LogicMark, Inc. Issues Letter Urging Shareholders to Vote “For” All Annual Meeting Proxy Proposals to Strengthen the Company’s Ability to Create Lasting Shareholder Value
Louisville, KY, August 8, 2022 – LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK) (the “Company” or “LogicMark”), a provider of personal emergency response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and technology for the growing care economy, today issued the following letter to LogicMark shareholders urging shareholders to vote “For” all proxy proposals for the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2022 Annual Meeting”) taking place on August 25, 2022, to enable the company to continue driving the creation of lasting shareholder value.
For information about the 2022 Annual Meeting please visit https://www.logicmark.com
The full text of the letter follows.
August 8, 2022
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Since joining LogicMark a little more than a year ago, my mission has been to strengthen the foundations upon which LogicMark’s future success is being built to position the Company to create lasting shareholder value. This challenging and highly rewarding process has, to date, heralded a series of changes in our approach to business operations which have vastly improved our financial condition, corporate governance, cost management, expanded our intellectual property portfolio, and added highly specialized management and Board of Director talent who serve with us as the stewards of tomorrow’s LogicMark to become a leader in the new care economy.
1
With our recent introduction of our new Direct-to-Consumer sales channel and new website and e-commerce platform, we have set the stage for deeper connections with our customers and stronger growth. We are far along in our new product development efforts, incorporating advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning into exciting new products with features that extend the care path and security for families focused on loved ones’ aging-in place and enhanced remote activity monitoring. Our growth plans are based upon expanding our product and service offerings and entering new markets, deepening existing and diversifying new revenue generation to continue driving steady growth, increase our margins and create lasting shareholder value.
Our shareholder value creation strategies are inherently tied to our continued execution, strong management and Board of Director leadership, partnering with the most qualified auditor for our needs, employing an attractive and incentivizing new Stock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”) which is intended to reduce potential dilution once adopted, as the two existing stock incentive plans will be terminated upon adoption of the 2022 Plan, and adopting the most advantageous incorporation domicile profile to reduce operating costs and simplify while continuing to strengthen our corporate governance. These are the pivotal elements of our proxy proposals. We have already demonstrated our ability to right the ship. And today’s LogicMark is stronger as a result of our tangible accomplishments. Our upcoming annual meeting and proxy proposals require your support as the means to further strengthen LogicMark and position the Company for lasting shareholder value creation. The Board and I cannot more strongly convey the importance your vote has in shaping the future of our Company and our success and we strongly urge all shareholders to vote “For” each of our proposals to enable us to accomplish the expansive growth and prudent management strategies before us.
While we have made significant progress over the past year in improving the overall business and focusing on the initiatives that are aimed at driving shareholder value creation, there is still a lot of work to do. With your support, we are confident in a very bright future for LogicMark. By voting “For” the proposals in the Annual Meeting proxy, we will be able to continue our progress and build on our recent success in accomplishing our ambitious goals and objectives.
Vote “For” for Proposal No. 1: The members of the Board of Directors each has the expertise and experience the company believes necessary to support the Company’s continued transformation into a technology company focused on building solutions for the new care economy. Over the last year, the Company has added three new Board members who bring experience with technology, strategic marketing, rapid growth, and expertise in the care economy.
Vote “For” Proposal No. 2: Management considers the selection of BPM LLP to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. After evaluating six potential audit firms, the Company believes that BPM is the best choice for the Company, both from a service and cost level.
2
Vote “For” for Proposal No 3: The Company believes that the 2022 Plan will allow it to continue to attract able directors, employees, consultants, and independent contractors and enable them to acquire and maintain Common Stock ownership in the Company. Concurrent with the adoption of this new Plan, the Company’s two existing stock incentive plans: the 2013 Plan and the 2017 Plan, will be terminated and the Company intends for potential dilution to shareholders to be reduced from 20% to 15%, as a result. The 2022 Plan also has no provision permitting the Company to reprice options. The Company, its new board, and new senior officers are committed to continuing to drive value and change for the benefit of our stockholders and adopting the 2022 Plan is one such undertaking to assist the effort to accomplish this.
Vote “For” Proposal No. 4: The Company expects that its re-incorporation from Delaware to Nevada will measurably reduce its operating costs and will also give it a greater measure of flexibility and simplicity in corporate governance than is available under Delaware law.
All votes are important, regardless of the number of shares owned. Shareholders as of the annual meeting record date, June 28, 2022, will be entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Shareholders are encouraged to read about the proposals in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 30, 2022. For assistance with voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, at 888-742-1305 or via email: LogicMark@laurelhill.com
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish to thank our shareholders for your continued support and look forward to making 2022 and beyond a highly transformative and rewarding period for LogicMark.
Sincerely,
Chia-Lin Simmons
CEO of LogicMark
