[Transcript of video message to stockholders first used on May 31, 2024]
From the beginning, Nikola has been a catalyst of innovation, recognized for its bold vision and potential to transform the industry.
Through our unwavering commitment to execution, we established an important first-mover advantage in the market.
This momentum can be supported by approving the proposed reverse stock split and helping reset our financial foundation.
This would reduce the number of common shares outstanding and proportionately increase the dollar value per share.
The total dollar value of issued common stock will not change as a result of a reverse split, but will allow our stock to trade above the one-dollar threshold required to remain a Nasdaq-listed company.
To encourage further investor interest and improve the marketability of our common stock to a broader range of investors, we believe a successful reverse split is essential.
Nikola is on a mission— to innovate; to pioneer.
We are one-thousand dedicated employees, many here from the beginning, right there alongside you as stockholders of this company.
We’ve weathered rough terrain and come out stronger, with unshakable confidence in our leadership and board.
We believe in the same mission: to pioneer solutions for a zero emissions world.
With our trucks serving customer fleets across North America today, Nikola is proving that a zero-emissions world is possible, and we’re building it together.
Today, we call on you to reaffirm your commitment to a more sustainable, cleaner, and brighter future.
Your unwavering support guides every step to a better tomorrow.
We encourage you to vote yes to approve our proposals today.

Hello team,
We're just a few days away from our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and the deadline to vote is coming up fast.
We've shared a video on our social media platforms explaining why it's so important for our stockholders, including you, to vote in favor of all five proposals.
Your vote is crucial, especially now, as we work to keep up the momentum we've all worked so hard to build. If you were a stockholder on April 19, 2024, you can vote—even if you've since sold your shares.
It only takes a few minutes to vote. You can do it by calling (855) 935-2562 or online at www.proxyvote.com.
If you've already voted, thank you! If not, please make sure to vote by the deadline on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
Let's keep moving forward together.
Steve
