SUPPLEMENT TO THE PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING OF COMMON STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 5, 2024

This supplement (this “Supplement”) to the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 13, 2024 (as such may be supplemented from time to time, the “Definitive Proxy Statement”), by Markforged Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is being filed to supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement as described in the Explanatory Note below. Unless otherwise defined in this Supplement, capitalized terms have the meaning set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

Explanatory Note

As previously disclosed, on September 25, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Nano Dimension Ltd., an Israeli company (“Nano”), and Nano US II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Nano (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Nano.

On November 20 and 21, 2024, purported Company stockholders filed complaints in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County against the Company and the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, captioned, Jones v. Markforged Holding Corporation, et al., No. 659193/2024 and Jackson v. Markforged Holding Corporation, et al., No. 659203/2024 (the “Complaints”). The Complaints assert claims for negligent misrepresentation and concealment in violation of New York State common law for purportedly misrepresenting or omitting material information from the Definitive Proxy Statement. The plaintiffs seek injunctive relief or, in the event the Merger is consummated, damages and expenses in an unspecified amount.

Moreover, in connection with the Merger, from October 25, 2024 to November 26, 2024, the Company received one demand for books and records and additional disclosures on behalf of a purported Company stockholder pursuant to 8 Del. C. § 220 and fourteen demand letters from purported stockholders seeking additional disclosures in the Definitive Proxy Statement (the “Demands”).

The Company cannot predict the outcome of any potential litigation, the Complaints or the Demands. The Company and the individual defendants intend to vigorously defend against the Complaints, Demands and any subsequently filed complaints or similar actions. It is possible additional demand letters may be received or that other lawsuits may be filed arising from the Merger between November 26, 2024 and consummation of the Merger. Absent new or significantly different allegations, the Company will not necessarily disclose such additional filings or demand letters.

The Company believes that no further disclosure is required to supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement and the supplemental disclosures contained herein are not required or necessary under applicable laws. Nevertheless, in order to moot the disclosure claims and avoid nuisance and possible expense and business delays, the Company has determined voluntarily to supplement certain disclosures in the Definitive Proxy Statement with the supplemental disclosures set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in the Supplemental Disclosures shall be deemed an admission of the legal merit of the Complaints or Demands described above or of the necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein. To the contrary, the Company specifically denies all allegations in the Complaints and Demands that any additional disclosure was or is required or is material.
