WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO RETURN YOUR PROXIES OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING TO ENSURE THAT YOUR VOTES ARE COUNTED ON EACH MATTER THAT IS BROUGHT TO A VOTE OF THE COMPANY’S STOCKHOLDERS.

What happens if other business not discussed in this Proxy Statement comes before the Special Meeting?

The Board knows of no other matters to be brought before the Special Meeting. If any other business should properly come before the Special Meeting, the persons named in the proxy will vote on such matters according to their best judgment.

When and where will the Special Meeting be held?

The Special Meeting will be held on March 7, 2025 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM.

How can I attend the Special Meeting?

Stockholders as of the Record Date (or their authorized representatives) may attend, vote and submit questions virtually at the Special Meeting by logging in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM. To log in, stockholders (or their authorized representatives) will need the control number provided on their proxy card or voting instruction form. If you are not a stockholder or do not have a control number, you may still access the Special Meeting as a guest, but you will not be able to submit questions or vote at the Special Meeting.

The Special Meeting will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on March 7, 2025. We encourage you to access the Special Meeting prior to the start time. Online access will open at 8:45 a.m. Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time to log in to the meeting webcast and test your computer audio system. We recommend that you carefully review the procedures needed to gain admission in advance.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual Special Meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual Special Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during check-in or during the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual stockholder meeting login page at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold the Special Meeting and vote upon the proposals and consider such other business as may properly come before the Special Meeting. One-third of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date and entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 72,943,568 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote and one share of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding and entitled to vote on the Share Authorization Proposal (subject to the requirements set forth in the Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock being satisfied). Thus, in addition to the presence of the Series A Preferred Stock at the meeting, the holders of 24,314,523 shares must be present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting to have a quorum.

In addition, unless at least one-third of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date are present by virtual attendance at the Special Meeting or represented by proxy, the holder of Series A Preferred Stock will not cast any votes on the Share Authorization Proposal.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote online at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.

If there is no quorum, the Special Meeting may be adjourned to another date by the holders of a majority of shares present by virtual attendance at the meeting or represented by proxy or by the chairperson of the meeting without any action by the stockholders to permit further solicitation of proxies.

Who is entitled to vote?

The Record Date for the Special Meeting is the close of business on January 28, 2025. As of the Record Date, 72,943,568 shares were outstanding, consisting of 72,936,901 shares of Class A Common Stock, 6,667 shares of Class B Common Stock and one share of Series A Preferred Stock. Only holders of record of Common Stock as of the Record Date will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock and 3,000,000,000 votes for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held by such stockholder on the Record Date.

The share of Series A Preferred Stock may only vote on the Share Authorization Proposal as described below.

On January 28, 2025, the holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to and in accordance with Article VI, Section 6.1 of the Charter and Section 229 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, approved on behalf of the Class B Common Stock (among other things) the issuance of the share of Series A Preferred Stock and terms of the Series A Preferred Stock.

How many votes do I have?

For each proposal on the agenda for the Special Meeting, you have one vote for each share of Common Stock you owned as of the Record Date. The holder of the one outstanding share of our Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes but has the right to vote only on the Share Authorization Proposal and the Series A Preferred Stock votes must be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by shares of Common Stock on such Proposal. For example, if 60% of the votes cast by holders of common stock for the Share Authorization Proposal vote “For” the proposal and 40% vote “Against” the proposal, the holder of the share of Series A Preferred Stock will cast 1,800,000,000 votes “For” the Share Authorization Proposal and 1,200,000,000 votes “Against” the Share Authorization Proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock will vote on the Share Authorization Proposal as a single class with the Common Stock. The share of Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically redeemed by us effective upon the approval of the Share Authorization Proposal (or at an earlier time as the Board may determine in its sole discretion).

How do I vote?

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other agent, you should have received a proxy card and voting instructions with these proxy materials from that organization. Simply complete and mail the proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone or over the Internet as instructed by your broker or bank. To vote your shares electronically during the Special Meeting, you must obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker, bank or other agent and register in advance by following the instructions above, join the Special Meeting as a “Stockholder” with your control number, and click on the “Cast Your Vote” link on the meeting center website. Follow the instructions from your broker or bank included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker or bank to request a proxy form.

How do I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

You may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the Special Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy by:

●

delivering, to the attention of the Corporate Secretary at the address on the first page of this Proxy Statement, a written notice of revocation of your proxy;

●

delivering to us an authorized proxy bearing a later date (including a proxy over the Internet or by telephone); or

●

attending the Special Meeting and voting electronically, as indicated above under “How do I vote?” Attendance at the Special Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee. Please note that if your shares are held of record by a bank, broker or other nominee, and you decide to attend and vote at the Special Meeting, your vote at the Special Meeting will not be effective unless you present a legal proxy, issued in your name from the record holder (your bank, broker or other nominee).

If I vote in advance, can I still attend the Special Meeting?

