EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1, dated May 2, 2023 (this “Amendment No. 1”), supplements and amends the Schedule 13D filed by James A. Barnes, an individual and Takako Barnes, an individual (the “Reporting Persons” and each, a “Reporting Person”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 11, 2022 relating to shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Wrap Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

The Company reported an increase in outstanding shares on Form 10K/A dated May 1, 2023. The filing of this Amendment No. 1 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
