To Be Held at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, December 1, 2026

This proxy statement is being furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors for use at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of AmpliTech Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and any postponements, adjournments or continuations thereof, which we refer to as the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 1, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, at the offices of AmpliTech Group, Inc., 155 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, which we refer to as the "Notice," containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our annual report is being first mailed on or about October 15, 2026, to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The information provided in the "question and answer" format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and references to our website address in this proxy statement are inactive textual references only.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 1, 2026. Our proxy statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 are available at https://ts.vstocktransfer.com/irhlogin/AMPLITECH.

What matters am I voting on?

You will be voting on:

	●	the election of five directors, each to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified;
	●	a proposal to ratify the appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026; and
	●	any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

Our Board of Directors recommends a vote:

	●	"FOR" the election of each director nominee;
	●	"FOR" the ratification of the appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

Who is entitled to vote?

Holders of our common stock as of the close of business on October 9, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting, may vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, there were 30,127,415 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. In deciding all matters at the Annual Meeting, each stockholder will be entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held by such stockholder on the record date. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors.

Registered Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares and the Notice was provided to you directly by us. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these registered stockholders as "stockholders of record."

Street Name Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are held on your behalf in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of shares that are held in "street name," and the Notice was forwarded to you by your broker or nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of our common stock in person at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker's procedures for obtaining a legal proxy. If you request a printed copy of our proxy materials by mail, your broker, bank or other nominee will provide a voting instruction form for you to use. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee as "street name stockholders."

What is a "broker non-vote"?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held by a broker, bank, trust or other nominee and you do not provide your broker, bank, trust or other nominee with voting instructions, your shares may constitute "broker non-votes". Broker non-votes occur on a matter when the broker, bank, trust or other nominee is not permitted under applicable stock exchange rules to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. These matters are referred to as "non-routine" matters.

How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?

	●	Proposal No. 1: The election of directors requires a plurality vote of the shares of our common stock present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. "Plurality" means that the nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast "for" are elected as directors. As a result, any shares not voted "for" a particular nominee (whether as a result of stockholder abstention or a broker non-vote) will not be counted in such nominee's favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote "for" or "withhold" on each of the nominees for election as a director.
	●	Proposal No. 2: The ratification of the appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present. Broker non-votes and abstentions are considered for purposes of establishing a quorum but not considered as votes cast for or against Proposal No. 2. Because this proposal is considered a "routine" matter under applicable stock exchange rules, we do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

What is the quorum?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present at the Annual Meeting for the Annual Meeting to be properly held under our amended and restated bylaws ("Bylaws") and Nevada law. The presence, in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy of one-third (1/3) of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at such meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, withhold votes and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, there are four ways to vote:

VOTE BY INTERNET

Use the Internet at http://www.vstocktransfer.com/proxy to transmit your voting instructions and for electronic delivery of information. Click on Proxy Voter Login and log-on using your control number. Vote by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 30, 2026. Have your Notice or proxy card (if you requested a paper proxy card) in hand when you access the website and follow the instructions to obtain your records and to create an electronic voting instruction form.

If you would like to reduce the costs incurred by our company in mailing proxy materials, you can consent to receiving all future proxy statements, proxy cards and annual reports electronically via e-mail or the Internet. To sign up for electronic delivery, please follow the instructions above to vote using the Internet and, when prompted, indicate that you agree to receive or access proxy materials electronically in future years.

VOTE BY FAX OR EMAIL

VOTE BY MAIL

If you requested a paper proxy card, please mark, sign and date your proxy card and return it to VStock Transfer, LLC, 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598 by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 30, 2026.

VOTE IN PERSON

The Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 1, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, at our offices located at 155 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788.

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, we recommend that you also vote by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend.

If you are a street name stockholder, you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee in order to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Street name stockholders should generally be able to vote by returning an instruction card, or by fax, email, or on the Internet. However, the availability of fax, email and Internet voting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee.

Can I change my vote?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy any time before the Annual Meeting by:

	●	entering a new vote by Internet;
	●	completing and mailing, faxing or emailing a later-dated proxy card;
	●	notifying the Secretary of AmpliTech Group, Inc., in writing, at 155 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788; or
	●	completing a written ballot at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change your vote.

