Prospectus Summary

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding to invest in our common stock. You should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section, our historical consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, each included elsewhere in this prospectus. Unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise, the words “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” or “our Company,” and “Volcon” refer to Volcon, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

Overview

We are an all-electric, off-road powersports vehicle company developing and building electric two and four-wheel motorcycles and utility terrain vehicles (UTVs), also known as side-by-sides, along with a complete line of upgrades and accessories. In October 2020, we began building and testing prototypes for our future offerings with two off-road motorcycles – the Grunt and the Runt. We are currently taking orders on our website for these initial offerings, and expect to begin delivering the initial vehicles in the third quarter of 2021. Commencing in 2022, we expect to expand our offerings with the Volcon Stag, a UTV, followed in 2023 by a higher performance, longer range UTV called the Beast.

Both our dirt bikes and UTVs feature unique, load-managing frames with industrial designs protected by design patents. Additional patents have been filed for the unique design of Volcon’s electric motors.

We initially intend to sell and distribute our vehicles and accessories in the U.S. on a direct-to-consumer sales platform. We are currently negotiating dealership agreements with retail partners to display and sell our vehicles and accessories. Once we have dealers in each state, customers can either purchase a vehicle and accessories through our website and pick them up at a local dealership, or they can buy them directly from a local dealership. Some of these retail partners will also provide warranty and repair services to our customers. To date, we have not entered into any dealership agreements.

As of August 12, 2021, U.S. customers have made deposits for 282 Grunts and 2 Runts, plus accessories and a deliver fee representing total deposits of $1.9 million. These orders are cancelable by the customer until the vehicle is delivered and after a 14-day acceptance period, therefore the deposits have been recorded as deferred revenue. Based on our current production capacity, we believe we will deliver all of these vehicles and accessories by November 2021.

Our vehicles and accessories will be sold globally in a three-phase rollout of export sales– Latin America importers in 2021, Canada, Europe, and Africa in 2022 and Southeast Asia plus Australia in 2023. Export sales are executed with individual importers in each country that buy vehicles by the container. Each importer will sell vehicles to local dealers or directly to customers. Local dealers will provide warranty and repair services for vehicles purchased in their country.

As of August 12, 2021, we have received orders from Latin America importers for 92 Grunts. Payment for these orders is due prior to shipment and are cancelable until shipped. Based on our current production capacity, we believe we will be able to fulfill all pending orders by November 2021.

The estimated fulfillment of all orders we have received assumes we are successfully able to increase our production capacity in the future, of which there is no assurance. We only recently commenced assembling vehicles and we may encounter delays or setbacks as we increase production. If we are unable to satisfy pending orders on a timely basis, customers may cancel their orders.

All Volcon vehicles are assembled in a leased production facility in Round Rock, Texas. We signed a lease for a new production facility in Round Rock, Texas that will allow us to increase our production capacity. We expect to move into this facility in the fourth quarter of 2021. We have signed a lease for a built-to-suit manufacturing facility on 53 acres in Liberty Hill, Texas, 25 miles northwest of downtown Austin, from an entity controlled by our founders. We expect to begin production at this facility in the third quarter of 2022.

Our Industry

The powersports industry is made up of on-road and off-road motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), UTVs, personal watercraft, snow machines, and portable generators. We are focusing solely on off-road motorcycles and UTVs. The ATV market, in which a single rider sits on top of a four-wheeled vehicle (as opposed to sitting inside a UTV), is not a market we intend to pursue because of significant safety, legal liability and legislative challenges.

The off-road powersports industry has been on a steady path of growth since the recession of 2008. Off-road new unit sales have grown 46.5% over 2019. We believe this growth has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, as more consumers seek safe, outdoor recreation.

Outdoor recreation is a major driver of the American economy. In 2019, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) found that outdoor recreation drives $788 billion of economic activity in America. The bureau noted that two and four-wheel powersports make up $39 billion of that total–the fourth largest total of all outdoor recreation activities.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, off-road powersports were on a steady path of growth. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, that growth accelerated rapidly. Year-over-year growth for off-road motorcycling, despite a short contraction in March and April of 2020, has risen 46.5%.

While post-COVID pandemic may not see growth rates this steep, we believe the new culture of escape and outdoor activities will continue to drive off-road powersports recreation. The industry is forecast to deliver $15 billion in new unit sales by 2025 with $48 billion in total economic impact. We believe there are currently no all-electric off-road powersports companies, and few traditional powersports companies make electric products, so off-road electric vehicle data does not exist yet.

Our Products

We will feature motorcycle and UTV products that are all-electric and for off-road use only. The off-road market is growing faster than on-road and on-road products require costly levels of certification, homologation and compliance with the Department of Transportation (DOT), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and other government regulators. As such, we are solely focusing on the off-road market. Due to these regulations, our vehicles are not legal for on-road use. All vehicles will come with a warning label stating “This vehicle is designed and manufactured for off road use only. It does not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standards and operation on public streets, roads, or highways is illegal”, and therefore our vehicles cannot be legally registered for on-road use in any state. In addition to powersports vehicles, we will source, market and sell a complete line of accessories and upgrades. These will feature parts designed to increase performance or appearance, in addition to practical add-ons to equip Volcon vehicles for hunters, ranchers and farmers.

The Grunt

In the third quarter of 2021, the Volcon Grunt will be the first product to market. The Grunt is an electric off-road motorcycle with unique design features and capabilities.

The Grunt’s distinctive low height and oversize tires are designed to make it look like the minibikes of the 1970s and ‘80s. These unique elements of the Grunt are not just for styling, but we believe they help make it easier to ride as compared to other off-road motorcycles on the market. The low seat height and big tires help make the Grunt stable at all speeds on all surfaces. The electric drivetrain has no clutch and no gears, making it easy for almost anyone to ride.

Although the Grunt and Runt can be used as delivered, we have developed an app, which can be downloaded at no charge by anyone, that we believe will enhance the riding experience. The Grunt has a small dash with limited data; however, the rider can use their phones and the app (subject to the rider’s cellular connectivity) as a dashboard by mounting it on the handlebars. The app will make it easier for users to set ride modes, check battery status, and update the bike’s firmware. In the future we plan to add a trip navigation feature to the app.

The Grunt is designed for family off-road adventures, work on the farm or fun transport around private land. Its range can be up to 35 miles (with an optional second battery that provides an additional 35 miles) in its “explore” mode setting and it charges in less than three hours from a standard wall outlet.

The Runt

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Volcon Runt will also be available to the market. The Runt shares the styling of its big-brother Grunt, but it is sized for seven to 14-year-olds.

The Runt is easy to ride and includes features that we believe no other minibike has that will make parents feel more comfortable with their children on two wheels.

Like the Grunt, the Runt’s large tires and low-slung chassis make it extremely easy to ride. The Runt rider can see speed, battery charge and ride mode via the ride control app.

The app will also work with the Runt and will let the parents of the child login on their own phones to control the maximum acceleration and speed of the Runt. They can also geo-fence the child and have the Runt stop working beyond a certain boundary. Notifications for the child exceeding a certain speed or tipping the bike over can also be sent to the parents via text.

The Runt will have a range of up to 35 miles in its “explore” mode setting and charges in less than three hours from a standard wall outlet.

Future Products

We expect to introduce the Volcon Stag in the second half of 2022. The Stag will be Volcon’s utility/sport UTV with a 64” width to ensure it is able to operate in all states, including the many states with 65”-maximum-width trails. It will feature hauling and towing abilities for work on a farm or job site, but also fold-up seating for four so it can be used for weekend family adventures. We are designing the electric drivetrain to be quiet and reliable. We believe the electric nature of the Stag will also mean low maintenance. Where a gas UTV motor has over 1,000 moving parts, the Stag’s motor will have just two.

The Volcon Beast, which we expect will be available in late 2023, will be the flagship model in the Volcon line. We are designing the Beast to have superior range and speed, but still be able to haul and tow far more than a traditional UTV.

The Beast will feature a category-leading suspension, including an optional computer-controlled, fully active suspension system. Its long wheelbase will easily accommodate five along with hauling space and a 3,000-pound towing capacity, and like all Volcon vehicles, the Beast will feature the Ride Control app.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Our business and ability to execute our business strategy are subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before you decide to buy our securities. In particular, you should consider the following risks, which are discussed more fully in the section entitled “Risk Factors”:

·		Our losses from operations could continue to raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern requires that we obtain sufficient funding to finance our operations.

·		We are an early-stage company, and although pre-orders of our initial vehicles have commenced, we have not delivered any vehicles to customers.

We may experience delays or other complications in the design, manufacture, launch and production ramp of our vehicles which could harm our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We are dependent on our suppliers, the majority of which are single-source suppliers, and the inability of these suppliers to deliver necessary components of our products according to our schedule and at prices, quality levels and volumes acceptable to us, or our inability to efficiently manage these components, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.

We are currently taking orders for two vehicles, The Grunt and The Runt, and if these vehicles fail to perform as expected, our reputation could be harmed and our ability to develop, market and sell our vehicles could be harmed.

Our success will depend on our ability to economically produce our vehicles at scale, and our ability to produce vehicles of sufficient quality and appeal to customers on schedule and at scale is unproven.

We may not succeed in establishing, maintaining and strengthening our brand, which could materially and adversely affect customer acceptance of our products, which could in turn materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Increases in costs, disruption of supply, or shortage of materials could harm our business.

An adverse determination in any significant product liability claim against us could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The markets in which we operate are in their infancy and highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in these industries as the industry further develops. We currently face competition from new and established competitors and expect to face competition from others in the future, including competition from companies with new technology.

Potential tariffs or a global trade war could increase our costs and could further increase the cost of our products, which could adversely impact the competitiveness of our products and our financial results.

·		Pre-orders for our vehicles are cancelable and the deposit fully refundable, and there can be no assurance that such pre-orders will be converted into sales.

·		Our sales will be dependent on the development of a network of dealers, some of whom will also provide warranty support. To date, we have not entered into any dealer agreements in the United States.

Our success is dependent upon the success of the off-road vehicle industry and upon consumers’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles.

The electric vehicle market and its associated technologies are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes. Developments in alternative technologies may adversely affect the demand for our vehicles.

The battery efficiency of our vehicles may decline over time, which may negatively influence potential customers’ decisions whether to purchase our vehicles.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as the term is used in The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (JOBS Act), and therefore, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including:

a requirement to only have two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related selected financial data and management’s discussion and analysis;

exemption from the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting;

reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and

exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory stockholder vote on executive compensation and any golden parachute payments.

We may take advantage of these provisions for up to five years or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700.0 million in market value of our capital stock held by non-affiliates or issue more than $1.07 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available benefits of the JOBS Act. We have taken advantage of some of the reduced reporting requirements in this prospectus. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock. In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of the following risks, together with all other information set forth in this prospectus, including the financial statements and the related notes, before making a decision to buy our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to the Company’s Business, Operations, and Industry

Our losses from operations could continue to raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern requires that we obtain sufficient funding to finance our operations.

We do not have sufficient existing cash and cash equivalents, without giving effect to the proceeds from this offering, to support operations for at least one year following the date our financial statements included in this prospectus are issued. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2020, stating that our recurring losses from operations since inception and required additional funding to finance our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding, we could be forced to delay the rollout of our vehicles, and our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern. After the completion of this offering, future financial statements may continue to disclose substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our independent auditor registered public accounting firm previously identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to remediate these material weaknesses or we or our auditor identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations, which may adversely affect our business and stock price.

In connection with the preparation and audit of our consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2020, our auditor identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. These material weaknesses are as follows:

	·	Inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel

	·	Insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, financial reporting and record keeping (no control procedures in place)

We have begun efforts to remediate these material weaknesses including hiring a chief financial officer and a controller and have begun developing written policies and procedures. While we believe these efforts will remediate the material weaknesses, we may not be able to complete our evaluation, testing or any required remediation in a timely fashion, or at all. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date and may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to our material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting or that they will prevent or avoid potential future material weaknesses. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the possibility of human error and the risk of fraud. If we are unable to remediate the material weakness, our ability to record, process and report financial information accurately, and to prepare financial statements within the time periods required of public companies could be adversely affected which, in turn, may adversely affect our reputation and business and the market price of our common stock. In addition, any such failures could result in litigation or regulatory actions by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, loss of investor confidence, delisting of our securities and harm our reputation and financial condition, or diversion of financial and management resources from the operation of our business.

