ROCK HILL, South Carolina, November 10, 2021 – 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) today announced that it proposes to offer $350 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “notes”), subject to market conditions and other factors. 3D Systems also intends to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a 13-day period from and including the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an additional $52.5 million aggregate principal amount of notes.

The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of 3D Systems, and interest will be payable semiannually in arrears.

The notes will mature on November 15, 2026, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted in accordance with the terms of the notes. At any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2026, the notes will be convertible at the option of holders only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, 3D Systems will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of 3D Systems’ common stock (the “common stock”) or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the election of 3D Systems, in respect of the remainder, if any, of 3D Systems’ conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted.

Holders of the notes will have the right to require 3D Systems to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture relating to the notes). 3D Systems will also be required to increase the conversion rate for holders who convert their notes in connection with certain fundamental changes or convert their notes that are called for redemption, as the case may be, prior to the maturity date. The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, for cash at 3D Systems’ option at any time, and from time to time, on or after November 20, 2024 and before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for a specified period of time.

The interest rate, conversion rate, offering price and other terms are to be determined upon pricing of the notes.

3D Systems intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include potential acquisitions, investments and strategic transactions. From time to time, 3D Systems evaluates potential acquisitions, investments and strategic transactions involving businesses, technologies or products. However, 3D Systems has not designated any specific uses of the proceeds of the offering and except as publicly disclosed, has no current agreements with respect to any material acquisitions, investments or strategic transactions.

The notes are to be offered and sold in a private placement to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities (including the shares of common stock, if any, into which the notes are convertible in certain circumstances) and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. Any offers of the notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.

The notes and any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been registered under the Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
