Who Can Vote

Stockholders of record at the close of business on February 14, 2022 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date, the Company had 11,541,452 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued and outstanding. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held as of the Record Date.

How You Can Vote

Stockholders are invited to attend the virtual Annual Meeting to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. However, stockholders do not need to attend the virtual Annual Meeting to vote. Instead, stockholders may submit their vote online by following the instructions on the enclosed proxy card, or by simply completing, signing and returning the enclosed proxy card.

If your proxy is properly returned to the Company, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the virtual Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions specified thereon. If you return your proxy without specifying how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, the proxy will be voted: (i) FOR the election of three directors nominated by our Board to serve until our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (ii) FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid to our named executive officers (the “Say-on-Pay Proposal”); (iii) FOR the adoption of the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan; (iv) FOR ratification of the appointment of Eide Bailly, LLP as our independent auditors for the year ended September 30, 2022; and (v) at the discretion of the proxy holders on any other matter that may properly come before the virtual Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

If a bank, broker or other institution holds your shares, you will receive instructions from the holder of record that you must follow in order for your shares to be voted.

Broker Non-Votes

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee (typically a broker or bank) holding shares for a beneficial owner (typically referred to as shares being held in “street name”) submits a proxy for the Annual Meeting, but does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and does not have discretionary authority to vote the shares with respect to that proposal.

Brokers and other nominees may vote on “routine” proposals on behalf of beneficial owners who have not furnished voting instructions, subject to the rules applicable to broker nominees concerning transmission of proxy materials to beneficial owners, and subject to any proxy voting policies and procedures of those firms. The ratification of the independent registered public accountants, for example, is a routine proposal. Brokers and other nominees may not vote on “non-routine” proposals, unless they have received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. The election of directors, Say-on-Pay Proposal, and the adoption of the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan are considered “non-routine” proposals. This means that brokers and other firms must obtain voting instructions from the beneficial owner to vote on these matters; otherwise they will not be able to cast a vote for these “non-routine” proposals. If your shares are held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, please follow their voting instructions so you can instruct your broker on how to vote your shares.

Attendance at Virtual Annual Meeting

We will host the Annual Meeting live online, via Internet webcast. You may attend the Annual Meeting virtually by visiting https://web.lumiagm.com/258932038. The webcast will start at 11:00 A.M., C.T., on April 13, 2022.

To virtually attend the Annual Meeting please go to https://web.lumiagm.com/258932038. You have the option to log in to the virtual Annual Meeting as a “Stockholder” with a control number” or as a “Guest.” The password for the meeting is track2022. If you are not a stockholder of record, but hold shares through an intermediary, such as a bank or broker, trustee or nominee (sometimes referred to as holding in “street name”), you may attend the meeting as “Guest” by entering your name and email address. As a Guest, you will have access to the meeting materials, but you will not be able to vote during the Meeting.

-2-

If you hold your shares through an intermediary, such as a bank or broker, and you desire to vote during the Annual Meeting, you must register in advance to virtually attend the Annual Meeting as a Stockholder. To register to attend the virtual Annual Meeting as a Stockholder, you must provide proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date, such as an account statement, legal proxy from your broker, or similar evidence of ownership along with your name and email address to proxy@astfinancial.com. Requests for Annual Meeting registration of beneficial owners must be labeled as “Legal Proxy” and be received no later than 5:00 P.M. E.T., on April 6, 2022. You will receive a confirmation of your virtual Annual Meeting registration by email after our transfer agent receives your registration materials. Requests for registration should be directed by email to proxy@astfinancial.com. You will receive a confirmation email of your Annual Meeting registration and will receive a control number to enter the meeting as a Stockholder. Whether you virtually attend the Annual Meeting as a Stockholder or as a Guest, please allow yourself ample time for the online check-in procedures.

Revocation of Proxies

Stockholders of record can revoke their proxies at any time before they are exercised in any one of three ways:

●

by voting at the virtual Annual Meeting;

●

by submitting written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company prior to the Annual Meeting; or

●

by submitting another proxy bearing a later date that is properly executed prior to or at the Annual Meeting.

Quorum

In order for any business to be conducted at the Annual Meeting, a quorum must be present. The presence at the Annual Meeting, either virtually or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock entitled to vote will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If you submit a properly executed proxy, regardless of whether you abstain from voting on one or more matters, your shares will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for the purpose of establishing a quorum. Shares that constitute broker non-votes will also be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for the purpose of establishing a quorum. If a quorum is not present at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, the stockholders who are present may adjourn the Annual Meeting until a quorum is present. The time and place of the adjourned Annual Meeting will be announced at the time the adjournment is taken, and no other notice will be given. An adjournment will have no effect on the business that may be conducted at the Annual Meeting.

Vote Required for Approval

Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. Directors are elected by a plurality vote. This means the director nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes cast at the Annual Meeting, up to the number of directors to be elected, will be elected as directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of the directors.

Proposal No. 2: Advisory Vote to Approve Executive Compensation. The affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, is necessary to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers. This advisory vote is not binding on us, our Board of Directors, or management. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for this Proposal.

Proposal No. 3: Adoption of the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, is necessary to approve the adoption of the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for this Proposal.

Proposal No. 4: Ratification of Appointment of Auditors. The affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, is necessary to ratify the appointment of Eide Bailly, LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. A broker or other nominee will generally have discretionary authority to vote on this Proposal because it is considered a routine matter, and therefore we do not expect broker non-votes with respect to this Proposal. However, any broker non-votes received will have no effect on the outcome of this Proposal.

Solicitation

We will bear the entire cost of solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, our Annual Report, the proxy and any additional solicitation materials furnished to our stockholders. Copies of any solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares of Common Stock in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation material to such beneficial owners. In addition, we may reimburse such persons for their costs in forwarding the solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by telephone, facsimile or other means by our directors, officers or employees. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services. Except as described above, we do not presently intend to solicit proxies other than by mail and telephone.