Yes. You are encouraged to vote promptly by returning your signed proxy card by mail or, if applicable, by appointing a proxy to vote electronically via the Internet or by telephone so that your shares will be represented at the Special Meeting. However, returning your proxy card does not affect your right to attend the Special Meeting.

How many votes are required for the approval of each of the Proposals, and how will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated?

Vote Required

Proposal 1. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, is required for the approval of Proposal 1, the Share Authorization Proposal.

Proposal 2. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote is required for the approval of Proposal 2, the Private Placements Proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this proposal.

Proposal 3. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote is required for the approval of Proposal 3, the Auditor Ratification Proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this proposal.

Proposal 4. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote is required for the approval of Proposal 4, the Adjournment Proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this proposal.

Abstentions

A stockholder may abstain from voting with respect to each item submitted for stockholder approval. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against.

Broker Non-Votes

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker how to vote your shares, the question of whether your broker will still be able to vote your shares depends on whether the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) deems the particular proposal to be a “routine” matter. Although our shares are listed with the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”), the NYSE regulates broker-dealers and their discretion to vote on stockholder proposals. Under the NYSE rules applicable to brokers and other similar organizations that are subject to NYSE rules, such organizations may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed shares” with respect to matters considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under such rules and interpretations, non-routine matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of stockholders, such as mergers, stockholder proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), executive compensation (including any advisory stockholder votes on executive compensation and on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation), and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported. In this regard, the Share Authorization Proposal, and the Private Placements Proposal should be considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules and, accordingly, we believe that your broker may NOT vote your shares on such proposals without your instructions. The Auditor Ratification Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal should be considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules and, accordingly, we believe that your broker may vote your shares on such Proposals without instructions from you. Nevertheless, whether a proposal is “routine” or “non-routine” remains subject to the final determination of the NYSE. If your shares are held by a bank, we believe your shares cannot be voted without your specific instructions. Accordingly, if you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker that holds your shares, we believe your broker should not have discretionary authority under NYSE rules to vote your shares on the Share Authorization Proposal absent additional instructions from you. Given such discretionary authority, we do not anticipate broker non-votes for this Proposal.

Broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. For the Share Authorization Proposal and Private Placements Proposal, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of such Proposals. Although abstentions, if any, will technically have the same effect as “Against” votes with respect to the Share Authorization Proposal, because the share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes and will vote in a manner that mirrors votes actually cast (which does not include abstentions), abstention, if any, will have virtually no effect on the outcome of the Share Authorization Proposal. Therefore, if you do not wish for the Share Authorization Proposal to pass, you should vote “Against” each such Proposal.

What are the consequences if the Share Authorization Proposal is not approved?

If the Share Authorization Proposal is not approved at the Special Meeting, the Charter will not be amended to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, by 25,000,000, from 104,245,313 to 129,245,313, increasing the total number of authorized shares of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock, by 25,000,000, from 114,245,313 to 139,245,313. The failure to obtain approval of the Share Authorization Proposal may hinder the Company from meeting its existing obligations to issue shares of Common Stock as and if they become due, from obtaining future financing and from meeting the goals of its compensation strategy.

How will my shares be voted if I return a blank proxy card or voting instruction form?

If your shares are registered in your name, you must sign and return a proxy card in order for your shares to be voted, unless you vote via the Internet or by telephone, or vote at the Special Meeting. If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as you have instructed. If you execute the proxy card and do not provide voting instructions on any given matter, your shares will be voted in accordance with our Board’s recommendations on that matter. We urge you to sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided, or vote via the Internet or by telephone as instructed on the proxy card, whether or not you plan to vote at the Special Meeting.

If your shares are held in “street name” (that is, held for your account by a broker, bank or other nominee), you will receive a voting instruction form from your broker, bank or other nominee. You must follow these instructions in order for your shares to be voted. Your broker is required to vote those shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares, then your shares:

●

will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum;

●

may be voted by your broker, bank or other nominee in their discretion with regards to Proposal 3 (Auditor Ratification Proposal) and Proposal 4 (Adjournment Proposal); and

●

may not be voted by your broker, bank or other nominee with regards to Proposal 1 (Share Authorization Proposal) and Proposal 2 (Private Placements Proposal). For these proposals, your shares will be treated as “broker non-votes.”

If your broker, bank or other nominee executes the proxy card and does not provide voting instructions on any given matter, your shares will be voted in accordance with our Board’s recommendations on that matter. We urge you to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to vote your shares in accordance with our Board’s recommendations on the voting instruction form, whether or not you plan to vote at the Special Meeting.

Our Board knows of no matter to be presented at the Special Meeting other than Proposals 1 through 4. If any other matters properly come before the Special Meeting upon which a vote properly may be taken, shares represented by all proxies received by us will be voted with respect thereto as permitted and in accordance with the judgment of the proxy holders.

What is the deadline for submitting a proxy?

