**Nauticus Robotics, Inc.**

**Supplement to Definitive Proxy Statement** 

**regarding Special Meeting of Shareholders** 

**on November 21, 2025**

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Nauticus Robotics, Inc. (the "Company") has approved an additional Proposal 3 (the "Supplement") in the Company's definitive proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September 25, 2025 regarding the Special Meeting (the "Special Meeting") scheduled for November 21, 2025. This Supplement is being filed with the SEC on or about October 27, 2025.

The purpose of the Supplement is to request shareholder approval to increase the number of shares of authorized Common Stock from 625,000,000 to 5,000,000,000. Proposal 3 is hereby added to the agenda of the Special Meeting to read as follows:

After careful consideration, the Board has adopted, declared advisable and directed that there be submitted to the stockholders at the Special Meeting a proposed amendment (the "Authorized Share Amendment") of our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Charter") to increase the number of shares of authorized Common Stock from 625,000,000 to 5,000,000,000.

**Background**

Article IV of our Charter currently authorizes the Company to issue up to 625,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share ("Preferred Stock"). As of October 24, 2025, 6,848,891 shares of Common Stock were issued, including no shares held as treasury shares, with warrants outstanding to purchase up to an aggregate of 60,602 shares of Common Stock, 630,225 shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding convertible term loans, 230,662 shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding convertible debentures, 2,308,536 shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding convertible preferred equity, 1,880 shares of Common Stock underlying stock options under the Company's equity incentive plan, and 143,133 shares of Common Stock reserved for possible future issuance pursuant to the remaining authorized and unissued stock awards under the Company's equity incentive plan. The adoption of the proposed Authorized Shares Amendment would provide for an additional 4,375,000,000 authorized shares of Common Stock for future issuance, which would bring the aggregate total of authorized shares of capital stock to 5,010,000,000, composed of 5,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock.

The Authorized Shares Amendment amends and restates the first sentence of Article IV of our Charter in its entirety to read as follows:

The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, "Common Stock" and "Preferred Stock." The total number of shares of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 5,010,000,000. The total number of shares of Common Stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue is 5,000,000,000, having a par value of $0.0001 per share, and the total number of shares of Preferred Stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue is 10,000,000, having a par value of $0.0001 per share.

**Reasons for Seeking Stockholder Approval**

A proposed amendment to our Charter is to ensure that the Company has a sufficient number of authorized shares of our Common Stock for future corporate needs. The additional shares of our Common Stock may be used for various purposes without further stockholder approval (except as required, or limited, by law or the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules (the "Nasdaq Listing Rules")). These purposes may include: (i) raising capital, if the Company has an appropriate opportunity, through offerings of Common Stock or securities that are convertible into Common Stock; (ii) exchanging Common Stock or securities that are convertible into Common Stock for other outstanding

------

securities; (iii) providing equity incentives to employees, officers, directors, customers, consultants, or advisors; (iv) expanding the Company's business through the acquisition of other businesses or assets; (v) stock splits, dividends, and similar transactions; (vi) debt or equity restructuring or refinancing transactions; and (vii) other corporate purposes.

The Board has not proposed the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock with the intent of preventing or discouraging any actual or threatened tender offers or takeover attempts of the Company and the Board is not currently aware of any attempt or plan to acquire control of the Company. Rather, the Authorized Shares Amendment has been prompted by business and financial considerations, as set out above, and it is the intended purpose of the Authorized Shares Amendment to provide greater flexibility to the Board in considering and planning for our potential future corporate needs.

**Rights of Additional Authorized Shares**

The additional authorized shares contemplated by the Authorized Shares Amendment would be a part of the existing class of our Common Stock and, if issued, would have the same rights and privileges as the shares of our Common Stock presently issued and outstanding. Holders of shares of our Common Stock (solely in their capacity as holders of shares of our Common Stock) have no preemptive rights or rights to convert their shares of our Common Stock into any other securities. Accordingly, should the Board elect to issue additional shares of our Common Stock, existing holders of shares of our Common Stock would not have any preferential rights to purchase the shares.

**Effect on Current Stockholders**

Future issuance of Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock could have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share, book value per share, voting power and percentage interest of holdings of current stockholders. In addition, the availability of additional shares of our Common Stock for issuance could, under certain circumstances, discourage or make more difficult efforts to obtain control of the Company under a possible takeover scenario. The Board is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company. This Proposal 3 is not being presented with the intent that it be used to prevent or discourage any acquisition attempt, but nothing would prevent the Board from taking any appropriate actions not inconsistent with its fiduciary duties. The Authorized Shares Amendment does not affect the number of shares or rights of preferred stock authorized.

**Effectiveness of the Amendment**

If this Proposal 3 is approved by the Company's stockholders, the Authorized Shares Amendment will become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, which the Company intends to do promptly following the Special Meeting. If this Proposal 3 is not approved by the Company's stockholders, the Authorized Shares Amendment will not be implemented, and the Company's capitalization will remain as it is currently.

The Authorized Shares Amendment contemplated by this Proposal 3 is not conditioned upon the approval of any of other Proposal.

**Required Vote and Recommendation of Board of Directors**

Approval of Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Abstentions will count as a vote against this Proposal 3. Because Proposal 3 is considered a "routine" proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes.

**THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE "<u>FOR</u>" THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO OUR SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF** 

------

**INCORPORATION, AS AMENDED, TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK FROM 625,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 SHARES.**
