The following is a transcript of a video prepared in connection with the proposed business combination transaction between one and MarkForged, Inc.

 

Michael Papish – MarkForged, Inc. – Vice President, Marketing

 

Markforged is changing the pace of invention with the Digital Forge. The Digital Forge is an easy to use additive manufacturing platform that comprises best-in-class printers, cloud-based software, and both metal and composite materials, allowing designers, engineers and manufacturers to go from design to part anywhere in the world.

 

Kevin Hartz – one – Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder

 

I saw PayPal grow from pre-launch all the way up in on its trajectory to where it is now. And that is the payments leader online. No small feat. That's what I see in Markforged.

 

Greg Mark – MarkForged, Inc. – Chairman and Founder

 

Back in 2013, when we founded Markforged, we had a choice. At the high end, you could buy these million dollar metal machines, but the materials were toxic, flammable, and machines were hard to use. At the low end, you could buy these desktop hobby printers. They were accessible and easy to use. But they just printed plastic parts. It wasn't something you could use for end use or a real application. At Markforged, we envision a fundamentally new way to 3D print, where you get the high end, high strength parts of the million dollar machine, but you'd have the ease of use and accessibility of a desktop. And that's exactly what we set out to do. And in the process, we've begun to truly reinvent manufacturing.

 

Shai Terem – MarkForged, Inc. – President and Chief Executive Officer

 

With Markforged on the journey from 10,000 happy customers today to 100,000 happy customers in 2025. We're inviting you to join us on this journey. Our industry grew 10x from 2 billion in 2012 to almost 18 billion expected this year. Going forward, the industry expects to continue growing by another 100 billion until 2029.

 

Michael Papish

 

The amazing thing behind Markforged is it's not merely a hardware company, it's a software company. So from the beginning, it's been architected with amazing software platform to network together all the the 3D printers, and it can actually learn, so it looks and sees how a part is being printed and can actually improve that.

 

David Benheim – MarkForged, Inc. – Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder

 

And so in the future, like Markforged and closed loop manufacturing is really delivering on the company's mission which is to reinvent manufacturing, so you can build anything you imagine.

 

Rick Squires - Owner, Squires Performance

 

The printer is a big game changer. We can R and D real time now and go from concept to finished product quickly.

 

 

 

Shai Terem

 

Today, we are already reinventing manufacturing by delivering on the most demanding application in aerospace and defense, military, space exploration, industrial automation and automotive. We continue to invest into the future to ensure our customers can build anything they imagine.

 

Rick Denormand – Product Engineering Manager, Caldwell

 

Having the ability to 3D print on metal components has really improved our development process.

 

Tom Sandladerer – Tom’s 3D Reviews

 

The fact that the entire printer is super rigid, and once you close the top lid, all of that engineering point it's just hidden out of sight.

 

David Benheim

 

When you have the Markforged printer on your desk, you have a box that can turn ideas into a physical reality. There's nothing that can stop you.

 

Shai Terem

 

Markforged is the right company at the right time with the right product and the right team. I'm inviting you to join us. Nothing can stop us.
