into Velodyne, with Velodyne as the surviving entity and continuing as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporate Law, as amended, referred to as the first merger, and, as soon as practicable after the first merger and as the second step in a single integrated transaction with the first merger, Velodyne merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II as the surviving entity and continuing as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Ouster, in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, as amended, referred to as the second merger. The first merger and the second merger, together, are referred to as the "mergers." The mergers are expected to be accounted for as a business combination with Ouster identified as accounting acquirer.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 combines the historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of Ouster and the historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of Velodyne as of September 30, 2022 on a pro forma basis as if the first merger contemplated by the merger agreement had been consummated on September 30, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 combines the historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of Ouster for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of Velodyne for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, giving effect to the mergers as if the first merger had been consummated on January 1, 2021.

------

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 combines the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of Ouster for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of Velodyne for the year ended December 31, 2021, giving effect to the mergers as if the first merger had been consummated on January 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from and should be read in conjunction with the following historical financial statements and the accompanying notes:

• the (a) historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Ouster as of and for the nine
months ended September 30, 2022, and (b) historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Velodyne as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022; and

• the (a) historical audited consolidated financial statements of Ouster as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2021, and (b) historical audited consolidated financial statements of Velodyne as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021

The pro forma financial information has been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information, as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786, which is referred to herein as Article 11. The acquisition method of accounting is dependent upon certain valuations that, as of the date hereof, have yet to progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measure. Ouster has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair market value of Velodyne's identifiable assets to be acquired and Velodyne's liabilities to be assumed to reflect preliminary estimates of the fair value necessary to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. A final determination of the fair value of Velodyne's identifiable assets and liabilities, including potential intangible assets with both indefinite or finite lives, will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Velodyne that exist as of the closing date of the first merger and, therefore, cannot be made prior to the completion of the first merger. In addition, the value of the consideration to be paid by Ouster upon the consummation of the first merger will be determined based on the closing price of Ouster common stock on the closing date of the first merger. As a result of the foregoing, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. Ouster allocated the preliminary purchase price to such identifiable assets and liabilities using total preliminary consideration for the first merger. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented below. Ouster estimated the fair value of Velodyne's assets and liabilities based on discussions with Velodyne's management, preliminary valuation studies, due diligence, and information presented in Velodyne's SEC filings. Until the mergers are completed, both companies are limited in their ability to share certain information. Any increases or decreases in the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed upon completion of the final valuations will result in adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and/or statements of operations. The final purchase price allocation may be materially different than that reflected in the pro forma purchase price allocation presented herein. The pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying footnotes.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results and financial position that would have been achieved had the mergers occurred on the dates indicated, and do not reflect adjustments for any anticipated synergies, adjustments related to restructuring or integration activities, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future operating results or financial position of Ouster following the completion of the mergers. The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent management's estimates based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. Ouster and Velodyne did not have any historical relationships reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the entry into the merger agreement. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

**Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information** 

**1. Description of the Transaction** 

Pursuant to the merger agreement, Merger Sub I merged with and into Velodyne, with Velodyne as the surviving entity and continuing as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ouster, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporate Law, as amended, referred to as the first merger, and, as soon as practicable after the first merger and as the second step in a single integrated transaction with the first merger, Velodyne merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II as the surviving entity and continuing as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Ouster, in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, as amended, referred to as the second merger. The first merger and second merger are referred to collectively herein as the "mergers." The mergers are expected to be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with accounting standards codification 805 ("ASC 805") with Ouster being identified as the accounting acquirer. Upon the consummation of the first merger, Velodyne's equityholders received or have the right to receive shares of Ouster common stock at a deemed value of approximately $1.37 per share based on the closing price of Ouster common stock shares on February 8, 2023 of $1.67, and after giving effect to the exchange ratio of 0.8204 based on the terms of the merger agreement. Accordingly, 193.9 million shares of Ouster common stock are deemed to be issued and outstanding immediately following the mergers, based on Velodyne's outstanding common stock balance as of November 4, 2022 and accelerated vesting of certain restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance stock awards ("PSAs") and restricted stock awards ("RSAs") upon closing of the first merger as discussed below, 18,782,071 shares will be reserved for the potential future issuance of Ouster common stock upon the exercise of Ouster Warrants and RSUs, based on the following transactions contemplated by the merger agreement:

• the cancellation of each issued and outstanding share of Velodyne common stock and the conversion of each such
issued and outstanding share of Velodyne common stock into the right to receive 0.8204 shares of Ouster common stock, referred to as the exchange ratio;

• the automatic vesting upon change of control of approximately 0.4 million Ouster restricted common stock
units;

• the automatic vesting due to change of control and expected termination of approximately 0.9 million
Velodyne RSAs and PSAs;

• the automatic vesting upon change of control of a portion of a Velodyne warrant granted to a customer and
exercisable into approximately 19.8 million Velodyne common stock shares;

• the automatic vesting upon change of control of approximately 0.7 million Velodyne RSUs;

• the cancellation of outstanding Velodyne warrants and the conversion of each Velodyne warrant into the right to
receive an Ouster warrant to acquire a number of shares of Ouster common stock equal to the number of shares of Velodyne common stock subject to such Velodyne warrant and the exchange ratio with the corresponding adjustment to the exercise price of
the warrants;

------

• the conversion of 18,782,071 outstanding unvested restricted shares of Velodyne common stock into shares of
Ouster common stock at the exchange ratio, which shares will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting and repurchase terms) effective immediately prior to the effective time of the first merger.

Ouster determined preliminary acquisition consideration based on the fair value of Ouster's common stock of $1.67 as of February 8, 2023, as follows:

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Number of Ouster**<br>**common stock (in**<br>**millions)** | **Preliminary**<br>**acquisition**<br>**consideration**<br>**(in thousands)** |

|  Fair value of Velodyne Restricted Stock units that would be accelerated by a change of control trigger | 0.6 | 1011 |
|  Fair value of Velodyne RSAs and PSAs vested on the date of the first merger for which compensation cost had been already recognized prior to the date of the first merger | 0.7 | 1201 |

|  **Total consideration** | **192.26** | $**326959** |

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): *Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers*, which amends ASC 805 to add contract assets and contract liabilities to the list of exceptions to the recognition and measurement principles that apply to business combinations and to require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"*)*. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. In the fourth quarter of 2022, Ouster adopted the amendments and recognized contract assets acquired and contract liabilities assumed in the mergers in accordance with ASC 606. Ouster has elected to apply the practical expedient under paragraph ASC 805-20-30-29 (b) of the adopted amendments and allocated the transaction price based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation in the contract with a customer for all contracts acquired in the mergers.
