PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

228,011,646 Shares of Class A Common Stock

8,900,000 Warrants to Purchase Shares of Class A Common Stock

NUSCALE POWER CORPORATION

This prospectus relates to (1) the issuance by us of up to 178,396,711 shares (“Exchange Shares”) of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), of NuScale Power Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“NuScale Corp,” “we,” “our” or “us”), upon exchange (on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment) of Class B Units of NuScale Power, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (“NuScale LLC”) and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of NuScale Corp, and the resale of 171,755,372 Exchange Shares, the resale of which might otherwise be limited by the resale restrictions imposed on “control securities” under Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (2) the issuance by us of up to 11,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the NuScale Corp Public Warrants (as defined below); (3) the issuance by us of up to 8,900,000 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants (defined below) and the resale of such shares; and (4) the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders named in this prospectus or their permitted transferees of up to: 8,900,000 NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants (as defined below) to purchase Class A Common Stock; 23,700,002 shares of Class A Common Stock, which were issued in private placements to PIPE Investors (defined below) immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger (defined below) pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements (defined below); and 5,514,933 shares of Class A Common Stock held by Spring Valley Acquisition Sponsor Sub, LLC and its affiliates and the former officers and directors of Spring Valley Acquisition Corp (“Spring Valley Founders”).

On May 2, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Spring Valley Acquisition Corp., formerly a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Spring Valley”), completed the previously announced transactions pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 13, 2021 (as amended) between Spring Valley, Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (“Merger Sub”) and NuScale LLC, including: (a) the domestication of Spring Valley as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and the change of its name to “NuScale Power Corporation”; and (b) the merger (“Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into NuScale LLC, with NuScale LLC as the surviving business entity in the Merger, through which the combined company was reorganized in an “UP-C” structure, with NuScale Corp now serving as the sole manager of NuScale LLC. NuScale LLC is now owned in part, indirectly through NuScale Corp, by former public and private shareholders of Spring Valley and in part directly by continuing equity owners of NuScale LLC (the “Legacy NuScale Equityholders”).

After the Domestication and immediately before completion of the Merger, Spring Valley issued to certain selling securityholders, in private placements, 23,700,002 shares of Class A Common Stock at approximately $10.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $235,000,000.

We will pay certain offering fees and expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the warrants and the Class A Common Stock and will not receive proceeds from the exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units (and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock) for Class A Common Stock or from the sale of the warrants or shares of Class A Common Stock by the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their respective sales of the warrants or the Class A Common Stock.

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and trades under the symbol “SMR.” On May 11, 2022, the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock was $10.19 per share.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We were incorporated on August 20, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company under the name Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On May 2, 2022, we completed the Transactions (as defined herein), following which we were renamed “NuScale Power Corporation,” and we act as the sole manager of NuScale Power, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (“NuScale LLC”). Unless otherwise indicated, the financial information included herein is that of NuScale LLC, which, following the Transactions, became our business. We are a holding company and, accordingly, all of our assets are held directly by, and all of our operations are conducted through, NuScale LLC, and our only direct asset consists of NuScale LLC Class A Units. As the manager of NuScale LLC, we have the full, exclusive, and complete discretion to manage and control the business of NuScale LLC and to take all action we deem necessary, appropriate, advisable, incidental, or convenient to accomplish the purposes of NuScale LLC set forth in its operating agreement. We may not be removed as the manager of NuScale LLC.

Because we had limited operations before the Transactions, NuScale LLC is our “predecessor” for financial reporting purposes and we present in this prospectus pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements that give

ii

effect to the Merger in the historical periods presented. The financial statements of NuScale LLC for periods following the Transactions will be prepared on a consolidated basis with ours.

Certain monetary amounts, percentages and other figures included in this prospectus have been subject to rounding adjustments. Accordingly, figures shown as totals in certain tables and charts may not be the arithmetic aggregation of the figures that precede them, and figures expressed as percentages in the text may not total 100% or, as applicable, when aggregated may not be the arithmetic aggregation of the percentages that precede them.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this prospectus to the “Company,” “NuScale,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to the business of NuScale LLC, which became the business of NuScale Power Corporation following the consummation of the Transactions.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

This prospectus includes, and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus may include, estimates regarding market and industry data and forecasts, which are based on our own estimates utilizing our management’s knowledge of and experience in, as well as information obtained from trade and business organizations, and other contacts in the market sectors in which we compete, and from statistical information obtained from publicly available information, industry publications and surveys, reports from government agencies, and reports by market research firms. We confirm that, where such information is reproduced herein, such information has been accurately reproduced and that, so far as we are aware and are able to ascertain from information published by publicly available sources and other publications, no facts have been omitted that would render the reproduced information inaccurate or misleading. Industry publications, reports, and other published data generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but we cannot assure you that the information contained in these reports, and therefore the information contained in this prospectus or any amendment or supplement to this prospectus that is derived therefrom, is accurate or complete. Our estimates of our market position may prove to be inaccurate because of the method by which we obtain some of the data for our estimates or because this information cannot always be verified with complete certainty due to the limits on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process, and other limitations and uncertainties. As a result, although we believe our sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness.

NuScale Corp

NuScale Power Corporation is an advanced nuclear technology company that is developing an SMR to generate steam that can be used for electrical generation, district heating, desalination, hydrogen production and other process heat applications. For more information regarding NuScale Corp, see the sections entitled “Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Background

NuScale Power Corporation (formerly named “Spring Valley Acquisition Corp.”) was a blank check company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Spring Valley, Merger Sub and NuScale LLC entered into Merger Agreement on December 13, 2021, as amended, and the following transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were completed on May 2, 2022:

● Spring Valley changed its jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands, domesticated as a corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware, and changed its name to “NuScale Power Corporation”;

● NuScale Corp was designated as the sole manager of NuScale LLC;

● Merger Sub merged into NuScale LLC with NuScale LLC surviving; and

● the combined company was organized in an “UP-C” structure, in which substantially all of the assets and business of the combined company are held by NuScale LLC.

As a result of these transactions, former public shareholders of Spring Valley own shares of Class A Common Stock of NuScale Corp; NuScale Corp and the Legacy NuScale Equityholders hold NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units, respectively; and Legacy NuScale Equityholders hold a number of shares of Class B Common Stock (which represent a right to cast one vote per share at the NuScale Corp level, and carry no economic rights) equal to the number of NuScale LLC Class B Units held by the Legacy NuScale Equityholders.

The following diagram illustrates in simplified terms the structure of NuScale Corp and NuScale LLC.

In connection with entering into the Merger Agreement, Spring Valley entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain PIPE Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors party thereto agreed to purchase an aggregate of 21,300,002 shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the Closing at an aggregate purchase price of $211,000,000. On March 29, 2022, Spring Valley entered into a Subscription Agreement with another PIPE Investor, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investor party thereto agreed to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the Closing for a purchase price of $10,000,000. In addition, on April 4, 2022, Spring Valley entered into a Subscription Agreement with another PIPE Investor, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investor party thereto agreed to purchase 1,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to Closing for a purchase price of $15,000,000. On April 26, 2022, Spring Valley entered into an Amendment to Subscription Agreement with one of the PIPE Investors to change its subscription from 200,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for a purchase price of $2,000,000 to 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for a purchase price of $1,000,000.

Summary of Risk Factors (page 9)

The investment in our securities involve significant risks, and you should carefully read and consider the factors discussed under “Risk Factors.” The following is a summary of some of these risks. If any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Structure and Governance

● We are subject to risks related to our dependency on NuScale LLC to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and pay dividends;

● If NuScale LLC were treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax or state tax purposes, then the amount available for distribution by NuScale LLC could be substantially reduced and the value of NuScale Corp shares could be adversely affected;

● In certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual tax benefits NuScale Corp realizes;

2

● NuScale Corp is a “controlled company” under the NYSE listing standards, and as a result, its stockholders may not have certain corporate protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies; and

● Spring Valley identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness could continue to adversely affect NuScale Corp’s ability to report its results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner.

Risks Related to NuScale LLC’s Business and Industry

● NuScale LLC has not yet delivered an NPM to a customer or entered into a binding contract with a customer to deliver NPMs, and there is no guarantee that it will be able to do so;

● Competitors in China and Russia currently operate commercial SMRs and may have advantages in marketing their SMRs to potential customers;

● NuScale LLC may be unable to charge Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (UAMPS), its first customer, for some costs NuScale LLC has incurred and it may be required to reimburse UAMPS if NuScale LLC fails to achieve specified performance measures;

● Any delays in the development and manufacture of NPMs and related technology, the failure of any commercial or demonstration missions, or the failure to timely deliver NPMs to customers may adversely impact NuScale LLC’s business and financial condition;

● NuScale LLC has incurred significant losses since inception, expects to incur losses in the future, and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability;

● The cost of electricity generated from nuclear sources may not be cost competitive with other electricity generation sources in some markets, and NuScale LLC may fail to effectively incorporate updates to the design, construction, and operations of NuScale LLC plants to ensure cost competitiveness, which could materially and adversely affect NuScale LLC’s business;

● The market for SMRs is not yet established and may not achieve the growth potential expected or may grow more slowly than expected;

● NuScale LLC’s commercialization strategy relies heavily on its relationship with Fluor, and other strategic investors and partners, who may have interests that diverge from NuScale LLC and who may not be easily replaced if their relationships terminate;

● NuScale LLC may be unable to manage its future growth effectively, which could make it difficult to execute its business strategy;

● If manufacturing and construction issues are not identified prior to design finalization, long-lead procurement, and/or module fabrication, then those issues will be realized during production, fabrication, or construction and may impact plant deployment cost and schedule;

● NuScale LLC and its customers operate in a politically sensitive environment, and may be affected by the public perception of nuclear energy and accidents, terrorist attacks or other high-profile events involving nuclear materials;

● NuScale LLC’s supply base may not be able to scale to the production levels necessary to meet sales projections, and a lack of availability and cost of component raw materials may affect the manufacturing processes for plant equipment and increase NuScale LLC’s costs;

3

● NuScale LLC is highly dependent on its senior management team and other highly skilled personnel, and may not be able to successfully implement its business strategy if it is unable to attract highly qualified personnel;

● NuScale LLC may require additional future funding;

● NuScale LLC may be unable to adequately protect its intellectual property rights, in particular its rights in non-U.S. jurisdictions, and may be subject to infringement claims from others;

● NuScale LLC’s SDA (defined below) application for the 77 MWe power module has not yet been submitted to the NRC, and its approval is not guaranteed;

● NuScale LLC’s design is only approved in the United States and it must obtain approvals on a country- by-country basis before it can sell its products abroad, which approvals may be delayed or denied or which may require modification to its design;

● NuScale LLC’s customers must obtain additional, site-specific regulatory approvals before they can construct power plants using NPMs, which may be delayed or denied; and

● NuScale LLC’s business is subject to a wide variety of extensive and evolving laws and regulations — including export and import controls, nuclear material and nuclear power regulations, and environmental regulations — and changes in and/or failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on its business.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Shares of Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp Warrants

● We are subject to risks related to the volatility of the price of our Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp’s warrants;

● We are subject to risks related to the sale of total outstanding shares after the immediate resale restrictions have elapsed, which could cause the market price of our Class A Common Stock to drop significantly;

● NuScale Corp Warrants are exercisable for Class A Common Stock, which, if exercised, would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our stockholders; and

● A market for shares of the Class A Common Stock may fail to develop.

Emerging Growth Company Status

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies (“EGCs”) from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement under the Securities Act declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with such standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-EGCs but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will remain an EGC until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) 2025, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. We expect to remain an EGC until December 31, 2025, the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO on November 27, 2020.

SUMMARY HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA

FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND OTHER DATA

The following table presents the summary historical combined financial and other data for NuScale LLC and its subsidiaries and the summary pro forma condensed consolidated financial data for NuScale Corp for the periods and at the dates indicated. NuScale Corp is a holding company, and its sole material asset is a controlling equity interest in NuScale LLC. NuScale Corp operates and controls all of the business and affairs of NuScale LLC and, through NuScale LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts our business. NuScale LLC is the predecessor of NuScale Corp for financial reporting purposes. As a result, the consolidated financial statements of NuScale Corp will recognize the assets and liabilities received in the reorganization at their historical carrying amounts, as reflected in the historical financial statements of NuScale LLC. NuScale Corp will consolidate NuScale LLC in its consolidated financial statements and record a non-controlling interest related to the NuScale LLC Common Units held by the members of NuScale LLC on its consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations. The summary statements of operations data and summary statements of cash flows data presented below for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021 and the summary balance sheet data presented below as of December 31, 2020 and 2021 have been derived from the financial statements of NuScale LLC included elsewhere in this prospectus. The summary financial information of NuScale LLC as of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2022 was derived from the unaudited condensed financial statements of NuScale LLC included elsewhere in this prospectus. The unaudited condensed financial statements of NuScale LLC have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and, in our opinion, have included all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position and results of operations. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

The summary historical consolidated financial and other data of NuScale Corp has not been presented because, prior to the consummation of the Transactions, NuScale Corp was a blank check company with no business transactions or activities, and assets or liabilities, during the periods presented, other than those activities, assets, and liabilities related to its search for a potential initial business combination.

Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any future period. You should read the summary historical consolidated financial data below, together with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, the audited financial statements of Spring Valley and related notes thereto, our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, and the unaudited financial statements of Spring Valley and related notes thereto, each included elsewhere in this prospectus, as well as “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and the other information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

The summary unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data of NuScale Corp presented below have been derived from our unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The summary unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations data for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2021. The summary unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of March 31, 2022 gives effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2022.

The summary unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial data is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the relevant transactions had been consummated on the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of future operating results or financial position. Spring Valley and NuScale LLC have not had any historical relationship prior to the Transactions. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies. The financial

RISK FACTORS

We have identified the following risks and uncertainties that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or reputation. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are not material may also significantly affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or reputation. Our business could be harmed by any of these risks. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information contained in this prospectus, including our financial statements and related notes.

Risks Related to Our Structure and Governance

NuScale Corp is a holding company and its only material asset is its interest in NuScale LLC, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by its subsidiaries to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and pay dividends.

NuScale Corp is a holding company with no material assets other than its ownership of the NuScale LLC Common Units. As a result, NuScale Corp has no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow. NuScale Corp’s ability to pay taxes, cause NuScale LLC to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, and pay dividends depends on the financial results and cash flows of NuScale LLC and the distributions it receives (directly or indirectly) from NuScale LLC. Deterioration in the financial condition, earnings or cash flow of NuScale LLC for any reason could limit or impair its ability to pay such distributions. Additionally, to the extent that NuScale Corp needs funds and NuScale LLC is restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of any financing arrangements, or NuScale LLC is otherwise unable to provide such funds, it could materially adversely affect NuScale Corp’s liquidity and financial condition.

Subject to the discussion herein, NuScale LLC is treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes and, as such, generally will not be subject to any entity-level United States federal income tax. Instead, taxable income will be allocated to holders of NuScale LLC Common Units. Accordingly, NuScale Corp will be required to pay income taxes on its allocable share of any net taxable income from NuScale LLC. Under the terms of the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, NuScale LLC is obligated to make tax distributions to holders of the NuScale LLC Common Units calculated at certain assumed tax rates. In addition to income taxes, NuScale Corp is also expected to incur expenses related to its operations, including payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be significant, and some of which will be reimbursed by NuScale LLC (excluding payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement). NuScale Corp intends to cause NuScale LLC to make ordinary distributions and tax distributions to holders of the NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units on a pro rata basis in amounts sufficient to cover all applicable taxes, relevant operating expenses, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and dividends, if any, declared by NuScale Corp. However, as discussed above, NuScale LLC’s ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions, including, but not limited to, retention of amounts necessary to satisfy the obligations of NuScale LLC and restrictions on distributions that would violate any applicable restrictions contained in NuScale LLC’s debt agreements, if any, any applicable law or that would have the effect of rendering NuScale LLC insolvent. To the extent that NuScale Corp is unable to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; provided, however, that nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be substantial.

Additionally, although NuScale LLC generally will not be subject to any entity-level United States federal income tax, it may be liable under recent United States federal tax legislation for adjustments to prior year tax returns, absent an election to the contrary. In the event NuScale LLC’s calculations of taxable income are incorrect, NuScale LLC and its members, including NuScale Corp, in later years may be subject to material liabilities pursuant to this legislation and its related guidance.

9

If NuScale LLC were treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax or state tax purposes, then the amount available for distribution by NuScale LLC could be substantially reduced and the value of NuScale Corp shares could be adversely affected.

An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes (such as NuScale LLC) may nonetheless be treated as, and taxable as, a corporation if it is a “publicly traded partnership” unless an exception to such treatment applies. An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes will be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” if interests in such entity are traded on an established securities market or interests in such entity are readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof. If NuScale LLC is determined to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” (and taxable as a corporation) for United States federal income tax purposes, it would be taxable on its income at the United States federal income tax rates applicable to corporations and distributions by NuScale LLC to its partners (including NuScale Corp) could be taxable as dividends to such partners to the extent of the earnings and profits of NuScale LLC. In addition, we would no longer have the benefit of increases in the tax basis of NuScale LLC’s assets as a result of exchanges of NuScale LLC Class B Units. Pursuant to the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, certain Legacy NuScale Equityholders may, from time to time, subject to the terms of the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, exchange their interests in NuScale LLC and have such interests redeemed by NuScale LLC for cash or Class A Common Stock. While such exchanges could be treated as trading in the interests of NuScale LLC for purposes of testing “publicly traded partnership” status, the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement contains restrictions on redemptions and exchanges of interests in NuScale LLC that are intended to prevent NuScale LLC entities from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for United States federal income tax purposes. Such restrictions are designed to comply with certain safe harbors provided for under applicable United States federal income tax law. NuScale Corp may also impose additional restrictions on exchanges that it determines to be necessary or advisable so that NuScale LLC is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for United States federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, while such position is not free from doubt, NuScale LLC is expected to be operated such that it is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes and we intend to take the position that NuScale LLC is so treated as a result of exchanges of its interests pursuant to the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement.

Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, NuScale Corp will be required to pay to certain Legacy NuScale Equityholders 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis and related tax benefits resulting from any exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock or cash in the future, and those payments may be substantial.

The Legacy NuScale Equityholders may in the future exchange their NuScale LLC Class B Units for Class A Common Stock (or, upon the election of NuScale Corp, cash in an amount equal to the net proceeds raised by selling such Class A Common Stock in a contemporaneous underwritten offering), subject to certain restrictions. Such transactions are expected to result in increases in NuScale Corp’s share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of NuScale LLC. These increases in tax basis may result in increased tax depreciation and amortization deductions and therefore reduce the amount of income or franchise tax that NuScale Corp would otherwise be required to pay in the future had such sales and exchanges never occurred.

NuScale Corp is party to the Tax Receivable Agreement with NuScale LLC, each of the TRA Holders (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) party thereto and Fluor, in its capacity as TRA Representative (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement). Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, NuScale Corp will be required to pay 85% of the net cash tax savings from certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis and other tax benefits resulting from any exchange by the TRA Holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock or cash in the future. Any such payments to TRA Holders will reduce the cash provided by the tax savings generated from future exchanges that would otherwise have been available to NuScale Corp for other uses, including reinvestment or dividends to Class A stockholders. Cash tax savings from the remaining 15% of the tax benefits will be retained by NuScale Corp. NuScale Corp’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement accelerate upon a change in control and certain other termination events, as defined therein. These payments are the obligation of NuScale Corp and not of NuScale LLC. The actual increase in NuScale Corp’s allocable share of NuScale LLC’s tax basis in its assets, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges, the market

10

price of the Class A Common Stock at the time of the exchange, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable and the amount and timing of the recognition of NuScale Corp’s income. While many of the factors that will determine the amount of payments that NuScale Corp will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement are outside of its control, NuScale Corp expects that the payments it will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on NuScale Corp’s financial condition. Any payments made by NuScale Corp under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to NuScale Corp. To the extent that NuScale Corp is unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, the unpaid amounts will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; however, nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a material breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement, as further described below. Furthermore, NuScale Corp’s future obligation to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could make it a less attractive target for an acquisition, particularly in the case of an acquirer that cannot use some or all of the tax benefits that may be deemed realized under the Tax Receivable Agreement. See the section entitled “Certain Relationship and Related Person Transactions — Tax Receivable Agreement.”

In certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may exceed the actual tax benefits NuScale Corp realizes.

Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be based on the tax reporting positions that NuScale Corp determines, and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or another taxing authority may challenge all or any part of the tax basis increases, as well as other tax positions that NuScale Corp takes, and a court may sustain such a challenge. In the event that any tax benefits initially claimed by NuScale Corp are disallowed, the Legacy NuScale Equityholders will not be required to reimburse NuScale Corp for any excess payments that may previously have been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, for example, due to adjustments resulting from examinations by taxing authorities. Rather, excess payments made to such holders will be netted against any future cash payments otherwise required to be made by NuScale Corp under the Tax Receivable Agreement, if any, after the determination of such excess. However, a challenge to any tax benefits initially claimed by NuScale Corp may not arise for a number of years following the initial time of such payment or, even if challenged early, such excess cash payment may be greater than the amount of future cash payments that NuScale Corp might otherwise be required to make under the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement and, as a result, there might not be future cash payments against which to net. As a result, in certain circumstances NuScale Corp could make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in excess of NuScale Corp’s actual income tax savings, which could materially impair NuScale Corp’s financial condition.

Moreover, the Tax Receivable Agreement provides that, in certain events, including a change of control, breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement, or NuScale Corp exercise of early termination rights, NuScale Corp obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will accelerate and NuScale Corp will be required to make a lump-sum cash payment to the Legacy NuScale Equityholders party to the Tax Receivable Agreement equal to the present value of all forecasted future payments that would have otherwise been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which lump-sum payment would be based on certain assumptions, including those relating to NuScale Corp future taxable income. The lump-sum payment could be substantial and could exceed the actual tax benefits that NuScale Corp realizes subsequent to such payment because such payment would be calculated assuming, among other things, that NuScale Corp would have certain tax benefits available to it and that NuScale Corp would be able to use the potential tax benefits in future years.

There may be a material negative effect on NuScale Corp’s liquidity if the payments required to be made by NuScale Corp under the Tax Receivable Agreement exceed the actual income or franchise tax savings that NuScale Corp realizes. Furthermore, NuScale Corp’s obligations to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control.

NuScale Corp is a “controlled company” within the meaning of NYSE rules and, as a result, qualifies for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. The stockholders of NuScale Corp do not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.

Fluor owns a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” under the NYSE rules. As a controlled company, we are exempt from certain corporate governance requirements, including those that would otherwise require our Board to have a majority of independent directors and require that we either establish compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees, each comprised entirely of independent directors, or otherwise ensure that the compensation of our executive officers and nominees of directors are determined or recommended to our board of directors by independent members of our board of directors. To the extent we rely on one or more of these exemptions, our stockholders will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE corporate governance requirements.

We are an EGC within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to “emerging growth companies,” this could make our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.

We are an EGC within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not EGCs including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As a result, our shareholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. We could be an EGC until December 31, 2025, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700,000,000 as of any June 30 before that time, in which case we would no longer be an EGC as of the following December 31. We cannot predict whether investors will find our securities less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of our securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the trading prices of our securities may be more volatile.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts EGCs from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-EGCs but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

Spring Valley identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness could continue to adversely affect NuScale Corp’s ability to report its results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner.

Prior to the closing of the Transactions, Spring Valley’s management was responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Spring Valley’s management was likewise required, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses identified through such evaluation in those internal controls. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As described in the Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report Form on 10-K filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021, Spring Valley identified a material weakness in Spring Valley’s internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for a significant transaction related to the warrants we issued in connection with our initial public offering in

12

November 2020. As a result of this material weakness, Spring Valley’s management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2020. This material weakness resulted in a material misstatement of our warrant liabilities, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, additional paid-in capital, accumulated deficit and related financial disclosures as of and for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020.

Spring Valley’s management and its audit committee also concluded that it was appropriate to restate previously issued financial statements for the affected periods.

As described in Amendment No. 2 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 21, 2021, Spring Valley identified a material weakness in Spring Valley’s internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its accounting classification of the Public Shares and the calculation of earnings per share. As a result of this material weakness, Spring Valley’s management concluded that Spring Valley’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2020. Historically, a portion of Spring Valley Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was classified as permanent equity to maintain shareholders’ equity greater than $5 million on the basis that Spring Valley would not redeem its Class A ordinary shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001, as described in the charter. Pursuant to Spring Valley’s re-evaluation of Spring Valley’s application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its accounting classification of its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, Spring Valley’s management determined that the Class A ordinary shares include certain provisions that require classification of all of the Class A ordinary shares as temporary equity regardless of the net tangible assets redemption limitation contained in the charter.

To respond to these material weaknesses, Spring Valley devoted, and NuScale plans to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance these processes to better evaluate our research and understanding of the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of the remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

Any failure to maintain such internal control could adversely impact our ability to report NuScale’s financial position and results from operations on a timely and accurate basis. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the NYSE, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. In either case, there could result a material adverse effect on our business. Failure to timely file will cause us to be ineligible to utilize short form registration statements on Form S-3 or Form S-4, which may impair our ability to obtain capital in a timely fashion to execute our business strategies or issue shares to effect an acquisition. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our securities.

We can give no assurance that the measures Spring Valley has taken and that NuScale plans to take in the future will remediate the material weaknesses identified or that any additional material weaknesses or restatements of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. In addition, even if NuScale is successful in strengthening its controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements.

Risks Related to NuScale’s Business and Industry

These risk factors are not exhaustive, and investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to the business, financial condition, and prospects of NuScale LLC and its business, financial condition, and prospects. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in this prospectus, including matters addressed in the section titled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

13

NuScale may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to it, or that it currently deems immaterial, which may also impair NuScale business or financial condition. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of NuScale LLC and notes to the financial statements included herein.

Commercialization Risk Factors

We have not yet commercialized or sold NPMs, and a number of factors could prevent, delay or hinder commercialization.

We have not yet entered into a binding contract with a customer to deliver NPMs, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to do so.

The planned initial deployment of our NPM is subject to NuScale LLC reaching a binding agreement for its scope of supply with Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (“UAMPS”) and UAMPS reaching a binding engineering, procurement, and construction (“EPC”) contract with Fluor. If NuScale LLC and Fluor do not enter into binding agreements with UAMPS, deployment of our NPM, power plants, and ongoing services could be significantly delayed, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Memoranda of understanding we have entered into with other potential purchasers are contingent, and may not result in binding agreements for the purchase of our products or services.

Competitors in China and Russia currently operate commercial SMRs, and may have advantages in marketing their SMRs to potential customers.

Competitors in Russia and China, such as Rosatom and China National Nuclear Corporation, currently operate commercial SMRs in those countries. Although their SMR designs have not been approved by the NRC or in any jurisdiction outside of their native countries, those competitors may have a competitive advantage if they are able to obtain approval comparable to Standard Design Approval (“SDA”), or if they can otherwise demonstrate to potential customers the value and benefits of their SMRs, particularly in jurisdictions that have less stringent regulatory requirements. In addition, these competitors may have access to greater government or other funding to develop and commercialize their SMRs than we do.

We may be unable to charge UAMPS, our first customer, for some costs we have incurred and we may be required to reimburse UAMPS if we fail to achieve specified performance measures.

We entered into a Cost Sharing Option Agreement and a Subaward Agreement in 2015 (collectively, the “CSO and Subaward Agreements”) that facilitate sharing a DOE award with UAMPS for early siting and licensing for the Carbon Free Power Project (“CFPP”). Under those agreements, the DOE has been paying half of the costs and UAMPS and NuScale LLC have shared the other half. We have incurred reimbursable costs of $4.1 million under the CSO and Subaward Agreements. If UAMPS determines to file a license application with the NRC for the CFPP, UAMPS must then pay us for those costs; however, if UAMPS, or its wholly-owned subsidiary, CFPP LLC, does not file a license application, we will be unable to bill those costs to UAMPS.

In conjunction with certain agreements related to the CFPP awarded to Fluor, pursuant to which we are developing the NRC license application for the CFPP and performing other site licensing and development activities, we entered into a Development Cost Reimbursement Agreement with UAMPS (the “DCRA”).

Under the DCRA, we may be obligated to refund to UAMPS a percentage of its net development costs up to a specified cap, which vary based on the stage of project development, if (1) at specified times in the development of the CFPP, the estimated cost of electricity (based on increasingly accurate project cost estimates at various stages of development) exceeds an agreed target cost of $58.00/megawatt-hour (subject to adjustment as specified in the DCRA), or if Fluor does not timely provide a required comparison (which we refer to as an economic competitive test, or “ECT”), (2) the NRC does not issue design certification for the NuScale design by March 31, 2023, (3) the NRC does not issue SDA for the NuScale design within one year after the NRC’s published date for such approval after acceptance of the SDA application, or (4) NuScale LLC materially breaches the DCRA and the DCRA is terminated for cause. The

14

reimbursement percentage and cap is 100% and $57 million until UAMPS or CFPP LLC submit a combined construction and operating license for approval to the NRC (“COLA”). After the COLA is submitted, the reimbursement percentage is 20% and (a) the cap for an ECT failure before final notice to proceed with NuScale plant construction is $60 million and (b) the cap for termination of the DCRA for cause is $120 million through delivery of a “Class 2” project cost estimate (an estimate that is accurate within -15% to +20%) and thereafter $180 million through the final notice to proceed, which requires a “Class 1” project cost estimate (an estimate that is accurate within -10% to +15%).

Any delays in the development and manufacture of NPMs and related technology may adversely impact our business and financial condition.

We have previously experienced, and may experience in the future, delays or other complications in the design, manufacture, production and delivery of NPMs and related technology that could prevent us from delivering NPMs in 2027 or beyond. If delays like this recur, if our remediation measures and process changes do not continue to be successful, if we fail to find a satisfactory manufacturer or if we experience issues with planned manufacturing activities or design and safety, we could experience issues or delays in sustaining or further increasing production and sales of NPMs.

If we encounter difficulties in scaling our production and delivery capabilities, if we fail to develop and successfully commercialize our NPMs and related technologies, if we fail to develop such technologies before our competitors or if such technologies fail to perform as expected, are inferior to those of our competitors or are perceived as less safe than those of our competitors, our business and financial condition could be materially and adversely impacted.

We have not yet delivered NPMs to customers, and any setbacks we may experience during our first commercial delivery planned for 2028 and other demonstration and commercial missions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation, and could harm our reputation.

The success of our business will depend on our ability to successfully deliver NPMs to customers on- time and on-budget at guaranteed performance levels, which would tend to establish greater confidence in our subsequent customers. There is no guarantee that our planned NPM deployments will be successful. There can be no assurance that we will not experience operational or process failures and other problems during our first commercial deployment or any planned deployment thereafter. Any failures or setbacks, particularly on our first commercial deployments, could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Any actual or perceived safety or reliability issues may result in significant reputational harm to our businesses, in addition to tort liability and other costs that may arise. Such issues could result in delaying or cancelling planned deployments of NPMs, increased regulation, or other systemic consequences. Our inability to meet our safety standards or adverse publicity affecting our reputation as a result of accidents or mechanical failures could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We have incurred significant losses since inception, we expect to incur losses in the future, and we may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

We have incurred significant losses since our inception well beyond the support we have received through cost-sharing awards from the DOE. We have not yet delivered NPMs or VOYGR plants to customers, and it is difficult for us to predict our future operating results. As a result, our losses may be larger than anticipated, and we may not achieve profitability when expected or at all; even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase profitability.

We expect our operating expenses to increase over the next several years as we commence deployment of NPMs, continue to refine and streamline our design and manufacturing processes for our NPMs, make technical improvements, hire additional employees and continue research and development efforts relating to new products and technologies. These efforts may be more costly than we expect and may not result in increased revenue, profits or growth in our business. Any failure to increase our revenue sufficiently to keep pace with our expenses could prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability or positive cash flow. Furthermore, if our future growth and operating

15

performance fail to meet investor or analyst expectations, or if we have future negative cash flow or losses resulting from our investment in acquiring customers or expanding our operations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

The cost of electricity generated from nuclear sources may not be cost competitive with other electricity generation sources in some markets, which could materially and adversely affect our business.

Some electricity markets experience very low power prices due to a combination of subsidized renewables and low-cost fuel sources, and NuScale LLC may not be able to compete in these markets unless the benefits of the carbon-free, reliable and/or resilient energy generation provided by our NPMs are sufficiently valued in the market. Given the relatively lower electricity prices in the United States when compared to many international markets, the risk may be greater with respect to business in the United States. Moreover, historically very low (or negative) market prices are the result of surplus generation that cannot be curtailed and are transitory. These low prices do not reflect a price to beat for NuScale’s technology.

The market for SMRs generating nuclear power is not yet established and may not achieve the growth potential we expect or may grow more slowly than expected.

The market for SMRs has not yet been established. Our estimates for the total addressable market are based on a number of internal and third-party estimates, including our potential contracted revenue, the number of potential customers who have expressed interest in our NPMs, assumed prices and production costs for our NPMs, our ability to leverage our current logistical and operational processes, and general market conditions. However, our assumptions and the data underlying our estimates may not be correct and the conditions supporting our assumptions or estimates may change at any time, thereby reducing the predictive accuracy of these underlying factors. As a result, our estimates of the annual total addressable market for our services, as well as the expected growth rate for the total addressable market for our services, may prove to be incorrect.

Our commercialization strategy relies heavily on our relationship with Fluor and other strategic investors and partners, who may have interests that diverge from ours and who may not be easily replaced if our relationships terminate.

We rely heavily upon our relationship with Fluor, our majority owner, and our relationships with other of our investors and strategic partners to commercialize our NPM and our other products and services. We granted Fluor certain rights to provide engineering, procurement and construction services in connection with NuScale LLC’s general plant design, project-specific designs and services typically performed by Fluor or its direct competitors. Similarly, we have entered into certain agreements with Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction Company, Ltd. (“Doosan”), IHI Corporation (“IHI”), and Sarens Nuclear & Industrial Services, LLC (“Sarens”) for certain planning, engineering, manufacturing and support activities, and JGC Holdings Corporation (“JGC”), an affiliate of Japan NuScale LLC Innovation, LLC, related to the EPC and commissioning of the first NuScale LLC plant in the United States and in other specific geographic areas, and with Samsung C&T Corporation (“Samsung C&T”) related to certain EPC activities.

Our strategic partners may have interests that diverge from our interests, and which may hinder our ability to negotiate sales to customers. If we lose our agreements with strategic partners, we may need to find new contractors who may have less experience designing and building nuclear plants. This could substantially hinder our ability to expand our production capacity and installation of VOYGR plants, and could affect our business and our prospects.

We may be unable to manage our future growth effectively, which could make it difficult to execute our business strategy.

If our operations grow as planned, we may need to expand our sales and marketing, research and development, supply and manufacturing functions, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to scale the business and the manufacture of NPMs as planned, as there is no guarantee that we will be able to find suitable locations or partners for the expanded manufacture and operation of our NPMs or to broaden our internal capabilities.

