Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 8, 2021, LogicMark, LLC (“LogicMark”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Nxt-ID, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2019, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), with each financial institution from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, as lender (the “Lenders”), and a senior secured lender, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, LogicMark made a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan (defined below) in the amount of $5,000,000 (the “Prepayment”) and the Agent agreed to accept (i) LogicMark’s payment of a prepayment premium in the amount of $125,000, which is equal to 2.5% of the Prepayment, rather than 5% of the Prepayment as required by the Credit Agreement, and (ii) an extension of the maturity date of the Term Loan to May 22, 2023. As a result of the Prepayment, LogicMark’s resulting loan balance is approximately $5,752,127. The Company believes that the Prepayment will result in significant interest savings to the Company.
The Company previously disclosed LogicMark’s entry into the Credit Agreement in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 9, 2019 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to make a term loan to LogicMark in an aggregate principal amount of $16,500,000 (the “Term Loan”). The Company previously disclosed the first amendment to the Credit Agreement in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2020 filed with the SEC on November 16, 2020.
A copy of the form of Second Amendment is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”) and is incorporated herein by reference.
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express the Company’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to the Company’s future activities, or future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business based, in part, on assumptions made by its management. These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in other documents that the Company files from time to time with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K, except as required by law.

6. Release. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (a) neither it nor any of its Affiliates has any claim or cause of action against any Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants or agents) under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (b) each Agent and each Lender has heretofore properly performed and satisfied in a timely manner all of its obligations to such Loan Party and its Affiliates under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”
As to each and every claim released hereunder, each Loan Party also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law (including without limitation the laws of the state of New York), if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

Each Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.
Each Loan Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of the Released Parties above that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) the Released Parties on the basis of any claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to this Section 6. Each Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Collateral Agent’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If any Loan Party or any of its respective successors, assigns, or officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it violate the foregoing covenant, such Person, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as the Released Parties may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the Released Parties as a result of such violation.
7. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Second Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Second Amendment by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Second Amendment.
