Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, we continue to monitor the situation regarding COVID-19 closely, taking into account guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. For the health and well-being of our stockholders, directors, management and associates, the Company is planning for the possibility that there may be limitations on attending the Annual Meeting in person, or the Company may decide to hold the Annual Meeting on a different date, at a different location or by means of remote communication (i.e., a “virtual meeting”). The Annual Meeting is being held for the following purposes:

The foregoing items of business are more fully described in the Proxy Statement that is attached and made a part of this Notice. Only stockholders of record of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), stockholders of record of the Company’s Series C Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), and stockholders of record of the Company’s Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), at the close of business on October 26, 2023 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

All stockholders who are record or beneficial owners of shares of Common Stock, the one record holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the one record holder of shares of Series F Preferred Stock on the Record Date are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting in person. Your vote is important regardless of the number of shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series F Preferred Stock that you own. Only record or beneficial owners of the Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series F Preferred Stock as of the Record Date may attend the Annual Meeting in person. When you arrive at the Annual Meeting, you must present photo identification, such as a driver’s license. Beneficial owners also must provide evidence of stockholdings as of the Record Date, such as a recent brokerage account or bank statement.

We have elected to take advantage of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow issuers to furnish proxy materials to their stockholders on the Internet. We believe that the rules will allow us to provide our stockholders with the information they need, while lowering the costs of delivery and reducing the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROXY STATEMENT FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

In this proxy statement (“Proxy Statement”), LogicMark, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is referred to as “LogicMark,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our.”

Information Concerning the Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting

Proxies in the form enclosed with this Proxy Statement are being solicited by our board of directors (the “Board”) for use at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at 10.00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on December 20, 2023 in the offices of Sullivan & Worcester LLP at 1633 Broadway, 32nd Floor, New York, NY 10019, and at any adjournment thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, we continue to monitor the situation regarding COVID-19 closely, taking into account guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. For the health and well-being of our stockholders, directors, management and associates, the Company is planning for the possibility that there may be limitations on attending the Annual Meeting in person, or the Company may decide to hold the Annual Meeting on a different date, at a different location or by means of remote communication (i.e., a “virtual meeting”). Your vote is very important. For this reason, our Board is requesting that you permit your shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), your shares of Series C Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), and/or your shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), to be represented at the Annual Meeting by the proxies named on the enclosed proxy card. This Proxy Statement contains important information for you to consider when deciding how to vote on the matters brought before the Annual Meeting. Please read it carefully.

This Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2023, is being made available to stockholders on or about November 7, 2023. On or about November 7, 2023, we expect to provide a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “E-Proxy Notice”) to you by mail, unless you previously requested for these materials to be delivered to you in paper or by email. We are using the “e-proxy” rules adopted by the SEC to furnish proxy materials to stockholders through a “notice only” model using the Internet. This allows us to reduce costs by delivering to stockholders an E-Proxy Notice and providing online access to the documents. If you received an E-Proxy Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of our proxy materials unless you specifically request one as set forth above. The E-Proxy Notice includes instructions for viewing our 2022 Annual Report and the Proxy Statement online and for voting via the Internet, by telephone or by mail, along with the required Control Number (the Control Number is unique to each account). The E-Proxy Notice also includes instructions on how to request paper materials. If you requested printed versions of our proxy materials by mail, these printed proxy materials also include a proxy card for the Annual Meeting. Copies of our Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, and 2022 Annual Report are also available at https://investors.logicmark.com/financial-information/sec-filings.

Voting materials, which include this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card, will be first mailed to stockholders on or about November 7, 2023.

Only stockholders of record of our shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock as of the close of business on October 26, 2023 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, 1,419,017 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, 200 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding held one record holder and 173,333 shares of Series F Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding held by one record holder. Holders of shares of Common Stock and the holder of the shares Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to one (1) vote per share for each share of Common Stock and one (1) vote per share of Series C Preferred Stock held by them, as applicable. The holder of shares of Series F Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote on an as-converted to Common Stock basis with respect to 3,325 votes for shares of Series F Preferred Stock held by such holder (for further information, please see the section below titled “Security Ownership Of Certain Beneficial Owners And Management”). Stockholders may vote in person or by proxy; however, granting a proxy does not in any way affect a stockholder’s right to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. Any stockholder giving a proxy has the right to revoke that proxy by (i) filing a later-dated proxy or a written notice of revocation with us at our principal office at any time before the original proxy is exercised or (ii) attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Chia-Lin Simmons is named as attorney-in-fact in the proxy. Ms. Simmons is our Chief Executive Officer and will vote all shares represented by properly executed proxies returned in time to be counted at the Annual Meeting, as described below under “Voting Procedures and Vote Required.” Where a vote has been specified in the proxy with respect to the matters identified in the Notice of the Annual Meeting, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with those voting specifications. If no voting instructions are indicated, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board on all matters, and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote before the Annual Meeting.