16

Any failure to effectively incorporate updates to the design, construction, and operations of NuScale LLC plants to ensure cost competitiveness could reduce the marketability of the NuScale LLC design and has the potential to impact deployment schedules.

Updating the design, construction, and operations of NuScale LLC plants will be necessary to their competitiveness and attractiveness in the market, particularly in the United States where the price of power is generally lower. If we are not able to achieve and maintain cost-competitiveness in the United States or elsewhere, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

If manufacturing and construction issues are not identified prior to design finalization, long-lead procurement, and/or module fabrication, then those issues will be realized during production, fabrication, or construction and may impact plant deployment cost and schedule.

Our NPM design will be actively managed through design reviews, prototyping, involvement of external partners and application of industry lessons, but we could still fail to identify latent manufacturing and construction issues early enough to avoid negative effects on production, fabrication, construction or ultimate performance of our NPMs or plants. Where these issues arise at such later stages of deployment, plant deployment could be subject to greater costs or be significantly delayed, which could materially and adversely affect our business.

We and our customers operate in a politically sensitive environment, and the public perception of nuclear energy can affect our customers and us.

The risks associated with radioactive materials and the public perception of those risks can affect our business. Opposition by third parties can delay or prevent the construction of new nuclear power plants and can limit the operation of nuclear reactors. Adverse public reaction to developments in the use of nuclear power could directly affect our customers and indirectly affect our business. In the past, adverse public reaction, increased regulatory scrutiny and litigation have contributed to extended construction periods for new nuclear reactors, sometimes delaying construction schedules by decades or more or even shutting down operations. In addition, anti-nuclear groups in Germany successfully lobbied for the adoption of the Nuclear Exit Law in 2002, which requires the shutdown of all German nuclear power plants by 2022. Adverse public reaction could also lead to increased regulation or limitations on the activities of our customers, more onerous operating requirements or other conditions that could have a material adverse impact on our customers and our business.

Accidents involving nuclear power facilities, including but not limited to events similar to the Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accidents, or terrorist acts or other high profile events involving radioactive materials could materially and adversely affect our customers and the markets in which we operate and increase regulatory requirements and costs that could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our future prospects are dependent upon a certain level of public support for nuclear power. Nuclear power faces strong opposition from certain competitive energy sources, individuals and organizations. The accident that occurred at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan in 2011 increased public opposition to nuclear power in some countries, resulting in a slowdown in, or, in some cases, a complete halt to new construction of nuclear power plants, an early shut down of existing power plants or a dampening of the favorable regulatory climate needed to introduce new nuclear technologies all could negatively impact our business and prospects. As a result of the Fukushima accident, some countries that were considering launching new domestic nuclear power programs delayed or cancelled the preparatory activities they were planning to undertake as part of such programs. If accidents similar to the Fukushima disaster or other events, such as terrorist attacks involving nuclear facilities, occur, public opposition to nuclear power may increase, regulatory requirements and costs could become more onerous and customer demand for our NPMs could suffer, which could materially and adversely affect our business and operations.

Our supply base may not be able to scale to the production levels necessary to meet sales projections.

NuScale LLC does not have manufacturing assets and relies on third party manufacturers to build our NPMs and associated equipment. Moreover, we are dependent on future supplier capability to meet production demands attendant

17

to our forecasts. If our supply chain cannot meet the schedule demands of the market, our projected sales revenues could be materially impacted.

Lack of availability and cost of component raw materials may affect the manufacturing processes for plant equipment and increase our costs.

Recent global supply chain disruptions have increasingly affected both the availability and cost of raw materials, component manufacturing and deliveries. These disruptions may result in delays in equipment deliveries and cost escalations that could adversely affect our business.

We are highly dependent on our senior management team and other highly skilled personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting or retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy.

Our success depends, in significant part, on the continued services of our senior management team and on our ability to attract, motivate, develop and retain a sufficient number of other highly skilled personnel, including engineers, manufacturing and quality assurance, finance, marketing and sales personnel. Our senior management team has extensive experience in the energy and manufacturing industries, and we believe that their depth of experience is instrumental to our continued success. The loss of any one or more members of our senior management team, for any reason, including resignation or retirement, could impair our ability to execute our business strategy and have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition if we are unable to successfully attract and retain qualified and highly skilled replacement personnel.

We may require additional future funding.

To date, we have not generated any material revenue, while we have substantial overhead expenses. We do not expect to generate meaningful revenue unless and until we are able to finalize development of and commercialize our SMR technology and related services, and we may not be able to do so on our anticipated timetable, if at all. We expect our expenses and capital expenditures to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, including developing and advancing our SMR and other products and services, obtaining NRC design certification of and SDA for our SMR and completing our manufacturing preparation and trials. We also expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. Certain costs are not reasonably estimable at this time and we may require additional funding and our projections anticipate certain customer-sourced income that is not guaranteed.

We may seek to raise capital through private or public equity or debt financings or through other sources of financing. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategies. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants that restrict our operations including limitations on our ability to incur liens or additional debt, pay dividends, repurchase our securities, make certain investments, and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders and members. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be required to delay, scale back or terminate some or all of our research and development programs.

Our funding plan relies on cost-shared funding provided through a cooperative agreement with the DOE. Significant funding has been received from the DOE under four separate cost-share awards granted since 2013. As of December 31, 2021, the DOE has obligated $170.5 million to the current program. The overall DOE contribution to NuScale LLC commercialization funding is more than $425 million. The current DOE award is a $700 million award ($350 million in government funding to be matched by $350 million in private funding). Funding is subject to at least annual Congressional appropriations, which may not be forthcoming. The fiscal year 2023 Congressional Budget Justification prepared by the DOE in connection with President Biden’s budget proposal to Congress, recites that approximately $40 million is requested for advanced SMR research and development, but no amounts are specified for the CFPP or U.S. domestic SMR demonstrations. The federal budget process is complex—the budget justification and Presidential budget

18

requests are incomplete; Congress may appropriate different amounts than those requested; and the DOE has varying degrees of discretion to reprogram or transfer appropriated funds. Nonetheless, to the extent Presidential budget requests or DOE budget justifications result in a shift of Congressional appropriations away from SMR funding generally or projects we are developing specifically, those shifts could materially and adversely affect our business.

If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may be forced to liquidate our assets and the values we receive for our assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in our financial statements.

As part of our arrangements with the DOE, we granted the DOE a worldwide, nonexclusive, paid-up license to our intellectual property and to manufacture our SMR technology, and the right to sublicense those rights if specified conditions arise, including if the DOE terminates the award due to material failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the award, or if we fail to meet our cost-sharing obligations or cease developing our SMR. As a result, if we are unable to continue as a going concern, the value of our intellectual property, including in liquidation, may be difficult to assess.

Our ability to protect our patents and other proprietary rights may be challenged and is not guaranteed, exposing us to the possible loss of competitive advantage.

We rely upon a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secret, and commercial agreements such as confidentiality agreements, assignment agreements, and license agreements to protect the intellectual property associated with our NPMs and related technologies. These measures prevent third parties from using, practicing, selling, manufacturing, or otherwise commercially exploiting our NPMs and related technologies, which would erode our competitive position in our market. Our success depends in large part on our ability to obtain and enforce patent protection for our NPMs, as well as our ability to operate without infringing on or violating the proprietary rights of others. We own and have licensed rights to patents and pending patent applications, and will continue to file patent applications claiming new technologies directed to NPMs in the United States and in other jurisdictions based on factors such as commercial viability.

As with all industries, the patent position of power modules and nuclear energy companies generally is uncertain and is not a guaranteed right. During the patent procurement process, a patent office may require us or our licensors to narrow the scope of the claims of our or our licensors’ pending and future patent applications. This may limit the scope of patent protection and our or our licensors’ ability to claim patent infringement if the patent application is subsequently issued. In some cases, a patent application may not issue if we or our licensors are unable to overcome rejections from a patent office. If a patent application does not issue, we or our licensors may lose trade secret that is disclosed and published in the patent application and third parties may be able to exploit such published information in our patent application. Additionally, even if we obtain a patent registration in one jurisdiction (e.g., the United States), we cannot guarantee that we will obtain a patent registration for the same or related patent application in another jurisdiction (e.g., China) as patent laws differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Additionally, maintaining and enforcing patent rights can involve complex legal and factual questions and may be subject to litigation in some cases. For example, third parties may challenge the validity of our or our licensors’ patents based on prior art at a tribunal such as the Patent Trial and Appeal Board at the United States Patent and Trademark Office and/or in a federal court. Because we cannot assure that all of the potentially relevant prior art relating to our patents and patent applications has been found, third parties may prevail in invalidating a patent or preventing a patent application from being issued as a patent. If we or our licensors are able to maintain valid patents or prevail in patent challenges instituted by third parties, we or our licensors may still bear the risk of third parties “designing around” our technologies to avoid an intellectual property infringement claim.

We enjoy only limited geographical protection with respect to certain patents and may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world.

We do not have worldwide patent rights for our NPMs and related technologies because there is no such thing as worldwide or “international patent rights.” Accordingly, we may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights in certain jurisdictions and their legal systems. Filing, prosecuting and defending patents on our NPMs worldwide can pose several challenges. First, procuring patent rights in multiple jurisdictions would be cost prohibitive because individual

19

patent offices in different jurisdictions will have to examine each patent application separately. Therefore, costs such as examination fees, translation fees, and attorney fees are considered. Once a patent is registered, we or our licensors will also have the continued obligation of paying maintenance fees periodically to avoid patents from becoming abandoned or lapsed. Second, the breadth of claims in patents may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. For instance, certain patent offices may require narrower claims, resulting in patent rights that are less extensive. Further, as noted above, we may not be able to obtain patents in some jurisdictions even if we obtain patents in other jurisdictions. Accordingly, our competitors may operate in countries where we do not have patent protection and can freely use our technologies and discoveries in such countries to the extent such technologies and discoveries are publicly known or disclosed in countries where we do have patent protection or pending patent applications.

In addition, many countries have compulsory licensing laws under which a patent owner may be compelled to grant licenses to third parties. Many countries also limit the enforceability of patents against government agencies or government contractors. In these countries, the patent owner may have limited remedies, which could materially diminish the value of such patent. If we or any of our licensors are forced to grant a license to third parties with respect to any patents relevant to our business, our competitive position may be impaired, and our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We may not identify relevant third-party patents or may incorrectly interpret the relevance, scope or expiration of a third-party patent, which might adversely affect our ability to develop and market NPMs.

We cannot guarantee that any of our patent searches or analyses, including the identification of relevant patents, the scope of patent claims or the expiration of relevant patents, are complete or thorough because there may be hundreds of thousands of relevant patents worldwide. We also cannot be certain that we have identified each and every third-party patent and pending application in the United States and abroad that is relevant to or necessary for the commercialization of NPMs in any jurisdiction. The scope of a patent claim is generally determined by an interpretation of the law, the written disclosure in a patent, and the patent’s prosecution history. Our interpretation of the relevance or the scope of a patent or a pending application may be incorrect or not accepted by a court of competent jurisdiction. Our determination of the expiration date of any patent in the United States or abroad that we consider relevant may be incorrect or inaccurate. Our failure to identify and correctly interpret relevant patents may negatively impact our ability to develop and market NPMs.

In addition, there are several circumstances under which a patent application may not be published and accessible to us or our licensors. For example, patent applications in the United States and many foreign jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months after filing, but some patent applications in the United States may be maintained in secrecy until the patents are issued. Publications in the scientific literature also often lag behind actual discoveries. Therefore, we cannot be certain that others have not filed patent applications for technology covered by our issued patents or our pending applications, or that we were the first to invent the technology. Our competitors may have filed, and may in the future file, patent applications covering NPMs or technology similar to ours without us knowing. Any such patent application may have priority over our patent applications or patents, which could require us to procure rights to issued patents covering such technologies in order to avoid infringement claims.

We may be subject to claims of ownership and other rights to our patents and other intellectual property by third parties.

Our confidentiality and intellectual property assignment agreements with our employees, consultants, and contractors generally provide that inventions conceived by the party in the course of rendering services to us will be our exclusive intellectual property. While we require our employees, consultants, and contractors to assign such intellectual property to us in the event that the intellectual property is not automatically assigned (e.g., as work made for hire), those agreements may not be honored and obligations to assign intellectual property may be challenged or breached. Moreover, there may be some circumstances, where we are unable to negotiate for such ownership rights and/or others misappropriate those rights in the process.

We may be subject to claims that former employees, collaborators, or other third parties have an interest in our patents or other intellectual property as an owner, a joint owner, a licensee, an inventor, or a co-inventor. In the latter

20

two cases, the failure to name the proper inventors on a patent application can result in the patents issuing thereon being unenforceable. Inventorship disputes may arise from conflicting views regarding the contributions of different individuals named as inventors, the effects of foreign laws where foreign nationals are involved in the development of the subject matter of the patent, conflicting obligations of third parties involved in developing our power modules or as a result of questions regarding co-ownership of potential joint inventions. Litigation may be necessary to resolve these and other claims challenging inventorship and/or ownership. Alternatively, or additionally, we may enter into agreements to clarify the scope of our rights in such intellectual property. If we fail in defending any such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, we may lose exclusive ownership of, or right to use or license valuable intellectual property. Such an outcome could have a material adverse effect on our business. Even if we are successful in defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees.

Regulatory Risk Factors

Our SDA application for the 77 MWe power module has not yet been submitted to the NRC, and its approval is not guaranteed.

Increasing the power that can be generated by our NPMs is a key part of our plan, and our higher- capacity, 77 MWe power module is subject to obtaining SDA from the NRC. The need to obtain that approval complicates our licensing process and could affect the planned deployment schedule for our first NPMs. In particular, if the NRC disagrees with our licensing approach or the breadth and/or scope of the design changes proposed, the construction and operating license application process could take longer than currently expected, which could materially and adversely affect our business. Further, we face the risk that the NRC could impose terms in the SDA that are not acceptable to us.

Our design is only approved in the United States and we must obtain approvals on a country-by-country basis before we can sell our products abroad, which approvals may be delayed or denied or which may require modification to our design.

Our SMR design has not been approved in any country except the United States. Each country has its own safety approval that we must obtain before we can sell or install our NPMs abroad. Foreign approval processes may differ materially from the NRC process, and approvals may be denied or delayed in foreign countries, or some countries may require that we alter our design before obtaining approval. Denial or delay in approvals abroad could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our customers must obtain additional regulatory approvals before they construct power plants using our NPMs, and approvals may be denied or delayed.

The lead time to build a nuclear power facility is long, and requires site licensing and approvals from applicable regulatory agencies before a plant can be constructed. The regulatory framework to obtain approvals is complex, and varies from country to country. Any delays experienced by our customers in siting a power plant using our products and services could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our customers could incur substantial costs as a result of violations of, or liabilities under, environmental laws.

The operations and properties of our customers are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges, management and disposal of hazardous, non-hazardous and radioactive materials and waste and remediation of releases of hazardous materials. Although NuScale LLC’s business is to design and sell technology rather than to construct and own or operate power plants, we must design our technology so it complies with such laws and regulations. Compliance with environmental requirements could require our customers to incur significant expenditures or result in significant restrictions on their operations, and the failure to comply with such laws and regulations, including failing to obtain any necessary permits, could result in substantial fines or enforcement actions, including regulatory or judicial orders enjoining or curtailing operations or requiring our customers to conduct or fund remedial or corrective measures, install pollution control equipment or perform other actions. More vigorous enforcement by regulatory agencies, the future enactment of more stringent laws, regulations or permit requirements, including relating

21

to climate change, or other unanticipated events may arise in the future and adversely impact the market for our products, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to stringent United States export and import control laws and regulations. Unfavorable changes in these laws and regulations or United States government licensing policies, our failure to secure timely United States government authorizations under these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The inability to secure and maintain required export licenses or authorizations could negatively impact our ability to compete successfully or market our SMR technology for commercial applications outside the United States. For example, if we were unable to obtain or maintain our licenses to export certain nuclear hardware, we would be effectively prohibited from exporting our SMR technology in non-United States locations, which would limit the number of customers to those in the United States. In addition, if we were unable to obtain authorization to export our technology, hardware, code or technical assistance, we would experience a limited market for our technology, which would provide a competitive edge to international suppliers of SMRs. In both cases, these restrictions could lead to an adverse impact on our ability to sell our commercial technology. Similarly, if we were unable to secure export authorization, we may need to implement design changes to our NPM to address issues with our domestic supplier chain, which may increase costs or result in delays in delivery of new plants and subsequent additional NPMs when ordered.

Failure to comply with export control laws and regulations could expose us to civil or criminal penalties, fines, investigations, more onerous compliance requirements, loss of export privileges, debarment from government contracts or limitations on our ability to enter into contracts with the United States government. In addition, any changes in export control regulations or United States government licensing policy, such as that necessary to implement United States government commitments to multilateral control regimes, may restrict our operations.

Our business is subject to a wide variety of extensive and evolving government laws and regulations. Changes in and/or failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Regulatory risk factors associated with our business also include:

● our ability to obtain additional applicable approvals, licenses or certifications from regulatory agencies, if required, and to maintain current approvals, licenses or certifications;

● our ability to obtain regulatory approval for a site boundary emergency planning zone defined in such a fashion as will benefit the majority of U.S.-based customers;

● regulatory delays, delays imposed as a result of regulatory inspections, and changing regulatory requirements, may cause a delay in our ability to fulfill our existing or future orders, or cause planned plants to not be completed at all, many of which may be out of our control, including natural disasters, changes in governmental regulations or in the status of our regulatory approvals or applications or other events that force us to cancel or reschedule plant construction, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition;

● regulatory, availability and other challenges may delay our progress in establishing the number of plant sites we require for our targeted build rate, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to grow our business; and

● challenges as a result of regulatory processes or in NuScale LLC’s ability to secure the necessary permissions to establish these plant sites could delay our ability to achieve our target build rate and could adversely affect our business.

22

General Risk Factors

COVID-19 and any future widespread public health crisis could negatively affect various aspects of our business, make it more difficult for us to meet our obligations to our customers, and result in reduced demand for our products and services.

In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, including the United States, have placed significant restrictions on travel, many businesses have announced extended closures, and many businesses and governmental agencies have allowed employees to work remotely, which in some cases may reduce the effectiveness of those employees. These travel restrictions and business closures may in the future adversely affect our operations locally and worldwide, including our ability to obtain regulatory approvals and to manufacture, market, sell or distribute our products, which could materially and adversely affect our business. We cannot predict the impact that remote work will have on the culture of NuScale LLC and our employee retention.

Many of our customers and suppliers worldwide were affected by COVID-19 and temporarily closed their facilities, which impacted the speed of our customer engagement and research and development. The impact of COVID-19 on NuScale LLC’s operational and financial performance will depend on various future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and impact on regulatory agencies, customers, suppliers and employees, all of which remain uncertain at this time.

Changes in tax laws or regulations may increase tax uncertainty and adversely affect results of our operations and our effective tax rate.

We will be subject to taxes in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions. Due to economic and political conditions, tax rates in various jurisdictions, including the United States, may be subject to change. Our future effective tax rates could be affected by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes in tax laws or their interpretation. In addition, we may be subject to income tax audits by various tax jurisdictions. An adverse resolution by one or more taxing authorities could have a material impact on our finances. Further, we may be unable to utilize any net operating losses in the event a change in control is determined to have occurred.

We may become involved in litigation that may materially adversely affect us.

From time to time, we may become involved in various legal proceedings relating to matters incidental to the ordinary course of our business, including intellectual property, commercial, product liability, employment, class action, whistleblower and other litigation and claims, and governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources from the operation of our business and cause us to incur significant expenses or liability or require us to change our business practices. Because of the potential risks, expenses and uncertainties of litigation, we may, from time to time, settle disputes, even where we believe that we have meritorious claims or defenses. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, we cannot assure you that the results of any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Shares of Class A Common Stock or NuScale Corp Warrants

Our Organizational Documents designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between NuScale Corp and its stockholders.

Our Organizational Documents provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, shall be the exclusive forum for certain actions and claims. This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with NuScale Corp or any of NuScale Corp’s directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. However, stockholders will not be deemed to have waived NuScale Corp’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder and this provision would not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created

23

by the Exchange Act, which provides for the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts with respect to all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, or the Securities Act. Further, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, the Organizational Documents provide that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision with respect to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. If a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in the Organizational Documents to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, NuScale Corp may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm NuScale Corp’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company.

Our warrant agreement provides that, subject to applicable law, (i) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement, including under the Securities Act, will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and (ii) that we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. We will waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, these provisions of the warrant agreement will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of our warrants shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in our warrant agreement. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions of the warrant agreement, is filed in a court other than a court of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (a “foreign action”) in the name of any holder of our warrants, such holder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an “enforcement action”), and (y) having service of process made upon such warrant holder in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant holder’s counsel in the foreign action as agent for such warrant holder.

This choice-of-forum provision may limit a warrant holder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with our company, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our warrant agreement inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our management and Board.

The NuScale Corp Warrants are expected to be accounted for as liabilities and the changes in value of the NuScale Corp Warrants could have a material effect on our financial results.

The NuScale Corp Warrants are currently classified as liabilities. Under this accounting treatment, we are required to measure the fair value of the NuScale Corp Warrants at the end of each reporting period and recognize changes in the fair value from the prior period in our operating results for the current period. As a result of the recurring fair value measurement, our financial statements and results of operations may fluctuate quarterly based on factors which are outside our control. We expect that we will recognize non-cash gains or losses due to the quarterly fair valuation of the NuScale Corp Warrants and that such gains or losses could be material.

24

The unaudited pro forma financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus may not be indicative of what NuScale Corp’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been.

The pro forma financial information included in this prospectus is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually occurred had the Transactions been completed at or as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results or financial position of NuScale. The pro forma statement of operations does not reflect future nonrecurring charges resulting from the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect future events that may occur after the Transactions and does not consider potential impacts of future market conditions on revenues or expenses. The pro forma financial information included in the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” has been derived from Spring Valley’s and NuScale LLC’s historical financial statements and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding NuScale LLC after giving effect to the Transactions. There may be differences between preliminary estimates in the pro forma financial information and the final acquisition accounting, which could result in material differences from the pro forma information presented in this prospectus in respect of the estimated financial position and results of operations of NuScale LLC.

In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate and other factors may affect NuScale LLC’s financial condition or results of operations following the Closing. Any potential decline in NuScale LLC’s financial condition or results of operations may cause significant variations in the stock price of NuScale Corp.

The price of Common Stock and NuScale Corp’s warrants may be volatile.

The price of Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp’s warrants may fluctuate due to a variety of factors, including:

● changes in the industries in which NuScale Corp and its customers operate;

● variations in its operating performance and the performance of its competitors in general;

● material and adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the markets and the broader global economy;

● actual or anticipated fluctuations in NuScale Corp’s quarterly or annual operating results;

● the public’s reaction to NuScale Corp’s press releases, its other public announcements and its filings with the SEC;

● NuScale Corp’s failure or the failure of its competitors to meet analysts’ projections or guidance that NuScale Corp or its competitors may give to the market;

● additions and departures of key personnel;

● changes in laws and regulations affecting its business;

● commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving NuScale Corp;

● changes in NuScale Corp’s capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;

● publication of research reports by securities analysts about NuScale Corp, its competitors or its industry;

● sales of shares of Class A Common Stock by the PIPE Investors; and

25

● general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, fuel prices, foreign currency fluctuations, international tariffs, social, political and economic risks and acts of war or terrorism.

These market and industry factors may materially reduce the market price of Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp’s warrants regardless of the operating performance of NuScale Corp.

A significant portion of our total outstanding shares may be sold into the market. This could cause the market price of Class A Common Stock to drop significantly, even if NuScale Corp’s business is doing well.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of Class A Common Stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of Class A Common Stock.

As of May 3, 2022, there were (i) 43,615,304 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, (ii) 178,396,711 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units (together with cancellation of an equal number of shares of NuScale Corp Class B Common Stock) pursuant to the procedures set forth in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, and (iii) 35,199,894 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.

Although the Sponsor and certain of the Legacy NuScale Equityholders are subject to certain restrictions regarding the transfer of Class A Common Stock, these shares may be sold after the expiration or early termination of the respective applicable lock-ups under the Sponsor Letter Agreement. The registration statements of which this prospectus forms a part provides for the potential resale of 209,870,307 shares of Class A Common Stock. We also intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 to register the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and other equity awards under the NuScale LLC 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and the NuScale Corp 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan. As restrictions on resale end and so long as the registration statements are available for use, the market price of Class A Common Stock could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

NuScale Warrants and Pre-Existing NuScale Options will become exercisable for Common Stock, which, if exercised, would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our stockholders.

Outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 20,400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock will become exercisable June 1, 2022 in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreement governing those securities. The exercise price of these warrants will be $11.50 per share. In addition, outstanding options exercisable in exchange for an aggregate of 14,799,894 shares of Class A Common Stock are or will become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the NuScale LLC 2011 Equity Incentive Plan governing those securities. To the extent such warrants or options are exercised, additional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the holders of Common Stock and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market or the fact that such warrants may be exercised could adversely affect the prevailing market prices of Class A Common Stock.

Investors’ ability to make transactions in NuScale Corp’s securities could be limited and if NuScale cannot maintain its listing on the NYSE, NuScale Corp may be subject to additional trading restrictions.

An active trading market for NuScale Corp’s securities may never develop or, if developed, it may not be sustained. In addition, NuScale Corp may be unable to maintain the listing of its securities on the NYSE in the future.

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” If NuScale Corp’s securities were not listed on the NYSE or another national securities exchange, such securities would not qualify as covered securities and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities because states are not preempted from regulating the sale of securities that are not covered securities.

26

Reports published by analysts, including projections in those reports that differ from our actual results, could adversely affect the price and trading volume of our common stock.

Securities research analysts may establish and publish their own periodic projections for NuScale Corp. These projections may vary widely and may not accurately predict the results we actually achieve. Our share price may decline if our actual results do not match the projections of these securities research analysts. Similarly, if one or more of the analysts who write reports on us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our share price could decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to publish reports on us regularly, our share price or trading volume could decline. Moreover, if no analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and volume for our common shares could be adversely affected.

We are subject to changing law and regulations regarding regulatory matters, corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased and will continue to increase our costs and the risk of non-compliance.

We are subject to rules and regulations by various governing bodies, including the SEC, which are charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded, and to new and evolving regulatory measures under applicable law. Our efforts to comply with new and changing laws and regulations have resulted in, and likely will continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention.

Moreover, because these laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance becomes available. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to NuScale Corp’s disclosure and governance practices. If we fail to address and comply with these regulations and any subsequent changes, we may be subject to penalty and our business may be harmed.

We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The issuance of Class A Common Stock in exchange for NuScale LLC Class B Units will not result in proceeds to NuScale Corp. Any net proceeds we receive upon exercise of NuScale Corp Warrants will be used for general corporate purposes.

All of the warrants and shares of Class A Common Stock offered by the selling securityholders will be sold by them for their respective accounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these sales.

The selling securityholders will pay any underwriting fees, discounts, selling commissions, stock transfer taxes, and certain legal expenses incurred by such selling securityholders in disposing of their shares of Class A Common Stock, and we will bear all other costs, fees, and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of such securities covered by this prospectus, including registration and filing fees, NYSE listing fees, and fees and expenses of our legal counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have no current plans to pay dividends on our Class A Common Stock. Our shares of Class B Common Stock represent solely the right to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders of NuScale Corp and have no rights to receive dividends or distributions or other economic rights. The declaration, amount, and payment of any future dividends on shares of Class A Common Stock is at the sole discretion of our Board, and we may reduce or discontinue entirely the

27

payment of such dividends at any time. Our Board may take into account general and economic conditions, our financial condition and operating results, our available cash and current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax, and regulatory restrictions and implications on the payment of dividends by us to our stockholders or by our subsidiaries to us, and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant.

NuScale Corp is a holding company and has no material assets other than its ownership of NuScale LLC Class A Units. The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement provides that certain distributions to cover the taxes of the holders of NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units will be made based upon assumed tax rates and other assumptions provided in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—A&R NuScale LLC Agreement.” NuScale Corp, as the manager of NuScale LLC, has broad discretion to make distributions out of NuScale LLC. If NuScale Corp declares any cash dividend, we expect that NuScale Corp, as manager of NuScale LLC, would cause NuScale LLC to make distributions to NuScale Corp in an amount sufficient to cover the cash dividends. If NuScale LLC makes distributions to NuScale Corp, the holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units will also be entitled to receive the respective equivalent pro rata distributions in accordance with the percentages of their respective NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units.

Cash received by NuScale LLC may, in certain periods, exceed its liabilities, including tax liabilities, and obligations to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. NuScale Corp may use any such excess cash from time to time to pay dividends, which may include special dividends, on its Class A Common Stock, or to fund repurchases of its Class A Common Stock, or any combination of the foregoing. Our Board, in its sole discretion, will make any determination with respect to the use of any such excess cash.

We also expect, if necessary, to undertake ameliorative actions, which may include pro rata or non-pro rata reclassifications, combinations, subdivisions, or adjustments of outstanding NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units, or declare a stock dividend on our Class A Common Stock of an aggregate number of additional newly issued shares that corresponds to the number of additional NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units that NuScale Corp is acquiring, to maintain one-to-one parity between NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units and shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure—NuScale Corp’s sole material asset is its interest in NuScale LLC, and, accordingly, it will depend on distributions from NuScale LLC to pay its taxes and expenses, including payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. NuScale LLC’s ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions.”

Any financing arrangements that we enter into in the future may include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to pay dividends. In addition, NuScale LLC is generally prohibited under Oregon law from making a distribution to a member to the extent that, at the time of the distribution, after giving effect to the distribution, liabilities of NuScale LLC (with certain exceptions) exceed the fair value of its assets.

NuScale Corp has not paid any dividends to holders of its outstanding common stock since its formation on August 20, 2020. NuScale LLC has not paid dividends or made cash distributions to its equity holders since its formation on June 22, 2007.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 present the historical financial statements of Spring Valley and NuScale LLC, adjusted to reflect the Transactions. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 gives pro forma effect to the Transactions and related transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations data for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 gives pro forma effect to the Transactions and related transactions as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X, as amended.

The Transactions include:

● the merger of Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Spring Valley, with and into NuScale LLC, with NuScale LLC surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Spring Valley;

● the reverse recapitalization between Spring Valley and NuScale LLC;

● the conversion of the aggregate principal balance of Fluor Convertible Notes into NuScale LLC Units, (which will then be converted into and exchanged for NuScale LLC Class B Units and Class B Common Stock); and

● the issuance and sale of 23,700,002 shares of Class A common stock for a purchase price of approximately $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $235,000,000 in the PIPE Investment pursuant to the Subscription Agreements;

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been developed from and should be read in conjunction with:

● the notes accompanying the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements;

● the historical audited financial statements of Spring Valley included elsewhere in this prospectus;

● the historical audited financial statements of NuScale LLC set forth in this prospectus;

● the discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Spring Valley and NuScale LLC set forth in this prospectus; and

● other information contained in this prospectus.

Upon the Closing, Legacy NuScale Equityholders held securities exchangeable for an aggregate of 178,396,711 shares of Class A Common Stock (or, upon the election of NuScale Corp, cash in an amount equal to the net proceeds raised by selling such Class A Common Stock in a contemporaneous underwritten offering). In addition, NuScale Corp assumed all outstanding NuScale Options and the holders of those NuScale Options will be entitled to receive up to 14,799,894 shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise. The assumed NuScale Options are subject to vesting conditions. The Transactions were accomplished through an “UP-C” structure and the type and mix of consideration received by the Legacy NuScale Equityholders reflect the implementation of such structure.

Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, NuScale Corp will be required to pay 85% of the net cash tax savings from certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis and other tax benefits resulting from any exchange by the TRA Holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares

29

of Class A Common Stock or, upon the election of NuScale Corp, cash in an amount equal to the net proceeds raised by selling such Class A Common Stock in a contemporaneous underwritten offering, in the future. Any such payments to TRA Holders will reduce the cash provided by the tax savings generated from future exchanges that would otherwise have been available to NuScale Corp for other uses, including reinvestment or dividends to Class A stockholders. Cash tax savings from the remaining 15% of the tax benefits will be retained by NuScale Corp. NuScale Corp’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement accelerate upon a change in control and certain other termination events, as defined therein.

NuScale Corp expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of cash savings. Due to the uncertainty of the amount and timing of future exchanges of NuScale LLC Class B Units, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information assumes that no exchanges of NuScale LLC Class B Units have occurred and therefore, no increases in tax basis have been realized. Additionally, NuScale Corp would recognize a full valuation allowance for any deferred tax asset realized based on NuScale LLC’s current assessment of the future realizability.

The following summarizes the Common Stock outstanding as of May 3, 2022:

	Shares	%
Spring Valley Class A Shareholders	14,400,369	6.5	%

Fifty percent of the Earn Out Shares vest, pursuant to the Sponsor Letter Agreement, if NuScale Corp trades at $12.00 per share or higher over any 20 trading days within a 30-day window during the 60 months following the closing, the dollar volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) is greater than or equal to $12.00 per share. The remainder of the Earn Out Shares vest if NuScale Corp trades at $14.00 per share or higher over any 20 trading days within a 30-day window during the 60 months following the closing, the VWAP is greater than or equal to $14.00 per share.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the estimated effect of the Transactions.

The Transactions are shown as a reverse recapitalization as provided under U.S. GAAP. Spring Valley is the acquired company, with NuScale LLC treated as the acquirer. This determination reflects Legacy NuScale Equityholders holding a majority of the voting power of NuScale Corp, NuScale LLC’s pre-merger operations being the majority post-merger operations of NuScale Corp, and NuScale LLC’s management team retaining similar roles at NuScale Corp. Accordingly, although Spring Valley is the legal parent company, GAAP dictates that the financial statements of NuScale Corp will represent a continuation of NuScale LLC’s operations, with the Transactions being treated as though NuScale LLC issued ownership interests for Spring Valley, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of NuScale LLC are stated at historical cost, with no incremental goodwill or other intangible assets recorded for the effects of the Merger with Spring Valley.

2. Reclassifications

Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Spring Valley’s historical financial statement presentation to that of NuScale LLC’s as follows:

	Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2022
	Spring Valley   Before Reclassifications		Reclassification   Adjustments		Spring Valley   After Reclassifications
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	$	—	$	5,056	$	5,056
Accounts payable		110		(110)		—
Accrued expenses		4,946		(4,946)		—

3. Transaction Accounting Adjustments

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects:

(A) The reclassification of investments held in the Trust Account that becomes available at the Closing. Accordingly, cash and cash equivalents increased $232.3 million with elimination of investments held in the Trust Account.

(B) The gross proceeds of $235,000,000 from the PIPE Investment, in which 23,700,002 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreements. Accordingly, cash and cash equivalents increased by $235,000,000, with a corresponding increase in equity.

