Item 1.Security and Issuer.

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Schedule 13D filed on June 9, 2020 (the “Schedule 13D”) by (i) WI Ventures, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“WI Ventures”), (ii) Worthington Steel of Michigan, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“WS Michigan”), and (iii) Worthington Industries, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“Worthington Industries”, and collectively together with WI Ventures and WS Michigan, the “Reporting Persons”), relates to the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Nikola Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).  The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 4141 E. Broadway Road, Phoenix, Arizona 85040.  

The filing of this Amendment represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes the exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following after the last paragraph:

 

On July 6 and 7, 2020, WI Ventures sold an aggregate of 5,000,000 of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock owned by WI Ventures.  An aggregate of 2,622,498 of such shares were sold by WI Ventures on July 6, 2020 in open market transactions and, as of that date, each of WI Ventures and the other two Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  In addition, an aggregate of 2,377,502 of such shares were sold by WI Ventures on July 7, 2020 in open market transactions.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by deleting the disclosure included therein and replacing such disclosure with the following:

As of July 8, 2020, WI Ventures directly holds and beneficially owns (with sole voting power and sole dispositive power) 14,048,020 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, representing 3.9% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock (based upon the 360,904,478 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of June 3, 2020 and not taking into account the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of warrants to purchase up to 23,890,000 shares of Common Stock that remained outstanding as of that date, as stated by the Issuer in the Issuer’s Amendment No. 1 to Form S-1 Registration Statement and the Preliminary Prospectus forming a part thereof, filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 1, 2020).  As disclosed in Item 4 of this Amendment, as of July 6, 2020, WI Ventures ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  

WS Michigan, by virtue of WS Michigan’s ownership of WI Ventures, and Worthington Industries, by virtue of Worthington Industries’ ownership of WS Michigan, may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to, and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the 14,048,020 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock held directly by WI

 


 

Ventures.  As disclosed in Item 4 of this Amendment, as of July 6, 2020, each of WS Michigan and Worthington Industries also ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.

The following sales of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock were effected in open transactions by WI Ventures (the only Reporting Person to effect any such transactions) during the period since the filing of the Schedule 13D on June 9, 2020 through the date of this Amendment:

Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims membership in a group with any of the other Reporting Persons, but they join in this filing as a result of the affiliate relationship of the Reporting Persons.  The filing of this Schedule 13D/A shall not be construed as an admission that any Reporting Person, other than WI Ventures, is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock that such Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own due to such affiliate relationship.  In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13D/A shall not be construed as an admission that any member, director, officer or affiliate of any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock that such member, director, officer or affiliate may be deemed to beneficially own.