What do I need to do to attend the Annual Meeting in person?

Space for the Annual Meeting is limited. Therefore, admission will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration will open at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time and the Annual Meeting will begin at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Each stockholder should be prepared to present:

	●	valid government photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport; and
	●	if you are a street name stockholder, proof of beneficial ownership as of October 9, 2026, the record date, such as your most recent account statement reflecting your stock ownership as of October 9, 2026, along with a copy of the voting instruction card provided by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee or similar evidence of ownership.

Use of cameras, recording devices, computers and other electronic devices, such as smart phones and tablets, will not be permitted at the Annual Meeting. Please allow ample time for check-in. Parking is limited.

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our Board of Directors. Fawad Maqbool, our Chief Executive Officer, and Louisa Sanfratello, our Chief Financial Officer, or any of them, have been designated as proxy holders by our Board of Directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors as described above. If any matters not described in this proxy statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned, the proxy holders can vote the shares on the new Annual Meeting date as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy instructions, as described above.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have elected to furnish our proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our annual report, primarily via the Internet. The Notice containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials is first being mailed on or about October 15, 2026 to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders may request to receive all future proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail by following the instructions contained in the Notice. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of our proxy materials on the Internet to help reduce the environmental impact of our annual meetings of stockholders.

How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting?

Our Board of Directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. All expenses associated with this solicitation will be borne by us. We will reimburse brokers or other nominees for reasonable expenses that they incur in sending our proxy materials to you if a broker, bank or other nominee holds shares of our common stock on your behalf. In addition, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

How may my brokerage firm or other intermediary vote my shares if I fail to provide timely directions?

Brokerage firms and other intermediaries holding shares of our common stock in street name for their customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker will have discretion to vote your shares on "routine" matters: Proposal No. 2 - to ratify the appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, as our independent registered public accounting firm. Proposal No. 1 - Election of Directors is considered a "non-routine" matter, and therefore in the absence of specific instructions from you, your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote your shares with respect to such proposal.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?

We have adopted a procedure called "householding," which the SEC has approved. Under this procedure, we deliver a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share the same address unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing costs, mailing costs and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these materials. To receive a separate copy, or, if a stockholder is receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, such stockholder may contact us at the following address:

AmpliTech Group, Inc.

Attention: Secretary

155 Plant Avenue

Hauppauge, New York, 11788

Tel: (631) 521-7831

Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank or other nominee to request information about householding.

What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year's annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?

Stockholder Proposals

In accordance with Article II, Section 2.15 of our Bylaws, a stockholder who wishes to present a proposal for consideration at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must deliver a notice of the matter the stockholder wishes to present to our principal executive offices at the address identified under "Mailing Instructions" below, not less than ninety (90) nor more than one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, any notice given by or on behalf of a stockholder pursuant to these provisions of our Bylaws (and not pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the SEC) must be received no earlier than August 3, 2027 and no later than September 2, 2027; provided, however, that in the event that the Annual Meeting is called for a date that is not within twenty-five (25) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the Annual Meeting was mailed or such public disclosure of the date of the Annual Meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting, or the public announcement of such an adjournment or postponement, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above.

The notice should include a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend our Bylaws, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, and any other information concerning such matter that must be disclosed in proxy solicitations pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as if the matter had been proposed, or intended to be proposed, by our Board of Directors. As to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, the notice should include the information required by Article II, Section 2.15 of our Bylaws.

Nomination of Director Candidates

You may propose director candidates for consideration by our nominating and corporate governance committee and Board of Directors. Any such recommendations should include the nominee's name, address, date of birth, principal occupation or employment (present and for the past five years) and qualifications for membership on our Board of Directors and should be directed to our Secretary at the address set forth below under "Mailing Instructions". For additional information regarding stockholder recommendations for director candidates, see the section of this proxy statement titled "Director Candidates".