(C) Estimated transaction costs in connection with the Transactions of $42.7 million, of which $0.7 million was previously paid and recorded to accumulated deficit, $0.4 million was previously recorded to other assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses, and $1.9 million was previously paid and recorded to other assets. Of the total, $29.7 million relates to advisory, legal, and other fees to be incurred, $4.9 million relates to estimated PIPE Investment fees and $8.1 million relates to deferred underwriting fees. Of these expenses, $32.1 million are expected to be recorded in additional paid-in capital and $2.5 million is expected to be recorded to accumulated deficit, while the remaining $8.1 million is related to settlement of deferred underwriting fees payable.

(D) The reclassification of Spring Valley Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to Class A Common Stock.

34

(E) The recapitalization of NuScale LLC’s equity and issuance of 178,396,711 shares of Class B Common Stock as consideration for the reverse recapitalization. Existing NuScale LLC common and preferred units have been reclassified to common stock and additional paid-in capital at carrying value, including NuScale LLC common units previously presented as mezzanine equity.

(F) The reclassification of the Spring Valley Founder Shares from Spring Valley Class B ordinary shares to Spring Valley Class A ordinary shares at the Closing.

(G) The reclassification of Spring Valley’s historical accumulated deficit to additional paid-in capital as part of the reverse recapitalization.

(H) The conversion of a note payable from NuScale LLC to Fluor into NuScale LLC Common Units, which are subsequently re-classified in the Merger as 8,257,560 NuScale LLC Class B Units, and the related issuance in the Transactions of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock (see (J) for subsequent adjustments to reflect Legacy NuScale Equityholders’ economic interest in NuScale LLC). Accordingly, additional paid-in capital increases by $14.0 million with an equal decrease to convertible notes payable.

(I) Amounts paid to the Public Shareholders who exercised their redemption rights. 8,599,631 Spring Valley Class A ordinary shares were redeemed for aggregate redemption payments of $86.9 million. The redemptions at a redemption price of $10.10 per share results in a reduction to equity with a corresponding decrease in investments held in the Trust Account.

(J) An adjustment to reflect noncontrolling interest holders’ economic share of combined equity, pursuant to the post-combination structure of the combined companies. Following the Closing, holders of Class A Common Stock own direct controlling interests in the results of the combined entity, while the Legacy NuScale Equityholders own an economic interest in NuScale LLC shown as noncontrolling interest in equity in the financial statements of NuScale Corp. The indirect economic interests are held by the Legacy NuScale Equityholders in the form of NuScale LLC Class B Units that, together with the cancellation for no consideration of Class B Common Stock, can be exchanged, at the election of the holder of NuScale LLC Class B Units and Class B Common Stock, for Class A Common Stock or, in certain circumstances including at the election of NuScale Corp, cash in an amount equal to the fair value of Class A Common Stock. If NuScale Corp elects that the exchanged NuScale LLC Class B Units, together with cancellation for no consideration of Class B Common Stock, will be settled in cash, the cash used to settle the exchange must be funded through an underwritten offering of Class A Common Stock.

The following table summarizes the economic interests of NuScale Corp between the holders of Class A Common Stock and indirect economic interests held by NuScale LLC Class B Unitholders (assuming all NuScale LLC Class B Units are exchanged for Class A Common Stock):

	Economic  Interests	% of  Economic  Interests
NuScale Corp Class A Common Stock	41,971,380	19.0	%
NuScale Class B Units (Noncontrolling interest)	178,396,711	81.0	%
	220,368,091	100.0	%

The noncontrolling interest may decrease according to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock and NuScale LLC Class B Units that are exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock or, in certain circumstances including at the election of NuScale Corp, cash in an amount equal to the fair value of Class A Common Stock. The calculation of noncontrolling interest is based on the net assets of NuScale Corp following the completion of the Transactions.

35

Accordingly, noncontrolling interest increased to $285.4 million with a corresponding decrease in additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

(K) Adjustments for deferred taxes, which arise from differences between the financial statement and tax basis in the NuScale LLC interests, including legacy step-up basis adjustments, and net operating losses recorded at NuScale Corp. The adjustments for deferred taxes assume:

I. the GAAP balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 is adjusted for the pro forma entries described herein,

II. the estimated tax basis as of March 31, 2022 is adjusted for the pro forma entries described herein,

III. a full valuation allowance is established to offset the net deferred tax assets based upon the assessment of realizability, and

IV. no material changes in tax law.

NuScale Corp accrues liabilities or adjusts deferred taxes for unrecognized tax benefits. NuScale Corp has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2022, that, if recognized, would affect its annual effective tax rate. However, as NuScale Corp continues to evaluate various accounting considerations, it may record uncertain tax positions under GAAP.

(L) No adjustments are reflected for the effects of the Tax Receivable Agreement, more fully described elsewhere in this prospectus. As part the Closing, NuScale Corp is a party to a Tax Receivable Agreement under which NuScale Corp will make payments to the TRA Holders in respect of 85% of the net tax benefit to NuScale Corp of certain tax attributes. NuScale Corp anticipates that it will account for the income tax effects resulting from future taxable exercises of the exchange rights set forth in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement by recognizing an increase in deferred tax assets, based on enacted tax rates at the date of each exchange. If there were an exchange of all the outstanding NuScale LLC Class B Units immediately after the Transaction, the estimated tax benefits to NuScale Corp, subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement, would be approximately $604.8 million offset by related undiscounted payment to the TRA Holders equal to 85% of the benefit received of $514.1 million based on certain assumptions, including that NuScale Corp has sufficient taxable income to realize the tax benefit; there are no material tax law changes; and the fair market value of the exchanged shares is equal to $10 per share. At this time, a full valuation allowance would be established on any deferred tax asset created based on NuScale LLC’s current assessment of the future realizability. Therefore, no liability related to future TRA payments has been reflected.

(M) The estimated change in interest expense for the assumed conversion of the Fluor Convertible Note (refer to adjustment (H) for details). Accordingly, interest expense decreased by $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(N) The net loss of NuScale Corp being reduced as summarized below.

(amounts in thousands)	Three months  ended March 31,  2022		Year ended  December 31,  2021
Pro forma net loss	(39,249)		(102,120)
Noncontrolling interest percentage	81.0	%	81.0	%
Noncontrolling interest pro forma adjustment	(31,792)		(82,717)
Net loss attributable to NuScale Corp	(7,457)		(19,403)

(O) The elimination of income earned on the Trust Account.

(P) The net loss per share calculated using the weighted average shares outstanding and the issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the Transactions, assuming that the shares were

36

outstanding since January 1, 2021. The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for net loss per share assumes that the shares issued related to the Transactions have been outstanding for the entire period presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects a net loss for NuScale Corp and therefore all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive.

In addition, each NuScale LLC Class B Unit may be exchanged, together with the cancelation for no consideration of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock for no consideration, for (i) one share of Class A Common Stock, subject to conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassification, or (ii) an equivalent amount of cash, subject to certain restrictions. If all NuScale LLC Class B Units and Class B Common Stock were exchanged immediately following the Transactions, Class A Common Stock outstanding would increase by 178,396,711 shares. In computing the dilutive effect, if any, the net income available to holders of Class A Common Stock would increase due to elimination of the noncontrolling interest associated with the NuScale LLC Class B Units (including any tax impact). For the periods presented, such exchange is not reflected in the earnings per share calculation as the assumed exchange would be anti-dilutive.

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)	Three months  ended March 31,  2022	Year ended  December 31,  2021
Pro forma net loss attributable to NuScale Corp	(7,457)	(19,403)
Weighted average NuScale Corp Class A Common Stock outstanding, basic and diluted	41,971,380	41,971,380
Net loss per share of NuScale Corp Class A Common Stock, basic and diluted	(0.18)	(0.46)
Spring Valley Class A Shareholders	14,400,369	14,400,369
Spring Valley Founders	3,871,009	3,871,009
PIPE Investors	23,700,002	23,700,002
Pro forma shares outstanding, basic and diluted	41,971,380	41,971,380

(Q) An adjustment for $1.8 million of estimated transaction costs in connection with the Transactions expected to be incurred during the first annual period post-close, excluding $0.7 million already incurred during the year ended December 31, 2021. Such costs are non-recurring and were reflected as if incurred on January 1, 2021, the date the Transactions occurred for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations.

(R) An adjustment to reflect the cash settlement of Unit Appreciation Rights awarded to John L. Hopkins, which were exercised and cash settled for $1.5 million prior to the Closing. Incremental compensation expense is equal to the excess of the fair value at the time of cash settlement over the grant date fair value. No Class A Common Stock was issued to Mr. Hopkins in settlement of the Unit Appreciation Rights.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of NuScale Power, LLC (“NuScale LLC”) should be read together with our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and unaudited interim condensed financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, together with related notes thereto. The discussion and analysis should also be read together with the section entitled “Historical Business of NuScale LLC” and our pro forma financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.” This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” or in other parts of this prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of NuScale LLC” section to “NuScale LLC,” “us,” “our” or “we” refer to NuScale LLC prior to the Merger, and to NuScale Power, Corporation (“NuScale Corp”) following the consummation of the Transactions.

Overview

Our mission is to provide scalable advanced nuclear technology for the production of electricity, heat, and clean water to improve the quality of life for people around the world. We are changing the power that changes the world by creating an energy source that is smarter, cleaner, safer and cost competitive.

Our SMR, known as NPM, provides a scalable power plant solution incorporating enhanced safety, improved affordability and extended flexibility for diverse electrical and process heat applications. Our scalable design provides carbon-free energy and at a reduced cost when compared with gigawatt-sized nuclear facilities.

Since our founding in 2007, we have made significant progress towards commercializing the first SMR in the United States. In 2017, we submitted our Design Certification Application (“DCA”) to the NRC. On August 28, 2020, the NRC issued its Final Safety Evaluation Report, representing the NRC’s completion of its technical review. On September 11, 2020 the NRC issued its SDA of our NPM and scalable plant design. With this phase of NuScale LLC’s DCA now complete, customers may proceed with plans to develop NuScale power plants with the understanding that the NRC has approved the safety aspects of the NPM and plant design. We expect our operating losses and negative operating cash flows to grow until the commercialization of the NPM.

The Transactions

We entered into the Merger Agreement with Spring Valley and Merger Sub on December 13, 2021. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on May 2, 2022, Merger Sub merged with and into NuScale LLC with NuScale LLC surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Spring Valley. Spring Valley was then renamed NuScale Power Corp.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as provided under U.S. GAAP. NuScale LLC was deemed the predecessor and NuScale Corp is the successor SEC registrant, meaning that NuScale LLC’s financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in NuScale Corp’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC. Spring Valley was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. The most significant change in NuScale Corp’s future reported financial position and results is a net increase in cash (as compared to NuScale LLC’s financial position as of March 31, 2022) of $341.0 million.

38

Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions and PIPE Investment NuScale Corp’s common stock consisted of the following:

	Ownership	%
Spring Valley’s public shareholders	6.5	%
Legacy NuScale equityholders (excluding public shares held prior to the Merger)	80.4	%
Spring Valley Acquisition Sponsor, LLC and related parties	2.4	%
PIPE Investors	10.7	%
Total NuScale Corp common stock	100.0	%

Key Factors Affecting Our Prospects and Future Results

We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including competition from carbon-based and other non-carbon-based energy generators, the risk of perceived safety issues and their consequences for our reputation and the other factors discussed under the section titled “Risk Factors.” We believe the factors described below are key to our success.

Commencing and Expanding Commercial Launch Operations

In September 2020, we became the first and only company to receive NRC SDA for an SMR. We believe our commercialization activities are being completed at a pace that can support delivery of modules to a client site as early as 2027. We have an agreement in place with UAMPS to deploy a NuScale 6-module power plant at the DOE’s Idaho National Laboratory as part of UAMPS’ CFPP. Commercial operation of that power plant is slated for 2029. In November 2021, we signed a teaming agreement with S.N. Nuclearelectrica S.A., an entity that operates under the authority of the Romanian Ministry of Energy, to advance the deployment of our NPMs to Romania. Under the teaming agreement, we will evaluate activities associated with the planning, siting and licensing of our NuScale power plant technology at a site that is the location of an existing coal-fueled electricity plant. We expect the site in Romania to use six modules and to be commercially operable by 2028.

We have over 100 potential target customers, including, in addition to UAMPS, ten customers across seven countries that we consider highly interested customers who are considering an NPM power plant deployment in the late 2020s or early 2030s. We believe the long lead-time involved with siting an SMR, the number of customers in our pipeline and the work being performed by these potential customers involving a NuScale deployment project bode well for our potential future success.

Regulatory Approvals

We expect to submit an application to the NRC for our latest power enhanced design. If approved, the licensed output of our NPM will be raised from 50 MWe to 77 MWe. Approval of the design, which could come in 2024, would increase the cost-competitiveness of our NPM, and we consider obtaining such approval a critical milestone.

Other factors that we believe are critical to our future success are country-level approvals of our NPM design. We also believe site-approvals by our customers to be key to facilitating broader adoption of our products and services. Obtaining these approvals before others is critical in maintaining our competitive advantage.

Successful Implementation of the First NPM Power Plant

A critical step in our success will be the successful construction and operation of the first power plant using our NPM. We expect that the first NPM for the UAMPS facility could be operational as early as 2029 with the remaining five modules achieving commercial operation in 2030.

39

Key Components of Results of Operations

We are an early-stage company and our historical results may not be indicative of our future results. Accordingly, the drivers of our future financial results, as well as the components of such results, may not be comparable to our historical or future results of operations.

Revenue

We have not generated any material revenue to date. All revenue that we have generated to date arises from engineering and licensing services provided to potential customers. As a result of those front end engineering and development services, we expect to generate a significant portion of our revenue from the sale of NPMs. We also expect to generate revenue by providing critical services, such as start-up and testing and nuclear fuel and refueling services, over the life cycle of each power plant.

Expenses

Research and Development Expense

Our R&D expenses consist primarily of internal and external expenses incurred in connection with our R&D activities. These expenses include labor directly performed on our projects and fees paid to third parties working on and testing specific aspects of our NPM design. R&D costs have been expensed as incurred. We expect R&D expenses to grow as we continue to develop the SMR technology and develop market and strategic relationships with other businesses.

General and Administrative Expense

G&A expenses consist of compensation costs for personnel in executive, finance, accounting, human resources and other administrative functions. G&A expenses also include legal fees, professional fees paid for accounting, auditing, and consulting services, insurance costs and facility costs. Following the Transactions, we expect we will incur higher G&A expenses for public company costs such as compliance with the regulations of the SEC and the NYSE.

Other Operating Expense

Other operating expenses consist primarily of compensation costs (including indirect benefits and stock- based compensation expense) for operating personnel that cannot be directly attributed to a project.

Department of Energy Cost Share

The DOE cost share amounts reflect our cost-sharing arrangement with the DOE. Generally, as our qualifying operating costs change, there is a corresponding change in the reimbursable amounts. The amount of any reimbursement is recognized in the period that we recognize the qualifying expenses.

Income Tax Effects

We are a limited liability company that is treated as a partnership for tax purposes, with each of our members accounting for its share of tax attributes and liabilities. Accordingly, there are no current or deferred income tax amounts recorded in our financial statements.

Revenue

The increase in revenue can be attributed to activities in support of the EPCDA for CFPP, as well as nuclear technologies consulting services.

Research and Development

R&D expenses increased due to higher professional fees associated with the standard plant design work of $4.3 million and compensation costs of $1.3 million as a result of increased headcount as we expand our Licensing department.

General and Administrative

G&A expenses increased as a result of $1.3 million of higher accounting fees in preparation to go public and marketing fees as we continue to expand internationally, $1.0 million in compensation costs due to an increase in headcount, and $0.3 million in equity-based compensation.

Department of Energy Cost Share

The DOE cost share increase of $5.7 million reflects the incurrence of higher qualifying costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Research and Development

A breakdown of R&D costs by nature for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 is presented below:

	Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands)		2021		2020
Research and development expenses: Professional fees	$	64,815	$	63,856
Personnel costs		28,086		31,264
Other		235		165
Total	$	93,136	$	95,267

The decrease in personnel costs was driven by the fact that the NRC’s review of the NPM design application concluded in late 2020.

General and Administrative

The increase in 2021 G&A expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefits of $4.5 million, a contract settlement fee with a former advisor of $3.3 million and $2.2 million related to higher advertising costs, partially offset by lower equity-based compensation of $0.5 million.

Other Operating Expense

Other operating expenses increased year over year as a result of higher compensation costs of $6.2 million, equity-based compensation of $3.2 million and $0.5 million in various other expenses, partially offset by lower professional fees of $1.0 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our R&D activities and our near term business operations, including our contractual obligations and other commitments. Our current liquidity needs primarily involve R&D activities for the ongoing development of the NPM and associated plant design.

42

We had $42.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022 (compared to $77.1 million as of December 31, 2021). We also had total debt of $14.1 million as of March 31, 2022 (compared to $14.0 million as of December 31, 2021), representing outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Fluor Convertible Note.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses, have an accumulated deficit of $805.0 million and negative operating cash flow during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Management expects that operating losses and negative cash flows may increase because of additional costs and expenses related to the development of technology and the development of market and strategic relationships with other companies. However, as noted above, on May 2, 2022 the transactions were consummated, resulting in the receipt of $341.0 million in cash. The Company believes that based on its current level of operating expenses and its currently available cash resources, it will have sufficient funds available to cover operating cash needs through the twelve month period from the financial statement reporting date.

To date, we have not generated any material revenue. We do not expect to generate any meaningful revenue unless and until we are able to commercialize our NPM and related services. We expect our costs to increase in connection with advancement of our products and services toward commercialization. In addition, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. While we believe that the proceeds of the Transactions will be sufficient to reach commercialization of our NPM, certain costs are not reasonably estimable at this time and we may require additional funding and our projections anticipate certain customer-sourced income that is not assured.

Net cash used in our operating activities increased during 2021 due to a larger net loss, the utilization of $13 million of previously deferred DOE cost share and $20 million change in accounts receivable primarily related to a large $18 million DOE collection in 2020, partially offset by higher accruals associated with compensation and professional fees.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

In 2021, net cash provided by financing activities consisted of the sale of $192.5 million in convertible preferred units, partially offset by the repayment of $20 million in debt to Fluor.

In 2020, net cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds from the incurrence of debt of $20 million in the form of a note payable to Fluor and proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred units of $18.5 million.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

As of December 31, 2021, the Company has no material commitments or contractual obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2021, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Preparation of the financial statements requires our management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We consider an accounting judgment, estimate or assumption to be critical when (1) the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a

44

high degree of judgment and (2) the use of different judgments, estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in our financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. Additional information about our critical accounting policies follows:

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes reimbursement requests outstanding from the DOE awards and are recognized as eligible costs are incurred. Such treatment creates symmetry with our incurrence of qualifying costs. Accounts receivable are presented net of related deferred DOE cost share liabilities that have the right of offset. We do assess the probability of collection from the DOE in establishing the fair value of recorded amounts.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize fixed price contract revenue with multiple performance obligations as each obligation is completed. We allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the stand- alone selling price of each distinct service in the contract. Revenue recognized on contracts that have not been billed to customers is classified as a current asset under Accounts Receivable on the Balance Sheet. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized are classified as a current liability under Deferred Revenue.

We recognize time and material contracts revenue over time, matching continuous transfer of control to the customer. We account for these contracts as a single performance obligation and recognize revenue using the percentage-of-completion (“POC”) method, based on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. The POC method (an input method) is the most faithful depiction of our performance because it directly measures the value of the services transferred to the customer. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client.

We exclude all taxes assessed by governmental authorities from our measurement of transaction prices that are both (i) imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and (ii) collected from customers. Accordingly, such tax amounts are not included as a component of revenue or cost of sales.

We generally provide limited warranties for work performed under our engineering contracts. The warranty periods typically extend for a limited duration following substantial completion of our work.

Because our SMR is designed to be sold on a modular basis, we are limited under U.S. GAAP in our ability to recognize revenue on a POC basis. Other companies with a less-standardized approach might be able to use POC, which would have the effect of accelerating their recognition of profit ahead of us, given our use of completed contract accounting.

Equity-Based Compensation

Equity-based compensation is measured using a fair value-based method for all equity-based awards. The cost of awarded equity instruments is recognized based on each instrument’s grant-date fair value over the period during which the grantee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The determination of fair value requires significant judgment and the use of estimates, particularly with regard to Black- Scholes assumptions such as stock price volatility and expected option lives to value equity-based compensation. Equity-based compensation is recorded as a general and administrative expense and other expense in the statements of operations.

We measure the fair value of each unit option grant at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. We estimate the expected term of options granted based on historical experience and expectations. We use the treasury yield curve rates for the risk-free interest rate in the option valuation model with maturities similar to the expected term of the options. Volatility is determined by reference to the actual volatility of several publicly traded companies that are similar to us in our industry sector. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore use an expected dividend yield of zero in the option valuation model. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

45

All equity-based payment awards subject to graded vesting based only on a service condition are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods.

There is substantial judgment in selecting the assumptions which we use to determine the fair value of such stock awards and other companies could use similar market inputs and experience and arrive at different conclusions with respect to those used to calculate fair value. Using alternative assumptions could cause there to be differences in the resulting fair value. If the fair value were to increase, the amount of expense that would result would also increase. Conversely, if the fair value were to decrease, the amount of expense would decrease.

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts EGCs from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-EGCs, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. We expect to be an EGC through the end of 2025 and will have the benefit of the extended transition period. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management believes there is no new accounting guidance issued but not yet effective that would have a material impact to the Company’s current financial statements.

BUSINESS

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “NuScale,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the business of NuScale Corp and NuScale LLC collectively.

Overview

NuScale is redefining nuclear power through its proprietary and innovative SMR technology that will deliver safe, scalable, cost-effective and reliable carbon-free power. Our core technology, the NPM, can generate 77 MWe and is premised on well-established nuclear technology principles, with a focus on the integration of components, simplification or elimination of systems and use of passive safety features. We believe this results in a safe and highly reliable power plant, suitable to be sited close to where electricity or process heat is needed. Our flagship power plant, named VOYGR, is a scalable plant design that can accommodate up to 12 NPMs, resulting in a total gross output of 924 MWe. NuScale expects the first VOYGR power plant to be operational in 2029.

Since 2007, we and the DOE have invested over $1.3 billion toward the development of our NPM and VOYGR power plant technology and we have been issued 443 patents globally, with an additional 196 patents currently pending. In September 2020, NuScale’s 12-module VOYGR-12 design (currently approved for 160 MWt or 50 MWe per NPM) became the first and only SMR to receive a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Standard Design Approval (SDA). The approval was a critical milestone that allows customers to move forward with plans to develop VOYGR power plants, knowing that safety aspects of the NuScale design are NRC-approved. In 2022, we plan to submit an application seeking an SDA for an increase in NPM power from 50 MWe to 77 MWe (160 MWt to 250 MWt) per module, which we expect to receive in 2024. NuScale expects to be ready to deliver modules to customers by 2027.

The unique NuScale SMR has several key defining characteristics, including:

● Proven. Our NPM technology leverages existing light water nuclear reactor technology and fuel supply that have been operating globally for over 60 years.

● Simple. NuScale’s simple design, based on natural circulation, integrates the reactor core, steam generators and pressurizer in a single factory-built vessel and eliminates the need for reactor coolant circulating pumps, large bore piping and other components found in conventional large-scale nuclear reactors. This simplicity improves safety and reduces capital and operational costs.

● Scalable. In addition to its flagship 12-module (924 MWe) VOYGR-12 power plant, NuScale will offer smaller power plant solutions including the six-module (462 MWe) VOYGR-6 and the four- module (308 MWe) VOYGR-4. These VOYGR power plants can commence operation with one module and scale to house up to their approved capacity of twelve, six or four modules, respectively. This scalability allows customers to right-size their up-front capital investment and economically increase installed capacity over time through the addition of NPMs as needed.

● Safe. VOYGR power plants have been designed to be the safest in the world, and have several key, industry-first advantages over conventional large-scale nuclear plants, including an unlimited “coping” period during which the NPMs can be shut down and kept in a safe condition without operator intervention, AC or DC power, or any additional cooling water. As a result, we have numerous operational and commercial advantages including a safety case that supports a small, site-boundary emergency planning zone designation by the NRC, as well as various resiliency and reliability features including the ability to start and operate a plant without AC or DC power to provide first- responder power.

In addition to the sale of NPMs and our VOYGR power plant designs, NuScale will offer a diversified suite of services throughout the development and operating life of the power plant. Our suite of services includes licensing support, testing, training, fuel supply services, and program management, among others. We anticipate that our service offering will have high penetration rates across our customer base and will provide consistent, recurring revenues to

47

NuScale throughout the life of the VOYGR power plant. We expect service revenue to begin approximately eight years prior to a power plant’s commercial operation date and to extend throughout the life of the power plant.

Our potential customers are a mix of domestic and international governments, political subdivisions, utilities, state-owned enterprises and industrial companies in need of carbon-free, reliable energy. Our first contract to deploy a VOYGR power plant is with UAMPS. UAMPS is expected to deploy a six-module (462 MWe) VOYGR-6 power plant as part of its CFPP located at the Idaho National Laboratory near Idaho Falls, Idaho. Construction at the CFPP is expected to begin in 2025 and the plant is expected to be operational in 2029. Additionally, in November 2021, we signed a teaming agreement with S.N. Nuclearelectrica to advance the delivery of our technology in Romania as early as 2027. In total, our sales pipeline currently includes over 110 active customer opportunities and 20 signed Memoranda of Understanding (“MOUs”) globally.

To date, the DOE has granted NuScale four separate cost-share awards totaling more than $656 million, including $350 million as part of a 5-year, $700 million 50/50 cost-share award granted in 2020. NuScale also benefits from a global network of strategic investors and supply chain partners that we expect will play an integral role in bringing NuScale’s technology to market around the world.

Fluor, a leading global EPC firm, is the majority investor in NuScale and collaborates with NuScale on plant standard design and the provision of EPC services to NuScale’s customers. Other strategic investors and supply chain partners include Doosan; Sargent & Lundy, LLC; Sarens; JGC; IHI; GS Energy Corporation; and Samsung C&T, among others.

Industry

According to BloombergNEF’s New Energy Outlook 2021 “Red Scenario” (“NEO 2021”), which includes SMR capacity as part of the pathway to global net-zero carbon emissions, global power consumption is expected to increase 191% between 2020 and 2040, requiring approximately 22,000 gigawatts (“GW”) of additional generating capacity. Today, the energy and power markets are undergoing dramatic changes as they shift from fossil fuels to carbon-free sources. A series of technological, economic, regulatory, social and investor pressures are leading the drive to decarbonize electricity and other sectors, such as transportation (electric vehicles) and buildings (electric heating). As such, the majority of required global capacity additions, including the replacement of existing carbon-intensive power generation, is expected to come from carbon- free generation.

Technology Improvements. Technology advancements will continue to have a tremendous influence on world energy mix in the future. According to the BloombergNEF, solar photovoltaic (“PV”) capacity has grown 37% annually since 2000 and now accounts for approximately 10% of global power generation capacity. A primary reason for this growth has been technological advances throughout the solar value chain, resulting in an approximate 96% decline in PV module prices from $4.90 to $0.20 per watt over that same period, according to International Energy Agency. We believe that technological improvements in SMRs and other carbon-free generation sources will catalyze similar adoption trends going forward.

Economic and Reliability Requirements. Utilities are looking to deploy carbon-free power generation technologies due to a variety of economic and reliability drivers. Renewables, such as wind and solar, now have a levelized cost of electricity similar to that of many traditional forms of power and have become a focal point in the push to deploy carbon-free generation. However, renewables alone are not a practical solution for regional power grids and baseload generation is required to solve for factors such as intermittency, transmission constraints and land use limitations. In these cases, we believe that nuclear, and specifically SMRs, are the only viable carbon-free baseload power solution that can address the global need for carbon- free generation.

Regulatory Mandates and Government Funding. On December 8, 2021, President Biden signed an executive order mandating all electricity procured by the government be 100% carbon pollution-free by 2030, including at least 50% from around-the-clock dispatchable generation sources. The order also requires that federally owned buildings produce no net emissions by 2045 and that each federal agency achieve 100% zero-emission vehicle acquisitions by 2035. Additionally, on November 15, 2021, the U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was signed into law that includes

48

$65 billion in funding for power and grid investments. This includes investments in grid reliability and resiliency as well as clean energy technologies such as carbon capture, hydrogen and advanced nuclear, including SMRs.

Internationally, more than 190 countries and the European Union have signed the Paris Agreement, which seeks to keep the rise in mean global temperature to below 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Currently, more than 130 countries, including China and the United States — the countries with the first and second largest CO2 emissions globally — have now set, or are considering setting, a target of reducing net emissions to zero by mid-century.

Social and Environmental Preferences. The effects of climate change, including extreme weather events and rising temperature, and the resulting health and socio-economic stability of at-risk populations, have led to a societal focus on the environment. As a result, a global shift is occurring in societal preferences for a reduction in greenhouse gases and a move towards carbon-free power.

Investor Pressures. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investing has accelerated as institutional investors shift their portfolios away from carbon-intensive assets. According to a recent study by the Global Sustainable Investment Alliance, in 2020 approximately 36% of global assets under management are “sustainable investments” that consider ESG factors. This shift in investor sentiment has caused many large integrated energy companies, such as BP plc and Royal Dutch Shell plc, to set decarbonization strategies and diversify into different forms of carbon- free energy.

Our Market Opportunity

According to the NEO 2021, approximately 16,000 GW of carbon-free generation capacity additions are required globally through 2040 to meet domestic and international climate goals. These additions are a result of the growth in projected power use and the replacement of existing carbon-intensive generation, primarily from coal, oil, and natural gas.

Although critical in helping meet climate goals, renewables, such as solar and wind, and hydroelectric are constrained due to intermittency, seasonality and issues associated with land use and grid interconnections. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average 2020 capacity factor (the ratio of actual power output over generation capacity) for solar, wind and hydro was 24.2%, 35.3%, and 40.7%, respectively, compared to 92.4% for nuclear. In most regions globally, flexible and dispatchable sources, such as long-duration storage, geothermal, gas, coal with carbon capture and nuclear will be essential. Among these sources, SMRs represent an attractive option based on their near-term viability, competitive costs, carbon-free emissions and reliability.

Market Opportunity and the Role of SMRs

SMRs are nuclear reactors rated to generate 300 MWe or less, are designed with scalable technology using module factory fabrication, and pursue economies of series production and short construction times. The four primary technologies currently being pursued in SMRs are water-cooled reactors, fast neutron reactors, high temperature gas reactors and molten salt reactors. Light water reactors, such as our NPM, are considered by the World Nuclear Association to have the lowest technological risk and are the most developed from a commercial perspective.

SMRs have a number of inherent advantages over traditional large-scale nuclear and other carbon-free power generation, including:

●Simplicity of Design. Large scale nuclear plants, which typically generate 1 GW or more, are complex in terms of design and construction. SMRs are simpler to manufacture, construct, operate and maintain. SMRs are also designed to eliminate many of the nuclear components needed in large- scale plants which adds to their simplicity.

●Enhanced Safety Features. Although our NPM is the only SMR with an NRC-approved safety case, according to the DOE, “small modular reactors have the potential for enhanced safety and security compared to earlier designs.” The smaller reactor core and reduced potential for off-site release from SMRs means SMRs may be located closer to population centers and industrial facilities needing process heat.

49

●Economics versus Traditional Nuclear. Traditional large-scale nuclear facilities have high upfront capital costs due to the size of the power plants as well as long construction times. These plants require significant resource planning and utilities have hesitated to deploy the capital necessary to build large- scale nuclear plants because of these high costs. SMRs are simpler, smaller and the reactors are largely factory built, leading to lower overall costs and greater cost predictability.

●Modular and Scalable. At 300 MWe or less, SMRs can more easily match customer needs and avoid surplus capacity. Modularity results in splitting power plant development between the factory and the field, reducing the schedule risk that has impacted large reactor construction projects. The NuScale modular design has the benefit to customers of being right-sizable upon construction and scalable over time.

●Smaller Footprint. According to information published by E3 Consulting, we estimate that our SMR uses up to 99% less land per MWh compared to wind and solar projects. We expect this resource efficiency will also extend to construction materials, such as steel, cement, concrete, and glass: according to a 2015 DOE study, nuclear power generators required 90% less construction material on a tons per terawatt-hour basis than wind and solar upstream collection systems and generators. Furthermore, SMRs can be sited closer to the end-user, significantly reducing the need for transmission infrastructure while also providing ancillary benefits such as process heat to end users.

Our Technology

	Our NPM is the product of approximately 14 years of research and development by NuScale and key collaborators, including Oregon State University and the Idaho National Laboratory. Over $1.3 billion (including non-dilutive DOE grants) has been invested to date and the technology is protected by 639 issued and pending patents globally.
	A NuScale power plant is composed of multiple NPMs. Each NPM is capable of producing 77 MWe. The NPM consists of an integral reactor composed of the reactor core, helical coil steam generators and pressurizer within the reactor pressure vessel, enclosed in a steel containment vessel. The reactor core consists of an array of fuel assemblies and control rod clusters at standard enrichments. The helical coil steam generator consists of two independent sets of tube bundles with separate feedwater inlet and steam outlet lines. The integral reactor measures 65 feet tall and 9 feet in diameter. The containment vessel measures 76 feet tall and 15 feet in diameter and is much smaller and stronger than the concrete containment shells for large reactors. The NPM operates inside a stainless-steel lined water-filled pool located below ground level.
Our NPM technology leverages existing light water nuclear reactor technology and fuel that has been operating globally for over 60 years. The reactor operates using the principles of buoyancy-driven natural circulation; hence, no pumps are needed to circulate water through the reactor. Once the heated water reaches the top of the riser, it turns downward into an annulus where the hot water flows over the steam generator tubes. Water in the reactor system is kept separate from the water inside the steam generator to prevent contamination. As the hot water in the reactor system passes over the hundreds of tubes in the steam generator, heat is transferred through the tube walls and the water inside the tubes turns to superheated steam. This innovative design eliminates the need for reactor coolant

50

pumps, large bore piping, complex safety systems and other components found in conventional large-scale nuclear reactors. The result is a simplified system that improves safety and reduces capital and operational costs.

Design Features and Innovations

Our NPM introduces a number of key design innovations that allows us to be the safest and most reliable provider of nuclear energy. Our design features include:

● Proven Technology. Our NPM design relies on well-established pressurized, light water reactor technology. As such, a VOYGR power plant can be licensed within the existing regulatory framework for light water reactors, drawing on a vast body of established research and development, proven codes and methods and existing regulatory standards. Because our technology was designed on the basis of this proven foundation, we believe NuScale has a significant advantage over other alternative and yet unproven nuclear technologies that may come to market, both with respect to obtaining regulatory approvals and attracting customer interest.

● Single, Integrated Unit. The NPM incorporates all of the components for steam generation and heat exchange into a single integrated unit. This design eliminates all large bore interconnection piping, which is historically a potential source of failure and cause of construction complexity for large- scale reactors.

● Compact Size. Each NPM, including the containment vessel, can be entirely fabricated in a factory and shipped by rail, truck, or barge to the power plant site for assembly and installation. Fabrication of the modules in a factory environment reduces fabrication cost, improves quality, reduces construction time and increases schedule predictability. This is a distinct benefit compared to traditional large-scale nuclear plants in which reactors are built on-site and only after their completion can the balance of the plant be constructed. We can fabricate our NPMs in parallel with VOYGR power plant construction, saving time and reducing complexity, labor and construction costs.

