**NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS**

**To Be Held on October 14, 2025**

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that VirTra, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company") will hold its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at 1:30 p.m. local time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time) for the following purposes, which are described more fully in the accompanying Proxy Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To
 elect five directors to the Company's Board to serve until the Company's 2025 annual meeting of stockholders or until
 their successors are elected and qualified;

2. To
 ratify the appointment of Haynie & Company as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal
 year ending December 31, 2025; and

3. Such
 other business as may appropriately come before the Annual Meeting.

All holders of record of the Company's common stock at the close of business on August 18, 2025 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. In an effort to save costs and help protect the environment, we are using the Notice and Access method of delivery. Instead of receiving paper copies of our proxy materials in the mail, many stockholders will receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials ("Notice"), which provides an internet website address where stockholders can access electronic copies of proxy materials and vote. This website also has instructions for voting by telephone and for requesting paper copies of the proxy materials and proxy card. The Company's 2025 Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2024 are available online at www.iproxydirect.com/VTSI. We encourage you to access and review such materials before voting.

The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the solicitation of proxies. Unless otherwise directed, the proxies will be voted **FOR** the election of the nominees listed in the attached Proxy Statement to be members of the Board of Directors and on other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting, as the named proxies in their best judgment shall decide.

If you submit a proxy, you may revoke such proxy at any time prior to its exercise by notifying the Secretary of the Company in writing at c/o VirTra, Inc., 295 E. Corporate Place, Chandler, Arizona 85225 prior to the Annual Meeting, and, if you virtually attend the Annual Meeting, you may revoke your proxy if previously submitted and vote at the Annual Meeting.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting virtually or in-person, we encourage you to read the Proxy Statement and submit your proxy as soon as possible. You may vote over the Internet or by telephone as instructed on the Notice or by mailing in your paper proxy card if you received one. If you did not receive a paper proxy card, you may request a paper proxy card to submit your vote by mail, if you prefer.

**A shareholder may request credentials for admission to the meeting by completing and promptly returning to the Company the meeting credential order form accompanying this notice. Otherwise, meeting credentials may be obtained at the meeting by persons identifying themselves as shareholders as of the record date. Possession of a proxy card, a voting information form received from a bank or broker or a broker's statement showing shares owned on August 18, 2025 along with proper identification will be required.**

**VIRTRA, INC.**

**PROXY STATEMENT**

**FOR THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS**

**Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Stockholders**

**Meeting to Be Held on October 14, 2025**

The Proxy Statement and annual report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 are available at **https://www.iproxydirect.com/vtsi**.

**GENERAL INFORMATION**

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the "Board") of VirTra, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company," "VirTra," "we," "our" or "us"), of proxies to be voted at our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") and at any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will take place on Tuesday, October 14, 2025 beginning at 1:30 p.m., local time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time), at https://edge.media-server.com/mmc/go/VTSI2025AGM.. You will need to provide your 12-digit control number that is on your proxy card to gain access to the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors of the Company urges you to promptly execute and return your proxy in the enclosed envelope, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting virtually or in-person. This is designed to authenticate stockholders' identities, to allow stockholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that stockholders' instructions have been recorded properly. For additional information on how to obtain directions to be able to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and vote at the Annual Meeting, please write to the Company's Secretary at VirTra, Inc., 295 E. Corporate Place, Chandler, Arizona 85225 or call (480) 968-1488.

Any stockholder submitting a proxy may revoke such proxy at any time prior to its exercise by notifying the Secretary of the Company, in writing, prior to the Annual Meeting. Any stockholder attending the Annual Meeting may revoke his or her proxy and vote personally by notifying the Secretary of the Company at the Annual Meeting.

This Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting, and accompanying proxy are being furnished to record holders at the close of business on August 18, 2025 (the "Record Date"), the record date for the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on Record Date will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. At the close of business on the Record Date, the Company had 11,268,212 outstanding shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), outstanding. Web links and addresses contained in this Proxy Statement are provided for convenience only, and the content on the referenced websites does not constitute a part of this Proxy Statement.

Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Therefore, holders of a majority of the votes of holders of the Common Stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors.

If you are a beneficial holder and do not provide specific voting instructions to your broker, the organization that holds your shares will not be authorized to vote on the election of directors. Accordingly, we encourage you to vote promptly, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting virtually or in-person.

If the accompanying proxy card is signed and returned, the shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the directions on the proxy card. Unless a stockholder specifies otherwise therein, the proxy will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors on all proposals.

Holders of our Common Stock representing one-third of the voting power of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person, virtually, or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote which are present in person, virtually, or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to approve each proposal to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, except for the election of directors, which shall be by plurality vote. Shares represented by proxies which are marked or voted (i) "abstain" with respect to the election of the director nominees and remaining proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, or (ii) to deny discretionary authority on other matters will be counted for the purpose of determining the number of shares represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Such proxies will thus have the same effect as if the shares represented thereby were voted against such nominee or nominees and against the remaining proposals. Shares held by brokers that do not have discretionary authority to vote on a proposal and have not received voting instructions from their clients are considered "broker non-votes." Broker non-votes are considered present or represented for purposes of determining a quorum but will not be considered in determining the number of votes necessary for approval and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for directors or the remaining proposals. As such, for your vote to be counted if you are the beneficial owner of shares held by your broker, you must submit your voting instruction form to your broker.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 2

**QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING**

**What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?**

At our Annual Meeting, holders of our voting stock will be asked to vote on the following proposals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To
 elect five directors to the Company's Board to serve until the Company's 2025 annual meeting of stockholders or until
 their successors are elected and qualified; and

2. To
 ratify the appointment of Haynie & Company as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal
 year ending December 31, 2025; and

3. Such
 other business as may appropriately come before the Annual Meeting.

**Will any other business be considered at the Annual Meeting?**

Our bylaws provide that a stockholder may present a proposal at the Annual Meeting that is not included in this proxy statement only if proper written notice was received by us. No stockholder has given the timely notice required by our bylaws in order to present a proposal at the Annual Meeting. Our Board does not intend to present any other matters for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

**Who is entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting?**

You may vote if you owned shares of our Common Stock as of the close of business on August 15, 2025, the Record Date for determining who is eligible to attend and vote (in-person, virtually or by proxy) at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof, and your stock ownership is reflected in our record books. As of the close of business on the Record Date, our record book reflects that we had outstanding a total of 11,268,212 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Each share of our Common Stock is entitled to one vote.

**How many votes do I have?**

You have one vote for each share of our Common Stock that you owned on the Record Date.

**How many votes may be cast by all stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting?**

A total of 11,268,212 votes may be cast at the Annual Meeting with respect to each proposal, consisting of one vote for each share of our Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors.

**How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?**

Holders of our Common Stock representing one-third of the voting power of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date, represented in person, virtually, or by proxy, must be present at the Annual Meeting in order to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if:

● You are present in person or virtually and vote at the Annual Meeting;

● You have properly and timely submitted your vote as described below under "*How do I vote my shares?* "; or

● You hold your shares in street name, as described below, and you do not provide voting instructions and your broker, bank, trust or other nominee uses its discretion to vote your shares.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 3

If a quorum is not present or represented at the Annual Meeting, the stockholders and proxies entitled to vote will have the power to adjourn the Annual Meeting, without notice other than an announcement at that time, until a quorum is present or represented.

**What is a proxy?**

It is your designation of another person to vote stock you own. That other person is called a proxy. If you designate someone as your proxy in a written document, that document also is called a proxy or a proxy card. When you designate a proxy, you also may direct the proxy how to vote your shares. We refer to this as your "proxy vote." Two of our executive officers, John F. Givens II and Alanna Boudreau, have been designated as proxies for the Annual Meeting.

**What is a proxy statement?**

It is a document that we are required to give you, in accordance with regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), when we ask you to designate proxies to vote your shares of our voting stock at an annual meeting of our stockholders. The proxy statement includes information regarding the matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting and certain other information required by the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ").

**What is the difference between a "stockholder of record" and a "street name" holder?**

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the "stockholder of record" with respect to those shares. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, trust or other nominee, then the broker, bank, trust or other nominee is considered to be the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, while you are considered the beneficial owner of those shares. In that case, your shares are said to be held in "street name." Street name holders generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the broker, bank, trust or other nominee how to vote their shares using the method described below under *"How do I vote my shares?"*.

**How do I vote my shares?**

*Stockholders of Record.* If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in the following ways:

● *By Internet before the Annual Meeting*. If you have received a printed copy of the proxy materials from us by mail, you may vote electronically via the Internet at <u>https://www.iproxydirect.com/VTSI</u>. To be valid, your vote must be received by us by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 13, 2025.

● *By Mail.* If you have received a printed copy of the proxy materials from us by mail, you may vote by completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card where indicated and by mailing or otherwise returning the proxy card in the envelope provided to us. To be valid, your vote by mail must be received by us by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 13, 2025.

● *At the Annual Meeting.* You can vote your shares during the virtual Annual Meeting.

*Beneficial Owners.* If you are a beneficial owner, you may vote by submitting voting instructions to your broker or other nominee holding your shares. You should follow the voting instructions provided by your broker or nominee in order to instruct your broker or nominee on how to vote your shares.

***Your vote is important, and we encourage you to vote promptly.***

**What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?**

If you receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form, it means that you hold shares registered in more than one account. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, you will need to be sure to vote once for each account.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 4

**What if I do not specify how I want my shares voted?**

If you submit a signed proxy card or submit your proxy by Internet and do not specify how you want to vote your shares, we will vote your shares **FOR** the election of each of the five nominees to the Board.

*Note:* If you are a street name holder and fail to instruct your broker, bank, trust or other nominee how you want to vote your shares on a particular matter, those shares are considered to be "uninstructed." If the broker, bank, trust or other nominee is not permitted to exercise discretion, the uninstructed shares will be referred to as "broker non-votes."

***Your vote is very important. We urge you to vote, or to instruct your broker, bank, trust or other nominee how to vote, on all matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting.***

**Can I revoke my proxy and change my vote?**

Yes, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before your proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting. You may revoke your proxy and change your vote by:

● Submitting a later-dated and properly executed proxy card to our Corporate Secretary at the Company's address listed above, which must be received by us before the time of the Annual Meeting;

● Submitting a later-dated vote on the Internet, in a timely manner;

● Delivering a written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary at the Company's address listed above, which must be received by us before the time of the Annual Meeting; or

● Attending the Annual Meeting and voting. Your attendance (virtually) at the Annual Meeting will not by itself revoke a proxy that you have previously submitted.