In addition, our Bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. To nominate a director, a stockholder must provide the information required under Section 2.16 of our Bylaws. In addition, a stockholder must give timely notice to our Secretary in accordance with our Bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Secretary within the time periods described above under "Stockholder Proposals" for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement. In addition to satisfying the requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than October 2, 2027.

Rule 14a-8

Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Bylaws, the submission of stockholder proposals described above shall not apply to a proposal proposed to be made by a stockholder if the stockholder has notified us of his or her intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 and such stockholder's proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by us to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. Under Rule 14a-8, the deadline to submit the written proposal must be received at our principal executive offices on or before June 17, 2027. Proposals received after that date will not be included in the proxy materials we send out in connection with our 2027 Annual Meeting. However, if the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date of the prior year's annual meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials for the 2027 Annual Meeting.

In addition, there are additional requirements that a stockholder must satisfy to submit a proposal under Rule 14a-8. Therefore, we strongly encourage stockholders who wish to submit a proposal or nomination to seek independent counsel. We will not consider any proposal or nomination that is not timely or otherwise does not meet our Bylaws and Rule 14a-8 requirements. We reserve the right to reject, rule out of order, or take other appropriate action with respect to any proposal that does not comply with these and other applicable requirements.

Proposals submitted under Rule 14a-8 must comply with SEC regulations regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials.

Mailing Instructions

Stockholder written proposals should be addressed to Secretary, AmpliTech Group, Inc., 155 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788.

Availability of Bylaws

A copy of our Bylaws may be obtained by accessing our public filings on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. You may also contact our Secretary at our principal executive offices for a copy of the relevant Bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates.

Are there any interests of officers and directors in matters to be acted upon?

None of the Company's officers or directors has any interest in any of the matters to be acted upon, except to the extent that a director is named as a nominee for election to the Board of Directors.

Board Committees and Meetings

Committees

Effective January 20, 2021, we formed an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which is comprised of our three independent directors. Mr. Modi is the chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Mr. Lee is the chairman of the Audit Committee and Mr. Mazziota as the chairman of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Lee's finance and accounting experience qualifies him as the audit committee financial expert.

Independence

Our Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Modi, Mr. Lee and Mr. Mazziota is independent within the meaning of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. In making its independence determinations, the Board of Directors sought to identify and analyze all of the facts and circumstances related to any relationship between a director, his or her immediate family and our company and our affiliates and did not rely on categorical standards other than those contained in the Nasdaq rule referenced above. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Modi, Mr. Lee and Mr. Mazziota meet the additional test for independence for audit committee members imposed by SEC regulations and Section 5605(c)(2)(A) of the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules and that Mr. Modi, Mr. Lee and Mr. Mazziota meet the additional test for independence for compensation committee members imposed by Section 5605(d)(2)(A) of the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules.

Audit Committee

The primary purpose of our audit committee is to assist our Board of Directors in the oversight of the integrity of our accounting and financial reporting process, the audits of our consolidated financial statements, and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our audit committee met 6 times during the year ended December 31, 2025. The functions of our audit committee include, among other things:

	●	hiring an independent registered public accounting firm to conduct the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements and monitoring its independence and performance;
	●	reviewing and approving the planned scope of the annual audit and the results of the annual audit;

	●	pre-approving all audit services and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm;
	●	reviewing the significant accounting and reporting principles to understand their impact on our consolidated financial statements;
	●	reviewing our internal financial, operating and accounting controls with management, our independent registered public accounting firm and our internal audit provider;
	●	reviewing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm, as appropriate, our financial reports, earnings announcements and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
	●	periodically reviewing and discussing with management the effectiveness and adequacy of our system of internal controls;

	●	reviewing and evaluating, at least annually, our audit committee's charter.

With respect to reviewing and approving related-party transactions, our audit committee will review related-party transactions for potential conflicts of interest or other improprieties. Under SEC rules, related-party transactions are those transactions to which we are or may be a party in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any of our directors or executive officers or any other related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, excluding, among other things, compensation arrangements with respect to employment and Board of Directors membership. Our audit committee could approve a related-party transaction if it determines that the transaction is in our best interests. Our directors are required to disclose to this committee or the full Board of Directors any potential conflict of interest, or personal interest in a transaction that our Board of Directors is considering. Our executive officers are required to disclose any related-party transaction to the audit committee. We also poll our directors on an annual basis with respect to related-party transactions and their service as an officer or director of other entities. Any director involved in a related-party transaction that is being reviewed or approved must recuse himself or herself from participating in any related deliberation or decision. Whenever possible, the transaction should be approved in advance and if not approved in advance, must be submitted for ratification as promptly as practical.

