PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

Why am I receiving these materials?

You have received these proxy materials because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the 2023 Annual Meeting. This proxy statement includes information that we are required to provide to you under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and is designed to assist you in voting your shares.

Pursuant to the “notice and access” rules adopted by the SEC, we have elected to provide stockholders access to our proxy materials over the internet. Accordingly, we sent the Notice to all of our stockholders as of the record date. The Notice includes instructions on how to access our proxy materials over the internet and how to request a printed copy of these materials. In addition, by following the instructions in the Notice, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email on an ongoing basis.

What is a proxy?

The Board is asking for your proxy. This means that you authorize persons selected by us to vote your shares at the 2023 Annual Meeting in the way that you instruct. We have designated two of our executive officers to serve as proxy holders for the 2023 Annual Meeting. All shares represented by valid proxies received before the 2023 Annual Meeting will be voted in accordance with the stockholder’s specific voting instructions.

	·	the election of the nominees to the Board nominated by our Board of Directors;

	·	the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of executive compensation (“Say-on-Pay”);

Table of Contents

How can I participate in the 2023 Annual Meeting?

You may view the 2023 Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NDRA2023. The 2023 Annual Meeting will begin at approximately 10:00 a.m. local time, with log-in beginning at 9:45 a.m., on July 6, 2023. As with an in-person meeting, you will be able to vote during the meeting, by logging into www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NDRA2023 and entering your stockholder information provided on the Notice previously mailed to you; however, in order to submit questions for consideration at the meeting we ask that you log onto proxyvote.com prior to the meeting’s start and follow the instructions to submit a question. If you hold shares in street name, you must vote by giving instructions to your bank or broker. You should follow the instructions on the form that you receive from your bank or broker in order to submit your voting instructions by proxy or questions.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the annual meeting webcast?

If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Virtual Shareholder Meeting log in page.

Who can attend and participate in the 2023 Annual Meeting?

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. is hosting the 2023 Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NDRA2023. While all stockholders will be permitted to listen online to the 2023 Annual Meeting, only stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 12, 2023 (the “record date”) and holders of valid proxies from such record holders may vote and ask questions for consideration at the 2023 Annual Meeting. To vote, a stockholder of record will need the control number included on their proxy cards or Notices, and to follow the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NDRA2023. To ask a question for consideration at the 2023 Annual Meeting, a stockholder of record will use the control number to submit the question via proxyvote.com prior to the meeting’s start. Beneficial owners who do not have a control number may gain access to the meeting or can submit a question by following the instructions provided by their broker, bank, or other nominee. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to start time and submit any questions in advance, as described above under “How Can I Participate in the 2023 Annual Meeting?”. Please allow time for online check-in, which will begin at 9:45 a.m. local time. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Virtual Shareholder Meeting log in page.

When is the record date and who is entitled to vote?

The Board set May 12, 2023 as the record date for the 2023 Annual Meeting. All record holders of ENDRA common stock and preferred stock as of the close of business on that date are entitled to vote. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote. Each outstanding share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) entitles the holder thereof to a number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which each such share of preferred stock could be converted on the record date based upon an issue price of $1,000 per share, subject to adjustment for accrued dividends, and a conversion price of $17.40 per share. Accordingly, as of the record date, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to approximately 70 votes. As of the record date, there were outstanding 7,481,603 shares of common stock entitled to 7,481,603 votes at the 2023 Annual Meeting and 141.397 shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to approximately 9,947 votes at the 2023 Annual Meeting.

ENDRA’s warrants do not have voting rights.

Table of Contents

What is a stockholder of record?

A stockholder of record, or registered stockholder, is a stockholder whose ownership of ENDRA common stock is reflected directly on the books and records of our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, or whose ownership of Series A Preferred Stock is reflected directly on the books and records kept by ENDRA. If you hold stock through an account with a bank, broker or similar organization, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and are not a stockholder of record. For shares held in street name, the stockholder of record is your bank, broker or similar organization. We only have access to stock ownership information for registered stockholders. As described below, if you are not a stockholder of record, you will not be able to vote your shares unless you have a proxy from the stockholder of record authorizing you to vote your shares.

How do I vote?

You may vote by any of the following methods:

	·	Virtually during the 2023 Annual Meeting. You may vote by attending the 2023 Annual Meeting online. Please follow the instructions for attending and voting virtually posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NDRA2023.

	·	By mail (if you received a paper copy of the proxy materials by mail). Stockholders of record may vote by signing and returning the proxy card provided.

	·	By submitting your proxy by phone or via the internet. You may submit your voting instructions by proxy, by phone or via the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice or the proxy card included with a paper copy of the proxy statement.