PROPOSAL NO. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the number of directors that constitute our entire Board of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by resolution adopted by a majority of our entire Board. A director elected by our Board of Directors to fill a vacancy shall serve for the remainder of the term of that director and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified. Our Board of Directors has nominated the following three individuals for election to our Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting: Guy Dubois, Karen Macleod and Karim Sehnaoui.

Each nominee, if elected at the Annual Meeting, will hold office for a one-year term until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their successor is duly elected, unless prior thereto the director resigns or the director’s office becomes vacant by reason of death or other cause. If any such person is unable or unwilling to serve as a nominee for the office of director at the date of the Annual Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the proxy holders or by our present Board of Directors to fill such vacancy, or for the balance of those nominees named without nomination of a substitute, and our Board of Directors may be reduced accordingly. Our Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of such nominees will be unwilling or unable to serve if elected as a director.

Required Vote

Directors are elected by a plurality vote. This means that the nominees for directors who receive the highest number of affirmative votes cast at the Annual Meeting, up to the number of directors to be elected, will be elected as directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of the directors.

Board of Directors Recommendation

Our Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the election of each nominee set forth below.

Director Nominations

The Board nominates directors for election at each annual meeting of stockholders and appoints new directors to fill vacancies when they arise, and has the responsibility to identify, evaluate and recruit qualified candidates to the Board for such nomination or appointment.

Our Board of Directors identifies director nominees by first considering those current members of the Board who are willing to continue service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue service are considered for re-nomination, balancing the value of continuity of service by existing members of the Board with that of obtaining a new perspective. Nominees for director are selected by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors. Although the Company does not have a formal diversity policy, in considering the suitability of director nominees, the Board considers such factors as it deems appropriate to develop a Board that is diverse in nature and comprised of experienced and seasoned advisors. Factors considered by the Board include judgment, knowledge, skill, diversity, integrity, experience with businesses and other organizations of comparable size, including experience in the software and/or technology industries, software, intellectual property, business, finance, administration or public service, the relevance of a candidate’s experience to our needs and experience of other Board members, experience with accounting rules and practices, the desire to balance the considerable benefit of continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new members, and the extent to which a candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any committees of the Board.

A stockholder who wishes to suggest a prospective nominee for our Board of Directors may notify the Secretary of the Company in writing with any supporting material the stockholder considers appropriate. Nominees suggested by stockholders are considered in the same way as nominees suggested from other sources.

In addition, our Bylaws contain provisions that address the process by which a stockholder may nominate an individual to stand for election to our Board of Directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. In order to nominate a candidate for director, a stockholder must give timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Company and otherwise comply with the provisions of our Bylaws. Information required by our Bylaws to be in the notice include: the name, contact information and share ownership information for the candidate and the person making the nomination, and other information about the nominee that must be disclosed in proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and its related rules and regulations. Our Board of Directors may also require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Board to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as director of the Company. The recommendation should be sent to: Secretary, Track Group, Inc., 200 E. 5th Avenue, Suite 100, Naperville, Illinois 60563. You can obtain a copy of our Bylaws by writing to the Secretary at this address.

Board Meetings

Directors are generally elected for a term of one year until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected or appointed and duly qualified. Vacancies on the Board which are created by the retirement, resignation or removal of a director, may be filled by the vote of the remaining members of the Board, with such new director serving the remainder of the term or until his/her successor is elected and qualified.

The Board is elected by and is accountable to our stockholders. The Board establishes policy and provides strategic direction, oversight, and control. The Board met 12 times during the year ended September 30, 2021 and incumbent directors attended approximately 92% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board.

Board Committees and Charters

Prior to May 31, 2018, the Board had three standing committees which consisted of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Due to the resignations of certain former directors during 2018 as previously disclosed by the Company and the current size of the Board, these committees are no longer active. Instead, the full Board administers the duties of each of these committees and will likely do so for the foreseeable future.

-6-

Audit Committee

Prior to May 31, 2018, we had a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The primary duties of the Audit Committee were to oversee (i) management’s conduct related to our financial reporting process, including reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company, and reviewing our systems of internal accounting and financial controls, (ii) our independent auditors’ qualifications and independence and the audit and non-audit services provided to the Company, and (iii) the engagement and performance of our independent auditors. The Audit Committee assisted the Board in providing oversight of our financial and related activities, including capital market transactions. The Audit Committee has a charter, a copy of which is available on our website at www.trackgrp.com.

Currently, the entire Board serves in the capacity as an Audit Committee with Ms. Macleod also serving as Committee Chair. With the exception of Mr. Sehnaoui, each member of the Audit Committee, satisfy, as determined by the full Board, the definition of independent director as established in the OTC Rules and all members are financially literate. In accordance with Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Board designated Ms. Macleod as the Audit Committee’s “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the applicable regulations promulgated by the SEC. The Audit Committee met with our Chief Financial Officer and with our independent registered public accounting firm and evaluated the responses by the Chief Financial Officer, both to the facts presented and to the judgments made by our independent registered public accounting firm.

Our full Board reviewed and discussed the matters required by United States auditing standards required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 with management and our independent registered public accounting firm. Our Board received the written disclosures and the letter from our independent registered public accounting firm required by Independence Standards Board No. 1, and our Board discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm's independence.

Compensation Committee

We currently do not have a compensation committee of the Board or a committee performing similar functions. It is the view of the Board that it is appropriate for us not to have such a committee because of our size and because the Board participates in the consideration of executive compensation. As such, the entire Board has the responsibility for developing and maintaining an executive compensation policy that creates a direct relationship between pay levels and corporate performance and returns to stockholders. The Board monitors the results of such policy to assure that the compensation payable to our executive officers provides overall competitive pay levels, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value, rewards superior performance, and is justified by the returns available to stockholders. The Board also has the ability to retain outside benefit consultants to assess compensation policies and adjust as recommended.

