Record Date and Voting Power

Our Board fixed the closure of business on [  ], 2026 as the Record Date for the determination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to notice of, and to vote on, the matters presented at this Meeting.

As of the Record Date, there were [  ] shares of Class A Common Stock and [  ] shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding. Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote. Each share of Class B Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to ten votes on the applicable proposals.

Quorum and Adjournment

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence by remote communication or by proxy of the holders of 33 and 1/3 percent of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote constitutes a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e. shares held by brokers on behalf of their customers, which may not be voted on certain matters because the brokers have not received specific voting instructions from their customers with respect to such matters) will be counted solely for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Meeting and at any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no direct effect on the outcome of the proposals.

If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, the Chairman of the Meeting has authority under the Company’s Bylaws to adjourn the Meeting; the vote of a majority of the voting power of shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the Meeting, though less than a quorum may also adjourn the Meeting under the Bylaws. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” will not be counted as votes cast on such adjournment and will have no effect on the adjournment vote.

What stockholder vote is required for the approval of each proposal at the Meeting?

The following are the vote requirements for the approval of the proposals at the Meeting and at any adjournment or postponement thereof:

A stockholder vote may be taken on one or more of the proposals in this Proxy Statement prior to an adjournment of the Meeting if there are sufficient votes for approval of such proposal(s); any such vote will be final, even if the Meeting is adjourned.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

Our Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

What is the proxy card?

The card enables you to appoint Joseph Davy as your representative at this Meeting. By completing and returning the proxy card, you are authorizing these people to vote your shares at this Meeting in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card. This way, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend this Meeting. Even if you plan to attend this Meeting, it is strongly recommended to complete and return your proxy card before 11:59 p.m. ET on [  ], 2026, in case your plans change. If a proposal comes up for vote at this Meeting that is not on the proxy card, the proxies will vote your shares according to their best judgment.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Certain of our stockholders hold their shares in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee holder, rather than holding share certificates in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder of Record/Registered Stockholders

If, on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, you are a “stockholder of record”, and we are sending these proxy materials directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to direct the voting of your shares by returning the enclosed proxy card to us. Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, please complete, date, and sign the enclosed proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner

If, on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm or at a bank or other nominee holder, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held “in street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or nominee who is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Meeting. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker on how to vote your shares and to attend the Meeting virtually. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares directly unless you receive a valid proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee holder. To obtain a valid proxy, you must make a special request of your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee holder. If you do not make this request, you can still vote by using the voting instruction card enclosed with this Proxy Statement.

How do I vote?

If you were a stockholder of record of the common stock on the Record Date, you may vote in any of the methods described below. Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on the applicable proposals. Each share of Class B Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to ten votes on the applicable proposals.

You may vote in one of three ways:

If your shares are registered in your name: Vote your shares over the Internet by accessing the proxy online voting website at: www.proxyvote.com and following the on-screen instructions. You will need the control numbers that appear on your proxy card when you access the web page.

If your shares are held in the name of a broker, bank, or other nominee: Vote your shares over the Internet by following the voting instructions that you receive from such broker, bank, or other nominee.

If your shares are registered in your name: Vote your shares over the telephone by accessing the telephone voting system toll-free at 1-800-690-6903 in the United States and from foreign countries using any touch-tone telephone and following the telephone voting instructions. The telephone instructions will lead you through the voting process. You will need the Company number, account and control numbers that appear on your proxy card.

Vote by signing and dating the proxy card(s) and returning the card(s) in the prepaid envelope.

If we receive your proxy card prior to this Meeting and if you mark your voting instructions on the proxy card, your shares will be voted:

If you return a signed card, but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted:

According to the best judgment of Mr. Davy if a proposal comes up for a vote at the Meeting (or at any adjournment or postponement thereof) that is not on the proxy card.

If I plan on attending the Meeting, should I return my proxy card?

Yes. Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, after carefully reading and considering the information contained in this Proxy Statement, please complete, and sign your proxy card. Then return the proxy card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided herewith as soon as possible, but prior to 11:59 p.m. ET on [  ], 2026, so your shares may be represented at the Meeting. There will not be any voting at the Meeting.

May I change my mind after I return my proxy?

Yes. You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at this Meeting. You may do this by:

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

You may have multiple accounts at the transfer agent and/or with brokerage firms. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

What happens if I do not indicate how to vote my proxy?

Signed and dated proxies received by the Company without an indication of how the stockholder desires to vote on a proposal will be voted in favor of each proposal presented to the stockholders.

Will my shares be voted if I do not sign and return my proxy card?

If you do not sign and return your proxy card, your shares will not be voted.

Is my vote kept confidential?

Proxies, ballots and voting tabulations identifying stockholders are kept confidential and will not be disclosed, except as may be necessary to meet legal requirements.

Where do I find the voting results of this Meeting?

We will announce voting results at this Meeting and also file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) reporting the voting results.

Where Can I Get a Copy of the Proxy Materials?

Copies of the proxy card, the Notice and this Proxy Statement are available on our Company’s website at https://ir.banzai.io/. The contents of that website are not a part of this Proxy Statement. If you want to receive a paper or email copy you must request one. There is no charge to you for requesting a copy.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — ASSET PURCHASE ISSUANCE PROPOSAL

Purpose

The purpose of the Asset Purchase Issuance Proposal is to authorize the potential issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock in connection with the ConnectAndSell asset purchase, to the extent stockholder approval is required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, including Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a).