	·	Beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.” You may vote by following the voting instructions provided to you by your bank or broker.

How can I change or revoke my vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may change or revoke your proxy any time before it is voted at the 2023 Annual Meeting by:

	·	timely delivering a properly executed, later-dated proxy;

	·	delivering a written revocation of your proxy to our Secretary at our principal executive offices; or

	·	voting at the 2023 Annual Meeting.

Table of Contents

If you hold your shares beneficially in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or nominee following the instructions they provide.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

Stockholders of record. If you are a stockholder of record and you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion for any other matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting.

Beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.” If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

Which ballot measures are considered “routine” or “non-routine”?

The election of directors (“Proposal 1”), Say-on-Pay (“Proposal 2”) and Say-on-Frequency (“Proposal 3”) are considered to be non-routine matters under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore there may be broker non-votes on Proposals 1, 2 and 3.

The ratification of the appointment of RBSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023 (“Proposal 4”) is considered to be a routine matter under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee may generally vote on routine matters, and we do not expect there to be any broker non-votes with respect to Proposal 4.

What is the quorum for the 2023 Annual Meeting?

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of not less than one-third in voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting is necessary for the transaction of business at the 2023 Annual Meeting. This is called a quorum.

Table of Contents

What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?

The following are the voting requirements for each proposal:

	·	Proposal 1: Election of Directors. The five nominees receiving the highest number of votes will be elected as directors.

	·	Proposal 2: Say-on-Pay. The affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve Proposal 2.

	·	Proposal 3: Say-on-Frequency. If the option of every “one year,” “two years” or “three years” receives affirmative votes from the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, it will be the option approved by our stockholders. If none of the options receives affirmative votes from the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, the Board will still carefully review the voting results and take them into account in determining how often the Company should conduct an advisory vote on executive compensation.

	·	Proposal 4: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Audit Committee’s appointment of RBSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023 will be ratified if a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon votes in favor of the proposal.

How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?

Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the 2023 Annual Meeting. However, broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast for any non-routine proposal considered at the 2023 Annual Meeting and, therefore, will have no effect on the proposals regarding the election of directors, Say-on-Pay, or Say-on-Frequency. We expect no broker non-votes on the routine proposal regarding the appointment of RBSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023.

Abstentions will be counted as votes present and entitled to vote on the proposals considered at the 2023 Annual Meeting and, therefore, will be counted as votes against the proposals regarding Say-on-Pay, Say-on-Frequency and the appointment of RBSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023. Abstentions will have no effect on the proposal regarding the election of directors.

What does it mean if I get more than one set of voting materials?

Your shares are probably registered in more than one account. Please follow the separate voting instructions that you received for your shares of common stock and Series A Preferred Stock held in each of your different accounts to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Table of Contents

Who pays for solicitation of proxies?

ENDRA is paying the cost of soliciting proxies and will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for sending proxy materials to stockholders and obtaining their votes. In addition to soliciting the proxies by mail, certain of our directors, officers and regular employees, without compensation, may solicit proxies personally or by telephone, facsimile and email.

Where can I find the voting results of the 2023 Annual Meeting?

We will announce voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days following the meeting.

How can I submit a proposal for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders?

PROPOSAL 1 ‒ ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s Board of Directors currently consists of five members. Upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of our Board of Directors, the Board has nominated the five current directors for election at the 2023 Annual Meeting to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

Shares represented by all proxies received by the Board and not marked so as to withhold authority to vote for any individual nominee will be voted FOR the election of the nominees named below. The Board knows of no reason why any nominee would be unable or unwilling to serve, but if such should be the case, proxies may be voted for the election of some other person nominated by the Board of Directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES AND BOARD MATTERS

Board Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Basenese, Mr. DiGiandomenico, Mr. Harsh and Mr. Tokman is an independent director within the meaning of the director independence standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”). Furthermore, the Board has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee are independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of Nasdaq and the rules of the SEC applicable to each such committee.

Board Leadership Structure

We have a Chairman of the Board who presides at all meetings of the Board. Currently, Mr. Michelon serves as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. ENDRA has no fixed policy with respect to the separation of the offices of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Our bylaws permit these positions to be held by the same person, and the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to retain flexibility in determining whether to separate or combine the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer based on our circumstances. The Board has determined that it is appropriate for Mr. Michelon to serve as both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer because combining the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer: (1) enhances the alignment between the Board and management in strategic planning and execution as well as operational matters, (2) avoids the confusion over roles, responsibilities and authority that can result from separating the positions, and (3) streamlines board process in order to conserve time for the consideration of the important matters the Board needs to address. Further, four of our five current Board members have been deemed to be independent by our Board; therefore, we believe our Board structure provides sufficient independent oversight of our management. The Board has not named a lead independent director.

