823,800
Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion or Repayment of the Notes
Digital Ally, Inc. (the “Company”,
“we”, “us” or “our”) is offering, pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
base prospectus, up to an aggregate of $1,153,320 in original principal amount of our 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory
Notes due August 4, 2020 (each, a “Registered Note,” and, collectively, the “Registered Notes”), the 823,800
shares of our common stock par value $0.001 per share (our “common stock”) underlying such Registered Notes (the “Conversion
Shares”) as well as 89,285 shares of our common stock (the “Commitment Shares”) having an aggregate value equal
to five percent (5%) of such investors’ subscription amounts for all of the Notes (defined hereafter), based upon a valuation
per share of our common stock equal to $1.40.
In a concurrent private placement, we
are also selling to such investors up to an additional aggregate of $1,624,457.78 in original principal amount of our
8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes due August 4, 2020 (collectively, with the Registered Notes, the
“Notes”), which together with the Registered Notes, equals a total of $2,777,777.78 in original principal amount
of Notes, along with the shares of our common stock issuable from time to time upon conversion of such additional
Notes, and warrants to purchase up to 571,428 shares of our common stock (the “Purchase Warrants”) (and the
shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Purchase Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”)). Such additional
Notes, the shares of our common stock issuable from time to time upon conversion of such additional Notes, the
Purchase Warrants and the Warrant Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying base prospectus form a part and are not being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying base prospectus. Such additional Notes, the shares of our common stock issuable from time to time upon
conversion of such additional Notes, the Purchase Warrants and the Warrant Shares are being offered pursuant to an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or
Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
The Notes will bear interest at a rate of
8% per annum, twelve (12) months’ of which shall be guaranteed, payable on the maturity date and on each conversion, prepayment,
event of default, and/or other acceleration of principal outstanding on each such Note. All interest is payable in cash, except
for the payments of interest in connection with the Monthly Repayments (as defined in the Notes) or on any Conversion Date (as
defined in the Notes), which payments shall be in shares of our common stock. The Notes will mature on August 4, 2020,
unless earlier converted. The sales of such securities will be made in accordance with a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated
August 5, 2019, by and among us and the investors named therein (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). Holders
may convert their Notes at their option at any time prior to such holder’s Note being paid in full. We may convert all,
or any part, of the Notes (but in no event less than an amount equal to the lesser of (x) two (2) times the daily average trading
volume of our common stock for the prior twenty (20) consecutive trading days, and (y) all of the conversion amount then remaining
under the Notes) at any time that (i) the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the prior twenty (20) consecutive
trading days exceeds $4.50, (ii) no event of default under the Notes has occurred, (iii) certain other conditions have
been satisfied. Upon conversion, we will deliver shares of our common stock as described in this prospectus supplement.
The
conversion price of the Notes (the “Conversion Price”) equals $1.40, and is subject to adjustment pursuant to the
terms of the Notes. The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments upon an event of default or upon any stock dividend,
stock split, stock combination, reclassification, or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the price
of our shares of common stock.
We
may prepay any portion of the principal amount of the Notes, all accrued and unpaid interest (including, without limitation, guaranteed
interest on any outstanding principal) relating to such prepaid portion of the principal and all other amounts due under the Notes
at any time upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Note holders, so long as no event of default exists under the
Notes. If we exercise our right to prepay a Note, we must make a payment to the holder of (i) an amount in cash equal to the sum
of (x) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note and (y) all accrued but unpaid guaranteed interest, if such prepayment
occurs on or prior to January 31, 2020, and (ii) an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the then-outstanding principal
amount of the Note and all accrued but unpaid interest, and (y) 110%, if such prepayment occurs after January 31, 2020.
We must also make such prepayments to the holders upon (i) our consummation of any public or private offering or other financing
or capital-raising transaction during the term of the Notes in which we receive gross proceeds of at least $7.5 million or (ii)
our receipt of at least $7.5 million in cash from any action, suit or proceeding.
We do not intend to apply to list the Notes
on any securities exchange or to arrange for their quotation on any automated dealer quotation system. Our common stock is traded
on The Nasdaq Capital Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “DGLY”. On August 2, 2019, the closing
price of our common stock was $1.40 per share.
We
intend to use the net proceeds received from the sale of the Registered Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes.
We will not receive any additional proceeds if and when the Registered Notes are converted into shares of our common stock. We
expect to issue such shares of common stock, if and when the Registered Notes are converted, from time to time until August
4, 2020.
We
estimate the expenses of this offering will be approximately $50,000.
The aggregate market value of our outstanding
voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates was $27,886,922, based on 11,430,537 shares of our outstanding
common stock, of which 9,525,849 shares were held by non-affiliates, based on the highest average of the bid and asked
prices of our common stock within the last 60 days, which is $2.9275. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, in
no event will we sell securities in a public primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in
any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75,000,000. During the previous 12 calendar months prior to and
including the date of this prospectus supplement, we completed a firm commitment underwritten public offering, in September 2018,
of shares of our common stock with an aggregate value of $7.32 million, and in connection with such offering, we granted the underwriters
a forty-five (45)-day option to purchase additional shares of our common stock to cover over-allotments, which option was partially
exercised by such underwriters, resulting in additional gross proceeds of $610,000.

The
two parts of this document include: (1) this prospectus supplement, which describes the specific details regarding this offering
of the Commitment Shares, the Registered Notes and the Conversion Shares; and (2) the accompanying base prospectus, which provides

PROSPECTUS
SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY
This
summary highlights selected information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
base prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You
should carefully read this entire prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference
herein and therein before making a decision about whether to invest in our securities.
Our
Company
We
produce digital video imaging and storage products for use in law enforcement, security and commercial applications. Our current
products are an in-car digital video/audio recorder contained in a rear-view mirror for use in law enforcement and commercial
fleets, a system that provides our law enforcement customers with audio/video surveillance from multiple vantage points and hands-free
automatic activation of body-worn cameras and in-car video systems; a miniature digital video system designed to be worn on an
individual’s body; and cloud storage solutions including cloud-based fleet management and driver monitoring/training applications.
We have active research and development programs to adapt our technologies to other applications. We have the ability to integrate
electronic, radio, computer, mechanical, and multi-media technologies to create unique solutions to address needs in a variety
of other industries and markets, including those applicable to mass transit, school buses, taxi cabs and the military. We sell
our products to law enforcement agencies and other security organizations, and consumer and commercial fleet operators through
direct sales domestically and third-party distributors internationally. We have several new and derivative products in research
and development that we anticipate will begin commercial production during the third quarter of 2019.
We
supply technology-based products utilizing our portable digital video and audio recording capabilities, for the law enforcement
and security industries and for the commercial fleet and mass transit markets. We have the ability to integrate electronic, radio,
computer, mechanical, and multi-media technologies to create positive solutions to our customers’ requests. Our products
include the DVM-800 and DVM-800 Lite, in-car digital video mirror systems for law enforcement; the FirstVU and the FirstVU HD,
body-worn cameras, our patented and revolutionary VuLink product, which integrates our body-worn cameras with our in-car systems
by providing hands-free automatic activation, for both law enforcement and commercial markets; the DVM-250 and DVM-250 Plus, a
commercial line of digital video mirrors that serve as “event recorders” for the commercial fleet and mass transit
markets; and FleetVU and VuLink, our cloud-based evidence management systems. We introduced the EVO-HD product in the second quarter
of 2019 and will begin full-scale deliveries in the third quarter 2019. The EVO-HD is designed and built on a new and highly advanced
technology platform that we expect to become the platform for a new family of in-car video solution products for the law enforcement
and commercial markets. We believe that the launch of these new products will help to reinvigorate our in-car and body-worn systems
revenues while diversifying and broadening the market for our product offerings.
We
were incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2000 as Vegas Petra, Inc. From that date until November 30, 2004, when we entered
into a Plan of Merger with Digital Ally, Inc., a Nevada corporation which was formerly known as Trophy Tech Corporation (the “Acquired
Company”), we had not conducted any operations and were a closely-held company. In conjunction with the merger, we were
renamed Digital Ally, Inc.
The
Acquired Company, which was incorporated on May 16, 2003, engaged in the design, development, marketing and sale of bow hunting-related
products. Its principal product was a digital video recording system for use in the bow hunting industry. It changed its business
plan in 2004 to adapt its digital video recording system for use in the law enforcement and security markets. We began shipments
of our in-car digital video rear view mirror in March 2006.