We are an early-stage company, and although orders of our initial vehicles have commenced, we have not delivered any vehicles to customers.

We formed our corporation in February 2020. Since formation, we have focused on designing our initial vehicles, the Grunt and the Runt, and commencing the marketing of such vehicles by accepting reservations on our website. To date, we have not delivered any vehicles to customers or completed any sales to customers of vehicles. We may never achieve commercial success. We have no meaningful historical financial data upon which we may base our projected revenue and operating expenses. Our limited operating history makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our products or prospective operations and business prospects. As a pre-revenue company, we are subject to all the risks inherent in business development, financing, unexpected expenditures, and complications and delays that often occur in a new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in us in light of the uncertainties encountered by developing companies in a competitive environment. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.

We may experience delays or other complications in the design, manufacture, launch and production ramp of our vehicles and our future planned vehicles which could harm our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We may encounter unanticipated challenges, such as supply chain constraints, that lead to initial delays in producing our vehicles and ramping up our production. These challenges may be more significant for our Stag and Beast vehicles as we have not finalized the designs for these vehicles or begun to establish the assembly lines for these prospective vehicles. Any significant delay or other complication in the production of our vehicles or the development, manufacture, and production ramp of our future vehicles such as the Stag and Beast, including complications associated with expanding our production capacity and supply chain or obtaining or maintaining regulatory approvals, and/or coronavirus impacts, could materially damage our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We may be unable to meet our growing production plans and delivery plans, any of which could harm our business and prospects.

Our plans call for achieving and sustaining significant increases in vehicles production and deliveries. Our ability to achieve these plans will depend upon a number of factors, including our ability to utilize our current manufacturing capacity, achieve the planned production yield and further increase capacity as planned while maintaining our desired quality levels and optimize design and production changes, and our suppliers’ ability to support our needs. If we are unable to realize our plans, our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially damaged.

Our vehicles contain numerous purchased parts which we source globally from direct suppliers, the majority of whom are currently single-source suppliers. Any significant unanticipated demand would require us to procure additional components in a short amount of time. While we believe that we will be able to secure additional or alternate sources of supply for most of our components in a relatively short time frame, there is no assurance that we will be able to do so or develop our own replacements for certain highly customized components of our products.

If we encounter unexpected difficulties with key suppliers such as our battery and chassis suppliers, and if we are unable to fill these needs from other suppliers, we could experience production delays and potential loss of access to important technology and parts for producing, servicing and supporting our vehicles. This limited, and in many cases single source, supply chain exposes us to multiple potential sources of delivery failure or component shortages for the production of our vehicles. The loss of any single or limited source supplier or the disruption in the supply of components from these suppliers could lead to design changes and delays in product deliveries to our customers, which could hurt our relationships with our customers and result in negative publicity, damage to our brand and a material and adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Changes in our supply chain may result in increased cost. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to control and reduce supplier costs, our operating results will suffer.

There is no assurance that our suppliers will ultimately be able to meet our cost, quality and volume needs, or do so at the times needed. Furthermore, as the scale of our production increases, we will need to accurately forecast, purchase, warehouse and transport to our manufacturing facilities components at much higher volumes than we have experience with. If we are unable to accurately match the timing and quantities of component purchases to our actual needs, or successfully implement automation, inventory management and other systems to accommodate the increased complexity in our supply chain, we may incur unexpected production disruption, storage, transportation and write-off costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.

The duration and scope of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain and has adversely affect our supply chain and may in affect our operations, distribution, and demand for our products.

If we were to encounter a significant disruption due to COVID-19 at one or more of our suppliers, we may not be able to satisfy customer demand for a period of time. We have recently experienced delays and extended delivery dates with respect to the computer chips we utilize for our vehicles. Although we believe these delays will not affect our ability to deliver our initial vehicles, they may restrict our ability to deliver vehicles in the future. Furthermore, the impact of COVID-19 on the economy, demand for our products and impacts to our operations, including the measures taken by governmental authorities to address it, may precipitate or exacerbate other risks and/or uncertainties, including specifically many of the risk factors set forth herein, which may have a significant impact on our operating results and financial condition, although we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts at this time.

We are currently taking orders for the Grunt, and if this vehicle fails to perform as expected, our reputation could be harmed and our ability to develop, market and sell our vehicles could be harmed.

If our vehicles were to contain defects in design and manufacture that cause them not to perform as expected or that require repair or take longer than expected to deliver, our ability to develop, market and sell our vehicles could be harmed. While we intend to perform internal testing on the vehicles we assemble, as a start-up company we currently have a no frame of reference by which to evaluate detailed long-term quality, reliability, durability and performance characteristics of our vehicles. There can be no assurance that we will be able to detect and fix any defects in our products prior to their sale to consumers. Any product defects, delays, or other failure of our products to perform as expected could harm our reputation and result in delivery delays, product recalls, product liability claims, significant warranty and other expenses, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

Our business success will depend in large part on our ability to economically produce, market and sell our vehicles at sufficient capacity to meet the demands of our customers. We will need to scale our production capacity in order to successfully implement our business strategy, and we plan to do so in the future by, among other things, completing the build-out of an additional facility we leased in August 2021 in Round Rock, Texas and our Liberty Hill, Texas assembly facility when it is constructed.

We have no experience in large-scale production of our vehicles, and we do not know whether we will be able to develop efficient, automated, low-cost production capabilities and processes, such that we will be able to meet the quality, price, and production standards, as well as the production volumes, required to successfully market our vehicles and meet our business objectives and customer needs. Any failure to develop and scale our production capability and processes could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our business and prospects heavily depend on our ability to develop, maintain and strengthen the Volcon brand. If we are unable to establish, maintain and strengthen our brand, we may lose the opportunity to build and maintain a critical mass of customers. Our ability to develop, maintain and strengthen our brand will depend heavily on the success of our marketing efforts. Failure to develop and maintain a strong brand would materially and adversely affect customer acceptance of our vehicles, could result in suppliers and other third parties being less likely to invest time and resources in developing business relationships with us, and could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

If we are unable to achieve our targeted manufacturing costs for our vehicles, our financial condition and operating results will suffer.

As a start-up company, we have no historical data that allows us to ensure our targeted manufacturing costs will be achievable. While we expect in the future to better understand our manufacturing costs, there is no guarantee we will be able to achieve sufficient cost savings to reach our gross margin and profitability goals. We may also incur substantial costs or cost overruns in utilizing and increasing the production capability of our vehicle assembly facilities.

If we are unable to achieve production cost targets on our vehicles pursuant to our plans, we may not be able to meet our gross margin and other financial targets. Many of the factors that impact our manufacturing costs are beyond our control, such as potential increases in the costs of our materials and components, such as batteries and chassis. If we are unable to continue to control and reduce our manufacturing costs, our operating results, business and prospects will be harmed.

Increases in costs, disruption of supply, or shortage of materials could harm our business.

We may experience increases in the cost or a sustained interruption in the supply or shortage of materials. Any such increase, supply interruption or shortage could materially and negatively impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. The prices for these materials fluctuate, and their available supply may be unstable, depending on market conditions and global demand for these materials, including as a result of increased production of electric vehicle (EV) products by our competitors, and could adversely affect our business and operating results. For instance, we are exposed to multiple risks relating to battery packs. These risks include:

an increase in the cost, or decrease in the available supply, of materials used in the battery packs;

disruption in the supply of battery packs due to quality issues or recalls by battery cell manufacturers; and

tariffs on the materials we source in China, which make up a significant amount of the materials we require

Our business is dependent on the continued supply of battery cells for the battery packs used in our vehicles. Any disruption in the supply of battery cells could disrupt production of our vehicles. Substantial increases in the prices for our materials or prices charged to us, such as those charged by battery cell suppliers, would increase our operating costs, and could reduce our margins if we cannot recoup the increased costs through increased prices. Any attempts to increase prices in response to increased material costs could result in cancellations of vehicle orders and therefore materially and adversely affect our brand, image, business, prospects and operating results.

An adverse determination in any significant product liability claim against us could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The development, production, marketing, sale and usage of our vehicles will expose us to significant risks associated with product liability claims. The powersports vehicles industry in particular is vulnerable to significant product liability claims, and we may face inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our vehicles do not perform or are claimed to not have performed as expected. If our products are defective, malfunction or are used incorrectly by our customers, it may result in bodily injury, property damage or other injury, including death, which could give rise to product liability claims against us. Any losses that we may suffer from any liability claims and the effect that any product liability litigation may have upon the brand image, reputation and marketability of our products could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition. No assurance can be given that material product liability claims will not be made in the future against us, or that claims will not arise in the future in excess or outside of our insurance coverage and contractual indemnities with suppliers and manufacturers. We believe we have adequate product liability insurance; however, as we release new products and expand our sales channels, we may not be able to obtain adequate product liability insurance or the cost of doing so may be prohibitive. Adverse determinations of material product liability claims made against us could also harm our reputation and cause us to lose customers and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The EV market is in its infancy, and we expect it will become more competitive in the future. There is no assurance that our vehicles will be successful in the respective markets in which they compete. A significant and growing number of established and new companies, as well as other companies, have entered or are reported to have plans to enter the EV market, including the off-road market that we intend to pursue. Most of our current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, sales networks and other resources than we do and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of their products. Increased competition could result in lower vehicles sales, price reductions, revenue shortfalls, loss of customers and loss of market share, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and could cause us to incur substantial costs.

Others, including our competitors, may hold or obtain patents, copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary rights that could prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use, develop, sell or market our products and services, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From time to time, the holders of such intellectual property rights may assert their rights and may bring suits alleging infringement or misappropriation of such rights. In addition, if we are determined to have infringed upon a third party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to cease making, selling or incorporating certain components or intellectual property into the products we offer, to pay substantial damages and/or license royalties, to redesign our products, and/or to establish and maintain alternative branding for our products. In the event that we were required to take one or more such actions, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.

Our vehicles depend on materials from China, namely batteries, which are among the main components of our vehicles. We cannot predict what actions may be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the United States and China, what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the China in retaliation. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs, trade agreements or related policies have the potential to adversely impact our supply chain and access to equipment, our costs and our product margins. Any such cost increases or decreases in availability could slow our growth and cause our financial results and operational metrics to suffer.

Subsequent to fulfilling orders we have received directly from consumers, we intend to sell our vehicles and accessories through a network of third parties, and there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully build out this network.

Initially, we intend to sell our vehicles directly to the consumer via our website. We also intend to sell our vehicles in the U.S. to major outdoor retailer chains, farm and agriculture suppliers that are also vehicle dealers and even some high-quality powersports dealerships. Some of the vehicle transactions will be executed through the Volcon web platform and fulfilled by a dealer but most will be sold directly by our dealers.

We are also developing a line of aftermarket accessories for our vehicles that will be manufactured and produced by third parties. We intend to market our accessories on our website but also use our dealer network to display and sell these accessories.

We also intend to sell our vehicles internationally through international distributors. We have signed distributor agreements with distributors in Central and South America. We are relying on these distributors to market, promote, sell and service our vehicles and sell accessories in their designated countries/territories.

We believe our success will be highly dependent on our ability to build out this network in the major markets in which we intend to compete for customers, and to maintain this network in the future. Our model is dependent not only on our ability to create the foregoing network, but also on the commitment and motivation of these third parties to promote our brand and products.

Orders for vehicles are cancelable and the deposit fully refundable until delivered to and accepted by the customer 14 days from delivery, and there can be no assurance that such orders will be converted into sales.

In some cases, there will be significant time between a customer ordering a vehicle and the eventual delivery of the vehicle, which creates a heightened risk that a customer that ordered a vehicle may change his or her mind and not ultimately take delivery of the vehicle, and accessories if purchased in their order, even though the customer paid the full list price to complete their order. As a result, no assurance can be made that orders will not be cancelled. Any cancellations could harm our financial condition, business, prospects and operating results.