To ensure that proxies are received in time to be counted prior to the Special Meeting, proxies submitted by Internet or by telephone should be received by 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time on the day prior to the date of the Special Meeting, and proxies submitted by mail should be received by the close of business on the day prior to the date of the Special Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card from the Company?

If you hold your shares in more than one account, you will receive a proxy card for each account. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, please complete, sign, date and return a proxy card for each account or use the proxy card for each account to vote by Internet or by telephone. To ensure that all of your shares are represented at the Special Meeting, we recommend that you vote every proxy card that you receive.

Can I ask questions at the virtual Special Meeting?

Stockholders as of the Record Date who attend and participate in our virtual Special Meeting will have an opportunity to submit questions live via the Internet during a designated portion of the Special Meeting. To ensure the orderly conduct of the Special Meeting, we encourage you to submit questions in advance of the Special Meeting until 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time the day before the Special Meeting by going to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM and logging in with your control number.

During the Special Meeting, we will spend up to 15 minutes answering stockholder questions that comply with the meeting rules of conduct. The rules of conduct, including the topics and types of questions that will be accepted, will be posted on the Special Meeting website during the Special Meeting. If we receive substantially similar questions, we will group such questions together and provide a single response to avoid repetition. Stockholders must have available their control number provided on their proxy card to ask questions during the Special Meeting.

Only questions pertinent to meeting matters will be answered during the meeting, subject to time constraints, and in accordance with our rules of conduct for the Special Meeting, which will be posted on the meeting center website.

How do I ask questions during the Special Meeting?

If you are a stockholder of record, or a beneficial owner who registered in advance by following the instructions above, you can join the Special Meeting as a “Stockholder” with your control number and may submit questions during the Special Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM. We also encourage you to submit questions in advance of the meeting until 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time the day before the Special Meeting by going to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM and logging in with your control number.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will bear the expenses of calling and holding the Special Meeting and the solicitation of proxies with respect to the Special Meeting. These costs will include, among other items, the expense of preparing, assembling, printing, and mailing the proxy materials to stockholders of record and street name stockholders, and reimbursements paid to brokers, banks, and other nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy materials to stockholders and obtaining voting instructions from street name stockholders. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, our directors, officers, and certain employees, investors and their representatives may solicit proxies on behalf of our Board, without additional compensation, personally or by telephone.

Certain representatives of FF Global Partners Investment LLC, formerly FF Top Holding LLC (“FF Top”), and its indirect parent entity FF Global Partners, LLC (“FF Global”), including, without limitation, Weiwei Zhao (collectively, the “FF Top Representatives”), are additional participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the Special Meeting. Information regarding the direct and indirect interests in the Company, by security holdings or otherwise, of FF Global, FF Top and the FF Top Representatives is included in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 31, 2024, and the Annual Report on Forms 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on May 28, 2024, as amended by the Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 30, 2024 and June 24, 2024. Changes to the direct or indirect ownership of FF Top and FF Global are set forth in SEC filings on Schedule 13D/A.

The Company has retained Georgeson LLC (“Georgeson”) to solicit proxies. Under our agreement with Georgeson, they will receive a fee of up to approximately $100,000 plus the reimbursement of reasonable expenses. The Company also agreed to indemnify Georgeson against certain liabilities relating to, or arising out of, its retention. Georgeson will solicit proxies by mail, telephone, facsimile and email.

Will a stockholder list be available for inspection?

A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting will be available for inspection by stockholders for any purpose germane to the Special Meeting for 10 business days prior to the Special Meeting at Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc., 18455 S. Figueroa Street, Gardena, California 90248, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The stockholder list will also be available to stockholders of record for examination during the Special Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FFIE2025SM. You will need the control number included on your proxy card or otherwise provided by your bank, broker or other nominee.

What is “householding” and how does it affect me?

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC, called “householding.” Under this procedure, we send only one Proxy Statement to eligible stockholders who share a single address, unless we have received instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table and accompanying footnotes set forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock, as of January 28, 2025, for (1) each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (2) each member of the Board, (3) each of our named executive officers (as disclosed below) and (4) all of the members of the Board and our executive officers, as a group. As of January 28, 2025, there were outstanding 72,936,901 shares of Class A Common Stock, 6,667 shares of Class B Common Stock, one Series A Preferred Stock, and 33,114,928 outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock.

The beneficial ownership percentages set forth in the table below are based on 72,943,568 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of January 28, 2025, (including for this purpose, 6,667 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 6,667 shares of Class B Common Stock held by FF Top, all as issued and outstanding shares as of January 28, 2025) and do not take into account the issuance of any shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of warrants to purchase up to 33,114,928 shares of Class A Common Stock that remain outstanding, the exercise of any of the 2,765 outstanding options and vesting of unvested 9,537 RSUs (both within 60 days of January 28, 2025), or the conversion of any of the outstanding convertible notes. In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person, we deemed to be outstanding all shares of Common Stock subject to warrants and stock options held by the person that are currently exercisable or may be exercised within 60 days of January 28, 2025. We did not deem such shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Beneficial ownership for the purposes of the following table is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. A person is a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of the security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of the security or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days.