RISK
FACTORS
Investing
in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information contained
in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus and in the documents that we incorporate by reference into this
prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus before you decide to purchase our securities. In particular, you should
carefully consider and evaluate the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. Any of the risks and uncertainties set forth in this prospectus supplement and
the accompanying base prospectus, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents that we file with the SEC and
incorporate by reference into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying base prospectus could materially and adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the value of
our securities. As a result, you could lose all or part of your investment.
Risks
Related to this Offering of Securities
Our
insiders and affiliated parties beneficially own a significant portion of our common stock.
As
of the date of this prospectus supplement, our executive officers, directors, and affiliated parties beneficially own approximately
19.0% of our common stock as of August 2, 2019, including options vested or to vest within sixty (60) days. As a result,
our executive officers, directors and affiliated parties will have significant influence to:
|
●
|
elect
or defeat the election of our directors;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
amend
or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
effect
or prevent a merger, sale of assets, change of control or other corporate transaction; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
affect
the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote.
|
In
addition, any sale of a significant amount of our common stock held by our directors and executive officers, or the possibility
of such sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage
a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our
stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing any gains from our common stock. Furthermore, the interests of this concentration
of ownership may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other stockholders. Accordingly, these stockholders
could cause us to enter into transactions or agreements that we would not otherwise consider.
The
market price for our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly
traded public float, and lack of profits, which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell
any common shares that you hold at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.
The
market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to the shares of larger, more established
companies that trade on a national securities exchange and have large public floats, and we expect that our share price will continue
to be more volatile than the shares of such larger, more established companies for the indefinite future. The volatility in our
share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common stock is, compared to the shares of such
larger, more established companies, sporadically and thinly traded. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously
in the event that a large number of our common stock is sold on the market without commensurate demand. Secondly, an investment
in our securities is a speculative or “risky” investment due to our lack of profits to date. As a consequence of this
enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative
news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would
be the case with the stock of a larger, more established company that trades on a national securities exchange and has a large
public float. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock regardless of
our operating performance.
There
is currently no established trading market for the Registered Notes and we do not expect that one will develop.
There
currently is no established trading market for the Registered Notes. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the
Notes, including the Registered Notes, on any securities exchange or to arrange for their quotation on any automated dealer quotation
system, and we do not intend to make a market in the Notes, including the Registered Notes, and do not expect that one will develop.
As a result, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop for the Notes, including the Registered Notes. If
an active trading market does not develop or is not maintained, the liquidity of the Registered Notes may be adversely affected.
In that case, you may not be able to sell your Registered Notes at a particular time, or you may not be able to sell your Registered
Notes at a favorable price.
The
sale or availability for sale of shares issuable upon conversion or repayment of the Notes or upon exercise of the Purchase Warrants
issued in connection with our concurrent private offering may depress the price of our common stock and encourage short sales
by third parties, which could further depress the price of our common stock.
To
the extent that the purchasers of the Notes or the Purchase Warrants issued in connection with our concurrent private offering
sell shares of our common stock issued upon conversion or repayment of the Notes or upon exercise of such Purchase Warrants, the
market price of such shares may decrease due to the additional selling pressure in the market. In addition, the risk of dilution
from issuances of such shares may cause stockholders to sell their shares of our common stock, which could further contribute
to any decline in the price of our common stock. Any downward pressure on the price of our common stock caused by the sale or
potential sale of such shares could encourage short sales by third parties. In a short sale, a prospective seller borrows shares
from a stockholder or broker and sells the borrowed shares. The prospective seller hopes that the share price will decline, at
which time the seller can purchase shares at a lower price for delivery back to the lender. The seller profits when the share
price declines because it is purchasing shares at a price lower than the sale price of the borrowed shares. Such sales could place
downward pressure on the price of our common stock by increasing the number of shares of our common stock being sold, which could
further contribute to any decline in the market price of our common stock.
Holders
of the Registered Notes will not be entitled to any rights with respect to our common stock but will be subject to all changes
made with respect to our common stock.
Holders
of the Registered Notes will not be entitled to any rights with respect to our common stock (including, without limitation, voting
rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on our common stock), but holders of the Registered Notes will
be subject to all changes affecting our common stock. For example, if an amendment is proposed to our articles of incorporation
requiring stockholder approval and the record date for determining the stockholders of record entitled to vote on the amendment
occurs prior to the relevant holder acquiring shares of our common stock as a result of conversion of such holder’s Registered
Notes or the repayment of such Registered Notes in the form of common stock, such holder will not be entitled to vote on the amendment,
although such holder will nevertheless be subject to any changes in the powers, preferences or special rights of our common stock.
In
the event of that the mandatory prepayment provision under to the Registered Notes is triggered, servicing such debt will require
a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to make payments on our debt, and such
prepayment, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
Our
ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, including the Registered
Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors that may be beyond
our control. Our business may not continue to generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt
and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more
alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional debt financing or equity capital on terms that
may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial
condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms,
which could result in a default on our debt obligations, including the Registered Notes. In addition, any of our future debt agreements
may contain restrictive covenants that may prohibit us from adopting any of these alternatives. Our failure to comply with these
covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of our debt.
If
we are not able to comply with the applicable continued listing requirements or standards of Nasdaq, Nasdaq could delist our common
stock.
Our
common stock is currently listed on Nasdaq. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued
listing requirements and standards, including those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimum
stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance requirements. There can be no assurances that
we will be able to comply with the applicable listing standards.
In
the event that our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq and is not eligible for quotation on another market or exchange, trading
of our common stock could be conducted in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted
securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or
obtain accurate price quotations for, our common stock, and there would likely also be a reduction in our coverage by securities
analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for
us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a major exchange. On July 11, 2019, the Company was officially notified
by Nasdaq that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the minimum Market Value of Listed Securities (the “MVLS”)
for our common stock was below the $35 million minimum MVLS requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rule
5550(b)(2) (the “MLVS Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), we will have 180 calendar days,
or until January 7, 2020, to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule. To regain compliance with the MLVS Rule, the minimum MVLS for
our common stock must be at least $35 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time during this 180-day period.
If we do not regain compliance with such rule by January 7, 2020, we may be delisted from Nasdaq. In the event of such notification,
the Nasdaq rules permit us an opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s determination. In the event we are delisted from Nasdaq, our
common stock may lose liquidity, increase volatility, and lose market maker support.
In
the event that our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, U.S. broker-dealers may be discouraged from effecting transactions in
shares of our common stock because they may be considered penny stocks and thus be subject to the penny stock rules.
The
SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate a “penny stock” that restricts transactions involving stock which is
deemed to be a penny stock. Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under
the Exchange Act. These rules may have the effect of reducing the liquidity of penny stocks. “Penny stocks” generally
are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share (other than securities registered on certain national securities
exchanges or traded on Nasdaq if current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided
by the exchange or system). Our shares of common stock have in the past constituted, and may again in the future constitute, a
“penny stock” within the meaning of the rules. The additional sales practice and disclosure requirements imposed upon
U.S. broker-dealers may discourage such broker-dealers from effecting transactions in shares of our common stock, which could
severely limit the market liquidity of such shares of common stock and impede their sale in the secondary market.
A
U.S. broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or “accredited investor” (generally,
an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with his or
her spouse) must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent
to the transaction prior to sale, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. In addition, the “penny
stock” regulations require the U.S. broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a “penny stock”,
a disclosure schedule prepared in accordance with SEC standards relating to the “penny stock” market, unless the broker-dealer
or the transaction is otherwise exempt. A U.S. broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the U.S. broker-dealer
and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, a U.S. broker-dealer is required to submit
monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to any “penny stock” held in a customer’s
account and information with respect to the limited market in “penny stocks”.
You
should be aware that, according to the SEC, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns
of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often
related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and
misleading press releases; (iii) “boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price
projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers;
and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired
level, resulting in investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock
market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate
in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being
established with respect to our securities.
If
and when a larger trading market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock is still likely to be highly
volatile and subject to wide fluctuations, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the price at which you acquired
them.
The
market price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors
that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:
|
●
|
variations
in our revenues and operating expenses;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
actual
or anticipated changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in stock market analyst recommendations regarding
our common stock, other comparable companies or our industry generally;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
market
conditions in our industry, the industries of our customers and the economy as a whole;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
actual
or expected changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
developments
in the financial markets and worldwide or regional economies;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements
of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements
by the government relating to regulations that govern our industry;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
sales
of our common stock or other securities by us or in the open market; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes
in the market valuations of other comparable companies.
|
In
addition, if the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general experiences loss of investor confidence, the trading
price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The trading
price of our shares of common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry, even
if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could harm the value of your investment in our
securities. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted
against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s
attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
In
making your investment decision, you should understand that we have not authorized any other party to provide you with information
concerning us or this offering.
You
should carefully evaluate all of the information in this prospectus supplement before investing in our company. We may receive
media coverage regarding our company, including coverage that is not directly attributable to statements made by our officers,
that incorrectly reports on statements made by our officers or employees, or that is misleading as a result of omitting information
provided by us, our officers or employees. We have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us
or this offering, and you should not rely on this information in making an investment decision.
Our
ability to use our net operating loss carry-forwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.
Under
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change” (generally
defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period), the corporation’s ability
to use its pre-change net operating loss carry-forwards and other pre-change tax attributes (such as research tax credits) to
offset its post-change income may be limited. We may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of subsequent shifts
in our stock ownership, including as a result of the completion of this offering when it is taken together with other transactions
we may consummate in the succeeding three-year period. As a result, if we earn net taxable income, our ability to use our pre-change
net operating loss carry-forwards to offset U.S. federal taxable income may be subject to limitations, which potentially could
result in increased future tax liability to us.
We
do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future; you should not buy our securities if you expect
dividends.
The
payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors
affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be
less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.
We
currently intend to retain our future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and, therefore, we do not anticipate
paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
You
may experience additional dilution in the future.
We
may acquire other technologies or finance strategic alliances by issuing our equity or equity-linked securities, which may result
in additional dilution to our stockholders.
Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability
to buy and sell our shares of common stock.
FINRA
has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds
for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their
non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial
status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there
is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for certain customers. FINRA requirements will
likely make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect
of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market
in our common stock, reducing a stockholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock.
We
have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.
Our
management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, including for any of the purposes
described in the section of this prospectus supplement entitled “Use of Proceeds.” The failure by our management to
apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in
interest-bearing, investment-grade, securities. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.
You
will experience immediate and substantial dilution upon conversion of your Registered Notes.
The
Conversion Price of the Registered Notes exceeds the net tangible book value per share of our common stock outstanding prior to
this offering. Assuming that an aggregate of 823,800 shares of our common stock are issued upon conversion of the Registered Notes
at the Conversion Price of $1.40 per share, holders of the Registered Notes will experience immediate dilution of $1.63 per share,
representing the difference between our as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2019, after giving effect
to this offering and the conversion of the Registered Notes, and the Conversion Price. The exercise of outstanding stock options
and warrants, and the conversion of other outstanding convertible debt will result in further dilution of your investment. See
the section entitled “Dilution” on page S-24 of this prospectus supplement for a more detailed illustration of the
dilution you would incur if you convert your Registered Notes. In addition, you may experience further dilution upon our election
to repay the Registered Notes in shares of our common stock. See “Description of the Securities That We Are Offering”
and “Description of Debt Securities and Convertible Debt”.
Exercise
of options or warrants or conversion of other convertible securities may have a dilutive effect on your percentage ownership of
common stock upon conversion or repayment of the Registered Notes and may result in a dilution of your voting power and an increase
in the number of shares of common stock eligible for future resale in the public market, which may negatively impact the trading
price of our shares of common stock.
