Item 5.07 Submission
of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As previously disclosed, Xos, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Xos”), entered into an Arrangement Agreement on January 11, 2024 (the “Arrangement Agreement”), with
ElectraMeccanica Vehicles Corp., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (“ElectraMeccanica”), pursuant to which Xos agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of ElectraMeccanica (the
“ElectraMeccanica Shares”) pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Arrangement”).
On March 20, 2024, Xos held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) at which the stockholders voted on the proposals set forth below, each of which
is described in greater detail in the joint proxy statement/management information circular on Schedule 14A, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2024 (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Circular”).
As of January 22, 2024, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 5,954,294 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Xos (“Xos Shares”) issued
and outstanding. At the Special Meeting, a quorum of 3,212,530 Xos Shares, representing 53.95% of the total Xos Shares outstanding and entitled to vote, were represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting. The final voting results for each
proposal are described below:
The Xos Share Issuance Proposal — The proposal to approve the issuance of Xos Shares to shareholders of ElectraMeccanica pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, which is further described in the Joint Proxy Statement/Circular, including in the section entitled “The Arrangement Agreement and Related Agreements” (the “Xos Share Issuance Proposal”).
Approval of the Xos Share Issuance Proposal required the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at the Special Meeting on the Xos Share Issuance Proposal. The Xos Share Issuance Proposal received the affirmative vote of approximately 99.2% of Xos Shares represented at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal and, therefore, was approved.

The Xos Adjournment Proposal—The
proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in the event there
are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Xos Share Issuance Proposal (the “Xos Adjournment Proposal”). Approval of the Xos Adjournment Proposal required the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the
voting power of Xos Shares present or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote on the Xos Adjournment Proposal. The Xos Adjournment Proposal received the affirmative vote of approximately 99.3% of Xos Shares represented at
the Special Meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal and, therefore, was approved. Although the vote was taken, no motion to adjourn was made because the Xos Share Issuance Proposal had passed.