The financial literacy requirements of the SEC require that each member of our audit committee be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements. In addition, at least one member of our audit committee must qualify as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act and have financial sophistication in accordance with the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Lee qualifies as an audit committee financial expert.

Both our independent registered public accounting firm and management periodically meet privately with our audit committee.

Meetings

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our Board of Directors held 19 meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings), and each director attended 100% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board of Directors held during the period for which he or she has been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board of Directors on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served.

The independent directors meet in executive sessions without management present. The independent directors met 4 times in such sessions during fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our Board of Directors at annual meetings of stockholders, we strongly encourage our directors to attend. All of our directors attended our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Board of Directors Diversity

Our Board of Directors is committed to fostering a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives so that our Board of Directors positions our company for the future. The members of our Board of Directors represent a mix of ages, genders, races, ethnicities, geographies, cultures, and other perspectives that we believe expand our Board of Directors' understanding of the needs and viewpoints of our partners, employees, stockholders, and other stakeholders.

Director Candidates

Our Board of Directors has a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and overseeing the management of our business, and accordingly, we seek to attract and retain highly qualified directors who have sufficient time to engage in the activities of our Board of Directors and to understand and enhance their knowledge of our industry and business plans. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates, our Board of Directors, in approving (and, in the case of vacancies, appointing) such candidates, may take into account many factors, including: personal and professional integrity; ethics and values; experience in corporate management, such as serving as an officer or former officer of a publicly held company; strong finance experience; experience relevant to our industry; experience as a board member or executive officer of another publicly held company; relevant academic expertise or other proficiency in an area of our operations; diversity of expertise and experience in substantive matters pertaining to our business relative to other board members; diversity of background and perspective, including, but not limited to, with respect to age, gender, race, place of residence and specialized experience; practical and mature business judgment, including, but not limited to, the ability to make independent analytical inquiries; and any other relevant qualifications, attributes or skills. The core competencies of directors should address accounting or finance experience, market familiarity, business or management experience, industry knowledge, customer-base experience or perspective, crisis response, leadership, and/or strategic planning. Our Board of Directors evaluates each individual in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of assembling a group that can best perpetuate the success of the business and represent stockholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment using its diversity of experience in these various areas.

Our Board of Directors will consider candidates for director recommended by stockholders, so long as such recommendations comply with our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, nominating and corporate governance committee charter and applicable laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC. Our Board of Directors will evaluate such recommendations in accordance with our Bylaws and our policies and procedures for director candidates, including our corporate governance guidelines. This process is designed to ensure that our Board of Directors includes members with diverse backgrounds, skills and experience, including appropriate financial and other expertise relevant to our business. Eligible stockholders wishing to recommend a candidate for nomination should contact us in writing. Such recommendations must include information about the candidate, a statement of support by the recommending stockholder, evidence of the recommending stockholder's ownership of our common stock and a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve on our Board of Directors.

Stockholder Communications

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding stockholder communications with our Board of Directors, stockholders may communicate with our Board of Directors, or any individual director on our Board of Directors, by writing to us at the address of our principal executive offices, addressing the communication to the attention of our Chief Executive Officer, and specifying the Board of Directors or, if applicable, the individual member thereof as the intended recipient of the communication. Our Corporate Secretary will forward to the directors all communications that, in her judgment, are appropriate for consideration by the directors. Examples of communications that would not be appropriate for consideration by the directors include commercial solicitations and matters not relevant to the stockholders, to the functioning of the Board of Directors or to the affairs of our Company. Any correspondence received that is addressed generically to the Board of Directors will be forwarded to the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy on whether or not the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be separate and believes that it should retain the flexibility to make this determination in the manner it believes will provide the most appropriate leadership for our company from time to time. Currently, Fawad Maqbool serves as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. We do not have a lead independent director. Mr. Maqbool sets the strategic direction for the company and provides day-to-day leadership. As Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr. Maqbool further oversees the agenda for board meetings in collaboration with the other board members. Our Board believes that it is in the best interest of the company and its stockholders for Mr. Maqbool to serve in both roles at this time given his knowledge of our company and industry. We believe that this structure provides appropriate leadership and oversight of the company and facilitates effective functioning of both management and our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors will continue to reassess the structure to determine what is in the best interests of the Company and stockholders.