● Natural Circulation. The reactor core of our NPM is cooled entirely by natural water circulation. Natural circulation provides a significant advantage in that it reduces capital and operational costs by eliminating reactor coolant pumps, pipes, and valves and the associated power, maintenance, and potential failures of those components.

● Refueling and Maintenance Innovations. Each NPM can produce power continuously for approximately 20 months before refueling is required. Because of the multi-module design of VOYGR power plants, each NPM can be refueled in a staggered manner, reducing total plant output by only 77 MWe for approximately 10 days. This significantly reduces the cost of replacement power compared to large-scale nuclear plants (typically 1,000 MWe) that must shut down their entire capacity for any outage. Whereas large-scale nuclear plants can require as many as 1,000 or more individuals for refueling and associated outage activities, a VOYGR power plant can undergo the same refueling and outage activities with a much smaller, permanent, in-house crew of as few as 50 individuals.

● Multi-Module Control Room. NuScale has designed, and received NRC approval for, an innovative control room that can control up to 12 NPMs with only three licensed operators. This compares with traditional large-scale nuclear plants that require a minimum six licensed operators for three reactors. This innovation is enabled by NuScale’s proprietary platform called the Highly Integrated Protection System (“HIPS”). The HIPS platform provides a robust safety platform to monitor NPMs and protect VOYGR power plants from potential cybersecurity attacks.

Safety Case

NuScale’s design innovations have allowed for a number of industry first and best-in-class safety attributes.

51

● Unlimited “coping period”. Our NPMs are designed with fully passive safety systems and are kept safe in a cooling condition for an unlimited time following any extreme event that renders a power plant without external power. During the span of such an event and for an unlimited time, the VOYGR power plant does not require any internal or external human or computer actions, AC or DC power or additional water to cool the reactors (referred to as NuScale’s Triple Crown For Nuclear Plant Safety). An unlimited coping period is unprecedented for commercial light water nuclear reactors. Historically, commercial light water nuclear reactors have maximum coping periods of 72 hours before operator action is required to keep the reactor safe.

● Support for Site Boundary Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). NuScale ‘s VOYGR power plants have been designed to allow an NRC-approved EPZ that does not extend beyond the power plant site boundary (the restricted area controlled by the plant owner). In Tennessee Valley Authority’s Clinch River Early Site Permit issued by the NRC, the EPZ for a NuScale plant extended 0.21 miles from the reactor; currently operating commercial nuclear power plants in the U.S. are required to have a 10-mile radius EPZ from the reactor site and the population within the EPZ must be capable of evacuating within a specified time period. The smaller EPZ enables VOYGR power plants to be sited closer to end-users, which is of particular importance to process heat off-takers and to owners seeking to repower retiring coal-fired generation facilities.

● No Requirement for Backup Power. The NRC concluded that NuScale’s safety design eliminates the need for “Class 1E” power — i.e., safety-related, backup power. This means that VOYGR power plants do not need costly emergency diesel generators to ensure the safety of the reactors in the event of a power loss. Today, no operating nuclear plant in the United States can make this claim.

● Resilience to Man-made and Natural Events. The VOYGR reactor building is designed to withstand the impact from man-made and natural events, including floods, earthquakes (in excess of the Fukushima event), tornados and hurricanes in excess of 280 mph winds, and the impact of a large commercial airplane. The VOYGR power plant is also designed to safely shut down following an electromagnetic pulse or geomagnetic disturbance.

Technology-Enabled Operational Features

NuScale’s design innovations and best-in-class safety case create a number of technology-enabled operational features that no other carbon-free generation source can claim. These features address a host of critical industry needs with respect to grid resiliency and reliability and provide customers with related commercial benefits that other power generation solutions do not provide. Select features of NuScale’s VOYGR power plants include:

● First Responder Power. When the transmission grid is lost, traditional large-scale nuclear power plants automatically and rapidly shutdown. Large-scale nuclear power plants are not capable of restarting, nor are they permitted to do so, until the transmission grid is restored because power from the grid (supplied by two off-site sources) is required to operate the equipment necessary to start the power plant. The VOYGR power plant would remain at power, ready to immediately sell electricity to the grid when the grid is back online, making it a first responder to the restoration of the transmission grid.

● Black-Start Capability. A VOYGR power plant can start up from cold conditions without external grid connections. This NuScale design capability is a first-of-a-kind for the nuclear industry.

● Island Mode Power. A single NPM can supply all the “house load” electricity needs of the plant while also continuing to provide power to a local industrial customer or mission critical facility without external grid connection via a micro-grid connection.

● Highly Reliable Power. VOYGR-12 power plants will be able to provide 154 MWe of power to mission critical facilities with 99.95% availability over the 60-year life of the plant. In the event of a catastrophic loss of offsite grid and disruption of transportation infrastructure, a VOYGR-12 will be able to provide up to 120 MWe to a mission critical facility micro-grid for at least four years without refueling.

Design Validation and Testing

​ ​

NuScale’s safety design has been validated through rigorous testing of critical components, such as fuel assemblies, control rod and control rod mechanisms and the integral helical coil steam generators. NuScale has constructed an electrically-heated, one-third scale, full-pressure and temperature integral thermal-hydraulic test facility that demonstrates the operation of the entire nuclear steam supply system and safety systems.

In addition, we have proven the ability to safely operate 12 NPMs from a single control room by building and operating a full-scale simulated control room. Through comprehensive testing in this simulator, NuScale has shown that the demands on the reactor operators are significantly reduced compared with traditional large reactors, as a result of the simplicity of the design, advancements in digital controls, and the fact that NuScale’s design requires no operator initiated safety functions for all design basis events. Through comprehensive analyses, demonstrations and audits, the NRC has approved NuScale’s conduct of operation such that three licensed operators can safely operate a VOYGR-12 plant without the need for a Shift Technical Advisor, a key safety-related role required by the NRC for all existing large-scale nuclear plants.

Products and Services

NuScale has determined that it currently operates in a single segment and will periodically reassess that determination as it nears commercialization and deployment of its NPMs.

NuScale Power Modules and NuScale VOYGR Power Plants

NuScale currently offers VOYGR power plant designs for three standard facility sizes, capable of housing up to four, six or twelve NPMs. For each of these plant configurations, the total facility output can be as much as 308 MWe, 462 MWe, or 924 MWe, respectively, based on a nameplate capacity of each NPM of 77 MWe.

A customer seeking to deploy a VOYGR power plant will be granted a license from NuScale to construct, operate, maintain, and decommission the VOYGR plant. NuScale will also provide design and nuclear regulatory licensing basis information necessary for the customer to obtain needed regulatory approvals to construct and operate the power plant. In exchange for this license, the customer will pay an upfront technology licensing fee to NuScale.

Sale of NuScale Power Modules. In addition to the customer paid technology license, NuScale also expects to sell to the customer major nuclear engineered equipment. For the VOYGR power plant, this will consist of the NPMs, module assembly equipment and other equipment associated with the nuclear steam supply system. NuScale expects to provide

53

the manufacturing and delivery of modules to the customers’ VOYGR power plant site on a contracted basis. NuScale expects to receive payment related to the NPM coincident with the order of materials and commencement of manufacturing so that no working capital will be required from NuScale for work-in-progress or finished inventory.

The VOYGR-12, VOYGR-6 and VOYGR-4 can each commence operation with as few as one module and scale to house as many as twelve, six or four modules, respectively. This scalability allows customers to right-size their up-front capital investment and economically increase installed capacity over time through the addition of NPMs as needed.

Services

We will also offer customers a diversified suite of services throughout the life of the power plant, beginning approximately eight years prior to a plant’s commercial operation date. Pre- and post-operation date offerings provide customers with critical services related to the design, development, building, operation and maintenance of the VOYGR power plant. As a first-mover and developer of the core technology, we believe we are well positioned to be a trusted service provider. As such, we anticipate our services will have high penetration rates and will provide consistent, recurring revenues that could become significant once a large number of VOYGR plants are in operation.

Our services include:

● regulatory licensing and approval support, including in the United States preparation and prosecution support for the customer’s combined construction and operating license application to the NRC;

● start up and testing to satisfy nuclear regulator verification requirements;

● training to support initial and ongoing operations;

● management of all aspects of the regulatory inspections, tests analysis, and acceptance criteria process;

● mechanical handling and initial and ongoing fuel loading;

● design engineering management during commercial operation;

● operations and maintenance program management, including regulatory compliance reporting support;

● procurement and spare parts management;

● nuclear fuel management and outage planning and performance support; and

● system verification and validation for safety and non-safety systems.

Competitive Strengths

Only Viable Carbon-free Baseload Power. Nuclear is the only viable carbon-free baseload power available to address the global need for carbon-free generation and to meet decarbonization targets year- round. Traditional baseload technologies, such as gas and coal, are carbon intensive; traditional nuclear is costly, complex and frequently subject to cost-overruns; and hydroelectric power is dependent on geography, rainfall, curtailment and other factors. Renewables such as wind and solar are intermittent and weather dependent, and batteries have not been scaled to make these viable baseload power sources. SMRs such as NuScale’s VOYGR power plants provide highly reliable, cost-effective, carbon-free baseload power to electric grids — no other existing baseload technology can claim the same benefits on the scale needed to address the world’s growing needs.

Innovative Technology Platform and Intellectual Property Portfolio. We have 443 patents issued and an additional 196 patents pending. These 639 patents protect key aspects of our technology and we continue to grow our intellectual

54

property portfolio. In addition, we have a highly educated workforce of 496 employees, of whom 168 have master’s degrees in engineering and science and 37 have Ph.Ds. We believe our intellectual property rights, as well as our highly skilled personnel are important assets necessary to maintain our competitive advantage in the market and expand on our technology platform.

First to Receive an SDA Approval from the NRC. Although China and Russia have currently operating SMRs, ours is the first and only SMR to receive a SDA from the NRC. This is an important regulatory milestone that provides customers with certainty — knowing that the NRC approves of the plant design — before committing significant capital to develop a nuclear facility. The SDA process took NuScale 41 months to complete — including preparation, application and receipt of approval. This was the fastest any nuclear reactor company has ever received approval from the NRC. To date, no SMR or advanced reactor company other than NuScale has even applied to the NRC for SMR design approval. We believe that this, and the fact that our design approval timeline was based on well-established light water nuclear technology, provides NuScale with a solid competitive advantage over other SMR competitors.

Unparalleled Safety Case. NuScale’s innovative, fully passive safety system design addresses the historical concerns of traditional large-scale nuclear power plants. In the event of a total loss of power to the facility, a VOYGR power plant does not require any operator or computer actions, grid connection or emergency backup power or additional water to cool the reactors, and can remain safe indefinitely. All large-scale nuclear reactors require one or all three of these within a period of days. The rigorously tested safety case results in an array of applications and commercial opportunities for NuScale that traditional nuclear power plants cannot support, and VOYGR power plants can be located closer to end-users and population centers.

Global Network of Strategic Investors and Supply Chain Partners with DOE Support. We have developed a global network of blue-chip supply chain partners of which many are investors in NuScale. We believe these partners will play a critical role in the successful procurement and fabrication of components, manufacture of our NPMs and fuel supply. In addition, we have also received significant financial and regulatory support from the DOE since the inception of NuScale. No other SMR or advanced nuclear technology has received the level of awards or grants (combined, among us and our customers) that the NuScale design has, and we maintain a strong relationship with the DOE.

Cost-Competitive. Our technology is cost-competitive relative to other baseload power today. NuScale’s levelized cost of electricity (“LCOE”) is anticipated to be between $41/MWh and $64/MWh based on our cost estimates and application of the LCOE methodology, financing and inflation assumptions in EIA’s Levelized Costs of New Generation Resources in the Annual Energy Outlook 2021 study. We are cost-competitive in the United States, where the prevailing wholesale cost of baseload electricity is relatively low, and we are even more competitive globally where the baseload cost of electricity is typically higher. However, when customers decide on a generation technology, headline cost is not the only consideration. Our technology’s reliability, resiliency and flexibility are key attributes both customers and regulators value that are not captured in LCOE. We believe our competitive cost coupled with our differentiated capabilities gives us an advantage to other technologies.

Visionary Management Team. We have an experienced and passionate team of leaders and innovators who have developed the technology over the years and run the operations of the business today. Our management team has an average of approximately nine years at NuScale (founded 15 years ago) and 36 years in the energy industry. Our executives have extensive prior management experience in nuclear and engineering organizations, such as the NRC, United States Navy, DOE, General Electric Company, Exelon Corporation, Babcock & Wilcox Company, LLC and others. Among key members of NuScale’s extraordinary executive leadership team is Dr. José N. Reyes, Ph.D., co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of the Company. Dr. Reyes is co-designer of the NuScale SMR and is an internationally recognized expert on passive safety system design, testing and operations for nuclear power plants. Dr. Reyes has served as a technical expert at the International Atomic Energy Agency and as an engineer with the Reactor Safety Division of the NRC. He is Professor Emeritus in the School of Nuclear Science and Engineering at Oregon State University, was inducted into the National Academy of Engineering in 2018, and holds over 110 patents granted or pending in 20 countries.

Competition

Our competitors are other power generation technologies, including traditional baseload, renewables, long duration storage and other advanced nuclear reactors including SMRs. We believe our competitive strengths differentiate us from our competition globally, in part because NuScale’s SMR technology is currently the only NRC-approved technology capable of meeting the growing demand for carbon-free baseload generation.

Traditional Baseload. According to BloombergNEF, approximately 62% of global generation capacity in 2020 was natural gas, coal, oil and large-scale nuclear. These technologies are highly reliable, cost-effective, dispatchable and land use efficient. However, with the exception of traditional large-scale nuclear, these resources are carbon-intensive and we expect them to largely be replaced with carbon-free generation over time. Traditional large-scale nuclear power plants, while carbon-free, require significant upfront capital expenditures, have a history of extensive construction times, complex safety systems and do not have business cases apart from utility-scale generation. We believe our carbon-free SMR technology contains all of the positive attributes of traditional baseload and addresses many of the flaws of traditional nuclear power plants.

Renewables. According to BloombergNEF, approximately 38% of global generation capacity in 2020 was wind, solar, hydroelectric and other renewable power generation sources. Although these sources generate carbon-free power, wind and solar are highly intermittent and non-dispatchable, and hydroelectric is seasonal and subject to curtailment. Additionally, since renewables are weather-dependent, they are too unreliable to support certain end-use cases, including mission-critical applications or industrial applications that require extensive on-site, always-available power. Due to their innovative design NuScale VOYGR plants can operate as baseload generation, load-follow renewables and/or support key industrial applications.

Other Advanced Nuclear Reactors. There are several reactor technologies that are in various stages of development, such as high temperature gas-cooled reactors, fast reactors, molten salt reactors, fusion technologies and others, and commercial SMRs are currently operating in China and Russia. These technologies, like ours, are designed to be clean, safe and highly reliable. However, these technologies have not received regulatory approval in the United States, and many of the technologies have not been demonstrated and do not have fuel supply infrastructure in existence. Currently, we have the only SMR that has received a Standard Design Approval from the NRC, and no other SMR company or customer has even applied for approval. Achieving Standard Design Approval is a regulatory process that took us over $500 million to prepare and 41 months and over $200 million to complete.

Customers

NuScale’s potential customers include governments, political subdivisions, state-owned enterprises, investor-owned utilities, and other commercial and industrial companies, both in domestic and international markets. Our end-markets can be broken down into two general subsets: baseload generation and industrial applications. Baseload generation includes repurposing coal-fired facilities to nuclear or new clean baseload capacity. Many industrial customers require significant energy needs such as chemical plants, direct air capture facilities, hydrogen production facilities and water desalination plants. Our technology can provide the necessary reliable electricity and heat energy to these facilities in an environmentally efficient manner.

Today we have a pipeline of over 110 customer opportunities globally which range from customer leads (Class 5) to a contracted customer (Class 1). We currently have one contract in place with UAMPS, that has an anticipated commercial operation date in 2029. We also currently have 20 MOUs in place with both utility and industrial customers across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. MOUs are an important step toward advancing to a definitive Class 1 customer and we believe many of these MOUs will convert into signed contracts over time.

UAMPS. UAMPS is our first customer. UAMPS is a political subdivision of the State of Utah that provides energy services to public power systems in six western states. UAMPS plans to deploy a NuScale VOYGR-6 power plant for its CFPP located at the Idaho National Laboratory near Idaho Falls, Idaho. The DOE issued a Site Use Permit to UAMPS for the CFPP in February 2016, and the final site was selected in July 2019. In October 2020, the DOE approved a $1.4 billion multi-year cost share award to UAMPS’ wholly-owned subsidiary, CFPP LLC, to fund the development and

56

construction of the CFPP. In 2020, UAMPS started site characterization activities necessary for licensing and construction for the CFPP site. The anticipated commercial operation date for the plant, based on UAMPS schedule, is 2029. We are currently under contract to provide various services to CFPP including support of license applications, startup and testing, initial training and initial fuel services. Additional details regarding, and risks associated with, our arrangements with UAMPS is described in “Risk Factors — Commercialization Risk

Factors — We may be unable to charge UAMPS, our first customer, for some costs we have incurred and we may be required to reimburse UAMPS if we fail to achieve specified performance measures.”

Other Potential Customers. We have signed non-binding MOUs with 20 potential customers around the world, including in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Potential customers with which we have publicly announced MOUs include Bruce Power, CEZ Group, Grant County PUD, S.N. Nuclearelectrica, Shearwater Energy, Prodigy Clean Energy Ltd., Energoatom, Kazakhstan Nuclear Power Plant, Kozloduy NPP — New Build Plc, and Dairyland Power Cooperative.

On November 4, 2021, NuScale and Nuclearelectrica, a national energy company in Romania that produces electricity, heat, and nuclear fuel, signed a teaming agreement to advance the delivery of NuScale’s SMR technology as early as 2027. Through this partnership, Romania has the potential to accommodate the first deployment of SMRs in Europe, positioning our technology to lead the global race for SMR deployment.

NuScale LLC and Poland’s KGHM Polska Miedz (KGHM) have signed an agreement to initiate the deployment of NuScale’s small modular reactor (SMR) technology. The agreement with KGHM, a Poland-based leader in copper and silver production, will position KGHM as a clean energy implementation leader with the first deployment of SMRs in Poland. NuScale will work with KGHM to support the deployment of SMR technology, and together, the organizations will take steps toward deploying a first NuScale VOYGR power plant in Poland as early as 2029. The first task issued under the agreement is for NuScale to work with KGHM to identify and assess potential project sites and develop project planning milestones and cost estimates. These activities will support KGHM as it evaluates NuScale VOYGR plants as a coal repurposing solution for existing power plants, as well as opportunities to deploy VOYGR plants to provide, carbon-free, reliable energy for their operations and to support other Polish industrial energy users.

Growth Strategy

We intend to grow our business by leveraging our competitive advantages in scalability, safety, reliability and cost. We have a number of avenues to achieve our growth objectives:

Traditional and New Applications. We believe the market for NuScale VOYGR power plants is wherever non-intermittent, reliable, carbon-free power is needed. Initially, we are focused on replacing carbon intensive coal-fired power plants and as an alternative to new-build gas-fired generation. Additionally, we are focused on marketing VOYGR power plants to industrial and micro-grid customers in sectors that include direct air capture, water desalinization, hydrogen production and mission critical facilities.

International Customer Development. We continue to develop our international customer base as we foresee a majority of our customer demand over the long-term to be outside of the United States. Our team puts significant effort into developing dialogue with foreign governments and corporations in order to educate and market our technology. The 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference and other global climate events have generated significant inbound interest from potential global customers. We will continue to strengthen relations with these parties to accelerate sales globally. In our sales pipeline we have identified more than 45 potential international customers with interest in exploring nuclear power for their baseload needs.

Technology Advancements. Using our innovative technology platform and robust intellectual property portfolio, NuScale is well-positioned to continue making technology advancements over time. These improvements include increasing power output, simplifying operations, reducing construction time, and reducing production cost. Just as we increased power to 77 MWe per module without increasing module size or construction costs, our R&D team is

57

continuously researching and developing ways to improve our technology and meet our customers’ energy needs — creating top line growth opportunities and potential for additional margin capture by NuScale over time.

Development of New Products. We continue to explore the development of innovative new products based on our core NPM technology. For example, we are developing a micro-reactor for niche end-markets. Our micro-reactor design is a 0.01 MWe to 10 MWe module intended to supply power to remote, off-grid, and small communities. Use applications could include mining, universities, space power, military installations, and disaster relief. These micro-reactors are expected to be small, compact, highly reliable, fully automated, and rapidly deployable.

Supply Chain

We have an established global supply chain ecosystem for all NPM components and for the construction of VOYGR power plants. We also have strategic and commercial partnerships in place globally that allow us to outsource the manufacturing of key NPM components, including the upper and lower reactor pressure vessels (riser and core internals), the steam generator, and the upper and lower containment vessels.

We are working with suppliers, such as Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction; BWX Technologies, Inc.; Precision Castparts Corp.; Sarens; Curtiss-Wright Corporation; and IHI, among others, who we expect to build components of NPMs to our specifications. Other key suppliers include Framatome, SA (fuel assemblies), Honeywell International Inc. (control systems), Rock Creek Innovations, LLC (protection systems), Sensia LLC (sensors and instrumentation) and PaR Systems, Inc. (reactor building crane).

Partnerships

Fluor. Fluor, a leading global EPC firm, is the majority investor in NuScale and collaborates with NuScale on plant design and is a provider of engineering, project management, procurement, and construction services. A number of the strategic investors including Fluor have business collaboration agreements with NuScale, which are described in “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions — NuScale LLC Related Person Transactions.”

DOE. The U.S. Department of Energy has granted NuScale four separate cost-share awards totaling more than $656 million to develop, certify, and commercialize our SMR technology. DOE-funded research in 2003 helped accelerate the development of NuScale’s SMR prior to forming NuScale in 2007. In addition to the DOE awards made to NuScale, UAMPS, our first customer, has received a $1.4 billion DOE cost-share award to support deployment of a NuScale VOYGR-6 power plant.

Strategic Investors. NuScale has a global network of strategic investors and supply chain partners that we expect to play an integral role in bringing our technology to market around the world. In addition to Fluor, existing strategic investors and supply chain partners include Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction, Sargent & Lundy, Sarens, JGC Holdings, IHI, GS Energy and Samsung C&T.

Collaboration with Academic Institutions. NuScale has benefited from independent research, peer- reviewed studies, and testing conducted by and with academic institutions, including Oregon State University, Boise State, Colorado School of Mines, University of Houston, University of Idaho, Kansas State, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, POLIMI (Italy), University of Sheffield (U.K.), University of Tennessee, Texas A&M, Utah State University, University of Utah, University of Wisconsin and University of Wyoming.

Other Collaboration. NuScale has been working with the International Atomic Energy Agency and regulators in Canada, Japan, the U.K. and Ukraine, and will be or are supporting our customers’ engagement with regulators in other international jurisdictions. We expect that our strategic relationships with governmental agencies will help facilitate the licensing our SMR in the United States and abroad, and that our relationships with experienced private companies, which have offices and projects in countries with potential NuScale customers, will allow us to reach customers globally. A number of the strategic investors have business collaboration agreements with NuScale, which are described in “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions — NuScale LLC Related Person Transactions.”

Intellectual Property

As of May 1, 2022, NuScale had been issued 443 patents globally, and had 196 pending patents. These 639 patents, filed across 18 jurisdictions including in the U.S., protect key aspects of our technology and continue to grow our intellectual property portfolio. We believe our intellectual property rights are important assets for our success and we aggressively protect these rights to maintain our competitive advantage in the market. NuScale’s patents expire on dates ranging from November 2027 through September 2040, and the average expiration date of our registered patents is 2032. We regularly review our development efforts to assess the existence and patentability of new inventions, and we are prepared to file additional patent applications when we determine it would benefit our business to do so.

We own all necessary rights to the intellectual property associated with our technology to allow any capable manufacturer the ability to fabricate or build to print all components of the NPM. Approximately one-third of our patent portfolio relates to our safety system, one-third relates to power production, and the remaining third to other categories such as software and to the reactor module, operability, modularity, and inspection. NuScale’s proprietary software, to control up to 12 NPMs, was developed in-house and has been approved by the NRC. We manage our patent portfolio to maximize the lifecycle of protecting our intellectual property, and various components and aspects of our system are protected by patents that will expire at staggered times.

Research & Development

The NuScale team has spent 15 years on R&D and testing and invested over $1.3 billion (including non-dilutive DOE grants) to date to develop its technology. Prior to forming our company in 2007, DOE- funded research from 2000 to 2003 helped accelerate the development of our SMR. Our current R&D efforts are centered on introducing new product innovations, improving plant quality and lowering the lifecycle cost of our NPMs and VOYGR plants. The R&D team is also involved in developing new innovative technologies that will represent future product offerings of NuScale, including advanced micro-reactor technologies.

On February 4, 2020, NuScale entered into an Assistance Agreement (as amended and partially restated on January 7, 2022, “Assistance Agreement”) with the DOE. The Assistance Agreement provides for shared public-private funding of $700 million of qualified costs associated with our product development. The cost-share is up to 50% of qualifying costs and, excluding recovery of unqualified costs or fraud or other malfeasance in obtaining or using the funds and subject to annual Congressional appropriations, the award is irrevocable. As described in our manufacturing plan, which was submitted to the DOE, we have committed to substantially manufacture the specific components that are either conceptualized or first developed using DOE funds in the United States. As part of our arrangements with the DOE, we granted the DOE a worldwide, nonexclusive, paid-up license to our intellectual property and to manufacture our SMR technology, and the right to sublicense those rights if specified conditions arise, including if the DOE terminates the award due to material failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the award, or if we fail to meet our cost-sharing obligations or cease developing our SMR. If a sublicense right arises, specified parties, including our strategic investors, have a right of first refusal to the sublicensed rights provided that they substantially fulfill cost-sharing requirements, adhere to other DOE requirements, and actively pursue developing the SMR technology. We are in compliance with all of our obligations under the Assistance Agreement and, as a result, do not foresee relinquishing our intellectual property rights to the DOE or third parties. While the NuScale manufacturing plan is compliant with our obligations under the Assistance Agreement to substantially manufacture certain components in the U.S., our plan contemplates awarding scopes of supply to our strategic partners, several of which are not U.S.-based, and we expect to rely on carve-outs available in the Assistance Agreement for these obligations, which, in some cases, are subject to approval by the DOE.

Periodically, we engage in joint research and development projects with academic institutions where ongoing research requirements overlap, with each party paying their own costs and expenses. We are careful to delineate ownership of resulting intellectual property and in particular intellectual property we believe will be important to our business.

59

Human Capital

As of May 8, 2022, we had 496 full-time employees with an aggregate of 205 advanced degrees, including 168 master’s degrees in engineering and science and 37 Ph.Ds. Twelve percent of our engineers are veterans. Our workforce is concentrated in the Portland and Corvallis, Oregon areas, but we have employees working in 34 states and the District of Columbia. We have a seasoned leadership team with over 250 years of cumulative experience in the nuclear industry. Our management team places significant focus and attention on matters concerning our human capital assets, particularly our diversity, capability development, and succession planning. Accordingly, we regularly review employee development and succession plans for each of our functions to identify and develop our pipeline of talent.

Approximately 25% of our full-time employees are women and 16% belong to historically underrepresented groups. Two of our top 12 officers are women, and one top officer belongs to a historically underrepresented group in the science and technology sectors. NuScale is a signatory to the International Energy Agency Clean Energy Ministerial’s “Equal by 30 Campaign”, a public commitment to increase the number of women in the clean energy sector by 2030. NuScale has been an active supporter of Women in Nuclear (WiN), with NuScale executives and staff serving in WiN leadership roles nationally and in local chapters. NuScale is also a long-time supporter of North American Young Generation in Nuclear, a non-profit organization providing opportunities for a young generation of nuclear enthusiasts to develop strong leadership and professional skills, to engage and inform the public, and inspire today’s nuclear technology professionals to meet the challenges of the 21st century, and the American Nuclear Society.

Facilities

NuScale LLC is a limited liability company organized in Oregon and has five key leased U.S. locations in four states.

● Portland, OR. NuScale’s headquarters office houses accounting, marketing, human resources and legal staff.

● Corvallis, OR. NuScale’s engineering and design center in Corvallis houses over 200 staff members, with capacity for 340, in approximately 64,000 square feet of office, computing, and storage space. Technical and related support activities such as engineering, design, operations, testing, code development, quality assurance, licensing, and project management are performed at this facility. Our full-scale reactor control room simulator and computational computing cluster are also located at this facility. NuScale personnel use the computational cluster in a secure data center to perform structural, thermal hydraulic, fluid dynamics, and neutronics calculations.

● Richland, WA. The Richland office houses staff focused on operations, human factors, plant services, and maintenance planning, with a functional limited-scale simulator that has communication capability with the Corvallis full-scale simulator.

● Charlotte, NC. The Charlotte office provides access to experienced nuclear operations resources in the area, housing engineering, quality assurance, licensing, and information technology personnel.

● Rockville, MD. The Rockville office has been a key enabler for the NuScale strategy of early, frequent, and responsive interaction with the NRC.

We believe the location of our Corvallis facilities provides us with unique access to the technical expertise found in one of the largest nuclear engineering programs on the west coast. Our Charlotte office was opened to tap into the large pool of Charlotte-based commercial nuclear supplier experts. Leasing our facilities gives us the flexibility expand or reduce our office space as appropriate as we shift from product development to deployment. As a result of COVID-19, we have expanded the portion of our workforce that is working remotely.

60

Our current facilities are adequate for our current operating needs, and we have access to other facilities, through contractual arrangements, for hardware display, development, and testing. We anticipate building out additional space for training facilities and other needs as we move closer to field deployment of VOYGR plants and associated services.

Nuclear Safety Regulation

The commercial nuclear industry is heavily regulated in all countries, and regulatory approval is required for the design, construction, and operation of every nuclear plant. Generally, nuclear safety regulators consider design safety and robustness against internal hazards (e.g., component failures and fires) and external hazards (e.g., earthquakes and weather loads such as snow, rain and wind), and environmental impacts of construction and operations (e.g., water use and preservation of historical sites and animal and plant species). Regulation must be addressed on a country-by-country basis, although regulators often collaborate when a design is deployed in multiple countries.

Our licensing strategy has two goals: (1) obtain approval in the shortest possible time by engaging the regulator early and developing high quality applications; and (2) maintain a common design of the NPM in as many markets as possible by leveraging the highly regarded NRC Standard Design Approval during each regulatory approval process.

Nuclear Safety Regulatory Approval in the United States

We submitted a Design Certification Application (“DCA”) in December 2016 to the NRC, comprising 12,000 pages, with approximately 2,000,000 pages of additional documentation and 100 gigabytes of test data. Development of the DCA required approximately $500 million in testing and engineering. Approval by the NRC included over 250,000 review hours at a cost of approximately $70 million. In addition to paying the NRC review fees, we incurred approximately $130 million in costs responding to numerous NRC requests for additional information, analyses and audits. Despite the intensity of the review, the NRC approved the NuScale design in 41 months — the fastest approval ever completed by the agency. We received the SDA for our 50 MWe NPM and VOYGR-12 plant design in August 2020, and our SMR design is currently the only SMR with such an approval.

For a NuScale plant to be constructed and operated, a customer must develop and submit a license application for its site, and can speed its own regulatory approval by integrating our NRC-approved NPM and plant design. We expect to obtain additional NRC approval of an array of plant configurations desired by customers. For example, we have seen strong customer interest in the VOYGR-6 and we plan to submit an SDA application for this configuration at the end of 2022. Because NRC review should be limited to differences from the VOYGR-12 plant design, we expect NRC review time for the new configuration will be approximately 24 months. Customers that use our NRC-approved NPMs and configurations may incorporate our SDAs into their license applications, which means the NRC will not re-review the NuScale design during customers’ licensing reviews and will limit its review to site specific design features (e.g., physical security systems, water intake structures, on-site emergency plan), operational programs (e.g., maintenance, emergency preparedness), and environmental impacts. We believe that the ability to reference the SDA, and provide only site specific information to file a license application for a NuScale plant, gives us a competitive advantage and makes our SMR attractive to potential customers.

Nuclear Safety Regulatory Approval Internationally

Generally speaking, most countries limit license applications to the proposed owner and/or operator of nuclear power plants. Where appropriate in support of a customer or at the request of the regulator, we intend to engage early with regulators in each country of interest, consistent with our approach in the U.S.

The NRC has bilateral relationships with many other countries and participates in several international support organizations, including the International Atomic Energy Agency (“IAEA”), the Nuclear Energy Agency, and the International Nuclear Regulators Association. We expect NRC approval will substantially benefit our ability to obtain regulatory approvals internationally, and will give foreign regulators confidence that the NuScale design is safe. We also expect to benefit from the NRC’s regulatory assistance program, through which the NRC would collaborate with other countries’ regulators to understand the basis for the NRC approval of our NPM and nuclear plant configurations.

61

NuScale is also engaging directly with the IAEA to facilitate regulatory approval abroad. The IAEA, while not a regulator, is important because many countries’ regulatory frameworks were developed from IAEA standards, which are somewhat different from the NRC framework. We plan to initiate in 2022 a full scope Generic Safety Review (GSR) with the IAEA. A GSR is an early evaluation of a vendor’s proposed submission of an application for a new nuclear power plant utilizing IAEA safety standards with respect to both fundamentals and requirements. The purpose of this review is to identify strengths and gaps or weaknesses of the safety case to expedite licensing in countries that employ IAEA safety guidelines.

In addition, we have had significant interaction with safety regulators and energy ministries in many of the countries where there is significant customer interest. For example: we have worked through material parts of the Vendor Design Review process with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission; we have completed a technology assessment conducted by the Office of Nuclear Regulation in the U.K.; we are working through a licensing gap analysis (comparing local and U.S. requirements) with the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate in Ukraine; and we have performed analysis of NuScale plant safety, economy and maneuverability under a study funded by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

Other Regulation

In addition to nuclear safety regulation, NuScale is subject to other nuclear regulatory controls such as export control, nuclear material safeguards and non-proliferation restrictions, and liability insurance regimes (e.g., Price-Andersen Act, the 1960 Paris Convention, the 1963 Vienna Convention, and the 1997 Convention on Supplementary Compensation). NuScale plans to sell its plants only in jurisdictions where nuclear liability is exclusively channeled to the plant operator.

Customers purchasing NuScale plants also must obtain required permits, licenses, and insurance for the jurisdiction where the facility will be located. In the U.S., a NuScale plant developer must obtain an NRC construction license issued pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or a combined construction and operating license issued pursuant to 10 CFR Part 52. Other U.S. federal permits or licenses for a NuScale plant may include a Section 404 Dredge & Fill Permit issued by the Army Corps of Engineers; a Federal Aviation Administration § 77.15 Permit; a Certificate of Registration issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation; and a Spills Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. State or local regulators may also require permits or licenses for a NuScale plant, including a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit for Storm Water Discharges from Construction Activities and to Construct a Sanitary Wastewater, Wastewater Treatment facility; Section 401 Water Quality Certification; Well Permits; Solid Waste Handling Permit; and appropriate building permits.

