**Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.**

On November 18, 2025, Greenwave Technology Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), received a Staff Determination Letter (the "Staff Determination Letter") from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff (the "Staff") based on the Company's non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the "Filing Rule"), as previously notified by the Staff on May 23, 2025 and August 22, 2025. The basis for the Staff Determination Letter is that the Company has not yet filed its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025 on November 19, 2025 and is actively working towards the filing of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025 to ensure full compliance with the Filing Rule.

The Staff Determination Letter noted that, after the Staff's review of the materials submitted by the Company on September 5, 2025, it granted the Company an exception until November 17, 2025 (the "Exception Deadline Date") to regain compliance with the Filing Rule. It further stated that since the Company failed to file the its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 by the Exception Deadline Date and failed to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025 by its due date, the trading of the Company's securities will be suspended from the Nasdaq at the opening of business on November 28, 2025 unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination by November 25, 2025. The Staff Determination Letter has no immediate effect and will not immediately result in the suspension of trading or delisting of the Company's securities.

The Staff Determination Letter notified the Company that it may appeal the Staff's determination by requesting a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel ("Hearings Panel"), pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. A request for a hearing regarding one or more delinquent filings will automatically stay the suspension of the Company's securities for a period of at least 15 calendar days from the date of the hearing request. By Nasdaq rule, when a company requests a hearing for one or more late SEC periodic public filings, it may also request an extension of the stay pending the hearing date and subsequently during any additional extension period granted by a Hearings Panel following the hearing. Hearings are typically scheduled to occur approximately 30-45 days after the date of the hearing request. The Company intends to timely submit a request for a hearing including a stay of the suspension of the Company's securities pending the hearing and the Hearings Panel's decision. There can be no assurance that the Hearings Panel will grant any of the Company's requests for additional time.