Background

On July 2, 2026, the Company entered into the APA with ConnectAndSell and Banzai CS Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Acquisition Sub”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase (and to direct the transfer of title to Acquisition Sub) substantially all of the assets of ConnectAndSell (the “Purchased Assets”), and Acquisition Sub agreed to assume certain specified liabilities of ConnectAndSell (the “Assumed Liabilities”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the APA (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) occurred on July 2, 2026 (the “Closing Date”). ConnectAndSell’s business focuses on Software-as-a-Service and AI for sales enablement.

The aggregate consideration for the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price”) consists of (i) cash and shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu of Shares) with an aggregate value of $8,450,000 (the “Closing Consideration”), payable at the Closing, comprised of (a) $750,000, payable in cash, (b) $5,900,000, payable in Shares (which equal 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following such issuance), of which shares with an aggregate value of $1,340,000 (based on the Closing VWAP) are to be withheld as security for ConnectAndSell’s indemnification obligations under the APA (the “Holdback Shares”), and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, and (c) a promissory note in the amount of $1,800,000 (the “Employee Indebtedness Note”) bearing interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments in cash over the twelve (12)-month period following the Closing, provided that if the Company and ConnectAndSell mutually agree, any such quarterly payment may be made in freely trading shares of Common Stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, (ii) a first deferred cash payment in the amount of $1,500,000, payable within ten (10) days of the Closing, (iii) a second deferred cash payment in the amount of $3,250,000, payable within three (3) Business Days following the earlier of (x) the date that the SEC declares effective the registration statement covering the securities issued in the Private Placement and (y) December 31, 2026, and (iv) earn-out payments contingent upon the achievement of certain revenue targets following the Closing (the “Earn-Out Consideration”).

All shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the APA, including any Earn-Out Consideration, are valued based on the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of such shares over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the applicable issuance date. In addition, if the VWAP of the shares of Common Stock over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the earlier of (x) the 120th day following the Closing and (y) the effective date of the resale registration statement on Form S-3 is less than the Closing VWAP, the Company will issue to ConnectAndSell additional shares of Common Stock to compensate for such decrease, provided that in no event shall the VWAP used for purposes of this adjustment be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Closing VWAP.

The Earn-Out Consideration is based upon targets occurring during the twelve (12)-month period following the Closing as follows: (i) $2,000,000 (the “Base Earn-Out Consideration”), payable in cash or, at the Company’s option, in shares of Common Stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, if the average monthly recurring revenue of the Business for the twelve (12) calendar months following the Closing is greater than or equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the monthly recurring revenue of the Business as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the Closing; and (ii) additional performance earn-out consideration, payable in shares of Common Stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, equal to (A) three (3) times the amount by which the Year 1 MRR exceeds the Closing MRR, if such excess is less than or equal to $333,333, or (B) six (6) times such excess, if such excess is greater than $333,333.

Ownership Limitations and Pre-Funded Warrants

Under the APA, the Company may not issue shares of Common Stock to ConnectAndSell to the extent that, after giving effect to such issuance, ConnectAndSell, together with any affiliates thereof, would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Closing (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). In addition, the Company may not issue shares of Common Stock to ConnectAndSell to the extent that the aggregate number of shares so issued would exceed 19.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock and shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (the “Nasdaq Ownership Limitation,” together with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the “Ownership Limitations”). To the extent either Ownership Limitation prevents the Company from issuing consideration comprised exclusively of shares of Common Stock, the Company will instead issue (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued without exceeding either Ownership Limitation, and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants exercisable for the remaining shares of Common Stock. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share.

At the Closing, the Company issued 294,917 Shares (which equal 9.99% of the number of Shares outstanding immediately following such issuance) and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 1,685,175 Shares.

Following the Closing, and until such time as the approval of the Company’s stockholders contemplated by this Proposal No. 1 (the “Stockholders’ Approval”) is obtained, ConnectAndSell, as a holder of shares of Common Stock, is not entitled to vote on certain matters, including the approval of any amendment to the APA or the Pre-Funded Warrants to delete any ownership limitation or to approve matters that would result in ConnectAndSell’s collective beneficial ownership exceeding 19.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock and shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing.

We are seeking approval of the Asset Purchase Issuance Proposal because, pursuant to the APA and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrants may not be fully exercised and additional shares of Common Stock may not be issued in connection with the Earn-Out Consideration, VWAP adjustment and other payments under the APA until we receive the approval of our stockholders to remove the Nasdaq Ownership Limitation.

Effect of Issuance of Securities

The potential issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and in connection with the Earn-Out Consideration, VWAP adjustment and other payments under the APA would result in an increase in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, and our stockholders would incur dilution of their percentage ownership to the extent that ConnectAndSell exercises its Pre-Funded Warrants and receives additional shares. The dilutive effect may be material to our current stockholders.

Proposal to Approve the Share Issuance

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) requires us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company if the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of the stock or securities, or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding immediately prior to the issuance. In the case of the Transaction, the 20% threshold is determined based on the total shares of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date.

Immediately prior to the Closing Date, we had 2,656,723 shares of Class A Common Stock and 33,856 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding. At the Closing, the Company issued 294,917 Shares and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 1,685,175 Shares. The issuance of 294,917 shares and the potential issuance of 1,685,175 shares of our Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, together with any additional shares issuable in connection with the Earn-Out Consideration, the VWAP adjustment and any other payments under the APA, would exceed 20% of the total shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding prior to giving effect to the Transaction. Therefore, we are seeking stockholder approval under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) for the potential issuance by us of our Class A Common Stock in excess of 20% of the total shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date.

