SHARE INCREASE PROPOSAL

PROPOSAL NO. 2 - SHARE INCREASE PROPOSAL

Our Board has approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to our Charter, to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 1,200,000,000 and to make a corresponding change to the number of authorized shares of capital stock. The form of the proposed Certificate of Amendment effecting such increase in the number of authorized shares (the “Share Increase Amendment”) is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A.

We currently have a total of 220,000,000 shares of capital stock authorized under our Charter, consisting of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. If the Share Increase Proposal is approved by our stockholders, our Board will be authorized, in its discretion, to file the Share Increase Amendment with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which would have the effect of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 1,200,000,000 and increasing the number of authorized shares of all classes of stock from 220,000,000 to 1,220,000,000. The number of shares of authorized preferred stock would remain unchanged.

Background and Purpose of the Proposal

Our Board has determined that it would be in the Company’s best interests and in the best interests of our stockholders to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock in order to provide the Company with the flexibility to pursue all finance and corporate opportunities involving our Common Stock, which may include private or public offerings of our equity securities, without the need to obtain additional stockholder approvals. Each additional authorized share of Common Stock would have the same rights and privileges as each share of currently authorized Common Stock.

Pursuant to the Series H-7 Purchase Agreement, we are obligated to reserve an amount of Common Stock at least equal to the sum of (i) 150% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all of the Series H-7 Preferred Stock then outstanding (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) the Series H-7 Preferred Stock are convertible at the Floor Price (as defined in the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations) and (y) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Series H-7 Preferred Stock set forth in the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations), and (ii) 150% of the maximum number of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth therein) (the “Required Reserve Amount”).

As of the Record Date, 8,541,466 shares of Common Stock were outstanding, with 70,166,378.38 shares of authorized Common Stock that are unissued and reserved for future issuance. Thus, as of the Record Date, we had 121,292,155.62 shares of authorized Common Stock remaining that were unissued and unreserved for issuance.

Given the number of shares of Common Stock that must be reserved by the Company to meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Board believes that the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to pursue finance and corporate opportunities involving the sale and/or issuance of its Common Stock. Accordingly, we are seeking to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock in order to have a sufficient number of authorized shares for such financing and corporate opportunities after satisfying the Required Reserve Amount. The Share Increase Amendment is intended to fulfill this goal.

The Board believes that unless we obtain approval to amend the Charter to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, we will be severely limited by the inability to issue additional shares pursuant to awards under our equity incentive plan or in connection with future capital raising transactions or strategic transactions. This may cause a delay in our future capital raising or other strategic transactions and may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Consequences of Not Approving this Proposal

If this proposal is not approved by our stockholders, we may not have enough shares to pursue future capital raising or other strategic transactions after (i) making payments due to the holders of the Series H-7 Preferred Stock, or upon exercise of the Warrants in the form of the applicable shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the such Series H-7 Preferred Stock (“Conversion Shares”) or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (“Warrant Shares”) and (ii) satisfying the Required Reserve Amount. If we are prevented from issuing the applicable Conversion Shares to the holder thereof due to having insufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock, in lieu of delivering such applicable Conversion Shares to such holder, we would be required to redeem such shares of Series H-7 Preferred Stock at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of applicable Conversion Shares as are unavailable for issue and (y) the greatest closing sale price of the Common Stock on any trading day during the period commencing on the date such holder delivers the applicable conversion notice to the Company and ending on the date of our issuance and payment to such holder and (ii) certain fees. If we do not have sufficient cash resources to make these payments, we may need to delay, reduce or eliminate certain research and development programs or other operations, sell some or all of our assets or merge with another entity.

Additionally, if this proposal is not approved by our stockholders, our financing alternatives will be limited by the lack of any available unissued and unreserved authorized shares of Common Stock, and stockholder value may be harmed by this limitation. In addition, our future success depends upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly-skilled employees, and if this proposal is not approved by our stockholders, the lack of any available unissued and unreserved authorized shares of Common Stock to provide future equity incentive opportunities could adversely impact our ability to achieve these goals. In short, if our stockholders do not approve this proposal, we may not be able to access the capital markets, complete corporate collaborations, partnerships or other strategic transactions, attract, retain and motivate employees, and pursue other business opportunities integral to our growth and success.

Further, unless we obtain approval for this proposal, we will be required to incur additional costs in order to hold additional stockholder meetings to seek such approval.

Rights of Additional Authorized Shares

If and when issued, the additional Common Stock to be authorized by adoption of the Share Increase Amendment would have rights and privileges identical to our currently outstanding Common Stock. Those rights do not include preemptive rights with respect to the future issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock.

Potential Adverse Effects of Increase in Authorized Common Stock

The authorization of additional shares of Common Stock sought by this proposal would not have any immediate dilutive effect upon the proportionate voting power or rights of our existing stockholders; however, to the extent that the additional authorized shares of Common Stock are issued in the future, including in connection with future capital raising transactions or strategic transactions, such issuance may decrease existing stockholders’ percentage equity ownership and, depending upon the price of which they are issued, could be dilutive to existing stockholders and have a negative effect upon the market price of the Common Stock. Our stockholders do not have preemptive rights, which means they do not have the right to purchase shares in any future issuance of Common Stock in order to maintain their proportionate ownership of Common Stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects

The increased proportion of unissued authorized shares, compared to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect (for example, by permitting issuances that would dilute the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of our Board or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for our combination with another company). However, the Share Increase Amendment is not being proposed in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate shares of our Common Stock or obtain control of our Company, nor is it part of a plan by management to recommend a series of similar amendments to our Board and stockholders.

Timing of Proposed Amendment

If this proposal is approved by the stockholders, the Board will have the authority to file the Share Increase Amendment with the office of the Secretary of State of Delaware to implement the increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock and corresponding change to the number of authorized shares of capital stock. The actual timing for implementation of the Share Increase Amendment would be determined by the Board based upon its evaluation as to when such action would be most advantageous to the Company and its stockholders. Notwithstanding approval of this proposal by our stockholders, the Board will have the sole authority to elect whether or not and when to amend the Charter to effect the Share Increase Amendment. If the Board should decide to file the Share Increase Amendment with the office of the Secretary of State of Delaware, the Share Increase Amendment would become effective on the date it is filed.

Interests of Certain Persons

Because it is anticipated that our directors and executive officers will be granted additional equity awards under the AYRO, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan or another plan we adopt in the future, they may be deemed to have an indirect interest in the Share Increase Amendment.

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the votes cast by stockholders present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Share Increase Proposal is required to approve the Share Increase Proposal. “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the Share Increase Proposal. Because the Share Increase Proposal is considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, may vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Share Increase Proposal unless you instruct them otherwise. Failure by a bank, broker, trustee or other nominee to exercise this authority, will have no effect on the results of this vote.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE SHARE INCREASE

PROPOSAL, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR THEREOF

UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER HAS INDICATED OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.