Unless otherwise noted in the footnotes to the following table, and subject to applicable community property laws, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to their beneficially owned Common Stock. Unless otherwise indicated, the business address of each person listed in the table below is c/o Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc., 18455 S. Figueroa Street, Gardena, California 90248.

PROPOSAL 1: APPROVAL OF THE SHARE AUTHORIZATION PROPOSAL

The Board recommends that the stockholders adopt an amendment to the Charter to increase the number of authorized shares (the “Authorized Shares Increase”) of Common Stock, by 25,000,000, from 104,245,313 to 129,245,313 shares, increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, by 25,000,000, from 114,245,313 to 139,245,313 shares. Pursuant to the Charter, the Company currently has 10,000,000 shares of its Preferred Stock and 104,245,313 shares of Common Stock authorized, including (i) 99,815,625 shares of Class A Common Stock and (ii) 4,429,688 shares of Class B Common Stock. As of January 28, 2025, there were 72,936,901 shares of Class A Common Stock, 6,667 shares of Class B Common Stock and one Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

The Board believes it is desirable for the Company to have a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for the satisfaction of its existing obligations to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as and if they become due, for conversion of the promissory notes and exercise of the outstanding warrants, possible future financings or acquisition transactions, stock dividends or splits, stock issuances pursuant to employee benefit plans and other proper corporate purposes. In particular, in order to fund its ongoing operations and business plan, including to continue production of the FF 91 2.0 Futurist Alliance and to fund the execution of the FX strategy, the Company is seeking to raise additional capital from various fundraising efforts currently underway to bolster its cash on hand. FF expects that it may be able to raise additional capital to support the ramp-up of production of the FF 91 to potentially generate sufficient revenues to put the Company on a path to cash flow break-even. It is possible that some of these additional shares could be used for various other purposes without further stockholder approval, except as such approval may be required in particular cases by the Charter, applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or other quotation system on which the Company’s securities may then be listed. The Board believes that approval of the Share Authorization Proposal is crucial predominantly to ensure that the Company has sufficient authorized shares to meet its existing obligations to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as and if they become due, and to secure needed financing without incurring the delay and expense of holding additional stockholders’ meetings.

If the Share Authorization Proposal is approved, up to an additional 25,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, would be issued and outstanding or available for future issuance. The additional shares of Class A Common Stock will have the same rights as the presently authorized shares of Class A Common Stock, including the right to cast one vote per share of Class A Common Stock. Although the authorization of additional shares will not, in itself, have any effect on the rights of any holder of our Class A Common Stock, the future issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock (other than by way of a stock split or dividend) would have the effect of diluting the voting rights and could have the effect of diluting earnings per share and book value per share of existing stockholders.

The Charter amendment will become effective upon the filing of the amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company currently plans to file such amendment promptly after the Special Meeting if the Share Authorization Proposal is approved. The text of the form of the Charter amendment is set forth in Annex A to this Proxy Statement. Such text is subject to amendment to include such changes as may be required by the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or as the Board deems necessary or advisable to effect the Authorized Shares Increase, if any.

Proposal

The Company is seeking stockholder approval to adopt an amendment to the Charter to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, by 25,000,000 from 104,245,313 to 129,245,313, increasing the total number of authorized shares of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock, by 25,000,000, from 114,245,313 to 139,245,313.

Voting Requirements

Approval of the Share Authorization Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class. Each share of Common Stock has one vote. The share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes, but those votes must be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by shares of Common Stock on this Proposal. Abstentions will be counted towards the vote total and will have the same effect as “Against” votes for this Proposal. However, because the share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes and will vote in a manner that mirrors votes actually cast (which does not include abstentions or broker non-votes), abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the manner in which the Series A Preferred Stock votes are cast. We believe that broker non-votes will be counted towards the presence of a quorum but will have no effect and will not be counted towards the vote total for this Proposal because we have been advised by NYSE that this Proposal should be considered “non-routine” under NYSE rules, and accordingly, we believe that your broker may not vote your shares on such Proposal without instructions from you. Nevertheless, whether a proposal is “routine” or “non-routine” remains subject to the final determination of NYSE. If your shares are held by a bank, we believe your shares cannot be voted without your specific instructions. Further, because the share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes and will vote in a manner that mirrors votes actually cast (which does not include abstentions or broker non-votes), abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the manner in which the Series A Preferred Stock votes are cast. Therefore, if you do not wish for this Proposal to pass, you should vote “Against” this Proposal.