We may be unable to improve our existing products and develop and market new products that respond to customer needs and preferences and achieve market acceptance.

We may not be able to compete as effectively with our competitors, and ultimately satisfy the needs and preferences of our customers, unless we can successfully enhance existing products, develop new innovative products and distinguish our products from our competitors’ products through innovation and design. Product development requires significant financial, technological, and other resources. There can be no assurance that we will be able to incur a level of investment in research and development that will be sufficient to successfully make us competitive in product innovation and design. In addition, even if we are able to successfully enhance existing products and develop new products, there is no guarantee that the markets for our existing products and new products will progress as anticipated. If any of the markets in which our existing products compete do not develop as expected, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

We have no experience servicing our vehicles, we intend to primarily utilize third parties to service our vehicles, and if we are unable to address the service requirements of our customers, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

We have no experience servicing or repairing our vehicles, and we intend to primarily utilize third parties to service our vehicles. We are in the process of developing a network of third-party service providers who will also be our dealers, but we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in building out this network in all the markets in which we hope to compete, or that we will be able to maintain such a network in the future. Servicing electric vehicles is different than servicing vehicles with internal combustion engines and requires specialized skills, including high voltage training and servicing techniques. If we are unable to successfully address the service requirements of our customers, our business and prospects will be materially and adversely affected. If we are unable to successfully address the servicing requirements of our customers or establish a market perception that we maintain high-quality support, our reputation could be harmed, we may be subject to claims from our customers, and our business, results of operations or financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Significant product repair and/or replacement due to product warranty claims or product recalls could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We will provide a one-year warranty against defects for our vehicles, and a two-year warranty on the batteries in our vehicles. Our warranty will generally require us to repair or replace defective products during such warranty periods at no cost to the consumer. We will record provisions based on an estimate of product warranty claims, but there is the possibility that actual claims may exceed these provisions and therefore negatively impact our results of operations of financial condition.

In addition, we may in the future be required to make product recalls or could be held liable in the event that some of its products do not meet safety standards or statutory requirements on product safety, even if the defects related to any such recall or liability are not covered by our limited warranty. The repair and replacement costs that we could incur in connection with a recall could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Product recalls could also harm our reputation and cause us to lose customers, particularly if recalls cause consumers to question the safety or reliability of our products, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our success is dependent upon the success of the off-road vehicle industry and upon consumers’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles.

Our success is dependent upon the success of the off-road vehicle industry as a whole, and in particular upon consumers’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles as an alternative to combustion vehicles. If the market for electric off-road vehicles does not develop at the rate or in the manner or to the extent that we expect, our business, results of operations or financial condition may be adversely materially affected. The market for electric vehicles is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standard, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the adoption of electric vehicles include:

perceptions about electric vehicle quality, safety, design, performance and costs;

the limited range over which electric vehicles may be driven on a single battery charge, and the decline of an electric vehicle’s range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge;

the ability to easily charge electric vehicles;

volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline, and improvements in the fuel economy of combustion engines; and

the environmental consciousness of off-road vehicles customers.

The influence of any of the factors described above may cause our customers not to purchase our vehicles and may otherwise materially adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We currently operate in an area that is not heavily regulated, and future changes in government oversight may subject us to increased regulations, which may increase our expenses.

The off-road vehicle market is not heavily regulated, as compared to on-road vehicles, and, as such, we are not currently subject to significant government regulations. As this market develops and grows, it may come under increased regulatory scrutiny, which may result in increased regulations. This increase in regulations may result in increased costs and expenses, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We will lease a new facility from an entity controlled by our founders, and this arrangement was not conducted on an arm’s length basis.

We will be leasing a dedicated, built-to-suit manufacturing facility on 53 acres in Liberty Hill, Texas from an entity controlled by our founders. Although we believe the lease terms are at or below current market rates, due to the relationship between our company and our founders, the negotiation of the lease agreement was not conducted on an arm’s length basis. As such, it is possible that the terms were less favorable to us than in a transaction negotiated in an arm’s length transaction.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and this Offering

Our directors and executive officers will continue to exercise significant control over us after this offering, which will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could delay or prevent a change in corporate control.

Immediately following the completion of this offering, the existing holdings of our directors and executive officers, assuming full exercise of the warrants held by such individuals, will be, in the aggregate, approximately _____% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders will be able to influence our management and affairs and control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any sale, merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

These stockholders acquired their shares of common stock for substantially less than the price of the shares of common stock being acquired in this offering, and these stockholders may have interests, with respect to their common stock, that are different from those of investors in this offering and the concentration of voting power among one or more of these stockholders may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

In addition, this concentration of ownership might adversely affect the market price of our common stock by: (1) delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of our company; (2) impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving our company; or (3) discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.

We are party to certain agreements with our founders that may create a conflict of interest for our board of directors in evaluating a potential change of control transaction.

We have entered into consulting agreements with Pink Possum, LLC (“Pink Possum”), an entity controlled by Mr. Okonsky, and Highbridge Consultants, LLC (“Highbridge”), an entity controlled by Mr. James, pursuant to which Messrs. Okonsky and James provide us with services. Pursuant to the consulting agreements, upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, which generally includes a business combination, merger, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets (or similar events), for an aggregate gross sales price of $100.0 million or more, each entity will receive a cash payment equal to 1% of such gross sales price. Since Messrs. Okonsky and James are entitled to these payments, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular Fundamental Transaction is in the best interests of our shareholders. Furthermore, these payments upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction may make our company less attractive to a potential acquirer or may reduce the valuation we receive in connection with a Fundamental Transaction.

We have broad discretion in how we use the proceeds of this offering and may not use these proceeds effectively.

We will have considerable discretion in the application of the net proceeds of this offering. As a result, investors will be relying upon management’s judgment with only limited information about our specific intentions for the use of the net proceeds of this offering. We may use the net proceeds for purposes that do not yield a significant return or any return at all for our stockholders. In addition, pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.

Purchasers in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value.

The initial public offering price is substantially higher than the net tangible book value of each outstanding share of our common stock. Purchasers of common stock in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution on a book value basis. The dilution per share in the net tangible book value per share of common stock will be $______ per share, based on a $______ initial public offering price, which is the midpoint of the price range in this offering. If outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock are exercised, there would be further dilution. See “Dilution.”

Your ownership may be diluted if additional capital stock is issued to raise capital, to finance acquisitions or in connection with strategic transactions.

We intend to seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing equity or convertible debt securities in addition to the shares issued in this offering, which would reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, to issue all or any part of our authorized but unissued shares of common or preferred stock. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Future issuances of common or preferred stock would reduce your influence over matters on which stockholders vote and would be dilutive to earnings per share. In addition, any newly issued preferred stock could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the common stock. Those rights, preferences and privileges could include, among other things, the establishment of dividends that must be paid prior to declaring or paying dividends or other distributions to holders of our common stock or providing for preferential liquidation rights. These rights, preferences and privileges could negatively affect the rights of holders of our common stock, and the right to convert such preferred stock into shares of our common stock at a rate or price that would have a dilutive effect on the outstanding shares of our common stock.

We are not subject to Sarbanes-Oxley regulations and lack the financial controls and safeguards required of public companies.

We do not have the internal infrastructure necessary, and are not required, to complete an attestation about our financial controls that would be required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. There can be no assurance that we will be able to remediate our material weaknesses or that there are no new significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the quality of our financial controls. We expect to incur additional expenses and diversion of management’s time if and when it becomes necessary to perform the system and process evaluation, testing and remediation required in order to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements.

General Risk Factors

If our stock price fluctuates after the offering, you could lose a significant part of your investment.

The market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among other things, the risk factors described in this prospectus, and other factors beyond our control, such as fluctuations in the valuation of companies perceived by investors to be comparable to us. Furthermore, the stock markets have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively affect the market price of our common stock. In the past, many companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

We will incur increased costs as a result of being a publicly-traded company.

As a company with publicly-traded securities, we will incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses not presently incurred. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, as well as rules promulgated by the SEC and the national securities exchange on which we list, requires us to adopt corporate governance practices applicable to U.S. public companies. These rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our common stock, then our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us, our industry and our market. If no analyst elects to cover us and publish research or reports about us, the market for our common stock could be severely limited and our stock price could be adversely affected. As a small-cap company, we are more likely than our larger competitors to lack coverage from securities analysts. In addition, even if we receive analyst coverage, if one or more analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. If one or more analysts who elect to cover us issue negative reports or adversely change their recommendations regarding our common stock, our stock price could decline.

As an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements.

As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. We are an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

•

the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more;

•

the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of this offering;

•

the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; or

•

the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated issuer” as defined under the federal securities laws.

For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

•

have an auditor report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

•

comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis);

•

submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholders advisory votes pursuant to the “say on frequency” and “say on pay” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve compensation of certain executive officers) and the “say on golden parachute” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve golden parachute arrangements for certain executive officers in connection with mergers and certain other business combinations) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010;

•

include detailed compensation discussion and analysis in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and instead may provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation;

•

may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and

•

are eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, other than the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions were already available to us due to the fact that we also qualify as a “smaller reporting company” under SEC rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation and report regarding management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive due to our reliance on these exemptions. If investors were to find our common stock less attractive as a result of our election, we may have difficulty raising all of the proceeds we seek in this offering.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements. In addition, from time to time, we or our representatives may make forward-looking statements orally or in writing. We base these forward-looking statements on our expectations and projections about future events, which we derive from the information currently available to us. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance, including: our financial performance and projections; our growth in revenue and earnings; and our business prospects and opportunities. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “hopes” or the negative of these or similar terms. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including: our ability to change the direction of the Company; our ability to keep pace with new technology and changing market needs; and the competitive environment of our business. These and other factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are only predictions. The forward-looking events discussed in this document and other statements made from time to time by us or our representatives, may not occur, and actual events and results may differ materially and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us. We are not obligated to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this document and other statements made from time to time by us or our representatives might not occur.

While we believe we have identified material risks, these risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this prospectus describe additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus to conform our prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and we do not intend to do so.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:

·		our ability to obtain additional funding to market our vehicles and develop new products;
·		our ability to produce our vehicles with sufficient scale and quality to satisfy customers;
·		whether we experience delays in the design, production and launch of our vehicles;

·		increased government regulation of our industry; and
·		tariffs and currency exchange rates.

Use of Proceeds

We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from the sale of common stock of approximately $_______ million (or approximately $_________ million if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common stock from us is exercised in full), based upon an assumed initial public offering price of $_____ per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering as follows: (i) approximately $5.0 million for non-recurring engineering costs related to our development of our four-wheel UTVs, the Stag and the Beast; (ii) approximately $4.0 million to fund the purchase of inventory and production costs of our vehicles; (iii) approximately $1.0 million to build UTV assembly lines; and (iv) the remainder for working capital. To the extent the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common stock from us is exercised, we intend to use any additional net proceeds from such over-allotment option for working capital.

We believe the net proceeds of this offering, together with our cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet our cash, operational and liquidity requirements for at least twelve months.

As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from this offering. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of these proceeds. Net offering proceeds not immediately applied to the uses summarized above will be invested in short-term investments such as money market funds, commercial paper, U.S. treasury bills and similar securities investments pending their use.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Dilution

Purchasers of our common stock in this offering will experience an immediate dilution of net tangible book value per share from the initial public offering price. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by the purchasers of shares of common stock and the net tangible book value per share immediately after this offering.

As of June 30, 2021, our net tangible book value was $9,042,075, or $4.22 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share represents our total tangible assets, less our total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding shares of our common stock.

Dilution represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers in this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock after the offering. After giving effect to (i) the sale of shares of common stock in this offering at the offering price of $________ per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting underwriting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and (ii) 1,191,388 shares of Series A preferred stock that will convert into 2,978,479 shares of common stock upon the closing of this offering issued in a private placement that was completed in February 2021 at an offering price of $6.43 per share, and (iii) 1,105,827 shares of Series B preferred stock that will convert into 2,764,567 shares of common stock upon the closing of this offering issued in a private placement that was completed in June 2021 at an offering price of $9.50 per share, but without adjusting for any other change in our net tangible book value subsequent to June 30, 2021, our pro forma net tangible book value would have been $______ per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $________ per share to our existing stockholders and immediate dilution of $________ per share to new investors purchasing shares at the proposed public offering price.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in this prospectus. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. See “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above.

