If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied b y t hese forward - looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Graf nor Velodyne presently know or that Graf and Velodyne currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward - looking sta tements.

Graf and Velodyne anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause Graf’s and Velodyne’s assessments to change. However, while Graf and Velodyne may elect to update these forward - looking statements at some point in the future, Graf and Velodyne specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward - looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Graf’ s and Velodyne’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward - looking statements. Use of Projections This Presentation contains projected financial information with respect to Velodyne . Such projected financial information constitutes forward - looking information, and is included herein for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of future results.

Page 3 | Disclaimer (Cont’d) Financial Information; Non - GAAP Financial Measures Some of the financial information and data contained in this Presentation is unaudited and does not conform to Regulation S - X. A ccordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in, the Prox y Statement that was filed by Graf with the SEC. Some of the financial information and data contained in this Presentation, suc h a s Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, has not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Operating Income plus Depreciation & Amortization and other one - time charges. Free cash flow is defined as Cash Flow from Operations minus Capital Expenditures. For a reconciliation of these non - GAAP financial measures, please see the page entitled "Reconciliation of Non - GAAP Financials" at the end of this Presentation. G raf and Velodyne believe these non - GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Velodyne’s financial condition and results of operations. Velodyne’s management uses these non - GAAP measures for purposes of budgeting, planning and other purposes. Graf and Velodyne believe that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projec ted operating results and trends in and in comparing Velodyne’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non - GAAP financial measures to investors. Management does not consider these non - GAAP measures in isola tion or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non - GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant items that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Velodyne’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by mana ge ment about what is excluded or included in determining these non - GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitation s, management presents non - GAAP financial measures together with GAAP results. You should review Velodyne’s audited financial statements, which were included in the Proxy Statement filed by Graf with the SEC. Additionally, to the extent that fo rward - looking non - GAAP financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non - GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward - looking non - GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessa ry for such reconciliation.
