PROXY STATEMENT

Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” refer to EnSync, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Our fiscal year ends on June 30 of each year. In this proxy statement, we refer to fiscal years by reference to the calendar year in which they end (e.g., the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 is referred to as “fiscal 2015”).

The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of EnSync, Inc. for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Tuesday, November 17, 2015 at 10:00 a.m., local time, or at any postponement or adjournment of the annual meeting, for the purposes set forth in this proxy statement and in the accompanying notice of annual meeting of shareholders. The annual meeting will be held at the Radisson Hotel, N88 W14750 Main Street, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin 53051.

The expenses of printing and mailing proxy materials, including expenses involved in forwarding materials to beneficial owners of stock, will be paid by us. No solicitation other than by mail is contemplated, except that our officers or employees may solicit the return of proxies from certain shareholders by telephone.

Our Board of Directors recommends that our shareholders vote their shares:

	“ FOR ” the two Class II directors nominated by the Board of Directors to serve until the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders;
	“ FOR ” the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the proposal regarding the compensation paid to our named executive officers;
	“ FOR ” the proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended to date, to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized thereunder from 150,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares (the “Authorized Share Increase Proposal”); “ FOR ” the proposal to amend the 2010 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder by 5,000,000 shares, and approve increased individual award limits and re-approve performance measures under the plan for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code; “ FOR ” the proposal to amend the 2012 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder by 1,500,000 shares; and
	“ FOR ” the ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on September 30, 2015 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual meeting. As of the record date, there were 47,157,459 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, 2,575 shares of series B convertible preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 28,048 shares of series C convertible preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held as of the close of business on the record date, and each holder of our series B convertible preferred stock is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock issuable upon conversion of our series B convertible preferred stock held as of the close of business on the record date. As of the record date, each share of our series B convertible preferred stock was convertible into 1,251 shares of common stock. Accordingly, each share of our series B convertible preferred stock is entitled to 1,251 votes on each matter presented at the annual meeting.

Holders of our series C convertible preferred stock also have the right to vote on an as-converted basis on the Authorized Share Increase Proposal. Each holder of our series C convertible preferred stock is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock issuable upon conversion of our series C convertible preferred stock held as of the close of business on the record date on this proposal. As of the record date, each share of our series C convertible preferred stock was convertible into 1,497 shares of common stock. Accordingly, each share of our series C convertible preferred stock is entitled to 1,497 votes on the Authorized Share Increase Proposal.

The presence, in person or by proxy, of one-third of the total votes entitled to be cast on each matter at the annual meeting will constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, which are proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owners or other persons entitled to vote shares as to a matter with respect to which brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power to vote, will be treated as present for purposes of determining the quorum.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting, which means the two nominees receiving the most affirmative votes will be elected. On all other matters except the Authorized Share Increase Proposal an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast is required for approval. With respect to the Authorized Share Increase Proposal, the following votes are required for approval: (1) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the common shareholders, (2) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock voting together on a combined basis and (3) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock and series C convertible preferred stock voting together on a combined basis.

Except as described above with respect to the Authorized Share Increase Proposal, the holders of the shares of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the record date will vote together, on a combined basis, on each matter to be presented at the annual meeting.

Banks, brokers and other holders of record do not have discretionary authority to vote shares held in street name in connection with non-routine proposals, which include all the proposals other than the Authorized Share Increase Proposal and the ratification of the appointment of Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. As a result, broker non-votes will occur at the 2015 Annual Meeting with respect to these non-routine proposals. However, since broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast they will have no effect on the outcome of these proposals.

Banks, brokers and other holders of record have discretionary authority to vote shares held in street name, even if they do not receive instructions from the beneficial owner, on routine proposals, which includes the Authorized Share Increase Proposal and the ratification of the appointment of an independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, if you do not provide your bank, broker or other holder of record with voting instructions with respect to these proposals, such holder will have discretionary authority to vote your shares held in street name on these proposals at the 2015 Annual Meeting. As a result of this discretionary authority, broker non-votes are not expected to occur in connection with Proposal 3 or Proposal 6 at the annual meeting.

We are making this proxy statement and our Annual Report to Shareholders available on the Internet instead of mailing a printed copy of these materials to shareholders. Shareholders will not receive a printed copy of these materials other than as described below. Instead, the Shareholder Meeting Notice for the 2015 Annual Meeting (the “Notice”) contains instructions as to how shareholders may access and review all of the important information contained in the materials on the Internet, including how shareholders may submit proxies by telephone or over the Internet. If you would prefer to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions for requesting printed copies included in the Notice. The Notice will be mailed to shareholders on or about October 7, 2015.

If a proxy is granted properly by using the Internet or telephone procedures specified in the Notice or a proxy card is properly signed and returned to us and not revoked, it will be voted in accordance with the instructions given. Each shareholder may revoke a previously granted proxy at any time before it is exercised by using the Internet or telephone procedures specified in the Notice or by submitting written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date to us. Attendance at the annual meeting will not, in itself, constitute revocation of a proxy but a shareholder in attendance may request a ballot and vote in person, which revokes a prior granted proxy. Where a proxy is properly signed and returned without indicating any voting instructions regarding a proposal, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors on all matters presented in this proxy statement.

The Board of Directors knows of no other matters to be presented at the annual meeting. If any other matter should be presented at the annual meeting, the proxy holders may vote any shares represented by proxy in their discretion.

Two directors are to be elected at this annual meeting to hold office until the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Upon the recommendation of the Nominating/Governance Committee of our Board of Directors, the Board of Directors has nominated and recommended Richard A. Abdoo and Manfred E. Birnbaum for election to the Board of Directors, each as a Class II director.

Shares represented by all proxies received by the Board of Directors and not marked so as to withhold authority to vote for any individual nominee will be voted “ FOR ” the election of all the nominees named below. The Board of Directors knows of no reason why any such nominee would be unable or unwilling to serve, but if such should be the case, proxies may be voted for the election of some other person nominated by the Board of Directors.

Election of the directors requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock, voting together on a combined basis. Accordingly, the two director nominees receiving the most affirmative votes will be elected. An abstention or broker non-vote will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

Corporate Governance Principles and Board Matters

Board Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that each of James H. Ozanne, Richard A. Abdoo, Manfred E. Birnbaum, Paul F. Koeppe and Theodore Stern is an independent director within the meaning of the director independence standards of the NYSE MKT (“NYSE MKT”). Furthermore, the Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Governance Committee are independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of NYSE MKT and the rules of the SEC applicable to each such committee.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board of Directors has an independent chairman, meaning that the positions of chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer are not held by a single individual. The Board of Directors believes that having an independent chairman ensures that management is subject to independent and objective oversight and the independent directors have an active voice in the governance of the Company.

