EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Report on Form 6-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the
Report on Form 6-K filed on December 22, 2023 (the “Original 6-K”) in connection with the material agreement Vision Marine

by reference the Company’s Registration Statements on (i) Forms F-3 and (ii) Form S-8, as set forth below.
Except as described above, this Amendment speaks as of the original
filing date of the Original 6-K and does not amend, update or restate any information set forth in the Original 6-K or reflect any events
that occurred subsequent to the original filing date of the Original 6-K.

shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Company’s registration statements on Forms F-3 (File Nos. 333-267893
and 333-274882) and the Company’s registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333- 264089) and to be a part thereof from the

be amended or supplemented from time to time, and to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is furnished, to the extent
not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 21, 2023, the Company, completed a
closed a capital raise in which it grossed $2,900,000 in proceeds. Pursuant to the capital raise, the Company entered into a securities
purchase agreement and placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) and issued shares of preferred stock
and warrants, each of which is described in greater detail below.
Securities Purchase Agreement
On December 13, 2023, the Company entered into
a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with institutional and accredited investors (the “Purchasers”),
for the offering (the “Offering”) of (i) shares of the Company’s series A convertible preferred stock, no par value
(the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a price of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) per share and (ii) warrants to purchase shares
of the Company’s common shares (the “Warrants”), with an exercise price equal to $1.05, subject to adjustment therein,
and which expire on the five (5)-year anniversary of the issue date.
Each of the Purchasers has an option valid for six months to purchase
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants in an amount and for a purchase price equal to such Purchaser’s participation in
the Purchase Agreement.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties and agreements by the Company and the other parties thereto, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of
the parties, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and other obligations
of the parties.
The Company closed the initial transactions pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement whereby it issued 2,900 Shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 2,761,904 Warrants in exchange for $2,900,000
of gross proceeds.
Registration Rights Agreement
On December 13, 2023, in connection with the
Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Rights Agreement”) pursuant
to which the Company agreed to, within sixty (60) calendar days of December 21, 2021, the date of execution of the Purchase Agreement,
use its best efforts to have a registration statement or registration statements (as is necessary) covering the resale of all Common
Shares underlying the Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights and obligations
of the parties.
Warrants
The Warrants are exercisable at $1.05 per share. The exercise price
of the warrants may be adjusted in the event of, among other matters, stock splits, stock dividends and issuances of equity at a per common
share price (or deemed price). If all of the Warrants are exercised at the current exercise price, we will receive an additional $2,900,000
in gross proceeds.
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders
On December 13, 2023, the Company amended the
certificate of incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) by filing as Schedule A-2023 to the Certificate
of Incorporation as a modification of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (“Modification to Certificate”) with
the Enterprise Registrar of the Province of Québec, which established the Series A Preferred Stock, having such designations, rights
and preferences as set forth in Schedule A-2023, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion, in accordance
with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws.
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock rank senior to the Common Stock
but retain no voting rights.
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock have a
stated value of $1,000 per share (the “Series A Stated Value”) and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common
shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”) at the election of the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time at a
price of $1.05 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Set Price”). The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the election
of a holder into that number of Common Shares determined by dividing the Series A Stated Value (plus any and all other amounts which may
be owing in connection therewith) by the Set Price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations which prohibit any holder from
converting into an amount of Common Shares that would cause such holder to beneficially own more than 4.99% of the then outstanding Common
Shares). On the one-year anniversary of the original issuance date, the Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common
Shares at the lesser of: (y) the then Set Price and (z) 80% of the average volume-weighted average price of our Common Shares during the
five trading days ending on, and including, such date. In no event shall the conversion price for the Series A Preferred Stock be less
than $0.30, subject to adjustment herein.
The foregoing descriptions of the Modification to Certificate and the
Series A Preferred Stock designations do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the Modification
to Certificate, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 6-K and incorporated herein by reference.
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase
Agreement, the Placement Agency Agreement, the Warrants, the Certificate of Modification, and the Rights Agreement, are qualified in
their entirety by reference to the full text of such Purchase Agreement, Warrants, Placement Agency Agreement, Certificate of
Modification, and Rights Agreement.
This Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express the Company’s intentions, beliefs, expectations,
strategies, predictions, or any other statements related to the Company’s future activities, or future events or conditions. These
statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business based, in part, on assumptions
made by its management. These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that
are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking
statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in documents that the Company files from time to time with the SEC.
Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 6-K, except as required not by law.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The Securities and the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Securities are not registered under the Securities Act, but they qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities
Act. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities
by the Company did not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial
number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company
did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, the Purchaser had
the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since the Purchaser agreed to, and received, the
securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures
that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.”
Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the
Securities Act.