The
exercise or conversion of some or all of our outstanding warrants or convertible securities could result in significant dilution
in the percentage ownership interest of investors in this offering and in the percentage ownership interest of our existing common
stockholders and in a significant dilution of voting rights and earnings per share.
As
of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have warrants outstanding to purchase 4,164,145 shares of common stock. The warrants
have a weighted average exercise price of $5.71 and a weighted average years to maturity of approximately 2.4 years. In addition,
we have options to purchase 596,075 shares of our common stock outstanding and exercisable at an average price of $3.90 per share.
In
addition to the dilutive effects described above, the exercise of those securities would lead to an increase in the number of
shares of common stock eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares of common stock in
the public market could adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock. Substantial dilution and/or a substantial
increase in the number of shares of common stock available for future resale may negatively impact the trading price of our shares
of common stock.
We
may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing securities that would dilute
the ownership of the common stock. Depending on the terms available to us, if these activities result in significant dilution,
it may negatively impact the trading price of our shares of common stock.
We
have financed our operations, and we expect to continue to finance our operations, acquisitions, if any, and the development of
strategic relationships by issuing equity and/or convertible securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership
of our existing stockholders. Further, any additional financing that we secure may require the granting of rights, preferences
or privileges senior to, or pari passu with, those of our common stock. Any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or
below the prevailing market price of our common stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest,
which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. We may also raise additional funds through the incurrence of
debt or the issuance or sale of other securities or instruments senior to our shares of common stock. The holders of any securities
or instruments we may issue may have rights superior to the rights of our common stockholders. If we experience dilution from
issuance of additional securities and we grant superior rights to new securities over common stockholders, it may negatively impact
the trading price of our shares of common stock.
Our
charter documents and Nevada law could prevent a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also reduce the market
price of our common stock.
Provisions
of Nevada anti-takeover law (NRS 78.378
et seq.
) could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third-party from acquiring
us, even if the acquisition arguably could benefit our stockholders. Various provisions of our by-laws may delay, defer or prevent
a tender offer or takeover attempt of us that a stockholder might consider in his or her best interest. Our by-laws may be adopted,
amended or repealed by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of our outstanding shares of capital stock entitled
to vote for the election of directors, and except as provided by Nevada law, our Board of Directors shall have the power to adopt,
amend or repeal the bylaws by a vote of not less than a majority of our directors. The interests of these stockholders and directors
may not be consistent with your interests, and they may make changes to the by-laws that are not in line with your concerns.
Subject
to applicable Nasdaq rules regarding the issuance of 20% or more of our common stock, our authorized but unissued shares of common
stock are available for our Board or Directors to issue without stockholder approval. We may use these additional shares for a
variety of corporate purposes, however, faced with an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy context, tender offer,
merger or other transaction our Board of Directors acting alone and without approval of our stockholders can issue large amounts
of capital stock as part of a defense to a take-over challenge.
The
existence of the foregoing provisions and other potential anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be
willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our company, thereby
reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your common stock in an acquisition.
If
securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or
if they change their recommendations regarding our common stock adversely, our common stock price and trading volume could decline.
The
trading market for our shares of common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts
may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation
regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our share price
would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports
on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our common stock price or trading volume to
decline.
The
requirements of being a U.S. public company may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.
As
a U.S. public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank
Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Compliance with these rules and
regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly,
and increase demand on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual and current
reports with respect to our business and operating results.
As
a result of disclosure of information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus and in filings required
of a public company, our business and financial condition is more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual
litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results
could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and
resources necessary to resolve them, could divert resources of our management and harm our business and operating results.
An
active, liquid trading market for our common stock may not develop, which may cause our common stock to trade at a discount from
the Conversion Price and make it difficult for you to sell the common stock you hold.
Our
common stock is currently listed on Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our common
stock either now or in the future. If an active and liquid trading market does not develop or if developed cannot be sustained,
you may have difficulty selling any of our common stock that you hold. The market price of our common stock may decline below
the Conversion Price, and you may not be able to sell your shares of our common stock at or above the price you paid, or at all.
Risks
Related to our Business
We
have incurred losses in recent years.
We
have had net losses for several years and had an accumulated deficit of $80,588,080 at March 31, 2019, which includes our
net losses of $3,205,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $2,588,232 for the three months ended March
31, 2018. We have implemented several initiatives intended to improve our revenues and reduce our operating costs with a goal
of restoring profitability. If we are unsuccessful in this regard, it will have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects,
operating results and financial condition.
We
do not have any revolving credit facilities and it may be difficult for us to enter into one.
We
have no revolving credit facility to fund our operating needs should it become necessary. It will be difficult to obtain an institutional
line of credit facility given our recent operating losses and the current banking environment, which may adversely affect our
ability to finance our business, grow or be profitable. Further, even if we could obtain a new credit facility, in all likelihood
it would not be on terms favorable to us.
If
we are unable to manage our current business activities, our prospects may be limited and our future profitability may be adversely
affected.
We
experienced a decline in our operating results from 2009 to 2018 and to date in 2019. Our revenues have been unpredictable, which
poses significant burdens on us to be proactive in managing production, personnel levels and related costs. We will need to improve
our revenues, operations, financial and other systems to manage our business effectively, and any failure to do so may lead to
inefficiencies and redundancies which reduce our prospects to return to profitability.
There
are risks related to dealing with domestic governmental entities as customers.
One
of the principal target markets for our products is the law enforcement community. In this market, the sale of products will be
subject to budget constraints of governmental agencies purchasing these products, which could result in a significant reduction
in our anticipated revenues. Such governmental agencies have experienced budgetary pressures because of the recent recession and
its impact on local sales, property and income taxes that provide funding for purchasing our products. These agencies also may
experience political pressure that dictates the way they spend money. Thus, even if an agency wants to acquire our products, it
may be unable to purchase them due to budgetary or political constraints, even if such agencies have the necessary funds, we may
experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision-making policies and procedures.
There
are risks related to dealing with foreign governmental entities as customers.
We
target the law enforcement community in foreign countries for the sale of many of our products. While foreign countries vary,
generally the sale of our products will be subject to political and budgetary constraints of foreign governments and agencies
purchasing these products, which could result in a significant reduction in our anticipated revenues. Many foreign governments
are experiencing budgetary pressures because of the recent global recession and its impact on taxes and tariffs that in many cases
provide funding for purchasing our products. Law enforcement agencies within these countries also may experience political pressure
that dictates the way they spend money. Thus, even if a foreign country or its law enforcement agencies want to acquire our products,
it may be unable to purchase them due to budgetary or political constraints. We cannot assure investors that such governmental
agencies will have the necessary funds to purchase our products even though they may want to do so. Further, even if such agencies
have the necessary funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision-making policies
and procedures.
International
law enforcement and other agencies that may consider using our products must analyze a wide range of issues before committing
to purchase products like ours, including training costs, product reliability and budgetary constraints. The length of our sales
cycle may range from a few months to a year or more. We may incur substantial selling costs and expend significant effort in connection
with the evaluation of our products by potential customers before they place an order. Initial orders by foreign governments and
agencies typically are for a small number of units that are used to evaluate the products. If these potential customers do not
purchase our products, we will have expended significant resources and receive no revenue in return. In addition, we may be selected
as the vendor of choice by these foreign customers but never receive the funding necessary to purchase our product due to political
or economic reasons.
We
are marketing our DVM-250, DVM-250 Plus event recorder and FirstVU HD products to commercial customers, which is a relatively
new sales channel for us and we may experience problems in gaining acceptance.
The
principal target commercial market for our event recorder products is commercial fleet operators, such as taxi cabs, limousine
services, transit buses, ambulance services and a variety of delivery services. In addition, we are marketing our First HD to
commercial customers. These are relatively new sales channels for us and we may experience difficulty gaining acceptance of our
other products by the targeted customers. Our sales of such products will be subject to budget constraints of both the large and
small prospective customers, which could result in a significant reduction in our anticipated revenues. Certain of such companies
have experienced budgetary and financial pressures because of the recent recession and slow recovery and their impact on their
revenues, all of which may negatively impact their ability to purchase our products. Thus, even if prospective customers want
to acquire our products, they may be unable to do so because of such factors. Further, even if such companies have the necessary
funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision-making policies and procedures.
We
are operating in a developing market and there is uncertainty as to market acceptance of our technology and products.
The
markets for our new and enhanced products and technology are developing and rapidly evolving. They are characterized by an increasing
number of market entrants who have developed or are developing a wide variety of products and technologies, a number of which
offer certain of the features that our products offer. Because of these factors, demand and market acceptance for new products
are subject to a high level of uncertainty. There can be no assurance that our technology and products will become widely accepted.
It is also difficult to predict with any assurance the future growth rate, if any, and size of the market. If a substantial market
fails to develop, develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors or if our products do not achieve or
continue to achieve market acceptance, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely
affected.
Our
technology may also be marketed and licensed to device manufacturers for inclusion in the products and equipment they market and
sell as an embedded solution. As with other new products and technologies designed to enhance or replace existing products or
technologies or change product designs, these potential partners may be reluctant to integrate our digital video recording technology
into their systems unless the technology and products are proven to be both reliable and available at a competitive price. Even
assuming product acceptance, our potential partners may be required to redesign their systems to effectively use our digital video
recording technology. The time and costs necessary for such redesign could delay or prevent market acceptance of our technology
and products. A lack of, or delay in, market acceptance of our digital video recording technology and products would adversely
affect our operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to market our technology and products successfully or that
any of our technology or products will be accepted in the marketplace.
We
expend significant resources in anticipation of a sale due to our lengthy sales cycle and may receive no revenue in return.
Generally,
law enforcement and other agencies and commercial fleet and mass transit operators that may consider using our products must analyze
a wide range of issues before committing to purchase products like ours, including training costs, product reliability and budgetary
constraints. The length of our sales cycle may range from several months to a year or more. We may incur substantial selling costs
and expend significant effort in connection with the evaluation of our products by potential customers before they place an order.
Initial orders by agencies typically are for a small number of units that are used to evaluate the products. If these potential
customers do not purchase our products, we will have expended significant resources and have received no revenue in return.
Our
market is characterized by new products and rapid technological change.
The
market for our products is characterized by rapidly changing technology and frequent new product introductions. Our future success
will depend in part on our ability to enhance our existing technologies and products and to introduce new products and technologies
to meet changing customer requirements. We are currently devoting, and intend to continue to devote, significant resources toward
the development of new digital video recording technology and products both as stand-alone products and embedded solutions in
third party products and systems. There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete the development of these technologies
and related products in a timely fashion or that our current or future products will satisfy the needs of the digital video recording
market. There can also be no assurance that digital video recording products and technologies developed by others will not adversely
affect our competitive position or render our products or technologies non-competitive or obsolete.
We
depend on sales from our in-car video products and body-worn cameras and if these products become obsolete or not widely accepted,
our growth prospects will be diminished.
We
derived our revenues in 2018 and to date in 2019 predominantly from sales of our in-car video systems, including the DVM-800,
our largest selling product, and the FirstVU HD body-worn camera, our second largest selling product. We expect to continue to
depend on sales of these products during 2019. A decrease in the prices of, or the demand for our in-car video products, or the
failure to achieve broad market acceptance of our new product offerings, would significantly harm our growth prospects, operating
results and financial condition.
We
substantially depend on our research and development activities to design new products and upgrades to existing products and if
these products are not widely accepted, or we encounter difficulties and delays in launching these new products, our growth prospects
will be diminished.
We
have a number of active research and development projects underway that are intended to launch new products or upgrades to existing
products. We may incur substantial costs and/or delays in completion of these activities that may not result in viable products
or may not be received well by our potential customers. We incurred $462,171 and $440,120 in research and development expenses
during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which represent a substantial expense in relation to our
total revenues and net losses. If we are unsuccessful in bringing these products from the engineering prototype phase to commercial
production, we could incur additional expenses (in addition to those already spent) without receiving revenues from the new products.
Also, these new products may fail to achieve broad market acceptance and may not generate revenue to cover expenses incurred to
design, develop, produce and market the new product offerings. Substantial delays in the launch of one or more products could
negatively impact our revenues and increase our costs, which could significantly harm our growth prospects, operating results
and financial condition.
If
we are unable to compete in our market, you may lose all or part of your investment.
The
law enforcement and security surveillance markets are extremely competitive. Competitive factors in these industries include ease
of use, quality, portability, versatility, reliability, accuracy and cost. There are companies with direct competitive technology
and products in the law enforcement and surveillance markets for all our products and those we have in development. Many of these
competitors have significant advantages over us, including greater financial, technical, marketing and manufacturing resources,
more extensive distribution channels, larger customer bases and faster response times to adapt new or emerging technologies and
changes in customer requirements. Our primary competitors include L-3 Mobile-Vision, Inc., Coban Technologies, Inc., WatchGuard,
Kustom Signals, Panasonic System Communications Company, International Police Technologies, Inc. and a number of other competitors
who sell or may in the future sell in-car video systems to law enforcement agencies. Our primary competitors in the body-worn
camera market include Axon, Reveal Media and VieVU, Inc. We face similar and intense competitive factors for our event recorders
in the mass transit markets as we do in the law enforcement and security surveillance markets. We will also compete with any company
making surveillance devices for commercial use. Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical marketing, and manufacturing
resources than we do. Our primary competitors in the commercial fleet sector include Lytx, Inc. (previously DriveCam, Inc.) and
SmartDrive Systems.
There
can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in these markets. Further, there can be no assurance that new
