(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) have been suspended from trading on Nasdaq since July 21, 2023. Following the recent announcement from The Nasdaq Stock Market (&#8220;Nasdaq&#8221;) that it will file a Form 25 Notification of Delisting with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;) to formally complete the delisting of the Company&#8217;s ordinary shares, the Company is pleased to outline its strategic initiatives considering this development.</p>      <p>As disclosed in the Company&#8217;s Form 6-K submitted to the SEC on December 13, 2023, the Company received a decision of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the &#8220;Panel&#8221;) to delist the Company&#8217;s ordinary shares from Nasdaq. The Panel&#8217;s decision was received prior to the occurrence of certain significant corporate events: the insolvency plan of Sono Motors GmbH, the Company&#8217;s sole subsidiary, becoming legally binding, the Company&#8217;s decisive action to withdraw its application for preliminary self-administration proceedings, the closing of the investment from YA II PN, Ltd., and the subsequent funding of the first tranche of such investment.</p>      <p>Having become current on its financial reporting with the SEC and having received an initial round of fresh funding, the Company intends to work towards meeting the initial listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market. In the meantime, and in addition to these efforts, Sono Group N.V. is planning to apply for admission to trading on OTCQB. Such a listing would be aimed at generating additional liquidity for the Company&#8217;s shares and facilitating investor activity as a fully reporting entity. The Company's leadership believes this step could potentially support and enhance shareholder value during this transition period.</p>      <p>Sono Group N.V. extends its sincerest gratitude to all its investors for their continued support and trust. Sono Group N.V. remains dedicated to its mission of putting &#8220;Solar on every vehicle&#8221; and to delivering long-term value to its shareholders.</p>      <p><strong>ABOUT SONO MOTORS</strong></p>      <p>Sono Motors is on a pioneering mission to accelerate the revolution of mobility by making every vehicle solar. Sono Motors&#8217; disruptive solar technology has been engineered to be seamlessly integrated into a variety of vehicle architectures &#8212; including third-party OEM cars, buses, refrigerated vehicles, and recreational vehicles &#8212; to extend range and reduce fuel costs as well as the impact of CO2 emissions, paving the way for climate-friendly mobility.</p>      <p><strong>CONTACT</strong></p>      <p>Press:<br >press@sonomotors.com | www.sonomotors.com/press</p>      <p>Investors:<br >ir@sonomotors.com | ir.sonomotors.com</p>      <p><strong>FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS</strong></p>      <p>This press release includes forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are statements regarding the intentions, beliefs, or current expectations of Sono Group N.V. and Sono Motors GmbH (together, the &#8220;companies&#8221;).

These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, risks, uncertainties and assumptions with respect to: our expectations regarding the remaining stages of Sono GmbH&#8217;s self-administration proceedings; the companies&#8217; ability to maintain relationships with creditors, suppliers, service providers, customers, employees and other third parties as a result of the self-administration proceedings and the related increased performance and credit risks associated with the companies&#8217; constrained liquidity position and capital structure; the companies&#8217; ability to access the external funding required to successfully restructure their business, including by complying with the agreements related to the investment from YA II PN, Ltd. so as to gain access to the funding offered in such transaction; the length of time that Sono Motors GmbH continues to operate under the self-administration proceedings, and the Company&#8217;s ability to have its shares admitted to trading on OTCQB, Nasdaq or any other stock exchange in the future, including the Company&#8217;s ability to meet the relevant application or initial listing requirements and to pay for the related costs. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the companies&#8217; ability to control or estimate precisely, such as the actions of courts, regulatory authorities and other factors. Readers should therefore not place undue reliance on these statements, particularly not in connection with any contract or investment decision. Except as required by law, the companies assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.</p> </p><p ></p></body></html>