Additionally, the Board administers compensation plans in a manner consistent with the terms of such plans (including, as applicable, the granting of stock options, restricted stock, stock units and other awards, the review of performance goals established before the start of the relevant plan year, and the determination of performance compared to the goals at the end of the plan year). None of our executive officers served as a director or member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

We do not have a nominating committee. Our Board selects individuals to stand for election as members of the Board and does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our stockholders. Our Board has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when it considers a nominee for a position on the Board. As such, the entire Board has the responsibility for identifying and recommending candidates to fill vacant and newly created Board positions, setting corporate governance guidelines regarding director qualifications and responsibilities, and planning for senior management succession.

Currently, our full Board is required to review the qualifications and backgrounds of all directors and nominees (without regard to whether a nominee has been recommended by stockholders), as well as the overall composition of the Board, and recommend director candidates to be nominated for election at the annual meeting of stockholders, or, in the case of a vacancy on the Board, elect a new director to fill such vacancy. If stockholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our Board, they may do so by communicating directly with our Secretary at the address specified on the cover of this annual report. There has not been any change to the procedures that our stockholders may recommend nominees to our Board.

-7-

Independent Directors

The Board has determined that Mr. Dubois and Ms. Macleod are currently the Company’s independent directors as defined by the rules and regulations of the OTC Markets. Mr. Dubois and Ms. Macleod meet the independence standards established by the OTC Markets and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In addition, the Board has determined that of its current directors, Ms. Macleod satisfies the definition of an “audit committee financial expert” under SEC rules and regulations. These designations do not impose any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than those generally imposed as members of the Board, and the designation as an audit committee financial expert does not affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Board.

Board Role in Risk Assessment

Management, in consultation with outside professionals, as applicable, identifies risks associated with the Company’s operations, strategies and financial statements. Risk assessment is also performed through periodic reports received by the Board from management, counsel and the Company’s independent registered public accountants relating to risk assessment and management. Our Board of Directors meets privately in executive sessions with representatives of the Company’s independent registered public accountants. Our Board or Directors also provides risk oversight through its periodic reviews of the financial and operational performance of the Company.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

As permitted by Delaware law, the Company will indemnify its directors and officers against expenses and liabilities they incur to defend, settle, or satisfy any civil or criminal action brought against them on account of their being or having been Company directors or officers unless, in any such action, they are adjudged to have acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our Common Stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors, and greater-than-ten-percent stockholders are also required by the SEC to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file.

Based solely upon a review of these forms that were furnished to us, we believe that all reports required to be filed by these individuals and persons under Section 16(a) were filed during fiscal year 2021 and that such filings were timely.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have established a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) that applies to our officers, directors and employees. This Code contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics, and is intended to qualify as a “code of ethics” within the meaning of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. A copy of our Code is available online at www.trackgrp.com. Any amendments to or waivers from a provision of our Code that apply to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or persons performing similar functions and that relates to any element of the Code will be made available to the public at the aforementioned website.

Board Leadership Structure

In addition to Messrs. Cassell and Dubois’ leadership, the Board maintains effective independent oversight through a number of governance practices, including, open and direct communication with management, input on meeting agendas, and regular executive sessions.

Stockholder Communications

If you wish to communicate with the Board, you may send your communication in writing to: Secretary, Track Group, Inc., 200 E. 5th Avenue, Suite 100, Naperville, Illinois 60563. You must include your name and address in the written communication and indicate whether you are a stockholder of the Company. The Secretary will review any communication received from a stockholder, and all material and appropriate communications from stockholders will be forwarded to the appropriate director or directors or committee of the Board based on the subject matter.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain a talented team of executives. We seek to accomplish this goal in a way that rewards performance that is aligned with our stockholders’ long-term interests. We believe that our executive compensation program achieves this goal and is strongly aligned with the long-term interests of our stockholders.

Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are submitting a proposal to our stockholders for an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. This Proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, is a non-binding vote, but gives stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers.

Accordingly, the following resolution is submitted for stockholders for approval:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Track Group, Inc. approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of its named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, to be held on April 13, 2022, pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, the accompanying tabular disclosure regarding named executive officer compensation and the corresponding narrative disclosure and footnotes.

As an advisory vote, this Proposal is not binding. However, our Board of Directors, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this Proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for named executive officers.

Required Vote

The approval of this non-binding matter, advisory resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy or unless authority to vote is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this Proposal. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for this Proposal.

Board of Directors Recommendation

Our Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the advisory resolution above, approving of the compensation paid to our named executive officers.

Compensation Risks Assessment

As required by rules adopted by the SEC, management has assessed our compensation policies and practices with respect to all employees to determine whether risks arising from those policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. In doing so, management considered various features and elements of the compensation policies and practices that discourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking. As a result of the assessment, we have determined that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have material adverse effects.

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL OF THE 2022 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

General

On February 16, 2022, our Board of Directors unanimously approved the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A. subject to stockholder approval.

If approved at the Annual Meeting, our 2022 Plan will supersede and replace the Company’s 2012 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and no new awards will be granted under the 2012 Plan thereafter. Any awards outstanding under the 2012 Plan on the date of approval of the 2022 Plan will remain subject to the 2022 Plan. Upon approval of our 2022 Plan, all shares of Common Stock remaining authorized and available for issuance under the 2012 Plan and any shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2012 Plan that subsequently expire, terminate, or are surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of shares will automatically become available for issuance under our 2022 Plan.

Nature and Purposes of the 2022 Plan

The purposes of the 2022 Plan are to enhance our ability to attract and retain highly qualified officers, non-employee directors, key employees and consultants, and to motivate those service providers to serve the Company and to expend maximum effort to improve our business results and earnings by providing to those service providers an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in our operations and future success. The 2022 Plan also will allow us to promote greater ownership in our Company by the service providers in order to align the service providers’ interests more closely with the interests of our stockholders. Awards granted under the 2022 Plan are designed to qualify for special tax treatment under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

Key Features

The following features of the 2022 Plan are intended to align the interests of our grantees receiving awards under the 2022 Plan with the interest of our stockholders:

●

Limitation on terms of stock options and stock appreciation rights. The maximum term of each stock option and stock appreciation right (“SAR”) is ten years.