and existing companies will not enter the law enforcement and security surveillance markets in the future.
Although
we believe that our products will be distinguishable from those of our competitors based on their technological features and functionality
at an attractive value proposition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to penetrate any of our anticipated competitors’
portions of the market. Many of our anticipated competitors may have existing relationships with equipment or device manufacturers
that may impede our ability to market our technology to those potential customers and build market share. There can be no assurance
that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressures will not have
a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If we are not successful in competing against
our current and future competitors, you could lose your entire investment. See “Business” for additional information.
Defects
in our products could impair our ability to sell our products or could result in litigation and other significant costs.
Any
significant defects in our products may result in, among other things, delay in time-to-market, loss of market acceptance and
sales of our products, diversion of development resources, and injury to our reputation, or increased warranty costs. Because
our products are technologically complex, they may contain defects that cannot be detected prior to shipment. These defects could
harm our reputation and impair our ability to sell our products. The costs we may incur in correcting any product defects may
be substantial and could decrease our profit margins. In 2018 and 2017 we had certain product quality issues with the DVM -800
and FirstVU HD, which adversely affected our revenues and operating results.
In
addition, errors, defects or other performance problems could result in financial or other damages to our customers, which could
result in litigation. Product liability litigation, even if we prevail, would be time consuming and costly to defend. Our product
liability insurance may not be adequate to cover claims. Our product liability insurance coverage per occurrence is $1,000,000,
with a $2,000,000 aggregate for our general business liability coverage and an additional $1,000,000 per occurrence. Our excess
or umbrella liability coverage per occurrence and in aggregate is $5,000,000.
Product
defects can be caused by design errors, programming bugs, or defects in component parts or raw materials. This is common to every
product manufactured which is based on modern electronic and computer technology. Because of the extreme complexity of digital
in-car video systems, one of the key concerns is operating software robustness. Some of the software modules are provided to us
by outside vendors under license agreements, while other portions are developed by our own software engineers. As with any software-dependent
product, “bugs” can occur, even with rigorous testing before release of the product. The software included in our
digital video rear view mirror products is designed to be “field upgradeable” so that changes or fixes can be made
by the end user by downloading new software through the internet. We intend to incorporate this technology into any future products
as well, providing a quick resolution to potential software issues that may arise over time.
As
with all electronic devices, hardware issues can arise from many sources. The component electronic parts we utilize come from
many sources around the world. We attempt to mitigate the possibility of shipping defective products by fully testing sub-assemblies
and thoroughly testing assembled units before they are shipped out to our customers. Because of the nature and complexity of some
of the electronic components used, such as microprocessor chips, memory systems, and zoom video camera modules, it is not technically
or financially realistic to attempt to test every single aspect of every single component and their potential interactions. By
using components from reputable and reliable sources, and by using professional engineering, assembly, and testing methods, we
seek to limit the possibility of defects slipping through. In addition to internal testing, we now have thousands of units in
the hands of law enforcement departments and in use every day. Over the past years of field use we have addressed a number of
subtle issues and made refinements requested by the end-user.
We
are dependent on key personnel.
Our
success will be largely dependent upon the efforts of our executive officers, Stanton E. Ross and Thomas J. Heckman. We do not
have employment agreements with Messrs. Ross or Heckman. The loss of the services of these individuals could have a material adverse
effect on our business and prospects. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such individuals
in the future. We have not obtained key-man life insurance policies on these individuals. We are also dependent to a substantial
degree on our technical, research and development staff. Our success will be dependent upon our ability to hire and retain additional
qualified technical, research, management, marketing and financial personnel. We will compete with other companies with greater
financial and other resources for such personnel. Although we have not had trouble in attracting qualified personnel to date,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our present personnel or acquire additional qualified personnel as and
when needed.
We
are dependent on manufacturers and suppliers.
We
purchase, and intend to continue to purchase, substantially all the components for our products and some entire products, from
a limited number of manufacturers and suppliers, most of whom are located outside the United States. Our internal process is principally
to assemble the various components and subassemblies manufactured by our suppliers and test the assembled product prior to shipping
to our customers. We do not intend to directly manufacture any of the equipment or parts to be used in our products. Our reliance
upon outside manufacturers and suppliers, including foreign suppliers, is expected to continue, increase in scope and involves
several risks, including limited control over the availability of components, and products themselves and related delivery schedules,
pricing and product quality. We may be subject to political and social risks associated with specific regions of the world including
those that may be subject to changes in tariffs that may have substantial affects on our product costs and supply chain reliability
and availability. We may experience delays, additional expenses and lost sales if we are required to locate and qualify alternative
manufacturers and suppliers.
A
few of the semiconductor chip components for our products are produced by a very small number of specialized manufacturers. Currently,
we purchase one essential semiconductor chip from a single manufacturer. While we believe that there are alternative sources of
supply, if, for any reason, we are precluded from obtaining such a semiconductor chip from this manufacturer, we may experience
long delays in product delivery due to the difficulty and complexity involved in producing the required component and we may also
be required to pay higher costs for our components.
While
we do the final assembly, testing, packaging, and shipment of certain of our products in-house, a number of our component parts
are manufactured by subcontractors. These subcontractors include: raw circuit board manufacturers; circuit board assembly houses;
injection plastic molders; metal parts fabricators; and other custom component providers. While we are dependent upon these subcontractors
to the extent that they are producing custom subassemblies and components necessary for manufacturing our products, we still own
the designs and intellectual property involved. This means that the failure of any one contractor to perform may cause delays
in production. However, we can mitigate potential interruptions by maintaining “buffer stocks” of critical parts and
subassemblies and by using multiple sources for critical components. We also can move our subcontracting to alternate providers.
Being forced to use a different subcontractor could cause production interruptions ranging from negligible, such as a few weeks,
to very costly, such as four to six months. Further, the failure of a foreign manufacturer to deliver products to us timely, in
sufficient quantities and with the requisite quality would have a material adverse impact on our business, operations and financial
condition.
The
only components that would require a complete redesign of our digital video electronics package are the chips manufactured by
Texas Instruments. While there are competitive products available, each chip has unique characteristics that would require extensive
tailoring of product designs to use it. The Texas Instrument chip is the heart of our video processing system. If Texas Instruments
became unwilling or unable to provide us with these chips, we would be forced to redesign our digital video encoder and decoder
systems. Such a complete redesign could take substantial time (over six months) to complete. We attempt to mitigate the potential
for interruption by maintaining continuous stocks of these chips to support several months’ worth of production. In addition,
we regularly check on the end-of-life status of these parts to make sure that we will know well in advance of any decisions by
Texas Instruments to discontinue these parts. There are other semiconductors that are integral to our product design and which
could cause delays if discontinued, but not to the same scale as the Texas Instrument chips.
Although
we have not historically had significant supply chain issues with these manufacturers, suppliers, and subcontractors, there can
be no assurance that we will be able to retain our present relationships and should we lose these manufacturers, suppliers, and
subcontractors, our business would be adversely affected.
We
are uncertain of our ability to protect technology through patents.
Our
ability to compete effectively will depend on our success in protecting our proprietary technology, both in the United
States and abroad. We have filed for at least 37 patents for protection in the United States and certain other countries to
cover certain design aspects of our products. We license the critical technology on which our products are based from
Sasken-Ingenient, Inc. (“Sasken”) and Lead Technologies, Inc. (“Lead”) pursuant to license
agreements. However, the technology licensed from these parties is critical because it is the basis of our current product
design. We may choose to use other video encoding and decoding technology in future products, thus lessening our dependence
on our licenses with these companies.
We
have been issued at least 22 patents to date by the USPTO. In addition, we have at least 15 patent applications that are still
under review by the U.S. Patent Office and, therefore, we have not yet been issued all the patents that we applied for in the
United States. No assurance can be given that any patents relating to our existing technology will be issued from the United States
or any foreign patent offices, that we will receive any patents in the future based on our continued development of our technology,
or that our patent protection within and/or outside of the United States will be sufficient to deter others, legally or otherwise,
from developing or marketing competitive products utilizing our technologies.
If
our patents were to be denied as filed, we would seek to obtain different patents for other parts of our technology. If our main
patent, which relates to the placement of the in-car video system in a rear-view mirror, were to be challenged and denied, it
could potentially allow our competitors to build very similar devices. Currently, this patent is not being challenged. However,
we believe that very few of our competitors would be capable of this because of the level of technical sophistication and level
of miniaturization required. Even if we obtain patents, there can be no assurance that they will be enforceable to prevent others
from developing and marketing competitive products or methods. If we bring an infringement action relating to any future patents,
it may require the diversion of substantial funds from our operations and may require management to expend efforts that might
otherwise be devoted to our operations. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in enforcing our patent
rights.
Further,
if any patents are issued there can be no assurance that patent infringement claims in the United States or in other countries
will not be asserted against us by a competitor or others, or if asserted, that we will be successful in defending against such
claims. If one of our products is adjudged to infringe patents of others with the likely consequence of a damage award, we may
be enjoined from using and selling such product or be required to obtain a royalty-bearing license, if available on acceptable
terms. Alternatively, if a license is not offered, we might be required, if possible, to redesign those aspects of the product
held to infringe to avoid infringement liability. Any redesign efforts we undertake might be expensive, could delay the introduction
or the re-introduction of our products into certain markets, or may be so significant as to be impractical.
We
are involved in litigation relating to our intellectual property.
We
are subject to various legal proceedings arising from normal business operations. Although there can be no assurances, based on
the information currently available, management believes that it is probable that the ultimate outcome of each of the actions
will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. However, an adverse outcome in certain of the
actions could have a material adverse effect on our financial results in the period in which it is recorded.
Axon
Enterprises, Inc. – (Formerly Taser International, Inc.)
. The Company owns U.S. Patent No. 9,253,452 (the ” ’452
Patent”), which generally covers the automatic activation and coordination of multiple recording devices in response to
a triggering event, such as a law enforcement officer activating the light bar on the vehicle.
The
Company filed suit on January 15, 2016 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (Case No: 2:16-cv-02032) against
Axon, alleging willful patent infringement against Axon’s body camera product line and Signal auto-activation product. The
Company is seeking both monetary damages and a permanent injunction against Axon for infringement of the ‘452 Patent.
In
addition to the infringement claims, the Company brought claims alleging that Axon conspired to keep the Company out of the marketplace
by engaging in improper, unethical, and unfair competition. The amended lawsuit alleges Axon bribed officials and otherwise conspired
to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both state law and federal antitrust law. The Company’s lawsuit
also seeks monetary and injunctive relief, including treble damages, for these alleged violations.
Axon
filed an answer, which denied the patent infringement allegations on April 1, 2016. In addition, Axon filed a motion to dismiss
all allegations in the complaint on March 4, 2016 for which the Company filed an amended complaint on March 18, 2016 to address
certain technical deficiencies in the pleadings. Digital amended its complaint and Axon renewed its motion to seek dismissal of
the allegations that it had bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation
of both state law and federal antitrust law on April 1, 2016. Formal discovery commenced on April 12, 2016 with respect to the
patent related claims. In January 2017, the Court granted Axon’s motion to dismiss the portion of the lawsuit regarding
claims that it had bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both state
law and federal antitrust law. On May 2, 2018, the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court’s ruling relative to the
antitrust portion of the lawsuit and on October 1, 2018 the Supreme Court denied Digital Ally’s petition for review.
In
December 2016 and January 2017, Axon filed two petitions for Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) against the ‘452 Patent.
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) rejected both of Axon’s petitions. Axon is now statutorily
precluded from filing any more IPR petitions against the ‘452 Patent.
The
District Court litigation in Kansas was temporarily stayed following the filing of the petitions for IPR. However, on November
17, 2017, the Federal District Court of Kansas rejected Axon’s request to maintain the stay. With this significant ruling,
the parties will now proceed towards trial. Since litigation has resumed, the Court has issued a claim construction order (also
called a Markman Order) where it sided with the Company on all disputes and denied Axon’s attempts to limit the scope of
the claims. Following the Markman Order, the Court set all remaining deadlines in the case. Fact discovery closed on October 8,
2018, and a Final Pretrial Conference took place on January 16, 2019. The parties filed motions for summary judgment on January
31, 2019, and the Court granted Axon’s motion for summary judgment in June 2019. The Company intends to appeal this decision
with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
Enforcement
Video, LLC d/b/a WatchGuard Video
. On May 27, 2016, the Company filed suit against WatchGuard, (Case No. 2:16-cv-02349-JTM-JPO)
alleging patent infringement based on WatchGuard’s VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product lines.
The
USPTO has granted multiple patents to the Company with claims covering numerous features, such as automatically activating all
deployed cameras in response to the activation of just one camera. Additionally, Digital Ally’s patent claims cover automatic
coordination as well as digital synchronization between multiple recording devices. It also has patent coverage directed to the
coordination between a multi-camera system and an officer’s smartphone, which allows an officer to more readily assess an
event on the scene while an event is taking place or immediately after it has occurred.
The
Company’s lawsuit alleged that WatchGuard incorporated this patented technology into its VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product
lines without its permission. Specifically, Digital Ally accused WatchGuard of infringing three patents: the U.S. Patent No. 8,781,292
(the ” ’292 Patent”) and ‘452 Patents and U.S. Patent No. 9,325,950 the (” ’950 Patent”).
The Company aggressively challenged WatchGuard’s infringing conduct, seeking both monetary damages, as well as seeking a
permanent injunction preventing WatchGuard from continuing to sell its VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product lines using Digital Ally’s
own technology to compete against it. On May 8, 2017, WatchGuard filed a petition seeking IPR of the ‘950 Patent. The Company
opposed that petition and on December 4, 2017, The Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) rejected the request of
WatchGuard Video to institute an IPR on the ‘950 Patent. The lawsuit also involved the ‘292 Patent and the ‘452
Patent, the ‘452 Patent being the same patent asserted against Axon. The ‘292 Patent previously was subject to the
IPR process with the USPTO, but in June 2018, the PTO rejected Axon’s arguments and did not invalidate the ‘292 Patent.
WatchGuard had previously agreed to be bound by Axon’s IPRs and, as such, WatchGuard is now statutorily barred from any
further IPR’s challenges with respect to the ‘950, ‘452, and ‘292 Patents. Since the defeat of Axon’s
‘292 Patent IPR, the Court has lifted the stay and set a schedule which had moved the case towards trial. On May 13, 2019,
the parties resolved the dispute and executed a settlement agreement in the form of a Release and License Agreement. The litigation
has been dismissed as a result of this settlement.
The
resolution of the dispute centers includes the following key terms:
|
●
|
WatchGuard
will pay Digital Ally a one-time, lump sum settlement payment of six (6) million dollars.
|
|
●
|
Digital
Ally has granted WatchGuard a perpetual covenant not to sue if WatchGuard’s products incorporate agreed-upon modified
recording functionality.
|
|
●
|
Digital
Ally has also granted WatchGuard a license to the ‘292 Patent and the ‘452 Patent (and related patents, now existing
and yet-to-issue) through December 31, 2023. The parties have agreed to negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve any
alleged infringement that occurs after the license period expires.
|
|
●
|
The
Parties have further agreed to release each other from all claims or liabilities pre-existing the settlement.
|
|
●
|
As
part of the settlement, the parties agreed that WatchGuard is making no admission that it has infringed any of Digital Ally’s
patents.