The Board of Directors oversees our exposure to risk through its interaction with management and receipt from management of periodic reports outlining matters related to financial, operational, regulatory, legal and strategic risks. Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our Board of Directors encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the Board of Directors at regular board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on particular business functions, operations or strategies and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.

Code of Conduct

We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct that applies to all our directors, officers (including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and any person performing similar functions) and employees. We have made our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics available on our website at the following address: www.amplitechgroup.com under 'About Us-Governance Documents'. We expect that any future amendments to our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, or any waivers of its requirements, will be disclosed on our website.

Clawback Policy

To comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Rule 10D-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5608 applicable to incentive-based compensation for executive officers of listed companies, in November 2023, the Board adopted a Policy for the Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation (the "Clawback Policy") with an effective date of October 2, 2023. Current executive officers of the Company have agreed in writing to the terms and conditions of the Clawback Policy. Under the Clawback Policy, if the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws, the Company will recoup any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from the Company's current and former executive officers. Administration of the Clawback Policy will be by the Compensation Committee of the Company.

Hedging Transactions

Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits insiders from buying or selling puts, calls, other derivative securities of the Company or any derivative securities that provide the economic equivalent of ownership of any of the Company's Securities or an opportunity, direct or indirect, to profit from any change in the value of the Company's securities or engage in any other hedging transaction with respect to the Company's securities, at any time, with the exception of the Company's tradeable warrants.

Insider Trading Policy and Rule 10b5-1 Trading Programs

We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy which prohibits directors, officers and all other employees, or consultants or contractors, as well as family members of such persons (or any other person subject to the policy) from engaging in any transaction involving a purchase or sale of our securities, including any offer to purchase or offer to sell, based on material nonpublic information regarding the Company ("Material Nonpublic Information").

Under our Insider Trading Policy and pursuant to SEC Rule 10b5-1, directors, officers and employees may establish written programs which permit (i) automatic trading of the Company's stock through a third-party broker or (ii) trading of the Company's stock by an independent person (such as an investment bank) who is not aware of Material Nonpublic Information at the time of a trade. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director, executive officer, or other employee when entering into the plan, without further direction from such insider.

Annual Bonus Plan

On March 10, 2026, pursuant to the recommendation of the Compensation Committee the Board of Directors approved the annual performance milestones to determine eligibility for, and the amount of, annual performance bonuses for the named executive officers of the Company for the fiscal year ending 2026 and onward (the "Bonus Plan"). The purpose of the adoption of the Bonus Plan is to incentivize and reward executive officers for achieving specified financial, operational, and strategic objectives.

The Bonus Plan sets the amount of bonus each fiscal year each named executive officer is eligible to receive and the performance criteria for such bonus, which is based on the following three metrics: annual revenue, EBITDA/gross margin, and employee retention. All of the Company's named executive officers are eligible to participate in the annual bonus plan. The target bonuses set for the named executive officers under the Bonus Plan are as follows: (1) Fawad Maqbool, Chief Executive Officer, 75% of base annual salary and (2) Louisa Sanfratello, Chief Financial Officer, and Jorge Flores, Chief Operating Officer, 45% of base annual salary. The performance weightings for the executive management team are 50% for the revenue metric, 35% for the operating profit metric (based on EBITDA/gross margin) and 15% for employee retention metric. If the performance of any metrics does not meet the applicable minimum threshold for that measure, no award will be earned for that measure. If the minimum threshold is achieved, the target bonus will apply. For each minimum metric obtained, the weighted percentage will apply linearly, then all line metrics percentage achieved are added to calculate final percentage for the final bonus calculation. If the maximum metric performance is achieved, for each metric achieved, 10% will be added to each line metric with the maximum bonus being equal to 105% for Mr. Maqbool, and 75% for Ms. Sanfratello and Mr. Flores. Calculation of bonus for performance between minimum and maximum thresholds will be determined by linear interpolation. In addition, upon Board approval at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, a discretionary bonus for a maximum of 85% of annual base salary may also be awarded to Mr. Maqbool, and a maximum of 55% of annual base salary may be awarded to Ms. Sanfratello and Mr. Flores.

