 long-term outlook and strategic direction.Our customer funnel is stronger than ever, and we believe we now have the liquidity in place to bring our recently developed world-class product, Apollo, to high-volume production and take advantage of the emerging automative and non-automotive opportunities. Now is not the time to derail our strategy and momentum. Do not let the Dissident Group take us off course and undo the progress at this critical time in our Company’s strategic direction.We must stay the course and re-elect the Company’s highly qualified nominees, Timothy Dunn and Sue Zeifman. To ensure AEye stays on the right path and continues to deliver on our goals, we urge you to vote the Company’s WHITEuniversal proxy card enclosed “FOR” both of AEye’s director nominees, Timothy J. Dunn and Sue E. Zeifman, and “AGAINST” all the stockholder proposals submitted by the Dissident Group.

As always, the Board and executive team remain committed to listening
to stockholders’ perspectives, maximizing value for all stockholders, and serving AEye’s customers and partners.

Thank you for your continued investment and support.

Sincerely,

Matthew Fisch (CEO and Chair)

Timothy Dunn (Lead Independent Director)