Recommendation

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” THE SHARE AUTHORIZATION PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO HOLDERS OF CERTAIN OF OUR CONVERTIBLE NOTES AND WARRANTS

We are seeking stockholder approval, for purposes of complying with Listing Rule 5635(d), for the issuance of (i) 10,855,757 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchange Notes (as defined below) issued by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (defined below) (such issuance, the “Exchange Financing”); (ii)(A) 57,288,691 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Secured Notes (defined below) and certain incremental secured convertible promissory notes issuable upon exercise of the September Incremental Warrants (defined below) and (B) 5,931,538 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the September Warrants (defined below) and PA Warrants (defined below) issued pursuant to the September Purchase Agreement (defined below) (such financing, the “September Financing”); and (iii)(A) 57,280,430 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Unsecured Notes (defined below) and certain incremental unsecured convertible promissory notes issuable upon exercise of the December Incremental Warrants (defined below) and (B) 25,874,953 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the December Warrants (defined below) issued pursuant to the December Purchase Agreement (defined below) (such financing, the “December Financing” and, collectively with the September Financing and the Exchange Financing, the “Financings”).

Background

On August 29, 2024, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain noteholders (the “Holders”) who beneficially owned and held certain notes (the “Streeterville Notes”) of the Company which were initially issued on August 4, 2023 (the “Initial Issuance Date”) and acquired by the Holders on May 17, 2024. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to issue certain senior convertible notes (the “Exchange Notes”), in exchange for the surrender of the outstanding Streeterville Notes held by the Holders.

On September 5, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “September Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors as purchasers (the “September Purchasers”). Pursuant to the September Purchase Agreement, the Company sold, and the September Purchasers purchased, approximately $30 million, consisting of approximately $22.5 million in cash and approximately $7.5 million converted from previous loans to the Company, of secured convertible promissory notes (the “Secured Notes”), common stock purchase warrants (the “September Warrants”) and incremental note purchase warrants (the “September Incremental Warrants” and, together with the Secured Notes and the September Warrants, the “September Financing Documents”) in two closings. The initial closing occurred on September 12, 2024 and the subsequent closing occurred on September 30, 2024.

On December 21, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “December Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors as purchasers (the “December Purchasers” and, together with the September Purchasers and the Holders, the “Noteholders”). Pursuant to the December Purchase Agreement, the Company sold, and the December Purchasers purchased, approximately $30 million, consisting of approximately $22.5 million in cash and approximately $7.5 million converted from previous loans to the Company, of unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “Unsecured Notes”), common stock purchase warrants (the “December Warrants”) and incremental note purchase warrants (the “December Incremental Warrants”) in multiple closings. The initial closing occurred on December 31, 2024, the second closing occurred on January 17, 2025 and the final closing occurred on January 22, 2025. V W Investment Holding Limited, one of the December Purchasers involved in the December Financing only, is an independent investment fund with investors including FF Global Partners (“FFGP”).

The Exchange Notes, Secured Notes, September Warrants, PA Warrants, Unsecured Notes, and December Warrants are each referred to herein as a “Financing Document”, and collectively, the “Financing Documents”.

Prior to the payment of Interest on an Interest Date, interest on this Note shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable by way of inclusion of the Interest in the Conversion Amount on each Conversion Date, or upon any redemption, unless in the event of an event of default, in which case the interest rate of the Secured Notes shall automatically be increased to 18% per annum (“Interest Adjustments”). In the event such default has been cured, such Interest Adjustments shall cease to be effective as of the calendar day immediately following the date of such cure; provided that the interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of that certain default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such default through and including the date of such cure of such default.

Ranking; Security Interest.

The Secured Notes are junior secured obligations of the Company and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company, pursuant to a security agreement. In addition, certain subsidiaries of the Company in the September Purchase Agreement secured the Company’s obligations under the September Financing Documents by granting a perfected lien upon substantially all of the personal property of each such subsidiary, for the benefit of the Investors.

September Letter Agreement

On January 28, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “September Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which, the September Purchasers agreed to not to convert any portion of the Secured Notes at a conversion price less than $5.24 per share prior to Company’s receipt of stockholder approval. In consideration therefor, the Company agreed to issue to the September Purchasers who so convert any Secured Notes at the initial conversion price of $5.24 prior to the Company’s receipt of stockholder approval, certain True-Up Shares (as defined in the September Letter Agreement) underlying the True-Up Conversion Amount (as defined in the September Letter Agreement). The applicable conversion price for purposes of calculating the number of True-Up Shares to which any such Purchaser is entitled is the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable True-Up Date (as defined in the September Letter Agreement), and (ii) the greater of (x) the Floor Price and (y) the lowest of the five (5) VWAPs of the Common Stock during the five (5) consecutive Trading Day period ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the True-Up Date.

The Company also issued certain placement agent warrants (“PA Warrants”) to Univest Securities LLC, the sole placement agent of the transaction.

Registration Rights

The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC on November 1, 2024 providing for the resale by the Investors of certain shares issuable pursuant to the September Financing Documents and such registration statement was declared effective on November 29, 2024. The Company also agreed to keep such registration statement effective at all times until no Investors owns any September Warrants or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof.

December Financing

For the purpose of descriptions of the terms under this December Financing section only, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Unsecured Notes.

