Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank
If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other agent, you should have received a proxy card and voting instructions with these proxy materials from that organization. Simply complete and mail the proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted. Alternatively, you may vote over the Internet as instructed by your broker or bank.

How do I change my vote or revoke my proxy?
You may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the Special Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy by:
| ● | delivering, to the attention of the Secretary at the address on the first page of this Proxy Statement, a written notice of revocation of your proxy; | |
| ● | delivering to us an authorized proxy bearing a later date (including a proxy over the Internet); or | |
| ● | attending the Special Meeting and voting electronically, as indicated above under “How do I vote?”. Attendance at the Special Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy. |
| 3 |
If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee. Please note that if your shares are held of record by a bank, broker or other nominee, and you decide to attend and vote at the Special Meeting, your vote at the Special Meeting will not be effective unless you present a legal proxy, issued in your name from the record holder (your bank, broker or other nominee).
If I vote in advance, can I still attend the Special Meeting?
Yes. You are encouraged to vote promptly by returning your signed proxy card by mail or, if applicable, by appointing a proxy to vote electronically via the Internet or by telephone so that your shares will be represented at the Special Meeting. However, returning your proxy card does not affect your right to attend the Special Meeting.
How many votes are required for the approval of each of the Proposals, and how will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated?
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting, voting together as a single class, is required for the approval of each of the Proposals.
Abstentions
A stockholder may abstain from voting with respect to each item submitted for stockholder approval. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. For the Proposal, abstentions will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the vote.
Broker Non-Votes
A broker non-vote occurs when a broker submits a proxy card with respect to shares of Common Stock held in a fiduciary capacity (typically referred to as being held in “street name”), but declines to vote on a particular matter because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker or nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. In the event that a broker, bank, or other agent indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a non-routine proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes. We believe that the Proposals in this Proxy Statement are non-routine proposals; therefore, your broker, bank or other agent will not be entitled to vote on the Proposals without your instructions. Broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum or be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the vote on the Proposal.
Can the Special Meeting be adjourned?
Our Bylaws provide that the chairperson of the Special Meeting may decide to adjourn the Special Meeting without any action by the stockholders as appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting of stockholders. Additionally, the stockholders present by a majority in voting power may decide to adjourn the Special Meeting until a quorum has been obtained.
What is the deadline for submitting a proxy?
To ensure that proxies are received in time to be counted prior to the Special Meeting, proxies submitted by Internet or by telephone should be received by 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time on the day prior to the date of the Special Meeting, and proxies submitted by mail should be received by the close of business on the day prior to the date of the Special Meeting.
| 4 |
What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card from the Company?
If you hold your shares in more than one account, you will receive a proxy card for each account. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, please complete, sign, date and return a proxy card for each account or use the proxy card for each account to vote by Internet or by telephone. To ensure that all of your shares are represented at the Special Meeting, we recommend that you vote every proxy card that you receive.
Can I ask questions at the virtual Special Meeting?
Stockholders as of the Record Date who attend and participate in our virtual Special Meeting will have an opportunity to submit questions live via the Internet during a designated portion of the Special Meeting. To ensure the orderly conduct of the Special Meeting, we encourage you to submit questions in advance of the Special Meeting until 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time the day before the Special Meeting by going to [●] and logging in with your control number.

Only questions pertinent to meeting matters will be answered during the meeting, subject to time constraints, and in accordance with our rules of conduct for the Special Meeting.
How do I ask questions during the Special Meeting?