●

No repricing or grant of discounted stock options. The 2022 Plan does not permit the repricing of options or SARs either by amending an existing award or by substituting a new award at a lower price. The 2022 Plan prohibits the granting of stock options or SARs with an exercise price less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.

●

No liberal share recycling. Shares used to pay the exercise price or withholding taxes related to an outstanding award and unissued shares resulting from the net settlement of outstanding options and SARs do not become available for issuance as future awards under the plan.

●

Minimum vesting requirements. The 2022 Plan includes minimum vesting requirements. No equity-based awards may vest earlier than six months after grant. This requirement does not apply to any (i) substitute awards resulting from acquisitions, and (ii) shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash incentive compensation under any applicable plan or program of the Company. In addition, the minimum vesting requirement does not apply to the Board’s discretion to provide for accelerated exercisability or vesting of any award in cases of death or disability.

●

No Single-Trigger Acceleration. Under the 2022 Plan, we do not automatically accelerate vesting of awards in connection with a change in control of the Company.

●

Dividends. We do not pay dividends or dividend equivalents on stock options, SARs or other unearned awards, whether time- or performance-vesting.

Summary of the 2022 Plan

The principal features of the 2022 Plan are summarized below. The following summary of the 2022 Plan does not purport to be a complete description of all of the provisions of the 2022 Plan. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2022 Plan, which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A.

-14-

Eligibility

Awards may be granted under the 2022 Plan to officers, employees and consultants of our Company and our subsidiaries and to our non-employee directors. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of our Company or one of our subsidiaries. As of February 14, 2022, approximately 80 individuals were eligible to receive awards under the 2022 Plan, including three non-employee directors.

Administration

The 2022 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or in absence of a Compensation Committee, by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee, or Board of Directors, in its discretion, selects the individuals to whom awards may be granted, the time or times at which such awards are granted, and the terms of such awards. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Number of Authorized Shares

A total of 500,000 shares of Common Stock are authorized for issuance under the 2022 Plan, which represents approximately 3.5% of the fully diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date. In addition, any awards then outstanding under the Prior Plan will remain subject to and be paid under the Prior Plan and any shares then subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan that subsequently expire, terminate, or are surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of shares will automatically become available for issuance under the 2022 Plan. Up to 500,000 shares may be granted under the 2022 Plan as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code. The shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2022 Plan will consist of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares, and shares purchased on the open market or otherwise.

If any award is canceled, terminates, expires or lapses for any reason prior to the issuance of shares or if shares are issued under the 2022 Plan and thereafter are forfeited to us, the shares subject to such awards and the forfeited shares will again be available for grant under the 2022 Plan. In addition, the following items will not count against the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for grant under the 2022 Plan:

●

the payment in cash of dividends or dividend equivalents under any outstanding award;

●

any award that is settled in cash rather than by issuance of shares of common stock; and

●

any awards granted in assumption of or in substitution for awards previously granted by an acquired company.

Shares tendered or withheld to pay the option exercise price or tax withholding for any award (including restricted stock and restricted stock units) will continue to count against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for grant under the 2022 Plan. In addition, the total number of shares covering stock-settled SARs or net-settled options will be counted against the pool of available shares, not just the net shares issued upon exercise. Any shares of Common Stock repurchased by us with cash proceeds from the exercise of options will not be added back to the pool of shares available for grant under the 2022 Plan.

Adjustments

If certain changes in the common stock occur by reason of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in stock, or other increase or decrease in the common stock without our receipt of consideration, or if there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by us, we will equitably adjust the number and kind of securities for which stock options and other stock-based awards may be made under the 2022 Plan. In addition, if there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by us, we will equitably adjust the number and kind of securities subject to any outstanding awards and the exercise price of any outstanding stock options or SARs.

-15-

Types of Awards

The 2022 Plan permits the granting of any or all of the following types of awards:

●

Stock Options. Stock options entitle the holder to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock at a specified price (the exercise price), subject to the terms and conditions of the stock option grant. The Compensation Committee may grant either incentive stock options, which must comply with Section 422 of the Code, or nonqualified stock options. The Compensation Committee sets exercise prices and terms, except that stock options must be granted with an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant (excluding stock options granted in connection with assuming or substituting stock options in acquisition transactions). Unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, fair market value means, as of a given date, the closing price of the Common Stock. (The fair market value of a share of our Common Stock as of the Record Date was $1.25 per share.) At the time of grant, the Compensation Committee determines the terms and conditions of stock options, including the quantity, exercise price, vesting periods, term (which cannot exceed ten years) and other conditions on exercise.

●

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant SARs as a right in tandem with the number of shares underlying stock options granted under the 2022 Plan or as a freestanding award. Upon exercise, SARs entitle the holder to receive payment per share in stock or cash, or in a combination of stock and cash, equal to the excess of the share’s fair market value on the date of exercise over the grant price of the SAR. The grant price of a tandem SAR is equal to the exercise price of the related stock option and the grant price for a freestanding SAR is determined by the compensation committee in accordance with the procedures described above for stock options. Exercise of a SAR issued in tandem with a stock option will reduce the number of shares underlying the related stock option to the extent of the SAR exercised. The term of a freestanding SAR cannot exceed ten years, and the term of a tandem SAR cannot exceed the term of the related stock option.

