2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

On October 2, 2023, Pineapple Energy Inc. (the “Company”) announced that its 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) has been scheduled for December 14, 2023. The record date for the determination of the Company’s shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting is the close of business on October 30, 2023. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on that date may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Because the date of the Annual Meeting has changed, the Company has set a new deadline for the receipt of shareholder proposals. In accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any shareholder proposal intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting must be delivered to, or mailed to and received at, the Company’s executive offices located at 10900 Red Circle Drive, Minnetonka, Minnesota 55343, Attn: Corporate Secretary, on or before the close of business on October 16, 2023, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Any proposal must comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s regulations regarding the inclusion of shareholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials.

Further, the Company’s Bylaws contain advance notice provisions requiring a shareholder who wishes to present a proposal or nominate directors at the Annual Meeting (which proposal is not intended to be included in the proxy statement for such meeting) to comply with certain requirements, including providing timely written notice thereof in accordance with the Company’s Bylaws. Because the date of the Annual Meeting has changed, notice by a shareholder of any such proposal or nomination must be received by the Company on or before October 30, 2023, the 45^th calendar day prior to the Annual Meeting date.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements, in order to comply with the universal proxy rules under Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees for election at the Annual Meeting, other than the Company’s nominees, must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 no later than October 15, 2023, the 60^th calendar day prior to the Annual Meeting date.