Executive Sessions of Independent Directors

Executive sessions of our independent directors are generally held following each regularly scheduled in-person meeting of the Board of Directors. Executive sessions do not include any non-independent directors and are led by the chairman of the Board of Directors, who is independent. The independent directors of the Board of Directors met in executive session 5 times in fiscal 2015.

Policies Regarding Director Nominations

Director Qualifications

The Nominating/Governance Committee is responsible for identifying the appropriate qualifications, skills and characteristics desired of members of the Board of Directors in the context of the needs of the business and the current composition and needs of the Board of Directors.

Director candidates are considered based upon a variety of criteria, including demonstrated business and professional skills and experiences relevant to our business and strategic direction, concern for long-term shareholder interests, personal integrity and sound business judgment. The Board of Directors seeks men and women from diverse professional backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of relevant industry and strategic experience and expertise that, in concert, offer us and our shareholders diversity of opinion and insight in the areas most important to us and our corporate mission. In addition, nominees for director are selected to have complementary, rather than overlapping, skill sets. However, the Nominating/Governance Committee does not have a formal policy concerning the diversity of the Board of Directors. All candidates for director nominee must have time available to devote to the activities of the Board of Directors. The Nominating/Governance Committee also considers the independence of candidates for director nominee, including the appearance of any conflict in serving as a director. Candidates for director nominees who do not meet all of these criteria may still be considered for nomination to the Board of Directors, if the Nominating/Governance Committee believes that the candidate will make an exceptional contribution to us and our shareholders.

Process for Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees

The Board of Directors is responsible for selecting its own members. The Board of Directors delegates the selection process to the Nominating/Governance Committee, with the expectation that other members of the Board of Directors, and of management, may be requested to take part in the process as appropriate. Generally, the Nominating/Governance Committee identifies candidates for director nominees in consultation with management, through the recommendations submitted by other directors or shareholders or through such other methods as the Nominating/Governance Committee deems appropriate. Once candidates have been identified, the Nominating/Governance Committee confirms that the candidates meet the qualifications for director nominees established by the Nominating/Governance Committee. The Nominating/Governance Committee may gather information about the candidates through interviews, detailed questionnaires, comprehensive background checks, or any other means that the Nominating/Governance Committee deems to be helpful in the evaluation process. The Nominating/Governance Committee then meets as a group to discuss and evaluate the qualities and skills of each candidate, both on an individual basis and taking into account the overall composition and needs of the Board of Directors. Based on the results of the evaluation process, the Nominating/Governance Committee recommends candidates for the Board of Directors’ approval as director nominees for election to the Board of Directors.

Policy for Recommendation of Director Nominees by Shareholders

The policy of the Nominating/Governance Committee is to consider properly submitted shareholder recommendations for director candidates in accordance with our Policies Regarding Recommendation of Director Candidates. Under our policy, recommendations for director candidates other than those made by the Board of Directors or the Nominating/Governance Committee must be made pursuant to timely notice in proper written form to the secretary of EnSync. To be timely, a shareholder’s recommendation of a candidate for election to the board at an annual meeting of shareholders, together with the written consent of such person to serve as a director, must be received by the secretary of EnSync not more than 120 days before the date our proxy statement was released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting. To be in proper written form, the notice must contain certain information concerning the nominee and the shareholder submitting the nomination and include:

·	the name and address of the shareholder submitting the recommendation, the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the recommendation is made and the director candidate;

·	the class and number of shares of our stock that are owned beneficially and of record by the shareholder and, if applicable, the beneficial owner, including the holding period for such shares as of the date of the recommendation;

·	full biographical information concerning the director candidate, including a statement about the director’s qualifications;

·	all other information regarding each director candidate proposed by such shareholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission;

·	description of all arrangements or understandings among the shareholder and the candidate and any other person or persons pursuant to which the recommendation is being made;

·	description of all relationships between the candidate and any of our competitors, customers, suppliers, labor unions or other persons with special interests regarding us; and

·	a written consent of the candidate to be named in our proxy statement and stand for election if nominated by the Board of Directors and to serve if elected by the shareholders.

Recommendations must be sent to the Chairman of the Nominating/Governance Committee c/o the Secretary, EnSync, Inc., N93 W14475 Whittaker Way, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin 53051. Once the Nominating/Governance Committee receives a recommendation for a director candidate, such candidate will be evaluated in the same manner as other candidates and a recommendation with respect to such candidate will be delivered to the Board of Directors. The submission of a recommendation by a shareholder in compliance with these procedures will not guarantee the selection of the shareholder’s candidate or the inclusion of the candidate in the proxy statement for the annual meeting. A shareholder wishing to formally nominate a candidate (as opposed to recommending a candidate for nomination by the Board as described above) must do so by following the procedures set forth in our Amended and Restated By-laws (“Bylaws”).

Policy Governing Director Attendance at Annual Meetings of Shareholders

Our policy is to schedule a regular meeting of the Board of Directors on the same date as our annual meeting of shareholders and, accordingly, directors are encouraged to be present at such shareholder meetings. All of our then-current board members attended the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct. The Code of Business Conduct, in accordance with Section 406 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 406 of Regulation S-K, constitutes our Code of Ethics. The Code of Business Conduct codifies the business and ethical principles that govern our business.

The Code of Business Conduct is designed, among other things, to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

·	Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

·	Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

·	The prompt internal reporting violations of the ethics code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code of ethics; and

·	Accountability for adherence to the Code.

Our Code of Business Conduct has historically been posted and is available on our website at www.ensync.com . Additionally, this Code of Business Conduct is provided to all directors, officers and all other personnel upon joining the Company, and thereafter from time-to-time to any person, upon request, and without charge. A copy may also be obtained, free of charge, from us upon a request directed to EnSync, Inc., N93 W14475 Whittaker Way, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin 53051, attention: Investor Relations. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of a provision of the code of ethics by posting such information on our website available at www.ensync.com or in our public filings with the SEC.

For more corporate governance information, you are invited to access the Corporate Governance section of our website available at www.ensync.com .

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Our compensation philosophy is to offer our executive officers compensation and benefits that are competitive and meet our goals of attracting, retaining and motivating highly skilled management, which is necessary to achieve our financial and strategic objectives and create long-term value for our shareholders. We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable and appropriate for our business needs and circumstances. The principal elements of our executive compensation program have to date included base salary, and long-term equity compensation in the form of restricted stock or stock options. We believe successful long term Company performance is more critical to enhancing shareholder value than short term results. For this reason and to conserve cash and better align the interests of management and our shareholders, we emphasize long-term performance-based equity compensation over base annual salaries.