●

Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Other Stock-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant awards of restricted stock, which are shares of Common Stock subject to specified restrictions, and restricted stock units, which represent the right to receive shares of the Common Stock in the future. These awards may be made subject to repurchase, forfeiture or vesting restrictions at the Compensation Committee’s discretion. The restrictions may be based on continuous service with the Company or the attainment of specified performance goals, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Stock units may be paid in stock or cash or a combination of stock and cash, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may also grant other types of equity or equity-based awards subject to the terms of the 2022 Plan and any other terms and conditions determined by the Compensation Committee.

●

Performance Awards. The Compensation Committee may condition the grant, exercise, vesting, or settlement of any award on such performance conditions as it may specify. We refer to these awards as “performance awards.” The Compensation Committee may select such business criteria or other performance measures as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions.

Minimum Vesting Requirements

No equity-based awards granted under the 2022 Plan shall vest earlier than six months from the date the award is granted, excluding, for this purpose, any (i) substitute awards, and (ii) shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash incentive compensation under any applicable plan or program of the Company. The foregoing restriction does not apply to the Compensation Committee’s discretion to provide for accelerated exercisability or vesting of any award in cases of death or disability.

-16-

No Repricing

Without stockholder approval, the Compensation Committee is not authorized to:

●

lower the exercise or grant price of a stock option or SAR after it is granted, except in connection with certain adjustments to our corporate or capital structure permitted by the 2022 Plan, such as stock splits;

●

take any other action that is treated as a repricing under generally accepted accounting principles; or

●

cancel a stock option or SAR at a time when its exercise or grant price exceeds the fair market value of the underlying stock, in exchange for cash, another stock option or SAR, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other equity award, unless the cancellation and exchange occur in connection with a change in capitalization or other similar change.

Claw Back

All cash and equity awards granted under the 2022 Plan will be subject to claw back, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, reduction, or other similar action in accordance with the terms of any Company claw back or similar policy or any applicable law related to such actions, as may be in effect from time to time.

Transferability

Awards are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, except that in certain instances transfers may be made to or for the benefit of designated family members of the participant for no value.

Change in Control

In the event of a change in control of the Company, and the grantee’s employment with the Company is involuntarily terminated within six months of the date of consummation of such change in control (an “Involuntary Termination”), the Compensation Committee may accelerate the time period relating to the exercise of any award. In addition, the Compensation Committee may take other action, including (a) providing for the purchase of any award for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise of such award had the award been currently exercisable, (b) adjusting the terms of the award in a manner determined by the compensation committee to reflect the change in control, or (c) causing an award to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by another entity with appropriate adjustments to be made regarding the number and kind of shares and exercise prices of the award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a change in control of the Company, which change in control results in the Company ceasing to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, or such successor corporation is not a reporting company under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate the time period relating to the exercise or vesting of the award notwithstanding the fact that an Involuntary Termination has not occurred. “Change in control” is defined under the 2022 Plan and requires consummation of the applicable transaction.

Term, Termination and Amendment of the 2022 Plan

Unless earlier terminated by the Board of Directors, the 2022 Plan will terminate, and no further awards may be granted, ten years after the date on which it is approved by stockholders. The board may amend, suspend or terminate the 2022 Plan at any time, except that, if required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment. The amendment, suspension or termination of the 2022 Plan or the amendment of an outstanding award generally may not, without a participant’s consent, materially impair the participant’s rights under an outstanding award.

New Plan Benefits

A new plan benefits table for the 2022 Plan and the benefits or amounts that would have been received by or allocated to participants under the 2022 Plan for the year ended December 31, 2021 if the 2022 Plan were then in effect, as described in the federal proxy rules, are not provided, because, except as noted below, all awards made under the 2022 Plan will be made at the Compensation Committee’s discretion, subject to the terms of the 2022 Plan. Therefore, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated under the 2022 Plan generally are not determinable at this time.

-17-

Federal Income Tax Information

The following is a brief summary of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the 2022 Plan generally applicable to us and to participants in the 2022 Plan who are subject to U.S. federal taxes. The summary is based on the Code, applicable Treasury Regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, each as in effect on the date of this Proxy Statement, and is, therefore, subject to future changes in the law, possibly with retroactive effect. The summary is general in nature and does not purport to be legal or tax advice. Furthermore, the summary does not address issues relating to any U.S. gift or estate tax consequences or the consequences of any state, local or foreign tax laws.

Nonqualified Stock Options. A participant generally will not recognize taxable income upon the grant or vesting of a nonqualified stock option with an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant and no additional deferral feature. Upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, a participant generally will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares underlying the stock option on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the stock option. When a participant sells the shares, the participant will have short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be, equal to the difference between the amount the participant received from the sale and the tax basis of the shares sold. The tax basis of the shares generally will be equal to the greater of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date or the exercise price of the stock option.

Incentive Stock Options. A participant generally will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of an incentive stock option. If a participant exercises an incentive stock option during employment or within three months after employment ends (one year in the case of permanent and total disability), the participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of exercise for regular U.S. federal income tax purposes (although the participant generally will have taxable income for alternative minimum tax purposes at that time as if the stock option were a nonqualified stock option). If a participant sells or otherwise disposes of the shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option after the later of (a) one year from the date the participant exercised the option and (b) two years from the grant date of the stock option, the participant generally will recognize long-term capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount the participant received in the disposition and the exercise price of the stock option. If a participant sells or otherwise disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option before these holding period requirements are satisfied, the disposition will constitute a “disqualifying disposition,” and the participant generally will recognize taxable ordinary income in the year of disposition equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price of the stock option (or, if less, the excess of the amount realized on the disposition of the shares over the exercise price of the stock option). The balance of the participant’s gain on a disqualifying disposition, if any, will be taxed as short-term or long-term capital gain, as the case may be.

With respect to both nonqualified stock options and incentive stock options, special rules apply if a participant uses shares of Common Stock already held by the participant to pay the exercise price or if the shares received upon exercise of the stock option are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture by the participant.

