Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 7, 2025, in order to achieve an equal balance of membership among the classes of directors, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ouster, Inc. determined to move Angus Pacala from Class III, with a term expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, to Class II, with a term expiring at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. Accordingly, on the same date, Mr. Pacala, who served as a Class III director, resigned as a director and was immediately elected by the Board as a Class II director. The resignation and immediate re-election of Mr. Pacala was effected solely to rebalance the Board’s classes and, for all other purposes, Mr. Pacala’s service on the Board is deemed to have continued uninterrupted. The Board now consists of three Class I directors, two Class II directors, and two Class III directors.