PROPOSAL 1: APPROVAL OF THE 2025 WARRANT EXERCISE PROPOSAL
The Company is asking stockholders to approve, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of up to (i) 4,876,860 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the outstanding Common Warrants and (ii) 682,760 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants.
Background
On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional accredited investor. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on April 7, 2025, the Company issued 3,850,000 shares (the “Shares”) of Class A Common Stock and pre-funded warrant to purchase up to 1,026,860 shares of Class A Common Stock (“Pre-Funded Warrant,” and the shares issuable upon exercise thereof, the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”) in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules (the “Registered Direct Offering”). The public offering price for each Share was $0.8202 and the public offering price for each Pre-Funded Warrant was $0.8201. In addition, in a concurrent private placement (together with the Registered Direct Offering, the “April 2025 Offering”), the Company issued unregistered Common Warrants, to purchase in the aggregate up to 4,876,860 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Common Warrant Shares”). The net proceeds to the Company from the offering of the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrant and the Common Warrants were approximately $3.2 million after payment of the placement agent’s fees and expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the April 2025 Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, is exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until exercised in full. The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $0.8202 per share, are exercisable upon the receipt of stockholder approval of Proposal 1 and will expire five years from the date of such stockholder approval. The purchaser will not have the right to exercise any portion of the Common Warrants or the Pre-Funded Warrant if the purchaser (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Common Warrants or the Pre-Funded Warrant.
In connection with the April 2025 Offering, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Placement Agent”). Pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company paid the Placement Agent and issued the Placement Agent Warrants to the Placement Agent or its designees to purchase up to 682,760 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Placement Agent Shares”) (which represented 7.0% of the sum of the aggregate number of Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares and the Common Warrant Shares). These warrants have an exercise price of $0.8202 per share, become exercisable upon the receipt of stockholder approval of Proposal 1, will expire on April 4, 2030, and are not transferable for 180 days from the date of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain exceptions under FINRA rules.
In the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Class A Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock or file any registration statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto from the date of the Purchase Agreement until 60 days after the stockholder approval date, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the Company has agreed not to effect or enter into an agreement to effect any issuance of Class A Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) from the closing date of the April 2025 Offering (the “Closing”) until August 29, 2025, subject to certain exceptions.
The Board is not seeking the approval of our stockholders to authorize our entry into or consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement, as the April 2025 Offering have already been completed, and the Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants have already been issued. We are only asking for approval to issue the Common Warrant Shares and Placement Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.
| 6 |
Rights and Limitations
We have agreed to file a resale registration statement with the SEC within 45 days of the date of the Purchase Agreement to register the resale of the Common Warrant Shares. We must use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 181 days following the Closing.
Reasons for Seeking Stockholder Approval
Our Class A Common Stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
The Nasdaq 20% Rule. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction, other than a public offering, involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by the company of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock), which alone or together with sales by officers, directors or substantial stockholders of the company, equals 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance, in each case, at a price that is less than the “Minimum Price.” The Minimum Price is the lower of (1) the Nasdaq official closing price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (2) the average Nasdaq official closing price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement.
The Company is asking stockholders to approve the issuance of up to (i) 4,876,860 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Common Warrants and (ii) 682,760 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants, because in the absence of stockholder approval, such issuance would result in the April 2025 Offering violating Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).
We have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to hold a special meeting of stockholders seeking stockholder approval of the issuance of the Common Warrant Shares and Placement Agent Shares by June 6, 2025. If we do not obtain such stockholder approval at the Special Meeting, we are obligated to call a meeting every 60 days thereafter to seek such stockholder approval until the earlier of the date on which such stockholder approval is obtained or the Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants are no longer outstanding.
Stockholder approval of this Proposal 1 will constitute stockholder approval for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) and will satisfy our obligation to obtain stockholder approval under the Purchase Agreement.
Consequences for Failing to Obtain Stockholder Approval
In the event that this Proposal 1 is not approved by our stockholders, we are obligated to call a meeting every 60 days thereafter to seek such stockholder approval until the earlier of the date on which such stockholder approval is obtained or the Common Warrants are no longer outstanding. Such requirement to include such proposal potentially multiple times after this Special Meeting imposes significant costs on us, including legal and accounting costs, and diversion of management attention.