**What vote is required to approve each item of business included in the Proxy?**

Except as provided by law, according to the Company's bylaws, if a quorum exists, action on a matter by the shareholders (other than the election of Directors) is approved if a majority of the stock having voting power present during the virtual annual meeting or represented by proxy votes in favor of such matter (with "abstentions" and "broker non-votes" not counted as a vote cast with respect to that matter). This means that the number of shares voted **FOR** an action or matter must exceed the number of shares voted "Against" that action or matter. Directors are elected by plurality vote.

**How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote?**

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote **FOR** each of the nominees to the Board of Directors and **FOR** ratification of the appointment of Haynie & Company. We are not aware of any other matters that will be voted on at the 2025 Annual Meeting. If any other business properly comes before the Annual Meeting, however, the persons named as proxies for stockholders will vote on those matters in a manner they consider appropriate.

**What are broker non-votes?**

Generally, a broker non-vote occurs when a bank, broker or other nominee that holds shares of Common Stock in "street name" for customers is precluded from exercising voting discretion on a particular proposal because (i) the beneficial owner has not instructed the bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and (ii) the bank, broker or other nominee lacks discretionary voting power to vote the Common Stock. A bank, broker or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to the approval of "non-routine" matters absent specific voting instructions from the beneficial owners of the Common Stock.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 5

On non-routine items for which you do not give your broker instructions, the shares will be treated as broker non-votes. Proposal 1 is a non-routine item. If you do not give your broker instructions with regard to this proposal, brokers will not be permitted to vote your shares of Common Stock at the Annual Meeting in relation to such proposal.

Our management believes that Proposal 2 (ratification of the appointment of Haynie & Company as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025) is a "routine" matter for which brokers will have authority to vote your shares of Common Stock at the Annual Meeting if you do not give instruction on how to vote your shares. Consequently, if customers do not give any direction, brokers will be permitted to vote shares of Common Stock at the Annual Meeting in relation to Proposal 2. Nevertheless, we encourage you to submit your voting instructions to your broker to ensure your shares of Common Stock are voted at the Annual Meeting.

**How will my shares be voted at the Annual Meeting?**

At the Annual Meeting, the Board (the persons named in the proxy card or, if applicable, their substitutes) will vote your shares of Common Stock as you instruct. If you submit a proxy but do not indicate how you would like to vote your Common Stock, your shares will be voted as the Board recommends, which is as follows:

●  **<u>FOR</u>** Proposal 1 (election of directors);

●  **<u>FOR</u>** Proposal 2 (ratification of auditors).

**Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?**

We expect to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We plan to publish the final voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K ("Form 8-K") filed within four business days of the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available within the four business day timeframe, we plan to file a Form 8-K disclosing preliminary voting results within the required four business days, to be followed as soon as practicable by an amendment to the Form 8-K containing the final voting results.

**What happens if the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned?**

If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, your proxy will remain valid and may be voted when the Annual Meeting is convened or reconvened. You may change or revoke your proxy until it is voted.

**Are members of the Board required to attend the Annual Meeting?**

Directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend the Annual Meeting.

**What happens if stockholders approve one or more proposals but not others?**

Approval of any one proposal is not dependent on stockholders approving any other proposal. Therefore, if stockholders approve one proposal, but not others, the approved proposal would still take effect. For example, if stockholders approve the election of all directors, but do not approve the ratification of auditors, the directors would still be deemed elected by stockholders. Note, however, if Proposal 2 (ratification of auditors) is not approved, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the fiscal year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

**Who pays for the cost of proxy preparation and solicitation?**

We pay for the cost of proxy preparation and solicitation, including the charges and expenses of brokerage firms or other nominees for forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of shares held in street name. We also will reimburse banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and certain fiduciaries for their reasonable expenses incurred in mailing proxy materials to their principals.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 6

**PROPOSAL 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

Five directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting. All of the director nominees were elected at the last annual meeting of shareholders held in October 2024.

Each of the nominees were recommended for nomination for election by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which is comprised solely of independent directors. Each of the nominees has consented to serve as a director if elected. If, at the time of the Annual Meeting, any nominee should be unable to serve, it is the intention of the persons designated as proxies to vote, in their discretion, for such other persons as may be designated as a nominee by the Board.

The Company's bylaws require directors to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election at a meeting at which a quorum is present (with "abstentions" and "broker non-votes" not counted as a vote cast with respect to that director).

All of our directors and director nominees are encouraged to attend the annual meetings of our stockholders.

The Board of Directors held six meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 at which all of the incumbent directors attended.

**Vote Required**

Five directors will be elected by plurality vote. You may vote "for," or "withhold authority" from voting on Proposal 1. Withholding authority and broker non-votes will have the effect of voting against a nominee.

**Board Recommendation**

**THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF EACH OF MESSRS. AYERS, BROWN, GIVENS AND JOHNSON, AND LT. GEN.(R) GERVAIS. PROXIES WILL BE VOTED FOR THE ELECTION OF THE FIVE NOMINEES, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED.**

**Director Nominees and Executive Officers**

The following table sets forth the names, positions and ages of our director nominees, each of whom currently serves as a member of our Board of Directors, as well as our executive officers.