Employment Agreements

On May 19, 2014, Bradley L.

Pursuant to the employment agreement, in May 2014 Mr. Hansen was awarded an inducement option grant to purchase 360,000 shares of common stock that vests in three annual installments beginning on May 19, 2015 and in July 2014 he was awarded 360,000 restricted stock units that vest subject to the satisfaction of certain performance-based vesting requirements. The per share exercise price of the options is $1.72 which was the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE MKT on May 19, 2014.

Mr. Hansen’s employment agreement was amended on July 13, 2015 in connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer to increase his annual salary to $300,000 per year and extend the initial term until June 30, 2019. Additionally, the July 13, 2015 amendment provides that, subject to receipt of shareholder approval for any required increase in authorized shares under the Company’s articles of incorporation and/or equity plans, Mr. Hansen will receive a restricted stock unit award covering 1,500,000 shares of our common stock. The restricted stock units will vest in full upon the completion of 40 megawatts worth of Projects (as defined in the Supply Agreement between the Company and Solar Power, Inc.); provided that upon Mr. Hansen’s termination without Cause, for Good Reason, Disability (each, as defined in Mr. Hansen’s employment agreement), or for death on or before June 30, 2019, a portion of the restricted stock units shall vest equal to the portion of the series C convertible preferred stock that have become convertible on or before such termination.

If his employment agreement is terminated for Disability, Mr. Hansen will be entitled to a severance payment in an amount equal to six months of his annual base salary as then in effect.

The annual retainer for a non-employee director for a year will be awarded as of the date of the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”) in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Company’s 2012 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan (or any successor plan thereto) (the “Stock Plan”). The RSUs will have the following terms and conditions: (A) the number of RSUs will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the award by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the first business day preceding the Annual Meeting, rounded up to the next whole share; (B) 25% of the RSUs will vest on the date of grant, and the remaining RSUs will vest 25% each on March 31, June 30 and September 30 following the Annual Meeting, provided the non-employee director remains in continuous service with the Board through the applicable vesting date; (C) the RSUs will vest earlier in the event of a “Change in Control” of the Company (as defined in the Stock Plan); (D) except in the case of Mr. Birnbaum’s RSUs, vested RSUs will be payable upon the earlier of (x) the date that is six months after the non-employee director “separates from service” with the Board (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code) or (y) the date of a Change in Control (provided that the Change in Control is a permissible “change in control” payment event within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code); (E) Mr. Birnbaum’s vested RSUs will be payable on vesting; (F) vested RSUs will be payable in the form of one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU then payable; and (G) the RSUs will otherwise be subject to the terms of the Stock Plan and will be evidenced by an appropriate RSU award agreement.

In addition, an annual Chairman’s retainer in the following amounts, payable in cash quarterly in arrears: $30,000 for the Chairman of the Board; $12,000 for the Chairman of the Audit Committee and for the Chairman of the Compensation Committee; and $8,000 for the Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee.

In addition, an annual committee membership fee in the amount of $6,000 for each committee of the Board on which the non-employee director serves, payable in cash quarterly in arrears, provided the non-employee director remains in continuous service with the Board through each applicable payment date.

An employee of the Company who serves as a director receives no additional compensation for such service.

PROPOSAL 2 – ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Proposal

We are providing our shareholders with the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation by casting their vote on this Proposal 2. This non-binding, advisory vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers as described in this proxy statement.

At our annual meeting of shareholders for 2014, 89% of the votes cast on the non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers were voted in favor of the proposal. The compensation committee believes this affirms the shareholders’ support of our approach to executive compensation.

Our executive compensation program, which is described in detail in the “Executive and Director Compensation” section beginning on page 15, is intended to offer our executive officers compensation and benefits that are competitive and meet our goals of attracting, retaining and motivating highly skilled management, which is necessary to achieve our financial and strategic objectives and create long-term value for our shareholders. We believe that our executive compensation program accomplishes these goals in a way that is consistent with our purpose and core values and the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Although the vote on this Proposal 2 regarding the compensation of our named executive officers is not binding, we value the opinions of our shareholders and will consider the result of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements.

If this proposal is approved, our shareholders will be approving the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, is hereby approved.

Vote Required for Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast on the foregoing resolution by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock, voting together on a combined basis, is required to approve, on an advisory basis, such resolution. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends a vote “ FOR ” this Proposal 2.

PROPOSAL 3—APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, AS AMENDED

TO DATE, TO INCREASE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

General

Our Board is seeking shareholder approval of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation which would increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 150,000,000 to 300,000,000. The proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles of Amendment”) is attached hereto as Appendix A.

The newly authorized shares of common stock would have the same rights as the currently outstanding shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2015, 47,157,459 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding, 1,936,034 shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding restricted stock unit awards, 1,655,778 shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding stock option awards, 1,067,287 shares were reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans, 52,927,952 shares were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock purchase warrants, 42,000,600 shares were reserved for issuance upon the conversion of outstanding series C convertible preferred stock and 3,254,890 shares were reserved for issuance upon the conversion of outstanding series B convertible preferred stock. Accordingly, all 150,000,000 authorized shares of our common stock are currently issued or reserved and none remain available for future issuance.

Reasons for the Increase in Authorized Shares

The Board believes that the increase in authorized shares would be beneficial for the following reasons:

Ensure that an adequate number of shares are available for potential future corporate purposes. An increase in the number of authorized shares of our common stock enables us to have a sufficient number of shares available for a variety of possible future corporate purposes, including but not limited to raising additional capital through future equity transactions and issuance of stock under the Omnibus Plan and 2012 Director Equity Plan including, specifically,(i) the awards anticipated to be issued under the Omnibus Plan as described below in “ Anticipated Awards if the Omnibus Plan Amendment is Approved ” in Proposal 4 of this Proxy Statement and (ii) the awards anticipated to be issued under the 2012 Director Equity Plan as described below in “ New Plan Benefits ” in Proposal 5 of this Proxy Statement if this Proposal 3, Proposal 4 and Proposal 5 are approved by the Company’s shareholders. However, other than issuance of stock under the Omnibus Plan and 2012 Director Equity Plan, we have no plans, arrangements or understandings to issue any of the newly authorized shares for any purpose at this time.

Enable equity transactions to raise additional capital. The availability of additional shares of our common stock will permit us to raise capital through equity transactions. Any such additional capital may be used for a variety of purposes including general corporate and working capital purposes. However, we have no plans, arrangements or understandings for any equity transactions at this time.