The Common Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants are not exercisable until we obtain stockholder approval. Thus, failure to obtain such approval will prevent the holders of the Common Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants from exercising such warrants, and we will not be able to receive the exercise price for such warrants until we have obtained stockholder approval.
Potential Adverse Effects
If our stockholders vote to approve the issuance of the Common Warrant Shares and Placement Agent Shares, the issuances will not require any additional approval by our stockholders. The issuance of such Class A Common Stock will have a dilutive effect on current stockholders other than the holders that exercise such warrants, in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such other current stockholders will decline as a result of the issuance of such Class A Common Stock. The issuance of such Class A Common Stock will also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for our Class A Common Stock to decline. The dilutive impact of the Common Warrant Shares and Placement Agent Shares issuance cannot be fully determined as of the date hereof as such Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants are only expected to be exercised if the market price of the Class A Common Stock is above the $0.8202 exercise price thereof, and the timing and market price at the time of exercise will not be known until the applicable date of exercise of the Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.
| 7 |
Factors Considered by the Board in its Recommendation
After careful consideration at the time of the April 2025 Offering, our Board determined that the April 2025 Offering was in the best interest of the Company in light of the Company’s cash and funding requirements.
After further careful consideration, including of the Company’s current cash and funding requirements, our Board determined to recommend that our stockholders approve the issuance of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the Common Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.
We currently intend to use the proceeds from such exercises for working capital and other general corporate purposes. However, we cannot predict when and in what amounts or if the Common Warrants or Placement Agent Warrants will be exercised by payments of cash, and it is possible that the Common Warrants or Placement Agent Warrants may expire and never be exercised, in which case we would not receive any cash proceeds.
Required Vote
The affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, voting together as a single class, present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting is required for the approval of the 2025 Warrant Exercise Proposal.
Board Recommendation
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” PROPOSAL 1
| 8 |
PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL OF THE WARRANT REPRICING PROPOSAL
The Company is asking stockholders to approve, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the repricing of the Existing Warrants.
Background
As previously disclosed in Proposal 1, on April 4, 2025, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with the purchaser in which we sold, and the purchaser purchased, in connection with the April 2025 Offering, the Shares, Pre-Funded Warrant and Common Warrants.
In connection with the April 2025 Offering, the Company also amended the Existing Warrants that were previously issued by the Company on July 24, 2024 to the purchaser, to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,755,396 shares of Class A Common Stock, to reduce the exercise price from $1.39 per share to $0.8202 per share. The Company also extended the term of the Series B warrants from January 3, 2026 to April 3, 2026. The Existing Warrants will be immediately exercisable upon the receipt of stockholder approval.
Reasons for Seeking Stockholder Approval
Since the Existing Warrants previously received stockholder approval for the issuance of up to 5,755,396 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.39 per share, stockholder approval is again required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) to permit the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Existing Warrants at the lower exercise price of $0.8202.
Stockholder approval of this Proposal 2 will constitute stockholder approval for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).
Potential Adverse Effects
If our stockholders vote to approve the repricing of the Existing Warrants, the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Existing Warrants at the lower exercise price will not require any additional approval by our stockholders. The issuance of such Class A Common Stock will have a dilutive effect on current stockholders other than the holders that exercise such warrants, in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such other current stockholders will decline as a result of the issuance of such Class A Common Stock. The issuance of such Class A Common Stock will also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for our Class A Common Stock to decline. The dilutive impact of the issuance of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Existing Warrants cannot be fully determined as of the date hereof as the Existing Warrants are only expected to be exercised if the market price of the Class A Common Stock is above the $0.8202 exercise price thereof, and the timing and market price at the time of exercise will not be known until the applicable date of exercise of the Existing Warrants.
Consequences for Failing to Obtain Stockholder Approval
In the event that this Proposal 2 is not approved by our stockholders, we are obligated to call a meeting every 60 days thereafter to seek such stockholder approval until the earlier of the date on which such stockholder approval is obtained or the Existing Warrants are no longer outstanding. Such requirement to include such proposal potentially multiple times after this Special Meeting imposes significant costs on us, including legal and accounting costs, and diversion of management attention.
The Existing Warrants are not exercisable at the reduced exercise price until we obtain stockholder approval. Thus, failure to obtain such approval will prevent holders of the Existing Warrants from exercising at the reduced price, and we will not be able to receive the exercise price for such Existing Warrants until we have obtained stockholder approval.
Factors Considered by the Board in its Recommendation
After careful consideration, including of the Company’s current cash and funding requirements, our Board determined that our stockholders approve the Warrant Repricing Proposal.
Required Vote
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, voting together as a single class, present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting is required for the approval of the Warrant Repricing Proposal.

