EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On November 10, 2020, Nxt-ID, Inc. (the “Company”) began distribution of a letter (the “Letter”) from Vincent Miceli, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, to the Company’s stockholders regarding the Company’s upcoming Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which has been adjourned to Tuesday, November 17, 2020. The Letter supplements the Definitive Proxy Statement that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 17, 2020 and the Definitive Additional Materials filed with the SEC on September 29, 2020, October 5, 2020, October 14, 2020, October 27, 2020, October 29, 2020 and November 6, 2020.

 

Our board of directors has fixed the close of business on August 17, 2020 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

 

Below is a copy of the Letter.

 

Your Vote is Needed

Please Vote Your Shares Today!

 

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

 

The Annual Meeting has been adjourned again to Tuesday, November 17, 2020 to give our stockholders additional time to vote on Proposals 3 and 4 concerning our proposed reverse stock split, which are described in the proxy materials previously provided to you. We need your vote – PLEASE VOTE TODAY!

 

The reverse stock split MUST BE APPROVED by a majority of our outstanding shares, as of the record date of the Annual Meeting, in order for us to remain a listed company on Nasdaq. Remaining listed on Nasdaq is vital in order to complete the undertakings described below and add to them in 2021. If you are receiving this proxy solicitation, then you are entitled to vote, even if you have sold your shares after the record date. If you have already voted “NO” you may change your vote to “YES.” We are close to receiving the necessary number of votes in favor of the reverse stock split, and therefore every vote is important regardless of the number of shares you own. The Board of Directors of the Company recommends that you vote FOR Proposals 3 and 4. Please take the time to respond by voting today!

 

The Company’s management continues to work very hard during the COVID-19 pandemic in order move the company forward. We continue to make progress with new product development, including the new Guardian Alert Plus (4G version), and the launch of new products. For example, the first round of WiFi product field testing has been completed and the Company anticipates a formal launch in early 2021. We also want to look into acquisitions of new products and distribution channels to continue to grow our Company and improve shareholder value.