The stockholders will consider and vote upon (i) a proposal to elect six (6) members of our Board, each to serve until the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until each of their respective successors are elected and qualified or until each of their earlier resignation or removal (“Proposal No. 1”); and (ii) a proposal to ratify the Board’s selection of BPM LLP as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 (“Proposal No. 2”). Stockholders also will consider and act upon such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Voting Procedures and Vote Required

Ms. Simmons will vote all shares represented by properly executed proxies returned in time to be counted at the Annual Meeting. The presence, in person or by proxy, of at least one-third (1/3) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, in the aggregate, entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to establish a quorum for the transaction of business. Shares represented by proxies which contain an abstention and “broker non-vote” shares (described below) are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

All properly executed proxies delivered pursuant to this solicitation and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting as specified in such proxies.

Vote Required for Election of Directors (Proposal No. 1).

Our articles of incorporation (the “Articles of Incorporation”), does not authorize cumulative voting. Nevada law and our by-laws (the “By-laws”) provide that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of the shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, in the aggregate. This means that the six (6) candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Annual Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or shares present by proxy where the stockholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee will not be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality.

Vote Required for Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accountants (Proposal No. 2).    

Our By-laws provide that, on all matters (other than the election of directors and except to the extent otherwise required by our Articles of Incorporation, By-laws or applicable Nevada law), the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes cast by the holders of shares of stock entitled to vote will be required for approval. Accordingly, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of the shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, in the aggregate, outstanding on the Record Date and entitled to vote on the matter will be required to ratify the Board’s selection of BPM LLP as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

If you hold shares beneficially in street name and do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Generally, broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. Brokers that have not received voting instructions from their clients cannot vote on their clients’ behalf on “non-routine” proposals. Broker non-votes are not counted in tabulating the voting result for any particular proposal where the voting standard calls for the approval of “a plurality of the votes cast” and such shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote; however, broker non-votes are counted in tabulating the voting result for any particular proposal where the voting standard calls for the approval of “a majority of shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the matter,” and such shares that constitute broker non-votes are counted as “shares present” at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

The vote on Proposal No. 1 is considered “non-routine” and the vote on Proposal No. 2 is considered “routine”.

Abstentions are counted as “shares present” at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but will not be voted at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions only have an effect on the outcome of any matter being voted on that requires a certain level of approval based on our total voting stock outstanding. Thus, abstentions will have no effect on any of the proposals.

Votes at the Annual Meeting will be tabulated by one or more inspectors of election appointed by the Chief Executive Officer.

Stockholders will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights with respect to any matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

Delivery of Documents to Stockholders Sharing an Address

We will send only one copy of E-Proxy Notice to stockholders who share a single address unless we received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, the Company will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the E-Proxy Notice to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the E-Proxy Notice was delivered. You may make such a written or oral request by sending a written notification stating (i) your name, (ii) your shared address and (iii) the address to which the Company should direct the additional copy of the E-Proxy Notice to the Company at Corporate Secretary, 2801 Diode Lane, Louisville, KY 40299, telephone: (502) 442-7911, email: legal@logicmark.com.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth, as of October 26, 2023, information regarding beneficial ownership of our capital stock by:

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC’) and generally means that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power of that security, including securities that are exercisable for shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock within sixty (60) days of October 26, 2023. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the holders named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock shown that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable.

For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of our Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock held by each holder or group of holders named above, any shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock that such holder or holders has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days of October 26, 2023 is deemed to be outstanding, but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other holder. The presentation of the shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock on the following table reflects the Company’s reverse stock splits of its Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock that were effected on April 21, 2023. The inclusion herein of any shares of Common Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership. Unless otherwise identified, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o LogicMark, Inc., 2801 Diode Lane, Louisville, KY 40299.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

(Proposal No. 1)

The following individuals have been nominated as members of our Board, each to serve until the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, until each of their respective successors are elected and qualified or until each of their earlier resignation or removal. Pursuant to Nevada law and our By-laws, directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares cast by holders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. This means that the six (6) candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named or for persons other than the named nominees.

Following is information about each nominee, including biographical data for at least the last five (5) years. Should one or more of these nominees become unavailable to accept nomination or election as a director, the individuals named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote the shares that they represent for the election of such other persons as the Board may recommend, unless the Board reduces the number of directors. We have no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable or unwilling to serve if elected as a director.