Potential Consequences if the Asset Purchase Issuance Proposal is Not Approved

If our stockholders do not approve this proposal, we will not be able to issue shares of Class A Common Stock in excess of the Nasdaq Ownership Limitation to ConnectAndSell in connection with the Transaction. As a result, we may be unable to issue sufficient shares upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants or in connection with the Earn-Out Consideration and other payments under the APA. Pursuant to the APA, if the Stockholders’ Approval is not obtained within 120 days following the Closing (or such longer period as mutually agreed by the parties in writing), the Company will be required to pay ConnectAndSell in cash an amount equal to the Closing Non-Cash Consideration within 30 days thereafter, upon which ConnectAndSell will surrender to the Company for cancellation the Pre-Funded Warrants (or portions thereof) corresponding to such cash payment.

Voting and Support Agreement

On or prior to the date of the APA, Joseph P. Davy, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and chairman of the Board, executed and delivered a Voting and Support Agreement pursuant to which Mr. Davy agreed to vote all shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by him as of the date of the APA, together with any shares of the Company’s capital stock acquired thereafter, in favor of the issuance of shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants, as contemplated by the APA to meet any Nasdaq listing standards. As of the Record Date, Mr. Davy beneficially owned [  ] shares of Class A Common Stock and [33,856] shares of Class B Common Stock, representing approximately [  ]% of the total voting power of the Company’s outstanding voting securities.

Interests of Certain Persons

When you consider our Board’s recommendation to vote in favor of this proposal, you should be aware that our directors and executive officers and existing stockholders may have interests that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of other of our stockholders.

Further Information

The full terms of the APA and the Pre-Funded Warrants are included in the form of such documents, which were filed as Exhibits 2.1 and 4.1, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on July 7, 2026, and are incorporated herein by reference. The discussion herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the filed documents.

Vote Required

The Asset Purchase Issuance Proposal will be approved if a majority of the voting power of the stock present by remote communication or represented by proxy at the Meeting, and entitled to vote, other than ConnectAndSell, vote “FOR” the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote all of your shares “FOR” the Asset Purchase Issuance Proposal as described in this Proposal No. 1.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — CORPORATE NAME CHANGE

Overview

The Board of Directors is asking stockholders to approve an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Name Change Amendment”) to change the Company’s legal name from “Banzai International, Inc.” to “Parabolic Technologies, Inc.” (the “Name Change”). The proposed Name Change Amendment would change only the Company’s legal name and would not affect any other provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the rights of stockholders.

Reasons for the Name Change

The Board believes that the legal entity name change to “Parabolic Technologies, Inc.” is more consistent with the Company’s newly announced brand name “Parabolic.” The Board considered the following factors in recommending the Name Change:

● Business Clarity. The current name, “Banzai International, Inc.,” is associated with the Company’s historical focus and product offerings that were known to investors, partners, and the broader market under the Banzai brand. The new “Parabolic” brand and associated name “Parabolic Technologies, Inc.” is intended to signal the change to investors, partners and the broader market about where the Company believes the future of software is headed.

● Strategic Alignment. The Board believes the new name better positions the Company in the marketplace and supports investor recognition consistent with the Company’s belief that the future of enterprise software will be agentic applications that are net-beneficiaries of AI transformation, and the Company’s plans to focus on building, acquiring, and investing in those and related businesses.

● Brand Scope. “Parabolic Technologies, Inc.” encompasses the full breadth of the Company’s business while remaining concise and accessible to a broad investor audience.

● Creation of a Unified Corporate Identity. The proposed name is intended to establish a corporate identity that is consistent with the Company’s current technology platform, strategic objectives, and long-term vision.

Effect of the Name Change

If approved by stockholders, the Name Change will become effective upon the filing of the Name Change Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which the Company expects to file promptly following stockholder approval. The Name Change will have no effect on the rights of existing stockholders, the par value or number of authorized shares of Common Stock, or any other provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. Outstanding stock certificates and book-entry positions will continue to be valid and need not be exchanged. The Company has already changed its Nasdaq ticker symbol to “PARA” in anticipation of the Name Change. A copy of the form of Name Change Amendment is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex C.

Concurrently with or promptly following the effectiveness of the Name Change, the Company anticipates obtaining a new CUSIP number for the Common Stock.

Right to Abandon

The Board may abandon the proposed Name Change at any time prior to the filing of the Name Change Amendment if the Board determines that proceeding with the Name Change is no longer advisable or in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Any determination as to the appropriateness of the Name Change will be made solely by the Board and will depend upon numerous factors, including the Company’s business focus, the Company’s future strategy, general name recognition and brand awareness associated with the Company’s current name, and such other factors as the Board may deem relevant.

Vote Required

Approval of the Name Change Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the stock present by remote communication or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote all of your shares “FOR” the Corporate Name Change described in this Proposal No. 2.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 — EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Description of Existing Plan Terms

The 2023 Plan currently provides for an aggregate share reserve of 96,724 shares of Common Stock. In addition, the 2023 Plan contains an annual “evergreen” provision that generally increases the share reserve on January 1 of each applicable year beginning with the first January 1 following the effective date of the 2023 Plan and ending with the last January 1 during the initial ten-year term of the 2023 Plan by the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Fully Diluted Common Stock outstanding (as that term is defined by the 2023 Plan) on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year, and (B) such lesser number of shares as determined by the Board. The 2023 Plan also currently provides that the aggregate maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options is 1,073 shares.

On August [  ], 2026, our Board approved the following amendments to the 2023 Plan:

(i) the addition of 750,000 shares of Common Stock to the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder, increasing the total from 96,724 shares to 846,724 shares;

(ii) an increase in the 2023 Plan’s “evergreen” provision to increase the size of the 2023 Plan each year from five percent (5%) of shares outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year to seven point five percent (7.5%), beginning with the January 1, 2027 annual increase; and

(iii) the removal of the cap on the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options under the 2023 Plan.

