are a marine power solutions provider. We control the design, manufacture, sales, installation, operations and maintenance of
our products and solutions while working closely with partners that provide payloads, integration services, and marine
installation capabilities. We believe our solutions provide persistent and reliable distributed offshore power
along with communications for remote surface and subsea applications. Our mission and purpose are to utilize our proprietary,
state-of-the-art technologies to enhance the environment by reducing the global carbon footprint  through clean
and renewable solutions for reliable electrical power and, in so doing, drive demand for our products and
services.</FONT></P>

also continue to develop and commercialize our proprietary systems that generate electricity by harnessing the renewable energy
of ocean waves for our PB3 PowerBuoy&reg;, and solar power for our newest product, the hybrid PowerBuoy&reg;. The PB3 PowerBuoy&reg;
uses proprietary technologies that convert the kinetic energy created by the heaving motion of ocean waves into electricity. Based
on feedback from our current customers, discussions with potential future customers in the offshore oil and gas, defense and security,
science and research, and communications, as well as government applications in fishery protection, together with our market research
and publicly available data, we believe that numerous markets have a direct need for our solutions. While our recent projects
have been in the oil and gas industry, we believe there is an increasing need for our products and solutions in areas such as
fishery protection, offshore windfarm support, marine surveillance, and ocean-based science and research applications. We believe
that having demonstrated the capability of our solutions, we can advance our product and services and gain further adoption from
our target markets. Our marketing efforts are focused on offshore locations that require a cost-efficient solution for renewable,
reliable and persistent power and communications, either by supplying electric power to payloads that are integrated directly
with our product or located in its vicinity, such as on the seabed and in the water column. We believe we are the leader in offshore
autonomous ocean wave power conversion technology which provides renewable power for offshore operations that were previously
difficult to decarbonize.</FONT></P>

conduct a feasibility study for the evaluation of a PB3 PowerBuoy&reg; power and 5G communications solution in support of the
U.S. Navy&rsquo;s Naval Postgraduate School&rsquo;s Sea, Land, Air, Military Research Initiative, which conducts interdisciplinary

certificate of incorporation currently provides that directors may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote

Directors approved an amendment to our bylaws that became effective on June 17, 2016, which permits our directors to be removed
either for cause or without cause by our stockholders. At our annual meeting of stockholders for the year ended April 30, 2016
that was held on October 21, 2016 (the &ldquo;2016 Annual Meeting&rdquo;), we submitted a proposal to stockholders seeking stockholder
approval to amend our certificate of incorporation to delete the reference to &ldquo;for cause&rdquo; in Section 6 of Article
IX of the certificate of incorporation. This proposal to amend the certificate of incorporation did not receive the required affirmative
vote of the holders of at least 75% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting, so the proposal
did not pass. However, we also submitted a proposal to stockholders at the 2016 Annual Meeting seeking approval to amend our certificate
of incorporation to add a clause that specified that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any provision in the Certificate
of Incorporation that is contrary to a requirement of the Delaware General Corporate Law (the &ldquo;DGCL&rdquo;) shall be read
in conformity with the applicable requirement of the DGCL. This second proposal only required the affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the 2016 Annual Meeting, and it passed.</FONT></P>

the records of participants (with respect to interests of persons holding through participants). The laws of some states may require
that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Such limits and such laws

long as the depositary for a global security, or its nominee, is the registered owner of such global security, such depositary
or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by such global
security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, purchase contract or unit agreement. Except as set
forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by such
global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of such securities in
definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, purchase
contract or unit agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures
of the depositary for the global security and, if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through
which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, purchase
contract or unit agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an
owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to give or take any action which a holder is entitled to give or take
under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, purchase contract or unit agreement, the depositary for such global security
would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take such action, and such participants
would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participants to give or take such action or would otherwise act upon the
instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.</FONT></P>

principal, premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or commodities to holders in respect of such global
security, will immediately credit participants&rsquo; accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests
in such global security as shown on the records of such depositary or its nominee. We also expect that payments by participants
to owners of beneficial interests in such global security held through such participants will be governed by standing customer
instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form

