**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

**<u>Strategic Alternative Process</u>**

On May 1, 2026, REE Automotive Ltd. (the "Company" or "REE") announced that in addition to the Company's Cost-Reduction Plan, including its efforts to reduce its monthly operating expenses, the Company has initiated a review of strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value. These strategic alternatives may include a potential sale of the Company or all or a portion of its assets, a merger or other strategic business combination, a reverse merger, strategic partnership(s), licensing opportunities, or other strategic transactions. The Company expects the strategic review process to proceed on an expedited basis. The Company's Board of Directors has engaged TD Securities (USA) LLC as its financial advisor to assist it in the strategic review process.

Daniel Barel, REE's Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are taking decisive steps to streamline our operations and evaluate strategic alternatives, including a potential sale of the Company, with the goal of maximizing value for our shareholders while continuing to support our technology and partners."

While this strategic review is underway, the Company does not intend to disclose or comment on developments related to its review unless and until its Board of Directors has approved a specific transaction, or it has otherwise been determined that further disclosure is appropriate or necessary. There can be no assurance that this strategic review will result in any transaction, nor any assurance as to the outcome or timing thereof.

**<u>Risk Factors</u>**

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company's annual report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 15, 2025, as updated by the REE's subsequent filings with the SEC, including in the section titled "Risk Factors" in Exhibit 99.3 to Form 6-K that we furnished to the SEC on December 30, 2025.

***We are reviewing strategic alternatives and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying and/or completing any strategic transaction, or that any such strategic transaction will result in additional value for our shareholders.***

On May 1, 2026, we announced that our Board of Directors has been reviewing strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value, including but not limited a potential sale of the Company or all or a portion of its assets, a merger or other strategic business combination, a reverse merger, strategic partnership(s), licensing opportunities, or other strategic transactions. The Company's management and Board of Directors have devoted significant time and resources to identifying and evaluating potential strategic alternatives, and the strategic review process continues alongside our current business. REE may be unable to identify strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value, and even if we enter into a binding agreement, there is no guarantee that a transaction will be consummated, and even if executed and consummated, such strategic alternatives may not enhance shareholder value or our financial position. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur, substantial expenses associated with identifying, evaluating and negotiating potential strategic alternatives. There can be no assurance that any potential transaction or other strategic alternative if consummated, will provide greater value to our shareholders than that reflected in the current price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and it may significantly dilute existing shareholders. Even if a definitive agreement is executed in connection with the strategic review process, the consummation of such a transaction would be subject to various closing conditions, including shareholder approval, which may not be obtained. If a proposed transaction is not approved by our shareholders or otherwise fails to close, our share price may decline, we may experience increased volatility in our share price and we might incur substantial costs and management distraction without realizing any benefits. Additionally, any such strategic transaction may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges, may increase our near-and long-term expenditures and may pose significant integration challenges or disrupt our management or business, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results. The timing, structure, scope and outcome of the strategic review process are uncertain, and our Board of Directors may determine at any time to suspend, modify or terminate the process.

The strategic review process is also disruptive to our business operations. The attention of our management team and other employees has been, and may continue to be, diverted from day-to-day operations and the execution of our business strategy while the review process is ongoing. In addition, uncertainty regarding the outcome of the process may adversely affect our ability to retain and motivate key employees, including members of management and employees who are critical to our operations. Uncertainty surrounding the strategic review may also cause our customers, partners, suppliers and other business counterparties to delay, defer or reconsider their business relationships with us, which could negatively affect any potential revenue, operating results and growth prospects. In addition, the process may result in the incurrence of substantial costs, including advisory, legal and other professional fees, regardless of whether any transaction is ultimately completed.

Moreover, we do not intend to make any further announcements regarding the review of strategic alternatives unless and until our Board of Directors determines further disclosure is appropriate or necessary. Accordingly, speculation regarding any developments related to the review of strategic alternatives and perceived uncertainties related to our future could cause the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to fluctuate significantly. If we are unable to complete a strategic transaction of the nature described above, we could experience a reduction in the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and we may be unable to obtain additional financing, which could result in a slowdown of our operations, further reductions-in-force, or other restructuring or bankruptcy protection efforts.

**<u>Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements</u>**