Our Board believes that it is important to provide eligible employees and consultants with the opportunity to acquire an ownership interest in the Company and thereby provide such individuals with an additional incentive that is aligned with stockholders’ interests to contribute to our long-term success. Our Board believes the number of shares currently reserved for future issuance under the 2023 Plan is not adequate to create appropriate incentives for both our current employees and for us to hire additional employees or retain consultants as we grow. Moreover, our Board believes that increasing the “evergreen” provision in the 2023 Plan will afford us reasonable increases in the size of the 2023 Plan as our company and need to provide equity incentives to employees and consultants grows. Finally, the Board believes that removing the cap on the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of Incentive Stock Options will provide the Company with greater flexibility in structuring equity awards to attract and retain key talent.

The form of the 2023 Plan as amended to reflect the amendments for which we are seeking approval shall be attached to the Definitive Proxy Statement as [Annex D].

Except for the specific amendments described above for which stockholder approval is being sought, the 2023 Plan otherwise remains in force and unmodified.

If the stockholders approve the EIP Proposal, the Company intends to file the full text of the 2023 Plan, as amended, as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K that discloses the results of the Meeting.

Vote Required

The amendments to our 2023 Plan require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the stock present by remote communication or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote all of your shares “FOR” the Equity Incentive Plan Amendment described in this Proposal No. 3.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 — AUTHORIZATION OF ONE OR MORE REVERSE STOCK SPLITS

The Board of Directors has adopted a resolution setting forth a proposed authorization for the Board, in its discretion, to effect one or more reverse stock splits of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, having an aggregate ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not greater than 1-for-1,000 (each, a “Reverse Stock Split”), with the exact number, timing and ratio of any such Reverse Stock Split(s) to be determined by the Board, and to approve one or more amendments to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (each, a “Certificate of Amendment”) to effect such Reverse Stock Split(s), at any time prior to the second anniversary of this Meeting. A copy of the form of Certificate of Amendment is set forth in Annex B annexed to this proxy statement. The Board has declared such authorization advisable and is recommending that our stockholders approve this proposal. If approved by our stockholders, this proposal would permit, but not require, the Board to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits within two years following stockholder approval. The Board would have the authority to determine the exact ratios and timing of any such Reverse Stock Splits and would not be required to seek further stockholder approval. The Board also reserves the right, notwithstanding stockholder approval of this proposal and without further action by the stockholders, to abandon any proposed Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Certificate of Amendment, the Board determines that such action is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. If the Board does not implement any Reverse Stock Split prior to the second anniversary of this Meeting, the authority granted in this proposal will terminate.

As of the Record Date, there were [  ] shares of Class A Common Stock and [  ] shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding. The number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock following any Reverse Stock Split will depend on the ratio selected by the Board. The Board’s decision as to whether and when to effect any Reverse Stock Split will be based on a number of factors, including market conditions, existing and expected trading prices for our Class A Common Stock, and the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Purpose of the Reverse Stock Split

The Board’s primary objective in seeking this authorization is to maintain flexibility to increase the per-share trading price of our Class A Common Stock if and when the Board determines it is necessary or advisable. If approved by our stockholders, this proposal would permit, but not require, the Board to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits within two years following stockholder approval of this proposal. In determining whether and when to effect a Reverse Stock Split, and the applicable ratio, the Board may consider such factors as it deems relevant, including the market price of the Company’s Common Stock, the Company’s capital structure, Nasdaq listing requirements, financing opportunities, general market conditions and other factors that the Board believes are relevant to the Company’s business and stockholders.

If the stockholders approve this proposal and the Board determines to implement a Reverse Stock Split, we will file a Certificate of Amendment to amend the existing provision of our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect such Reverse Stock Split. The text of the form of proposed amendment is set forth in the Certificate of Amendment annexed to this proxy statement as Annex B. The Board may effect additional Reverse Stock Splits within the two-year authorization period by filing additional Certificates of Amendment, provided the aggregate ratio of all such Reverse Stock Splits does not exceed the maximum ratio approved by stockholders.

Each Reverse Stock Split will be effected simultaneously for all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and the Reverse Stock Split ratio will be the same for all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each Reverse Stock Split will affect all Common Stock stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interests in our company, except those stockholders who would have otherwise received fractional shares will receive the number of shares rounded up to the nearest whole number determined in the manner set forth below under the heading “Fractional Shares.” After each Reverse Stock Split, each share of Common Stock will have the same voting rights and rights to dividends and distributions and will be identical in all other respects to the Common Stock now authorized. No Reverse Stock Split will affect us continuing to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. No Reverse Stock Split is intended to be, and will not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” covered by Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act.

A Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning “odd-lots” of less than 100 shares of the Common Stock. Brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd-lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions in “round-lots” of even multiples of 100 shares. In addition, we will not issue fractional shares in connection with any Reverse Stock Split, and stockholders who would have otherwise been entitled to receive such fractional shares will receive the number of shares determined in the manner set forth below under the heading “Fractional Shares.”

Following the effectiveness of any Reverse Stock Split, if approved by the stockholders and implemented by the Company, current stockholders will hold fewer shares of Common Stock.