Stock Appreciation Rights. A participant generally will not recognize taxable income upon the grant or vesting of a SAR with a grant price at least equal to the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant and no additional deferral feature. Upon the exercise of a SAR, a participant generally will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares underlying the SAR on the date of exercise and the grant price of the SAR.

Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Awards. A participant generally will not have taxable income upon the grant of restricted stock, restricted stock units or performance awards. Instead, the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time of vesting or payout equal to the fair market value (on the vesting or payout date) of the shares or cash received minus any amount paid. For restricted stock only, a participant may instead elect to be taxed at the time of grant.

Other Stock or Cash-Based Awards. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of other stock or cash-based awards will depend upon the specific terms of each award.

Tax Consequences to Us. In the foregoing cases, we generally will be entitled to a deduction at the same time, and in the same amount, as a participant recognizes ordinary income, subject to limitations imposed under the Code.

Section 409A. We intend that awards granted under the 2022 Plan comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code, but make no representation or warranty to that effect.

Tax Withholding. We are authorized to deduct or withhold from any award granted or payment due under the 2022 Plan, or require a participant to remit to us, the amount of any withholding taxes due in respect of the award or payment and to take such other action as may be necessary to satisfy all obligations for the payment of applicable withholding taxes. We are not required to issue any shares of Common Stock or otherwise settle an award under the 2022 Plan until all tax withholding obligations are satisfied.

Required Vote

The approval of the 2022 Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy or unless authority to vote is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this Proposal. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for this Proposal.

Board of Directors Recommendation

Our Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the resolution above, approving the adoption of the 2022 Plan.

Such procedures govern the ways in which the Audit Committee pre-approved, and the full Board of Directors now pre-approves, audit and various categories of non-audit services that the auditor provides to the Company. Services that have not received pre-approval must receive specific approval of the full Board for fiscal 2021.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Auditor Independence

Our Audit Committee and the full Board of Directors considered that the work done for us in fiscal year 2021 and 2020, respectively, by Eide Bailly was compatible with maintaining Eide Bailly’s independence.

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

Date: February 16, 2022

The full Board, serving in the capacity of the Company’s Audit Committee, has reviewed and discussed with management and Eide Bailly, LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, the audited consolidated financial statements in the Track Group, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021. The Board has also discussed with Eide Bailly, LLP those matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”).

Eide Bailly, LLP also provided the Board with the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent auditor’s communication with the Board concerning independence. The Board has discussed with the registered public accounting firm their independence from our Company.

Based on its discussions with management and the registered public accounting firm, and its review of the representations and information provided by management and the registered public accounting firm, including as set forth above, the Board determined that the audited financial statements should be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021.

The information contained above under the caption “Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors” shall not be deemed to be soliciting material or to be filed with the SEC, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any future filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference into such filing.

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is necessary to ratify the appointment of Eide Bailly, LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” will not be voted, although it will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of the Proposal. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a vote against this Proposal. A broker or other nominee will generally have discretionary authority to vote on this Proposal because it is considered a routine matter, and therefore we do not expect broker non-votes with respect to this Proposal. However, any broker non-votes received will have no effect on the outcome of this Proposal.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2023 ANNUAL MEETING

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, stockholder proposals to be included in our next proxy statement must be received by us at our principal executive offices no later than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. A stockholder proposal not included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be ineligible for presentation at the meeting unless the stockholder gives timely notice of the proposal in writing to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company and otherwise complies with the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws. To be timely, the Bylaws provide that the Company must have received the stockholder’s notice not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days in advance of the date the proxy statement was released to stockholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting of stockholders. However, if the date of the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is changed by more than 30 days from the date of this year’s Annual Meeting, the Company must receive the stockholder’s notice no later than the close of business on (i) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting and (ii) the seventh day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

PAYMENT OF COSTS

The expense of printing and mailing proxy materials and the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, solicitation may be made by proxy solicitors, directors, officers and other employees of the Company by personal interview, telephone, facsimile or other means. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or employees of the Company for such solicitation. The Company will reimburse brokerage firms and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of its Common Stock.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with account holders who are stockholders of the Company will be “householding” the Company’s proxy materials. A single set of the Company’s proxy materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate set of the Company’s proxy materials, please notify your broker or direct a written request to the Company, Attn: Investor Relations Department, 200 E. 5th Avenue, Suite 100, Naperville, Illinois 60563, or by calling (877) 260-2010. The Company undertakes to deliver promptly, upon any such oral or written request, a separate copy of its proxy materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of these documents was delivered. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Company’s proxy materials at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker, bank or other nominee, or contact the Company at the above address or phone number.

OTHER MATTERS

The Company knows of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that proxies solicited by this Proxy Statement, if validly signed, dated and returned to the Company, will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons holding the proxies.

Whether or not you intend to be present at the Annual Meeting, the Company urges you to return your signed proxy promptly.

The Board shall have the power and authority to delegate its responsibilities hereunder to the Committee, which shall have full authority to act in accordance with its charter, and with respect to the authority of the Board to act hereunder, all references to the Board shall be deemed to include a reference to the Committee, to the extent such power or responsibilities have been delegated. Except as otherwise may be required by applicable law, regulatory requirement or the articles of incorporation or the bylaws of the Company, the Board shall have full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, and shall have 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 Plan that the Board deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan. The Committee shall administer the Plan; provided that, the Board shall retain the right to exercise the authority of the Committee to the extent consistent with applicable law and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed. The interpretation and construction by the Board of any provision of the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive.

(i) designate Grantees;

(ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be made to a Grantee;

(iii) determine the number of shares of Stock to be subject to an Award;

(iv) establish the terms and conditions of each Award (including, but not limited to, the Option Price of any Option, the nature and duration of any restriction or condition (or provision for lapse thereof) relating to the vesting, exercise, transfer, or forfeiture of an Award or the shares of Stock subject thereto, and any terms or conditions that may be necessary to qualify Options as Incentive Stock Options);

(v) prescribe the form of each Award Agreement; and

(vi) subject to Section 16.13, amend, modify, or supplement the terms of any outstanding Award including the authority, in order to effectuate the purposes of the Plan, to modify Awards to foreign nationals or individuals who are employed outside the United States to recognize differences in local law, tax policy, or custom.

