This Amendment No. 6 (this “

Schedule 14D-9
”) relating to the exchange offer by Cambria Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “
Offeror
”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Tesla, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“
Tesla
”), as disclosed in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with the exhibits thereto, as may be amended from time to time, the “
Schedule TO
”), filed by the Offeror and Tesla with the SEC on February 20, 2019, as amended on March 15, 2019, March 28, 2019, April 3, 2019, April 8, 2019, April 30, 2019, May 8, 2019 and May 13, 2019, pursuant to which the Offeror is offering to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Maxwell Common Stock.
The terms and conditions of the offer are set forth in Tesla’s prospectus/offer to exchange (the “

), which is part of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “
Form S-4
”) that Tesla has filed on February 20, 2019, as amended on March 15, 2019, March 28, 2019, April 3, 2019, April 8, 2019 and April 30, 2019 with the SEC, and which, with the related letter of transmittal, together with any further amendments or supplements, collectively constitute the “

.”
Except as set forth below, the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment No. 6.
Item 8. Additional Information.
Item 8 of Schedule 14D-9 and the disclosure is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
“Based on the terms of the Merger Agreement between Tesla and Maxwell, as well as the terms and conditions set forth in Tesla’s exchange offer materials and related letter of transmittal, if the Offer is completed on its currently scheduled expiration date, each Maxwell stockholder that participates in the Offer will receive, for each share of Maxwell Common Stock validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration date of the Offer, 0.0193 of a share of Tesla Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“

Offer Consideration
”), without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. The Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 15, 2019, unless it is further extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the Merger Agreement. The completion of the Offer remains subject to customary closing conditions.”