Potential Anti-Takeover Effect

An increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to engage in a merger, tender offer or proxy contest or assume control of a large voting block of our common stock. The authorized but unissued shares of common stock could be used by our Board of Directors to discourage, delay or make more difficult a change in the control of the Company. For example, our Board of Directors could implement a rights plan or similar arrangement pursuant to which shares of common stock would be issued to other stockholders on highly-dilutive terms if the party seeking to acquire control of the Company has purchased a substantial amount of common stock, or such additional shares could be privately placed with purchasers who might align themselves with our Board of Directors in opposing a hostile takeover bid. At present, neither the Company’s Articles of Incorporation nor Bylaws contain provisions having an anti-takeover effect, the Company does not have plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences, and the Board of Directors did not adopt the Articles of Amendment with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.

Implementation of the Authorized Share Increase

Following shareholder approval of this proposal, the authorized share increase would be implemented by our filing the Articles of Amendment with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions. However, at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the Articles of Amendment with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, the Board of Directors reserves the right to abandon this proposal and to not file the Articles of Amendment, even if approved by the shareholders of the Company, if the Board of Directors, in its discretion, determines that such amendment is no longer in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders.

Vote Required for Approval

The following votes of our shareholders are required for approval of this proposal: (1) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the common shareholders, (2) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock voting together on a combined basis and (3) the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the votes cast by the holders of our common stock and series C convertible preferred stock voting together on a combined basis. Abstentions will not be counted as voting and, therefore, will have no impact on the approval of the proposal. Broker non-votes are not expected not occur in connection with this proposal.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the approval of the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation.

PROPOSAL 4—APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO

ENSYNC, INC. 2010 OMNIBUS LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

(FORMERLY THE ZBB ENERGY CORPORATION 2010 OMNIBUS LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN);

APPROVAL OF CODE SECTION 162(m) LIMITS AND CRITERIA

General

On August 26, 2010, our Board of Directors originally adopted the 2010 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 approved by the Company’s shareholders at its 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 7, 2012 and Amendment No. 2 approved by the Company’s shareholders at its 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 18, 2014 (the “Omnibus Plan”). As of September 30, 2015, approximately 684,001 shares remained available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan. Our Board of Directors has determined that this remaining amount is insufficient to meet the Company’s equity compensation requirements.

On September 17, 2015, our Board of Directors approved Amendment No. 3 to the Omnibus Plan described in this proposal (the “Omnibus Plan Amendment”), subject to shareholder approval. If approved by the shareholders, the Omnibus Plan Amendment will increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan by 5,000,000 shares. Notwithstanding shareholder approval of this Proposal 4, if Proposal 3 (the Authorized Share Increase Proposal) discussed above is not approved by the Company’s shareholders, the Board of Directors may elect not to implement the Omnibus Plan Amendment until a sufficient number of shares of the Company’s common stock have been authorized under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to allow the Company to issue the shares reserved under the Omnibus Plan as amended by the Omnibus Plan Amendment.

We are also asking shareholders to approve increased individual award limits, and to re-approve business criteria that can be used in establishing performance goals for performance awards granted under the Omnibus Plan, in each case as described in this Proposal 4, for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

A copy of the Omnibus Plan Amendment is attached as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement. The material terms of the Omnibus Plan, assuming the approval of the Omnibus Plan Amendment, are summarized below under the heading “Material Features of the Omnibus Plan.” This summary of the Omnibus Plan is not intended to be a complete description of the Omnibus Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the actual text of the Omnibus Plan, which is attached as Appendix A to the Company’s proxy statement for the Company’s 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the SEC on September 24, 2010; Appendix A to the Company’s proxy statement for the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the SEC on September 25, 2012; and Appendix A to the Company’s proxy statement for the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the SEC on October 9, 2014.

Reasons for the Amendment

The purpose of the Omnibus Plan Amendment is to provide the Company with sufficient flexibility to continue to use the Omnibus Plan to further the Company’s compensation philosophy and programs. Our Board of Directors believes that the interests of the Company and its shareholders will be advanced if we can continue to offer our officers, non-employee directors, key employees, consultants and advisors the opportunity to acquire or increase a direct ownership interest in the operations and future success of the Company. In addition, the ability to obtain and retain new quality personnel by offering competitive compensation is of great importance to the success of the Company. However, our Board of Directors has determined that the current number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the Omnibus Plan is insufficient for the stated objectives of the Omnibus Plan. The Omnibus Plan Amendment will increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan by 5,000,000 shares.

Material Features of the Omnibus Plan

Administration of the Plan

Our Board of Directors has such powers and authorities related to the administration of the Omnibus Plan as are consistent with our corporate governance documents and applicable law. Pursuant to its charter, the Omnibus Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Administrator”).

Type of Awards

The following types of awards are available for grant under the Omnibus Plan: Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”), Non-qualified Stock Options (“NSOs”), Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”), Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, cash- or stock-based Performance awards (each as defined in the Omnibus Plan) and other stock-based awards.

Number of Authorized Shares

If shareholders approve the Omnibus Plan Amendment, subject to adjustment (in connection with certain changes in capitalization), the total number of shares of our common stock that will be reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Plan will be 5,789,001, all of which will be available for issuance under ISOs.

If shareholders approve the Omnibus Plan Amendment, the maximum number of each type of award (other than cash-based Performance awards (as defined in the Omnibus Plan)) intended to constitute “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) (“Section 162(m)”) granted to any grantee in any 36-month period may not exceed the following:

Options—3,000,000;

SARs—3,000,000;

Restricted Stock—3,000,000;

Restricted Stock Units—3,000,000; and

Other Stock-based Performance awards—3,000,000.

Shareholders are being asked to approve the foregoing increased limits (which currently are each 2,225,000) for purposes of Section 162(m) under this Proposal 4.

We currently do not anticipate issuing awards in amounts that will cause us to use more than approximately one-third of the remaining available shares in any fiscal year. As a result we anticipate that the number of shares reserved for awards under the Omnibus Plan will be sufficient to cover our equity awards for at least fiscal 2016, 2017 and 2018.

Share Counting

Shares of our Common Stock underlying any outstanding stock Option or other awards granted under our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (formerly known as the ZBB Energy Corporation 2007 Equity Incentive Plan) or any other predecessor employee Omnibus Plan of the Company that are forfeited, terminated or cancelled for any reason without issuance of such shares shall be available for the grant of new awards under the Omnibus Plan. If any award under the Omnibus Plan expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited, in whole or in part, or the shares of Common Stock are not delivered because the award is settled in cash or used to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligations, the unissued shares of our Common Stock covered by such award shall again be available for the grant of awards under the Omnibus Plan. If shares of our Common Stock issued pursuant to the Omnibus Plan are repurchased by, or are surrendered or forfeited to the Company at no more than cost, such shares of our Common Stock shall again be available for the grant of awards under the Omnibus Plan. In addition, in the case of any Substitute award (as defined in the Omnibus Plan), such Substitute award shall not be counted against the number of shares reserved under the Omnibus Plan.