Our Articles of Incorporation does not authorize cumulative voting. Nevada law and our By-laws provide that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares cast on the election of directors.

Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Annual Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or shares present by proxy where the stockholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee will not be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality.

At the Annual Meeting a vote will be taken on a proposal to approve the election of the six (6) director nominees.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS

A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE SIX (6) DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

The Board oversees our business affairs and monitors the performance of our management. In accordance with our corporate governance principles, the Board does not involve itself in day-to-day operations. The directors keep themselves informed through discussions with the Chief Executive Officer, other key executives and by reading the reports and other materials sent to them and by participating in Board and committee meetings. Our directors hold office until our next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until each of their respective successors are elected and qualified or until each of their earlier resignation or removal, or if for some other reason they are unable to serve in the capacity of director.

Director Independence

The Board currently consists of six (6) members: Chia-Lin Simmons, Robert Curtis, John Pettitt, Thomas Wilkinson, Carine Schneider and Barbara Gutierrez. All of our directors listed as nominees in Proposal No. 1 will serve until our next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until each of their respective successors are duly elected and qualified.

As we are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, our determination of the independence of directors is made using the definition of “independent director” contained in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). Our Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Pettitt, Dr. Curtis and Ms. Gutierrez are “independent directors”, as that term is defined in the Marketplace Rules of Nasdaq (the “Nasdaq Rules”).

Board Committees

Our Board has an audit committee (“Audit Committee”), a compensation committee (“Compensation Committee”) and a corporate governance and nomination committee (“Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee”). On September 28, 2023, each of the Audit, Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nomination Committees held a regularly scheduled meeting to approve and ratify their respective amended and restated committee charters, which each became effective as of September 28, 2022. The amended and restated Audit Committee Charter is attached hereto as Appendix A. The amended and restated Compensation Committee Charter is attached hereto as Appendix B. The amended and restated Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee is attached hereto as Appendix C. Additionally, each respective amended and restated charter can be found on our website at www.logicmark.com. Information contained on our website is not incorporated herein by reference. Each of the Board committees has the composition and responsibilities described below. As of October 31, 2023, the members of such committees are:

Audit Committee — Barbara Gutierrez*⁽¹⁾, Robert Curtis, John Pettitt and Thomas Wilkinson(1)

Compensation Committee — Robert Curtis, John Pettitt, Thomas Wilkinson, and Carine Schneider*

Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee — Robert Curtis*, Barbara Gutierrez, John Pettitt, and Carine Schneider

Audit Committee

We have an Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The members of our Audit Committee are Barbara Gutierrez, Robert Curtis, John Pettitt and Thomas Wilkinson. Mr. Pettitt, Dr. Curtis, Ms. Gutierrez and Mr. Wilkinson are each “independent” within the meaning of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and Nasdaq Rules. Our Board has determined that Ms. Gutierrez and Mr. Wilkinson shall serve as “audit committee financial experts”, as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. In addition, Ms. Gutierrez serves as Chairperson of our Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting process and oversees the audit of our financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include, among other matters:

In 2022, the Audit Committee held four electronic or virtual meetings, at which all of the members of the then current Audit Committee were present.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board that satisfies the applicable standards of Nasdaq.

Compensation Committee

The members of our Compensation Committee are Robert Curtis, John Pettitt, Thomas Wilkinson and Carine Schneider. Mr. Pettitt, Dr. Curtis, Mr. Wilkinson and Ms. Schneider are each “independent” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Rules. In addition, each member of our Compensation Committee qualifies as a “non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Our Compensation Committee assists the Board in the discharge of its responsibilities relating to the compensation of the members of the Board and our executive officers. Carine Schneider serves as Chairperson of our Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee’s compensation-related responsibilities include:

In 2022, the Compensation Committee held three electronic or virtual meetings, at which all of the members of the then current Compensation Committee were present.

The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted by our Board that satisfies the applicable standards of Nasdaq.

Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee

The members of our Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee are Robert Curtis, Barbara Gutierrez, John Pettitt and Carine Schneider. Dr. Curtis, Mr. Pettitt, and Mses. Gutierrez and Schneider are each “independent” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Rules. In addition, each member of our Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee qualifies as a “non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. One of the main purposes of the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee is to recommend to the Board nominees for election as directors and persons to be elected to fill any vacancies on the Board, develop and recommend a set of corporate governance principles and oversee the performance of the Board. Dr. Curtis serves as Chairman of our Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee.