PGA
Tour, Inc.
On January 22, 2019 the PGA Tour, Inc. (the “PGA”) filed suit against the Company in the Federal District
Court for the District of Kansas (Case No. 2:19-cv-0033-CM-KGG) alleging breach of contract and breach of implied covenant of
good faith and fair dealing relative to the Web.com Tour Title Sponsor Agreement (the “Agreement”). The contract was
executed on April 16, 2015 by and between the parties. Under the Agreement, Digital Ally would be a title sponsor of and receive
certain naming and other rights and benefits associated with the Web.com Tour for 2015 through 2019 in exchange for Digital Ally’s
payment to PGA Tour of annual sponsorship fees.
The
suit has been resolved and the case has been dismissed with prejudice on April 17, 2019.
Utility
Associates, Inc.
On October 25, 2013, the Company commenced an action in the United States District Court for the District
of Kansas (2:13-cv-02550-SAC) to eliminate threats by a competitor, Utility Associates, Inc. (“Utility”), of alleged
patent infringement regarding U.S. Patent No. 6,831,556 (the “ ‘556 Patent”). Specifically, the lawsuit seeks
a declaration that the Company’s mobile video surveillance systems do not infringe any claim of the ‘556 Patent. The
Company became aware that Utility had mailed letters to current and prospective purchasers of its mobile video surveillance systems
threatening that the use of such systems purchased from third parties not licensed to the ‘556 Patent would create liability
for them for patent infringement.
In
addition, the Company began proceedings to invalidate the ‘556 Patent through a request for IPR of the ‘556 patent
at the USPTO. On July 27, 2015, the USPTO invalidated key claims in Utility’s ‘556 Patent. The final decision from
the USPTO significantly curtailed Utility’s ability to threaten law enforcement agencies, municipalities, and others with
infringement of the ‘556 Patent. Utility appealed this decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal affirmed the ruling of the USPTO summarily thus concluding the matter.
On
June 6, 2014 the Company filed a separate Unfair Competition action against Utility in the United States District Court for the
District of Kansas. In that lawsuit it contended that Utility has disparaged the Company and illegally interfered with its contracts,
customer relationships and business expectancies by falsely asserting to its customers and others that its products violate the
‘556 Patent, of which Utility claims to be the holder. In addition to damages, the Company sought permanent injunctive relief,
prohibiting Utility from continuing to threaten or otherwise interfere with the Company’s customers. On March 4, 2015, an
initial hearing was held upon the Company’s request for injunctive relief.
Based
upon facts revealed at a March 4, 2015 injunction hearing, on March 16, 2015, the Company sought leave to amend its complaint
in the unfair competition suit to assert additional claims against Utility. Those new claims included claims of actual or attempted
monopolization, in violation of § 2 of the Sherman Act, claims arising under a new Georgia statute that prohibits threats
of patent infringement in “bad faith,” and additional claims of unfair competition/false advertising in violation
of § 63(a) of the Lanham Act. The Court concluded its injunction hearing on April 22, 2015, and allowed the Company leave
to add these claims, but denied its preliminary injunction. Subsequent to the injunction hearing, Utility withdrew from the market
the in-car video recording device that it had sold in competition with the Company’s own products of similar function and
which Utility had attempted to market using threats of patent infringement. After discovery closed, Utility filed a motion for
summary judgment and the Company filed a motion for partial summary judgment. On March 30, 2017, the Court entered its order granting
Utility’s motion and denying the Company’s motion for summary judgment. The Company believed the District Court had
made several errors when ruling on the motions for summary judgment, and filed an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals
for the Tenth Circuit (the “10
th
Circuit”). While the appeal was pending, Utility filed a motion for the
recovery from the Company of some $800,000 in alleged attorney’s fees as provided, purportedly, under the Lanham Patent
and Uniform Trade Secrets Act. That motion was denied in its entirety by final judgement entered February 14, 2018. On February
16, 2018, the 10
th
Circuit issued its decision affirming the decision of the District Court. The Company filed a petition
for rehearing by the panel and
en banc
which has also been denied. Utility has filed its own motion for the recovery of
attorney fees, on appeal in the alleged amount of $125,000. That motion was denied by the 10th Circuit. In the District Court,
Utility failed or declined to file any request for the recovery of costs and the time for the award thereof, as well as for any
further appeal by either party, has now expired.
The
Company is also involved as a plaintiff and defendant in ordinary, routine litigation and administrative proceedings incidental
to its business from time to time, including customer collections, vendor and employment-related matters. The Company believes
the likely outcome of any other pending cases and proceedings will not be material to its business or its financial condition.
We
are uncertain of our ability to protect our proprietary technology and information.
In
addition to seeking patent protection, we rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological advancement to seek to
achieve and thereafter maintain a competitive advantage. Although we have entered into or intend to enter into confidentiality
and invention agreements with our employees, consultants and advisors, no assurance can be given that such agreements will be
honored or that we will be able to effectively protect our rights to our unpatented trade secrets and know-how. Moreover, no assurance
can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise
gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.
Foreign
currency fluctuations may affect our competitiveness and sales in foreign markets.
The
relative change in currency values creates fluctuations in our product pricing for potential international customers. These changes
in foreign end-user costs may result in lost orders and reduce the competitiveness of our products in certain foreign markets.
These changes may also negatively affect the financial condition of some existing or potential foreign customers and reduce or
eliminate their future orders of our products. We also import selected components which are used in the manufacturing of some
of our products. Although our purchase orders are in the United States dollar, weakness in the United States dollar could lead
to price increases for the components.
Risks
related to our license arrangements.
We
have licensing agreements with Sasken and Lead regarding certain software used as the platform for the proprietary software we
have developed for use in our products. These licensing agreements have specified terms and are renewable on an annual basis unless
both parties determine not to renew them and provided the parties are in compliance with the agreements. If we fail to make the
payments under these licenses or if these licenses are not renewed for any reason, it would cause us significant time and expense
to redevelop our software on a different software platform, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.
Our
revenues and operating results may fluctuate unexpectedly from quarter to quarter, which may cause our stock price to decline.
Our
revenues and operating results have varied significantly in the past and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future
due to various factors that are both in and outside our control. Thus, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating
results may not be meaningful in the short-term, and our performance in a particular period may not be indicative of our performance
in any future period.
We
are a party to several lawsuits both as a plaintiff and as a defendant in which we may ultimately not prevail resulting in losses
and may cause our stock price to decline.
We
are involved as a plaintiff and defendant in routine litigation and administrative proceedings incidental to our business from
time to time, including customer collections, vendor and employment-related matters. See “Prospectus Summary” and
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional information.
We believe that the likely outcome of any other pending cases and proceedings will not be material to our business or financial
condition. However, there can be no assurance that we will prevail in the litigation or proceedings or that we may not have to
pay damages or other awards to the other party.