Eligibility and Participation

Eligibility to participate in the Omnibus Plan is limited to such employees, officers, non-employee directors, consultants and advisors of the Company, or of any affiliate, as the Administrator may determine and designate from time to time. As of September 30, 2015, approximately 59 employees, five executive officers, seven non-employee directors and one consultant would have been eligible to receive awards under the Omnibus Plan.

New Plan Benefits. We cannot currently determine the total benefits or number of shares subject to awards that may be granted in the future under the Omnibus Plan. However, in accordance with Mr. Hansen’s July 2015 employment agreement amendment, if the Omnibus Plan Amendment is approved by the shareholders, Bradley L. Hansen, our President and Chief Executive Officer, will receive a restricted stock unit award covering 1,500,000 shares of our common stock. In addition, pursuant to an employment agreement entered into with a non-executive officer in August 2015, if the Omnibus Plan Amendment is approved by the shareholders, this employee will receive a restricted stock unit award covering 340,000 shares of our common stock and an option award covering 360,000 shares of our common stock. The following table sets forth information concerning these anticipated awards under the Omnibus Plan:

Name and Position	Number of RSUs (#)	Number of Options (#)
Bradley L. Hanson, President and Chief Executive Officer	1,500,000 (1)	-
Executive Group	1,500,000 (1)	-
Non-Executive Officer Employee Group	340,000 (2)	360,000 (3)

__________

(1)

Comprises a restricted stock unit award expected to be granted to Mr. Hansen. These restricted stock units will vest in full upon the completion of 40 megawatts worth of Projects (as defined in the Supply Agreement between the Company and Solar Power, Inc.); provided that upon Mr. Hansen’s termination without Cause, for Good Reason, Disability (each, as defined in Mr. Hansen’s employment agreement), or for death on or before June 30, 2019, a portion of the restricted stock units shall vest equal to the portion of the series C convertible preferred stock that have become convertible on or before such termination.

(2)	These RSUs will vest in full on the fourth anniversary of the employment start date, subject to continued employment on the applicable vesting date.

(3)	These options will vest in three equal annual installments, subject to continued employment on the applicable vesting date.

Stock Options and SAR s

Grant of Options and SARs. The Administrator may award ISOs, NSOs (each, an “Option”, and together, “Options”), and SARs to grantees under the Omnibus Plan. SARs may be awarded either in tandem with or as a component of other awards or alone.

Exercise Price of Options and SARs. The exercise price per share of an Option will be at least 100% of the fair market value per share of our stock underlying the award on the grant date. A SAR will confer on the grantee a right to receive, upon exercise, a payment of the excess of (1) the fair market value of one share of our stock on the date of exercise over (2) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Administrator. The grant price will be fixed at the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of grant. SARs granted in tandem with an outstanding Option following the grant date of such Option will have a grant price that is equal to the Option’s exercise price; provided, however, that the SAR’s grant price may not be less than the fair market value of a share of stock on the grant date of the SAR.

Vesting of Options and SARs. The Administrator will determine the terms and conditions (including any performance requirements) under which an Option or SAR will become exercisable and will include such information in the award agreement.

Special Limitations on ISOs. In the case of a grant of an Option intended to qualify as an ISO to a grantee that owns more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of our outstanding stock (a “Ten Percent Shareholder”), the exercise price of the Option will not be less than 110% of the fair market value of a share of our stock on the grant date. Additionally, an Option will constitute an ISO only (1) if the grantee is an employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, (2) to the extent such Option is specifically designated as an ISO in the related award agreement, and (3) to the extent that the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the shares of stock with respect to which all ISOs held by such grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Omnibus Plan and all other plans of the grantee’s employer and its affiliates) does not exceed $100,000.

Exercise of Options and SARs. An Option may be exercised by the delivery to us of written notice of exercise and payment in full of the exercise price (plus the amount of any taxes which we may be required to withhold). The Administrator has the discretion to determine the method or methods by which a SAR may be exercised.

Expiration of Options and SARs. Options and SARs will expire at such times as the Administrator determines; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than 10 years from the date of grant, or in the case of an ISO held by a Ten Percent Shareholder, not more than five years from the date of grant.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

Restricted Stock. At the time a grant of Restricted Stock is made, the Administrator may establish the applicable “restricted period” and prescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the restricted period, including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives. Unless the Administrator otherwise provides in an award agreement, holders of Restricted Stock will have the right to vote such stock and the right to receive any dividends declared or paid with respect to such stock. The Administrator may provide that any such dividends paid must be reinvested in shares of stock, which may or may not be subject to the same vesting conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock. All distributions, if any, received by a grantee with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, or other similar transaction will be subject to the restrictions applicable to the original grant.

The grantee will be required, to the extent required by applicable law, to purchase the Restricted Stock at a price equal to the greater of (1) the aggregate par value of the shares of stock represented by such Restricted Stock or (2) the price, if any, specified in the award agreement relating to such Restricted Stock. If specified in the award agreement, the price may be deemed paid by services already rendered.

Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit is a bookkeeping entry representing the equivalent of shares of stock awarded to a grantee. At the time a grant of Restricted Stock Units is made, the Administrator may establish the applicable “restricted period” and prescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the restricted period, including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives. Restricted Stock Units will not confer shareholder rights to grantees. The Administrator may provide that the holder of Restricted Stock Units will be entitled to receive dividend equivalent rights, which may be deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units.

Cash- and Stock-Based Performance Awards

Under the Omnibus Plan the Administrator may grant performance awards under which the grantee’s ability to exercise or receive a grant or settlement of any award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such performance conditions as may be specified by the Administrator. The Administrator may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions, and may, subject to certain limitations in the case of a Performance award intended to qualify under Section 162(m), exercise its discretion to reduce the amounts payable under any award subject to performance conditions.

We intend that performance awards granted to persons who are designated by the Administrator as likely to be “Covered Employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) and regulations thereunder will, if so designated by the Administrator, constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) and regulations thereunder. The grant, exercise and/or settlement of such Performance awards will be contingent upon achievement of pre-established performance goals which will consist of one or more business criteria and a targeted level or levels of performance with respect to each of such criterion. Performance goals will be objective and will otherwise meet the requirements of Section 162(m) and regulations thereunder.

In addition, the maximum amount of each cash-based Performance award intended to constitute “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) granted to a grantee in any 12-month period will not exceed $2,000,000. Shareholders are being asked to re-approve this $2,000,000 limit for purposes of Section 162(m) under this Proposal 4.