Overview

We are an all-electric, off-road powersports vehicle company developing and building electric two and four-wheel motorcycles and utility terrain vehicles (UTVs), also known as side-by-sides. In October 2020, we launched our offerings with two off-road motorcycles – the Grunt and the Runt. We are currently taking orders on our website for these initial offerings, and expect to begin delivering the initial vehicles in the third quarter of 2021. Commencing in 2022, we expect to expand our offerings with the Volcon Stag, a UTV, followed in 2023 by a higher performance, longer range UTV called the Beast.

All Volcon vehicles are assembled in a leased production facilities in Round Rock, Texas. We will be leasing a dedicated, built-to-suit manufacturing facility on 53 acres in Liberty Hill, Texas, 25 miles northwest of downtown Austin from an entity controlled by our founders. We expect to begin production at this facility in the third quarter of 2022.

Results of Operations

We were formed on February 21, 2020. Operations for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2020 are not materially different; therefore, the financial information for 2020 below is from the inception through June 30, 2020.

	February 21, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020		Three months ended June 30, 2021			Six months ended June 30, 2021
Operating expenses:
Sales and marketing	$	17,600	$	466,307		$	814,388

Interest and other expense		–		12,463			30,828
Net loss	$	72,098	$	(4,135,599	)	$	(19,455,285	)

Due to recurring losses there is no provision for income taxes for any period presented.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses relate to costs to increase exposure and awareness for our products and developing our network of U.S. dealers and international distributors. Sales and marketing expenses for the period ended June 30, 2020 were not significant as we did not have significant operations during this period as there were no sales and marketing employees. Sales and marketing expense were $466,307 and $814,388 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, sales and marketing expenses were primarily related to professional fees of $214,000, employee payroll costs of $148,000, and stock-based compensation of $29,000 for share based awards granted to employees. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, sales and marketing expenses were primarily related to professional fees of $396,000, employee payroll costs of $242,000, and stock-based compensation of $76,000 for share based awards granted to employees and consultants.

We expect sales and marketing expense to increase as we expand our U.S. dealer network and our international distributor network and promote our products.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expenses relate to costs for our finance, accounting and administrative functions to support the development, manufacturing and sales of our products. General and administrative expenses for the period ended June 30, 2020 were not significant as we did not have significant operations during this period as there were no employees. General and administrative expense were $649,174 and $14,047,543 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, general and administrative expenses were primarily related to employee payroll costs of $168,000, stock-based compensation of $97,000 for share based awards granted to employees and consultants, and professional fees of $361,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, general and administrative expenses were primarily related to employee payroll costs of $252,000, stock-based compensation of $13,225,000 (consisting of $13.0 million due to warrants issued to our founders in March 2021 and $225,000 due to share based awards granted to employees and consultants), and professional fees of $496,000.

We expect general and administrative expenses, other than stock based compensation related to the founder warrants, to increase as we increase staffing to support sales, manufacturing, product development and to comply with public company requirements.

Product Development Expense

Product development expenses relate to development of our products and process to manufacture these products. Product development expense was not significant for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2020 as we did not have any employees as of June 30, 2020. Product development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were $3,007,655 and $4,562,526, respectively.

Product development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 are primarily employee payroll costs of $535,000, stock-based compensation of $78,000 for share based awards granted to employees and consultants, professional fees of $596,000 for product design, and prototype parts and tooling costs of $1,576,000. Product development expenses in for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are primarily employee payroll costs of $743,000, stock-based compensation of $105,000 for share based awards granted to employees and consultants, professional fees of $848,000 for product design, and prototype parts and tooling costs $2,489,000.

We expect product development costs to increase in the future as our product development activities expand for new vehicle models.

Interest and Other Expenses

Interest and other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relates to interest on our notes payable used to purchase two vehicles and accretion on our lease obligation.

Net Loss

Net loss for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2020 was $72,098 compared to $4,135,599 and $19,455,285 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30, 2021, we had cash of $6.0 million and we had working capital of $7.6 million. Since inception in February 2020, we have funded our operations from proceeds from debt and equity sales.

Cash used in operating activities

Operating activities for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020 mainly included research and development costs, and professional fees to our consultants and attorneys for the formation of the Company and early product development efforts. These costs were paid for by the founders on behalf of the Company. Net cash used in operating activities was $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and includes all of our operating costs except stock-based compensation, and depreciation and amortization. Cash used in operating activities include increases in inventory and prepaid inventory totaling $2.5 million as we made payments and deposits to purchase raw materials to begin production of the Grunt in August 2021 for delivery to customers.

Cash used in investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and mainly included purchases of equipment and tooling related to our product development and certain intangible assets. There were no cash uses or cash provided from investing activities for the period ended June 30, 2020.

Cash provided by financing activities

There was no cash provided or used for financing activities for the period ended June 30, 2020. Net cash provided by financing activities was $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

In January 2021, we completed a WeFunder SAFE offering which was convertible into preferred stock upon future financing events. We received gross proceeds of $2,258,940 and paid expenses of $53,500.

In February 2021, we completed an offering of our Series A preferred stock. We received gross proceeds of $2,669,978 and issued 415,287 shares of Series A preferred stock. We paid commissions and expenses of $205,470 and issued 79,750 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 79,750 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $2.57 to placement agents in connection with the offering. This equity financing resulted in the SAFE investments of $2.0 million as of December 31, 2020 converting into 424,269 shares of Series A preferred stock and the WeFunder SAFE investments converting into 351,832 shares of Series A preferred stock.

From April 2021 to June 2021, we sold 1,105,827 shares of Series B preferred stock at $9.50 per share resulting in gross proceeds of $10.5 million. We paid commissions and expenses of $890,026 and issued 123,295 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 197,272 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.80 to placement agents in connection with the offering.

Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain continued financial support from our stockholders, necessary equity financing to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations. As of June 30, 2021, we had incurred an accumulated deficit of $20,774,674 since inception and have not yet generated any revenue from operations. Additionally, management anticipates that our cash on hand as of June 30, 2021 is insufficient to fund planned operations beyond one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We believe that the proceeds from this offering, along with proceeds from sales of the Grunt and Runt products and related accessories which will begin in August 2021, will provide sufficient capital to fund operations beyond one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

JOBS Act and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The recently enacted JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.

We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and may impact our financial statements and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates in Financial Statement Presentation

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods.

Making estimates requires management to exercise judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when we transfer control of the product to the customer and a 14-day acceptance period has expired or the customer has acknowledged acceptance prior to the end of the 14-day acceptance period. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring control of our vehicles, parts and accessories. Consideration that is received in advance of the transfer of goods is deferred until delivery has occurred. Sales and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. If a right of return exists, we adjust revenue for the estimated effect of returns. Until we develop sales history, we will estimate expected returns based on industry data for sales returns as a percent of sales, type of product, and a projection of this experience into the future. Our sales do not have a financing component.

Sales promotions and incentives. We provide for estimated sales promotion and incentive expenses, which are recognized as a component of sales in measuring the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Examples of sales promotion and incentive programs include distributer fees and volume incentives. Sales promotion and incentive expenses are estimated based on current programs for each product line. We record these amounts as a liability in the balance sheet until they are ultimately paid. Adjustments to sales promotions and incentives accruals are made as actual usage becomes known in order to properly estimate the amounts necessary to generate consumer demand based on market conditions as of the balance sheet date.

Shipping and handling charges and costs. We record shipping and handling charged to the customer and related shipping costs as a component of cost of sales when control has transferred to the customer.

Product warranties

We provide a one-year warranty on our vehicles, and a two-year warranty on the battery pack. We accrue warranty reserves at the time a vehicle is delivered to the customer. Warranty reserves include our best estimate of the projected cost to repair or to replace any items under warranty, based on actual warranty experience as it becomes available and other known factors that may impact our evaluation of historical data. We review our reserves quarterly to ensure that our accruals are adequate in meeting expected future warranty obligations, and we will adjust our estimates as needed. Factors that could have an impact on the warranty reserve include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, shifts in product mix, changes in warranty coverage periods, product recalls and changes in sales volume. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenues in the statement of operations. The portion of the warranty provision which is expected to be incurred within 12 months from the balance sheet date will be classified as current, while the remaining amount will be classified as long-term liabilities.

Income taxes

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We provide a valuation allowance, when it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future.

The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income taxes will be classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes.

Stock-based compensation

We measure the total amount of employee stock-based compensation expense for a grant based on the grant date fair value of each award and recognizes the stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of an award. Stock-based compensation is based on unvested outstanding awards. We have elected to recognize forfeitures when realized.

BUSINESS

Overview

We are an all-electric, off-road powersports vehicle company developing and building electric two and four-wheel motorcycles and utility terrain vehicles (UTVs), also known as side-by-sides. In October 2020, we began building and testing prototypes for our future offerings with two off-road motorcycles – the Grunt and the Runt. We are currently taking orders on our website for these initial offerings and expect to begin delivering the initial vehicles in the third quarter of 2021. Commencing in 2022, we expect to expand our offerings with the Volcon Stag, a UTV, followed in 2023 by a higher performance, longer range UTV called the Beast.

Our Industry

Outdoor recreation is a major driver of the American economy. In 2019, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) found that outdoor recreation drives $788 billion of economic activity in America. The BEA noted that two and four-wheel powersports make up $39 billion of that total–the fourth largest total of all outdoor recreation activities.

Our Products

We will feature motorcycle and UTV, or side-by-side, products that are all-electric and for off-road use only. The off-road market is growing faster than on-road and on-road products require costly levels of certification, homologation and compliance with the Department of Transportation (DOT), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and other government regulators. As such, we are solely focusing on the off-road market. Due to these regulations, our vehicles are not legal for on-road use. All vehicles will come with a warning label stating “This vehicle is designed and manufactured for off road use only. It does not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standards and operation on public streets, roads, or highways is illegal”, and therefore our vehicles cannot be legally registered for on-road use in any state. In addition to powersports vehicles, we will source, market and sell a complete line of accessories and upgrades. These will feature parts designed to increase performance or appearance, in addition to practical add-ons to equip Volcon vehicles for hunters or farmers.

The Grunt

In the third quarter of 2021, the Volcon Grunt will be the first product to market. The Grunt is an electric off-road motorcycle with unique design features and capabilities.

The Runt

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Volcon Runt will also be available to the market. The Runt shares the styling of its big-brother Grunt, but it is sized for seven to 14-year-olds.

The Runt is easy to ride and includes features that we believe no other minibike has that will make parents feel more comfortable with their children on two wheels.

Like the Grunt, the Runt’s large tires and low-slung chassis make it extremely easy to ride. The app will also work with the Runt and will let the parents of the child login on their own phones to control the maximum acceleration and speed of the Runt.

The Runt will have a range of up to 35 miles in its “explore” mode setting and charges in less than three hours from a standard wall outlet.

We expect to introduce the Volcon Stag in second half of 2022. The Stag will be Volcon’s utility/sport UTV with a 64” width to ensure it is able to operate in all states including the many states with 65”-maximum-width trails. It will feature hauling and towing abilities for work on a farm or job site, but also fold-up seating for four so it can be used for weekend family adventures. We are designing the electric drivetrain to be quiet and reliable. We believe the electric nature of the Stag will also mean low maintenance. Where a gas UTV motor has over 1,000 moving parts, the Stag’s motor will have just two.

Like the two-wheel Volcon products, the Stag will feature the innovative features of the ride control app. A touchscreen display on the dash will provide easy access to the data.

The Stag will have a longer range than the Grunt and the Runt. With larger battery capacity than its two-wheel siblings, the Stag can be charged with a typical EV Level 2 charger or on standard Level 1 charging via a household outlet.

The Volcon Beast, which we expect will available in late 2023 will be the flagship model in the Volcon line. We are designing the Beast to have superior range and speed, but still be able to haul and tow far more than a traditional UTV.

