Use of Proceeds in ATM Offering

As previously disclosed by Velo3D, Inc. (the “Company”) on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 6, 2023, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) on such date with Needham & Company, LLC (“Needham”), as agent, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time through Needham, shares of its common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Shares”).

The offer and sale of the Shares is being made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and the related prospectus (File No. 333-268346) filed by the Company with the SEC on November 14, 2022 and declared effective by the SEC on November 21, 2022, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated February 6, 2023 and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Pursuant to the prospectus supplement, the Company may offer and sell up to $40 million of the Shares and, as of September 30, 2023, the Company had offered and sold approximately $19.6 million of the Shares. Sales of the Shares, if any, under the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be made by any method permitted that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act.

The disclosure in this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into the “Use of Proceeds” section in the prospectus supplement, which can be found on the SEC’s website: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1825079/000182507923000002/vld-atmprosuppfebruary2023.htm.

The Company currently intends to use any net proceeds from the sale of the Shares primarily for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including repayment of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes (the “Exchange Notes”).

The Exchange Notes bear interest at 6.00% per year, payable in cash, and mature on August 1, 2026. When the Company repays the principal of the Exchange Notes pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Notes, the Company is required to pay 120% of the principal amount repaid, plus any accrued interest. As described in more detail in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 29, 2023, the Company issued the Exchange Notes on November 28, 2023 in connection with the repayment and exchange of its then outstanding Senior Secured Convertible Notes.

The amounts and timing of the Company’s actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors. The Company may find it necessary or advisable to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares for other purposes. Pending the uses described above, and subject to the Company’s compliance with the covenants in the Exchange Notes, the Company plans to invest the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares in high-quality, short-term, interest-bearing obligations, investment-grade instruments or certificates of deposit.

This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities being offered, nor shall there be any sale of the securities being offered in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