Export Controls

NuScale’s business is subject to, and complies with, stringent U.S. import and export control laws, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) regulations from the Bureau of Industry and Security which is part of the U.S. Department of Commerce, and regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The regulations exist to advance the national security and foreign policy interests of the U.S. and to further its nonproliferation policies. Nuclear technology, also known as technical data, is controlled by 10 CFR Part 810, under the regulations of the DOE. Nuclear hardware and codes specifically designed or modified for use in a nuclear reactor are controlled by the NRC under 10 CFR Part 110.

The U.S. government agencies responsible for administering the EAR and other export control regulations have a degree of discretion interpreting and enforcing these regulations. These agencies also have significant discretion in approving, denying, or instituting specific conditions regarding authorizations to engage in controlled activities. Such decisions are influenced by the U.S. government’s commitments to multilateral export control regimes, particularly the Nuclear Suppliers Group, a group of nuclear supplier countries that seek to prevent nuclear proliferation by controlling the export of materials, equipment and technology that can be used to manufacture nuclear weapons.

Many different types of internal controls and measures are required to ensure compliance with such export control regulations. For example, 10 CFR Part 810, Appendix A provides a list of countries that are considered Generally

62

Authorized meaning they are considered to be non-sensitive. Countries not on this list are required to be specifically authorized prior to sharing any nuclear technology. Under Part 110, the NRC regulates the export or import of nuclear hardware, material and code, following the same sensitive countries vs. non sensitive countries regulatory structure embedded in 10 CFR Part 810.

Legal Proceedings

We do not consider any claims, lawsuits, or proceedings that are currently pending against NuScale, individually or in the aggregate, to be material to our business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on our future operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. From time to time, we may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and other legal and administrative proceedings that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may range in complexity and result in substantial uncertainty; it is possible that they may result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief.

On April 25, 2022, five holders of common units of NuScale LLC filed a complaint against NuScale LLC in Washington County, Oregon Circuit Court. Plaintiffs contend that the conversion of NuScale LLC Preferred Units into NuScale LLC Common Units (the “Preferred Conversion”) (i) violates the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of NuScale LLC, (ii) could not occur absent approval of a majority vote of the Common Members consenting as a separate class, (iii) constitutes minority oppression, and (iv) would improperly dilute the value of the Common Members’ Common Units. Plaintiffs seek a declaration to this effect and an injunction prohibiting NuScale LLC from executing the Preferred Conversion or implementing the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement.

NuScale LLC does not believe plaintiffs’ claims have any merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.

Japan NuScale Innovation, LLC Director Nomination Right

In connection with the Fluor-JNI Purchase, upon receipt of the applicable CFIUS approval, Japan NuScale Innovation, LLC will have the right to nominate one individual to the NuScale Corp Board. In such event, upon approval by NuScale Corp’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Fluor shall be required to vote its shares of NuScale Corp in favor of electing such nominee. Please see the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—NuScale LLC Related Person Transactions—Secondary Sale to Japan NuScale Innovation, LLC” for further information.

Corporate Governance

Notable features of NuScale’s corporate governance structure include:

● independent director representation on the audit committee, and the independent directors will meet regularly in executive sessions without the presence of NuScale Corp’s corporate officers or non-independent directors;

● at least one of NuScale Corp’s directors will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC; and

● other corporate governance best practices such as implementing a robust director education program.

Role of Board in Risk Oversight

The Board has extensive involvement in the oversight of risk management related to NuScale Corp and its business and will accomplish this oversight through the regular reporting to the Board by the audit committee. The audit committee represents the Board by periodically reviewing NuScale Corp’s accounting, reporting and financial practices, including the integrity of its financial statements, the surveillance of administrative and financial controls and its compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Through its regular meetings with management, including the finance, legal, internal audit and information technology functions, the audit committee reviews and discusses all significant areas of NuScale Corp’s business and summarize for the Board all areas of risk and the appropriate mitigating factors. In addition, the Board will receive periodic detailed operating performance reviews from management.

Controlled Company Exemption

Fluor, a wholly owned subsidiary of Fluor Corporation, beneficially owns a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of NuScale Corp’s common stock. As a result, NuScale Corp is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE’s corporate governance standards. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements to have: (i) a board of directors composed of a majority of independent directors; (ii) a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; (iii) a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; and (iv) an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees. For at least some period, NuScale Corp may utilize these exemptions since the Board has not yet made a determination with respect to the independence of all directors. Pending such determination, you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements. As discussed below, all members of the NuScale Corp audit committee are independent directors. If NuScale Corp ceases to be a “controlled company” and its shares continue to be listed on the NYSE, NuScale Corp will be required to comply with these standards and, depending on the Board’s independence determination with respect to its then-current directors, NuScale Corp may be required to add additional directors to the Board order to achieve such compliance within the applicable transition periods.

70

Board Committees

The standing committees of the Board consists of an audit committee, an organization and compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The Board may from time to time establish other committees.

Our president and chief executive officer and other executive officers regularly report to the non-executive directors and the audit committee to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls. We believe that the leadership structure of the Board provides appropriate risk oversight of NuScale’s activities given the controlling interests held by NuScale’s majority owner, Fluor.

Audit Committee

We have an audit committee consisting of Messrs. Kresa (chair), Hackett and Ms. Warnica. Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and qualifies as an independent director under the NYSE corporate governance standards and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Mr. Kresa qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K and possesses financial sophistication, as defined under the rules of the NYSE.

The purpose of the audit committee is to prepare the audit committee report required by the SEC to be included in NuScale Corp’s proxy statement and to assist the Board in overseeing and monitoring (1) the quality and integrity of the financial statements, (2) compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, (4) the performance of our internal audit function and (5) the performance of our independent registered public accounting firm.

The audit committee has a written charter that is available on our website. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not a part of this prospectus.

Organization and Compensation Committee

Our Board has an organization and compensation committee consisting of Messrs. Hackett (chair), Boeckmann, Kresa and Panichi.

The purpose of the organization and compensation committee is to assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to (1) setting our compensation program and compensation of its executive officers and directors, (2) monitoring our incentive and equity-based compensation plans and (3) preparing the compensation committee report required to be included in our proxy statements under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Our organization and compensation committee has a written charter that is available on our website. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not a part of this prospectus.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Board has a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting of Messrs. Collins (chair), Boeckmann, Sorrells and Ms. Warnica. The purpose of the nominating and corporate governance committee is to assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to (1) identifying individuals qualified to become new members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, (2) reviewing the qualifications of incumbent directors to determine whether to recommend them for reelection and selecting, or recommending that the Board select, the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders, identifying potential members qualified to fill vacancies on any Board committee and recommending that the Board appoint the identified member or members to the applicable committee, (4) reviewing and recommending to the Board corporate governance principles applicable to NuScale, (5) overseeing the evaluation of the Board and management and (6) handling such other matters that are specifically delegated to the committee by the Board from time to time.

71

Our nominating and corporate governance committee has a written charter that is available on our website. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not a part of this prospectus.

Code of Business Conduct

We have a code of business conduct that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. A copy of the code of conduct is available on our website at www.nuscalepower.com. The code of business conduct is a “code of ethics,” as defined in Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K. Our Internet website address is provided as an inactive textual reference only. We will make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of its code of ethics on our website. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not a part of this prospectus.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of the compensation committee was at any time during fiscal year 2021, or at any other time, one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers has served as a director or member of a compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director on our Board or member of our compensation committee.

Independence of the Board of Directors

The NYSE rules generally require that independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. As a controlled company, we are largely exempt from such requirements. Based upon information requested from and provided by each of our directors concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, we have determined that Kent Kresa, James T. Hackett and Kimberly O. Warnica are “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of the NYSE.

72

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Our compensation policies and philosophies are designed to:

● attract, retain and motivate senior management leaders who are capable of advancing NuScale’s mission and strategy and, ultimately, creating and maintaining its long-term equity value. Such leaders must engage in a collaborative approach and possess the ability to execute its business strategy in an industry characterized by competitiveness and growth;

● reward senior management in a manner aligned with NuScale’s financial performance; and

● align senior management’s interests with equity owners’ long-term interests through equity participation and ownership.

Decisions with respect to the compensation of NuScale Corp’s executive officers, including its named executive officers, are made by the compensation committee of our Board. The terms of each named executive officer’s employment agreement are described below under “— Employment Agreements.”

In addition to base salary and annual bonuses, we expect to use stock-based awards to promote our interests by providing executives with the opportunity to acquire equity interests as an incentive for continuing employment with us and to align their interests with those of our equity holders. Once registration of the equity awards is effective, we expect to issue awards to management and directors with initial vesting starting on May 2, 2022.

We have a Stock Ownership and Anti-Hedging/Pledging Policy that requires non-employee directors and executive officers to acquire and hold sufficient shares of our common stock to meaningfully participate in the risks and rewards of ownership with NuScale Corp stockholders, and that prohibit hedging, pledging and similar transaction that would minimize the risks of stock ownership. Non- employee directors and executive officers are required to acquire and retain the net after-tax shares received as compensation until accumulated holdings have a market value equal to a multiple of their base compensation, as indicated in the table below.

Non-employee directors	5x annual cash retainer
CEO	5x base salary
CFO and CEO Direct Reports	2x base salary

Compensation paid based on performance, including any award under the Long Term Incentive Plan, is subject to a recoupment (“clawback”) policy. In the event of a restatement of incorrect financial results, this policy will enable the Board or the Compensation Committee, if it determines appropriate and subject to applicable laws, to seek reimbursement from award recipients of any portion of an award that would not have been earned based on corrected financial results.

Director Compensation

Non-employee directors of NuScale Corp that are not employed by Fluor receive varying levels of compensation for their services as directors and members of committees of the Board. Compensation for Board service includes an annual $80,000 cash retainer (or stock equivalent), payable quarterly in arrears; an annual cash retainer of $50,000 for the non-Executive Chair of the Board; and a $30,000 cash retainer for the Lead Independent Director.

We also pay additional annual cash retainers, quarterly in arrears, for committee members as follows:

	Member		Additional to Chair
Audit	$	10,000	$	12,500 ($22,500 total)
Compensation	$	7,500	$	8,000 ($15,500 total)
Nominating and Governance	$	5,000	$	6,500 ($11,500 total)

73

In addition to cash compensation, we expect non-employee directors will receive an annual restricted stock unit (“RSU”) award with a grant value equal to $80,000, which we expect will be granted on the date of the annual shareholder meeting and will vest quarterly, so that they are fully vested after one year.

We expect to issue to non-employee directors a one-time inducement RSU award with a grant value equal to $110,000 upon joining the Board. Such one-time inducement RSU award will vest quarterly over a period of three years, with 33% of the total RSU value vesting each year.

We expect to issue one-time inducement grants to James T. Hackett, Kent Kresa, Christopher Sorrells and Kimberly Warnica in 2022, after we register securities under our Long-Term Incentive Plan, which we expect to do as soon as we are eligible to register securities under our Long-Term Incentive Plan on a registration statement on Form S-8. Following his retirement as Executive Chairman of Fluor and the expiration of his current term on the Fluor Board of Directors in May 2022, Alan L. Boeckmann will receive the foregoing compensation as a non-employee director of NuScale Corp, including the one-time inducement.

Executive Compensation

This section provides an overview of our compensation programs, including a description of the material factors necessary to understand the information disclosed in the summary compensation table below, and an overview of compensation arrangements that are effective in 2022. Information is provided for the executive officers of NuScale LLC, our predecessor, in 2021. None of Spring Valley’s executive officers or directors received any cash compensation for services rendered to Spring Valley. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that are based on NuScale’s current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs. Actual compensation programs that NuScale Corp adopts may differ materially from the existing and currently planned programs summarized or referred to in this discussion.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, our named executive officers (“NEOs”) were:

John L. Hopkins — Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and President

Dale Atkinson — Chief Operating Officer and Chief Nuclear Officer

Chris Colbert — Chief Financial Officer & Chief Strategy Officer

We believe that our success is driven by our employees, and that our employees will only be successful if they have leaders who provide strategic vision and direction. To attract talented leaders, we offer a balanced compensation package that includes competitive base pay and incentive compensation that rewards both short and long-term value creation.

Our compensation program includes the following pay delivery components:

● Base pay salary structure that is competitive in the labor markets and industries in which we operate.

● An incentive (cash bonus) program that rewards key employees based on results.

● An equity program that attracts, retains, and motivates longer-term excellence.

● A performance management system that links performance to desired outcomes.

● A job evaluation system that focuses on external cost of labor, with a secondary review of internal equity.

74

Base Pay

For executives, including our NEOs, we target base pay in the third quartile (50th to 75th percent) of base of pay according to industry benchmarking studies with 50^th percent being the midpoint of base compensation in the industry.

Our salary structure consists of pay ranges that group jobs having similar value based on internal and/or external comparisons. Each range is assigned a minimum, midpoint and maximum pay. For any given position the purpose of a pay range is to manage pay within these limits as defined below:

● The minimum reflects the lowest wage an incumbent should receive.

● The midpoint indicates the “going-rate” or the average pay fully qualified incumbents should receive.

● The maximum is the highest wage an incumbent should receive.

Pay ranges are also measured in terms of spread and midpoint differential.

● The spread refers to the width, or the difference, between the minimum pay and the maximum pay of any given grade.

● Midpoint differential is the percentage difference between pay grade midpoints as they progress from the lowest grade to the highest within the structure.

The range spread is designed to compensate for all levels of skills, knowledge, experience and performance within the job. Our range has a minimum and maximum pay built around the market 5^th and 95^th percentile; the midpoint is based on the market 50^th percentile. Movement through the range generally occurs commensurate with our assessment of an employee’s capabilities and performance.

Our salary structures are to be used as a guide for determining appropriate offers to new hires and salary increases for employees. Each position at NuScale has been assigned to a salary grade that identifies the minimum and maximum amounts we will pay for jobs assigned to that grade. Assignment is based on the competitive marketplace as defined by established industry salary surveys. Depending on the type of position, the grade classification for each position is based on the cost of wages in the industry and/or the Portland, Oregon geographic region, with determination dependent on the position, and the market in which we compete for talent. We review market data periodically and make appropriate adjustments made to the structure.

On March 31, 2022, Dale Atkinson, NuScale LLC’s Chief Operating Officer, was awarded a bonus as follows: $684,416.30 in cash payable immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger; and 342,778 Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units (less an amount having a value equal to applicable tax withholding) that was issued immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, converted in the Merger, and is subject to vesting. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—Cash and Equity Award to Dale Atkinson.”

NuScale Professional Incentive Plan

We adopted the NuScale Professional Incentive Plan (the “NuScale Professional Incentive Plan”) on January 1, 2015 to focus senior staff, managers and other personnel designated by our chief executive officer on critical success factors. Under the plan, eligible employees may earn an annual cash bonus equal to a percentage of their base pay if they achieve annual performance goals, which may include company performance measures and individual goals. We set target and maximum incentive payment amounts by job classification. Typically, plan participants are identified in the third quarter; company performance measures are proposed by our chief executive officer and approved by our Compensation Committee, and individual performance measures are proposed by designated managers and approved by our chief executive officer; and goals are fixed in the first quarter.

Legacy NuScale LLC 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and Hopkins UARs

NuScale LLC previously granted equity awards to certain employees, including the NEOs, which were generally subject to vesting based on continued service. Equity awards under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “2011 Plan”), were converted by the Merger into options to purchase Class A Common Stock as set forth in the table below titled “2021 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End.” In addition, the Unit Appreciation Right awarded by NuScale LLC to John L. Hopkins, our chief executive officer (“Hopkins UARs”), were settled for $1,540,000 in cash after the Merger.

Long Term Incentive Plan-Based Compensation.

Our executives, including our NEOs, are eligible for awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan, and non-executives may also be eligible if approved by the Compensation Committee.

We expect the primary component of our NEO’s total compensation will be equity-based compensation to tie total compensation to long-term shareholder value. Accordingly, we expect to award executives sizeable equity-based awards at the time of hire and on a periodic basis.

Initially, we expect to grant 100% time-vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) as our equity-based compensation vehicle. We believe RSUs align the long-term interests of management and shareholders and help efficiently manage overall shareholder dilution from stock awards. RSU grant amounts and vesting, whether for new hire or subsequent grants, will be established by the Compensation Committee after receiving recommendations from the Senior Human Resources Officer and the Chief Executive Officer. We expect that RSUs issued to employees will vest over three years, and that, absent a change in control, vesting will not accelerate as a result of termination of employment. We anticipate that grants in future years may include performance shares and stock options in addition to RSUs.

For new hire grants and grants made in connection with internal promotions, the Senior Human Resources Officer and the Chief Executive Officer, and the Compensation Committee will consider a variety of factors, including prior compensation, compensation that will be forfeited upon joining the Company, the compensation of similarly situated senior executives at NuScale Corp, the executive’s expected level of responsibility and expected contributions to our future success, and the compensation of similarly situated executives at peer companies.

For other periodic grants, the Senior Human Resource Officer and the Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee will consider a variety of factors, included the executive’s level of responsibility, past contributions to performance and expected contributions, and relative compensation of similarly situated leaders both within the company and in the nuclear industry.

Employee Benefits

We provide all of our employees, including our NEOs, broad-based employee benefits that are intended to attract and retain employees while providing them with health and welfare benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance coverage, and the ability for eligible participants to participate in our 401(k) plan.

(2) At December 31, 2021, Mr. Hopkins had a Unit Appreciation Right to acquire units of NuScale LLC. Prior to the closing of the Transactions, the Unit Appreciation Rights were exercised and settled in cash for $1,540,000.

Executive Employment Agreements

The employment agreements for each of Mr. Hopkins and Mr. Atkinson provide that if employment is terminated by us without “cause,” other than in connection with a change of control, the executive will be entitled to severance consisting of (i) a lump sum equal to three years’ base salary plus target bonus; (ii) a pro- rated portion of any annual bonus; (iii) continued medical, dental and vision coverage for up to 18 months; (iv) any equity-based compensation awards, other than performance-based equity awards, that are outstanding will continue to vest as if the executive was still employed; (v) any performance-based equity awards will, to the extent the performance criteria are met, be earned at 100% of target, pro-rated based on the number of months executive worked during the performance period; and (vi) all outstanding retention awards will fully vest. If employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason,” each in connection with a change in control, the executive will be entitled to receive severance consisting of (a) a lump-sum equal to three years’ base salary plus target bonus; (b) if the successor fails to assume the annual incentive plan, a pro-rated portion of any annual bonus; (c) continued medical, dental and vision coverage for up to 18 months; (d) reimbursement of outplacement services expenses incurred in the 12 months following termination up to $25,000; (e) the full vesting of any retention awards; and (f) the full vesting of all equity awards other than performance-based awards and, with respect to performance-based awards, vesting at 100% of target.

In each employment agreement, (1) “cause” is defined as commission of any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude or dishonesty; participation in a fraud against NuScale Corp or any of its affiliates; willful and material breach of the executive’s duties that has not been cured within 30 days after written notice from NuScale Corp of such breach; intentional and material damage to NuScale Corp’s or any of its affiliates’ property; material violation of any policy of NuScale Corp or any of its affiliates or material breach by the executive of his Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement with NuScale Corp; and (2) “good reason” is defined as a material diminution of executive’s aggregate compensation, including, without limitation, base salary, annual bonus opportunity, and equity incentive compensation opportunities (other than a base salary, annual bonus opportunity, or equity compensation opportunity reduction of not more than 20% applicable to all similarly situated employees); a material diminution of executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities; or any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by NuScale Corp of the agreement under which the executive provides services (e.g., failure of successor to assume the employment agreement or breach of same).

NuScale Corp’s obligation to make the severance payments, and the executive’s right to retain the payments, is wholly conditioned on the executive providing a general release of claims in favor of NuScale Corp and continuing to comply with his obligations under the employment agreement, including the restrictive covenants. The employment agreements each contain (i) a perpetual confidentiality covenant; (ii) non- competition and non-solicitation of business

78

partners covenants during the course of employment and for one year thereafter; (iii) a non-solicitation covenant with respect to employees and other service providers during the course of employment and for twelve months thereafter; and (iv) a non-disparagement obligation.

The employment agreements also provide that, regardless of whether the executive’s employment is terminated, if there is a change in control and (i) if the successor does not assume NuScale Corp’s annual incentive plan, the annual bonus will be paid in the amount of the target bonus; (ii) if the successor does not assume any outstanding retention awards, then such awards will become immediately fully vested; (iii) if the successor does not assume the equity compensation plan in which the executive participates or grant comparable awards in substitution of the outstanding awards under any such plan, then any outstanding equity-based compensation awards granted to the executive under such plan, other than performance-based equity awards, will become immediately fully vested, and any performance-based equity awards will immediately vest assuming target performance.

NuScale Corp’s executive severance policy for its executives who do not have employment agreements, including our other NEO, provides that if employment is terminated by us without “cause,” the executive will be entitled to severance consisting of a lump sum equal to one year’s base salary plus target bonus; (ii) continued medical, dental and vision coverage for up to one year; and (iii) the vesting of all equity awards other than performance-based awards as and if provided in the award agreements and, with respect to performance-based awards, and other awards subject to further vesting, such unvested awards will be terminated. “Cause” in the policy has the same meaning as in the employment agreements described above. NuScale Corp’s obligation to make the severance payments is wholly conditioned on the executive providing a general release of claims in favor of NuScale Corp.

NuScale Corp has change of control and indemnity agreements with its executive officers who do not have employment agreements, including the other NEO. If the executive’s employment is terminated within two years following a change of control by us without “cause,” or by the executive for “good reason” the executive will be entitled to severance consisting of (i) a lump sum equal to one or one and a half times the executive’s base salary plus target bonus; (ii) a prorated annual bonus; (iii) continued medical, dental and vision coverage for up to one year; (iv) reimbursement of outplacement services expenses incurred in the 12 months following termination up to $25,000; and (v) the full vesting of all equity awards other than performance-based awards and, with respect to performance-based awards, vesting based on 100% of target. “Cause” and “good reason” in these agreements have the same meanings as in the employment agreements described above. A change of control includes a person or group holding more than 25% of either (1) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of NuScale Corp or (2) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of NuScale Corp entitled to vote generally in the election of our Board.

Our obligation to make the severance payments, and the executive’s right to retain the payments, is conditioned on the executive providing a general release of claims in favor of NuScale and continuing to comply with his or her obligations under the employment agreement, including the restrictive covenants. The employment agreements each contain (i) a perpetual confidentiality covenant; (ii) non- competition and non-solicitation of business partners covenants during the course of employment; (iii) a non- solicitation covenant with respect to employees and other service providers during the course of employment and for twelve months thereafter; and (iv) a non-disparagement obligation.

The change of control and indemnity agreements also provide that, regardless of whether the executive’s employment is terminated, if there is a change in control and (i) if the successor does not assume NuScale annual incentive plan, the annual bonus will be paid in the amount of the target bonus; (ii) if the successor does not assume any outstanding retention awards, then such awards will become immediately fully vested; (iii) if the successor does not assume the equity compensation plan in which the executive participates or grant comparable awards in substitution of the outstanding awards under any such plan, then any outstanding equity-based compensation awards granted to executive under such plan, other than performance-based equity awards, will become immediately fully vested, and any performance-based equity awards will immediately vest assuming target performance.

The employment agreements and the change of control and indemnification agreements provide that, if payments to the executive pursuant to the agreement (when considered with all other payments made to the executive as a result of a change in control that are subject to section 280G of the Code) (the amount of all such payments, collectively, the “Parachute Payment”) results in the executive becoming liable for the payment of any excise taxes pursuant to section

79

4999 of the Code, together with any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (“280G Excise Tax”), then NuScale will automatically reduce (the “Reduction”) the executive’s Parachute Payment to the minimum extent necessary to prevent the Parachute Payment (after the Reduction) from being subject to the Excise Tax, but only if, by reason of the Reduction, the after-tax benefit of the reduced Parachute Payment exceeds the after-tax benefit if such Reduction were not made. If the after-tax benefit of the reduced Parachute Payment does not exceed the after-tax benefit if the Parachute Payment is not reduced, then the Reduction will not apply. If the Reduction is applicable, the Parachute Payment will be reduced in such a manner that provides the executive with the best economic benefit and, to the extent any portions of the Parachute Payment are economically equivalent with each other, each will be reduced pro rata.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time of 8,900,000 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock and an aggregate of 209,870,307 shares of our Class A Common Stock. The selling securityholders may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the shares of Class A Common Stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. When we refer to the “selling securityholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors, designees, and others who later come to hold any of the selling securityholders’ interest in the Class A Common Stock other than through a public sale (including a sale pursuant to Rule 144). Such selling securityholders may currently hold shares of our Class A Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, or may receive shares of Class A Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part upon exchange of NuScale Class B Units for NuScale Class A Common Stock, or upon exercise of a NuScale Corp. Private Placement Warrant.

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, (i) the names of the selling securityholders, (ii) the number of NuScale LLC Class B Units held by such selling securityholders, if any, before the exchange of such NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock (and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock), (iii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants held by such selling securityholders prior to any exchange by them of NuScale LLC Class B Units (and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock), (iv) the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that will be owned by such selling securityholders after the exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units held by them (and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock) and the exercise of NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants, and (v) the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that will be owned by such selling securityholders following the sale of shares in this offering. The percentage ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock is based on an aggregate of 222,012,015 shares of NuScale Class A Common Stock (including 1,643,924 Sponsor Earn Out Shares) and NuScale Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date.

For purposes of the table below, we have assumed that the selling securityholders will not acquire beneficial ownership of any additional securities during the offering. The following table is prepared based on information provided to us by the selling securityholders. In addition, we assume that the selling securityholders have not sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, our securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Any changed or new information given to us by the selling securityholders, including regarding the identity of, and the securities held by, each selling securityholder, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, if and when necessary.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Beneficial ownership generally includes voting or investment power over securities. Except in cases where community property laws apply or as indicated in the footnotes to this table, we believe that each selling securityholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over the shares of Class A Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by the selling securityholder. The information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, the persons and entities named in the tables have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all securities that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Spring Valley Related Person Transactions

Administrative Services Agreement

Spring Valley entered into an agreement that provides that, commencing on the date that Spring Valley’s securities were first listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market through the earlier of consummation of the initial business combination and the liquidation, Spring Valley may pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to Spring Valley.

In addition, the Sponsor, officers and directors, and their respective affiliates were reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Spring Valley’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations.

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 8,900,000 Spring Valley Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Spring Valley Private Placement Warrant in a private placement, generating gross proceeds of $8,900,000.

Tax Receivable Agreement

NuScale LLC and each of its direct or indirect (through subsidiaries that are classified as partnerships or disregarded entities for United States federal income tax purposes) Subsidiaries that are classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes have made or will make an election under Section 754 of the Code for the taxable year in which the Closing occurs, and such election will remain in effect for any future taxable year in which an exchange of NuScale LLC Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement occurs. Such elections are expected to result in increases to the tax basis of the assets of NuScale LLC at the time of any future exchange of NuScale LLC Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement. Such increases in the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of NuScale LLC, as well as other tax benefits, may reduce the amount of tax that NuScale Corp would otherwise be required to pay in the future. Such increases in tax basis and other tax benefits may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. The IRS may challenge all or part of the tax basis increase, other tax benefits, and associated increased deductions, and a court could sustain such a challenge.

In connection with the Closing, NuScale Corp entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement with NuScale LLC, each of the TRA Holders (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) party thereto, and Fluor, in its capacity as TRA

91

Representative (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement). Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, NuScale Corp must pay 85% of the net cash tax savings from certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis and other tax benefits resulting from any exchange by the TRA Holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock or cash in the future. NuScale Corp’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement accelerate upon a change in control and certain other termination events, as defined therein.

NuScale Corp will benefit from the remaining 15% of cash tax savings, if any, that NuScale Corp realizes as a result of such tax benefits. For purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement, the cash tax savings will be computed by comparing NuScale Corp’s actual income tax liability to the amount of such taxes that NuScale Corp would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of its assets as a result of the Business Combination or the exchanges and had NuScale Corp not entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement (calculated by making certain assumptions).

The term of the Tax Receivable Agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired, unless NuScale Corp exercises its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement for an amount based on the present value of the agreed payments remaining to be made under the agreement (as described in more detail below), there is a change of control (as described in more detail below) or NuScale Corp breaches any of its material obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, in which case all obligations will generally be accelerated and due as if NuScale Corp had exercised its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement. Estimating the amount of payments that may be made under the Tax Receivable Agreement is by its nature imprecise, as the calculation depends on a variety of factors. The actual increase in tax basis of the assets of NuScale LLC, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including:

● the timing of exchanges of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement — for instance, the increase in any tax deductions will vary depending on the fair value, which may fluctuate over time, of the relevant NuScale LLC Class B Units at the time of each exchange;

● the price of Class A Common Stock at the time of the exchange — the increase in any tax deductions, as well as the tax basis increase in other assets or other tax benefits, is proportional to the price of Class A Common Stock at the time of the exchange;

● the extent to which such exchanges are taxable — if an exchange is not taxable for any reason, an increase in the tax basis of the assets of NuScale LLC (and thus increased deductions) may not be available as a result of such exchange; and

● the amount and timing of our income — we will be required to pay 85% of the cash tax savings, if any, as and when realized.

If NuScale Corp does not have taxable income (determined without regard to the tax basis and other tax benefits that are subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement), NuScale Corp will generally not be required (absent a change of control or other circumstances requiring an early termination payment) to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for that taxable year because no cash tax savings will have been actually realized. However, any cash tax savings that do not result in realized benefits in a given tax year may generate tax attributes that may be utilized to generate benefits in future tax years. The utilization of such tax attributes will result in payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

Future payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in respect of subsequent exchanges of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of NuScale LLC Class A Common Stock under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement to be substantial. It is possible that future transactions or events could increase or decrease the actual cash tax savings realized and the corresponding payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. There may be a material negative effect on NuScale Corp’s liquidity if, as a result of timing discrepancies or otherwise, the payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement exceed the actual cash tax savings we realize in respect of the tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement and/or distributions to NuScale Corp by NuScale LLC are not sufficient to permit NuScale Corp to make payments

92

under the Tax Receivable Agreement after NuScale Corp has paid its taxes. The payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement are not conditioned upon the TRA Holders’ continued ownership of NuScale Corp or NuScale LLC.

In addition, the Tax Receivable Agreement provides that upon a change of control, NuScale Corp’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will accelerate as if NuScale Corp had exercised its early termination right based on certain assumptions (as described below), including that NuScale Corp would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions and tax basis and other benefits related to the Tax Receivable Agreement.

Furthermore, NuScale Corp may elect to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement early by making an immediate payment equal to the present value of the anticipated future cash tax savings. In determining such anticipated future cash tax savings, the Tax Receivable Agreement includes several assumptions, including (1) that any NuScale LLC Class B Units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the market value of Class A Common Stock and the amount of cash that would have been transferred if the exchange had occurred at the time of termination, (2) NuScale Corp will have sufficient taxable income in each future taxable year to fully utilize all relevant tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement, (3) the tax rates for future years will be those specified in the law as in effect at the time of termination, and (4) certain non-amortizable, non-deductible assets are deemed disposed of within specified time periods. In addition, the present value of such anticipated future cash tax savings are discounted at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) 6.5% and (ii) LIBOR plus 400 basis points.

As a result of either an early termination or a change of control, NuScale Corp could be required to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement that exceed our actual cash tax savings. Consequently, our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement could have a substantial negative impact on our liquidity and could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control. There can be no assurance that we will be able to finance our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

Finally, because NuScale Corp is a holding company with no operations of its own, its ability to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement depends on the ability of NuScale LLC to make distributions to it. To the extent that NuScale Corp is unable to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid, which could negatively impact NuScale Corp’s results of operations and could also affect its liquidity in periods in which such payments are made.

NuScale Corp will also maintain a general liability insurance policy, which covers certain liabilities of its directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

Registration Rights Agreement

NuScale Corp, the Sponsor, the Sponsor Sub, the former independent directors of Spring Valley and certain of Spring Valley and NuScale LLC holders entered into the Registration Rights Agreement covering approximately 193.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor and other holders party thereto have certain registration rights, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein.

In particular, the Registration Rights Agreement provides for the following registration rights:

● Demand registration rights.

● Piggyback registration rights.

Certain Legacy NuScale Equityholders have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to (a) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, any shares of Class A Common Stock held by them immediately after the Effective Time, or issuable upon the exercise of options to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock held by them immediately after the Effective Time, or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Common Stock held by them immediately after the Effective Time (the “Lock-up Shares”), (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-up Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise or (c) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (a) or (b) until 180 days after the Closing Date.

A&R NuScale LLC Agreement

Concurrent with the Closing, the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of NuScale LLC was amended and restated in its entirety. In its capacity as the manager of NuScale LLC, NuScale Corp controls all of NuScale LLC’s business and affairs. Any time NuScale Corp issues a share of Class A Common Stock for cash, the net proceeds received by NuScale Corp will be promptly used to acquire a NuScale LLC Class A Unit unless used to settle an exchange of a NuScale LLC Class B Unit for cash. Any time NuScale Corp issues a share of Class A Common Stock upon an exchange of a NuScale LLC Class B Unit or settles such an exchange for cash, as described below, NuScale Corp will contribute the exchanged unit to NuScale LLC and NuScale LLC will issue to NuScale Corp a NuScale LLC Class A Unit. If NuScale Corp issues other classes or series of equity securities, NuScale LLC will issue to NuScale Corp an equal amount of equity securities of NuScale LLC with designations, preferences and other rights and terms that are substantially the same as NuScale Corp’s newly issued equity securities. If NuScale Corp repurchases, redeems or retires any shares of Class A Common Stock (or equity securities of other classes or series), NuScale LLC will, immediately prior to such repurchase, redemption or retirement, repurchase, redeem or retire an equal number of NuScale LLC Class A Units (or its equity securities of the corresponding classes or series) held by NuScale Corp, upon the same terms and for the same consideration, as the shares of Class A Common Stock (or equity securities of such

95

other classes or series) are repurchased, redeemed or retired. In addition, membership units of NuScale LLC, as well as Common Stock, are subject to equivalent stock splits, dividends, reclassifications and other subdivisions. In the event NuScale Corp acquires NuScale LLC Class A Units without issuing a corresponding number of shares of Class A Common Stock, it will make appropriate adjustments to the exchange ratio of NuScale LLC Class B Units to Class A Common Stock.

NuScale Corp will have the right to determine when distributions will be made to holders of units and the amount of any such distributions, other than with respect to tax distributions as described below. If a distribution is authorized, except as described below, such distribution will be made to the holders of NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of units held by such holder.

