SECURITY AND ISSUER This statement relates to the Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Stratasys, Inc. (the "Issuer"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 14950 Martin Drive, Eden Prairie, MN 55344. Item 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND This statement is being filed by Cameron Truesdell ("Truesdell"), who is an individual residing in the State of Washington. Truesdell is a self-employed, private investor and citizen of the United States. Truesdell resides at 5522 308th S.E., Preston, WA 98050. Truesdell has not during the last five years been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding, or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION Truesdell has purchased a total of 308,000 shares of the Common Stock for an average price of $11.66 per share, an aggregate of $3,591,004, in open market purchases effected between September 10, 1996 and February 6, 1998. The source of Truesdell's payment of the purchase price was from his personal funds. Truesdell purchased some of the Common Stock on margin through his stockbroker, but otherwise did not use borrowed funds. Item 4. PURCHASE OF TRANSACTION Truesdell acquired the Common Stock for investment purposes only. Truesdell will continue to evaluate his ownership and voting position in the Company and may consider the following future courses of action: (i) continuing to hold the Common Stock for investment; (ii) disposing of all or a portion of the Common Stock in open market sales; (iii) acquiring additional shares of common stock in the open market or in privately-negotiated transactions; or (iv) enter into short sales or other hedging transactions with respect to the Common Stock. Truesdell had not as yet determined which of the courses of action specified in this paragraph he may ultimately take. Truesdell's future actions with regard to this investment are dependent on his evaluation of a variety of circumstances affecting the Company in the future, including the market price of the Company's Common Stock, the Company's prospects and Truesdell's portfolio. Truesdell intends to request that he be provided a position on the board of directors so as to better monitor his investment in the Company and perhaps make available to the Board his knowledge of sales and marketing, but if management declines his request or requests that he not pursue a Board position at this time, Truesdell currently intends to honor such Board position. Except as set forth above, Truesdell has no present intent or proposals that relate to or would result in: (i) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change corporate officers or the number or term of Directors; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (vi) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (vii) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (viii) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (ix) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (x) any action similar to those enumerated above. -3- Truesdell reserves the right to determine in the future whether to change the purpose or purposes described above or whether to adopt plans or proposals of the type specified above. Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER (a) As of February 6, 1998, Truesdell beneficially owns 308,000 shares of the Common Stock, which represents approximately 5.066% of the shares of Common Stock currently issued and outstanding.