If the Board decides to implement a Reverse Stock Split, the Company will communicate to the public, prior to the effective time of such Reverse Stock Split, additional details regarding the Reverse Stock Split, including the applicable ratio. By voting in favor of this proposal, you are also expressly authorizing the Board to determine not to proceed with, and to defer or to abandon, any Reverse Stock Split, in the Board of Directors’ sole discretion, and to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits at any time within two years of the date of the Meeting without seeking further stockholder approval. In determining whether to implement a Reverse Stock Split following receipt of stockholder approval, the Board may consider, among other things, various factors, such as:

● our ability to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market; 

● the historical trading price and trading volume of our Class A Common Stock;

● the then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our Class A Common Stock and the expected impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our Class A Common Stock in the short and long term.

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split(s)

To increase the per share price of our Class A Common Stock. As discussed above, the primary objective for seeking authorization to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits would be to increase the per share price of our Class A Common Stock and maintain compliance with the Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Our Board believes that, should the appropriate circumstances arise, effecting a Reverse Stock Split could, among other things, help us to appeal to a broader range of investors, generate greater investor interest in the Company, and improve the perception of our Class A Common Stock as an investment security. The two-year authorization period provides the Board with the flexibility to respond to changing market conditions and implement one or more Reverse Stock Splits at the times and ratios that the Board determines to be most advantageous to the Company and its stockholders.

To potentially improve the liquidity of our Class A Common Stock. A Reverse Stock Split could allow a broader range of institutions to invest in our Class A Common Stock (namely, funds that are prohibited from buying stocks whose price is below certain thresholds), potentially increasing trading volume and liquidity of our Class A Common Stock and potentially decreasing the volatility of our Class A Common Stock if institutions become long-term holders of our Class A Common Stock. A Reverse Stock Split could help increase analyst and broker interest in our Class A Common Stock as their policies can discourage them from following or recommending companies with low stock prices. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Some of those policies and practices may make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, a low average price per share of Class A Common Stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were higher. Some investors, however, may view a Reverse Stock Split negatively since it reduces the number of shares of Class A Common Stock available in the public market.

Certain Risks Associated with the Reverse Stock Split(s)

The Reverse Stock Split(s) may not increase the price of our Class A Common Stock.

Although the Board expects that a Reverse Stock Split will result in an increase in the price of our Class A Common Stock, the effect of any Reverse Stock Split cannot be predicted with certainty. Other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business, may adversely affect the stock price. As a result, there can be no assurance that any Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in any of the intended benefits described above, that the stock price will increase as a result of or following such Reverse Stock Split (or will increase in the same proportion as the applicable reverse stock split ratio) or that the stock price will not decrease in the future.

Moreover, a decline in the market price of our Class A Common Stock after a Reverse Stock Split may result in a greater percentage decline than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Stock Split. The market price of our Class A Common Stock is based on our performance and other factors, which are unrelated to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

If a Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the resulting per-share price may not attract institutional investors, investment funds or brokers and may not satisfy the investing guidelines of these investors or brokers, and consequently, the trading liquidity of our Class A Common Stock may not improve.

While we believe that a higher share price may help generate investor and broker interest in the Common Stock, a Reverse Stock Split may not result in a share price that will attract institutional investors or investment funds or satisfy the investing guidelines of institutional investors, investment funds or brokers. For example, some investors, analysts and other stock market participants have a negative perception of reverse stock splits due to: (1) the fact that the share price of some companies that have effected reverse stock splits has subsequently declined in share price and corresponding market capitalization, (2) the potential that the reduction in shares outstanding could adversely impact the liquidity of our Common Stock; and (3) the costs associated with implementing a reverse stock split.

A Reverse Stock Split may leave certain stockholders with “odd lots.”

A Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” of fewer than 100 shares. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.

A Reverse Stock Split May Decrease the Liquidity of Class A Common Stock.

The Board believes that a Reverse Stock Split may result in an increase in the market price of our Class A Common Stock, which could lead to increased interest in our Class A Common Stock and possibly promote greater liquidity for our stockholders. However, a Reverse Stock Split will also reduce the total number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock), which may lead to reduced trading and a smaller number of market makers for our Class A Common Stock.

A Reverse Stock Split May Lead to a Decrease in the Overall Market Capitalization of the Company.

A Reverse Stock Split may be viewed negatively by the market and, consequently, could lead to a decrease in our overall market capitalization. If the per share market price of our Class A Common Stock does not increase in proportion to the applicable Reverse Stock Split ratio, then our value, as measured by our market capitalization, will be reduced.

Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interest, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in this proposed amendment, except to the extent of their ownership in shares of our Common Stock and securities convertible or exercisable for Common Stock.

Procedures for Effecting Reverse Stock Split(s)

If our stockholders approve this proposal, the Board will have discretion to determine whether and when to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits on or prior to [  ], 2028, the second anniversary of this Meeting. If implemented by the Board, each Reverse Stock Split would become effective upon filing the applicable Certificate of Amendment with Delaware’s Secretary of State. The actual timing of the effective date of each Reverse Stock Split will be determined by the Board at such time as the Board believes it to be most advantageous to us and our stockholders.

Principal Effects of Reverse Stock Split(s)

On the effective date of a Reverse Stock Split, each [  ] shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split on the effective date (the “Old Shares”) will automatically and without any action on the part of the stockholders be converted into one share of our Common Stock (the “New Shares”). The applicable ratio for each Reverse Stock Split will be determined by the Board at the time of implementation.

The following table contains approximate number of issued and outstanding shares of Banzai’s common stock immediately following a reverse stock split at the low, mid and high range of the potential reverse stock split atios, without giving effect to any adjustments for fractional shares.