Assembly and Manufacturing

We source the parts for our vehicles from component manufacturers worldwide, with an emphasis on the United States, China and Southeast Asia. We do not have long-term supply agreements with our component suppliers. Although we currently rely on a single-source for certain of our components, we believe there are multiple sources for each of our critical components. We will initially assemble our vehicles in leased facilities in Round Rock, Texas and, once completed, our leased facility in Liberty Hill, Texas.

Our Round Rock facilities operate on a common production layout and can support Grunt and Runt on the same lines. We believe we will initially be able to produce 100 units per month, which we believe will increase to approximately 400 units per month by the end of 2021 and up to 800 units per month when at full production capacity. We expect our Liberty Hill facility, to open in the third quarter of 2022 and it will be used to produce the Stag.

We expect to provide a one-year warranty on our vehicles, and a two-year warranty on the battery pack. We will accrue warranty reserves at the time a vehicle is delivered to the customer. Warranty reserves include our best estimate of the projected cost to repair or to replace any items under warranty, based on actual warranty experience as it becomes available and other known factors that may impact our evaluation of historical data. We review our reserves quarterly to ensure that our accruals are adequate in meeting expected future warranty obligations, and we will adjust our estimates as needed. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenues in the statement of operations. The portion of the warranty provision which is expected to be incurred within 12 months from the balance sheet date will be classified as current, while the remaining amount will be classified as long-term liabilities.

Sales and Marketing

Intellectual Property

Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we currently rely on a combination of trade secrets, including know-how, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, and other contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology.

Our industrial designs are protected by design patents. In addition, we intend to file for additional utility patents. There is no assurance that we will be granted any such patents. We do not know whether any patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or whether the examination process will require us to narrow our claims. Even if granted, there can be no assurance that our issued patents or new patent applications will provide us with protection.

The names “Grunt” and “Runt” have been granted trademark rights in the United States.

Competition

There are dozens of manufacturers that sell off-road motorcycles and UTVs in the United States and even more globally. The markets for powersport vehicles are highly competitive based on a number of factors, including innovation, performance, price, technology, product features, styling, fit and finish, brand recognition, quality and distribution. We believe our ability to compete successfully in these markets depends on our ability to capitalize on our competitive strengths and build brand recognition.

Many companies, which have greater financial and marketing resources than Volcon, make electric street motorcycles, including Zero Motorcycles. Some companies make electric UTVs as part of their product line. Polaris has recently announced a joint venture with Zero Motorcycles to help them design dedicated electric UTVs, the first product of which is expected to be released in December 2021.

Government regulations

We have focused on the off-road-only portion of the market because it is free of many of the homologation issues and highway certifications required to produce and sell an on-road vehicle. In some states, off-road vehicles do have legislative restrictions, but they are related to noise and exhaust emissions, two things our vehicles do not produce.

Federal, state and local governments have promulgated and/or are considering promulgating laws and regulations relating to the safety of our products. In the United States, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has federal oversight over product safety issues related to off-road vehicles. We believe that our products comply with all applicable CPSC safety standards as well as all other applicable safety standards in the United States.

The assembly, use, storage, transport and disposal of battery packs is subject to extensive regulation. Complying with these requirements involves substantial costs, and any failure to do so may result in heavy fines or other restrictions on our operations. Additionally, we may be responsible for the recycling and proper disposal of expended batteries from our vehicles. We may enter into agreements with third-parties to manage such recycling and disposal; however, we may be found liable for any failures in compliance by these third parties and subject to fines or remediation liabilities, which costs may be substantial.

We intend to sell and distribute our vehicles internationally through international distributors. As such, we will be subject to the local laws of each jurisdiction in which we sell our vehicles. These regulations may result in increased costs and expenses, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Employees

As of June 30, 2021, we had 34 full time employee(s) and no part-time employee(s).

Legal Proceedings

We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to, nor are we aware of, any legal proceedings, investigations or claims which, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Properties

Our corporate and executive offices are in located in a leased facility in Round Rock, Texas. We believe our facilities, including our lease for our future Liberty Hill, Texas facility and our recently signed lease for our new manufacturing facility in Round Rock, Texas will be sufficient to meet our current needs. However, as we expand our operations, we may require additional space in which to assemble our vehicles and we do not have any commitments for such space. We do not own any real property.

Director Independence

The rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, or the Nasdaq Rules, require a majority of a listed company’s board of directors to be composed of independent directors within one year of listing. In addition, the Nasdaq Rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees be independent. Under the Nasdaq Rules, a director will only qualify as an independent director if, in the opinion of our board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Nasdaq Rules also require that audit committee members satisfy independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries. In considering the independence of compensation committee members, the Nasdaq Rules require that our board of directors must consider additional factors relevant to the duties of a compensation committee member, including the source of any compensation we pay to the director and any affiliations with the Company.

Our board of directors undertook a review of the composition of our board of directors and its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that each of our directors, with the exception of Messrs. Okonsky and James, are independent as defined under the Nasdaq Rules.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and governance committee. Each of these committees operates under a charter that was approved by our board of directors.

Audit Committee. Our audit committee consists of three independent directors. The members of the audit committee are Mr. Foster, Mr. Kim and [________]. The audit committee consists exclusively of directors who are financially literate. In addition, Mr. Foster is considered an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC’s rules and regulations.

The audit committee responsibilities include:

	·	approving any employment agreements, severance agreements or change of control agreements that are entered into with the CEO and certain executive officers; and

Following this offering, a copy of the code will be made available on the Corporate Governance section of our website, which is located at www.volcon.com.

The agreement provides for an initial annual salary of $162,000.

Christian Okonsky, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, and Adrian James, Co-Founder

On August 28, 2020, we entered into consulting agreements with Pink Possum, LLC (“Pink Possum”), an entity controlled by Mr. Okonsky, and Highbridge Consultants, LLC (“Highbridge”), an entity controlled by Mr. James, pursuant to which Messrs. Okonsky and James provide us with services. In consideration for entering into the consulting agreements, we issued the two entities ten-year warrants to purchase our common stock at an exercise price of $0.004 per share. The number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the warrants was based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the time of exercise and provided that Pink Possum and Highbridge would receive 18.75% and 25%, respectively, of our shares of common stock outstanding at the time of exercise on a fully diluted basis. On March 26, 2021, Pink Possum and Highbridge entered into amendments to the consulting agreements agreeing to exchange the original warrants for new ten-year warrants to purchase 4,750,000 and 6,250,000 shares, respectively, of common stock at an exercise price of $0.98.

In addition, pursuant to the consulting agreements upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction for an aggregate gross sales price of $100.0 million or more, each entity will receive a cash payment equal to 1% of such gross sales price. For the purposes of the consulting agreements, “Fundamental Transaction” means any of the following: (i) a consolidation or merger involving the Company if the holders of the voting securities of the Company that are outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such consolidation or merger do not, immediately after the consummation of such consolidation or merger, hold voting securities that collectively possess at least a majority of the voting power of all the outstanding securities of the surviving entity of such consolidation or merger or such surviving entity’s parent entity; (ii) a transfer or issuance (in a single transaction or series of related transactions) by one or more of the Company and its stockholders to one person or to any group of persons acting in concert, of shares of the Company’s capital stock then collectively possessing 50% or more of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock (computed on an as-converted to common stock basis); or (iii) any sale, license, lease, assignment or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. Furthermore, commencing upon the completion of this offering, if our market capitalization exceeds $300.0 million for a period of 21 consecutive trading days, each of the entities will receive an additional cash payment equal to $15.0 million; provided that we will have the right, in our sole discretion, to make the foregoing $15.0 million payment by the issuance of shares of our common stock. The foregoing amounts will be payable to the entities if the above milestones occur any time prior to the ten-year anniversary of original consulting agreements, or August 28, 2030.

Director Compensation

Upon the completion of our Offering, our board of directors will establish a compensation policy for non-employee directors.

2021 Stock Plan

In January 2021, we adopted the Volcon, Inc. 2021 Stock Plan, or 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan is a stock-based compensation plan that provides for discretionary grants of stock options, stock awards, stock unit awards and stock appreciation rights to key employees, non-employee directors and consultants. The following is a summary of the material features of the 2021 Plan.

Administration. The 2021 Plan is administered by either the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors or our entire Board of Directors for the period prior to the establishment of our Compensation Committee (we refer to the body administering the 2021 Plan as the “Committee”). The Committee has full authority to select the individuals who will receive awards under the 2021 Plan, determine the form and amount of each of the awards to be granted and establish the terms and conditions of awards.

Limit on Non-Employee Director Compensation. Under the 2021 Plan, the aggregate value of all compensation granted or paid to any individual for service as a non-employee director with respect to any calendar year, including awards granted under the 2021 Plan and cash fees paid to such non-employee director, will not exceed $300,000 in total value. For purposes of this limitation, the value of awards is calculated based on the grant date fair value of such awards for financial reporting purposes.

Number of Shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of the common stock that may be issued under the 2021 Plan is 3,000,000.

Shares issuable under the 2021 Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. If there is a lapse, forfeiture, expiration, termination or cancellation of any award made under the 2021 Plan for any reason, the shares subject to the award will again be available for issuance. Any shares subject to an award that are delivered to us by a participant, or withheld by us on behalf of a participant, as payment for an award or payment of withholding taxes due in connection with an award will not again be available for issuance, and all such shares will count toward the number of shares issued under the 2021 Plan. Shares purchased by us with the proceeds received from a stock option exercise will not be available again for issuance. The number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2021 Plan is subject to adjustment, in the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock distribution, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, subdivision, consolidation or exchange of shares, any change in the capital structure of the company or any similar corporate transaction. In each case, the Committee has the discretion to make adjustments it deems necessary to preserve the intended benefits under the 2021 Plan. No award granted under the 2021 Plan may be transferred, except by will, the laws of descent and distribution.

Of the shares available for issuance: (i) the maximum number issuable as stock options or stock appreciation rights to any employee in any calendar year is 500,000, (ii) the maximum number issuable as incentive stock options is 500,000 and (iii) the maximum number of shares issuable as stock awards or such units granted to any employee in any calendar year is 100,000.

Eligibility. All employees designated as key employees for purposes of the 2021 Plan, all non-employee directors and consultants are eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Plan.

Awards to Participants. The 2021 Plan provides for discretionary awards of stock options, stock awards, stock unit awards and stock appreciation rights to participants. Each award made under the 2021 Plan will be evidenced by a written award agreement specifying the terms and conditions of the award as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, consistent with the terms of the 2021 Plan.

Stock Options. The Committee has the discretion to grant non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options to participants and to set the terms and conditions applicable to the options, including the type of option, the number of shares subject to the option and the vesting schedule; provided that, commencing as of the initial public offering of our common stock, the exercise price of each stock option will be the closing price of the common stock on the date on which the option is granted (“fair market value”), each option will expire ten years from the date of grant and no dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid with respect to stock options.

In addition, an incentive stock option granted to a key employee is subject to the following rules: (i) the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted) of the shares of common stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by a key employee during any calendar year (under all incentive stock option plans of the company and its subsidiaries) cannot exceed $100,000, and if this limitation is exceeded, that portion of the incentive stock option that does not exceed the applicable dollar limit will be an incentive stock option and the remainder will be a non-qualified stock option; (ii) if an incentive stock option is granted to a key employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all class of stock of the company, the exercise price of the incentive stock option will be 110% of the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant and the incentive stock option will expire no later than five years from the date of grant; and (iii) no incentive stock option can be granted after ten years from the earlier of the date the 2021 Plan was adopted or approved by stockholders.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee has the discretion to grant stock appreciation rights to participants. The Committee determines the exercise price for a stock appreciation right, which cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right, we will pay the participant in common stock or in cash, at our discretion, an amount equal to the product of (1) the excess of the per share fair market value of our common stock on the date of exercise over the exercise price, multiplied by (2) the number of shares of common stock with respect to which the stock appreciation right is exercised. The Committee has the discretion to set the terms and conditions applicable to the award, including the number of shares subject to the stock appreciation right and the vesting schedule, provided that each stock appreciation right will expire not more than ten years from the date of grant and no dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid with respect to any stock appreciation right prior to the exercise of the stock appreciation right.