a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days, we will issue such securities in definitive form in exchange for such
global security. In addition, we may at any time and in our sole discretion determine not to have any of the securities of a series
represented by one or more global securities and, in such event, will issue securities of such series in definitive form in exchange
for all of the global security or securities representing such securities. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange
for a global security will be registered in such name or names as the depositary shall instruct the relevant trustee, warrant
agent or other relevant agent of ours. We expect that such instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary
from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in such global security.</FONT></P>

are a marine power solutions provider. We control the design, manufacture, sales, installation, operations and maintenance of
our products and solutions while working closely with partners that provide payloads, integration services, and marine
installation capabilities. We believe our solutions provide persistent and reliable distributed offshore power
along with communications for remote surface and subsea applications. Our mission and purpose are to utilize our proprietary,
state-of-the-art technologies to enhance the environment by reducing the global carbon footprint by through clean
and renewable solutions for reliable electrical power and, in so doing, drive demand for our products and
services.</FONT></P>

also continue to develop and commercialize our proprietary systems that generate electricity by harnessing the renewable energy
of ocean waves for our PB3 PowerBuoy&reg;, and solar power for our newest product, the hybrid PowerBuoy&reg;. The PB3 PowerBuoy&reg;
uses proprietary technologies that convert the kinetic energy created by the heaving motion of ocean waves into electricity. Based
on feedback from our current customers, discussions with potential future customers in the offshore oil and gas, defense and security,
science and research, and communications, as well as government applications in fishery protection, together with our market research
and publicly available data, we believe that numerous markets have a direct need for our solutions. While our recent projects
have been in the oil and gas industry, we believe there is an increasing need for our products and solutions in areas such as
fishery protection, offshore windfarm support, marine surveillance, and ocean-based science and research applications. We believe
that having demonstrated the capability of our solutions, we can advance our product and services and gain further adoption from
our target markets. Our marketing efforts are focused on offshore locations that require a cost-efficient solution for renewable,
reliable and persistent power and communications, either by supplying electric power to payloads that are integrated directly
with our product or located in its vicinity, such as on the seabed and in the water column. We believe we are the leader in offshore
autonomous ocean wave power conversion technology which provides renewable power for offshore operations that were previously
difficult to decarbonize.</FONT></P>

conduct a feasibility study for the evaluation of a PB3 PowerBuoy&reg; power and 5G communications solution in support of the
U.S. Navy&rsquo;s Naval Postgraduate School&rsquo;s Sea, Land, Air, Military Research Initiative, which conducts interdisciplinary
research in unmanned and robotic systems. In June 2020, we signed a memorandum of understanding with Mackay Marine (a division of Mackay Communications) to develop a Marine

closing price of our common stock on November 17, 2020), but excluding the sales agent discounts and commissions and estimated
offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of July 31, 2020 would have been approximately $60,115,883,

common stock to investors in this offering. The actual amounts above are based on 18,620,565 shares outstanding as of July 31,
2020 and do not reflect the exercise of warrants outstanding on common stock, the exercise of outstanding options to purchase

either for cause or without cause by our stockholders. At our annual meeting of stockholders for the year ended April 30, 2016

approval to amend our certificate of incorporation to delete the reference to &ldquo;for cause&rdquo; in Section 6 of Article
IX of the certificate of incorporation. This proposal to amend the certificate of incorporation did not receive the required affirmative
vote of the holders of at least 75% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting, so the proposal
did not pass. However, we also submitted a proposal to stockholders at the 2016 Annual Meeting seeking approval to amend our certificate
of incorporation to add a clause that specified that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any provision in the Certificate
of Incorporation that is contrary to a requirement of the Delaware General Corporate Law (the &ldquo;DGCL&rdquo;) shall be read

above, relating to director removal and will not seek to enforce that provision of our certificate of incorporation relating to
stockholder removal of directors only for cause, as presently in effect. Under our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, any
vacancy on the Board, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Board, may be filled only by vote of a majority
of our directors then in office.</FONT></P>

102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors
of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except

a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained
an improper personal benefit. The Registrant&rsquo;s certificate of incorporation provides that no director of the Registrant

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</FONT></P>