The holders of units, including NuScale Corp, will incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their proportionate share of any taxable income of NuScale LLC. Net profits and net losses of NuScale LLC will generally be allocated to holders of units (including NuScale Corp) on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of units held by such holder; however, under applicable tax rules, NuScale LLC will be required to allocate net taxable income disproportionately to its members in certain circumstances. The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement provides for quarterly cash distributions, which we refer to as “tax distributions,” to the holders of the units generally equal to the taxable income allocated to each holder of units (with certain adjustments) multiplied by an assumed tax rate. Generally, these tax distributions will be computed based on our estimate of the net taxable income of NuScale LLC allocable per unit (based on the member which is allocated the largest amount of taxable income on a per unit basis) multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest combined U.S. federal and applicable state and local tax rate applicable to any natural person residing in, or corporation doing business in, Portland, Oregon, San Francisco, California or New York, New York (whichever results in the application of the highest state and local tax rate for a given type of income) that is taxable on that income (taking into account certain other assumptions, and subject to adjustment to the extent that state and local taxes are deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes). The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement generally requires tax distributions to be pro rata based on the ownership of NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units. However, if the amount of tax distributions to be made exceeds the amount of funds available for distribution, NuScale Corp shall receive a tax distribution, before the other members receive any distribution and the balance, if any, of funds available for distribution shall be distributed first to the other members pro rata in accordance with their assumed tax liabilities, and then to all members (including NuScale Corp) pro rata until each member receives the full amount of its tax distribution using the individual tax rate. NuScale LLC will also make non-pro rata payments to NuScale Corp to reimburse it for corporate and other overhead expenses (which payments from NuScale LLC are not to be treated as distributions under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no distribution will be made pursuant to the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement to any unitholder if such distribution would violate applicable law or result in NuScale LLC or any of its subsidiaries being in default under any material agreement.

The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement provides that it may generally be amended, supplemented, waived or modified by NuScale Corp in its sole discretion without the approval of any other holder of units, except in the case of amendments that would modify the limited liability of a member or increase the obligation of a member to make capital contributions, adversely affect the right of a member to receive distributions or cause NuScale LLC to be treated as a corporation for tax purposes.

The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement also entitles members to exchange their NuScale LLC Class B Units, together with the cancellation for no consideration of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock, for shares of NuScale Corp’s Class A Common Stock on a one-for- one basis or, at NuScale Corp’s election in its sole discretion, subject to certain restrictions, for cash. The exchange ratio is subject to appropriate adjustment by NuScale Corp in the event NuScale LLC Class A Units are issued to NuScale Corp without issuance of a corresponding number of shares of Class A Common Stock or in the event of certain reclassifications, reorganizations, recapitalizations or similar transactions.

The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement permits the NuScale LLC Class B unitholders to exercise their exchange rights subject to an exchange policy containing certain timing procedures and other conditions. The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement provides that an owner will not have the right to exchange NuScale LLC Class B Units if we determine that such exchange would be prohibited by law or regulation or would violate other agreements with NuScale Corp, NuScale

96

LLC or any of their subsidiaries to which NuScale LLC unitholder is subject. We intend to impose additional restrictions on exchanges that we determine to be necessary or advisable so that NuScale LLC is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The A&R NuScale LLC Agreement also provides for mandatory exchanges under certain circumstances, including at the option of NuScale LLC, if the number of NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units outstanding and held by its members (other than those held by NuScale Corp) is less than 15% of the outstanding NuScale LLC Class A Units and NuScale LLC Class B Units or in the discretion of NuScale Corp, with the consent of holders of at least 50% of the outstanding NuScale LLC Common Units.

Unit Repurchases to Cover Tax Withholding Obligations

Pre-Existing NuScale Options granted in 2012 under the NuScale LLC 2011 Equity Incentive Plan began to expire in February 2022. The Board of Managers of NuScale LLC authorized NuScale LLC (a) to allow current employees holding Pre-Existing NuScale Options that expired on or prior to March 23, 2022 to elect (in lieu of paying cash) to transfer to NuScale LLC existing Common Units with a value equal to the applicable employment and income tax withholding in connection with the exercise of the Pre-Existing NuScale Options and (b) to allow current employees holding Pre-Existing NuScale Options that are scheduled to expire between March 24, 2022 and the date on which NuScale Corp first has an effective Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC with respect to Pre-Existing NuScale Options to “net exercise” such Pre-Existing NuScale Options by making an election (in lieu of paying cash) for NuScale LLC to retain a number of option securities with a value equal to the applicable employment and income tax withholding in connection with the exercise of the Pre-Existing NuScale Option and issue the remaining option securities to the option holder.

On March 26, 2022, family members of Christopher Colbert, NuScale LLC’s Chief Financial Officer, elected to transfer a total of 167,593 Pre-Existing NuScale LLC Common Units, with an aggregate value of $276,528.45, to NuScale LLC to cover the employment and income tax withholding payable by NuScale LLC in connection with their previous exercises of expiring Pre-Existing NuScale Options in 2022.

Cash and Equity Award to Dale Atkinson

On March 31, 2022, the NuScale LLC Board of Managers authorized, and NuScale LLC agreed to provide, a cash bonus of $684,416.30 to Dale Atkinson, NuScale LLC’s Chief Operating Officer, which become payable as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, and an award of 342,778 Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units to Mr. Atkinson, subject to reduction by the number of Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units having a value equal to the tax withholding amount otherwise attributable to the issuance of the Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units. The Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units were issued to Mr. Atkinson immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger. The Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units issued to Mr. Atkinson (and the NuScale LLC Class B Units into which such Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units were converted in the Merger and any shares of Class A Common Stock for which such NuScale LLC Class B Units may be exchanged in accordance with the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement) will vest on the earlier of (a) the one year anniversary of the issuance date, (b) the effective date of Mr. Atkinson’s retirement, so long as such date is on or after January 1, 2023, or (c) the date of Mr. Atkinson’s death. If Mr. Atkinson’s employment by NuScale LLC or any of its affiliates (including, after the Effective Time of the Merger, NuScale Corp) ceases for any reason (other than Mr. Atkinson’s death), or for no reason, with or without cause, prior to the vesting date, all of the Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units issued to Mr. Atkinson (and the NuScale LLC Class B Units into which such Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units were converted in the Merger and any shares of Class A Common Stock for which such NuScale LLC Class B Units may be exchanged in accordance with the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement) will be forfeited immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefore and Mr. Atkinson will have no further right, title or interest in and to such Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units (or the NuScale LLC Class B Units into which such Pre-Existing NuScale Common Units were converted in the Merger or any shares of Class A Common Stock for which such NuScale LLC Class B Units may be exchanged in accordance with the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement).

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions

NuScale Corp has adopted a written related person transaction policy that sets forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions.

A “Related Person Transaction” is defined (consistent with SEC and NYSE listing standards) as a transaction, arrangement or relationship in which NuScale Corp or any of its subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to NuScale Corp or any of its subsidiaries as an employee or director will be pre-approved under this policy as long as such arrangements meet certain requirements specified in the policy. A “Related Person” means:

● any person who is, or at any time during the applicable period was, one of NuScale Corp’s executive officers or one of NuScale Corp’s directors or a nominee for director;

● any person who is the beneficial owner of more than five percent of any class or series of its voting stock; and

● any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law of a director, executive officer or a beneficial owner of more than five percent of its voting stock, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer or beneficial owner of more than five percent of its voting stock.

NuScale Corp has policies and procedures designed to minimize potential conflicts of interest arising from any dealings it may have with its affiliates and to provide appropriate procedures for the disclosure of any real or potential conflicts of interest that may exist from time to time. Specifically, pursuant to its charter, the audit committee will have the responsibility to review related person transactions.

Under the related person transaction policy, the related person in question (or if the related person is an immediate family member of a director or executive officer, the director or executive officer) will be required to present information regarding the proposed related person transaction to NuScale Corp’s Chief Compliance Officer. The Chief Compliance Officer, in consultation with the General Counsel, will evaluate the information and if the Chief Compliance Officer determines that the proposed transaction would constitute a related person transaction, the Chief Compliance Officer will report the Related Person Transaction and provide a summary of all material facts to the audit committee for review. To identify related person transactions in advance, NuScale Corp expects to rely on information supplied by its executive officers, directors and certain significant stockholders. In considering related person transactions, NuScale Corp’s audit committee is expected to take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances, which may include, but are not limited to:

● the related person’s interest in the transaction;

● the approximate dollar value of the amount involved in the transaction, particularly as it relates to the related person;

● whether the transaction was initiated by NuScale Corp or the related person;

● whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business of NuScale Corp;

● whether the transaction with the related person is proposed to be, or was, entered into on terms no less favorable to NuScale Corp than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party;

● the purpose of, and the potential benefits to NuScale Corp of, the transaction; and

● any other information regarding the transaction or the related person that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances of the particular transaction.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following summary of certain provisions of NuScale Corp’s capital stock and the Class B Units of NuScale LLC does not purport to be complete and is subject to the Charter, the Bylaws, the Registration Rights Agreement, the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, our warrant agreement and the provisions of applicable law.

Authorized Capitalization

General

Our Charter authorizes the issuance of 512,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of NuScale Corp, consisting of:

● 332,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock;

● 179,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock; and

● 1,000,000 shares of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock.

The following summary describes all material provisions of our capital stock. We urge you to read the Charter, the Bylaws and the Registration Rights Agreement.

Common Stock

Class A Common Stock

At May 3, 2022, we had 43,615,304 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding.

Voting rights. Each holder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Class A Common Stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. The holders of Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters (or, if any holders of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with the holders of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock); provided, that the holders of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to vote separately upon any amendment to the Charter (including by merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event) that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Class A Common Stock in a manner that is disproportionately adverse compared to the Class B Common Stock.

Subject to the rights of the holders of any one or more series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock then outstanding, the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock may be increased or decreased by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of NuScale Corp entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock voting separately as a class will be required therefor; provided, that the number of authorized shares of any particular class may not be decreased below the number of shares of such class then outstanding, plus the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable in connection with (x) the exchange of all outstanding NuScale LLC Class B Units, and the cancellation of all Class B Common Stock, pursuant to the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement and (y) the exercise of outstanding options, warrants, exchange rights, conversion rights or similar rights for Class A Common Stock.

Holders of Class A Common Stock do not have the ability to cumulate votes for the election of directors. The Charter does not require the election of the directors to be by written ballot.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the Charter, holders of shares of Class A Common Stock, as such, will have no voting power with respect to, and will not be entitled to vote on, any

99

amendment to the Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of any outstanding NuScale Corp Preferred Stock if the holders of such NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are entitled to vote as a separate class thereon under our Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.

Dividend Rights. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock or any class or series of stock having a preference senior to or the right to participate with the Class A Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends, such dividends and other distributions of cash, stock or property may be declared and paid on the Class A Common Stock out of the assets of the Corporation that are by law available therefor, at the times and in the amounts as the Board in its discretion may determine.

Rights upon liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of NuScale Corp, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of NuScale Corp and of the preferential and other amounts, if any, to which the holders of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are entitled, if any, the holders of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive, pari passu, an amount per share equal to the par value thereof, and thereafter the holders of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive the remaining assets of NuScale Corp available for distribution ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock.

Other rights. Except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement (as applicable), the holders of Class A Common Stock will have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There will be no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Class A Common Stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Class A Common Stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of the NuScale Corp Preferred Stock that NuScale Corp may issue in the future and to the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable.

Subject to the transfer and exchange restrictions set forth in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units may exchange them for shares of Class A Common Stock (or cash), subject to certain restrictions.

Class B Common Stock

As of May 3, 2022, we had 178,396,711 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding. These shares have no economic rights, and entitle the holder only to cast one vote per share on matters submitted to the stockholders of NuScale Corp. Each share of Class B Common Stock is paired with one NuScale LLC Class B Unit. The voting rights of the Class B Common Stock is intended to be identical to the voting rights of the Class A Common Stock.

Voting Rights. Each holder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. The holders of Common Stock vote together as a single class on all matters (or, if any holders of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with the holders of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock); provided, that the holders of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote separately on any amendment to the Charter (including by merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event) that would alter or change the rights of the Class B Common Stock in a manner that is disproportionately adverse compared to the Class A Common Stock.

Subject to the rights of the holders of any one or more series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock then outstanding, the number of authorized shares of Class B Common Stock may be increased or decreased by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of NuScale Corp entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class B Common Stock voting separately as a class will be required therefor.

Holders of Class B Common Stock do not have the ability to cumulate votes for the election of directors. Our Charter does not require the election of the directors to be by written ballot.

100

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to our Charter, holders of shares of Class B Common Stock, as such, will have no voting power with respect to, and will not be entitled to vote on, any amendment to the Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of any outstanding NuScale Corp Preferred Stock if the holders of such NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are entitled to vote as a separate class thereon under the Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.

Dividend Rights. Except in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of NuScale Corp, dividends of cash or property may not be declared or paid on shares of Class B Common Stock, and then, only to the extent of the par value thereof.

Rights upon liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of NuScale Corp, holders of shares of Class B Common Stock will not be entitled to receive, with respect to such shares, any assets of NuScale Corp in excess of the par value thereof.

Other rights. To the extent NuScale LLC Class B Units are issued pursuant to the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement to anyone other than NuScale Corp or a wholly owned subsidiary of NuScale Corp, an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock (subject to adjustment as set forth herein) shall be issued to the same Person to which such NuScale LLC Class B Units are issued at par.

Conversion and Retirement of Class B Common Stock. Subject to the transfer and exchange restrictions set forth in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement and the Merger Agreement, holders of NuScale LLC Class B Units may exchange such units, together with the cancelation for no consideration of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock, for shares of Class A Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no holder of Class B Common Stock may transfer shares of Class B Common Stock to any person unless such holder transfers a corresponding number of NuScale LLC Class B Units to the same person in accordance with the provisions of the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement. If any outstanding share of Class B Common Stock ceases to be held by a holder of a corresponding NuScale LLC Class B Unit, such share shall automatically and without further action on the part of NuScale Corp or any holder of Class B Common Stock be transferred to NuScale Corp for no consideration and retired.

Preferred Stock

No shares of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock are currently issued or outstanding. Our Charter authorizes the Board to establish one or more series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock in one or more classes or series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, the right to elect directors, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, or the designation of the class or series, without the approval of our stockholders; provided, that the aggregate number of shares issued and not retired of any and all such series shall not exceed the total number of shares of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock authorized by our Charter, i.e., 1,000,000 shares of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock.

The authority of the Board to issue NuScale Corp Preferred Stock without approval of our stockholders may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock. The issuance of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our Common Stock, including the loss of voting control to others. As a result of these or other factors, the issuance of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock could have an adverse impact on the market price of the Class A Common Stock. At present, we have no plans to issue any NuScale Corp Preferred Stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Delaware Law and our Organizational Documents

Certain provisions of our Organizational Documents could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the Board and in the policies formulated by the Board and to discourage certain types of

101

transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal or proxy fight. Such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market price of Class A Common Stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management or delaying or preventing a transaction that might benefit you or other minority stockholders.

These provisions include:

Action by Written Consent; Special Meetings of Stockholders. The DGCL permits stockholder action by written consent unless otherwise provided by our Charter. Our Charter permits stockholder action by written consent until such time as NuScale Corp is no longer a “Controlled Company” pursuant to Section 303A.00 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Our Organizational Documents provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called only (i) by the chairperson of the Board, (ii) by our chief executive officer, (iii) at the direction of the Board pursuant to a written resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of directors that NuScale Corp would have if there were no vacancies, or, (iv) until such time as the NuScale Corp is no longer a “Controlled Company” pursuant to Section 303A.00 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, pursuant to a written resolution adopted by holders of a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the NuScale Corp entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class; provided, that only proposals included in our notice may be considered at such special meetings.

Election and Removal of Directors. The DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless our Charter provides otherwise. Our Charter disallows cumulative voting. Any directors or the entire Board may be removed at any time, but only for cause, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of NuScale Corp entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. In addition, the certificate of designation pursuant to which a particular series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock is issued may provide holders of that series of NuScale Corp Preferred Stock with the right to elect additional directors. These provisions could delay a successful tender offeror from obtaining majority control of the Board, and the prospect of that delay might deter a potential offeror.

Authorized but Unissued Shares. Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of the NYSE, which would apply if and so long as the Class A Common Stock (or warrants) remains listed on the NYSE, require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the then-outstanding voting power or then- outstanding number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Additional shares that may be issued in the future may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital or to facilitate acquisitions. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock and NuScale Corp Preferred Stock could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise and thereby protect the continuity of NuScale Corp management and possibly deprive stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of Class A Common Stock at prices higher than prevailing market prices. See “—Preferred Stock.”

Business Combinations with Interested Stockholders. In general, Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti- takeover law, prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock, which person or group is considered an interested stockholder under the DGCL, for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder, unless (with certain exceptions) the business combination or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder is approved in a prescribed manner.

Other Limitations on Stockholder Actions. Our Bylaws also impose procedural requirements on stockholders who wish to:

● make nominations in the election of directors;

● propose that a director be removed; or

102

● propose any other business to be brought before an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Under these procedural requirements, in order to bring a proposal before a meeting of stockholders, a stockholder must deliver timely notice of a proposal pertaining to a proper subject for presentation at the meeting to our corporate secretary containing, among other things, the following:

● the stockholder’s name and address;

● the number of shares beneficially owned by the stockholder and evidence of such ownership;

● the names of all persons with whom the stockholder is acting in concert and a description of all arrangements and understandings with those persons;

● a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding reached with respect to shares of our stock, such as borrowed or loaned shares, short positions, hedging or similar transactions;

● a description of the business or nomination to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; and

● any material interest of the stockholder in such business.

Our Bylaws set out the timeliness requirements for delivery of notice.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our Organizational Documents provide indemnification for our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law. In addition, as permitted by Delaware law, our Charter includes provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the rights of our stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duties as a director.

These provisions may be held to be not enforceable for violations of the federal securities laws of the United States.

Exclusive Forum

The Charter provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (i) the sole and exclusive forum for any complaint asserting any internal corporate claims (as defined below), to the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, shall be the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have, or declines to accept, jurisdiction, another state court or a federal court located within the State of Delaware); and (ii) the sole and exclusive forum for any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be the federal district courts of the United States of America; provided, that the Charter’s forum selection provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act. For purposes of the Charter’s forum selection provision, “internal corporate claims” means claims, including claims in the right of NuScale Corp that are based upon a violation of a duty by a current or former director, officer, employee or stockholder in such capacity, or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction upon the Court of Chancery. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any shares of NuScale Corp’s capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in the Charter. However, it is possible that a court could find NuScale Corp’s forum selection provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Although the Company believes this provision benefits it by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against the Company’s directors, officers and other employees.

Stockholder Registration Rights

The Registration Rights Agreement provides certain Legacy NuScale Equityholders and the Sponsor and its affiliates with certain registration rights whereby, in certain circumstances, subject to certain lockup restrictions and the other terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, they have the right to require us to register under the Securities Act certain Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). The Registration Rights Agreement will also provide for “piggyback” registration rights for certain other parties thereto, subject to certain conditions and exceptions. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions — Registration Rights Agreement.”

Warrants

NuScale Corp Warrants. Each whole NuScale Corp Warrant will entitle the registered holder to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of one year from the closing of Spring Valley’s Initial Public Offering (which occurred on November 27, 2020) and 30 days after the completion of the Transactions, except as discussed in the immediately succeeding paragraph. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its NuScale Corp Warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock. This means only a whole NuScale Corp Warrant may be exercised at a given time by a warrant holder. No fractional NuScale Corp Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole NuScale Corp Warrants will trade. Accordingly, unless you hold at least two Units, you will not be able to receive or trade a whole NuScale Corp Warrant. The NuScale Corp Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Transactions, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

We will not be obligated to issue any shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A Common Stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No NuScale Corp Warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue a share of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant unless the share of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the NuScale Corp Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a NuScale Corp Warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any NuScale Corp Warrant.

We have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the Closing, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants, and we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the Closing, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Common Stock until the NuScale Corp Warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided, that if our shares of Class A Common Stock are at the time of any exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of NuScale Corp Warrants who exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but we will use our commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the Closing, holders of NuScale Corp Warrants may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but we will use our commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In the case of a cashless exercise, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the NuScale Corp Warrants for that number

104

of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the NuScale Corp Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) less the exercise price of the NuScale Corp Warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361 per warrant. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average price of the Class A Common Stock for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent.

Redemption of NuScale Corp Warrants when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00.

Once the NuScale Corp Warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding NuScale Corp Warrants (except as described herein with respect to the NuScale Corp Private Warrants):

● in whole and not in part;

● at a price of $0.01 per NuScale Corp Warrant;

● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each holder of NuScale Corp Warrants; and

● if, and only if, the closing price of the equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a NuScale Corp Warrant as described under the heading “— Warrants — NuScale Corp Warrants — Anti-dilution Adjustments”) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before we send the notice of redemption to the NuScale Corp Warrant holders.

We will not redeem the NuScale Corp Warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class A Common Stock is available throughout the 30-day redemption period. If and when the NuScale Corp Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

We have established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the NuScale Corp Warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the NuScale Corp Warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the shares of Class A Common Stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a NuScale Corp Warrant as described under the heading “— Warrants — NuScale Corp Warrants — Anti-dilution Adjustments”) as well as the $11.50 (for whole shares) NuScale Corp Warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

Redemption of NuScale Corp Warrant when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00.

Once the NuScale Corp Warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding NuScale Corp Warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Spring Valley Private Placement Warrants):

● in whole and not in part;

● at $0.10 per NuScale Corp Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided, that holders will be able to exercise their NuScale Corp Warrant on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of our Class A Common Stock except as otherwise described below;

105

● if, and only if, the closing price of our Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described under the heading “— Warrants — Public Shareholders’ Warrants — Anti-dilution Adjustments”) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

● if the closing price of our Class A Common Stock for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like), the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the NuScale Corp Warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants on a cashless basis. The numbers in the table below represent the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that a NuScale Corp Warrant holder will receive upon such cashless exercise in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of Class A Common Stock on the corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants and such warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per warrant), determined for these purposes based on the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of NuScale Corp Warrants, and the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the NuScale Corp Warrants, each as set forth in the table below. We will provide our warrant holders with the final fair market value no later than one business day after the 10-trading day period described above ends.

The share prices set forth in the column headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant or the exercise price of a NuScale Corp Warrant is adjusted as set forth under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments.” If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a NuScale Corp Warrant. If the exercise price of a NuScale Corp Warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the higher of the market value and the newly issued price as set forth under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a NuScale Corp Warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued for each NuScale Corp Warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the higher and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable. For example, if the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time there are 57 months until the expiration of the NuScale Corp Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants for 0.277 shares of Class A Common Stock for each whole NuScale Corp Warrant. For an example where the exact fair market value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the NuScale Corp Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants for 0.298 shares of Class A Common Stock for each whole NuScale Corp Warrant. In no event will the warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 shares of Class A Common Stock per NuScale Corp Warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the NuScale Corp Warrants are out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any shares of Class A Common Stock.

This redemption feature differs from the typical warrant redemption features used in some other blank check offerings, which only provide for a redemption of warrants for cash (other than the Spring Valley Private Placement Warrants) when the trading price for the shares exceeds $18.00 per share for a specified period of time. This redemption feature is structured to allow for all of the outstanding NuScale Corp Warrants to be redeemed when the shares of Class A Common Stock are trading at or above $10.00 per public share, which may be at a time when the trading price of shares of Class A Common Stock is below the exercise price of the NuScale Corp Warrants. We have established this redemption feature to provide us with the flexibility to redeem the NuScale Corp Warrants without the NuScale Corp Warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold set forth above under “— Redemption of NuScale Corp Warrants when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00.” Holders choosing to exercise

107

their NuScale Corp Warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a number of shares of Class A Common Stock for their NuScale Corp Warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input as of the date of our Initial Public Offering. This redemption right provides us with an additional mechanism by which to redeem all of the outstanding NuScale Corp Warrants, and therefore have certainty as to our capital structure as the warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed. We will be required to pay the applicable redemption price to warrant holders if we choose to exercise this redemption right and it will allow us to quickly proceed with a redemption of the NuScale Corp Warrants if we determine it is in our best interest to do so. As such, we would redeem the NuScale Corp Warrants in this manner when we believe it is in our best interest to update our capital structure to remove the warrants and pay the redemption price to the warrant holders.

As stated above, we can redeem the NuScale Corp Warrants when the shares of Class A Common Stock are trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50, because it will provide certainty with respect to our capital structure and cash position while providing warrant holders with the opportunity to exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of shares. If we choose to redeem the NuScale Corp Warrants when the shares of Class A Common Stock are trading at a price below the exercise price of the NuScale Corp Warrants, this could result in the warrant holders receiving fewer shares of Class A Common Stock than they would have received if they had chosen to wait to exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock if and when such shares of Class A Common Stock were trading at a price higher than the exercise price of $11.50.

No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to the holder. If, at the time of redemption, the NuScale Corp Warrants are exercisable for a security other than the shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the warrant agreement, the NuScale Corp Warrants may be exercised for such security. At such time as the NuScale Corp Warrants become exercisable for a security other than the shares of Class A Common Stock, NuScale Corp (or surviving company) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security issuable upon the exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants.

Redemption Procedures.

A holder of a NuScale Corp Warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

Anti-dilution Adjustments.

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock is increased by a capitalization or share dividend payable in shares of Class A Common Stock, or by a split-up of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization or share dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each NuScale Corp Warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of common stock. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of common stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a price less than the “historical fair market value” (as defined below) will be deemed a share dividend of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Class A Common Stock) and (ii) one minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Class A Common Stock paid in such rights offering and (y) the historical fair market value. For these purposes, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Class A Common Stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “historical fair market value” means the VWAP of shares of Class A Common Stock as reported during the 10 trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Class A

108

Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to all or substantially all of the holders of share of Class A Common Stock on account of such Class A Common Stock (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the shares of Class A Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50 (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each warrant) but only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50 per share, or (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the Transactions, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Class A Common Stock in respect of such event.

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-division or reclassification of shares of Class A Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-division, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

Whenever the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants is adjusted, as described above, the NuScale Corp Warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Class A Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Class A Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the NuScale Corp Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Class A Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the NuScale Corp Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their NuScale Corp Warrants immediately prior to such event. However, if such holders were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets for which each NuScale Corp Warrant will become exercisable will be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by such holders in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and if a tender, exchange or redemption offer has been made to and accepted by such holders under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock, the holder of a NuScale Corp Warrant will be entitled to receive the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such warrant holder had exercised the NuScale Corp

109

Warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the Class A Common Stock held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustment (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in the warrant agreement. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the NuScale Corp Warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the NuScale Corp Warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the NuScale Corp Warrants pursuant to which the holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the NuScale Corp Warrants. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the NuScale Corp Warrants pursuant to which the holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the NuScale Corp Warrants.

The NuScale Corp Warrants have been issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the NuScale Corp Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder for the purpose of (i) curing any ambiguity or correct any mistake, including to conform the provisions of the warrant agreement to the description of the terms of the NuScale Corp Warrants and the warrant agreement set forth in Spring Valley’s prospectus, or defective provision, (ii) amending the provisions relating to cash dividends on ordinary shares as contemplated by and in accordance with the warrant agreement or (iii) adding or changing any provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the warrant agreement as the parties to the warrant agreement may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem to not adversely affect the rights of the registered holders of the NuScale Corp Warrants; provided, that the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then- outstanding NuScale Corp Public Warrants is required to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and any voting rights until they exercise their NuScale Corp Warrants and receive shares of Class A Common Stock. After the issuance of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

No fractional NuScale Corp Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole NuScale Corp Warrants will trade. If, upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to the warrant holder.

We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. See “Risk Factors — Our warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company.” This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to claims under the Exchange Act or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum.

NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants

Except as described below, the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in Spring Valley’s Initial Public Offering. The NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants (including the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants ) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Transactions, except pursuant to limited exceptions to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants, and they will not be redeemable by us, except as described above when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees (except as otherwise set forth herein). The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis. If the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the NuScale Corp Public Placement Warrants. Any amendment to the terms of the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants or any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants will require a vote of holders of at least 60% of the number of the then outstanding NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants.

Except as described above regarding redemption procedures and cashless exercise in respect of the NuScale Corp Public Warrants, if holders of the NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Sponsor fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the historical fair market value. The “Sponsor fair market value” will mean the average reported closing price of the shares of Class A Common Stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The reason that we have agreed that these warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor and its permitted transferees is because it is not known at this time whether they will be affiliated with us following the Transactions. If they remain affiliated with us, their ability to sell our securities in the open market will be significantly limited. We expect to have policies in place that restrict insiders from selling our securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell our securities, an insider cannot trade in our securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike Public Shareholders who could exercise their warrants and sell their shares of Class A Common Stock received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders could be significantly restricted from selling such securities. As a result, we believe that allowing the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis is appropriate.

Transfer Agent, Warrant Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock and the warrant agent for the NuScale Corp Public Warrants and NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

We cannot predict the effect, if any, future sales of shares of Class A Common Stock, or the availability for future sale of shares of Class A Common Stock, will have on the market price of shares of our Class A Common Stock prevailing from time to time. The sale of substantial amounts of shares of our Class A Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the prevailing market price of shares of our Class A Common Stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity or equity-related securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of our Class A Common Stock—A significant portion of our total outstanding shares are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of Common Stock to drop significantly, even if NuScale Corp’s business is doing well.”

Prior to the issuance of the securities offered by this prospectus, we have a total of 43,615,304 shares of our Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding. Of these shares, all of the shares sold in Spring Valley’s initial public offering and not redeemed (totaling 14,400,369 shares of our Class A Common Stock) are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act by persons other than our “affiliates.” Under the Securities Act, an “affiliate” of an issuer is a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with that issuer. The remaining shares of our Class A Common Stock are “restricted securities,” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and may not be sold absent registration under the Securities Act or compliance with Rule 144 thereunder or in reliance on another exemption from registration.

This registration statement registers the issuance to Legacy NuScale Equityholders of up to 178,396,711 of Class A Common Stock in exchange for NuScale LLC Class B Units (and the cancellation of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock), and the issuance of up to 20,400,000 shares upon the exercise of NuScale Warrants, and registers for resale 8,900,000 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock and up to an aggregate of 209,870,307 shares of Class A Common Stock (including the resale of most of the shares registered in the primary offering). The resale registration is made pursuant to our obligations under (a) the Registration Rights Agreement with the Sponsor, the Sponsor Sub, and certain of the Legacy NuScale Equityholders pursuant to which we granted them and their affiliates the right, under certain circumstances and subject to certain restrictions, to require us to register under the Securities Act certain securities held by such holders, including registration of the shares of Class A Common Stock delivered to the Legacy NuScale Equityholders in exchange for NuScale LLC Class B Units, and (b) the Subscription Agreements, pursuant to which we are required to file with the SEC and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a registration statement registering the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued to the PIPE Investors.

We expect that substantially all of our outstanding shares may be sold pursuant to this registration statement or otherwise will be freely tradable, subject only to restrictions that apply to our affiliates and to the lockup agreements described below.

Equity Plans

We expect to file a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the offer and sale of all shares of Class A Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for shares of our Class A Common Stock issued or issuable under the Long-Term Incentive Plan and NuScale LLC’s 2011 Plan. Shares of our Class A Common Stock registered under such registration statement will be available for resale by nonaffiliates in the public market without restriction under the Securities Act and by affiliates in the public market subject to compliance with the resale provisions of Rule 144.

Registration Rights

In connection with the closing of the Transactions, we entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with the Sponsor, the Sponsor Sub, and certain of the Legacy NuScale Equityholders pursuant to which we granted them and their affiliates the right, under certain circumstances and subject to certain restrictions, to require us to register under the Securities Act certain securities held by such holders, including registration of the shares of Class A Common Stock

112

delivered to the Legacy NuScale Equityholders in exchange for NuScale LLC Class B Units and cancellation of shares of Class B Common Stock.

Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, we are required to file with the SEC and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a registration statement registering the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued to the PIPE Investors. Such rights terminate with respect to any shares held by a PIPE Investor on the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement, (ii) the date on which all such shares have been sold, and (iii) the first date on which such PIPE Investor can sell all such shares under Rule 144 without limitation as to the manner of sale or amount of securities sold.

Lock-Up Agreements

Pursuant to the Sponsor Letter Agreement, the Sponsor Sub has agreed to, among other things, (i) certain vesting and forfeiture terms with respect to up to 35% of the Class A Common Stock owned by it as a result of conversion of shares of Spring Valley Class B ordinary shares if Closing Acquiror Cash is less than $432 million, (ii) certain vesting and forfeiture terms with respect to up to 35% of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsor Sub immediately following the Closing, (iii) to subject the Sponsor Sub to a post-Closing lock-up period that ends on the earlier to occur of one year after the Closing Date and if, following the 150th day after the Closing Date, over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period, the VWAP of the NuScale Corp Common Stock is greater than or equal to $12.00 per share, then upon the close of such 20th trading day, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sponsor Letter Agreement and (iv) extend the May 27, 2022 deadline by which Spring Valley must complete an initial business combination by six months to November 27, 2022 upon Sponsor’s purchase of 2,300,000 additional NuScale Corp Warrants for $2,300,000.

Pursuant to the Director Lock-Up Agreement, certain directors of Spring Valley have agreed, among other things, to subject to a post-Closing lock-up period that ends on the earlier to occur of one year after the Closing Date and if, following the 150th day after the Closing Date, over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period, the VWAP of the NuScale Corp Common Stock is greater than or equal to $12.00 per share, then upon the close of such 20th trading day, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Director Lock-Up Agreement.

Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreements, certain Legacy NuScale Equityholders have agreed not to transfer, sell, assign, or otherwise dispose of, (i) the shares of our Class A Common Stock received by the such Legacy NuScale Equityholders on the closing date of the Transactions and (ii) any shares of Class A Common Stock received by such Legacy NuScale Equityholders thereafter pursuant to a direct exchange or redemption of NuScale LLC Class B Units held as of the closing date of the Transactions under the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement. Such restrictions end on the earlier of (A) October 29, 2022, and (B) on the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our securityholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, subject to certain exceptions.

Rule 144

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned “restricted securities” of NuScale Corp (which includes securities acquired from NuScale Corp or an affiliate of NuScale Corp in a transaction or chain of transactions not involving any public offering) for at least six months generally is entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.

113

A person who has beneficially owned restricted securities of NuScale Corp for at least six months but who is our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale generally is entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

● 1% of the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding (as of May 3, 2022, NuScale Corp had 43,615,304 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding); or

● the average weekly reported trading volume of NuScale Corp common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by our affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

● the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

● the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

● the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

● at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company (“Form 10 information”).

We have not been a shell company since May 2, 2022, the date on which the Transactions closed. Once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR HOLDERS OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Class A Common Stock and warrants, which we collectively refer to as our “securities,” but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local, or non-U.S. tax laws are not discussed. This discussion is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the IRS, in each case in effect as of the date hereof. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a holder of our securities. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Class A Common Stock or warrants.

This discussion is limited to holders of our Class A Common Stock or warrants as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a holder’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income and the alternative minimum tax. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to holders subject to special rules, including, without limitation:

● U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

● persons holding our securities as part of a hedge, straddle, or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion transaction or other integrated investment;

● banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions;

● brokers, dealers, or traders in securities;

● “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

● partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein);

● tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations;

● persons deemed to sell our securities under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;

● persons who hold or receive our securities pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation;

● tax-qualified retirement plans; and

● “qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds.