Mr. Brown received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from California State University, San Bernardino and his CPA designation in 1993. We believe Mr. Brown's history as a financial and accounting services professional, and a former auditor and management experience provide the requisite qualifications, skills, perspectives, and experience that make him well qualified to serve on our Board of Directors.

He received his law degree in 1988 from Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, Canada, and was admitted as a lawyer in Alberta in 1989.

His career has included experience in all stages of public company development and venture capital for emerging growth companies across Canada and the United States.

In his last position as special agent in charge, he managed investigative activities in an area covering over 30 counties and directly supervised, trained, and developed special agents for the Bureau. We believe that his experience in law enforcement, from patrol officer to senior policy roles, will contribute to the Company being able to produce and deliver better training products and make him well qualified to serve on our Board of Directors.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 8

***Lt. Gen.(R) Maria R. Gervais.*** t. Gen.(R) Gervais retired from the U.S. Army in August 2024 after 37 years of service. She is a visionary and transformational leader who created and implemented the Army's $2 billion Synthetic Training Environment initiative to revolutionize the Army's collective training enterprise. In her last position as the Deputy Commanding General for U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (May 2021 to August 2024), she provided oversight, with responsibility for leading the talent acquisition, workforce development, and strategic communication for a 1.2 million member organization with a program budget of $5.1 billion. From October 2017 to May 2021, she served as the first Synthetic Training Environment Cross Functional Team Director, where she led the effort to streamline the Army's acquisition process to accelerate modernization of the Army's training enterprise. We believe that her extensive career and focused programmatic, acquisition, and requirement development experience while serving in the U.S. Army, coupled with being a thought leader and subject matter expert in the modeling, simulation, virtual/ gaming, and training domains, uniquely position her to provide the depth and breadth of knowledge necessary to help the Company and the Board of Directors make informed decisions related to the military sales expansion initiatives currently being undertaken and make her well qualified to serve on our Board of Directors.

There are no family relationships between any of the executive officers and directors.

**Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings**

None of our directors, executive officers, significant employees or control persons has been involved in any legal proceeding listed in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past 10 years.

**Board Composition**

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of Directors. The number of directors is fixed by our Board of Directors, subject to our articles of incorporation and our bylaws. Currently, our Board of Directors consists of five directors.

**Director Independence**

Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board of Directors has determined that: (i) Messrs. Ayers, Brown, and Johnson and Lt. Gen.(R) Gervais did not have a material relationship with us that could compromise their ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities and that each of these directors was "independent" as that term is defined under the listing standards of NASDAQ, and (ii) Mr. Givens is not an independent director. Therefore, as of the date of the Proxy Statement, a majority of our Board of Directors consists of "independent directors" as defined under the listing standards of NASDAQ.

**Board Leadership Structure and Board's Role in Risk Oversight**

Our Board of Directors has a Chairman, Mr. Givens. The Chairman has authority, among other things, to preside over Board meetings and set the agenda for Board meetings. Accordingly, the Chairman has substantial ability to shape the work of our Board of Directors. Mr. Givens also serves as our Chief Executive Officer. We believe that we have appropriate oversight by the Board of Directors of our business and affairs as we have a majority of independent directors. However, no single leadership model is right for all companies and at all times. The Board of Directors recognizes that depending on the circumstances, other leadership models, such as the appointment of a lead independent director, might be appropriate. Accordingly, the Board of Directors may periodically review its leadership structure. In addition, the Board of Directors will hold executive sessions in which only independent directors are present.

Our Board of Directors is generally responsible for the oversight of corporate risk in its review and deliberations relating to our activities. Our principal source of risk falls into two categories, financial and product commercialization. The Audit Committee will oversee management of financial risks; our Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding our cash position, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. The Board of Directors regularly reviews plans, results and potential risks related to our product development and commercialization efforts. Our Compensation Committee is expected to oversee risk management as it relates to our compensation plans, policies and practices for all employees including executives and directors, particularly whether our compensation programs may create incentives for our employees to take excessive or inappropriate risks which could have a material adverse effect on us.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 9

**Board Committees**

Our Board of Directors has established three standing committees—the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee—each of which operate under a charter that has been approved by our Board of Directors. We have appointed persons to the Board of Directors and committees of the Board as required meeting the corporate governance requirements of the NASDAQ Listing Rules.

***Audit Committee***

We have appointed four members of our Board of Directors to the Audit Committee, Messrs. Ayers, Brown, and Johnson and Lt. Gen.(R) Gervais. Mr. Brown serves as the chairman of the Audit Committee and satisfies the definition of "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of SEC regulations and the NASDAQ Listing Rules. In making a determination on which member will qualify as a financial expert, our Board of Directors considered the formal education and nature and scope of such members' previous experience.

Our Audit Committee will be responsible for, among other things:

● To oversee our accounting and financial reporting and disclosure processes and the audit of our financial statements.

● To select and retain an independent registered public accounting firm to act as our independent auditors.

● To review with management, the internal audit department and our independent auditors the adequacy and effectiveness of our financial reporting processes, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, including any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.

● To review and approve the functions of our accounting department and approve the hiring or dismissal of the Chief Financial Officer, or such person as may, from time to time, be delegated such internal audit function by the Board.

● To review and discuss with management policies and guidelines to govern the process by which management assesses and manages our risks.

