Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Delaware statutes and our bylaws. We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, both through our bylaws and specific indemnification agreements. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the securities and exchange commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

We will then be governed by the court's decision.
Limitation Of Liability Of Directors
Our certificate of incorporation provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware revised statutes, no director of the company will be personally liable to the company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
The following is a summary of transactions within the last three years involving sales of our securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:
At inception (February 2011), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer contributed approximately $10,000 in cash in exchange for our securities in respect of various start-up costs.
From August 1, 2012 until January 9, 2013, we conducted a private placement whereby we raised $209,000 through the sale of 836,000 shares of stock, at a purchase price of $0.25 per share (the “2012 Offering”). The Company used the proceeds from the above stock issuances for general working capital purposes. The shares of common stock issued in the transaction described above have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were issued and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. These securities may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.
On October 5, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant to provide public relations and marketing services to the Company for a period of three months. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to pay the consultant a monthly cash fee of $5,000 and to issue the consultant shares of common stock per month with a fair value of $10,000 as compensation for services provided. The Company issued the consultant 120,000 shares of common stock in connection with the agreement. This agreement has been extended until March 31, 2013 on the same terms and conditions. In connection with the extension, 120,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $30,000 as compensation for services provided from January 1, 2013 to March 31, 2013 was issued on March 31, 2013.
On January 9, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant to provide business development services to the Company for a period of three months. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued the consultant 20,000 shares of common stock.
On January 11, 2013, we awarded $5,000 of stock to our director, David Gust, as a quarterly retainer at an assumed price of $0.25 per share. The shares were awarded from our Long-term Incentive Plan.
On March 31, 2013, we awarded 20,000 shares of common stock to our director, David Gust, as a quarterly retainer at an assumed price of $0.25 per share.

UNDERTAKINGS
Item 17. Undertakings. | ||||
(a) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: | |||
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: | |||
i. | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; | |||
ii. | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement. | |||
iii. | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. | |||
(2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. | |||
(3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. | |||
(4) | For determining liability of the undersigned registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: | |||
i. | Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; | |||
ii. | Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
II-4 |
iii. | The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and | |||
iv. | Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. | |||
(b) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. | |||
(c) | (1) | For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the small business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1), or (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective. | ||
(c) | (2)
|
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities. | ||
(d) | For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) or under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. | |||
(e) | For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |

Re: Shares to be registered on Form S-1
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to you, Nxt-ID, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) in connection with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (File No. 333-186331) (the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement covers: (a) $1,000,000 of units (the “Units”), each Unit consisting of (A) one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (each a “Share” or in the aggregate, the “Shares”) and (B) a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock for $1.00 per share (each a “Warrant” or in the aggregate, the “Warrants”, (b) shares issued in respect of the exercise of a Warrant, (the “Warrant Shares”) and (c) 1,076,000 shares of Common Stock issued to certain selling shareholders (the “Selling Shareholders”) in connection with the Company’s private placement between August 2012 and January 2013.
In connection with this matter, we have examined the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the following: (a) Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date, (b) By-laws of the Company, as amended to date, and (c) the Registration Statement and all exhibits thereto.
In addition to the foregoing, we also have relied as to matters of fact upon the representations made by the Company and their representatives and upon representations made by the Selling Shareholders.

We do not hold ourselves out as being conversant with, or expressing any opinion with respect to, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of New York, and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).