The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee is responsible for, among other objectives, making recommendations to the Board regarding candidates for directorships; overseeing the evaluation of the Board; reviewing developments in corporate governance practices; developing a set of corporate governance guidelines; and reviewing and recommending changes to the charters of other Board committees. In addition, the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee is responsible for overseeing our corporate governance guidelines and reporting and making recommendations to the Board concerning corporate governance matters.

The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee has not adopted a formal policy with regard to consideration of director candidates recommended by security holders. For vacancies which are anticipated on the Board, the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee intends to seek out and evaluates potential candidates from a variety of sources that may include recommendations by security holders, members of management and the Board, consultants and others. The minimum qualifications for potential candidates for the Board include demonstrated business experience, decision-making abilities, personal integrity and a good reputation. While diversity is not a leading factor in the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee’s evaluation of potential candidates and there is no formal policy for considering diversity when nominating a potential director, it is a consideration that is evaluated along with other qualifications of potential candidates. In light of the foregoing, it is believed that a formal, written policy and procedure with regard to consideration of director candidates recommended by security holders is not necessary in order for the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee to perform its duties. The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee identifies and recommends to the Board individuals qualified to serve as directors of the Company, advises the Board with respect to its committees’ composition, oversees the evaluation of the Board, and oversees other matters of corporate governance.

The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee operates under a written charter adopted by our Board that satisfies the applicable standards of Nasdaq.

In 2022, the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee held one in-person meeting, at which all of the members of the then current Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee were present.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of the officers or directors of the Company.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our current directors or executive officers has, during the past ten (10) years:

Except as may be set forth in our discussion below in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Leadership Structure of the Board

The Board does not currently have a policy on whether the same person should serve as both the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board or, if the roles are separate, whether the Chairman should be selected from the non-employee directors or should be an employee. The Board believes that it should have the flexibility to make these determinations at any given point in time in the way that it believes best to provide appropriate leadership for the Company at that time. Chia-Lin Simmons serves as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and John Pettitt serves as Chairman of the Board. The Company does not have a lead independent director.

Risk Oversight

The Board oversees risk management directly and through its committees associated with their respective subject matter areas. Generally, the Board oversees risks that may affect the business of the Company as a whole, including operational matters. The Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and also discusses with management the Company’s financial statements, internal controls and other accounting and related matters. The Compensation Committee oversees certain risks related to compensation programs, and the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee oversees certain corporate governance risks. As part of their roles in overseeing risk management, these committees periodically report to the Board regarding briefings provided by management and advisors as well as the committees’ own analysis and conclusions regarding certain risks faced by the Company. Management is responsible for implementing the risk management strategy and developing policies, controls, processes and procedures to identify and manage risks.

Hedging Policy

The Company’s insider trading policy prohibits all officers, directors of the Company and its subsidiaries, any other persons designated from time to time by the CFO as being a “Company Insider,” as well as their immediate family members, from participating in hedging or monetization transactions, such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds, involving Company securities.

Employment Agreements

The disclosure on the shares of Common Stock in this “Employment Agreements” section reflects the Company’s reverse stock split of its Common Stock that was effected on April 21, 2023.

Chia-Lin Simmons

On June 14, 2021, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Chia-Lin Simmons (the “Prior Agreement”), pursuant to which she was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board, effective June 14, 2021, in consideration for an annual cash salary of $450,000 (“Base Salary”). The Prior Agreement provided for incentive bonuses as determined by the Board, a one-time sign-on bonus of $50,000, and employee benefits, including health and disability insurance, in accordance with the Company’s policies, and remains in effect until her employment with the Company is terminated.

Additionally, pursuant to the Prior Agreement and as a material inducement to her acceptance of employment with the Company, the Company offered Ms. Simmons a stock award of 13,328 shares of restricted Common Stock. Such stock award was approved by the Board’s compensation committee and the shares were issued in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) outside of our 2013 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) and our 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (“2017 SIP”), vesting over a four-year period commencing on October 15, 2021, with a quarter to vest on the anniversary of that date, and thereafter in quarterly amounts until such award has fully vested, so long as Ms. Simmons remains in the service of the Company.