One or more of the following business criteria for the Company will be used exclusively by the Administrator in establishing performance goals for such awards:

net sales;

revenue;

revenue growth or product revenue growth;

operating income (before or after taxes);

pre- or after-tax income (before or after allocation of corporate overhead and bonuses);

net earnings;

earnings per share;

net income (before or after taxes);

return on equity;

total shareholder return;

return on assets or net assets;

appreciation in and/or maintenance of, share price;

market share;

gross profits;

earnings (including earnings before taxes, earnings before interest and taxes or earnings before interest, taxes depreciation and amortization);

economic value-added models or equivalent metrics;

comparisons with various stock market indices;

reduction in costs;

cash flows or cash flows per share (before or after dividends);

return on capital (including return on total capital or return on invested capital);

cash flow return on investment;

improvement in or attainment of expense levels or working capital levels;

operating margins;

gross margins or cash margin;

year-end cash;

debt reductions;

shareholder equity;

implementation, completion or attainment of measurable objectives with respect to research, development, products or projects and recruiting and maintaining personnel; and

to the extent permitted by applicable law, any other business criteria as determined by the Administrator.

Shareholders are being asked to re-approve the foregoing business criteria on which performance goals may be based for purposes of Section 162(m) in this Proposal 4.

Other Stock-Based Awards

The Administrator may, in its discretion, grant other stock-based awards, consisting of stock units or other awards, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based upon, our Common Stock. The terms of such other stock-based awards will be set forth in the applicable award agreements.

Change in Control.

Subject to the requirements and limitations of Section 409A if applicable, the Administrator may provide for any one or more of the following in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the Omnibus Plan):

The Administrator may, in its discretion, provide in any award agreement or, in the event of a Change in Control, may take such actions as it deems appropriate to provide for the acceleration of the exercisability, vesting and/or settlement in connection with such Change in Control of each or any outstanding award or portion thereof and shares acquired pursuant thereto upon such conditions, including termination of the grantee’s Service (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) prior to, upon, or following such Change in Control, to such extent as the Administrator shall determine .

In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of any grantee, either assume or continue the Company’s rights and obligations under each or any award or portion thereof outstanding immediately prior to the Change in Control or substitute for each or any such outstanding award or portion thereof a substantially equivalent award with respect to the Acquiror’s stock, as applicable; provided, however, that if so determined by the Administrator, in its discretion, an award denominated in shares of stock shall be deemed assumed if, following the Change in Control, the award confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Omnibus Plan and the applicable award agreement, for each share of stock subject to the award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a share of stock on the effective date of the Change in Control was entitled; provided, further, that if such consideration is not solely common stock of the Acquiror, the Administrator may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise or settlement of the award, for each share of stock subject to the award, to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) to the per share consideration received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control and if any portion of such consideration may be received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control on a contingent or delayed basis, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine such Fair Market Value per share as of the time of the Change in Control on the basis of the Administrator’s good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration; provided, further, that any award or portion thereof which is neither assumed or continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised or settled as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control .

The Administrator may, in its discretion and without the consent of any grantee, determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each or any award or a portion thereof outstanding immediately prior to the Change in Control and not previously exercised or settled shall be canceled in exchange for a payment with respect to each vested share (and each unvested share, if so determined by the Administrator) of stock subject to such canceled award in (i) cash, (ii) stock of the Company or of a corporation or other business entity a party to the Change in Control, or (iii) other property which, in any such case, shall be in an amount having a Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market Value of the consideration to be paid per share of stock in the Change in Control, reduced by the exercise or purchase price per share, if any, under such award; provided, however, that if any portion of such consideration may be received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control on a contingent or delayed basis, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine such Fair Market Value per share as of the time of the Change in Control on the basis of the Administrator’s good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration and, in the event such determination is made by the Administrator, the amount of such payment (reduced by applicable withholding taxes, if any) shall be paid to grantees in respect of the vested portions of their canceled awards as soon as practicable following the date of the Change in Control and in respect of the unvested portions of their canceled awards in accordance with the vesting schedules applicable to such awards .

Deferral Arrangements

The Administrator may permit or require the deferral of any award payment into a deferred compensation arrangement .

Nontransferability of Awards

Generally, during the lifetime of a grantee, only the grantee may exercise rights under the Omnibus Plan and no award will be assignable or transferable other than by will or laws of descent and distribution. If authorized in the award agreement, a grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an award (other than an ISO) to certain family members (including trusts and foundations for the benefit thereof). Neither Restricted Stock nor Restricted Stock Units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the restricted period or prior to the satisfaction of any other restrictions prescribed by the Administrator .

Separation from Service

The Administrator may provide in the applicable award agreements for actions that will be taken upon a grantee’s Separation from Service (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) from the Company, including but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination of awards .

Tax Withholding and Tax Offset Payments

We will have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an award or upon the issuance of any shares of stock upon the exercise of an Option or pursuant to an award .

Term of Plan

The authority to make grants under the Omnibus Plan will terminate on November 10, 2020 .

Amendment and Termination

The Administrator may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Omnibus Plan as to any shares of stock as to which awards have not been made. An amendment will be contingent on approval of our shareholders to the extent stated by our Administrator, required by applicable law or required by applicable stock exchange listing requirements. No awards will be made after termination of the Omnibus Plan. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Omnibus Plan will, without the consent of the grantee, impair rights or obligations under any award theretofore awarded under the Omnibus Plan.

Clawback Policy

If any of the Company’s financial statements are required to be restated, the Company may recover all or a portion of any award made under the Omnibus Plan with respect to any fiscal year of the Company the financial results of which are negatively affected by the restatement. The amount to be recovered will be the amount by which the affected award exceeds the amount that would have been payable had the financial statements been initially filed as restated. In no event will the amount to be recovered by the Company be less than the amount required to be repaid or recovered as a matter of law.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of the general federal income tax consequences to the Company and to U.S. taxpayers of awards granted under the Omnibus Plan. Tax consequences for any particular individual or under state or non-U.S. tax laws may be different .

NSOs and SARs. No taxable income is reportable when a NSO or SAR is granted. Upon exercise, generally, the grantee will have ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the underlying shares of stock on the exercise date minus the exercise price. Any gain or loss upon the disposition of the stock received upon exercise will be capital gain or loss to the grantee if the appropriate holding period under federal tax law is met for such treatment .

ISOs. No taxable income is reportable when an ISO is granted or exercised (except for grantees who are subject to the alternative minimum tax, who may be required to recognize income in the year in which the ISO is exercised). If the grantee exercises the ISO and then sells the underlying shares of stock more than two years after the grant date and more than one year after the exercise date, the excess of the sale price over the exercise price will be taxed as long-term capital gain or loss. If the grantee exercises the ISO and sells the shares before the end of the two- or one-year holding periods, he or she generally will have ordinary income at the time of the sale equal to the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date (or the sale price, if less) minus the exercise price of the ISO .

