PRESS RELEASE

**Aptera Motors Corp. Registration Statement Now Effective with the SEC – Shareholders May Begin Broker Transfers**

Carlsbad, CA – October 3, 2025 – Aptera Motors Corp. is pleased to announce that its registration statement was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 30, 2025. This important milestone enables Aptera shareholders to transfer their Class B common stock from Computershare, the company's transfer agent, to their brokerage accounts using the Direct Registration System (DRS). The effectiveness of the registration statement does not mean Aptera shares are trading or publicly listed on an exchange. The company is actively coordinating with Nasdaq to finalize our public listing date. While the exact timing remains under discussion, we can confirm that the listing will not occur before October 14, 2025. This window ensures shareholders have sufficient time to complete transfers into their brokerage accounts. Once the date is confirmed, we will announce it in advance via press release to ensure all stakeholders are appropriately informed.

Shareholders who currently hold Aptera shares with Computershare now have the option to initiate transfers to their broker accounts via DRS. It is important to note that Aptera shares are not yet trading on an exchange. When contacting a broker, shareholders may be asked to provide the CUSIP Number (03835W104) and a statement of their shares from their Computershare account, which can be downloaded from the "Documents" section after logging in. Shareholders should clarify to their broker that these are book-entry shares registered pursuant to an effective registration statement (File No. 333-289898) but not yet trading on any exchange.

For those needing to access or manage their holdings with Computershare, visit <u>www.computershare.com/investor</u> and ensure "United States" is selected in the top-right corner. Existing users can log in directly, while new users should register and may receive a verification code by mail, which could take up to seven business days or longer for international addresses. Once logged in, account statements are available under the "Documents" section.

Shareholders seeking assistance can contact Computershare by phone at 1-866-595-6048 (U.S.) or 1-781-575-2798 (International), by email at <u>web.queries@computershare.com</u>, or by mail at PO Box 43007, Providence, RI 02940-3007.