On November 2, 2022, the Company executed an executive employment agreement (the “Simmons Agreement”) with Ms. Simmons, effective as of June 14, 2022, and which supersedes the Prior Agreement. The term of the Simmons Agreement commenced on June 14, 2022, and continues through and until August 31, 2025 (the “Term”), unless terminated on an earlier date pursuant to the terms set forth in the Simmons Agreement. Pursuant to the Simmons Agreement, Ms. Simmons will receive an annual base salary of $500,000 (the “Base Salary”) and will be eligible to receive an annual bonus as of such effective date (the “Annual Bonus”). The Annual Bonus will have a maximum amount of 100% of Ms. Simmons’ base salary and is contingent upon Ms. Simmons meeting certain annual goals (the “Annual Bonus Goals”) as approved by the Board. Following the close of each fiscal year, the Board’s compensation committee will determine the Annual Bonus within the guidance under the Annual Bonus Goals. The Simmons Agreement also provides that subject to the approval of the Board, Ms. Simmons will be granted restricted shares of Common Stock from time to time during the Term so that the aggregate number of such restricted shares of Common Stock held of record by Ms. Simmons at all times during the Term equals six percent (6%) of the Company’s aggregate issued and outstanding stock as of the applicable date of grant. The Simmons Agreement also provides for certain employee benefits, including health and disability insurance in accordance with the Company’s policies, an allowance up to $30,000 per year to be used for educational or coaching purposes and covers the cost to Ms. Simmons of her personal tax, financial planning, and wealth management services of up to $10,000 per year.

Pursuant to the Simmons Agreement, if the Board terminates Ms. Simmons’ employment with Cause, or she resigns from the Company without Good Reason (as defined in the Simmons Agreement), then the Company shall pay the Base Salary prorated through the date of termination, at the rate in effect at the time notice of termination is given, together with accrued but unused vacation pay. In addition, Ms. Simmons will retain all of the restricted shares of Common Stock granted pursuant to the Simmons Agreement that have vested as of the date of termination. The Board also may terminate Ms. Simmons without Cause upon sixty (60) days’ written notice. If Ms. Simmons terminates such employment with Good Reason, or such employment is terminated without Cause or due to Ms. Simmons’s death or disability, Ms. Simmons would be entitled to receive the greater of (i) the balance of Base Salary and benefits still owed, and (ii) salary continuation and COBRA coverage for twelve (12) months, and would also be entitled to the target Bonus (irrespective of Annual Bonus Goals) prorated up until the date of termination and accrued but unused vacation pay, payment of both of which will be made at the time of termination, and all unvested restricted shares of Common Stock granted pursuant to the Simmons Agreement will vest in full as of such date of termination.

Mark Archer

Effective July 15, 2021, the Board appointed Mr. Archer as Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In connection with the appointment, the Company entered into an agreement, effective July 15, 2021, with FLG Partners (the “FLG Agreement”), of which Mr. Archer is a partner, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay FLG Partners $500 per hour for its engagement of Mr. Archer’s services as Interim Chief Financial Officer. The FLG Agreement also requires the Company to indemnify Mr. Archer and FLG Partners in connection with Mr. Archer’s services to the Company. The FLG Agreement has an indefinite term and is terminable by the Company or FLG Partners upon 60 days’ prior written notice.

Effective February 15, 2022, the Board appointed Mr. Archer as permanent Chief Financial Officer. In connection with the appointment, the Company and FLG Partners entered into an amendment to the FLG Agreement, dated February 15, 2022 (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to amend the fee payable to FLG Partners pursuant to the FLG Agreement to $10,000 per week, to permit Mr. Archer to separately invoice the Company for administrative charges of $2,000 per month, payable to Mr. Archer only, and to the issuance of 6,470 restricted shares of Common Stock to Mr. Archer and 341 restricted shares of Common Stock to FLG Partners, a quarter of each such issuance to vest on July 15, 2022, with subsequent vesting at 6.25% for each three-month period thereafter. Mr. Archer did not receive any securities of the Company in connection with the FLG Agreement or the Amendment during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Other Compensation

We provide standard health insurance benefits to our executive officers, as we do with all other eligible employees. We believe these benefits are consistent with the broad-based employee benefits provided at the companies with whom we compete for talent and therefore are important to attracting and retaining qualified employees. Other than as described above, there were no post-employment compensation, pension or nonqualified deferred compensation benefits earned by our named executive officers during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. We do not have any pension or profit-sharing programs for the benefit of our directors, officers or other employees. The Board may recommend adoption of one or more such programs in the future.

We do sponsor a retirement plan intended to qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, containing a cash or deferred feature that is intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees working 20 hours or more on a consistent weekly basis, and who are on our payroll and who have attained at least 18 years of age are generally eligible to participate in the plan on the first day of employment, contingent upon completion of certain onboarding tasks. Participants may make pre-tax contributions to the plan from their eligible earnings up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit on pre-tax contributions under the Internal Revenue Code. Pre-tax contributions by participants and the income earned on those contributions are generally not taxable to participants until withdrawn. Participant contributions are held in trust as required by law. No minimum benefit is provided under the plan. An employee’s interest in his or her pre-tax deferrals is 100% vested when contributed. The plan provides for a discretionary employer matching contribution and a discretionary employer profit sharing contribution.

