Participating investors agreed to a prohibition on shorting the Company's common stock while such investors own warrants, ensuring alignment with Greenwave's long-term vision and reducing downward stock pressure. The transaction includes a forward-looking call feature, enabling Greenwave to redeem such warrants for cash proceeds of up to an additional $4 million as the stock price appreciates, following shareholder approval and a registration statement covering the shares being declared effective, fueling growth with minimal dilution.

The shares are being offered pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, effective since April 28, 2023.

The Company has agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants within 20 days following the closing of the offering.