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. A grantee of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units will not have taxable income upon the grant unless, in the case of Restricted Stock, he or she elects to be taxed at that time. Instead, he or she will have ordinary income at the time of vesting equal to the fair market value on the vesting date of the shares (or cash) received minus any amount paid for the shares.

Cash- and Stock-Based Performance Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards. Typically, a grantee will not have taxable income upon the grant of cash or stock-based Performance awards or other stock-based awards. Subsequently, when the conditions and requirements for the grants have been satisfied and the payment determined, any cash received and the fair market value of any common stock received will constitute ordinary income to the grantee.

Tax Effect for the Company. We generally will receive a tax deduction for any ordinary income recognized by a grantee in respect of an award under the Omnibus Plan (for example, upon the exercise of a NSO). In the case of ISOs that meet the holding period requirements described above, the grantee will not recognize ordinary income; therefore, we will not receive a deduction.

Because we are a public company, special rules limit the deductibility of compensation paid to our CEO and to each of our three most highly compensated executive officers other than our CEO whose compensation is required to be reported annually in our proxy statement. Under Section 162(m), the annual compensation paid to each of these executives may not be deductible to the extent that it exceeds $1 million. The limitation on deductions does not apply, however, to qualified “performance-based compensation.” Certain awards under the Omnibus Plan, including Options, SARs and cash- and stock-based Performance awards, may constitute qualified performance-based compensation and, as such, would be exempt from the $1 million limitation on deductible compensation.

Vote Required for Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast on the foregoing resolution by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock, voting together on a combined basis, is required to approve the Omnibus Plan Amendment and to approve the increased individual award limits and re-approve the business criteria that can be used in establishing performance goals for performance awards granted under the Omnibus Plan for the purposes of Section 162(m).. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as voting and, therefore, will have no impact on the approval of the proposal.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that the shareholders vote “ FOR ” approval of the Omnibus Plan Amendment and approval of the increased individual award limits and re-approval of business criteria that can be used in establishing performance goals for performance awards granted under the Omnibus Plan for the purposes of Section 162(m).

PROPOSAL 5—APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO

ENSYNC, INC. 2012 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN

(FORMERLY THE ZBB ENERGY CORPORATION 2012 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN)

General

On September 6, 2012, our Board of Directors adopted the 2012 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan, as approved by the Company’s shareholders at its 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 7, 2012, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 approved by the Company’s shareholders at its 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 18, 2014 (the “2012 Director Equity Plan). As of September 30, 2015, approximately 456,804 shares remained available for issuance under the 2012 Director Equity Plan. Our Board of Directors has determined that this remaining amount is insufficient to meet the Company’s equity compensation requirements .

On September 17, 2015, our Board of Directors approved the amendment to the 2012 Director Equity Plan described in this proposal (the “Director Plan Amendment”), subject to shareholder approval. If approved by the shareholders, the Director Plan Amendment will increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Director Plan by 1,500,000 shares. Notwithstanding shareholder approval of this Proposal 5, if Proposal 3 (the Authorized Share Increase Proposal) discussed above is not approved by the Company’s shareholders, the Board of Directors may elect not to implement the Director Plan Amendment until a sufficient number of shares of the Company’s common stock have been authorized under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to allow the Company to issue the shares reserved under the 2012 Director Plan as amended by the Director Plan Amendment.

A copy of the Director Plan Amendment is attached as Appendix C to this Proxy Statement. The material terms of the 2012 Director Equity Plan, assuming the approval of the Director Plan Amendment, are summarized below under the heading “Material Features of the 2012 Director Equity Plan.” This summary of the 2012 Director Equity Plan is not intended to be a complete description of the 2012 Director Equity Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the actual text of the 2012 Director Equity Plan, which is attached as Appendix B to the Company’s proxy statement for the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the SEC on September 25, 2012.

Reasons for the Amendment

The purpose of the Director Plan Amendment is to provide the Company with sufficient flexibility to continue to use the 2012 Director Equity Plan to further the Company’s compensation philosophy and programs. Our Board of Directors believes that the interests of the Company and its shareholders will be advanced if we can continue to offer our non-employee directors restricted stock unit awards and the other types of awards as discussed below to help align the interests of our non-employee directors with those of our shareholders. However, our Board of Directors has determined that the current number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2012 Director Equity Plan is insufficient for the stated objectives of the 2012 Director Equity Plan. The Director Plan Amendment will increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2012 Director Equity Plan by 1,500,000 shares.

Material Features of the 2012 Director Equity Plan

Administration of the Plan. Our Board of Directors has such powers and authorities related to the administration of the 2012 Director Equity Plan as are consistent with our corporate governance documents and applicable law. The Board of Directors has the full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the 2012 Director Equity Plan, any award or any award agreement, and has the full power and authority to take all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of the 2012 Director Equity Plan that the Board of Directors deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the plan.

Type of awards. Any type of award provided for in the Omnibus Plan is available for grant under the 2012 Director Equity Plan. For information concerning the types of awards that may be made under the 2012 Director Equity Plan, see the section entitled “Material Features of the Omnibus Plan” under Proposal 4 above.

Number of Authorized Shares. If shareholders approve the Director Plan Amendment, subject to adjustment (in connection with certain changes in capitalization), the total number of shares of our common stock that will be reserved for issuance under the 2012 Director Equity Plan will be 2,097,429.

We currently do not anticipate issuing awards in amounts that will cause us to use more than approximately one third of the remaining available shares in any fiscal year. As a result we anticipate that the number of shares reserved for awards under the 2012 Director Equity Plan will be sufficient to cover our equity awards to our non-employee directors for the current fiscal year and the next one to two fiscal years thereafter.

Share Counting. If any award under the 2012 Director Equity Plan expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited, in whole or in part, or the shares of Common Stock are not delivered because the award is settled in cash or used to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligations, the unissued shares of our Common Stock covered by such award shall again be available for the grant of awards under the 2012 Director Equity Plan. If shares of our Common Stock issued pursuant to the 2012 Director Equity Plan are repurchased by, or are surrendered or forfeited to the Company at no more than cost, such shares of our Common Stock shall again be available for the grant of awards under the 2012 Director Equity Plan.

Eligibility and Participation. Eligibility to participate in the 2012 Director Equity Plan is limited to those members of the Board of Directors who are not current employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2015, five directors were eligible to receive awards under the 2012 Director Equity Plan.