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our securities, the tax treatment of an owner in such an entity will depend on the status of the owner, the activities of such entity, and certain determinations made at the owner level. Accordingly, entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes holding our securities and the owners in such entities should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

115

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, AND DISPOSITION OF OUR SECURITIES ARISING UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY.

U.S. Holders

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is any beneficial owner of our Class A Common Stock or warrants that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

● an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

● a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

● an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

● a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (2) has a valid election in effect to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Taxation of Distributions. As described in the section entitled “Dividend Policy,” we do not anticipate declaring or paying dividends to holders of our Class A Common Stock in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions of cash or property on our Class A Common Stock, the gross amount of distributions made with respect to the Class A Common Stock generally will be includible in a U.S. Holder’s gross income, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as dividend income to the extent that such distributions are paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Dividends will be taxable to a corporate U.S. Holder at regular corporate tax rates and will generally be eligible for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. Distributions in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in its Class A Common Stock (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of such Class A Common Stock, as described under “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants” below.

With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders and with certain exceptions, dividends may be “qualified dividend income,” which is taxed at the lower applicable long-term capital gain rate provided that the U.S. Holder satisfies certain holding period requirements and the U.S. Holder is not under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, then non-corporate U.S. Holders may be subject to tax on such dividends at regular ordinary income tax rates instead of the preferential rate that applies to qualified dividend income.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants. Upon a sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A Common Stock or warrants, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Class A Common Stock or warrants. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Class A Common Stock or warrants so disposed of exceeds one year. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, any gain on a sale or taxable disposition of the Class A Common Stock or warrants would be subject to short-term capital gain treatment and would be taxed at regular ordinary income tax rates. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

116

Generally, the amount of gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder is an amount equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A Common Stock or warrants so disposed of. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A Common Stock or warrant generally will equal the U.S. Holder’s adjusted cost less, in the case of a share of Class A Common Stock, any prior distributions treated as a return of capital. In the case of any shares of Class A Common Stock or warrants originally acquired as part of an investment unit, the acquisition cost for the share of Class A Common Stock and warrant that were part of such unit would equal an allocable portion of the acquisition cost of the unit based on the relative fair market values of the components of the unit at the time of acquisition.

Exercise, Lapse, or Redemption of a Warrant. Except as discussed below with respect to the cashless exercise of a warrant, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the exercise of a warrant. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a share of our Class A Common Stock received upon exercise of the warrant generally will be an amount equal to the sum of the U.S. Holder’s initial investment in the warrant and the exercise price. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the share of Class A Common Stock received upon exercise of the warrant generally will commence on the date of exercise of the warrant or the date following the date of exercise of the warrant; however, in either case the holding period will not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the warrant. If a warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the warrant.

The tax consequences of a cashless exercise of a warrant are not clear under current tax law. A cashless exercise may be tax-free, either because the exercise is not a gain realization event or because the exercise is treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In either tax-free situation, a U.S. Holder’s basis in the share of Class A Common Stock received would equal the holder’s basis in the warrants used to effect the cashless exercise. If the cashless exercise is not treated as a gain realization event, a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the Class A Common Stock generally would be treated as commencing on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise of the warrant). If the cashless exercise were treated as a recapitalization, the holding period of the Class A Common Stock would include the holding period of the warrant.

It is also possible that a cashless exercise could be treated in part as a taxable exchange in which gain or loss would be recognized. In such event, a portion of the warrants to be exercised on a cashless basis could, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be deemed to have been surrendered in consideration for the exercise price of the remaining warrants, which would be deemed to be exercised. For this purpose, a U.S. Holder could be deemed to have surrendered warrants having an aggregate fair market value equal to the exercise price for the total number of warrants to be deemed exercised. The U.S. Holder would recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the warrants deemed surrendered and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such warrants. In this case, a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Class A Common Stock received would equal the sum of the U.S. Holder’s initial investment in the warrants deemed exercised and the exercise price of such warrants. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Class A Common Stock in such case generally would commence on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the warrant.

Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise, there can be no assurance which, if any, of the alternative tax consequences and holding periods described above would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a cashless exercise.

Possible Constructive Distributions. The terms of each warrant provide for an adjustment to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which the warrant may be exercised or to the exercise price of the warrant in certain events as discussed in the section of this registration statement captioned “Description of Capital Stock—Warrants.” An adjustment which has the effect of preventing dilution generally is not taxable. U.S. Holders of the warrants would, however, be treated as receiving a constructive distribution from us if, for example, the adjustment increases the warrant holders’ proportionate interest in our assets or earnings and profits (for instance, through an increase in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would be obtained upon exercise or through a decrease in the exercise price of the warrant) as a result of a distribution of cash or other property such as other securities to the holders of our Class A Common Stock which is taxable to the U.S. Holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock, or as a result of the issuance of a stock dividend to holders of shares of our common stock as described under “—Taxation of Distributions”

117

above. Such constructive distributions would be subject to tax as described under that section in the same manner as if the U.S. Holders of the warrants received a cash distribution from us equal to the fair market value of such increased interest. Generally, a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its warrants should be increased to the extent of any constructive distribution treated as a dividend. For certain informational reporting purposes, we are required to determine the date and amount of any such constructive distributions and publicly report such information or report such information to the IRS and holders of warrants not exempt from information reporting. Proposed Treasury Regulations, which we may rely on prior to the issuance of final regulations, specify how the date and amount of constructive distributions are determined.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Distributions with respect to the Class A Common Stock to a U.S. Holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends, and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of the Class A Common Stock by a U.S. Holder generally are subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible U.S. backup withholding, unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient. Backup withholding may apply to such payments if a U.S. Holder fails to furnish a correct taxpayer identification number, a certification of exempt status or has been notified by the IRS that it is subject to backup withholding (and such notification has not been withdrawn).

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and such holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.

Non-U.S. Holders

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is any beneficial owner of our Class A Common Stock or warrants that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

● a non-resident alien individual;

● a foreign corporation; or

● a foreign estate or trust.

Taxation of Distributions. If we do make distributions of cash or property on our Class A Common Stock, such distributions will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Amounts not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will constitute a return of capital and first be applied against and reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A Common Stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.”

Subject to the discussion below on effectively connected income, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided the Non-U.S. Holder furnishes a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) certifying qualification for the lower treaty rate). A Non-U.S. Holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

If dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable), the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax described above. To claim the exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States.

118

Any such effectively connected dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants. A Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A Common Stock or warrants (including an expiration of warrants) unless:

● the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such gain is attributable);

● the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met; or

● our Class A Common Stock and warrants constitute U.S. real property interest (USRPI) by reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation (USRPHC) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected gain, as adjusted for certain items.

A Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A Common Stock, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the Non-U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

With respect to the third bullet point above, we believe we currently are not, and do not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC. Because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends, however, on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our non-U.S. real property interests and our other business assets, there can be no assurance we currently are not a USRPHC or will not become one in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A Common Stock and warrants by a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our Class A Common Stock and warrants are “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market and such Non-U.S. Holder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our Class A Common Stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding potentially applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Exercise, Lapse, or Redemption of a Warrant. The characterization for U.S. federal income tax purposes of the exercise, redemption or lapse of a warrant held by a Non-U.S. Holder will generally correspond to the characterization described under “—U.S. Holders—Exercise, Lapse, or Redemption of a Warrant” above, although to the extent a cashless exercise or redemption results in a taxable exchange, the consequences would follow those described above in “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.”

Possible Constructive Distributions. The terms of each warrant provide for an adjustment to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which the warrant may be exercised or to the exercise price of the warrant in certain events as discussed in the section of this prospectus captioned “Description of Capital Stock—Warrants.” An adjustment which has the effect of preventing dilution generally is not taxable. The Non-U.S. Holders of the warrants would, however, be

119

treated as receiving a constructive distribution from us if, for example, the adjustment increases the Non-U.S. Holders’ proportionate interest in our assets or earnings and profits (for instance, through an increase in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would be obtained upon exercise or through a decrease in the exercise price of the warrant) as a result of a distribution of cash or other property such as other securities to the holders of shares of our Class A Common Stock, or as a result of the issuance of a stock dividend to holders of shares of our common stock. Such constructive distribution to a Non-U.S. Holder of warrants would be treated as if such Non-U.S. Holder had received a cash distribution from us equal to the fair market value of such increased interest (taxed as described above under “— Taxation of Distributions”). For certain informational reporting purposes, we are required to determine the date and amount of any such constructive distributions and publicly report such information or report such information to the IRS and holders of warrants not exempt from information reporting. Proposed Treasury Regulations, which taxpayers may generally rely on prior to the issuance of final regulations, specify how the date and amount of constructive distributions are determined.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Payments of dividends on our Class A Common Stock will not be subject to backup withholding, provided the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know the holder is a United States person and the holder either certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by furnishing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI, or otherwise establishes an exemption. However, information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with any distributions on our Class A Common Stock paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends or whether any tax was actually withheld. In addition, proceeds of the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A Common Stock and warrants within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related brokers generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting if the applicable withholding agent receives the certification described above and does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such holder is a United States person or the holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of our Class A Common Stock and warrants conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting.

Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts. Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends on, or (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our Class A Common Stock paid, or constructive distributions deemed paid, if any, with respect to our warrants, to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), unless (1) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our Class A Common Stock.

120

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in our securities.

121

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering (i) 209,870,307 shares of Class A Common Stock for possible sale by the selling securityholders from time to time (which includes up to 8,900,000 shares of Class A Common Stock that are issuable upon the exercise of NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants by the holders thereof) and (ii) up to 8,900,000 NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants for possible sale by the selling securityholders from time to time. We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants to be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus. The selling securityholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their sale of shares of Class A Common Stock and NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants.

The selling securityholders, which as used herein include donees, pledgees, transferees, distributees, or other successors-in-interest selling shares of our Class A Common Stock or NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants or interests in our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants received after the date of this prospectus from the selling securityholders as a gift, pledge, distribution, or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer, distribute, or otherwise dispose of certain of their shares of Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants or interests in our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants on any stock exchange, market, or trading facility on which shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants, as applicable, are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

Each selling securityholder will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price or in negotiated transactions.

The selling securityholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of their securities or interests therein:

● ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

● one or more underwritten offerings;

● block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

● purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its accounts;

● an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

● privately negotiated transactions;

● distributions to their members, partners, or stockholders;

● short sales effected after the date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is declared effective by the SEC;

● through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

● in market transactions, including transactions on a national securities exchange or quotations service or over-the-counter market;

122

● through trading plans entered into by a selling securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;

● in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents;

● directly to one or more purchasers;

● through agents;

● broker-dealers who may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per share or warrant;

● a combination of any such methods of sale;

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling securityholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants owned by them and, if a selling securityholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such securities, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of the selling securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee, or other successors-in-interest as the selling securityholders under this prospectus. The selling securityholders also may transfer securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees, or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants or interests therein, the selling securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of such securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling securityholders may also sell shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants offered by this prospectus, which shares or warrants such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the securities by the selling securityholders. We will receive proceeds from NuScale Corp Warrants exercised in the event that such warrants are exercised for cash. The aggregate proceeds to the selling securityholders from the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants offered by them will be the purchase price of such securities, less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling securityholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from any offering by the selling securityholders.

A selling securityholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by any

123

selling securityholder or borrowed from any selling securityholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of shares of Class A Common Stock or NuScale Corp Private Placement Warrants, and may use securities received from any selling securityholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of securities. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, any selling securityholder may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

The selling securityholders also may in the future resell a portion of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants in open-market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act (provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule), or pursuant to other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

The selling securityholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents that participate in the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions, or profit they earn on any resale of such securities may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any selling securityholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, then the selling securityholder will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. Underwriters and their controlling persons, dealers, and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us and the selling securityholders, to indemnification against and contribution toward specific civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants to be sold, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agent, dealer, or underwriter, and any applicable discounts, commissions, concessions, or other compensation with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

To facilitate the offering of securities offered by the selling securityholders, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of our Class A Common Stock or warrants. This may include over-allotments or short sales, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more shares of Class A Common Stock or warrants than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of our Class A Common Stock or warrants by bidding for or purchasing shares of Class A Common Stock or warrants in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if shares of Class A Common Stock or warrants sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of our Class A Common Stock or warrants at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

The selling securityholders may solicit offers to purchase the securities directly from, and it may sell such securities directly to, institutional investors or others. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. The terms of any of those sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, if utilized, will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in our securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for our securities. Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SMR” and our warrants are currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SMR WS”.

The selling securityholders may authorize underwriters, broker-dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to

124

delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we or the selling securityholders pay for solicitation of these contracts.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling securityholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

In compliance with the guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the aggregate maximum discount, commission, fees or other items constituting underwriting compensation to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer will not exceed 8% of the gross proceeds of any offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

If at the time of any offering made under this prospectus a member of FINRA participating in the offering has a “conflict of interest” as defined in FINRA Rule 5121 (“Rule 5121”), that offering will be conducted in accordance with the relevant provisions of Rule 5121.

Under the Registration Rights Agreement and the Subscription Agreements, we have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholders party thereto against certain liabilities that they may incur in connection with the sale of the securities registered hereunder, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the selling securityholders may be required to make with respect thereto. In addition, we and the selling securityholders may agree to indemnify any underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent against certain liabilities related to the selling of the securities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part until all such securities have been sold under such registration statement or under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or are no longer outstanding, or under other circumstances as described in the Registration Rights Agreement and the Subscription Agreements. We have agreed to pay all expenses in connection with this offering, other than underwriting fees, discounts, selling commissions, stock transfer taxes, and certain legal expenses. The selling securityholders will pay, on a pro rata basis, any underwriting fees, discounts, selling commissions, stock transfer taxes, and certain legal expenses relating to the offering.

The selling securityholders may use this prospectus in connection with resales of shares of our Class A Common Stock and private placement warrants. This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement will identify the selling securityholders, the terms of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants, and any material relationships between us and the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act in connection with shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants they resell and any profits on the sales may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Unless otherwise set forth in a prospectus supplement, the selling securityholders will receive all the net proceeds from the resale of shares of our Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants.

A selling securityholder that is an entity may elect to make an in-kind distribution of Class A Common Stock or private placement warrants to its members, partners, or stockholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part by delivering a prospectus. To the extent that such members, partners, or stockholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners, or stockholders would thereby receive freely tradable shares of Class A Common Stock or warrants pursuant to the distribution through a registration statement.

To the extent a distributee is an affiliate of ours (or to the extent otherwise required by law), we may file a prospectus supplement in order to permit the distributees to use the prospectus to resell the securities acquired in the distribution.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the securities may not be

125

sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

The selling securityholders are subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including Regulation M. This regulation may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities offered in this prospectus by the selling securityholders. The anti-manipulation rules under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of the securities in the market and to the activities of the selling securityholders and their affiliates. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the securities to engage in market-making activities for the particular securities being distributed for a period of up to five business days before the distribution. The restrictions may affect the marketability of the securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities for the securities. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify certain selling securityholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of Common Stock. The selling securityholders may indemnify any broker-dealer, agent or underwriter that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of shares of our Class A Common Stock and private placement warrants to be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus.

A holder of NuScale Corp Warrants may exercise its warrants in accordance with the warrant agreement on or before the expiration date set forth therein by surrendering, at the office of the Warrant agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the certificate evidencing such warrant, with the form of election to purchase set forth thereon, properly completed and duly executed, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the NuScale Corp Warrant, subject to any applicable provisions relating to cashless exercises in accordance with the warrant agreement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Spring Valley Acquisition Corporation

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Spring Valley Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs and complete a business combination by May 27, 2022 then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ WithumSmith+Brown, PC

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2020.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Note 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 20, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, searching for a business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 23, 2020. On November 27, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,900,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Spring Valley Acquisition Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $8,900,000, which is described in Note 4.

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering and were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in November 2020. Offering costs amounting to $12,492,354 (consisting of $3,800,000 in underwriting commissions, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriters’ fee and $592,354 of other offering costs, offset by $750,000 in reimbursement received from underwriters) were incurred, of which $749,253 were allocated to warrants and expensed and $11,743,101 were allocated against the Class A shares.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, an amount of $232,300,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earliest of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of any deferred

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

underwriting commission and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the public shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Business Combination, either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, for an amount equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to certain limitations as described in the prospectus. The per-share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company seeks shareholder approval, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest and other income earned on the Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

The Company will initially have until May 27, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by May 27, 2022, it may, by resolution of the board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination one time, by an additional six months, subject to the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees purchasing additional Private Placement Warrants. The shareholders will not be entitled to vote or redeem their Public Shares in connection with any such extension. In order to extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination for such six-month period, the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees, must purchase an additional 2,300,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant and deposit the $2,300,000 in proceeds into the Trust Account on or prior to May 27, 2022. The Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees are not obligated to purchase additional Private Placement Warrants to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 7) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the per share value deposited into the Trust Account.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.10 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.10 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does

business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations

As of December 31, 2021, the Company we had approximately $985,000 of cash held outside of the Trust Account and working capital of approximately $0.7 million.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until May 27, 2022, to consummate the proposed Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate the proposed Business Combination by this time. Additionally, the Company may not have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company through one year from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. If a business combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after May 27, 2022. The Company intends to complete the proposed Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any business combination by May 27, 2022.

Proposed Business Combination – NuScale Power, LLC

On December 13, 2021, the Company, Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), and NuScale Power, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (the “NuScale”), entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to obtaining the Acquiror Stockholder Approvals (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (i) Spring Valley will domesticate as a corporation in the State of Delaware and (ii) Merger Sub will be merged with and into NuScale (the “Merger,” together with the other transactions related thereto, the “Proposed Transactions”), with NuScale being the surviving entity following the Merger (the “Surviving Company”). Following the Merger, Spring Valley will be renamed NuScale Power Corporation and is expected to trade on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the ticker “SMR”. After the closing of the Merger, NuScale, as the Surviving Company, will continue to be held as a wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in a customary “Up-C” holding structure.

Refer to the Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 14, 2021 and January 4, 2022 for additional information.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company, which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Derivative Warrant Liability

The Company accounts for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each

F-11

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants has been estimated using the Public Warrants’ quoted market price. The Private Placement Warrants are valued using a Modified Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. See Note 9 for further discussion of the pertinent terms of the Warrants and Note 10 for further discussion of the methodology used to determine the value of the Warrants.

Class A Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2021 and 2020, 23,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Offering Costs

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares are charged against their carrying value upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Deferred underwriting commissions are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2021, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented. The Company's management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.

The calculation of diluted net income (loss) does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (including the consummation of the Over-allotment) and the private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of 22,529,000 Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per share is the same as basic net income (loss) per share for the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limits of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how

market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Initial Public Offering

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

Note 4 - Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On August 21, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to the Company in consideration for 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). In September 2020, the Sponsor transferred 40,000 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s directors (120,000 shares in total). On October 22, 2020, the Sponsor effected a surrender of 1,437,500 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration, resulting in 5,750,000 Founder Shares outstanding. The Sponsor transferred all of the Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor to SV Acquisition Sponsor Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Sponsor (“Holdco”), prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares that were subject to forfeiture depending on

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares would equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, a total of 750,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earliest of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Administrative Support Agreement

Commencing on November 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor up to $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, $120,000 and $0, respectively, has been expensed related to the agreement. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had accrued $40,000, for services in connection with such agreement on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There was no outstanding balance under this agreement as of December 31, 2020.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On August 21, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2020 or (ii) the completion of the Initial Public Offering. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there is no outstanding amounts under the Promissory Note. Subsequent to the repayment, the facility was no longer available to the Company.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no Working Capital Loans outstanding.

Note 6 - Commitments And Contingencies

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, its results of operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration and Shareholders’ Rights

Pursuant to a registration and Shareholders’ rights agreement entered into on November 23, 2020, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration and shareholder rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the underwriters reimbursed the Company an aggregate of $750,000 for costs incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering.

Anchor Investments

Certain qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors not affiliated with any member of the Company’s management (the “anchor investors”) purchased 1,980,000 Units each in the Initial Public Offering and the Company directed the underwriters to sell to the anchor investors such number of Units. Further, each of the anchor investors entered into a separate agreement with the Sponsor pursuant to which each such investor purchased membership interests in Holdco representing an indirect beneficial interest in up to 142,187 Founder Shares upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering for $495.

Contingent Fees

The Company entered into a contingent fee arrangement with one of the Company's service providers in connection with the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. Per the arrangement, fees for services performed were contingent upon the closing of a Business Combination and therefore not included as liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets. As of December 31, 2021, these fees were approximately $4.0 million. There were no such fees outstanding under the arrangement as of December 31, 2020.

Note 7  - Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of future events. The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were 23,000,000 Class A ordinary shares outstanding, which were all subject to possible redemption and classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets.

Preference Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class A Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share.

Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of  (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private

Note 9 - Derivative Warrant Liabilities

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) one year from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable, and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified, or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):

● in whole and not in part;

● at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

● upon a minimum of 30 days' prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

● in whole and not in part;

● at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;

● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equal or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

● if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if  (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable, or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. During the year ended December 31, 2021 there were no transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3. During the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of Public Warrants was transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 measurement, when the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded in an active market in December 2020. There were no transfers during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Level 1 instruments include investments in mutual funds invested in U.S. government securities. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources to determine the fair value of its investments.

The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities pursuant to ASC 815-40 and are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the Warrants are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in each period.

The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities, measured using Level 3 inputs, measured on a recurring basis.

For the year ended December 31, 2021
Derivative warrant liabilities at January 1, 2021	$	14,685,000
Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities		89,000
Derivative warrant liabilities at December 31, 2021	$	14,774,000

For the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020
Derivative warrant liabilities at August 20, 2020 (inception)	$	—
Issuance of Public and Private Warrants		22,529,000
Transfer of Public Warrants to Level 1		(12,650,000)
Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities		4,806,000
Derivative warrant liabilities at December 31, 2020	$	14,685,000

The initial fair value of the Public and Private Placement Warrants, issued concurrently and in connection with the Initial Public Offering, has been estimated using a Least Squares Monte Carlo Model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. As the path-dependent nature of the redemption provisions does not apply to the Private Placement warrants, the Company estimated the fair value using a Least Square Monte Carlo Model framework with significant assumptions including the price of the Company’s ordinary shares, risk-free rate, volatility, and term to the Company’s initial business combination.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs at their measurement dates:

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 20, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through March 31, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, searching for a business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 23, 2020. On November 27, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,900,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Spring Valley Acquisition Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $8,900,000, which is described in Note 4.

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering and were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in November 2020. Offering costs amounting to $12,492,354 (consisting of $3,800,000 in underwriting commissions, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriters’ fee and $592,354 of other offering costs, offset by $750,000 in reimbursement received from underwriters) were incurred, of which $749,253 were allocated to warrants and expensed and $11,743,101 were allocated against the Class A shares.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, an amount of $232,300,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earliest of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting commission and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the public shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Business Combination, either (i) in connection with a general meeting called

F-27

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, for an amount equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to certain limitations as described in the prospectus. The per-share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company seeks shareholder approval, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest and other income earned on the Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.

The Company will initially have until May 27, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by May 27, 2022, it may, by resolution of the board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination one time, by an additional six months, subject to the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees purchasing additional Private Placement Warrants. The shareholders will not be entitled to vote or redeem their Public Shares in connection with any such extension. In order to extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination for such six-month period, the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees, must purchase an additional 2,300,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant and deposit the $2,300,000 in proceeds into the Trust Account on or prior to May 27, 2022. The Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees are not obligated to purchase additional Private Placement Warrants to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the

F-28

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the per share value deposited into the Trust Account.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of  (1) $10.10 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.10 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $577,000 of cash held outside of the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of approximately $4.4 million.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until May 27, 2022, to consummate the proposed Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate the proposed Business Combination by this time. Additionally, the Company may not have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company through one year from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. If a business combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after May 27, 2022. The Company intends to complete the proposed Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any business combination by May 27, 2022.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed with the SEC on March 10, 2022 which contains the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include its wholly owned subsidiary in connection with the planned merger. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period

F-30

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company, which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these condensed consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Derivative Warrant Liability

The Company accounts for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants has been estimated using the Public Warrants’ quoted market price. As the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. See Note 9 for further discussion of the pertinent terms of the Warrants and Note 10 for further discussion of the methodology used to determine the value of the Warrants.

Class A Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 23,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

F-31

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Offering Costs

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares are charged against their carrying value upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Deferred underwriting commissions are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented. The Company's management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income (loss) per ordinary share calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.

The calculation of diluted net income (loss) does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (including the consummation of the Over-allotment) and the private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of 22,529,000 Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, because the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per share is the same as basic net income (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limits of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature except for derivative warrant liabilities (see Note 10).

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on the Company's assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Initial Public Offering

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

Note 4 - Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On August 21, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to the Company in consideration for 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). In September 2020, the Sponsor transferred 40,000 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s directors (120,000 shares in total). On October 22, 2020, the Sponsor effected a surrender of 1,437,500 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration, resulting in 5,750,000 Founder Shares outstanding. The Sponsor transferred all of the Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor to SV Acquisition Sponsor Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Sponsor (“Holdco”), prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares that were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares would equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, a total of 750,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earliest of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Administrative Support Agreement

Commencing on November 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor up to $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, $30,000 has been expensed related to the agreement. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had accrued $50,000 and $40,000, respectively, for services in connection with such agreement on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Promissory Note - Related Party

On August 21, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2020 or (ii) the completion of the Initial Public Offering. As of March 31, 2022 and

F-34

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2021, there was no outstanding amounts under the Promissory Note. Subsequent to the repayment, the facility was no longer available to the Company.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no Working Capital Loans outstanding.

Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies

Registration and Shareholders’ Rights

Pursuant to a registration and shareholders’ rights agreement entered into on November 23, 2020, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration and shareholder rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the underwriters reimbursed the Company an aggregate of $750,000 for costs incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering.

Anchor Investments

Certain qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors not affiliated with any member of the Company’s management (the “anchor investors”) purchased 1,980,000 Units each in the Initial Public Offering and the Company directed the underwriters to sell to the anchor investors such number of Units. Further, each of the anchor investors entered into a separate agreement with the Sponsor pursuant to which each such investor purchased membership interests in Holdco representing an indirect beneficial interest in up to 142,187 Founder Shares upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering for $495.

Contingent Fees

The Company entered into a contingent fee arrangement with one of the Company's service providers in connection with the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. Per the arrangement, fees for services performed were contingent upon the closing of a Business Combination and therefore not included as liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, these fees were approximately $0 and $4.0 million, respectively.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, its results of operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Class A Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share.

Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of  (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed

issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company’s management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one-to-one.

Note 9 - Derivative Warrant Liabilities

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) one year from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable, and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified, or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):

● in whole and not in part;

● at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

F-37

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

● in whole and not in part;

● at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;

● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equal or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

● if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if  (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of its Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable, or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to

F-38

SPRING VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Note 10 - Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Derivative warrant liabilities - Private Warrants	$	—	$	—	$	14,774,000

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 2 measurement in January 2022, as the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. There were no other transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Level 1 instruments include investments in mutual funds invested in U.S. government securities. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources to determine the fair value of its investments.

The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities pursuant to ASC 815-40 and are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the Warrants are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in each period.

The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities, measured using Level 3 inputs, measured on a recurring basis.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022
Derivative warrant liabilities at January 1, 2022	$	14,774,000

Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities		89,000
Derivative warrant liabilities at December 31, 2021	$	14,774,000

The initial fair value of the Public and Private Placement Warrants, issued concurrently and in connection with the Initial Public Offering, has been estimated using a Least Squares Monte Carlo Model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. As the path-dependent nature of the redemption provisions does not apply to the Private Placement warrants, the Company estimated the fair value using a Least Square Monte Carlo Model framework with significant assumptions including the price of the Company’s ordinary shares, risk-free rate, volatility, and term to the Company’s initial business combination.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs at their measurement dates:

	As of
	December 31, 2021
Exercise price	$	11.50
IPO price	$	10.00

Based upon this review, except as noted below the Company did not identify any subsequent events that have not been disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Pipe Subscription Agreements

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, on December 13, 2021, Spring Valley entered into separate subscription agreements (collectively, the “Initial Subscription Agreements”) with a number of investors (each, a “Subscriber” and collectively, the “Subscribers”), pursuant to which the Subscribers agreed to purchase, and Spring Valley agreed to sell to the Subscribers, an aggregate of 21,300,002 shares of Spring Valley Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Spring Valley Class A Common Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $211,000,000, in a private placement (the “PIPE”). As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Spring Valley on March 30, 2022, Spring Valley entered into an additional subscription agreement, dated March 29, 2022 (the “SailingStone Subscription Agreement”), with SailingStone Global Natural Resources Fund (“SailingStone”), pursuant to which SailingStone agreed to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Spring Valley Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 (the “SailingStone PIPE Investment”).

The total anticipated proceeds from the PIPE Investment, after taking into account the Initial PIPE Investment, the SailingStone PIPE Investment and the Additional PIPE Investment, is $235,000,000.

The closing of the Additional Subscription Agreement is conditioned upon, among other things, customary closing conditions and the consummation of the Proposed Transactions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Managers of NuScale Power, LLC:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NuScale Power, LLC (the Company) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related statements of operations, mezzanine equity and members’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has recurring losses from operations, has negative operating cash flows, and has stated that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

1. The Company

Organization

NuScale Power, LLC (“NuScale” or the “Company”), is a limited liability company organized in the State of Oregon in 2011. The Company is majority owned by Fluor Enterprises, Inc., a subsidiary of Fluor Corporation.

Operations

The Company is commercializing a modular, scalable 77 megawatt (gross) electric Light Water Reactor nuclear power plant using exclusive rights to a nuclear power plant design obtained from Oregon State University (“OSU”). The Company also uses the test facility at OSU through a technology transfer agreement. The following represents key milestones in the development of this technology:

● December 2016: DCA completed

● January 2017: DCA submitted to the NRC

● March 2017: DCA accepted for review by the NRC

● August 2020: NRC issued the Final Safety Evaluation Report (“FSER”)

The FSER represents the NRC’s completion of its technical review and approval of the NuScale SMR design. With this final phase of NuScale’s DCA now complete, customers may proceed with plans to develop NuScale power plants with the understanding that the NRC has approved the safety aspects of the NuScale design.

All the Company’s operations and long-lived assets were attributable to operations in the United States as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

U.S. Department of Energy Funding

Beginning in 2014, the U.S. DOE has provided critical funding to NuScale through a series of cooperative agreements which support ongoing commercialization activities. The agreements which were active during 2021 and 2020 are discussed below.

U.S. Department of Energy Phase Two NuScale SMR First of a kind (“FOAK”) Nuclear Demonstration Readiness Project (Award 8820)

The DOE issued the second phase of the “SMR FOAK Nuclear Demonstration Readiness Project” (“Award 8820”) in October 2018. The activities under this award were required to ensure both design completion and supply chain readiness to meet a commercial operation date of 2026 for the first NuScale plant. The award initially consisted of NuScale cost share of $40,000 (50%) and the government cost share of $40,000 (50%). However, in December 2018, the award was revised to reduce the Company’s cost share from 50% to 46%. This increased the amount the Company is eligible to receive under the award to $43,200. Cumulative cash received through December 31, 2021 totaled $41,854 with the remainder obligated and included in accounts receivable presented on the balance sheet. The period of performance under Award 8820 concluded in September 2019.

U.S. Department of Energy NuScale SMR FOAK Nuclear Demonstration Readiness Project Completion (Award 8928)

In February 2020, the Company was awarded up to $350,000 under “SMR FOAK Nuclear Demonstration Readiness Project Completion” (“Award 8928”). This program is expected to complete all remaining licensing activities, first-of-a-kind engineering, supply chain development, testing and other required activities to have the NuScale SMR ready to enable timely client project deployment. The award consisted of NuScale cost share of $350,000 (50%) and the government cost share of $350,000 (50%). NuScale was permitted to request reimbursement of 73% of its program costs from August 2019 through September 2020. Because the government’s cost share of total program funds must be no more than 50% over the duration of the 5 year award, 23% of the reimbursement requests made for the August 2019 through September 2020 costs were deferred and recognized as a liability in the accompanying balance sheet. At December 31, 2021, $10,237 of deferred DOE cost share is netted in related DOE accounts receivable due to a right of offset. No amounts were eligible to be offset at December 31, 2020. These deferred reimbursement costs will be recognized as future reimbursement requests are made at less than 50%. Cumulative cash received through December 31, 2021 was $158,317, while $12,183 is still obligated under the current budget period, $1,972 of which is included in accounts receivable.

U.S. Department of Energy Carbon Free Power Project Award (Award 8369)

In April 2015, the Company was awarded an Assistance Agreement, “Site Permitting and Licensing of the NuScale Small Modular Reactor”. Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems was identified as a sub-recipient under the Carbon Free Power Project (“CFPP”) award. UAMPS is considering developing, constructing and owning a 462 MWe (gross) nuclear powered energy center using NuScale’s SMR technology. The CFPP award consisted of government cost share of $16,617 (50%) and NuScale and UAMPS cost share of $16,617 (50%) to facilitate site permitting and related licensing activities. In January 2019 the DOE renewed the award extending the period of performance through December 2023 and increasing the total amount of the award to $126,694. The cost sharing percentages remained at government cost share of 50% and NuScale and UAMPS cost share of 50% of the total award. This award was later amended to consist of government cost share of $8,250 (50%) and NuScale and UAMPS cost share of $8,250 (50%). Cumulative cash received through December 31, 2021 was $7,451, with an additional $70 obligated and included in accounts receivable. The remaining $729 was paid by the DOE to a third party, in accordance with the Award, for services provided. The period of performance under this award ended October 31, 2021 due to UAMPS applying as prime recipient for Award 8935. NuScale has no cost share under Award 8935.

Subsequently, an “Agreement for a Cost Sharing Option Associated with the Siting and Licensing of a Small Modular Reactor” and a “Subaward Agreement between the Company and UAMPS” were executed in December 2015. These agreements were subsequently amended various times. Under these amended agreements, NuScale will reimburse UAMPS 25% of the UAMPS project costs associated with the CFPP award up to a maximum of $4,100.

Under the amended agreements, when UAMPS submits the combined construction and operating license application, it will pay NuScale an amount equal to the sum of all CFPP project costs reimbursed by NuScale. Upon such payment, UAMPS will assume full ownership interest in all project assets free of any claim by NuScale.

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur net losses and negative operating cash flow. Management expects that future operating losses and negative operating cash flows may increase from historical levels because of additional costs and expenses related to the development of technology and the

(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

development of market and strategic relationships with other businesses. Consequently, the Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional sources of funding to support its ongoing operations.