3.2 Clawbacks.

Awards shall be subject to the requirements of (i) Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (regarding recovery of erroneously awarded compensation) and any implementing rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) similar rules under the laws of any other jurisdiction, (iii) any compensation recovery policies adopted by the Company to implement any such requirements or (iv) any other compensation recovery policies as may be adopted from time to time by the Company, all to the extent determined by the Committee in its discretion to be applicable to a Grantee.

As provided in Section 1, no new awards shall be granted under the Predecessor Plan following the Effective Date. Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or shares purchased on the open market or otherwise, all as determined by the Company from time to time.

The full number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which an Option or SAR is granted shall count against the aggregate number of shares available for grant under the Plan.

In addition, if in accordance with the terms of the Plan, a Grantee satisfies any tax withholding requirement with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan for any Award (including Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units) by either tendering previously owned shares or having the Company withhold shares, then such shares surrendered to satisfy such tax withholding requirements shall continue to count against the aggregate number of shares available for grant under the Plan set forth in Section 4.1 above. Any shares of Common Stock repurchased by the Company with cash proceeds from the exercise of Options shall not be added back to the pool of shares available for grant under the Plan set forth in Section 4.1 above.

4.2.5 Substitute Awards

In the case of any Substitute Award, such Substitute Award shall not be counted against the number of shares reserved under the Plan.

No Awards shall be made after the Termination Date. The applicable terms of the Plan, and any terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted prior to the Termination Date shall survive the termination of the Plan and continue to apply to such Awards. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Grantee, materially impair rights or obligations under any Award theretofore awarded.

The Board shall have the right, in its discretion, to make Awards in substitution or exchange for any other award under another plan of the Company, any Affiliate, or any business entity to be acquired by the Company or an Affiliate. In addition, Awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of the Company or any Affiliate, in which the value of Stock subject to the Award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation (for example, Restricted Stock Units or Restricted Stock).

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, (i) prior to the date the Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company as provided herein, or (ii) after the occurrence of an event which results in termination of the Option.

(ii) the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

10. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made all or in part through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shares shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price or Purchase Price for Restricted Stock has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise or surrender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the right to make payment in the form of already owned shares of Stock may be authorized only at the time of grant.

11.3 Cashless Exercise.

With respect to an Option only (and not with respect to Restricted Stock), to the extent permitted by law and to the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price may be made all or in part by (i) delivery (on a form acceptable to the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 16.3; or (ii) by reducing the number of shares of Stock being purchased pursuant to such exercise by the number of such shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 16.3.

11.4 Other Forms of Payment.

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made in any other form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules, including, but not limited to, the Company’s withholding of shares of Stock otherwise due to the exercising Grantee.

Other Stock-based Awards may be granted in lieu of other cash or other compensation to which a Service Provider is entitled from the Company or may be used in the settlement of amounts payable in shares of Common Stock under any other compensation plan or arrangement of the Company. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the sole and complete authority to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of such Awards. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, any such Award shall be confirmed by an Award Agreement, which shall contain such provisions as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of this Plan with respect to such Award.

12.2 Terms of Other Stock-Based Awards.

Any Common Stock subject to Awards made under this Section 12 may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.

A-9

13. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

13.1 General.

The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising an Option, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to an Award upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Award unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Award. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any Option or the delivery of any shares of Stock underlying an Award, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Award, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be exercisable until the shares of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.

13.2 Rule 16b-3.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Awards and the grant or exercise of Awards to executive officers and directors hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Board or Committee does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board, and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Board may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement.

14. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

14.1 Changes in Stock.

If (i) the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date or (ii) there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by the Company, the number and kinds of shares for which grants of Awards may be made under the Plan shall be equitably adjusted by the Company; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A. In addition, in the event of any such increase or decrease in the number of outstanding shares or other transaction described in clause (ii) above, the number and kind of shares for which Awards are outstanding and the Option Price per share of outstanding Options and SAR Exercise Price per share of outstanding SARs shall be equitably adjusted; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A.

14.2 Effect of Certain Transactions.

Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement and subject to the provisions of Section 14.3, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Plan and the Awards issued hereunder shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms, except that following a Corporate Transaction either (i) each outstanding Award shall be treated as provided for in the agreement entered into in connection with the Corporate Transaction or (ii) if not so provided in such agreement, each Grantee shall be entitled to receive in respect of each share of Common Stock subject to any outstanding Awards, upon exercise or payment or transfer in respect of any Award, the same number and kind of stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration that each holder of a share of Common Stock was entitled to receive in the Corporate Transaction in respect of a share of Common stock (subject to any necessary rounding to comply with Section 409A or Section 422 of the Code with respect to any Incentive Stock Option); provided, however, that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, such stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration shall remain subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria which were applicable to the Awards prior to such Corporate Transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the treatment of outstanding Options and SARs pursuant to this Section 14.2 in connection with a Corporate Transaction in which the consideration paid or distributed to the Company’s stockholders is not entirely shares of common stock of the acquiring or resulting corporation may include the cancellation of outstanding Options and SARs upon consummation of the Corporate Transaction as long as, at the election of the Committee, (i) the holders of affected Options and SARs have been given a period of at least fifteen days prior to the date of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction to exercise the Options or SARs (to the extent otherwise exercisable) or (ii) the holders of the affected Options and SARs are paid (in cash or cash equivalents) in respect of each Share covered by the Option or SAR being canceled an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the per share price paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction (the value of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) over the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt, (1) the cancellation of Options and SARs pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence may be effected notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan or any Award Agreement and (2) if the amount determined pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is zero or less, the affected Option or SAR may be cancelled without any payment therefore. The treatment of any Award as provided in this Section 14.2 shall be conclusively presumed to be appropriate for purposes of Section 14.1.