Each Reverse Stock Split will be effected simultaneously for all of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and the exchange ratio will be the same for all of our outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each Reverse Stock Split will affect all of our Common Stock stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage of ownership interests in the Company, except to the extent that such Reverse Stock Split results in any of our stockholders owning a fractional share. Common Stock issued pursuant to any Reverse Stock Split will remain fully paid and non-assessable.

Fractional Shares. No scrip or fractional shares will be issued in connection with any Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of Old Shares not evenly divisible by the applicable reverse stock split ratio, will be entitled to a number of shares of New Shares rounded up to the nearest whole number. The ownership of a fractional interest will not give the stockholder any voting, dividend, or other rights except to have his or her fractional interest rounded up to the nearest whole number when the New Shares are issued.

Authorized Shares. The Company is presently authorized under its Certificate of Incorporation to issue 350,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 250,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) 25,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, and (iii) 75,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”). No Reverse Stock Split will have any effect on the Company’s authorized capital or number of shares that will be available for issuance after a Reverse Stock Split. The issuance in the future of additional shares of our Class A Common Stock may have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share, as well as the stock ownership and voting rights of the currently outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Authorized but unissued shares will be available for issuance, and we may issue such shares in future financings or otherwise. If we issue additional shares, the ownership interest of holders of our Common Stock would be diluted. Also, the issued shares may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of our Common Stock.

Outstanding Derivative Securities. Each Reverse Stock Split will require that proportionate adjustments be made to the conversion rate, the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise, vesting or conversion of outstanding derivative securities issued by us, in accordance with the applicable split ratio (all figures below are as of the Record Date and are on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis). The number of shares set forth below includes all shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, the conversion or exercise of convertible securities, including those related to restricted stock units or other equity awards that are scheduled to vest within the next 60 days, including:

The adjustments to the above securities, as required by each Reverse Stock Split and in accordance with the applicable split ratio, would result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid under such securities upon exercise, and approximately the same value of shares of Common Stock being delivered upon such exercise or conversion, immediately following each Reverse Stock Split as was the case immediately preceding such Reverse Stock Split.

Accounting Matters. No Reverse Stock Split will affect the par value of our Common Stock. As a result, on the effective date of each Reverse Stock Split, the stated capital on our balance sheet attributable to our Common Stock will be reduced in proportion to the applicable Reverse Stock Split ratio and the additional paid-in capital account shall be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per share net income or loss and net book value of our Common Stock will also be increased because there will be fewer shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

Potential Anti-Takeover Effect. Although the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect (for example, by permitting issuances that would dilute the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of our Board or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for the combination of the Company with another company), the Reverse Stock Split authorization was not proposed in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate our shares of Common Stock or obtain control of us, nor is it part of a plan by management to recommend a series of similar actions having an anti-takeover effect to our Board of Directors and stockholders. Notwithstanding any decrease in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock following the implementation of one or more Reverse Stock Splits, the Board does not intend for any such transaction to be the first step in a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act, and the implementation of any Reverse Stock Split will not cause the Company to go private. Other than this proposal, our Board of Directors does not currently contemplate recommending the adoption of any other corporate action that could be construed to affect the ability of third parties to take over or change control of the Company.

The number of shares held by each individual stockholder will be reduced if a Reverse Stock Split is implemented. This will increase the number of stockholders who hold less than a “round lot,” or 100 shares. Typically, the transaction costs to stockholders selling “odd lots” are higher on a per share basis. Consequently, a Reverse Stock Split could increase the transaction costs to existing stockholders in the event they wish to sell all or a portion of their shares.

The Company is subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The proposed Reverse Stock Split(s) will not affect the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act. If a Reverse Stock Split is implemented, our Class A Common Stock will continue to be reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “PARA,” subject to compliance with applicable listing standards. We will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Book Entry Shares. If a Reverse Stock Split is effected, stockholders, either as direct or beneficial owners, will have their holdings electronically adjusted by our transfer agent (and, for beneficial owners, by their brokers or banks that hold in “street name” for their benefit, as the case may be) to give effect to such Reverse Stock Split. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to effect the Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding Common Stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians, or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing the Reverse Stock Split and making payment for fractional shares. If a stockholder holds shares of Common Stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and has any questions in this regard, stockholders are encouraged to contact their bank, broker, custodian or other nominee. We do not issue physical certificates to stockholders.

No Appraisal Rights. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our stockholders are not entitled to dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights with respect to any Reverse Stock Split described in the Reverse Split Proposal, and we will not independently provide our stockholders with any such rights.

Procedure for Effecting a Reverse Stock Split

Each Reverse Stock Split will be accomplished by amending the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation by filing a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to include a paragraph in substantially the same form as follows:

“As of [  ], (the “Effective Time”), each [  ] shares of Class A Common Stock and each [  ] shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock or one (1) share of Class B Common Stock, respectively (the “Reverse Stock Split”). No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. All shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (including fractions thereof) are issuable upon the Reverse Stock Split to a given holder shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, the Corporation shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, round up to the nearest whole number of shares in order to bring the number of shares held by such holder up to the next whole number of shares. No certificates representing fractional shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Each book entry that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (“Old Certificates”) shall thereafter represent the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively into which the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively represented by the Old Certificate shall have been combined, subject to the elimination of fractional share interests as described above.”

A copy of the form of Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company is attached hereto as Annex B.

Each Reverse Stock Split will become effective at such future date as determined by the Board of Directors, as evidenced by the filing of the applicable Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), but in no event later than [  ], 2028. Beginning at the Effective Time, each book entry representing Old Shares will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of New Shares.

