| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On February 16, 2022,
Beam Global (“Beam”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with AllCell Technologies,
LLC (“AllCell”), a leader in energy storage solutions and technologies, whereby Beam agreed to purchase substantially all
of the assets and business of AllCell for 1,055,000 shares of Beam Common Stock at closing (the “Closing Consideration”).
The Closing Consideration is subject to a cash adjustment based on the net amount of certain AllCell assets and liabilities (primarily
consisting of inventory minus customer deposits) purchased by Beam at Closing. In addition, AllCell is eligible to earn an additional
number of shares of Beam Common Stock if it meets certain revenue milestones (the “Earnout Consideration”). The Earnout Consideration
is: (i) two times the amount of AllCell revenue and contracted backlog that is greater than $7.5 million for 2022, and (ii) two times
the amount of AllCell 2023 revenue only which exceeds the greater of $13.5 million and 135% of the 2022 revenue, capped at $20 million.
Revenues exceeding $20 million in 2023 will not be eligible for the Earnout Consideration. The Closing Consideration and the Earnout Consideration
is referred to as the “Purchase Price.”
The closing of the transactions
underlying the Purchase Agreement is expected to occur on or around March 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. The Purchase
Agreement includes customary indemnification provisions and a number of other covenants and agreements of the parties concerning the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
All Beam Common Stock
issued to AllCell to satisfy the Closing Consideration and any Earnout Consideration will be issued in a private placement and will be
subject to transfer restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Beam has agreed to file a resale registration statement
with the SEC to register the resale of up to $10 million of the Common Stock issued to AllCell for the Closing Consideration. Pursuant
to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, AllCell agreed not to sell shares of Beam Common Stock (i) in an amount greater than four percent
(4%) of the average weekly volume of shares of Beam Common Stock during any trading week and (ii) on more than three days in any week
and (iii) in an amount greater than ten percent (10%) of the average daily trading volume on any trading day.
The preceding description of the Purchase Agreement
does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement which is filed as an Exhibit to this Current
Report on Form 8-K. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit
of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and: (i) may be intended not as statements of fact but rather as a way of allocating risk among
the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate; and (ii) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other
dates as may be specified in the Purchase Agreement and are subject to more recent developments. Accordingly, any such representations
and warranties should not be relied upon as characterizations of the actual state of facts or affairs on the date they were made or at
any other time.
| Item 3.02. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. |
The information set forth
in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The
issuance and sale of the shares of Beam Common Stock to AllCell for the Purchase Price will not be registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the
Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

Regulation FD Disclosure |
On February 23, 2022, the Company posted on its
corporate website a recent video. In the video, Desmond Wheatley, President, CEO and Chairman of the Company, discuss the transaction
with AllCell. The Video is available on the Company’s website at https://beamforall.com/beam-ceo-interview-allcell-technologies-aquisition/.
The information contained in the video is summary
information that should be considered in the context of the Company’s filings with the SEC and other public announcements the Company
may make by press release or otherwise from time to time. The information contained in the video speaks as of its date.
The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current
Report on Form 8-K, including the information in the video, is furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for
the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject
to the liabilities of that section.
The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current
Report on Form 8-K, including the information in the video, shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this Current Report, regardless of any
general incorporation language in any such filing.

“project,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “think,” “will,” “would”
and similar expressions, or they may use future dates. These forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties

as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as expressly required by law. All forward-looking statements