Communications with the Board of Directors

Security holders who wish to communicate directly with the Board, the independent directors of the Board or any individual member of the Board may do so by sending such communication by certified mail addressed to the Chairman of the Board, the entire Board of Directors, to the independent directors as a group or to the individual director or directors, in each case, c/o Secretary, ENDRA Life Sciences Inc., 3600 Green Court, Suite 350, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105. The Secretary reviews any such security holder communication and forwards relevant communications to the addressee.

Policies Regarding Director Nominations

The Board has delegated to its Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee responsibility for establishing membership criteria for the Board, identifying individuals qualified to become directors consistent with such criteria and recommending the director nominees.

Table of Contents

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for, among other things: (1) recommending to the Board persons to serve as members of the Board and as members of and chairpersons for the committees of the Board, (2) considering the recommendation of candidates to serve as directors submitted from the stockholders of the Company, (3) assisting the Board in evaluating the Board’s and its committees’ performance, (4) advising the Board regarding the appropriate board leadership structure for the Company, (5) reviewing and making recommendations to the Board on corporate governance and (6) reviewing the size and composition of the Board and recommending to the Board any changes it deems advisable.

The Board seeks members from diverse professional backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of relevant industry and strategic experience and expertise that, in concert, offer us and our stockholders diversity of opinion and insight in the areas most important to us and our corporate mission. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has not set specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by director candidates. Rather, in determining candidates to recommend to the Board to serve as members of the Board, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will consider, among other things, whether a candidate is of the highest ethical character and shares the Company’s values and whether the candidate’s reputation, both personal and professional, in consistent with the image and reputation of the Company. In addition, nominees for director are selected to have complementary, rather than overlapping, skill sets. However, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee does not have a formal policy concerning the diversity of the Board.

Procedures for Recommendation of Director Nominees by Stockholders

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers individuals properly recommended by stockholders in the same manner as it considers director nominees identified by other means.

Policy Governing Director Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

Each director is encouraged to attend the 2023 Annual Meeting of stockholders either in person or telephonically. Three of our five directors on the Board at the time attended last year’s annual meeting.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have in place a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Ethics”) that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

PROPOSAL 2 – ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This Proposal 2 enables our stockholders to cast a non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

Our executive compensation program, as described in detail under the heading “Compensation and Other Information Concerning Directors and Officers”, is designed to attract, motivate and retain our executive officers, who are critical to our success. Please read the “Compensation and Other Information Concerning Directors and Officers” section beginning on page 27 for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the 2022 compensation of our named executive officers.

We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our executive compensation programs as described in this proxy statement. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, objectives and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, is hereby APPROVED.”

Although the vote on this Proposal 2 regarding the compensation of our named executive officers is not binding on our Board of Directors, we value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the result of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements.

Vote Required for Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present or represented by proxy at the 2023 Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve the foregoing resolution.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers.

Table of Contents

PROPOSAL 3 – ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This Proposal 3 provides stockholders with an opportunity to cast a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation paid to our named executive officers. Under this Proposal 3, stockholders may vote in favor of holding this advisory vote every year, every two years or every three years, beginning with the 2023 Annual Meeting, or the stockholders may choose to abstain.

After careful consideration, the Board recommends that the advisory vote by our stockholders on executive compensation be held every year. In formulating its recommendation, our Board believes that giving our stockholders the right to cast an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers is good corporate governance practice and is in the best interests of our stockholders, allowing our stockholders to provide us with frequent and direct input on our executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement each year.

Although non-binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee will carefully review the voting results. Notwithstanding the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the stockholder vote, our Board may in the future decide to conduct advisory votes on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its practice based on factors such as discussions with stockholders and the adoption of material changes to our compensation programs and policies.

Vote Required for Approval

The option of every “one year,” “two years” or “three years” that receives affirmative votes from a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present or represented by proxy at the 2023 Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon will be the option approved by our stockholders. If none of the options receives affirmative votes from the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, the Board will still carefully review the voting results and take them into account in determining how often the Company should conduct an advisory vote on executive compensation.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that the stockholders vote “ONE YEAR” to advise the Board as to how often the Company should conduct a stockholder advisory vote on named executive officer compensation.

COMPENSATION AND OTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As a “smaller reporting company,” we have opted to comply with scaled executive and director compensation disclosure rules applicable to “smaller reporting companies.”