As soon as practicable after each Effective Time, stockholders will be notified that a Reverse Stock Split has been effected. Since all shares of Common Stock are held in book entry, once the Reverse Stock Split is effective, our transfer agent will process the exchange automatically and book entry statements will be mailed to Common Stock stockholders showing the new amount of shares of Common Stock they own.

After the effective date of each Reverse Stock Split, the CUSIP number for our Common Stock may change.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s)

The following is a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of a Reverse Stock Split that are applicable to U.S. holders (as defined below) of the Company’s Common Stock, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. Because the Board has not determined whether it will implement a Reverse Stock Split, nor selected any applicable ratio, the discussion below is necessarily general in nature. This summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), existing treasury regulations, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), all in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or change. Any such change or differing interpretation, which may be retroactive, could alter the tax consequences to the Company’s stockholders as described in this summary.

This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to the Company’s stockholder. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to the Company’s stockholders that are subject to particular U.S. or non-U.S. tax rules, including, without limitation to the Company’s stockholders that are:

● persons who do not hold their Common Stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code;

● brokers, dealers or traders in securities; banks; insurance companies; other financial institutions; mutual funds;

● real estate investment trusts; regulated investment companies; tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations;

● pass-through entities such as partnerships, S corporations, disregarded entities for federal income tax purposes and limited liability companies (and investors therein);

● persons who are not U.S. holders (as defined below);

● stockholders who are subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Code;

● persons who hold their shares as part of a hedge, wash sale, synthetic security, conversion transaction, or other integrated transaction;

● persons that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar; traders in securities who elect to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting;

● persons who hold shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may constitute “qualified small business stock” under Section 1202 of the Code or as “Section 1244 stock” for purposes of Section 1244 of the Code;

● persons who elect to apply the provisions of Section 1400Z-2 to any gains realized in the Reverse Split;

● persons who acquired their shares of the Company’s Common Stock in a transaction subject to the gain rollover provisions of Section 1045 of the Code;

● persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the Company’s Common Stock being taken into account in an “applicable financial statement” (as defined in the Code);

● persons deemed to sell the Company’s Common Stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;

● persons who acquired their shares of stock pursuant to the exercise of options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan or through the exercise of a warrant or conversion rights under convertible instruments; and

● certain expatriates or former citizens or long-term residents of the United States.

The Company’s stockholders subject to particular U.S. or non-U.S. tax rules that are described in this paragraph are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the consequences to them of the Reverse Split.

If an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds the Company’s Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. If you are a partnership or a partner of a partnership holding the Company’s capital stock or any other person not addressed by this discussion, you should consult your tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Reverse Split.

In addition, the following discussion does not address: (a) the tax consequences of transactions effectuated before, after or at the same time as the Reverse Split, whether or not they are in connection with the Reverse Split; (b) any U.S. federal non-income tax consequences of the Reverse Split, including estate, gift or other tax consequences; (c) any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences of the Reverse Split; or (d) the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. No ruling from the IRS or opinion of counsel, has been or will be requested in connection with the Reverse Split. The Company’s stockholders should be aware that the IRS could adopt a position which could be sustained by a court contrary to that set forth in this discussion.

Definition of “U.S. Holder”

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of the Company’s Common Stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

● an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

● a corporation or any other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

● a trust if either (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) are authorized or have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust, or (ii) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996 and has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or

● an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source.

Tax Consequences of a Reverse Stock Split

A Reverse Stock Split should constitute a “recapitalization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. As a result, a U.S. holder generally should not recognize gain or loss upon a Reverse Stock Split, except with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of the Company’s Common Stock (which fractional share will be treated as received and then exchanged for such cash). A U.S. holder’s aggregate tax basis in the shares of the Company’s Common Stock received pursuant to a Reverse Stock Split should equal the aggregate tax basis of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock surrendered (excluding any portion of such basis that is allocated to any fractional share of the Company’s Common Stock), and such U.S. holder’s holding period in the shares of the Company’s Common Stock received should include the holding period in the shares of the Company’s Common Stock surrendered. Treasury Regulations provide detailed rules for allocating the tax basis and holding period of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock surrendered to the shares of the Company’s Common Stock received in a recapitalization pursuant to a Reverse Stock Split. U.S. holders of shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of the tax basis and holding period of such shares.

A U.S. holder that receives cash in lieu of a fractional share of the Common Stock pursuant to the Reverse Split should recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in the shares of the Common Stock surrendered that is allocated to such fractional share of the Common Stock. Any such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if, as of the effective time of the Reverse Split, the U.S. holder’s holding period for such fractional share exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains of certain non-corporate taxpayers, including individuals, are generally taxed at preferential rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of cash made in lieu of a fractional share of the Company’s Common Stock may, under certain circumstances, be subject to information reporting and backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. holder who (i) furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies the holder is not subject to backup withholding on IRS Form W-9 or a substantially similar form, or (ii) certifies the holder is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. If a U.S. holder does not provide a correct taxpayer identification number on IRS Form W-9 or other proper certification, the stockholder may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or allowed as a credit against the federal income tax liability of a U.S. holder of the Company’s capital stock, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. The Company’s stockholders should consult their tax advisors regarding their qualification for an exemption from backup withholding, the procedures for obtaining such an exemption, and in the event backup withholding is applied, to determine if any tax credit, tax refund or other tax benefit may be obtained.

Because of the complexity of the tax laws and because the tax consequences to the Company or to any particular stockholder may be affected by matters not discussed herein, stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the specific tax consequences to them in connection with the Reverse Split, including tax reporting requirements, the applicability and effect of foreign, U.S. federal, state and local and other applicable tax laws and the effect of any proposed changes in the tax laws.