DILUTION
The
net tangible book value of our common stock as of March 31, 2019, was approximately $(0.35) per share of common stock based upon
11,126,055 shares of common stock outstanding on such date. As adjusted net tangible book value per share represents the amount
of our total tangible assets reduced by the amount of our total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of common stock
outstanding after giving effect to the receipt of gross proceeds of $1,037,988 ($1,153,320 principal amount of Registered Notes)
and the issuance of the Commitment Shares and the Registered Notes in this offering.
After
giving effect to the issuance of the Commitment Shares offered hereby and the entire conversion of the Registered Notes, assuming
a Conversion Price of $1.40 per share of our common stock, and after deducting estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net
tangible book value as of March 31, 2019 would have been $(2,750,772 or $(0.23) per share. This represents an immediate increase
in net tangible book value of $0.12 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of
$1.63 per share to purchasers in this offering, as illustrated in the following table:

DESCRIPTION
OF THE SECURITIES THAT WE ARE OFFERING
Commitment
Shares
See
“Description of Capital Stock—Common Stock” on page 7 of the accompanying prospectus for a description of the
material terms of our Commitment Shares, which are the shares of our common stock being issued to the investors pursuant to the
Securities Purchase Agreement.
Registered
Notes
We
will issue up to an aggregate of $1,153,320 in original principal amount of the Registered Notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase
Agreement by and among us and the investors named therein. The following description relates to the particular terms of the Registered
Notes and supplements, to the extent inconsistent therewith, the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities
set forth in the accompanying prospectus.
Maturity
Date
The
Registered Notes will mature on August 4, 2020, unless earlier converted.
Interest
The
Registered Notes will bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, twelve (12) months’ of which shall be guaranteed, payable
on the maturity date and on each conversion, prepayment, event of default, and/or other acceleration of principal outstanding
on each such Registered Note. All interest is payable in cash, except for the payments of interest in connection with the Monthly
Repayments (as defined in the Notes) or on any Conversion Date (as defined in the Notes), which payments shall be in shares of
our common stock. The interest rate will increase by the lesser of 12.5% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable
law upon the occurrence of any event of default that results in the eventual acceleration of the Registered Notes.
Conversion
Holders may convert their Registered Notes
at their option at any time prior to such holder’s Registered Note being paid in full. We may convert all, or any part,
of the Registered Notes (but in no event less than an amount equal to the lesser of (x) two (2) times the daily average trading
volume of our common stock for the prior twenty (20) consecutive trading days, and (y) all of the conversion amount then remaining
under the Registered Notes) at any time that (i) the daily VWAP for the prior twenty (20) consecutive trading days exceeds $4.50,
(ii) no event of default under the Notes has occurred and (iii) certain other conditions have been satisfied. Upon
conversion, we will deliver shares of our common stock as described in this prospectus supplement.
The
Conversion Price of the Registered Notes equals $1.40, and is subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Registered Notes.
The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments upon any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification,
or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the price of our shares of common stock. In such case, the
then Conversion Price is multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator equals the number of shares of our common stock outstanding
immediately before such event, and the denominator equals the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after
such event. In addition, so long as the Notes are outstanding, we shall not enter into any financing transaction pursuant to which
we sell our securities at price lower than the Conversion Price with out the written consent of the Note holders.
Limitations
on Conversion
A
Registered Note may not be converted and shares of our common stock may not be issued under the Registered Note if, after giving
effect to the conversion or issuance, the holder, together with its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the
outstanding shares of our Common Stock;
provided, that
, upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to us, the
holder may increase the limitation up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the conversion or issuance.
Prepayment
We
may prepay any portion of the principal amount of the Registered Notes, all accrued and unpaid interest (including, without limitation,
guaranteed interest on any outstanding principal) relating to such prepaid portion of the principal and all other amounts due
under the Notes at any time upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Registered Note holders, so long as no event
of default exists under the Notes. If we exercise our right to prepay a Registered Note, we must make a payment to the holder
of an amount in cash equal to the sum of (x) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Registered Note and (y) all accrued
but unpaid guaranteed interest, if such prepayment occurs on or prior to January 31, 2020, and (ii) an amount in cash equal
to the product of (x) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Registered Note and all accrued but unpaid interest, and (y)
110%, if such prepayment occurs after January 31, 2020. We must also make such prepayments to the holders upon (i) our
consummation of any public or private offering or other financing or capital-raising transaction in which we receive gross proceeds
of at least $7.5 million or (ii) our receipt of at least $7.5 million in cash from any action, suit or proceeding (the date on
which such prepayment occurs, the “Mandatory Prepayment Date”).
Piggy-Back
Registration Rights
At
any time during which the Notes or the Purchase Warrants are outstanding and there is not an effective registration statement
covering all of the Commitment Shares, all shares underlying the Notes and the Warrant Shares (the “Securities”),
and we determine to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering of any of our equity securities
(other than a draw down from a shelf registration statement, or a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their equivalent
filings), we must notify such investors of such determination and, if within 15 days after the date of delivery of such notice,
any investor shall so request in writing, we must include in such registration statement all or part of such Securities such investor
requests to be registered. However, we shall not be required to register any Securities that are eligible for resale pursuant
to Rule 144 (without volume restrictions or current public information requirements) or that are the subject of a then effective
registration statement.
Secured
Obligations
The
Registered Notes will be secured obligations of the Company, but subordinate to our senior lender.

