| Item 4. | Ownership |
| (a) | Amount beneficially owned:
Amount beneficially owned: 717,323,438 shares, which includes (i) 413,362,808 shares of Common Stock held by the Elon Musk Rev
ocable Trust dated July 22, 2003 and (ii) options to purchase 303,960,630 shares of Common Stock that are exercisable within 60 days of September 30, 2025 (the "2018 CEO Performance Award"). Amounts do not include 96,000,000 shares of restricted common stock issued to Mr. Musk (the "2025 CEO Interim Award"), which may be voted by Mr. Musk. Because the shares that Mr. Musk can keep under the 2025 CEO Interim Award and the 2018 CEO Performance Award cannot exceed the total number of options underlying the 2018 CEO Performance Award, the calculation herein includes the 2018 CEO Performance Award but excludes the 2025 CEO Interim Award to avoid double counting. Amounts do not include 423,743,904 shares of restricted common stock granted to Mr. Musk pursuant to the 2025 CEO Performance Award, which shares are subject to a voting agreement and over which an irrevocable proxy has been given to Tesla's secretary to vote the shares in accordance with the terms of the voting agreement. As such, Mr. Musk does not have dispositive or voting control over these shares. |
| (b) | Percent of class:
Percent of class: 20.3% (percentage ownership is calculated based on 3,325,819,167 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of October 16, 2025 and assumes that the shares of Common Stock underlying the stock options are deemed outstanding pursuant to SEC Rule 13-d3(d)(1)(i) with a deduction of the shares of restricted stock under the 2025 CEO Interim Award to avoid double counting those shares). %