14.3 Change in Control

14.3.1 Consequences of a Change in Control

In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, and the Grantee’s employment with the Company is involuntarily terminated within six (6) months of the date of consummation of such Change in Control (an “Involuntary Termination”), the Board, in its discretion, may, at any time an Award is granted, or at any time thereafter, (i) accelerate the time period relating to the exercise or vesting of the Award; or (ii) take one or more of the following actions, which may vary among individual Grantees: (A) provide for the purchase of the Award for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise or vesting of the Award (less any applicable Option Price or SAR Exercise Price in the cash of Options and SARs); (B) adjust the terms of the Awards in a manner determined by the Board to reflect the Change in Control; (C) cause the Awards to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by another entity, through the continuance of the Plan and the assumption of outstanding Awards, or the substitution for such Awards of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and exercise prices, in which event the Plan and such Awards, or the new options and rights substituted therefor, shall continue in the manner and under the terms so provided; (D) accelerate the time at which Options or SARs then outstanding may be exercised so that such Options and SARs may be exercised for a limited period of time on or before a specified date fixed by the Board, after which specified date, all unexercised Options and SARs shall terminate; or (E) make such other provision as the Board may consider equitable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, which Change in Control results in the Company ceasing to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, or such successor corporation is not a reporting company under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, the Board may, in its discretion, accelerate the time period relating to the exercise or vesting of the Award notwithstanding the fact that an Involuntary Termination has not occurred.

A-11

14.3.2 Change in Control Defined

Except as may otherwise be defined in an Award Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any Person or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) of the Beneficial Ownership of more than fifty percent of the outstanding securities of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, except for a transaction the principal purpose of which is to change the state in which the Company is incorporated; (iii) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (i) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or (v) any reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but in which securities possessing more than fifty percent of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities are transferred to a Person or Persons different from the Persons holding those securities immediately prior to such merger; provided, however, a Change in Control shall not mean any event in which a stockholder of the Company just prior to the consummation of such Change in Control beneficially owns in excess of forty percent of the outstanding securities of the Company and such stockholder immediately after consummation of such Change in Control beneficially owns in excess of fifty percent of the such securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that an Award hereunder is subject to the requirements of Section 409A and payable upon a Change in Control, the Company will not be deemed to have undergone a Change in Control unless the Company is deemed to have undergone a “change in control event” pursuant to the definition of such term in Section 409A.

14.4 Adjustments

Adjustments under this Section 14 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share.

15. NO LIMITATIONS ON COMPANY

The making of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

16. TERMS APPLICABLE GENERALLY TO AWARDS GRANTED UNDER THE PLAN

16.1 Disclaimer of Rights.

No provision in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate, or to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, no Award granted under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Grantee, so long as such Grantee continues to be a Service Provider. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any amounts to a third party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any Grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan.

16.2 Nonexclusivity of the Plan.

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or particular individuals), including, without limitation, the granting of stock options as the Board in its discretion determines desirable.

A-12

16.3 Withholding Taxes.

The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, shall 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 (i) with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award, (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option or SAR, or (iii) otherwise due in connection with an Award. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or the Affiliate may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, or the Company may require such obligations (up to maximum statutory rates) to be satisfied, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Affiliate to withhold the number of shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee as may be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations (up to maximum statutory rates). The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or the Affiliate as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 16.3 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.

16.4 Captions.

The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement.

16.5 Other Provisions.

Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict between the terms of an employment agreement and the Plan, the terms of the employment agreement govern.

16.6 Number and Gender.

With respect to words used in this Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, etc., as the context requires.

16.7 Severability.

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.

16.8 Governing Law.

The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law, and applicable Federal law.

16.9 Section 409A.

The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable laws require otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six (6) month period immediately following the Grantee’s Separation from Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of the Grantee’s Separation from Service (or the Grantee’s death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on any Grantee under Section 409A and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any Grantee for such tax or penalty.

A-13

16.10 Separation from Service.

The Board shall determine the effect of a Separation from Service upon Awards, and such effect shall be set forth in the appropriate Award Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board may provide in the Award Agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, the actions that will be taken upon the occurrence of a Separation from Service, including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination, depending upon the circumstances surrounding the Separation from Service.

16.11 Transferability of Awards.

16.11.1 Transfers in General.

Except as provided in Section 16.11.2, no Award shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only the Grantee personally (or the Grantee’s personal representative) may exercise rights under the Plan.

16.11.2 Family Transfers.

If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Award (other than Incentive Stock Options) to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 16.11.2, a “not for value” transfer is a transfer which is (i) a gift, (ii) a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights; or (iii) a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty percent of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in that entity. Following a transfer under this Section 16.11.2, any such Award shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred Awards are prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 16.11.2 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

16.12 Dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights.

If specified in the Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award (other than Options or SARs) may be entitled to receive dividends or dividend equivalents with respect to the Common Stock or other securities covered by an Award. The terms and conditions of a dividend equivalent right may be set forth in the Award Agreement. Dividend equivalents credited to a Grantee may be reinvested in additional shares of Stock or other securities of the Company at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date that such dividend was paid to stockholders, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in no event will dividends or dividend equivalents vest or otherwise be paid out prior to the time that the underlying Award (or portion thereof) has vested and, accordingly, will be subject to cancellation and forfeiture if such Award does not vest (including both time-based and performance-based Awards).

16.13 No Repricing. Subject to Section 14.1, the Committee shall not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, (a) authorize the amendment of any outstanding Option or SAR to reduce its exercise price per Share, or (b) cancel any Option or SAR in exchange for cash or another Award when the per share exercise price for such Option or SAR exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares.

As approved by the Board of Directors on February 16, 2022.