Outstanding Equity Awards at 2022 Fiscal Year End

The following table provides information relating to the vested and unvested option and stock awards held by our named executive officers as of December 31, 2022. Each award to each named executive officer is shown separately, with a footnote describing the award’s vesting schedule. The presentation of the option and stock awards on the following table reflects the Company’s reverse stock split of its Common Stock that was effected on April 21, 2023.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Other than as described below, except compensation arrangements, since the past two fiscal years, there have been no transactions, whether directly or indirectly, between us and any of the Company’s officers, directors, beneficial owners of more than 5% of outstanding shares of Common Stock or outstanding shares of a class of voting preferred stock, or their family members, that exceeded the lesser of (i) $120,000 or (ii) one percent (1%) of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two fiscal years. The disclosure relating to the shares of Common Stock under this “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” section reflects the reverse stock split of the Common Stock that was effected by the Company on April 21, 2023.

On January 8, 2021, the Company entered into a warrant amendment and exercise agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) with AIMF with respect to a Common Stock purchase warrant, dated April 4, 2019, previously issued by the Company to AIMF (the “Original Warrant”). In consideration for each exercise of the Original Warrant that occurred within 45 calendar days of the date of the Amendment Agreement, in addition to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon such exercise, the Company agreed to deliver to AIMF a new warrant to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon AIMF’s exercise of the Original Warrant, at an exercise price of $305 per share (the “New Warrant”). AIMF held an Original Warrant exercisable for up to 12,346 shares of Common Stock and fully exercised such warrant, resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Company of $3,765,432 the issuance of New Warrants exercisable for an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock.

The holders of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock had the right to vote with shares of Common Stock, on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, with respect to all matters on which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote, subject to any applicable beneficial ownership limitations. On August 16, 2021, the Company filed a certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware eliminating and cancelling all designations, rights, preferences and limitations of the Series E Preferred Stock, and all shares of Series E Preferred Stock resumed the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock of the Company. The February Offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $4 million, before deducting any offering expenses, and such investors participated equally with respect to the consideration paid and the number of securities received pursuant to the February Offering.

Effective August 11, 2021, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with GDMSAI, the holder of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, to settle an ongoing dispute between the parties (the “Dispute”) with regard to the payment of dividends under the Company’s Series C Certificate of Designations. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to pay $540,000 of dividends plus $55,000 of pre-judgement interest, but no post-judgement interest. The settlement was payable in tranches and the final payment was made by the Company to such holder in November 2021.

The holders of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock had the right to vote with shares of Common Stock, on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, with respect to all matters on which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote, subject to any applicable beneficial ownership limitations. The August Offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $4 million, before deducting any offering expenses.

On September 15, 2021, the Company closed an underwritten public offering (the “September Offering”) pursuant to which the Company issued an aggregate of (i) 139,438 shares of Common Stock, including 18,188 shares of Common Stock issued upon the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option and (ii) accompanying warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 139,438 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $99 per share, subject to certain adjustments, including warrants issued upon the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 18,188 shares of Common Stock, at a combined public offering price of $90 per share and accompanying warrant.

Our Audit Committee considers and approves or disapproves any related person transaction as required by Nasdaq regulations. The Audit Committee only approves those related party transactions that are on terms comparable to, or more beneficial to us than, those that could be obtained in arm’s length dealings with an unrelated third party.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock to file with the SEC the initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock. Such executive officers, directors and stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Specific due dates for such reports have been established by the SEC, and the Company is required to disclose in this Proxy Statement any failure to file such reports by such dates during fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. During such fiscal year, we believe that all reports required to be filed by such persons pursuant to Section 16(a) were filed on a timely basis, except for the following forms, due to a delay in obtaining a CIK for each such reporting person: one Form 3 filed by Mark Archer; one Form 3 filed by Barbara Gutierrez; and one Form 3 filed by John Pettitt.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The following Report of the Audit Committee (the “Audit Report”) does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Report by reference therein.