● To establish and oversee procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and the confidential, anonymous submission by Company employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

● To review, approve and oversee any transaction between us and any related person and any other potential conflict of interest situations.

● To meet at least four times a year to fulfill its responsibilities.

● To review the Audit Committee charter at least annually and recommend any proposed changes to the Board for approval.

***Compensation Committee***

We have appointed three members of our Board of Directors, Messrs. Ayers, Brown and Johnson, to the Compensation Committee. Mr. Ayers serves as the chairman of the Compensation Committee. Our Compensation Committee will assist our Board of Directors in the discharge of its responsibilities relating to the compensation of our executive officers.

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things:

● To review and approve the compensation of the executive officers and to approve the compensation of all other executive officers.

● To review, and approve and, when appropriate, recommend to the Board for approval, any employment agreements and any severance arrangements or plans, including any benefits to be provided in connection with a change in control, for the CEO and other executive officers, which includes the ability to adopt, amend and terminate such agreements, arrangements or plans.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 10

● To review our incentive compensation arrangements.

● To review and recommend to the Board for approval the frequency with which we will conduct Say on Pay Votes.

● To review director compensation for service on the Board and Board committees at least once a year and to recommend any changes to the Board.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for, among other things:

● To determine the qualifications, qualities, skills, and other expertise required to be a director and to develop, and recommend to the Board for its approval, criteria to be considered in selecting nominees for director.

● To select and approve the nominees for director to be submitted to a stockholder vote at the annual meeting of stockholders.

● To review the Board's committee structure and composition and to appoint directors to serve as members of each committee and committee chairmen.

● To develop and recommend to the Board for approval standards for determining whether a director has a relationship with us that would impair its independence.

● To review and discuss with management the disclosure regarding the operations of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and director independence, and to recommend that this disclosure be included in our proxy statement or annual report on Form 10-K, as applicable.

● To monitor compliance with our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (the "Code of Ethics"), to investigate any alleged breach or violation of the Code of Ethics and to enforce the provisions of the Code of Ethics.

● To meet at least two times a year.

● To review the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter at least annually and recommend any proposed changes to the Board for approval

**Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, Whistleblower Protection Policy, and Insider Trading**

We have adopted a written Code of Ethics, which outlines the principles of legal and ethical business conduct under which we do business. In addition, we have adopted a written Whistleblower Protection Policy to prevent adverse employment action of any kind against any of our employees who lawfully report information about (i) fraudulent activities within our company (including wire fraud, mail fraud and bank fraud), (ii) violations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act pertaining to fraud against stockholders of the Company, (iii) questionable accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters of the Company, and (iv) conduct by our executives that violate our Code of Ethics, or that cause reports and other public disclosures by us that are not full, fair and accurate. To advance this commitment, we have adopted this Whistleblower Protection Policy. The Code of Ethics and Whistleblower Protection Policy are applicable to all of our directors, officers and employees and are available on our corporate website, *www.virtra.com*. We intend to disclose any amendments to our Code of Ethics, or waivers of its requirements, on our website or in filings under the Exchange Act to the extent required by applicable rules and exchange requirements. Lastly, we have adopted an Insider Trading Policy setting forth the policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by directors, officers and employees that are designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to the Company.

**Procedures for Contacting the Board**

**Procedures for Recommending, Nominating and Evaluating Director Candidates**

The Board will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. A stockholder who wishes to recommend a director candidate for nomination by the Board at an annual meeting of stockholders or for vacancies of the Board that arise between annual meetings must provide the Board with sufficient written documentation to permit a determination by the Board whether such candidate meets the required and desired director selection criteria set forth in our by-laws and our corporate governance guidelines described below.

*Evaluating Director Candidates*

The Board has no formal guidelines or policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by shareholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider several factors when evaluating the appropriate characteristics of candidates for service as a director. The Committee initially evaluates a prospective nominee based on his or her resume and other background information that has been provided to the Company. At a minimum, director candidates must demonstrate ambitious standards of ethics, integrity, independence, sound judgment, strength of character, and meaningful experience and skills in business or other appropriate endeavors. In addition to these minimum qualifications, the Committee considers other factors it deems appropriate based on the current needs and desires of the Board, including specific business and professional experience that is relevant to the Board's needs, including, but not limited to, Board diversity. A member of the Committee will contact, for further review, those candidates who the Committee believes are qualified, who may fulfill a specific Board need and who would otherwise best make a contribution to the Board. The Committee is responsible for conducting, with the assistance of the Corporate Secretary, and subject to applicable law, any inquiries into the background and qualifications of the candidate. Based on the information the Committee learns during this process, it determines which nominee(s) to submit for election. The Committee uses a comparable process for evaluating all director candidates, regardless of the source of the recommendation.

The Committee is authorized to use, as it deems appropriate or necessary, an outside consultant to identify and screen potential director candidates. No outside consultants were used during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 to identify or screen potential director candidates. The Committee will reassess the qualifications of a current director, including the director's attendance and contributions at Board and committee meetings, prior to recommending a director for reelection.

---

<sup>1</sup> Messrs. Ferris and Givens served as Co-Chief Executive Officers from April 2022 until August 15, 2023, when Mr. Ferris became the Executive Chairman and Mr. Givens became the Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Ferris resigned as Executive Chairman effective July 12, 2024.