Stock Awards. The Committee has the discretion to grant stock awards to participants. Stock awards will consist of shares of common stock granted without any consideration from the participant or shares sold to the participant for appropriate consideration as determined by the Board. The number of shares awarded to each participant, and the restrictions, terms and conditions of the award, will be at the discretion of the Committee. Subject to the restrictions, a participant will be a shareholder with respect to the shares awarded to him or her and will have the rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares, including the right to vote the shares and receive dividends on the shares; provided that dividends otherwise payable on any stock award subject to restrictions will be held by us and will be paid to the holder of the stock award only to the extent the restrictions on such stock award lapse.

Stock Units. The Committee has the discretion to grant stock unit awards to participants. Each stock unit entitles the participant to receive, on a specified date or event set forth in the award agreement, one share of common stock or cash equal to the fair market value of one share on such date or event, as provided in the award agreement. The number of stock units awarded to each participant, and the terms and conditions of the award, will be at the discretion of the Committee. Unless otherwise specified in the award agreement, a participant will not be a shareholder with respect to the stock units awarded to him prior to the date they are settled in shares of common stock. The award agreement may provide that until the restrictions on the stock units lapse, the participant will be paid an amount equal to the dividends that would have been paid had the stock units been actual shares; provided that such dividend equivalents will be held by us and paid only to the extent the restrictions lapse.

Payment for Stock Options and Withholding Taxes. The Committee may make one or more of the following methods available for payment of any award, including the exercise price of a stock option, and for payment of the tax obligation associated with an award: (i) cash; (ii) cash received from a broker dealer to whom the holder has submitted an exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to deliver promptly to us the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the award to pay the exercise price or withholding tax; (iii) by directing us to withhold shares of common stock otherwise issuable in connection with the award having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld; and (iv) by delivery of previously acquired shares of common stock that are acceptable to the Committee and that have an aggregate fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price or withholding tax, or certification of ownership by attestation of such previously acquired shares.

Provisions Relating to a “Change in Control” of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of the 2021 Plan or any award agreement, in the event of a “Change in Control” of the Company, the Board has the discretion to provide that all outstanding awards will become fully exercisable, all restrictions applicable to all awards will terminate or lapse, and performance goals applicable to any stock awards will be deemed satisfied at the highest level. In addition, upon such Change in Control, the Committee has sole discretion to provide for the purchase of any outstanding stock option for cash equal to the difference between the exercise price and the then fair market value of the common stock subject to the option had the option been currently exercisable, make such adjustment to any award then outstanding as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control and cause any such award then outstanding to be assumed by the acquiring or surviving corporation after such Change in Control.

Amendment of Award Agreements; Amendment and Termination of the 2021 Plan; Term of the 2021 Plan. The Committee may amend any award agreement at any time, provided that no amendment may adversely affect the right of any participant under any agreement in any material way without the written consent of the participant, unless such amendment is required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule.

The Board may terminate, suspend or amend the 2021 Plan, in whole or in part, from time to time, without the approval of the stockholders, unless such approval is required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, and provided that no amendment may adversely affect the right of any participant under any outstanding award in any material way without the written consent of the participant, unless such amendment is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the shares are listed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the 2021 Plan nor any outstanding award agreement can be amended in a way that results in the repricing of a stock option. Repricing is broadly defined to include reducing the exercise price of a stock option or stock appreciation right or cancelling a stock option or stock appreciation right in exchange for cash, other stock options or stock appreciation rights with a lower exercise price or other stock awards. (This prohibition on repricing without stockholder approval does not apply in case of an equitable adjustment to the awards to reflect changes in the capital structure of the company or similar events.

No awards may be granted under the 2021 Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the initial effective date of the 2021 Plan.

CERTAIN Relationships and Related Party Transactions

In 2020, we entered into an operating lease with an entity controlled by our founders, Messrs. Okonsky and James, for our future production facility in Liberty Hill, Texas. The lease has a lease term of 5 years, and monthly payments ranging from approximately $15,000 per month to $17,000 per month over the lease term beginning when a certificate of occupancy is received. In February 2021, we entered into an amendment of the lease related to our future headquarters to expand the leased premises. We paid an additional security deposit of $139,230 and additional prepaid rent of $315,588. The total minimum lease payments under the amended lease total approximately $3,930,170 and we expect monthly payments to begin in the second or third quarter of 2022 based on the expected date construction will be complete.

In June 2020, we entered into a services agreement with Sustainability Initiatives, LLC (“SI”), an entity controlled by Mr. Okonsky, for accounting, graphics, marketing services and other services. This agreement, which had a term of one year and was not renewed, required us to pay SI a service fee based on hours worked with a minimum monthly fee of $5,000. During the term of the agreement, we paid SI a total of $60,000. In June 2021, we entered into a sublease agreement with SI for office space. The sublease term is for one year and requires us to make monthly payments of $2,000. The sublease automatically renews annually unless either party provides 90 days' written notice to terminate the agreement.

We sublease one of our Round Rock, Texas, facilities from a company owned by our Chief Operating Officer, Bruce Riggs, and his spouse. The lease is on a month-to-month basis and requires us to make a monthly payment of $11,500, which includes trash service. The lease is cancelable with 90-days’ notice.

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

Our audit committee charter will provide that our audit committee will be responsible for reviewing and approving in advance any related party transaction. This will cover, with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which we were or are to be a participant, where the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness and employment by us of a related person. All of the transactions described in this section occurred prior to the creation of our audit committee and the adoption of this policy, and, as such, they were not conducted on an arms’ length basis.

Description of Securities

The following summary is a description of the material terms of our securities and is not complete. You should also refer to the Volcon, Inc. certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Authorized Capital Stock

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorize us to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Upon the closing of this offering, we will have ___________ shares of common stock outstanding immediately after the closing of this offering.

Common Stock

Shares of our common stock have the following rights, preferences and privileges:

Voting

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Any action at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be decided by a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy, except in the case of any election of directors, which will be decided by a plurality of votes cast. There is no cumulative voting.

Dividends

Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for payment, subject to the rights of holders, if any, of any class of stock having preference over the common stock. Any decision to pay dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Our board of directors may or may not determine to declare dividends in the future. See “Dividend Policy.” The board’s determination to issue dividends will depend upon our profitability and financial condition any contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and the SEC, and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably on the basis of the number of shares held in any of the assets available for distribution after we have paid in full, or provided for payment of, all of our debts and after the holders of all outstanding series of any class of stock have preference over the common stock, if any, have received their liquidation preferences in full.

Other

Our issued and outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of shares of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights. Shares of our common stock are not convertible into shares of any other class of capital stock, nor are they subject to any redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the board to issue these shares in one or more series, to determine the designations and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including the dividend rights, conversion or exchange rights, voting rights (including the number of votes per share), redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, sinking fund provisions and the number of shares constituting the series. Our board of directors could, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock and which could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock.

Prior to this offering, we will have 1,191,388 shares of our Series A preferred stock and 1,105,827 shares of our Series B preferred stock outstanding. Each of our Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock will convert into 2,978,479 and 2,764,567 shares of our common stock, respectively, upon the closing of this offering. The shares of Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock have no voting rights, except that the holders of shares of a majority of the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock will be required to effect or validate any amendment, alteration or repeal of any of the provisions of the Certificate of Designation that materially adversely affects the powers, preferences or special rights of such series of preferred stock, with certain limited exceptions.

With respect to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation or dissolution or winding up of the company, the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock shall rank equal to the common stock. No sinking fund has been established for the retirement or redemption of the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock. The Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock have liquidation rights, and there are no special classifications of our Board related to the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock.

Warrants

On March 26, 2021, in connection with the amendment of certain consulting agreements, Pink Possum, LLC (an entity affiliated with Mr. Okonsky) and Highbridge Consultants, LLC (an entity affiliated with Mr. James) were issued ten-year warrants to purchase 4,750,000 and 6,250,000 shares, respectively, of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.98.

As of August 12, 2021, the Company has issued ten-year warrants to consultants to purchase 516,112 shares at a weighted average exercise price of $2.02.

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws include a number of anti-takeover provisions that may have the effect of encouraging persons considering unsolicited tender offers or other unilateral takeover proposals to negotiate with our board of directors rather than pursue non-negotiated takeover attempts. These provisions include:

Advance Notice Requirements. Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with regard to stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors or new business to be brought before meetings of stockholders. These procedures provide that notice of stockholder proposals must be timely and given in writing to our corporate Secretary. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received at our principal executive offices not fewer than 120 calendar days prior to the first anniversary date on which our notice of meeting and related proxy statement were mailed to stockholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting of stockholders. The notice must contain the information required by the bylaws, including information regarding the proposal and the proponent.

Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our bylaws provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time by only the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the board of directors, or in their absence or disability, by any vice president.

No Written Consent of Stockholders. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.

Amendment of Bylaws. Our stockholders may amend any provisions of our bylaws by obtaining the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of each class of issued and outstanding shares of our voting securities, at a meeting called for the purpose of amending and/or restating our bylaws.

Preferred Stock. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to create and issue rights entitling our stockholders to purchase shares of our stock or other securities. The ability of our board to establish the rights and issue substantial amounts of preferred stock without the need for stockholder approval may delay or deter a change in control of us. See “Preferred Stock” above.

Delaware Takeover Statute

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL which, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any “business combination” (as defined below) with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless: (1) prior to such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (2) on consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding those shares owned (x) by persons who are directors and also officers and (y) by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to this plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or (3) on or subsequent to such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66²⁄₃% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Section 203 of the DGCL defines generally “business combination” to include: (1) any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder; (2) any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder; (3) subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder; (4) any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or (5) the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation. In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws limit the liability of our officers and directors and provide that we will indemnify our officers and directors, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. We expect to obtain additional directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage prior to the completion of this offering.

Listing

We have applied to list our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “VLCN”.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for our common stock is Computershare.

Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market after this offering could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.

Right of First Refusal

If, for the period ending nine (9) months from the closing of the Offering, we or any of our subsidiaries (a) decides to finance or refinance any indebtedness, Aegis (or any affiliate designated by Aegis) shall have the right to act as sole book-runner, sole manager, sole placement agent or sole agent with respect to such financing or refinancing; or (b) decides to raise funds by means of a public offering or a private placement or any other capital raising financing of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, Aegis (or any affiliate designated by Aegis) shall have the right to act as sole book-running manager, sole underwriter or sole placement agent for such financing. If Aegis or one of its affiliates decides to accept any such engagement, the agreement governing such engagement will contain, among other things, provisions for customary fees for transactions of similar size and nature.

Stabilization

In accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, the underwriters may engage in activities that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock, including short sales and purchases to cover positions created by short positions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions, penalty bids and passive market making.

•

Short positions involve sales by the underwriters of shares in excess of the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to purchase, which creates a syndicate short position. The short position may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares involved in the sales made by the underwriters in excess of the number of shares they are obligated to purchase is not greater than the number of shares that they may purchase by exercising their option to purchase additional shares. In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares in their option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters may close out any short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market.

•	Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security as long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specific maximum price.

•

Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of our common stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be covered by the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, thereby creating a naked short position, the position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

•	Penalty bids permit the representative to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the common stock originally sold by the syndicate member is purchased in a stabilizing or syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions.

•	In passive market making, market makers in our common stock who are underwriters or prospective underwriters may, subject to limitations, make bids for or purchase shares of our common stock until the time, if any, at which a stabilizing bid is made.

These activities may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result of these activities, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected on Nasdaq or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that Aegis will engage in these stabilizing transactions or that any transaction, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Offering Price Determination

The public offering price was negotiated between Aegis and us. In determining the public offering price of our common stock, Aegis considered:

	•	the history and prospects for the industry in which we compete;

	•	our financial information;

	•	the ability of our management and our business potential and earning prospects;

	•	the prevailing securities markets at the time of this offering; and

	•	the recent market prices of, and the demand for, publicly traded shares of generally comparable companies, as well as the recent market price of our Company’s common stock.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify Aegis, its affiliates an each person controlling Aegis against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, assessments, costs, and other liabilities, as the same are incurred (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), relating to or arising out of the offering, undertaken in good faith.