Role of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee’s primary responsibilities fall into three (3) broad categories:

First, the Audit Committee is charged with monitoring the preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by the Company’s management, including discussions with management and the Company’s outside auditors about draft annual financial statements and key accounting and reporting matters;

Second, the Audit Committee is responsible for matters concerning the relationship between the Company and its outside auditors, including recommending their appointment or removal; reviewing the scope of their audit services and related fees, as well as any other services being provided to the Company; and determining whether the outside auditors are independent (based in part on the annual letter provided to the Company pursuant to Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1); and

Third, the Audit Committee reviews financial reporting, policies, procedures, and internal controls of the Company.

The Audit Committee has implemented procedures to ensure that during the course of each fiscal year it devotes the attention that it deems necessary or appropriate to each of the matters assigned to it under the Audit Committee’s charter. In overseeing the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, the Audit Committee met with management and the Company’s outside auditors, including meetings with the Company’s outside auditors without management present, to review and discuss all financial statements prior to their issuance and to discuss significant accounting issues. Management advised the Audit Committee that all financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the Audit Committee discussed the statements with both management and the outside auditors. The Audit Committee’s review included discussion with the outside auditors of matters required to be discussed pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees).

With respect to the Company’s outside auditors, the Audit Committee, among other things, discussed with BPM LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2022, matters relating to its independence, including the disclosures made to the Audit Committee as required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees).

Recommendations of the Audit Committee. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Board of Directors approve the inclusion of the Company’s audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This Audit Report has been furnished by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

(Proposal No. 2)

BPM LLP (“BPM”) has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since June 17, 2022 and has been appointed by the Audit Committee of the Board to continue as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders will vote on a proposal to ratify this selection of an independent registered public accounting firm. If this ratification is not approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter, the Board will reconsider its selection of an independent registered public accounting firm.

BPM has no interest, financial or otherwise, in our Company. We do not currently expect a representative of Marcum to physically attend the Annual Meeting, however, it is anticipated that a BPM representative will be available to participate in the Annual Meeting via telephone in the event he or she wishes to make a statement, or in order to respond to appropriate questions.

Fees Paid to Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee retained BPM to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of internal controls as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023. For additional information concerning the Audit Committee and its activities with BPM, see “Audit Committee Report” contained in this Proxy Statement and “Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accountant” below.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accountant

Our Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm prior to the engagement of such firm with respect to such services. The Chairperson of the Audit Committee has been delegated the authority by such committee to pre-approve interim services by the independent registered public accounting firm other than the annual audit. The Chairperson of our Audit Committee must report all such pre-approvals to the entire Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting.

Vote Required and Recommendation

Our By-laws provide that, on all matters (other than the election of directors and except to the extent otherwise required by our Articles of Incorporation, By-laws or applicable Nevada law), the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes cast by the holders of shares of stock entitled to vote will be required for approval.

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

Role

The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of LogicMark, Inc. (the “Company”) assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibility for oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing, and reporting practices of the Company, and such other duties as directed by the Board. The Committee’s purpose is to oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company, the audits of the Company’s financial statements, the qualifications of the public accounting firm engaged as the Company’s independent auditor to prepare or issue an audit report on the financial statements of the Company as well as the independence of such firm, and the performance of the independent auditors. The Committee’s role includes a particular focus on the qualitative aspects of financial reporting to shareholders, the Company’s processes to manage business and financial risk, and compliance with significant applicable legal, ethical, and regulatory requirements. The Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent auditor. The Committee also prepares the Committee report that the Securities and Exchange Commission rules require to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement.

Membership

The membership of the Committee shall consist of at least three directors, all of whom shall be determined by the Board to be “independent” under the Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq Rules”) and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); provided that one director, who is not independent under the Nasdaq Rules applicable to Committee members, meets the criteria set forth in Section 10A(m)(3) under the Exchange Act and is not currently an executive officer, employee or family member of an executive officer, may be appointed to the Committee if the Board, under exceptional and limited circumstances, determines that such individual’s membership on the Committee is required by the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. If the Company relies on this exemption, it must include some additional disclosure in the proxy statement for the next annual meeting subsequent to such determination. A member appointed under this exception may not serve longer than two years and may not serve as chairperson of the Committee (“Chair”). Each member shall in the judgment of the Board have the ability to read and understand fundamental financial statements. At least one member of the Committee shall in the judgment of the Board be an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and at least one member (who may also serve as the audit committee financial expert) shall in the judgment of the Board meet the financial sophistication standard required by the Nasdaq Rules. The Board shall have the power to appoint the members of the Committee, including the Chair. In the event of a vacancy in the Chair and the Board does not appoint a Chair within a reasonable amount of time upon such vacancy, the Committee may select a Chair by majority vote if there is no objection from the Board. The Board may remove any member from the Committee at any time with or without cause.