PROPOSAL 3: APPROVAL OF THE EQUITY GRANT PROPOSAL
The Company is asking stockholders to approve, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c), the grants of restricted Class B Common Stock awards (“RSAs”) made outside of the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan to certain founders, directors, and officer of the Company, each pursuant to a separate award agreement.
Background
In recognition of certain founders, directors, and officer’s recent fundraising efforts, including the April 2025 Offering, described above in Proposal 1, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) and the Board approved grants of RSAs to each of Mr. Samini, Mr. Peterson, and Mr. Goerner. These grants were made outside of the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan and are subject to stockholder approval.

Subject to obtaining stockholder approval of Proposal 3, each of the foregoing grants will be made pursuant to a separate award agreement between the recipient and the Company. The holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to ten votes for each share of Class B Common Stock. Holders of Class B Common Stock may elect at any time to convert such outstanding share of Class B Common Stock into one share of Class A Common Stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock are also subject to automatic conversion into shares of Class A Common Stock upon the occurrence of certain events or, if not previously converted, upon the seventh anniversary of the consummation of the merger with Chavant Capital Acquisition Corp.

Reasons for Seeking Stockholder Approval
Our Class A Common Stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c) requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities when an equity compensation arrangement is made or materially amended, pursuant to which stock may be acquired by officers, directors, employees or consultants, subject to certain exceptions outlined in such rule.
Stockholder approval of this Proposal 3 will constitute stockholder approval for purpose of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c).
Potential Adverse Effects
If our stockholders vote to approve the grant of RSAs, such issuance will have a dilutive effect on current stockholders other than the recipients of the RSAs. The issuance of such RSAs will also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share.
Holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to ten votes for each share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder on all matters to be voted on by stockholders except as otherwise required by applicable law or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to Mobix Labs or by or pursuant to the Charter. As such, the difference in voting rights could adversely affect the value of our Class A Common Stock by, for example, delaying or deferring a change of control or if investors view, or any potential future purchaser of our company views, the superior voting rights of the Class B Common Stock to have value. Because of the ten-to-one voting ratio between our Class B Common Stock and Class A Common Stock, the holders of our Class B Common Stock collectively possess a significant amount of voting power of our common stock.
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock present by virtual attendance or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting, voting together as a single class, is required for the approval of the Equity Grant Proposal.
Board Recommendation
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” THE EQUITY GRANT PROPOSAL.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock by:
| ● | each person who is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock; |
| ● | each of our named executive officers and directors; and |
| ● | all of our executive officers and directors as a group. |
Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. In computing the number of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership, we deemed outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock subject to options and warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this Proxy Statement. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by them.
Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o Mobix Labs, Inc., 1 Venture Plaza, Suite 220, Irvine, CA 92618.
The percentage ownership of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is based on 45,641,748 shares of Class A Common Stock and 2,004,901 shares of Class B Common Stock, respectively, outstanding as of April 18, 2025.

| (7) | Includes (i) 3,715,637 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (ii) 1,026,860 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrant. This amount does not include 4,876,860 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Common Warrants or 5,755,396 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Existing Warrants, as the exercise of these warrants is subject to stockholder approval under Proposal 1. The securities are directly held by Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Master Fund”), and may be deemed to be beneficially owned by: (i) Armistice Capital, LLC (“Armistice Capital”), as the investment manager of the Master Fund; and (ii) Steven Boyd, as the Managing Member of Armistice Capital. The Existing Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% and 9.99%, respectively, which restricts the holder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the holder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation. The address of Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. is c/o Armistice Capital, LLC, 510 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10022. |