principal amount of Notes, along with the shares of our common stock issuable from time to time upon conversion of such additional
Notes, the Purchase Warrants and the Warrant Shares. The terms of such additional Notes are identical to the terms
of the Registered Notes offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. The Purchase Warrants

Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement

RISK
FACTORS
Investing
in our securities involves significant risk. The prospectus supplement applicable to each offering of our securities will contain
a discussion of the risks applicable to an investment in Digital Ally, Inc. Prior to making a decision about investing in our
securities, you should carefully consider the specific factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the applicable
prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement
or appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions
discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as revised or supplemented
by our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or our Registration Statement on Form S-1 dated May 23, 2018, or our current
reports on Form 8-K that we have filed with the SEC, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, and which may be amended,
supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. The risks and uncertainties
we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently
deem immaterial may also affect our operations. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your
investment in the offered securities.
CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business”, contain forward-looking statements that include information
relating to future events, future financial performance, strategies, expectations, our competitive environment, regulation and
availability of resources. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding: proposed new products
or services; our statements concerning litigation or other matters; statements concerning projections, predictions, expectations,
estimates or forecasts for our business, financial and operating results and future economic performance; statements of management’s
goals and objectives; trends affecting our financial condition, results of operations or future prospects; our financing plans
or growth strategies; and other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. Words such as “may”,
“will”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “predicts”, “potential”,
“continue”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “future”, “intends”, “plans”,
“believes” and “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as similar statements in the future tense,
identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking
statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications
of the times at, or by which, that performance or those results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information
available at the time they are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events,
and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from what is expressed
in or suggested by the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date they are made. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We assume
no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors
affecting forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws. If we do update one or more
forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking
statements.
Factors
that could cause or contribute to our actual results differing materially from those discussed herein or for our stock price to
be adversely affected include, but are not limited to: (1) our losses in recent years, including fiscal 2017 and 2016, and our
ability to pay the Notes, June Notes (as defined below) and Secured Note (as defined below) when due; (2) macro-economic risks
from the effects of the decrease in budgets for the law-enforcement community; (3) our ability to increase revenues, increase
our margins and return to consistent profitability in the current economic and competitive environment, including whether deliveries
will resume under the AMR contract; (4) our operation in developing markets and uncertainty as to market acceptance of our technology
and new products; (5) the availability of funding from federal, state and local governments to facilitate the budgets of law enforcement
agencies, including the timing, amount and restrictions on such funding; (6) our ability to deliver our new product offerings
as scheduled in 2018 and have such new products perform as planned or advertised; (7) whether we will be able to increase the
sales, domestically and internationally, for our products, and the degree to which the interest shown in our products, including
the DVM-800 HD, FirstVU HD, VuLink, VuVault.net, FleetVU and MicroVU HD, in 2018; (8) our ability to maintain or expand our share
of the market for our products in the domestic and international markets in which we compete, including increasing our international
revenues to their historical levels; (9) our ability to produce our products in a cost-effective manner; (10) competition from
larger, more established companies with far greater economic and human resources; (11) our ability to attract and retain quality
employees; (12) risks related to dealing with governmental entities as customers; (13) our expenditure of significant resources
in anticipation of sales due to our lengthy sales cycle and the potential to receive no revenue in return; (14) characterization
of our market by new products and rapid technological change; (15) our dependence on sales of our DVM-800, DVM-800 HD, FirstVU,
First VU HD and DVM-250 products; (16) potential that stockholders may lose all or part of their investment if we are unable to
compete in our markets and return to profitability; (17) defects in our products that could impair our ability to sell our products
or could result in litigation and other significant costs; (18) our dependence on key personnel; (19) our reliance on third-party
distributors and sales representatives for part of our marketing capability; (20) our dependence on a few manufacturers and suppliers
for components of our products and our dependence on domestic and foreign manufacturers for certain of our products; (21) our
ability to protect technology through patents and to protect our proprietary technology and information as trade secrets and through
other similar means; (22) our ability to generate more recurring cloud and service revenues; (23) risks related to our license
arrangements; (24) our revenues and operating results may fluctuate unexpectedly from quarter to quarter; (25) sufficient voting
power by coalitions of a few of our larger stockholders, including directors and officers, to make corporate governance decisions
that could have significant effect on us and the other stockholders; (26) sale of substantial amounts of our Common Stock that
may have a depressive effect on the market price of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock; (27) possible issuance of Common
Stock subject to options and warrants that may dilute the interest of stockholders; (28) our nonpayment of dividends and lack
of plans to pay dividends in the future; (29) future sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock that could depress
the trading price of our Common Stock, lower our value and make it more difficult for us to raise capital; (30) our additional
securities available for issuance, which, if issued, could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our Common Stock; (31)
our stock price is likely to be highly volatile due to a number of factors, including a relatively limited public float; (32)
whether the legal actions that the Company is taking or has taken against Utility Associates, Axon and WatchGuard will achieve
their intended objectives; (33) whether the USPTO rulings will curtail, eliminate or otherwise have an effect on the actions of
Axon Enterprises, Inc. ( “Axon” - formerly known as Taser International, Inc.) and Enforcement Video, LLC dba WatchGuard
Video (“Watchguard”) and Utility Associates respecting us, our products and customers; (34) whether the remaining
two claims under the U.S. Patent No. 6,831,556 (the “ ‘556 Patent”) have applicability to us or our products;
and (35) whether our patented VuLink technology is becoming the
de-facto
“standard” for agencies engaged in
deploying state-of-the-art body-worn and in-car camera systems; (36) the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”)
decision on WatchGuard’s petition seeking
Inter Partes
Review (“IPR”) of the U.S. Patent No. 8,781,292
(‘292 Patent); (37) whether such technology will have a significant impact on our revenues in the long-term; and (38) indemnification
of our officers and directors.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
Unless
otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement accompanying this prospectus, we expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of
our securities for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the financing of capital expenditures, refinancings
or recapitalization transactions, acquisitions and additions to our working capital. The actual application of proceeds from the
sale of any particular tranche of securities issued hereunder will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement relating
to such tranche of securities. Until we use the net proceeds from the sale of securities for these purposes, we may place the
net proceeds in temporary investments.
We
will retain broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from the sale of our securities offered by us hereby. Except as
described in any prospectus supplement, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities offered by us
pursuant to this prospectus for working capital, capital expenditures, investments in our subsidiaries, and other general corporate
purposes. We may also use such proceeds to fund acquisitions of businesses, technologies or product lines that complement our
current business or expand our business into new areas. However, we currently have no commitments or agreements for any specific
acquisitions. Pending application of the net proceeds, we intend to invest the net proceeds of the offering of securities by us
in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities.
The
intended application of proceeds from the sale of any particular offering of securities using this prospectus will be described
in the accompanying prospectus supplement relating to such offering. The precise amount and timing of the application of these
proceeds will depend on our funding requirements and the availability and costs of other funds.
See
“Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.

|
Sale
Through Underwriters or Dealers
Only
underwriters named in the prospectus supplement are underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.
If
underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account, including through underwriting,
purchase, security lending or repurchase agreements with us. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one
or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. Underwriters may sell the securities in order to facilitate transactions
in any of our other securities (described in this prospectus or otherwise), including other public or private transactions and
short sales. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more
managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement,
the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will
be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time
any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.
If
dealers are used in the sale of securities offered through this prospectus, we will sell the securities to them as principals.
They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. The prospectus
supplement will include the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.
The
maximum compensation or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer will not be greater than 8% for
the sale of any securities being registered hereunder pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act.
Direct
Sales and Sales Through Agents
We
may sell the securities offered through this prospectus directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. Such
securities may also be sold through agents designated from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved
in the offer or sale of the offered securities and will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless otherwise indicated
in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its
appointment.
We
may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning
of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. The terms of any such sales will be described in the prospectus
supplement.
Delayed
Delivery Contracts
If
the prospectus supplement indicates, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of
institutions to purchase securities at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide
for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described
in the prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those
contracts.
Market
Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions
We
may elect to list offered securities on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market. Any underwriters that we use in the sale
of offered securities may make a market in such securities, but may discontinue such market making at any time without notice.
Therefore, we cannot assure you that the securities will have a liquid trading market.
Certain
persons participating in an offering may engage in over allotment, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and
penalty bids in accordance with rules and regulations under the Exchange Act. Over allotment involves the sale in excess of the
offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions involve bids to purchase the underlying security in the
open market for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities. Syndicate covering transactions involve
purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions.
Penalty
bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the
syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions,
syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence
of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time.
General
Information
Agents,
underwriters, and dealers may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification by us against certain liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act. Our agents, underwriters, and dealers, or their affiliates, may be customers of,
engage in transactions with or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business.

directors at a given meeting, and the minority would not be able to elect any director at that meeting.
Dividends
Each
share of our Common Stock is entitled to receive an equal dividend, if one is declared. We cannot provide any assurance that we
will declare or pay cash dividends on our Common Stock in the future. Any future determination to declare cash dividends will
be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on our financial condition, results
of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Our Board of Directors may determine it to be necessary to retain future earnings (if any) to finance our growth. See “Risk
Factors” and “Dividend Policy.”
Liquidation
If
the Company is liquidated, then assets that remain (if any) after the creditors are paid and the owners of preferred stock receive
liquidation preferences (as applicable) will be distributed to the owners of our Common Stock
pro rata
.
Preemptive
Rights
Owners
of our Common Stock have no preemptive rights. We may sell shares of our Common Stock to third parties without first offering
such shares to current stockholders.
Redemption
Rights
We
do not have the right to buy back shares of our Common Stock except in extraordinary transactions, such as mergers and court approved
bankruptcy reorganizations. Owners of our Common Stock do not ordinarily have the right to require us to buy their Common Stock.
We do not have a sinking fund to provide assets for any buy back.
Conversion
Rights
Shares
of our Common Stock cannot be converted into any other kind of stock except in extraordinary transactions, such as mergers and
court approved bankruptcy reorganizations.
Nonassessability
All
outstanding shares of our Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable.

Anti-Takeover Statutes
Nevada
law provides that an acquiring person who acquires a controlling interest in a corporation may only exercise the voting rights
of control shares if those voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the corporation’s disinterested stockholders
at a special meeting held upon the request of the acquiring person. If the acquiring person is accorded full voting rights and
acquires control shares with at least a majority of all the voting power, then stockholders who did not vote in favor of authorizing
voting rights for those control shares are entitled to payment for the fair value of such stockholders’ shares. A “controlling
interest” is an interest that is sufficient to enable the acquiring person to exercise at least one-fifth of the voting
power of the corporation in the election of directors. “Control shares” are outstanding voting shares that an acquiring
person or associated persons acquire or offer to acquire in an acquisition and those shares acquired during the 90-day period
before the person involved became an acquiring person.
These
provisions of Nevada law apply only to “issuing corporations” as defined therein. An “issuing corporation”
is a Nevada corporation that (a) has 200 or more stockholders, with at least 100 of such stockholders being both stockholders
of record and residents of Nevada, and (b) does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. As of the date
of this prospectus, we do not have 100 stockholders of record that are residents of Nevada. Therefore, these provisions of Nevada
law do not apply to acquisitions of our shares and will not so apply until such time as both of the foregoing conditions are satisfied.
At such time as these provisions of Nevada law may apply to us, they may discourage companies or persons interested in acquiring
a significant interest in or control of our company, regardless of whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our stockholders.
Nevada
law also restricts the ability of a corporation to engage in any combination with an interested stockholder for three years from
when the interested stockholder acquires shares that cause the stockholder to become an interested stockholder, unless the combination
or purchase of shares by the interested stockholder is approved by the Board of Directors before the stockholder became an interested
stockholder. If the combination was not previously approved, then the interested stockholder may only effect a combination after
the three-year period if the stockholder receives approval from a majority of the disinterested shares or the offer satisfies
certain fair price criteria.
An
“interested stockholder” is a person who is:
|
●
|
the
beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation;
or
|
|
●
|
an
affiliate or associate of the corporation and, at any time within three years immediately before the date in question, was
the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly of 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation
|
Our
articles of incorporation and bylaws do not exclude us from these restrictions.
These
provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the Board of Directors and
in the policies formulated by the Board of Directors and to discourage some types of transactions that may involve the actual
or threatened change of control of our company. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal
for the potential restructuring or sale of all or a part of our company. However, these provisions could discourage potential
acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control of our company. They also may have the effect of preventing
changes in our management.
Transfer
Agent
The
transfer agent for our Common Stock is Action Stock Transfer Corporation, located at 2469 E. Fort Union Blvd., Salt Lake City.
UT 84122. Its telephone number is (801) 274-1088.