Our compensation philosophy is to offer our executive officers compensation and benefits that are competitive and meet our goals of attracting, retaining and motivating highly skilled management, which is necessary to achieve our financial and strategic objectives and create long-term value for our stockholders. We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable and appropriate for our business needs and circumstances. Our Board of Directors uses benchmark compensation studies in determining compensation elements and levels. The principal elements of our executive compensation program have to date included base salary, annual bonus opportunity and long-term equity compensation in the form of stock options. We believe successful long-term Company performance is more critical to enhancing stockholder value than short-term results. For this reason and to conserve cash and better align the interests of management and our stockholders, we emphasize long-term performance-based equity compensation.

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation earned by the individual that served as our principal executive officer during 2022 and our two most highly compensated executive officers other than the individual who served as our principal executive officer during 2022 (collectively, the “named executive officers”):

Additionally, pursuant to the Compensation Policy, each non-employee director is paid an annual cash retainer of $40,000, prorated for partial years of service and paid quarterly in arrears.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee is comprised of Louis Basenese, Anthony DiGiandomenico and Michael Harsh. None of members of the Audit Committee is a current or former officer or employee of the Company, and the Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets the independence requirements promulgated by The Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC, including Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls and the certification of the integrity and reliability of the Company’s internal controls procedures. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and has discussed them with both management and RBSM LLP (“RBSM”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The Audit Committee has reviewed permitted services under rules of the SEC as currently in effect and discussed with RBSM its independence from management and the Company, including the matters in the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee has also considered and discussed the compatibility of non-audit services provided by RBSM with that firm’s independence.

Based on its review of the financial statements and the aforementioned discussions, the Audit Committee concluded that it would be reasonable to recommend, and on that basis did recommend, to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report.

Respectfully submitted by the Audit Committee.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Policy for Review of Related Person Transactions

The Board of Directors has adopted a written policy with regard to related person transactions, which sets forth our procedures and standards for the review, approval or ratification of any transaction required to be reported in our filings with the SEC or in which one of our executive officers or directors has a direct or indirect material financial interest, with limited exceptions. Our policy is that the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee shall review the material facts of all related person transactions (as defined in the related person transaction approval policy) and either approve or disapprove of the entry into any related person transaction. In the event that obtaining the advance approval of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is not feasible, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee shall consider the related person transaction and, if the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee determines it to be appropriate, may ratify the related person transaction. In determining whether to approve or ratify a related person transaction, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the related person transaction is on terms comparable to those available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction.

Related Person Transactions

SEC regulations define the related person transactions that require disclosure to include any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of (a) $120,000 or (b) one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years in which it was or is to be a participant and in which a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person is: (i) an executive officer, director or director nominee of the Company, (ii) a beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, (iii) an immediate family member of an executive officer, director or director nominee or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, or (iv) any entity that is owned or controlled by any of the foregoing persons or in which any of the foregoing persons has a substantial ownership interest or control.

Since January 1, 2021, the Company has not participated in any such related party transaction.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of the reports that we received and written representations that no other reports were required, we believe that our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders complied with all applicable filing requirements on a timely basis during 2022, except for one Form 4 for Michael Thornton related to a purchase of shares May 18, 2022, which was reported on May 23, 2022.

Table of Contents

HOUSEHOLDING OF ANNUAL MEETING MATERIALS

SEC rules permit registrants to send a single copy of their proxy materials to any household at which two or more stockholders reside if the registrant believes they are members of the same family. This procedure, referred to as householding, reduces the volume of duplicate information stockholders receive and reduces the expense to the registrant. The Company has not implemented these householding rules with respect to its record holders; however, a number of brokerage firms have instituted householding, which may affect certain beneficial owners of common stock. If your family has multiple accounts by which you hold common stock, you may have previously received a householding notification from your broker. Please contact your broker directly if you have any questions, require additional copies of the proxy materials, or wish to revoke your decision to household, and thereby receive multiple copies of the proxy materials. Those options are available to you at any time.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board knows of no business that will be presented for consideration at the 2023 Annual Meeting other than those items stated above. If any other business should properly come before the 2023 Annual Meeting, votes may be cast pursuant to proxies in respect to any such business in the best judgment of the person or persons acting under the proxies.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE STOCKHOLDER MEETING TO BE HELD ON JULY 6, 2023

The proxy statement and annual report to stockholders are available at investors.endrainc.com/sec-filings.

A copy of the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 is available without charge upon written request to: Secretary, ENDRA Life Sciences Inc., 3600 Green Court, Ste. 350, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105.