Unsecured Notes

In the event such default has been cured, such Interest Adjustments shall cease to be effective as of the calendar day immediately following the date of such cure; provided that the interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of that certain default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such default through and including the date of such cure of such default.

The Maturity Date may be extended by the noteholders under circumstances specified therein. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay noteholders an amount in cash representing all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest on such principal and interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges. Other than as specifically permitted by the Unsecured Notes, the Company may not prepay any portion of the outstanding principal and accrued, unpaid interest or accrued and unpaid Late Charges on principal and interest, if any.

Conversion

Each holder of Secured Notes may convert all, or any part, of the outstanding principal of the Unsecured Notes, at any time at such holder’s option, into shares of Common Stock, at a conversion price per share of $1.16 (the “Initial Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment under certain circumstances described in the Unsecured Notes. Each holder may alternatively elect to convert the Unsecured Notes, at any time at such holder’s option, into shares of Common Stock at the “Alternate Conversion Price” equal to the lesser of: (i) the Initial Conversion Price then in effect and (ii) the greater of (a) the floor price of $1.048 per share and (b) the lowest volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock during the five consecutive Trading Days ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable conversion notice.

Adjustments

If on the day(s) on which (i) a registration statement registering for resale by the Investors the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the December Warrants and conversion of the Unsecured Notes and Incremental Notes (the “Resale Registration Statement”) becomes effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use (the “Registration Adjustment Event”) and (ii) the Company files with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amendment to its Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation such that the Company has enough authorized and unissued Common Stock available for conversion in full of the Unsecured Notes and Incremental Notes at the Initial Conversion Price and the exercise in full of the December Warrants at the Initial Exercise Price (the “Authorized Share Adjustment Event” and, together with the Registration Adjustment Event, each an “Adjustment Event”, and the day on which each Adjustment Event occurs, an “Adjustment Date”), the Conversion Price then in effect is greater than the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day ended immediately prior to such Adjustment Date (each, an “Adjustment Price” and, collectively, the “Adjustment Prices”), on any such Adjustment Date, the Conversion Price shall automatically lower to the Adjustment Price.

Redemption Rights

Company Optional Redemption. The Company has the option to redeem the Unsecured Notes at a 10% redemption premium to the greater of (i) the shares of Common Stock then outstanding under the Unsecured Notes and (ii) the equity value of Common Stock underlying the Unsecured Notes. The equity value of Common Stock underlying the Unsecured Notes is calculated using the greatest closing sale price of the Common Stock during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding notice of such redemption and ending on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made for such redemption.

Bankruptcy Event of Default Mandatory Redemption. Upon any bankruptcy event of default, the Company shall immediately redeem in cash all amounts due under the Unsecured Notes at 25% premium unless the noteholder waives such right to receive such payment.

December Letter Agreement

On January 28, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “December Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which, the December Purchasers agreed to not to convert any portion of the Unsecured Notes at a conversion price less than $1.16 per share prior to Company’s receipt of stockholder approval. In consideration therefor, the Company agreed to issue to the December Purchasers who so convert any Unsecured Notes at the initial conversion price of $1.16 prior to the Company’s receipt of stockholder approval, certain True-Up Shares (as defined in the December Letter Agreement) underlying the True-Up Conversion Amount (as defined in the December Letter Agreement). The applicable conversion price for purposes of calculating the number of True-Up Shares to which any such Purchaser is entitled is the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable True-Up Date (as defined in the December Letter Agreement), and the Alternate Conversion Price (as defined in the Unsecured Notes). The Company also agrees in the December Letter Agreement that, if on the day(s) after the receipt of the stockholder approval, on which a Registration Statement (as defined in the Unsecured Notes) becomes effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use (such date, an “Adjustment Date”), the Conversion Price (as defined in the Unsecured Notes) then in effect is greater than the Closing Bid Price (as defined in the Unsecured Notes) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day (as defined in the Unsecured Notes) ended immediately prior to such Adjustment Date (the “Adjustment Price”), the Conversion Price shall automatically lower to the Adjustment Price.

December Warrants

The December Warrants are exercisable immediately on the date thereof with a term of five years to purchase an aggregate of 25,874,953 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.392 per share (the “Initial Exercise Price”), subject to adjustment under certain circumstances described in the December Warrants. Pursuant to the December Letter Agreement, the December Purchasers agreed to not to exercise any such December Warrants before the Company’s receipt of stockholder approval.

The December Incremental Warrants are exercisable immediately on the date thereof with a term of one year to purchase the Unsecured Notes at an exercise price of equal to the principal amount of the Unsecured Notes issued to such December Purchaser, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances described in the December Incremental Warrants.

Registration Rights

The Company has agreed to file a Resale Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, (i) with respect to the initial closing, within 45 calendar days of December 31, 2024 (the “Initial Closing Date”) or as soon as practicable thereafter and (ii) with respect to any subsequent closings, within 45 calendar days after the later of (A) the date on which the most recently filed Resale Registration Statement becomes effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use and (B) the applicable closing date (each such date, a ”Registration Trigger Date”), and, in each case, seek effectiveness within 90 days following the initial closing date or the applicable Registration Trigger Date, and keep such Resale Registration Statements effective at all times until no Investors owns any Unsecured Notes, December Warrants or December Incremental Warrants or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof.