Discretionary Accounts

The underwriters have informed us that they do not expect to make sales to accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority in excess of 5% of the shares of our common stock being offered in this offering.

Lock-Up Agreements

We, and all of our directors and executive officers have agreed that, for a period of ninety (90) days after the date of the offering, subject to certain limited exceptions, we and they will not directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Aegis, (a) offer, sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company; or (b) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company.

The prior sentence will not apply to (i) the shares to be sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) any shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of an option or other security outstanding on the date of the Offering, (iii) such issuances of options or grants of restricted stock or other equity-based awards under the Company’s equity plan and the issuance of shares issuable upon exercise of any such equity-based awards, (iv) the filing of registration statements on Form S-8, (v) the issuance of securities to affiliates and subsidiaries of the Company, and, (vi) the issuance of securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, licensing arrangements or any other similar non-capital raising transactions.

Aegis, in its sole discretion, may release the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time. When determining whether or not to release common stock and other securities from lock-up agreements, Aegis will consider, among other factors, the holder’s reasons for requesting the release, the number of shares of common stock and other securities for which the release is being requested and market conditions at the time.

Other Relationships

Aegis has provided us and our affiliates with investment banking and financial advisory services, including serving as placement agent for private placements of securities, for which Aegis received customary fees. Aegis may in the future provide us and our affiliates with such services. Aegis may release, or authorize us to release, as the case may be, the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time with or without notice.

In connection with our initial public offering, on _____, 2021, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Aegis pursuant to which we paid Aegis an aggregate of $_____ in commissions and non-accountable expenses. In addition, we issued Aegis warrants to purchase _____ shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $_____ per share.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Organization and Nature of Operations

Volcon, Inc. (“Volcon”) was formed on February 21, 2020 as a Delaware Corporation, under the name Frog ePowersports, Inc. The Company was renamed Volcon on October 1, 2020. Volcon is developer and manufacturer of all-electric off road powersport vehicles.

On January 5, 2021, the Company created Volcon ePowersports, LLC, (“Volcon LLC”) a Delaware wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to sell Volcon vehicles and accessories in the United States.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has recurring losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since inception. Due to these conditions, it raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with loans or the sale of equity. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Impact of COVID-19

The outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, and the related responses by public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat its outbreak and spread, has severely impacted the U.S. and world economies. Economic recessions, including those brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak may have a negative effect on the demand for the Company’s products and the Company’s operating results. The range of possible impacts on the Company’s business from the coronavirus pandemic could include: (i) changing demand for the Company’s products; and (ii) potential disruption to the Company’s supply chain and distribution network.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Basis of presentation

The basis of accounting applied is United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Stock Dividend

On July 27, 2021, the board of directors approved a common stock dividend of 1.5 shares for each share of common stock. The Company has accounted for this as a stock split since all common stock shares, warrants, options and restricted stock unit amounts and common stock per share amounts will be adjusted for this stock dividend. All periods presented have been adjusted to reflect this stock dividend. As a result of the stock dividend, Series A and Series B preferred stock will convert at a ratio of 2.5 common share for each preferred share outstanding.

F-7

Use of estimates

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. The recorded value of our cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers control of the product to the customer and the 14-day acceptance period has expired, or acceptance has been received from the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring control of vehicles, parts, and accessories. Consideration that is received in advance of the transfer of goods are recorded as customer deposits until delivery has occurred or the customer cancels their order and the consideration is returned to the customer. Sales and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. If a right of return exists, the Company adjusts revenue for the estimated effect of returns. Until the Company develop sales history, we will estimate expected returns based on industry data for sales returns as a percent of sales, type of product, and a projection of this experience into the future. Our sales do not have a financing component.

Sales promotions and incentives. The Company provides for estimated sales promotions and incentives, which are recognized as a component of sales in measuring the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Examples of sales promotion and incentive programs include distributer fees and volume incentives. Sales promotions and incentives are estimated based on contracts with distributors. The Company records these amounts as a liability in the balance sheet until they are ultimately paid. Adjustments to sales promotions and incentives accruals are made as actual usage becomes known to properly estimate the amounts necessary to generate consumer demand based on market conditions as of the balance sheet date.

Shipping and handling charges and costs. The Company records shipping and handling charged to the customer and related shipping costs as a component of cost of sales when control has transferred to the customer.

Product warranties

The Company provides a one-year warranty on vehicles, and a two-year warranty on the battery pack. The Company accrues warranty reserves at the time a vehicle is delivered to the customer. Warranty reserves include the Company’s best estimate of the projected cost to repair or to replace any items under warranty, based on actual warranty experience as it becomes available and other known factors that may impact our evaluation of historical data. The Company reviews its reserves quarterly to ensure that its accruals are adequate in meeting expected future warranty obligations and will adjust estimates as needed. Factors that could have an impact on the warranty reserve include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, shifts in product mix, changes in warranty coverage periods, product recalls and changes in sales volume. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenues in the statement of operations. The portion of the warranty provision which is expected to be incurred within 12 months from the balance sheet date will be classified as current, while the remaining amount will be classified as long-term liabilities.

F-8

Inventory

Inventory costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs, including depreciation expense associated with the manufacture and distribution of the Company’s products. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Category		Estimated Useful Lives
Machinery, tooling and equipment		3-7 years
Vehicles		5 years
Computers and software		3 years

Long-lived assets

The Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset.

Leases

Right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate, and instead accounts for each separate lease and non-lease component associated with that lease component as a single lease component

ASC 842 defines initial direct costs as only the incremental costs of signing a lease. Initial direct costs related to leasing that are not incremental are expensed as general and administrative expense in our statements of operations.

The Company’s operating lease agreements primarily consist of leased real estate and are included within ROU assets – operating leases and ROU lease liabilities – operating leases on the balance sheets. The Company’s lease agreements may include options to extend the lease, which are not included in minimum lease payments unless they are reasonably certain to be exercised at lease commencement. The Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

Research and development expenses

The Company records research and development expenses in the period in which they are incurred as a component of product development expenses.

Income taxes

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the "asset and liability" method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, when it's more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or non-current based on the underlying asset or liability or if not directly related to an asset or liability based on the expected reversal dates of the specific temporary differences.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company discloses fair value measurements for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

Stock-based compensation

The Company has a stock-based incentive award plan for our employees and directors. The Company measures stock-based compensation at the estimated fair value on the grant date and recognizes the amortization of stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, or when it is probable criteria will be achieved for performance-based awards. Fair value is determined based on assumptions related to the fair value of the Company common stock, stock volatility and risk-free rate of return. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures when realized.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (“ASU 2019-12”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new standard eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. The Company does not believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

Warrants

The common stock warrants issued prior to January 1, 2021 have an exercise price of $0.004 per share, and an exercise term of 10 years, and vest over periods of up to one year. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using the fair value of its common stock based on the most recent fundraising at $4.71 per share. The Company expects to recognize additional compensation expense of $33,682 related to these warrants over their remaining vesting period.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized expense of $24,965 and $13,123,141, respectively, related to common stock warrants. There was no expense recognized for any period presented for 2020 as no warrants were outstanding as of June 30, 2020.

During 2020, the two Company founders, whom are both members of the board directors of the Company and one of which is the Chairman of the Board, each entered into an anti-dilution warrant with the Company. In the event of their ownership of the Company’s fully diluted capitalization being less than 25% or 18.75%, each individual will receive common stock warrants with an exercise price of $0.01 to purchase sufficient shares to return them to those ownership percentages. The warrants were fully vested upon grant and have an exercise period of 10 years from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2020, no warrants were owed to the two founders.

In March 2021, the Company agreed to exchange the two anti-dilution warrants that were issued to Company founders for a total of 11,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.98 for a period of 10 years.

The Company will have the option to settle the amount by issuing shares of common stock based on the closing price of the Company’s stock at the start of the 21-day period. In addition to this payment, each of the two founders will continue to receive a cash payment equal to 1% of the gross sale price in the event of a change of control of the Company with a sale price of at least $100,000,000. In connection with the exchange, the Company recognized expense of $13,031,989 for the estimated fair value of the warrants on a Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing the following assumptions: 1) volatility of 106% based on a peer group of companies; 2) risk-free rate of 1.67%; 3) dividend rate of 0.0%; and 4) an expected term of 10 years.

NOTE 7 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In January 2021, the Company’s board of directors adopted the Volcon, Inc. 2021 Stock Plan, (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan is a stock-based compensation plan that provides for discretionary grants of stock options, stock awards, and restricted stock unit awards to employees, members of the board of directors and consultants (including restricted stock units issued prior to the adoption of the plan as further discussed below). The Company has reserved a total of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the 2021 Plan, which may be adjusted for changes in capitalization and certain corporate transactions. To the extent that an award, if forfeitable, expires, terminates or lapses, or an award is otherwise settled in cash without the delivery of shares of common stock to the participant, then any unpaid shares subject to the award will be available for future grant or issuance under the 2021 Plan. Shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan as of June 30, 2021 were 1,176,875. Shares vest according to each agreement and as long as the employee remains employed with the Company or the consultant continues to provide services in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The Company has granted awards with time-based vesting and performance-based vesting features.

Restricted Stock Units

Beginning in October 2020, the Company entered into various agreements with employees where the Company agreed to award a total of 637,500 shares of restricted stock units which vest equally over a period of three years.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized expense of $100,088 and $200,175, respectively, related to these restricted stock awards. The Company expects to recognize additional compensation expense of $942,000 related to these restricted stock units assuming all awards will vest.

NOTE 8 –LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

The basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of common shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Common shares consisting of common stock warrants, stock options and restricted stock units totaling 13,289,237 and Series A and Series B preferred stock of 1,191,38 and 1,105,827, respectively, convertible into 5,743,036 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2021 and any potential shares issuable under the anti-dilution warrants discussed above were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share due to their antidilutive effect. There were no dilutive instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and there were no common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2020.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

Deferred taxes are determined by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws and rates for the jurisdictions in which the Company operates to the estimated future tax effects of the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the Company's financial statements. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized.

The main reconciling items between the statutory tax rate of the Company and the effective tax rate are the non-recognition of the benefits from accumulated net operating losses carryforward due to the uncertainty of the realization of such tax benefits.

	Three months ended June 30, 2021			Three months ended June 30, 2020			Six months ended June 30, 2021			February 21, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020

Valuation allowance		(1,511,500	)		(242,000	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	–		$	–

Management currently believes that since the Company has a history of losses it is more likely than not that the deferred tax regarding the loss carry forwards and other temporary differences will not be realized in the foreseeable future. The Company believes that carryforward limitations will be applied to the historical net operating losses due to the recent change of control transition. The Company's cumulative net operating loss carry forward of approximately $7,197,000 as of June 30, 2021 may be limited in future years depending on future taxable income in any given fiscal year.

F-16

The Company has recorded no liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits at the date of adoption and has not recorded any liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any interest or penalty in regard to any unrecognized benefit.

NOTE 10 – LEASES

The Company did not have any leases during the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020. The components of lease cost for operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2021		Six months Ended June 20, 2020

(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Organization and Nature of Operations

Volcon, Inc. (“Volcon”) was formed on February 21, 2020 as a Delaware Corporation, under the name Frog EPowersports, Inc. The Company was renamed Volcon on October 1, 2020. Volcon is developer and manufacturer of all-electric off road powersport vehicles.

Going Concern

Impact of COVID-19

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Basis of presentation

The basis of accounting applied is United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

Cash and cash equivalents

F-24

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are comprised of unsecured amounts due from customers. The Company carries its accounts receivable at their face amounts less an allowance for bad debts. The allowance for bad debts is recognized based on management’s estimate of likely losses per year, based on past experience and review of customer profiles and the aging of receivable balances. As of December 31, 2020, the allowance for bad debts was $0.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when we transfer control of the product to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring control of our vehicles, parts and accessories. Consideration that is received in advance of the transfer of goods is deferred until delivery has occurred. Sales and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. If a right of return exists, we adjust revenue for the estimated effect of returns. Until we develop sales history, we will estimate expected returns based on industry data for sales returns as a percent of sales, type of product, and a projection of this experience into the future. Our sales do not have a financing component.