<sup>2</sup> Mr. Ferris' compensation includes the first portion of a separation agreement payment which is $175,000 per year starting July 15, 2024 through July 15, 2029.

**Executive Employment Agreements**

On April 11, 2022, Mr. Givens was granted 288,889 performance-based restricted stock units pursuant to the Company's 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. Beginning on the last business day of August 2022, a tranche of restricted stock units, having an approximate value of $40,000, based on current prices, could vest if the Company achieved net profit for the twelve months ending June 30, 2022, of at least $2,500,000. For every $500,000 earned more than $2,500,000 another tranche would vest. If the maximum net profit of $7,000,000 was achieved, ten tranches would vest. Similarly, on the last business day of August 2023, a tranche of restricted stock units could vest if the Company achieved a net profit of at least $3,000,000, with the potential to have additional tranches vest up to a maximum of $9,000,000 in net profit. This vesting arrangement continued with the last business day of August 2024, with the minimum net profit threshold being $3,500,000 and the maximum net profit being $11,000,000.

The vesting schedule notwithstanding, the Compensation Committee had the discretion to declare the vesting of any number of restricted stock units should the Company experience unusual results of operations, such as falling below the net profit threshold one year and exceeding the maximum net profit the following year, so long as the total number of restricted stock units declared to be vested did not exceed the amount awarded. Additionally, while a maximum net profit per year had been set for allocation of the available shares, the Compensation Committee had the authority to determine if additional compensation was in the best interests of the Company at that time.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 15

In 2023, the Company determined that the net profit (net income under GAAP) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 was at least $4,500,000 and therefore awarded 29,360 shares of common stock to Mr. Givens (prior to deduction of 11,394 shares to pay the tax withholding liability).

The Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with Mr. Givens effective August 15, 2023 that provides for an annual base salary of $349,860, subject to increases based on the cost of living at a minimum. The agreement automatically extends for additional periods of one year. The contract shall be renewed annually with upward adjustments each year applying the same percentage increase approved for Company-wide cost-of-living adjustments. The employment agreement entitles Mr. Givens to an annual cash bonus if so determined by VirTra's Board of Directors. In addition, the agreement entitles Mr. Givens to participate in any equity incentive plan adopted by the Company.

In October 2023, Mr. Givens was issued 133,333 shares upon settlement of restricted stock units, and in 2024, the Company awarded 118,519 shares of common stock to Mr. Givens (prior to deduction of 46,367 shares to pay the tax withholding liability) in light of the performance of his duties as CEO of the Company.

**Employee Benefit and Equity Incentive Plans**

***Stock Options***

 ****

Prior to October 2017, we periodically issued non-qualified incentive stock options to the directors under a stock option compensation plan approved by the Board of Directors in 2009. Terms of option grants were at the discretion of the Board of Directors and were generally seven years. These awards were suspended as of October 1, 2017. As of December 31, 2024, there were no options outstanding or exercisable.

On March 9, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a program under which we could repurchase outstanding vested Company stock options on an exception basis. Under the terms of the program, our Chief Executive Officer could cause us to redeem for cash any positive stock options for the net value of the stock option (stock price on the redemption date minus strike price). The cash redemption of stock options held by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Operating Officer were to be approved by our independent directors. We retained the right to reject any redemption request that was not in the best interest of our Company.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, Bob Ferris redeemed 10,000 and 15,000 previously awarded options reaching expiration. The redemptions resulted in $59,600 and $29,251 of additional compensation expense, respectively.

***Profit Sharing***

 ****

We have a discretionary profit-sharing program that pays out a percentage of our profits each year as a cash bonus to active and eligible employees. The cash payment is typically split into two equal payments and distributed pro-rata to employees in good standing at the time of distribution in April and October of the following year after the completion of the annual financial audit. For the years ending December 31, 2024, and 2023, the amount expensed to operations for this program was $216,255 and $1,260,431, respectively.

***2017 Equity Incentive Plan***

On October 6, 2017, the VirTra, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Plan") was approved by our stockholders. The Equity Plan is intended to make available incentives that will assist us in attracting, retaining and motivating employees, including officers, consultants and directors. We may provide these incentives through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units and other cash or stock-based awards.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 16

A total of 1,187,500 shares of our Common Stock were initially authorized and reserved for issuance under the Equity Plan. This reserve automatically increased beginning on January 1, 2018, and automatically increases each subsequent anniversary through 2027, by an amount equal to the smaller of (a) 3% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or (b) an amount determined by the Board.

Appropriate adjustments will be made in the number of authorized shares and other numerical limits in the Equity Plan and in outstanding awards to prevent dilution or enlargement of participants' rights in the event of a stock split or other change in our capital structure. Shares subject to awards which expire or are cancelled or forfeited will again become available for issuance under the Equity Plan. The shares available will not be reduced by awards settled in cash or by shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations. Only the net number of shares issued upon the exercise of stock appreciation rights or options exercised by means of a net exercise or by tender of previously owned shares will be deducted from the shares available under the Equity Plan.