2026 Grants to Named Executive Officers

Pursuant to the terms of the Executive Employment Agreements, the Company granted each of the Named Executive Officers: (1) an incentive stock option to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock and (2) 50,000 restricted stock units that vest immediately upon grant. The option shall be subject to service-based vesting with twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares underlying the option vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) vesting in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments.

Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan

In October 2020, the Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the "2020 Plan", effective as of December 14, 2020. Under the 2020 Plan, the Company reserved 1,250,000 shares of common stock to grant shares of common stock to employees and individuals who perform services for the Company. The purpose of the 2020 Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide incentives to individuals who perform services for the Company, and to promote the success of the Company's business. The 2020 Plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Nonstatutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units, Performance Shares and other stock or cash awards as the Board of Directors may determine. In 2023, the Board and the stockholders adopted the Company's Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Amended and Restated Plan"), effective as of December 11, 2023. The Amended and Restated Plan is substantially similar to the 2020 Plan except that it increases the shares of our common stock available for issuance thereunder to 2,250,000 shares of common stock.

On October 1, 2025, the Company's Board unanimously approved an Amendment to the Amended and Restated Plan to increase the number of shares subject to the Amended and Restated Plan by an additional 2,800,000. On December 10, 2025 at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, such amendment was approved by the stockholders.

As of December 31, 2025, all outstanding stock options were issued according to the Company's Amended and Restated Plan, and there remains 3,487,375 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the Amended and Restated Plan.

Policies and Practices Related to the Timing of Grants of Certain Equity Awards

The Compensation Committee does not have a policy or practice on when to grant option awards. The Compensation Committee does not have a policy or practice of taking into account material nonpublic information when determining the timing and terms of option awards and does not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Option awards are not granted in anticipation of the release of material non-public information, and the release of material non-public information is not timed on the basis of option grant dates. However, if public announcement of material information is anticipated, the grant date of any option awards may be deferred at the discretion of the Compensation Committee until the first trading day after release of such information.

Clawback Policy

We have adopted a Policy for the Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation (the "Clawback Policy") that applies to our executive officers (including our Chief Executive Officer) and certain other key employees in compliance with Rule 10D-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5608. The policy is administered by our Compensation Committee and applies in the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement of our financial statements due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements (a "Big R" restatement), or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period (a "little r" restatement). The policy requires the Compensation Committee to recover reasonably promptly the amount of any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received by any current or former executive officer in the event of an accounting restatement, subject to the limited exceptions permitted by Rule 10D-1.

	a)	Subtract amounts reported in "Stock Awards" and "Option Awards" columns of the Summary Compensation Table.
	b)	For any equity awards granted in the covered fiscal year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the covered fiscal year, add the year-end fair value.
	c)	For any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the covered fiscal year, add the increase (or subtract the decrease) in fair value by comparing the fair value at the end of the fiscal year with the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year.
	d)	For awards that are granted and vest in the same covered fiscal year, add the fair value as of the vesting date. For awards granted in prior years that vest in the covered fiscal year, add the increase (or subtract the decrease) in fair value by comparing the fair value on the vesting date with the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year.
	e)	Subtract the prior fiscal year fair value of equity awards granted during prior years that fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the covered fiscal year.
	f)	The fair value of stock options at each measurement date was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used (expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected term) differ materially from those used at the grant date because they reflect market conditions and the remaining term of the awards at each measurement date.

OTHER MATTERS

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires that our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock (referred to herein as the "reporting persons") file with the SEC various reports as to their ownership of and activities relating to our common stock. Such reporting persons are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