Product warranties

The Company provides a one-year warranty on vehicles, and a two-year warranty on the battery pack. The Company accrues warranty reserves at the time a vehicle is delivered to the customer. Warranty reserves include the Company’s best estimate of the projected cost to repair or to replace any items under warranty, based on actual warranty experience as it becomes available and other known factors that may impact our evaluation of historical data. The Company reviews its reserves quarterly to ensure that its accruals are adequate in meeting expected future warranty obligations, and will adjust estimates as needed. Factors that could have an impact on the warranty reserve include the following: changes in manufacturing quality, shifts in product mix, changes in warranty coverage periods, product recalls and changes in sales volume. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenues in the statement of operations. The portion of the warranty provision which is expected to be incurred within 12 months from the balance sheet date will be classified as current, while the remaining amount will be classified as long-term liabilities.

Inventory

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Category		Estimated Useful Lives
Machinery, tooling and equipment		3-7 years
Vehicles		5-7 years
Computers and software		3 years

F-25

Intangible assets and long-lived assets

The Company’s intangible asset recognizes an acquired intangible asset apart from goodwill whenever the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights, or when it can be separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Such intangibles are amortized over their useful lives. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

The Company’s long-lived assets, including intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset.

Leases

The Company leases certain facilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate, and instead accounts for each separate lease and non-lease component associated with that lease component as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include advertising and marketing costs which are expensed as incurred. Also included in selling, general and administrative expenses are software development costs and professional fees.

Product development expenses

The Company records product development expenses in the period in which they are incurred as a component of operating expenses.

Income taxes

Fair value of financial instruments

The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

F-26

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

Stock-based compensation

The Company measures the total amount of employee stock-based compensation expense for a grant based on the grant date fair value of each award and recognizes the stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of an award. Stock-based compensation is based on unvested outstanding awards. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures when realized.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (“ASU 2019-12”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new standard eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its financial statements.

In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years using the fully retrospective or modified retrospective method. Early adoption is permitted but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its financial statements.

Upon a future equity financing, the SAFE agreements will convert into the same securities in that equity financing at the lower of the price per share of the funding, or a price per share based on a $5 million company valuation using a fully diluted common stock basis. The SAFE agreements have no interest rate or maturity date and the SAFE investors have no voting right prior to conversion. The SAFE agreements were recorded as a liability of $2,000,000 as of December 31, 2020. In January 2021, upon closing of the preferred stock offering, the amount invested under the SAFE agreements automatically converted into 424,269 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

The Company expects to recognize additional compensation expense of $124,834 related to these warrants over their remaining vesting period.

Additionally, two of the Company’s founders, whom are both directors and one of which is the Chairman of the Board, each entered into an anti-dilution warrant with the Company. In the event of their ownership of the Company’s fully diluted capitalization being less than 25% or 18.75%, each individual will receive common stock warrants with an exercise price of $0.0041 to purchase sufficient shares to return them to those ownership percentages. The warrants were fully vested upon grant and have an exercise period of 10 years from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2020, no warrants were owed to the two founders. As discussed below, subsequent to December 31, 2020, the anti-dilution warrants were exchanged for a fixed number of warrants.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant to serve as Chief Operating Officer and to manage the Company’s product development efforts. The consultant will provide statements of work for the various projects it will execute as compensation, and charge the Company hourly rates for its service for annual periods to be renewed by mutual agreement. The Company also agreed to compensate the consultant $5,560 per month for the use of its warehouse and office space on a month to month basis. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company amended the agreement to increase the rental cost to $11,200 per month, with a 90 day cancellation provision.

Mr. Leisner also received 187,500 shares of common stock vesting annually over three years as disclosed above.

F-29

NOTE 7 – INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

The basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of common shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Common shares consisting of 151,590 shares issuable under common stock warrants and any potential shares issuable under the anti-dilution warrants discussed above were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share due to their antidilutive effect. There were no dilutive instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2020.

F-30

Management currently believes that since the Company has a history of losses it is more likely than not that the deferred tax regarding the loss carry forwards and other temporary differences will not be realized in the foreseeable future. The Company believes that carryforward limitations will be applied to the historical net operating losses due to the recent change of control transition. The Company's cumulative net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1,153,000 that may be limited in future years depending on future taxable income in any given fiscal year.

The Company has recorded no liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits at the date of adoption and has not recorded any liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits during 2020. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any interest or penalty in regard to any unrecognized benefit.

NOTE 9 – LEASES

The Company entered into an operating lease with an entity controlled by two of the Company’s founders for its future headquarters and production facility in Liberty Hill, Texas. The lease has a lease term of 5 years, and monthly payments ranging from approximately $15,000 per month to $17,000 per month over the lease term. For purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms may be deemed to include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. In February 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to this lease to expand the leased premises. The Company paid an additional security deposit of $139,230 and additional prepaid rent of $315,588. The total minimum lease payments under the amended lease total approximately $3,930,170.

The components of lease cost for operating leases for the period from February 21, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020 were as follows:

	December 31, 2020

NOTE 10– SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 5, 2021, the Company created Volcon ePowersports, LLC, a Delaware wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

In February 2021, the Company designed 1,100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.0001, has no voting rights, no dividends and each share automatically converts into 2.5 shares of common stock of the Company at the time of the Company’s initial public Offering. In March 2021, the Company increased the authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock to 1,400,000.

In January 2021, the Board of Directors allocated 250,000 restricted stock units to be issued to certain employees upon reaching certain performance milestones.

In January 2021 the Company completed a WeFunder SAFE offering which is convertible into Preferred Stock upon future financing events. The Company received gross proceeds of $2,258,940 and paid expenses of $53,500, reflected as costs of capital. In connection with the Regulation D Series A Preferred stock offering as discussed below, the WeFunder SAFE investments were converted into 351,832 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

In February 2021, the Company completed a Regulation D offering of its Series A Preferred Stock. The Company received gross proceeds of $2,669,978 and issued 415,287 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Company paid expenses of $205,470 related to the offering, reflected as costs of capital, and issued 79,750 common shares and 79,750 warrants with an exercise price of $2.57 to broker dealers. This equity financing resulted in the SAFE investments of $2 million as of December 31, 2020 converting into 424,269 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

In February 2021, Volcon ePowersports, LLC also entered into a new lease in Denver, Colorado for a retail showroom, service and warehouse space. The lease term is for five years with an expected commencement date of May 1, 2021, with two additional five-year term options available to the Company. The Company has a one-time option to terminate the lease after three years. The Company prepaid approximately $105,000 of rental payments and paid a security deposit of $53,377 upon execution of the lease. Total lease payments for the initial five-year term are approximately $940,000.

F-32

In March 2021, the Company designated 1,500,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.00001 per share and a stated value of $9.50 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock will receive dividends equivalent to any such dividends paid on common stock in the future, has no voting rights, and will automatically convert into an equivalent amount of common shares upon completion of the Company’s initial public offering. In March 2021, the Board of Directors approved the sale of up to $10,000,000 of Series B Preferred stock at $9.50 per share. As of April 28, 2021, the Company has received gross proceeds of approximately $6,400,000 related to the sale of 677,333 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The sale of Series B preferred stock is ongoing.

In March 2021, the Company agreed to exchange the two anti-dilution warrants that were issued to Company founders for a total of 11,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.98 for a period of 10 years. In connection with this exchange, the Company amended its existing consulting agreements with the founders, to allow for the payment of compensation totaling $30,000,000 in the event that the Company’s market capitalization exceeds $300,000,000 for 21 consecutive trading days. The Company will have the option to settle the amount by issuing shares of common stock based on the closing price of the Company’s stock at the start of the 21 day period. In addition to this payment, each of the two founders will continue to receive a cash payment equal to 1% of the gross sale price in the event of a change of control of the Company with a sale price of at least $100,000,000.

On March 22, 2021, the Company entered into a new lease for office space with a term of three years beginning April 1, 2021. Total lease payments over the term are approximately $295,000.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than a derivative action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or serving at the request of such corporation in such capacity for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of such corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

The DGCL also permits indemnification by a corporation under similar circumstances for expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with the defense or settlement of a derivative action or suit, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to such corporation unless the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

To the extent a present or former director or officer is successful in the defense of such an action, suit or proceeding referenced above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, a corporation is required by the DGCL to indemnify such person for actual and reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such persons in defending any action, suit or proceeding may be paid in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon in the case of a current officer or director, receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be so indemnified.

The DGCL provides that the indemnification described above shall not be deemed exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation pursuant to its bylaws, disinterested directors’ vote, stockholders’ vote and agreement or otherwise.

II-1

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL enables a corporation, in its certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto, to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for violations of the directors’ fiduciary duty, except (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation provides for such limitations on liability for its directors.

The DGCL also provides corporations with the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation in a similar capacity for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability as described above. In connection with this offering, the Registrant will obtain liability insurance for its directors and officers. Such insurance would be available to its directors and officers in accordance with its terms.

The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation requires the Registrant to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person (a “covered person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or member of a committee of the Registrant, or, while a director or officer of the Registrant, is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director or officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or non-profit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgment, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with a proceeding.

In addition, under the Registrant’s certificate of incorporation, in certain circumstances, the Registrant shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a covered person in defending a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding; provided, however, that the Registrant shall not be required to advance any expenses to a person against whom the Registrant directly brings an action, suit or proceeding alleging that such person (1) committed an act or omission not in good faith or (2) committed an act of intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Additionally, an advancement of expenses incurred by a covered person shall be made only upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such covered person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal or otherwise in accordance with Delaware law that such covered person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

In addition, the Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers that provide for additional indemnification protections, which form of agreement has been filed as an exhibit to this registration statement.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

Except as set forth below, in the three years preceding the filing of this Registration Statement, the Registrant has not issued any securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:

On September 21, 2020, the Company issued its founding shareholders an aggregate of 775,000.

On August 28, 2020, the Company entered into consulting agreements with Pink Possum, LLC (“Pink Possum”), an entity controlled by Mr. Okonsky, and Highbridge Consultants, LLC (“Highbridge”), an entity controlled by Mr. James. In consideration for entering into the consulting agreements, the Company issued the two entities ten-year warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the warrants was based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the time of exercise and provided that Pink Possum and Highbridge would receive 18.75% and 25%, respectively, of our shares of common stock outstanding at the time of exercise on a fully diluted basis. On March 26, 2021, Pink Possum and Highbridge entered into amendments to the consulting agreements agreeing to exchange the original warrants for new ten-year warrants to purchase 1,900,000 and 2,500,000 shares, respectively, of common stock at an exercise price of $2.46.

In September 2020, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 60,636 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share to consultants.

II-2

From September 2020 to October 2020, the Company issued $2,000,000 of SAFE securities (the “SAFE I securities”) to investors in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. From November 2020 to December 2020, the Company completed an offering pursuant to Regulation CF of the Securities Act pursuant to which it issued $1,070,000 in January 2021 of a new class SAFE securities (the “SAFE II securities”) to investors. From November 2020 to December 2020, the Company completed an offering of SAFE II securities to investors in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, pursuant to which it issued $1,188,940 of SAFE II securities in January 2021.

Between January and April 2021, the Company sold 415,287 shares of Series A preferred stock at $6.43 per share and issued 776,101 shares of Series A preferred stock upon the conversion of the SAFE I securities and SAFE II securities and 1,105,827 shares of Series B preferred stock at $9.50 per share in a private placement. The issuances were made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder,

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

(a) Exhibits: Reference is made to the Exhibit Index following the signature pages hereto, which Exhibit Index is hereby incorporated into this Item.

(b) Consolidated Financial Statement Schedules: All schedules are omitted because the required information is inapplicable or the information is presented in the financial statements and the related notes.

Item 17. Undertakings

The undersigned hereby undertakes:

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

II-3

(i) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C (§ 230.430C of this chapter), each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§ 230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of this chapter);

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
