Exro Technologies Inc. (TSX: EXRO, OTCQB: EXROF) (the "Company" or "Exro"), a leading clean technology company that has developed industry disruptive next generation power electronics that expands the capabilities of electric motors and batteries, announced today that it has closed its previously announced brokered public offering (the "Offering"). Pursuant to the Offering, Exro sold 7,920,000 units ("Units") at a price of $1.05 per Unit (the "Issue Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of $8,316,000. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one share purchase warrant of the Company (each, a "Warrant") entitling the holder thereof to acquire, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, an additional Common Share at an exercise price of $1.36 for a period of 48 months following the closing of the Offering (the "Closing Date"), provided that if at any time after the Closing Date the closing price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), or such other stock exchange where the majority of the trading volume occurs, exceeds or is equal to $2.72 per Common Share (on a volume-weighted adjusted basis) for a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days, the Company may, at its sole discretion, elect to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is 30 calendar days after the Company issues a press release announcing that it has exercised such acceleration right. The Warrants are governed by the terms of a warrant indenture (the "Indenture") dated September 1, 2022 between the Company and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as warrant agent, a copy of which will be available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. For further details regarding the Warrants, please refer to the Indenture.

"In the years ahead, we know that the transition to electric in the transportation and energy storage sectors will accelerate and the sources of this electricity will be sustainable", said Chief Executive Officer Sue Ozdemir. "We understand that these are challenging markets for both companies and investors. Between the brokered public offering closing today, and the concurrent non-brokered private placement set to close near mid-September, the Company is through our $10 million target. We are happy to have the support of shareholders to continue our mission to deliver transformative technology to customers that differentiates their product offerings from the competition while bridging the cost-performance gap."

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to support the Company's growth plans through the development of key partnerships, R&D investments, manufacturing facilities, working capital and for general corporate purposes which advance Exro's mission to deliver industry disruptive next-generation power control technology that bridges the cost-performance gap and accelerates the electrification transition in mobility and energy storage.

The Offering was completed pursuant to an agency agreement ("Agency Agreement") dated August 25, 2022, among the Company and National Bank Financial Inc. as lead agent and sole book-runner, and Stifel GMP, ATB Capital Markets Inc. and Eight Capital (collectively, the "Agents"). The Agents were paid a commission of 6% in respect of Units sold by them in the Offering.

The Units were offered by way of a prospectus supplement dated August 25, 2022 (the "Prospectus Supplement") to the Company's base shelf prospectus dated December 16, 2021 (the "Base Shelf Prospectus"), which Prospectus Supplement was filed with the securities regulators in each of the provinces of Canada, other than Québec. Copies of the Prospectus Supplement, accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus and Agency Agreement are available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