New Plan Benefits. We cannot currently determine the total benefits or number of shares subject to awards that may be granted in the future under the 2012 Director Equity Plan. However, as discussed above under “Non-employee Director Compensation” and in accordance with our Director Compensation Policy, if the Director Plan Amendment is approved by the shareholders we anticipate that on the date of the annual meeting our non-employee directors will receive restricted stock units as indicated in the following table:

New Plan Benefits
Dollar Value	Number of Units
$360,000	626,443 (1)

_________

(1)	Based on an assumed price of common stock equal to $0.5747 per share, which was the volume weighted average closing price of our common stock for the 20-closing day period ending September 30, 2015.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. For information concerning the federal income tax consequences associated with awards that may be made under the 2012 Director Equity Plan, see the section entitled “Federal Income Tax Consequences” under Proposal 4 above.

Change in Control. Subject to the requirements and limitations of Section 409A if applicable, the Board of Directors may provide for any one or more of the following in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the Omnibus Plan):

The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, provide in any award agreement or, in the event of a Change in Control, may take such actions as it deems appropriate to provide for the acceleration of the exercisability, vesting and/or settlement in connection with such Change in Control of each or any outstanding award or portion thereof and shares acquired pursuant thereto upon such conditions, including termination of the grantee’s Service (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) prior to, upon, or following such Change in Control, to such extent as the Board of Directors shall determine .

In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of any grantee, either assume or continue the Company’s rights and obligations under each or any award or portion thereof outstanding immediately prior to the Change in Control or substitute for each or any such outstanding award or portion thereof a substantially equivalent award with respect to the Acquiror’s stock, as applicable; provided, however, that if so determined by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, an award denominated in shares of stock shall be deemed assumed if, following the Change in Control, the award confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Director Equity Plan and the applicable award agreement, for each share of stock subject to the award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a share of stock on the effective date of the Change in Control was entitled; provided, further, that if such consideration is not solely common stock of the Acquiror, the Board of Directors may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise or settlement of the award, for each share of stock subject to the award, to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) to the per share consideration received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control and if any portion of such consideration may be received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control on a contingent or delayed basis, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine such Fair Market Value per share as of the time of the Change in Control on the basis of the Board of Directors’ good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration; provided, further, that any award or portion thereof which is neither assumed or continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised or settled as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control .

The Board of Directors may, in its discretion and without the consent of any grantee, determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each or any award or a portion thereof outstanding immediately prior to the Change in Control and not previously exercised or settled shall be canceled in exchange for a payment with respect to each vested share (and each unvested share, if so determined by the Board of Directors) of stock subject to such canceled award in (i) cash, (ii) stock of the Company or of a corporation or other business entity a party to the Change in Control, or (iii) other property which, in any such case, shall be in an amount having a Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market Value of the consideration to be paid per share of stock in the Change in Control, reduced by the exercise or purchase price per share, if any, under such award; provided, however, that if any portion of such consideration may be received by holders of stock pursuant to the Change in Control on a contingent or delayed basis, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine such Fair Market Value per share as of the time of the Change in Control on the basis of the Board of Directors’ good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration and, in the event such determination is made by the Board of Directors, the amount of such payment (reduced by applicable withholding taxes, if any) shall be paid to grantees in respect of the vested portions of their canceled awards as soon as practicable following the date of the Change in Control and in respect of the unvested portions of their canceled awards in accordance with the vesting schedules applicable to such awards .

Deferral Arrangements. The Board of Directors may permit or require the deferral of any award payment into a deferred compensation arrangement .

Nontransferability of Awards. Generally, during the lifetime of a grantee, only the grantee may exercise rights under the 2012 Director Equity Plan and no award will be assignable or transferable other than by will or laws of descent and distribution. If authorized in the award agreement, a grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an award (other than an ISO) to certain family members (including trusts and foundations for the benefit thereof). Neither Restricted Stock nor Restricted Stock Units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the restricted period or prior to the satisfaction of any other restrictions prescribed by the Board of Directors.

Separation from Service. The Board of Directors may provide in the applicable award agreements for actions that will be taken upon a grantee’s Separation from Service (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) from the Company, including but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination of awards.

Tax Withholding and Tax Offset Payments. We will have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an award or upon the issuance of any shares of stock upon the exercise of an Option or pursuant to an award.

Term of Plan. The authority to make grants under the 2012 Director Equity Plan will terminate on November 7, 2022.

Vote Required for Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast on the foregoing resolution by the holders of our common stock and series B convertible preferred stock, voting together on a combined basis, is required to approve the Director Plan Amendment. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as voting and, therefore, will have no impact on the approval of the proposal .

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

September 2013 Private Placement Transaction

On September 26, 2013, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with certain investors providing for the sale of shares of our series B Convertible Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to $1,000. Shares of Preferred Stock were sold for $1000 per share (the “Stated Value”) and accrue dividends on the Stated Value at an annual rate of 10%. The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) at a conversion price equal to $0.95 (the “Conversion Price”). In connection with the purchase of the Preferred Stock, each investor received a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 100% times such investor’s investment in the Preferred Stock divided by the Conversion Price, at an exercise price equal to the Conversion Price. Officers and directors purchased, directly or indirectly, a total of $1,500,000 of shares of Preferred Stock and received warrants to purchase common stock as follows:

In accordance with our Bylaws, nominations, other than by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, of candidates for election as directors at the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be received by us no earlier than June 20, 2016 and no later than August 19, 2016. Such nominations must also satisfy the other requirements for shareholders nominations set forth in our bylaws.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our outstanding common stock, to file initial reports of ownership with respect to our equity securities and reports of changes in such ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC rules to furnish us with all copies of Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, we believe that during the year ended June 30, 2015, all filing requirements were timely satisfied, except for Mr. Abdoo who filed one late Form 4 on October 8, 2014 for a transaction that occurred on October 3, 2014 and Ms. Wagner and Mr. Dennis who each filed one late Form 4 on November 20, 2014 for transactions that occurred on November 5, 2014

EXPENSES AND SOLICITATION

The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by us, and in addition to soliciting shareholders by mail, our directors, officers and other employees may, without receiving additional compensation, solicit proxies personally or by telephone. Solicitation by our directors, officers and other employees may also be made of some of our shareholders in person or by mail, telephone or telegraph following the original solicitation. We may request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward proxy soliciting materials to the owners of our stock held in their names and, if so, will reimburse such banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the distribution of such proxy materials. We may also retain an independent proxy solicitation firm to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board of Directors knows of no business that will be presented for consideration at the annual meeting other than those items stated above. If any other business should come before the annual meeting, votes may be cast pursuant to proxies in respect to any such business in the best judgment of the person or persons acting under the proxies.