Limitations on Conversion

A Noteholder shall not have the right to convert any portion of a Financing Document to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, the Noteholder (together with certain related parties) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%, or the “Maximum Percentage”, of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. The Maximum Percentage may be raised or lowered to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, at the option of the Noteholder, except that any increase will only be effective upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.

Nasdaq Stockholder Approval Requirement

Listing Rule 5635(d) requires stockholder approval in connection with a transaction, other than a public offering, involving the sale or issuance by the issuer of Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) equal to 20% or more of the Common Stock or 20% or more of the voting power of such company outstanding before the issuance for a price that is less than the lower of: (i) the closing price of the Common Stock immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities and (ii) the average closing price of the Common Stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities.

Voting Requirements

The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this Proposal. The Bylaws require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote to approve the Private Placements Proposal. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum and will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this Proposal. We believe that broker non-votes will be counted towards the presence of a quorum but will have no effect and will not be counted towards the vote total for this Proposal because we have been advised by NYSE that this Proposal should be considered “non-routine” under NYSE rules, and accordingly, we believe that your broker may not vote your shares on such Proposal without instructions from you. Nevertheless, whether a proposal is “routine” or “non-routine” remains subject to the final determination of NYSE. If your shares are held by a bank, we believe your shares cannot be voted without your specific instructions.

Recommendation

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” THE PRIVATE PLACEMENTS PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL 3: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF MGO AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR 2025

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (the “independent auditors”). The Audit Committee has appointed MGO to serve as our independent auditors with respect to our operations for the year ending December 31, 2025, subject to ratification by stockholders. Stockholder ratification of such selection is not required by our Bylaws or any other applicable legal requirement. However, our Board is submitting the selection of MGO to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance.

In taking this action, the Audit Committee considered carefully MGO’s independence with respect to the services to be performed and its general reputation for adherence to professional auditing standards. The Audit Committee is responsible for the determination of the fees associated with the retention of MGO. The Audit Committee will annually evaluate the performance of MGO, including the senior audit engagement team, and will determine whether to reengage the independent auditors.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the engagement of MGO as our independent auditors is in the best interests of FF and our stockholders. Because the members of the Audit Committee value stockholders’ views on our independent auditors, even though ratification is not legally required, there will be presented at the Special Meeting a proposal for the ratification of the appointment of MGO. If the appointment of MGO is not ratified, the matter of the appointment of independent auditors will be considered by the Audit Committee.

The Company does not anticipate representatives from MGO to be present at the Special Meeting. In the event that a representative of MGO is present at the Special Meeting, the representative will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and the Company will allow such representative to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table shows the fees for professional audit services and other services rendered by MGO and Mazars USA LLP (“Mazars”) for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

	2024 ($)		2023 ($)
Audit Fees (1)		750,000		1,265,000
Audit-Related Fees (2)		—		—
Tax Fees		—		—
All Other Fees		—		—
Total		750,000		1,265,000

(1)

Audit fees consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our year-end financial statements, reviews of our quarterly interim financial statements, and services that are normally provided by our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. As noted above, we engaged Mazars LLC to audit our financial statements for the full year ended December 31, 2023, and engaged MGO to audit our financial statements for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The audit fee for MGO is based on the engagement letter signed and may exceed the this amount if additional hours are required for the completion of the annual audit of 2024.

(2)

Audit-related services consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” These services include attest services that are not required by statute or regulation and consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.

Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee has implemented a policy for the pre-approval of all audit and permitted non-audit services, including tax services, proposed to be provided to the Company by its independent auditor. Under the policy, the Audit Committee may approve engagements on a case-by-case basis or pre-approve engagements on a categorical basis pursuant to the Audit Committee’s pre-approval policy.

The Audit Committee approved all services provided by MGO during the year ended December 31, 2024 and by Mazars during the year ended December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee has considered the nature and amount of the fees billed by MGO and Mazars, respectively and believes that the provision of the services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining MGO’s and Mazars’ independence.

Voting Requirements

Approval of the Auditor Ratification Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock has one vote. The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this proposal. Abstentions will be counted towards the vote total and will have the same effect as “Against” votes for this Proposal. We do not anticipate broker non-votes for this proposal because this Proposal should be considered “routine” under NYSE rules, and accordingly, we believe that your broker may vote your shares on this Proposal without instructions from you.

Recommendation

THE BOARD AND THE AUDIT COMMITTEE UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMEND THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF MGO AS FF’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2025.