Vote Required

The proposal to authorize the Board to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits and to file one or more Certificates of Amendment regarding same requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the stock present by remote communication or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote all of your shares “FOR” the authorization of one or more Reverse Stock Splits as described in this Proposal No. 4.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 — ADJOURNMENT OF THE SPECIAL MEETING

Purpose of Adjournment Proposal

If the Meeting is convened and a quorum is present, but there are not sufficient votes to approve one or more of the proposals or if a quorum is not present for one or more of the proposals, our proxy holders may move to continue, adjourn or postpone the Meeting at that time in order to enable our Board to solicit additional proxies.

In this proposal, we are asking stockholders to authorize the holder of any proxy solicited by the Board to vote in favor of granting discretionary authority to the Board to adjourn the Meeting to another date, time or place for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies. If the stockholders approve this proposal, the Board could adjourn the Meeting and any adjourned session of the Meeting and use the additional time to solicit additional proxies, including the solicitation of proxies from stockholders who have previously voted.  

If, at the Meeting, the number of shares present or represented and voting to approve the presented proposals is not sufficient to approve Proposals 1, 2, 3 or 4 or if a quorum is not present for any of the proposals, the Board currently intends to move to adjourn the Meeting to enable the Board to solicit additional proxies for the approval of any such proposal(s) or to constitute a quorum.

Any adjournment may be with respect to one or more proposals, but not necessarily all proposals, to be voted or acted upon at the Meeting and any adjournment will not delay or otherwise affect the effectiveness and validity of a vote or other action taken at the Meeting prior to adjournment.

Our Board believes that, if the number of shares of our common stock voting in favor of any of the proposals at the Meeting is insufficient to approve such proposals, it is in the best interests of our stockholders to enable us, if we so choose and for a limited period of time, to continue to seek to obtain a sufficient number of additional votes in favor of such proposals. Any signed proxies received by us in which no voting instructions are provided on such matter will be voted in favor of an adjournment in these circumstances. If the Meeting is adjourned, the time and place of the adjourned Annual Meeting will be announced at the time the adjournment is taken.

If it is necessary to adjourn the Meeting, no notice of the adjourned meeting is required to be given to our stockholders, other than an announcement at the Meeting of the time and place to which the Meeting is adjourned, so long as the meeting is adjourned for 30 days or less and no new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, we may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of shares present by remote communication or represented by proxy at the meeting, though less than a quorum is required to approve the adjournment proposal.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” approval of the adjournment proposal.

OTHER MATTERS

Our Board knows of no other matter to be presented at the Meeting. If any additional matter should properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote such proxy in accordance with their judgment on any such matters.

Deadline for Submission of Stockholder Proposals for the Meeting

Such proposals must be received by the Company at its offices 435 Ericksen Ave NE, Suite 250, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110, Attention: Chief Executive Officer, no later than [  ], 2026.

If we are not notified of a stockholder proposal a reasonable time prior to the time we send our Proxy Statement for our Meeting, then our Board will have discretionary authority to vote on the stockholder proposal, even though the stockholder proposal is not discussed in the Proxy Statement. In order to curtail any controversy as to the date on which a stockholder proposal was received by us, it is suggested that stockholder proposals be submitted by certified mail, return receipt requested, and be addressed to Banzai International, Inc., 435 Ericksen Ave NE, Suite 250, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110 Attention: Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding, the foregoing shall not effectuate any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in our Proxy Statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act nor grant any stockholder a right to have any nominee included in our Proxy Statement.

Proxy Solicitation

The solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of the Board, and we will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited through the mail and through telephonic or telegraphic communications to, or by meetings with, stockholders or their representatives by our directors, officers and other employees who will receive no additional compensation therefor. We may also retain a proxy solicitation firm to assist us in obtaining proxies by mail, facsimile or email from record and beneficial holders of shares for the Meeting. If we retain a proxy solicitation firm, we expect to pay such firm reasonable and customary compensation for its services, including out-of-pocket expenses.

We request persons such as brokers, nominees and fiduciaries holding stock in their names for others or holding stock for others who have the right to give voting instructions, to forward proxy material to their principals and to request authority for the execution of the proxy. We will reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses.

Delivery of Proxy Materials to Households

Only one copy of this Proxy Statement is being delivered to multiple registered stockholders who share an address unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. A separate form of proxy and a separate notice of the Meeting are being included for each account at the shared address. Registered stockholders who share an address and would like to receive a separate copy of this Proxy Statement, or have questions regarding the householding process, may contact the Company’s transfer agent: Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, by calling (212) 509-4000, or by forwarding a written request addressed to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State St 30th floor, New York, NY 10004. Promptly upon request, a separate copy of this Proxy Statement will be sent. By contacting Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, registered stockholders sharing an address can also (i) notify the Company that the registered stockholders wish to receive separate annual reports or quarterly reports to stockholders, Proxy Statements and/or Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, in the future or (ii) request delivery of a single copy of annual reports or quarterly reports to stockholders and Proxy Statements in the future if registered stockholders at the shared address are receiving multiple copies.

Many brokers, brokerage firms, broker/dealers, banks, and other holders of record have also instituted “householding” (delivery of one copy of materials to multiple stockholders who share an address). If your family has one or more “street name” accounts under which you beneficially own shares of our Common Stock, you may have received householding information from your broker, brokerage firm, broker/dealer, bank, or other nominee in the past. Please contact the holder of record directly if you have questions, require additional copies of this Proxy Statement, or wish to revoke your decision to household and thereby receive multiple copies. You should also contact the holder of record if you wish to institute householding.