Operations

The Committee shall meet at least four (4) times a year. Additional meetings may occur as the Committee or its Chair deems advisable. The Committee will cause to be kept adequate minutes of all its proceedings, and will report on its actions and activities at the next quarterly meeting of the Board. Committee members will be furnished with copies of the minutes of each meeting and any action taken by unanimous consent. The Committee is governed by the same rules regarding meetings (including meetings by conference telephone or similar communications equipment), action without meetings, notice, waiver of notice, and quorum and voting requirements as are applicable to the Board. The Committee is authorized and empowered to adopt its own rules of procedure not inconsistent with (a) any provision of this Committee’s charter (the “Charter”), (b) any provision of the bylaws of the Company, (c) the applicable laws of the State of Nevada, (d) the applicable laws, rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and (e) the Nasdaq Rules and such other applicable rules and regulations of the securities exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are listed or quoted.

Communications

The independent auditor reports directly to the Committee. The Committee is expected to maintain free and open communication with the independent auditor and management. This communication will include periodic private executive sessions with each of these parties.

Education

The Company is responsible for providing new members with appropriate orientation briefings and educational opportunities, and the full Committee with educational resources related to accounting principles and procedures, current accounting topics pertinent to the Company and other material as may be requested by the Committee. The Company will assist the Committee in maintaining appropriate financial literacy.

Authority

The Committee will have the resources and authority necessary to discharge its duties and responsibilities. The Committee has sole authority to appoint, retain and terminate independent counsel, outside financial experts or other advisors, as it deems appropriate, including sole authority to approve the firms’ fees and other retention terms, and to oversee the work of such independent counsel, outside financial experts or other advisors. The Committee will also maintain the authority to receive and respond to complaints regarding accounting and auditing matters. The Committee will be provided with appropriate funding by the Company, as the Committee determines, for the payment of compensation to the Company’s independent auditor and other advisors as it deems appropriate, and ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties. In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is empowered to investigate any matter brought to its attention. Any communications between the Committee and legal counsel in the course of obtaining legal advice will be considered privileged communications of the Company, and the Committee will take all necessary steps to preserve the privileged nature of those communications.

The Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees, composed of one or more of its independent members, and may delegate authority to one or more designated independent members of the Committee.

Related Party Transactions

Pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5630, the Committee shall review and approve policies and procedures regarding any transaction between the Company and its officers, directors, affiliates of officers and directors, or other related parties (a “Related Party Transaction”) for which disclosure in the Company’s filings with the SEC is required pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. The Committee shall consider the facts and circumstances regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, amounts involved, the relationship of the related person (and those persons identified in the instructions to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K) with the Company, and terms that would be available in a similar transaction with an unaffiliated third- party. The Committee shall also consider its fiduciary duties, the Company’s obligations under applicable securities laws (including disclosure obligations and director independence rules), and any other applicable law in evaluating a Related Party Transaction. The Committee shall then report its determination regarding such transactions to the full Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

Responsibilities

The Committee’s specific responsibilities in carrying out its oversight role are delineated below. Such responsibilities will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary to reflect changes in regulatory requirements, authoritative guidance, evolving oversight practices, and the results of the Company’s annual review of the Charter.

The Committee relies on the expertise and knowledge of management and the independent auditor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in carrying out its oversight responsibilities. Management of the Company is responsible for determining the Company’s financial statements are complete, accurate and in accordance with applicable law and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The independent auditor is responsible for auditing the Company’s financial statements. It is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits, to determine that the financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with GAAP, to conduct investigations, or to assure compliance with laws and regulations or the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code of Conduct”), internal policies or procedures and controls.

The following shall be “prohibited non-audit services”: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Company; (ii) financial information systems design and implementations; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, providing fairness opinions or preparing contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) prohibits through regulation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, pre-approval is not necessary for minor non-audit services if: (i) the aggregate amount of all such non-audit services provided to the Company constitutes not more than five percent of the total amount of fees paid by the Company to its registered public accounting firm during the fiscal year in which the non-audit services are provided; (ii) such services were not recognized by the Company at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Committee or by one or more members of the Committee who are members of the Board to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Committee.

The Committee will ensure that these policies, as enforced, prohibit any independent auditor from providing services to the Company in the capacity as the CEO, controller, CFO, chief accounting officer or any person serving in an equivalent capacity for the Company if such individual was employed by the independent auditor and participated in any capacity in the audit of the Company during the one-year period preceding the date of the initiation of the audit.

It is expected that the Committee shall evaluate, on at least an annual basis, whether any work provided by the Committee’s compensation consultant raised any conflicts of interest.