DOE Award 8928 was issued in February 2020. Total cash received under this award during 2021 and 2020 was $57,817 and $100,500, respectively. However, no formal assurances of additional obligations from the DOE can be provided. In addition, the Company received proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred units of $192,500 during 2021 and is pursuing a variety of additional funding sources to support the continuation of operations, including a planned merger with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. While the Company has historically been successful in obtaining the capital necessary to support its operations, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure additional equity capital or other financing. As a result, management has concluded there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity

The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts in developing its product. It has raised $753,306 of new equity financing, primarily from Fluor, since 2011.

Beginning in 2011, Fluor and the Company entered into at the money option agreements whereby Fluor has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase Convertible Preferred Units ("CPUs"). Under these agreements, Fluor invested $10,000 to purchase 5,208 CPUs at $1.92 in 2020. No investments were made in 2021. All agreements are expired and none were outstanding at December 31, 2021 and 2020.

During 2021 and 2020 the Company received proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred units of $192,500 and $8,500, respectively. See footnote 9 for further description.

Merger with Spring Valley

In December 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (“Spring Valley”) and Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger (such surviving entity, the “Surviving Company”), Spring Valley will be renamed NuScale Power Corporation, and the Company will continue to be held as a wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in an “Up-C” structure.

In connection with the Merger, each CPU of the Company will be converted into a certain number of common units, and each NuScale common unit will receive a certain number of Surviving Company Class B common units and non-economic voting shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock. Holders of Surviving Company Class B common units will have the right to exchange each Surviving Company Class B common unit they hold, together with the cancelation for no consideration of one share of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock, for one share of NuScale Power Corporation Class A common stock (or cash), subject to certain restrictions.

The convertible loan held by Fluor, identified in the balance sheet as convertible note payable, will be converted into NuScale common units (which will then receive Surviving Company Class B common units and non-economic voting shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock).

In connection with the Merger Agreement, Spring Valley also entered into subscription agreements with investors to purchase shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class A common stock for $211,000. These investments are contingent on the closing of the Merger. Additionally, $30,000 of these investments were contingent on the entry into definitive documents between the investor, Fluor Corporation and NuScale with respect to certain ancillary commercial arrangements, which were satisfied in February 2022.

The Merger is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. NuScale believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions made when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, in-process research and development, asset valuations, equity-based compensation and contingencies are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as amounts reported on the statements of operations during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits at financial institutions and short-term, highly liquid investments that satisfy the definition of cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes reimbursement requests outstanding from the DOE awards and are recognized as eligible costs are incurred. At December 31, 2021, accounts receivable are presented net of $10,237 of related deferred DOE cost share liabilities that have the right of offset. No amounts were eligible to be offset at December 31, 2020. Reimbursement under the awards are included in Department of Energy Cost Share in the Statement of Operations.

In-process Research and Development (“IPR&D”)

IPR&D represents incomplete research and development projects that had not reached technological feasibility as of their acquisition date in 2011. Due to the nature of IPR&D, the expected life is indefinite and it will be evaluated periodically for attainment of technological feasibility or impairment. Technological feasibility is established when an enterprise has completed all planning, designing, coding and testing activities that are necessary to establish that a product can be produced to meet its design specifications including functions, features and technical performance requirements. IPR&D was concluded to include both fundamental and defensive technologies comprised of OSU licensed and NuScale owned patented and unpatented technology and trade secrets. Such technologies are designed to work together in the operation of a nuclear power module.

The value assigned to IPR&D was determined by considering the Company’s development plan, estimating costs to develop the IPR&D into a commercially viable product, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the project when completed and discounting the net cash flows using a discount rate of 20% to their present value. The IPR&D is anticipated to begin generating cash flows in 2026 and is expected to contribute to all of the Company’s revenues for the foreseeable future after being placed in service.

F-50

NuScale Power, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

IPR&D is amortized over its estimated useful life once technological feasibility is reached. As the Company has not yet completed all designing, coding and testing activities, management has determined that technological feasibility has not yet been reached.

We test IPR&D for impairment at least annually, (in the fourth quarter) or more frequently if we determine an event or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that it is impaired, until such time as the research and development efforts are completed or abandoned. If the research and development efforts are abandoned, the related costs will be written off in the period of such determination. We may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not the fair value of the IPR&D is less than the carrying value and if so, we perform a quantitative test. The Company determines fair value by discounting projected future cash flows of the IPR&D asset. Any impairment loss is recognized in our results of operations. We performed our annual impairment test of the IPR&D by performing a qualitative assessment and did not identify any indicators of impairment.

Revenue Recognition

In addition to advancing the commercialization of its SMR, the Company provides engineering services to customers.

The Company recognizes fixed price contract revenue with multiple performance obligations as each obligation is completed. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the stand-alone selling price of each distinct service in the contract. Revenue recognized on contracts that have not been billed to customers is classified as a current asset under accounts receivable on the balance sheet. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized are classified as a current liability under deferred revenue.

The Company recognizes time and material contracts revenue over time, matching continuous transfer of control to the customer. The Company accounts for these contracts as a single performance obligation and recognizes revenue using the percentage-of-completion method, based primarily on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. The percentage-of-completion method (an input method) is the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance because it directly measures the value of the services transferred to the customer. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client.

The Company excludes from its measurement of transaction prices all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are both (i) imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and (ii) collected from customers. Accordingly, such tax amounts are not included as a component of revenue or cost of sales.

Customer payments on contracts are typically due within 30 days of billing, depending on the contract.

The Company generally provides limited warranties for work performed under its engineering contracts. The warranty periods typically extend for a limited duration following substantial completion of the Company’s work on a project. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy, which prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach).

F-51

NuScale Power, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

The levels of hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;

Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most stringent level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amount of certain financial instruments, including prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible note payable approximates fair value due to their short maturities.

Property, Plant and Equipment

All additions, including betterments to existing facilities, are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the assets and the related accumulated depreciation is derecognized with any gain or loss recorded in the year of disposition.

Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over useful lives of seven years. Computer software is depreciated over useful lives of three to five years. Office and computer equipment is depreciated over useful lives of five years. Test equipment is depreciated over useful lives of five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the remaining term of the associated lease.

Internal Use Software

The costs associated with developing, purchasing or otherwise acquiring software for internal use are capitalized and amortized over the expected useful life of three years. During 2021 and 2020, software purchased from third parties and capitalized (including items in development and not yet in service) was $2,115 and $3,307, respectively.

Leases

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating leases. This classification dictates whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has only operating leases.

The Company’s right-of-use assets relate to office facilities, some of which include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term up to 5 years. The exercise of the lease renewal is at the Company’s discretion. Renewal periods are included in the expected lease term if they are reasonably certain of being exercised by the Company. None of the Company’s lease agreements contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

F-52

NuScale Power, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

Long-term leases (leases with initial terms greater than 12 months) are capitalized at the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease when the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.

Short-term leases (leases with an initial term of 12 months or less or leases that are cancelable by the lessee and lessor without significant penalties) are not capitalized but are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s short-term leases relate to office facilities or office equipment.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets including primarily property and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. If this review indicates that the carrying amount will not be recoverable, as determined based on comparing the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying amount, impairment is measured by comparing the carrying amount to fair value. No impairment charges were incurred for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of a business acquired in a purchase business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. We evaluate goodwill for impairment at least annually (in the fourth quarter), or more frequently if we determine an event or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that it is impaired. We may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value and if so, we perform a quantitative test. Should the quantitative test be used, we compare the carrying value of net assets to the estimated fair value of the Company, as we have one reporting unit. If the carrying value of the Company exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss (limited to the total amount of goodwill) is recognized in our results of operations. We completed our annual goodwill impairment evaluation using a qualitative assessment, resulting in no impairment.

Mezzanine Equity

The Company has issued equity units that feature certain redemption rights at the option of the holder and upon an event outside the control of the Company. Accordingly, those units are presented as mezzanine equity, outside of members’ equity at their issuance date fair value. The Company assesses whether the equity units have become redeemable or the probability that the equity units will become redeemable in determining whether to record subsequent changes to fair value.

Equity-Based Compensation

Equity-based compensation is measured using a fair value-based method for all equity-based awards. The cost of awarded equity instruments is recognized based on each instrument’s grant-date fair value over the period during which the grantee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The straight-line recognition method is used for awards subject to graded vesting based only on a service condition. The determination of fair value requires significant judgment and the use of estimates, particularly with regard to Black-Scholes assumptions such as stock price volatility and expected option lives to value equity-based compensation. Equity-based compensation is recorded as both a general and administrative (“G&A”) expense and other expense in the statements of operations.

Segment Information

The Company has determined that its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) are its chief operating decision makers (“CODMs”). The CODMs review financial

information presented for purposes of assessing performance and making decisions on how to allocate resources at the overall company level. The Company has determined that it currently operates in a single segment, though it will periodically revisit the information used by its CODMs to allocate resources and to manage the operations as it nears commercialization and deployment of its NPMs.

Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company that is treated as a partnership for tax purposes with each of the members accounting for their share of the tax attributes and liabilities. Accordingly, there are no current or deferred income tax amounts recorded in these financial statements. Additionally, there are no tax uncertainties and no years which are open for examination by tax authorities.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses represent costs incurred for designing and engineering products, including the costs of developing design tools. All research and development costs related to product development are expensed as incurred.

5. Intangible Assets, Redeemable Common Units and Mezzanine Equity

In 2007, NuScale entered into a patent license agreement (the “Agreement”) with OSU, which granted the Company a worldwide, exclusive license under three patents. In 2015, NuScale entered into a “Purchase, Sale and License Agreement” (“PLA”) with OSU, whereby OSU sold and assigned to NuScale certain patent and intellectual property rights, including the patent intellectual property rights that OSU formerly exclusively and non-exclusively licensed to NuScale under the Agreement; and granted NuScale a license to use, reproduce, prepare derivative works of, distribute, transmit, publicly perform, and publicly display the testing data.

As consideration for the PLA, NuScale issued a cash payment of $1,000 upon execution of the agreement as well as on-going $25 quarterly cash payments continuing until the earlier of (i) such time as NuScale completes the sale of its first commercial-scale nuclear module (exclusive of modules designated to validate the operability of a NuScale module) to a commercial customer or (ii) expiration of the term of the last valid claim under the assigned patents to expire. Additionally, NuScale will make royalty payments to OSU on the sale of NuScale’s first and subsequent commercial-scale nuclear modules to a commercial customer as follows:

(i) 0.25% of the then current commercial price paid to NuScale for the first twenty-four (24) NuScale modules sold to commercial customers.

(ii) 0.15% of the then current commercial price paid to NuScale for the next twelve (12) NuScale modules sold to commercial customers.

Under the Agreement, the Company granted OSU 2,750 common units valued at a weighted average price per unit of $0.25 determined on their respective grant date. Additionally, under the PLA, NuScale granted OSU 3,250 common units valued at $0.45 per unit on the grant date, resulting (in addition to the cash payment of $1,000) in a value assigned to the patents of $2,462 which is being amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining life of the patents which range from 2028 to 2034. The gross carrying amount of the patents, and the associated accumulated amortization was $2,462 and $1,226, respectively, at December 31, 2021 and $2,462 and $1,049, respectively, at December 31, 2020. Estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years is expected to be $178 per year.

OSU’s common units feature certain redemption rights at the option of the holder and upon an event outside the control of the Company. The redemption right is only available to OSU if the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

F-55

NuScale Power, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

issues a written determination that the ownership of these common units creates a conflict of interest. It is not probable that this event, which is outside the control of the Company, will occur. Accordingly, the 6,000 OSU common units subject to possible redemption are presented as mezzanine equity, outside of members’ equity. The Company has not adjusted the carrying value of the outstanding common units subject to the redemption feature because it is not probable the redemption right will be exercised.

Commencing on the effective date of the agreement and continuing until such time as NuScale completes the sale of its first commercial-scale nuclear module to a commercial customer, OSU shall have the right, but not the obligation, to sell all of its then current common share holdings in NuScale Holdings and all of its then current common units in NuScale (collectively the “NuScale Shares”) to NuScale if, but only if, the NRC issues a written determination that : (a) OSU’s ownership of the NuScale Shares creates a conflict of interest for OSU; and (b) OSU must divest the entirety of such NuScale Shares in order to continue performing work on NuScale’s behalf for certification of the NuScale reactor design. In the event OSU exercises such option, the parties shall enter into a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each party, pursuant to which OSU would agree to sell and NuScale would agree to purchase all of the NuScale Shares for a price equal to the then current market value of the NuScale Shares as determined by a valuation firm reasonably acceptable to both OSU and NuScale.

Payments made to OSU for research and testing were $893 and $1,104 for years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amounts payable to OSU included in accounts payable and accrued expenses were $150 and $186 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

6. Notes Payable

Convertible Note Payable

In September 2011, NuScale signed a convertible loan agreement with Fluor in the amount of $10,281 with a maturity date of September 30, 2013. The loan has been extended annually and is due on June 30, 2022. The debt is convertible into NuScale convertible preferred units at Fluor’s option at the original issue price per unit of the Company’s next round of financing securities amounting to no less than $16,000.

At December 31, 2021, the convertible debt outstanding was $14,041, comprised of the original borrowing of $11,331 less the amortized premium of $1,050 plus accrued interest of $3,760.

Other Notes Payable

In September and October 2020, NuScale signed loan agreements (“2020 Notes”) with Fluor in the aggregate amount of $20,000. NuScale was required to pay all unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the earlier of June 30, 2021 or the date by which the Company raised an aggregate of $40,000 or greater from the sale of preferred equity to one or more investors.

In January 2021, NuScale signed a Line of Credit Promissory Note (“LOC”) with Fluor allowing the Company to borrow funds in a series of draws up to a total principal sum of $30,000. NuScale was required to pay all unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the earlier of August 31, 2021 or the date by which the Company raised an aggregate of $40,000 or greater from the sale of preferred equity to one or more investors. This agreement was later extended through December 31, 2021.

In April 2021, the Company used a portion of the proceeds received from a preferred units purchase agreement to pay all outstanding principal and interest and retire the 2020 Notes.

Under the provisions of the 401(k) Plan, the Company matches the employees’ contributions for the first 3% of compensation and matches 50% of the employees’ contributions for the next 2% of compensation. The expense for the 401(k) Plan was $1,878 and $1,813 for 2021 and 2020, respectively.

8. Members’ Equity

The Board of Managers consists of six Managers and oversees the business and affairs of the Company. CPU holders have the right to designate and elect the majority of the Managers. Holders of CPUs have one vote per unit on matters as specified in the LLC’s Operating Agreement dated September 30, 2011, as amended (the “Operating Agreement”).

Limitations of Liability

A member’s liability is limited by such member’s share of the Company’s assets. However, the member is required to return to the Company any distribution made to it in clear and manifest accounting or similar error.

Convertible Preferred Units

The LLC Agreement authorizes the Company to issue CPUs, which may be divided into one or more types, classes or series.

During 2021 and 2020, the Company entered into a Preferred Units Purchase Agreement (or an amendment to an existing agreement) with the following investors:

specific scope of supply at commercial terms to be determined in the future. No additional value was assigned to the respective BCAs.

The Company has certain agreements to pay for services rendered through the issuance of CPUs. During 2021 the Company issued 32 CPUs for services rendered valued at $65 under these agreements. The Company issued 206 CPUs for services rendered valued at $378 under these agreements during 2020.

There were 633,261 and 542,729 CPUs issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Conversion

Each CPU may be converted, at the option of the member holding such CPU, at any time, into the number of common units equal to the Common Equivalent Ratio in effect at the time of conversion. The Common Equivalent Ratio means the Convertible Preferred Original Issue Price of each series divided by the Common Equivalent Price then in effect.

	Convertible Preferred		Common Equivalent		Common Equivalent		Convertible Preferred
Series	Original Issue Price		Issue Price		Ratio		Units Issued
A	$	1.00	$	1.00	100	%	336,826
A‑1	$	1.31	$	1.31	100	%	67,674
A‑2	$	1.42	$	1.42	100	%	68,349
A‑3	$	1.59	$	1.59	100	%	60,091
A‑4	$	1.92	$	1.92	100	%	30,903
A‑5	$	2.19	$	2.19	100	%	69,418

Voting

Holders of CPUs have voting rights equivalent to the number of CPUs held multiplied by the Common Equivalent Ratio, as defined, which was set at 100% at the time of the Company’s recapitalization in 2011.

Preferred Return

The CPUs have a 10.0% cumulative preferred return per year compounded quarterly on the unreturned preferred capital, beginning on the date such CPU was issued. The accumulated preferred return as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 not reflected in the statement of members’ equity was $550,942 and $429,791, respectively.

Distributions

The Board of Managers may direct the Company to make distributions. Such distributions are to be made in the following order:

● CPU holders receive their unpaid 10% cumulative preferred return until reduced to zero,

● CPU holders receive their aggregate unreturned preferred capital with respect to their CPUs held until reduced to zero,

● Holders of common units receive amounts equal to that distributed to CPU holders on an as-converted basis, and

F-58

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

● Holders of CPU and common units receive their Common Participating Interests, as defined in the LLC Agreement.

Common Units

The LLC Agreement authorizes the Company to issue common units. Each common unit is entitled to one vote.

During 2021 and 2020, options to purchase 3,483 and 105 common units were exercised resulting in proceeds of $748 and $43, respectively.

During 2021 and 2020 the Company repurchased 15 and 55 common units, respectively, from previously terminated employees for the original price of $4 and $22 and a premium of $13 and $27, respectively.

The LLC Agreement authorizes the Company to issue common units for purposes of equity compensation. During 2021, the board of managers increased the number of common units reserved under the Company’s equity incentive plan to 96,800. As of December 31, 2021 there were 1,525 options available to issue for the purchase of common units.

9. Equity-Based Compensation

Unit Option Plan

The NuScale Power, LLC 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was approved in 2011 by the Board of Managers and amended (the “Amendment”) at various times.

Unit options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair value of the Company’s common units at the date of grant. Unit options granted generally become exercisable 25% after one year of service and on a monthly basis over three years of service thereafter. In February 2014, the Board of Managers approved amendments to the Company’s “Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan” and unit option agreements. The amendments generally allow terminated and retiring employees with over five years of service to the Company an extended period of time, up to the expiration of the option, during which to exercise their fully vested options when employment ceases.

The following table summarizes the activity relating to the Plan for the year ended December 31, 2021:

	Weighted Average
Unit Options	Number of Units	Exercise Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2020	74,824	$	0.49
Granted	19,362		1.11
Exercised	(3,483)		0.21
Forfeited	(653)		0.99
Expired	(1,172)		0.45
Outstanding at December 31, 2021	88,878		0.63
Exercisable at December 31, 2021	75,506		0.55

The total fair value of options that vested during 2021 and 2020 was $6,291 and $3,673, respectively. These options had no intrinsic value. The weighted average remaining contractual term for all options outstanding at December 31, 2021 was 5.64 years and the remaining weighted average contractual term of options exercisable was 5.01 years.

The total compensation expense recognized for common unit options vested in 2021 and 2020 was $6,441 and $3,718, respectively. This includes G&A expense of $3,257 and other expense of $3,184 in 2021 and $3,718 of G&A expense in 2020. The remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested awards as of December 31,

F-59

NuScale Power, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

2021 was $8,979. The Company expects to recognize this compensation expense over the weighted average remaining recognition period of 2.48 years, subject to forfeitures that may occur during that period.

The Company measures the fair value of each unit option grant at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were used in determining the fair value of options granted:

	2021	2020
Risk-free interest rate	0.62% – 1.31%	0.37% – 0.59%
Expected dividend yield	NA	NA
Expected option life	6.25 years	6.25 years
Expected price volatility	64.60% – 73.98%	64.6% – 69.21%

The Company estimates the expected term of options granted based on historical experience and expectations. The Company uses the treasury yield curve rates for the risk-free interest rate in the option valuation model with maturities similar to the expected term of the options. Volatility is determined by reference to the actual volatility of several publicly traded companies that are similar to the Company in its industry sector. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the option valuation model. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. All equity-based payment awards are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $0.72 and $0.56, respectively.

Common Unit Appreciation Rights

In April 2013, the Company granted its Chief Executive Officer 1,000 common unit appreciation rights (“UARs”). The UARs vested one-third each year on the anniversary of the grant date. Upon exercise of a UAR, the holder will receive common units equal to the excess of the fair value of the common units over the strike price of $0.11 at the grant date multiplied by the number of rights exercised and divided by the fair value of the common unit upon exercise.

The Company measured the fair value of each UAR at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in the Black Scholes model are the same as those utilized in determining the fair value of options to purchase common units outlined above. The weighted average fair value of UARs granted was $0.06.

In February 2022, the Board of Managers approved a $1,540 cash payment in lieu of equity issuance related to the UARs, which triggered recognition of $1,480 of equity-based compensation expense.

10. Related Party Transactions

From time to time, the Company enters into strategic agreements with Fluor, whereby Fluor or NuScale perform services for one another. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, NuScale incurred expenses of $18,113 and $4,452, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, NuScale owes Fluor, as accounts payable, amounts totaling $3,731 and $1,949, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, NuScale earned revenue of $1,553 and $0, respectively.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

In the regular course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims incidental to the normal course of business. Management does not believe that resolution of any of these matters will materially affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

1.Nature of Business

Organization and Operations

NuScale Power, LLC (“NuScale” or the “Company”), is a limited liability company organized in the State of Oregon in June 2011. The Company is majority owned by Fluor Enterprises, Inc., a subsidiary of Fluor Corporation.

The Company is commercializing a modular, scalable 77 megawatt electric (gross) Light Water Reactor nuclear power plant using exclusive rights to a nuclear power plant design obtained from Oregon State University.

2.Basis of Presentation

The Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes do not include footnotes and certain financial information normally presented annually under U.S. GAAP, and therefore should be read in conjunction with our 2021 audited financial statements and the notes thereto. Accounting measures at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. Although such estimates are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information available, our reported results of operations may not necessarily be indicative of results that we expect for the full year.

The financial statements contained herein are unaudited. In management’s opinion, they contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are necessary to present fairly our financial position and our operating results as of and for the interim periods presented.

3.Merger with Spring Valley

In December 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (“Spring Valley”) and Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger (the “Surviving Company”), Spring Valley will be renamed NuScale Power Corporation, and the Company will continue to be held as a wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in an “Up-C” structure.

In connection with the Merger, each Convertible Preferred Unit (“CPU”) of the Company will be converted into a certain number of common units, and each NuScale common unit will receive a certain number of Surviving Company Class B common units and non-economic voting shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock. Holders of Surviving Company Class B common units will have the right to exchange each Surviving Company Class B common unit they hold, together with the cancellation for no consideration of one share of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock, for one share of NuScale Power Corporation Class A common stock (or cash), subject to certain restrictions.

Further, in connection with the Merger Agreement, Spring Valley also entered into subscription agreements with investors to purchase shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class A common stock for $211,000. These investments are contingent on the closing of the Merger. Additionally, $30,000 of these investments were contingent on the entry into definitive documents between the investor, Fluor Corporation and NuScale with respect to certain ancillary commercial arrangements, which were satisfied in February 2022.

Finally, in connection with the Merger, the convertible loan held by Fluor, identified in the balance sheet as convertible note payable, will be converted into NuScale common units (which will then receive Surviving Company common units and non-economic voting shares of NuScale Power Corporation Class B common stock).

Liquidity

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur net losses and negative operating cash flow. Management expects that future operating losses and negative operating cash flows may increase from historical levels because of additional costs and expenses related to the development of technology and the development of market and strategic relationships with other businesses. However, as noted in the subsequent events footnote, on May 2, 2022 the merger was consummated, resulting in the receipt of $341,000 in cash. The Company believes that based on its current level of operating expenses and its currently available cash resources, it will have sufficient funds available to cover operating cash needs through the twelve month period from the financial statement reporting date. As a result of this merger, management has concluded that there is no substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements.

4.Fair Value Measurement

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy, which prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach).

The levels of hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;

Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most stringent level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amount of certain financial instruments, including prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible notes payable approximates fair value due to their short maturities.

5.Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes reimbursement requests outstanding from the DOE awards and are recognized as eligible costs are incurred. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accounts receivable are presented net of $10,237 of related deferred DOE cost share liabilities that have the right of offset. Reimbursement under the awards are included in Department of Energy Cost Share in the Statement of Operations.

7.Notes Payable

Convertible Note Payable

In September 2011, NuScale entered into a convertible loan agreement with Fluor in the amount of $10,281 with a maturity date of September 30, 2013. The loan has been extended annually and is now due on June 30, 2022. The debt is convertible at Fluor’s option at the original issue price per unit of the Company’s next round of financing securities amounting to no less than $16,000.

At March 31, 2022, the convertible debt outstanding was $14,147, comprised of the original borrowing of $11,331 less the amortized premium of $1,050 plus accrued interest of $3,866.

In April 2022, Fluor elected to convert all of their outstanding debt, totaling $14,181, to 8,258 common units at a price per unit of $9.91, which is equivalent to the PIPE price per unit received in conjunction with the Merger agreement described in footnote 3.

Other Notes Payable

In January, 2021, NuScale signed a Line of Credit Promissory Note with Fluor in the amount of $30,000. Fluor advanced the Company $27,200 under this agreement all of which was repaid in June, 2021.

8.Employee Benefits

401(k) Plan

The Company sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) Plan with contributions to be made at the sole discretion of the management. Under the provisions of the 401(k) Plan, the Company matches the employees’ contributions for the first 3% of compensation and matches 50% of the employees’ contributions for the next 2% of compensation. The expense recorded for the 401(k) Plan was $672 and $425 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

9.Mezzanine and Members’ Equity

Convertible Preferred Units

The Board of Managers consists of six Managers and oversees the business and affairs of the Company. CPU holders have the right to designate and elect the majority of the Managers. Holders of CPUs have one vote per unit on matters as specified in the LLC’s Operating Agreement dated September 30, 2011, as amended (the “Operating Agreement”).

The Company entered into a Preferred Units Purchase Agreement with JGC Holdings Corporation (“JGC”) in March 2021 for $40,000, or $1.92 per CPU. In addition to, and in connection with this agreement, the Company entered into a Business Collaboration Agreement (“BCA”) with JGC whereby the Company has committed to award JGC a specific scope of supply at commercial terms to be determined in the future. No additional value was assigned to the BCA.

Common Units

The Company’s common units reported in mezzanine equity feature certain redemption rights at the option of the holder and upon an event outside the control of the Company. The redemption right is only available to the holders of the common units if the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission issues a written determination that the ownership of these common units creates a conflict of interest. It is not probable that this event, which is outside our control, will occur.

Accordingly, the 6,000 common units subject to possible redemption is presented as mezzanine equity, outside of members’ equity. The Company has not adjusted the carrying value of these common units subject to the redemption feature because it is not probable the redemption right will be exercised.

The LLC Agreement authorizes the Company to issue 96,800 common units for purposes of equity compensation. As of March 31, 2022, there were 475 unit options available to issue.

10.Equity-Based Compensation

Unit options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common units at the date of grant.

The following table summarizes the activity relating to the Plan:

	Number of	Weighted Average
Unit Options	Units	Exercise Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2021	88,878	$	0.63
Granted	1,201		1.65
Exercised	(2,928)		0.16
Forfeited	(92)		1.23
Expired	(59)		0.50
Outstanding at March 31, 2022	87,000		0.66
Exercisable at March 31, 2022	73,817		0.57

The total compensation expense recognized for common unit options vested during three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $1,021 and $3,122, respectively. This includes G&A expense of $444 and other expense of $577 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $1,659 of G&A expense and $1,463 in other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested awards as of March 31, 2022 was $9,194. The Company expects to recognize this compensation expense over the weighted average remaining recognition period of 2.44 years, subject to forfeitures that may occur during that period.

F-69

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

(in thousands, except per unit amounts)

The Company measures the fair value of each unit option grant at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $1.09. The following assumptions were used in determining the fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31:

	2022
Risk-free interest rate	1.44	%
Expected dividend yield	NA
Expected option life	6.25	years
Expected price volatility	73.98	%

Common Unit Appreciation Rights

In April 2013, the Company granted its Chief Executive Officer 1,000 common unit appreciation rights (“UARs”). The UARs vested one-third each year on the anniversary of the grant date. Upon exercise of a UAR, the holder will receive common units equal to the excess of the fair value of the common units over the strike price of $0.11 at the grant date multiplied by the number of rights exercised and divided by the fair value of the common unit upon exercise.

The Company measured the fair value of each UAR at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in the Black Scholes model are the same as those utilized in determining the fair value of options to purchase common units outlined above. The weighted average fair value of UARs granted was $0.06.

In February 2022, the Board of Managers approved a $1,540 cash payment (included in other accrued liabilities on the Condensed Balance Sheet) in lieu of equity issuance related to the UARs, which triggered recognition of $1,490 of equity-based compensation expense.

11.Related Party Transactions

From time to time, the Company enters into strategic agreements with Fluor, whereby Fluor or NuScale perform services for one another. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, NuScale incurred expenses of $3,601 and $3,193, respectively, related to such arrangements. As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, NuScale owes Fluor, as accounts payable, amounts totaling $2,100 and $1,021, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, NuScale earned revenue of $1,561 and $441, respectively.

12.Commitments and Contingencies

In the regular course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims incidental to the normal course of business. Management does not believe that resolution of any of these matters will materially affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In conjunction with Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (“UAMPS”) Award 8935, we entered into a Development Cost Reimbursement Agreement (“DCRA”), pursuant to which we are developing the NRC license application and performing other site licensing and development activities. Under the DCRA, we may be obligated to refund to UAMPS a percentage of its net development costs up to a specified cap, which vary based on the stage of project development, if certain performance criteria are not met. The maximum reimbursement based on the current stage of project development is $57,000. As of March 31, 2022 the net development costs incurred by UAMPS totaled $10,077. We are currently in compliance and expect to remain in compliance with all related performance criteria.

13.Subsequent Events

On May 2, 2022, the Merger Agreement and Merger (collectively the “Transaction”) described in footnote 3 was completed, resulting in NuScale surviving the merger and Spring Valley changing its name to NuScale Power Corporation. NuScale will continue to be held as a wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in an “Up-C” structure. The Transaction resulted in

NuScale receiving cash in the amount of $341,000, consisting of $235,000 in PIPE funding and $145,300 in cash in trust, partially offset by transaction costs of $39,300.

An evaluation of subsequent events has been performed through May 12, 2022, the date that the financial statements were issued, for purposes of disclosure and recognition.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145(a) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue, or matter as to which he or she shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court shall deem proper.

Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in Section 145(a) or (b) of the DGCL, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 of the DGCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and the indemnification provided for by Section 145 of the DGCL shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors, and administrators. Section 145(g) of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and

II-1

incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Additionally, the registrant’s certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and bylaws (the “Bylaws”) limit the liability of the registrant’s directors to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, and provide that the registrant will indemnify its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

The registrant has entered into and expects to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify its directors, executive officers, and other employees as determined by its board of directors. Under the terms of such indemnification agreements, the registrant is required to indemnify each of its directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the state of Delaware, if the basis of the indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was the registrant’s director or officer or was serving at the registrant’s request in an official capacity for another entity. The registrant must indemnify its officers and directors against all reasonable fees, expenses, charges, and other costs of any type or nature whatsoever, including any and all expenses and obligations paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness, or participate in any completed, actual, pending, or threatened action, suit, claim, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, or establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification under the indemnification agreement. The indemnification agreements also require the registrant, if so requested, to advance all reasonable fees, expenses, charges, and other costs that such director or officer incurred; provided that such person will return any such advance if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification by the registrant. Any claims for indemnification by the registrant’s directors and officers may reduce its available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against the registrant and may reduce the amount of money available to the registrant.

The registrant also maintains a general liability insurance policy, which covers certain liabilities of directors and officers of the registrant arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

The following list sets forth information as to all of the registrant’s securities sold in the last three years which were not registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The descriptions of these issuances are historical and have not been adjusted to give effect to the Transactions. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Item 15 have the meaning given to them in the prospectus which forms a part of this registration statement.

On August 21, 2020, prior to the closing of Spring Valley’s Initial Public Offering (“IPO”), Spring Valley issued 7,187,500 Spring Valley Class B ordinary shares (“Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000. On September 30, 2020, the Sponsor transferred 40,000 Founder Shares to each of Debora Frodl, Richard Thompson and Patrick Wood, III, Spring Valley’s independent director nominees. On October 22, 2020, the Sponsor irrevocably surrendered to Spring Valley for cancellation and for no consideration 1,437,500 Founder Shares resulting in 5,750,000 Founder Shares outstanding. On November 18, 2020, Spring Valley entered into commitment letter agreements with certain investors pursuant to which such investors (i) expressed an interest to purchase an aggregate of 48.6% of the units which Spring Valley sold in the IPO consisting of one Spring Valley Class A ordinary share and one half of a Spring Valley Public Warrant (“Units”) (assuming no exercise by the underwriters of the over-allotment) and (ii) agreed to purchase a non-controlling economic interest in the Sponsor Sub. On November 23, 2020, the Sponsor transferred 5,630,000 Founder Shares to the Sponsor Sub, and as a result of such transfer, the Sponsor no longer holds any Founder Shares. The registrant issued the foregoing securities in transactions not involving an underwriter and not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

On November 27, 2020, Spring Valley completed its IPO of 23,000,000 Units. Simultaneous with the closing of its IPO, Spring Valley completed the private placement of 8,900,000 Spring Valley private placement warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per

II-2

warrant generating gross proceeds of $8,900,000. The registrant issued the foregoing securities in transactions not involving an underwriter and not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

In connection with the Closing and as contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Subscription Agreements:

● On May 2, 2022, NuScale sold 23,700,002 unregistered shares of NuScale Class A Common Stock to the PIPE Investors for aggregate consideration of $235,000,000. The shares were sold in transactions not involving an underwriter and not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

● On May 3, 2022, NuScale issued 178,396,711 shares of NuScale Class B Common Stock to the Legacy NuScale Equityholders for no cash consideration. Each of the Legacy NuScale Equityholders received a number of shares of NuScale Class B Common Stock equal to the number of NuScale LLC Class B Units they received in the recapitalization of NuScale LLC, and upon the exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units for shares of NuScale Class A Common Stock as provided in the A&R NuScale LLC Agreement, a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock will be cancelled. Each share of NuScale Class B Common Stock represents one vote on matters submitted to the stockholders of NuScale and carries no economic interests. To the extent the Class B Common Stock constitutes a “security” that was offered and sold to Legacy NuScale Equityholders, the shares were sold in transactions not involving an underwriter and not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 3(a)(9) or Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

● NuScale issued shares of Class A Common Stock to former employees upon the exercise of options for aggregate consideration of $190,830.69 as follows: 47,630 shares on May 2, 2022; 2,814 shares on May 5, 2022; 5,737 shares on May 6, 2022; and 780 shares on May 9, 2022. The options, which were originally issued under the Fourth Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan of NuScale Power, LLC before the Merger, were converted into options to purchase Class A Common Stock of NuScale in the Merger. The issuances of shares upon exercise of the options were exempt under Rule 701 under the Securities Act.

(ii)to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement (notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement); and

(iii)to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

II-3

provided, however, that clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-1 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement;

(2)  that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3)  to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4)  that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use; and

(5)  that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of an undersigned registrant; and

(iv)any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