The Equity Plan will be generally administered by the compensation committee of our Board of Directors. Subject to the provisions of the Equity Plan, the compensation committee will determine in its discretion the persons to whom and the times at which awards are granted, the sizes of such awards and all of their terms and conditions. However, the compensation committee may delegate to one or more of our officers the authority to grant awards to persons who are not officers or directors, subject to certain limitations contained in the Equity Plan and award guidelines established by the committee. The compensation committee will have the authority to construe and interpret the terms of the Equity Plan and awards granted under it. The Equity Plan provides, subject to certain limitations, for indemnification by us of any director, officer or employee against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with any legal action arising from such person's action or failure to act in administering the Equity Plan.

The Equity Plan authorized the compensation committee, without further stockholder approval, to provide for the cancellation of stock options or stock appreciation rights with exercise prices more than the fair market value of the underlying shares of Common Stock in exchange for new options or other equity awards with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock or a cash payment.

The Equity Plan limits the grant date fair value of all equity awards and the amount of cash compensation that may be provided to a non-employee director in any fiscal year to an aggregate of $300,000.

Awards may be granted under the Equity Plan to our employees, including officers, directors or consultants or those of any present or future parent or subsidiary corporation or other affiliated entity. All awards will be evidenced by a written agreement between us and the holder of the award and may include any of the following:

● *Stock options*. We may grant non-statutory stock options or incentive stock options (as described in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), each of which gives its holder the right, during a specified term (not exceeding 10 years) and subject to any specified vesting or other conditions, to purchase a number of shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share determined by the administrator, which may not be less than the fair market value of a share of our Common Stock on the date of grant.

● *Stock appreciation rights*. A stock appreciation right gives its holder the right, during a specified term (not exceeding 10 years) and subject to any specified vesting or other conditions, to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our Common Stock between the date of grant of the award and the date of its exercise. We may pay the appreciation in shares of our Common Stock or in cash.

● *Restricted stock*. The administrator may grant restricted stock awards either as a bonus or as a purchase right at such price as the administrator determines. Shares of restricted stock remain subject to forfeiture until vested, based on such terms and conditions as the administrator specifies. Holders of restricted stock will have the right to vote on the shares and to receive any dividends paid, except that the dividends will be subject to the same vesting conditions as the related shares.

● *Restricted stock units*. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of our Common Stock (or their value in cash) at a future date without payment of a purchase price, subject to vesting or other conditions specified by the administrator. Holders of restricted stock units have no voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends unless and until shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement of such awards. However, the administrator may grant restricted stock units that entitle their holders to dividend equivalent rights subject to the same vesting conditions as the related units.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 17

● *Performance shares and performance units*. Performance shares and performance units are awards that will result in a payment to their holder only if specified performance goals are achieved during a specified performance period. Performance share awards are rights denominated in shares of our Common Stock, while performance unit awards are rights denominated in dollars. The administrator establishes the applicable performance goals based on one or more measures of business performance enumerated in the Equity Plan, such as revenue, gross margin, net income or total stockholder return. To the extent earned, performance share and unit awards may be settled in cash or in shares of our Common Stock. Holders of performance shares or performance units have no voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends unless and until shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement of such awards. However, the administrator may grant performance shares that entitle their holders to dividend equivalent rights subject to the same vesting conditions as the related units.

● *Cash-based awards and other stock-based awards*. The administrator may grant cash-based awards that specify a monetary payment or range of payments or other stock-based awards that specify a number or range of shares or units that, in either case, are subject to vesting or other conditions specified by the administrator. Settlement of these awards may be in cash or shares of our Common Stock, as determined by the administrator. Their holder will have no voting rights or right to receive cash dividends unless and until shares of our Common Stock are issued pursuant to the award. The administrator may grant dividend equivalent rights with respect to other stock-based awards.

In the event of a change in control as described in the Equity Plan, the acquiring or successor entity may assume or continue all or any awards outstanding under the Equity Plan or substitute substantially equivalent awards. Any awards which are not assumed or continued in connection with a change in control or are not exercised or settled prior to the change in control will terminate effective as of the time of the change in control. The compensation committee may provide for the acceleration of vesting of any or all outstanding awards upon such terms and to such extent as it determines, except that the vesting of all awards held by members of the Board of Directors who are not employees will automatically be accelerated in full. The Equity Plan also authorizes the compensation committee, in its discretion and without the consent of any participant, to cancel each or any outstanding award denominated in shares upon a change in control in exchange for a payment to the participant with respect to each share subject to the cancelled award of an amount equal to the excess of the consideration to be paid per share of Common Stock in the change in control transaction over the exercise price per share, if any, under the award.

The Equity Plan will continue in effect until it is terminated by the administrator, provided, however, that all awards will be granted, if at all, within 10 years of its effective date. The administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the Equity Plan at any time, provided that without stockholder approval, the plan cannot be amended to increase the number of shares authorized, change the class of persons eligible to receive incentive stock options, or effect any other change that would require stockholder approval under any applicable law or listing rule.

**Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Fiscal Year-End**

**<u>PROPOSAL 2—RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF</u>**

**<u>THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM</u>**

Haynie & Company acted as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The Audit Committee of has appointed Haynie & Company to act in that capacity for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. A representative of Haynie & Company is not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Although the Company is not required to submit this appointment to a vote of the stockholders, the Audit Committee believes that it is appropriate as a matter of policy to request that stockholders ratify Haynie & Company's appointment as principal independent registered public accounting firm. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will investigate the reasons for stockholder rejection and consider whether to retain Haynie & Company or appoint another independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

The following table shows the fees that were billed for the audit and other services provided by Haynie & Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2024** | **2023** |
| Audit Fees | $127012 | $111204 |
| Audit-Related Fees |  |  |
| Tax Fees |  |  |
| All Other Fees | - | - |
| Total <sup>(1)</sup> | $127012 | $111204 |

---

*Audit Fees*—This category includes the audit of our annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, review of financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in connection with engagements for those fiscal years. This category also includes advice on audit and accounting matters that arose during, or as a result of, the audit or the review of interim financial statements.

*Audit-Related Fees*—This category consists of assurance and related services by the independent registered public accounting firm that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported above under "Audit Fees." The services for the fees disclosed under this category include consultation regarding our correspondence with the SEC, other accounting consulting and other audit services.

*Tax Fees*—This category consists of professional services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm for tax compliance and tax advice. The services for the fees disclosed under this category include tax return preparation and technical tax advice.

*All Other Fees*—This category consists of fees for other miscellaneous items.

Pursuant to the Audit Committee's charter, all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm must be pre-approved. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of service. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Consistent with the Audit Committee's policy, all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

In considering the nature of the services provided by the independent registered public accounting firms for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Audit Committee determined that such services were compatible with the provision of independent audit services. The Audit Committee discussed these services with the independent registered public accounting firms and management for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 to determine that they were permitted under the rules and regulations concerning auditors' independence promulgated by the SEC to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 19

**REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE**

Our Audit Committee oversees the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including internal control systems. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of the Company's audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Board of Directors reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, including a discussion of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

In addition, the Board of Directors discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's Auditing Standard No. 16 "Communications with Audit Committees." The Board of Directors met with the independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting.

The Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm's independence.

The Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financials be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Board of Directors approved the inclusion of the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC.

The affirmative vote of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required to ratify the appointment of Haynie & Company as our independent registered public accounting firm. You may vote "for," "against" or "abstain" from voting on Proposal 2. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote "against" Proposal 2. Because broker non-votes are not considered present for the foregoing purpose, they will have no effect on the vote on Proposal 2.

**Recommendation**

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE <u>FOR</u> RATIFICATION OF HAYNIE & COMPANY AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.**

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 20

**SECURITY OWNERSHIP**

The following table sets forth information about the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of August 18, 2025, the Record Date for:

● each person known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Common Stock;

● each named executive officer;

● each of our directors; and

● all of our executive officers and directors as a group.

Unless otherwise noted below, the address for each beneficial owner listed on the table is in care of VirTra, Inc., 295 E. Corporate Place, Chandler, AZ 85225. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the tables below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. We have based our calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership on 11,268,212 shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date.

In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of Common Stock subject to options or issuable upon conversion of preferred stock held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

**DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS**

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide us with copies of those filings. To our knowledge, based solely upon a review of copies of reports received by us pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and written representations that no other reports were required to be filed, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders under Section 16(a) with respect to 2024 were satisfied, except for one late filing by Mr. Jeffrey Brown and one late filing by Ms. Alanna Boudreau.

VirTra, Inc. Proxy Statement – page 21

**CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS**

We have a written policy for the review, approval or ratification of transactions with related parties or conflicted transactions. When such transactions arise, they are referred to our Audit Committee or Board of Directors for its consideration.

In addition to the compensation arrangements, including employment, termination of employment and change in control arrangements and indemnification arrangements, discussed in "Executive Compensation" above, the following is a description of each transaction since January 1, 2024 and each currently proposed transaction in which:

● We have been or will be a participant;

● the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years; and

● any of our directors, executive officers or beneficial owners of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company did not issue stock options to its executive officers or the members of the Board of Directors. Restricted stock units were awarded to its executive officers in 2024 and 2023 as disclosed in "Executive Compensation" above.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company redeemed 10,000 and 15,000, respectively, previously awarded options reaching expiration from the Company's former Executive Chairman. These redemptions eliminated the stock options and resulted in a total of $59,600 and $29,251 in additional compensation expense in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, related parties exercised 5,000 and 15,000 previously awarded options for the exercise price of $20,150 and $54,900, respectively, resulting in purchase and issuance of Common Stock to the former Executive Chair and one member of the Board of Directors.

Nothing in this section shall be interpreted or construed to require the inclusion of information about any stockholder proposal in our Proxy Statement.

**"HOUSEHOLDING" OF PROXY MATERIALS**

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g. brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with accountholders who are stockholders will be householding our proxy materials. As indicated in the notice previously provided by these brokers to stockholders, a single proxy statement and annual report or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from an affected stockholder. Once you have received notice from your broker or us that they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise.

Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy materials at their address and would like to request householding of their communications should contact their broker or, if a stockholder is a direct holder of shares of our Common Stock, they should submit a written request to our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, located at 17 Battery Place, New York, NY 10004. The transfer agent's telephone number is (212) 509-4000.

To delist yourself from householding in the future you may write the Company at VirTra, Inc., Attention: Corporate Secretary, 295 E. Corporate Place, Chandler, Arizona 85225, or call (480) 968-1488. Upon written or oral request directed to the Company at the address or phone number listed above, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the proxy materials.

**OTHER MATTERS**

We do not know of any other matters that may be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other business does properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote as they deem in our best interests.
