On July 3, 2025, Plug Power Inc. (the "Company") held its annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). Proxies were solicited pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. At the Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders voted upon the following matters:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The election of each of Mark J. Bonney, Gregory L. Kenausis and George C. McNamee as a Class II Director, each to hold office
until the Company's 2028 annual meeting of stockholders and until such director's successor is duly elected and qualified
or until such director's earlier resignation or removal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The approval of an amendment to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the "Charter"),
to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock from 1,500,000,000 shares to 3,000,000,000 shares (the
"Authorized Share Increase Proposal").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The approval of an amendment to the Company's Charter to, at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board
of Directors"), effect a reverse stock split with respect to the Company's issued common stock, including stock held by the
Company as treasury shares, at a ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not more than 1-for-200, with the exact ratio to be determined by
the Board of Directors (the "Reverse Stock Split Proposal").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The approval of an amendment to the Company's Charter to provide that the authorized number of shares of the Company's
common stock or undesignated preferred stock may be increased or decreased by the requisite vote of the holders of capital stock entitled
to vote thereon, without either class voting as a separate class irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the
Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Class Vote Amendment Proposal").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The approval of an amendment to the Company's Charter to provide for exculpation of officers from breaches of fiduciary duty
to the extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Officer Exculpation Amendment Proposal").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. The approval of an amendment to the Company's 2021 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended (the "2021 Plan"),
to increase the number of shares of the Company's common stock reserved thereunder by 40,000,000 shares, from 51,400,000 shares
to 91,400,000 shares (the ""2021 Plan Amendment Proposal").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The approval of the non-binding, advisory resolution regarding the compensation of the Company's named executive officers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. The ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as the Company's independent registered public accounting
firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

Holders of the Company's common stock were entitled to one vote per share on each proposal. As previously described in the Company's proxy statement, the holder of record of the one outstanding share of the Company's Series F Mirroring Preferred Stock was entitled to 45,000,000,000 votes and had the right to vote together with the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock as a single class exclusively with respect to the Reverse Stock Split Proposal. Such holder voted in the same proportion as the shares of common stock (excluding any shares of common stock that were not voted) were voted on the Reverse Stock Split Proposal.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders elected each of Mark J. Bonney, Gregory L. Kenausis and George C. McNamee as a Class II Director, approved the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, the 2021 Plan Amendment Proposal and the non-binding, advisory resolution regarding the compensation of the Company's named executive officers, and ratified the appointment of Deloitte as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. As the Authorized Share Increase Proposal, the Class Vote Amendment Proposal and the Officer Exculpation Amendment Proposal each failed to receive the affirmative vote of a majority of shares outstanding entitled to vote on each such matter, such proposals were not approved.

Set forth below are the final voting results for each matter voted upon:

**Proposal 1 - Election of Class II Directors**