PROPOSAL 4: APPROVAL OF AN ADJOURNMENT OF THE SPECIAL MEETING, IF
NECESSARY, TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES

If the Special Meeting is convened and a quorum is present, but there are not sufficient votes to approve the Proposals, or if there are insufficient votes to constitute a quorum, our proxy holders may move to adjourn the Special Meeting at that time in order to enable the Board to solicit additional proxies.

In this Proposal, we are asking our stockholders to authorize the adjournment of the Special Meeting by the Company from time to time to permit further solicitation of proxies, if necessary or appropriate, if sufficient votes are not represented at the Special Meeting to approve the Proposals or if otherwise determined by the chairperson of the meeting to be necessary or appropriate. If our stockholders approve this Proposal, we could adjourn the Special Meeting and any adjourned or postponed session of the Special Meeting and use the additional time to solicit additional proxies, including the solicitation of proxies from our stockholders that have previously voted. Among other things, approval of this Proposal could mean that, even if we had received proxies representing a sufficient number of votes to defeat the Proposals, we could adjourn the Special Meeting without a vote on such Proposal and seek to convince our stockholders to change their votes in favor of such Proposal.

If it is necessary or appropriate (as determined in good faith by the Board) to adjourn the Special Meeting, no notice of the adjourned meeting is required to be given to our stockholders, other than an announcement at the Special Meeting of the time and place to which the Special Meeting is adjourned, so long as the meeting is adjourned for 30 days or less and no new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, we may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

Proposal

The Company is seeking stockholder approval to adjourn the Special Meeting by the Company from time to time to permit further solicitation of proxies, if necessary or appropriate, if sufficient votes are not represented at the Special Meeting to approve the Proposals or if otherwise determined by the chairperson of the meeting to be necessary or appropriate.

Voting Requirements

The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to vote on this Proposal. The Bylaws require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares of our Common Stock present by virtual attendance at the Special Meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Special Meeting to approve the Adjournment Proposal. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum and will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this Proposal. We do not anticipate broker non-votes for this proposal because this Proposal should be considered “routine” under NYSE rules, and accordingly, we believe that your broker may vote your shares on this Proposal without instructions from you. Nevertheless, whether a proposal is “routine” or “non-routine” remains subject to the final determination of NYSE. If your shares are held by a bank, we believe your shares cannot be voted without your specific instructions.

Recommendation

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2025 ANNUAL MEETING

In order for a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, our Corporate Secretary must receive the proposal no later than March 7, 2025. If the date of next year’s annual meeting is changed by more than 30 days from the date of this year’s Annual Meeting, then the deadline will be a reasonable time before we begin to make our proxy materials available to stockholders. Such proposals must be sent via registered, certified, or express mail (or other means that allows the stockholder to determine when the proposal was received) to: Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 18455 S. Figueroa Street, Gardena, California 90248. Such proposals must comply with the SEC’s requirements in Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in Company-sponsored proxy materials, such as the requirement that the stockholder continues to own a minimum number of shares until the 2025 Annual Meeting and appear in person or through an authorized representative at the 2025 Annual Meeting to present the proposal.

Alternatively, stockholders intending to put forth a director nomination or a stockholder proposal not pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act must comply with the requirements set forth in our Bylaws. Our Bylaws require, among other things, that our Corporate Secretary receive written notice with respect to each director nomination or other proposal that the stockholder intends to present at the 2025 Annual Meeting from the stockholder no earlier than the close of business on April 2, 2025 and no later than the close of business on May 2, 2025. If we change the date of our 2025 Annual Meeting to a date that is before July 1, 2025 or after August 30, 2025, however, notice of any proposal or director nomination must instead be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to our 2025 Annual Meeting, and the 10th day following the day on which we first publicly announce the date of our 2025 Annual Meeting. The notice must contain the information required by our Bylaws.

In order for stockholders to give timely notice of nominations for directors, other than those nominated by the Company, for inclusion on a universal proxy card in connection with the 2025 Annual Meeting, notice must be submitted no later than June 1, 2025 and include all of the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act. If we change the date of our 2025 Annual Meeting to a date that is before July 1, 2025 or after August 30, 2025, however, notice of nominations for directors, other than those nominated by the Company, for inclusion on a universal proxy card must instead be delivered by the later of the 60th day prior to our 2025 Annual Meeting, or the 10th day following the day on which we first publicly announce the date of our 2025 Annual Meeting.

Proposals received by the Corporate Secretary after the dates mentioned will not be included in the proxy statement or acted upon at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

OTHER MATTERS

The Board is not aware of any other matters to be submitted for consideration at the Special Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Special Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy card to vote the shares they represent as the Board may recommend. Discretionary authority with respect to such other matters is granted by the execution of the proxy, whether through telephonic or Internet voting or, alternatively, by using a paper copy of the proxy card that has been requested.

It is important that your shares be represented at the Special Meeting, regardless of the number of shares that you hold. You are, therefore, urged to vote by telephone or by using the Internet as instructed on the proxy card or, if so requested, by executing and returning, at your earliest convenience, the requested proxy card in the envelope that will have been provided.

This 30^th day of January, 2025.