DESCRIPTION

The
following description, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes
the material terms and provisions of the debt securities that may be offered from time to time under this prospectus. We may issue
debt securities, in one or more series, as either senior or subordinated debt or as senior or subordinated convertible debt. While
the terms we have summarized below will generally apply to any future debt securities that may be offered under this prospectus,
we will describe the particular terms of any debt securities that may be offered in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement.
The terms of any debt securities offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms we describe below.
We
may issue secured or unsecured debt securities offered under this prospectus, which may be senior, subordinated or junior subordinated,
and/or convertible and which may be issued in one or more series. We will issue any new senior debt securities under a senior
indenture that we will enter into with a trustee named in such senior indenture. We will issue any subordinated debt securities
under a subordinated indenture that we will enter into with a trustee named in such subordinated indenture. We will have filed
forms of these documents as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part. The terms of the debt
securities will include those set forth in the applicable indenture, any related supplemental indenture and any related securities
documents that are made a part of the indenture by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. You should read the summary below, the applicable
prospectus supplement and the provisions of the applicable indenture, any supplemental indenture and any related security documents,
if any, in their entirety before investing in our debt securities. We use the term “indentures” to refer to both the
senior indentures and the subordinated indentures.
The
indentures will be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). We use
the term “trustee” to refer to either a trustee under the senior indenture or a trustee under the subordinated indenture,
as applicable.
The
following summaries of material provisions of any senior debt securities, any subordinated debt securities and the related indentures
are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the indentures and any supplemental indenture
or related document applicable to a particular series of debt securities. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements
related to the debt securities that are offered under this prospectus, as well as the complete indentures, that contains the terms
of the debt securities. See the information under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” for information
on how to obtain a copy of the appropriate indenture. Except as we may otherwise indicate, the terms of any senior indenture and
any subordinated indenture will be identical.
In
addition, the material specific financial, legal and other terms as well as any material U.S. federal income tax consequences
particular to securities of each series will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to the securities of that series.
The prospectus supplement may or may not modify the general terms found in this prospectus and will be filed with the SEC. For

under applicable laws or regulations or advisable in connection with the marketing of the debt securities.
|
In
addition to the debt securities that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus, we may issue other debt securities in public
or private offerings from time to time. These other debt securities may be issued under other indentures or documentation that
are not described in this prospectus, and those debt securities may contain provisions materially different from the provisions
applicable to one or more issues of debt securities offered pursuant to this prospectus.
Original
Issue Discount
One
or more series of debt securities offered under this prospectus may be sold at a substantial discount below their stated principal
amount, bearing no interest or interest at a rate that at the time of issuance is below market rates. The federal income tax consequences
and special considerations applicable to any series of debt securities generally will be described in the applicable prospectus
supplement.
Senior
Debt Securities
Payment
of the principal or premium, if any, and interest on senior debt securities will rank on a parity with all of our other indebtedness
that is not subordinated.
Subordination
of Subordinated Debt Securities
The
subordinated debt securities will be subordinate and junior in priority of payment to certain of our other indebtedness to the
extent described in a prospectus supplement. The indentures in the forms initially filed as exhibits to the registration statement
of which this prospectus is a part do not limit the amount of indebtedness which we may incur, including senior indebtedness or
subordinated indebtedness, and do not limit us from issuing any other debt, including secured debt or unsecured debt.
Conversion
or Exchange Rights
We
will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms on which a series of debt securities may be convertible into
or exchangeable for our common stock, our preferred stock or other securities, including the conversion or exchange rate, as applicable,
or how it will be calculated, and the applicable conversion or exchange period. We will include provisions as to whether conversion
or exchange is mandatory, at the option of the holder or at our option. We may include provisions pursuant to which the number
of securities that the holders of the series of debt securities receive upon conversion or exchange would, under the circumstance
described in those provisions, be subject to adjustment, or pursuant to which those holders would, under those circumstances,
receive other property upon conversion or exchange, for example in the event of our merger or consolidation with another entity.
Consolidation,
Merger or Sale
The
indentures in the forms initially filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part do not contain
any covenant that restricts our ability to merge or consolidate, or sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of our assets. However, any successor of ours or acquirer of such assets must assume all of our obligations under the indentures
and the debt securities.
If
the debt securities are convertible for our other securities, the person with whom we consolidate or merge or to whom we sell
all of our property must make provisions for the conversion of the debt securities into securities which the holders of the debt
securities would have received if they had converted the debt securities before the consolidation, merger or sale.
Events
of Default under the Indentures
Except
as otherwise set forth in an applicable prospectus supplement, the following are events of default under the indentures with respect
to any series of debt securities that we may issue:
|
●
|
if
we fail to pay interest when due and payable and our failure continues for 30 days and the time for payment has not been extended
or deferred;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
if
we fail to pay the principal, or premium, if any, when due and payable and the time for payment has not been extended or delayed;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
if
we fail to observe or perform any other covenant contained in the debt securities or the indentures, other than a covenant
solely for the benefit of another series of debt securities, and our failure continues for 90 days after we receive notice
from the trustee or holders of a to-be-determined percentage in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities
of the applicable series; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
if
specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occur.
|
If
an event of default with respect to debt securities of any series occurs and is continuing, other than an event of default specified
in the last bullet point above under “— Events of Default Under the Indentures,” the trustee or the holders
of a to-be-determined percentage in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series, by notice to
us in writing, and to the trustee if notice is given by such holders, may declare the unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and
accrued interest, if any, due and payable immediately. If an event of default specified in the last bullet point above “—
Events of Default Under the Indentures” occurs with respect to us, the principal amount of and accrued interest, if any,
of each series of debt securities then outstanding shall be due and payable without any notice or other action on the part of
the trustee or any holder.
The
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of an affected series may waive any default
or event of default with respect to the series and its consequences (other than bankruptcy defaults), except there may be no waiver
of defaults or events of default regarding payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, unless we have cured the default
or event of default in accordance with the applicable indenture.
Subject
to the terms of the indentures, if an event of default under an indenture shall occur and be continuing, the trustee will be under
no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under such indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of
the applicable series of debt securities, unless such holders have offered the trustee indemnity satisfactory to it. The holders
of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the trustee, with respect to the debt securities of that series, provided that:
|
●
|
the
direction so given by the holder is not in conflict with any law or the applicable indenture; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
subject
to its duties under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, the trustee need not take any action that might involve it in personal
liability or might be unduly prejudicial to the holders not involved in the proceeding.
|
A
holder of the debt securities of any series will only have the right to institute a proceeding under the indentures or to appoint
a receiver or trustee, or to seek other remedies if:
|
●
|
the
holder has given written notice to the trustee of a continuing event of default with respect to that series;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
holders of a to-be-determined percentage in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series have
made written request to the trustee, and such holders have offered indemnity satisfactory to the trustee, to institute the
proceeding as trustee; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
trustee does not institute the proceeding, and does not receive from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding debt securities of that series other conflicting directions, within 90 days after the notice, request and
offer.
|
These
limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a holder of debt securities if we default in the payment of the principal, premium,
if any, or interest on, the debt securities.
We
will periodically file statements with the trustee regarding our compliance with the covenants in the indentures.
Modification
of Indenture; Waiver
We
and the trustee may modify an indenture or enter into or modify any supplemental indenture without the consent of any holders
of the debt securities with respect to specific matters, including:
|
●
|
to
fix any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the indenture;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
comply with the provisions described above under “—Consolidation, Merger or Sale;”
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
comply with any requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the qualification of any indenture
under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor trustee;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
provide for uncertificated debt securities and to make any appropriate changes for such purpose;
|
|
●
|
to
add to, delete from, or revise the conditions, limitations and restrictions on the authorized amount, terms or purposes of
issuance, authorization and delivery of debt securities of any unissued series;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
add to our covenants such new covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions for the protection of the holders, to
make the occurrence, or the occurrence and the continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions,
conditions or provisions an event of default, or to surrender
any
of our rights or powers under the indenture; or
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
to
change anything that does not materially adversely affect the legal rights of any holder of debt securities of any series.
|
In
addition, under the indentures, the rights of holders of a series of debt securities may be changed by us and the trustee with
the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of
each series that is affected. However, we and the trustee may only make the following changes with the consent of each holder
of any outstanding debt securities affected:
|
●
|
extending
the fixed maturity of the series of debt securities;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
reducing
the principal amount, reducing the rate of or extending the time of payment of interest, or reducing any premium payable upon
the redemption of any debt securities; or
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
reducing
the percentage of debt securities, the holders of which are required to consent to any supplemental indenture.
|
Discharge
Each
indenture provides that, subject to the terms of the indenture and any limitation otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement
applicable to a particular series of debt securities, we can elect to be discharged from our obligations with respect to one or
more series of debt securities, except for specified obligations, including obligations to:
|
●
|
register
the transfer or exchange of debt securities of the series;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
replace
stolen, lost or mutilated debt securities of the series;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
maintain
paying agents and agencies for payment, registration of transfer and exchange and service of notices and demands;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
recover
excess money held by the trustee;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
compensate
and indemnify the trustee; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
appoint
any successor trustee.
|
In
order to exercise our rights to be discharged, we must deposit with the trustee money or government obligations sufficient to
pay all the principal of, any premium and interest on, the debt securities of the series on the date payments are due.
“Street
Name” and Other Indirect Holders
Investors
who hold securities in accounts at banks or brokers generally will not be recognized by us as legal holders of debt securities.
This manner of holding securities is called holding in “street name.” Instead, we would recognize only the bank or
broker, or the financial institution that the bank or broker uses to hold its securities. These intermediary banks, brokers and
other financial institutions pass along principal, interest and other payments on the debt securities, either because they agree
to do so in their customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. If you hold debt securities in “street
name,” you should check with your own institution to find out, among other things:
|
●
|
how
it handles payments and notices;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
whether
it imposes fees or charges;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
how
it would handle voting if applicable;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
whether
and how you can instruct it to send you debt securities registered in your own name so you can be a direct holder as described
below; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
if
applicable, how it would pursue rights under your debt securities if there were a default or other event triggering the need
for holders to act to protect their interests.
|
Our
obligations, as well as the obligations of the trustee under the indentures and those of any third parties employed by us or the
trustee under either of the indentures, run only to persons who are registered as holders of debt securities issued under the
applicable indenture. As noted above, we do not have obligations to you if you hold in “street name” or other indirect
means, either because you choose to hold debt securities in that manner or because the debt securities are issued in the form
of global securities as described below. For example, once we make payment to the registered holder, we have no further responsibility
for the payment even if that holder is legally required to pass the payment along to you as a “street name” customer
but does not do so.
Form,
Exchange and Transfer
We
may issue debt securities of each series only in fully registered form without coupons and, unless we otherwise specify in the
applicable prospectus supplement, in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. The indentures will provide that
we may issue debt securities of a series in temporary or permanent global form and as book-entry securities that will be deposited
with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company or another depositary named by us and identified in a prospectus supplement
with respect to that series (the “Depository”). See “Book-Entry” below for a further description of the
terms relating to any book-entry securities.
At
the option of the holder, subject to the terms of the indentures and the limitations applicable to global securities described
below or in the applicable prospectus supplement, the holder of the debt securities of any series can exchange the debt securities
for other debt securities of the same series, in any authorized denomination and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.
Subject
to the terms of the indentures and the limitations applicable to global securities set forth below in the applicable prospectus
supplement, holders of the debt securities may present the debt securities for exchange or for registration of transfer, duly
endorsed or with the form of transfer endorsed thereon duly executed if so required by us or the security registrar, at the office
of the security registrar or at the office of any transfer agent designated by us for this purpose. Unless otherwise provided
in the debt securities that the holder presents for transfer or exchange, we will make no service charge for any registration
of transfer or exchange, but we may require payment of any taxes or other governmental charges.
We
will name in the applicable prospectus supplement the security registrar, and any transfer agent in addition to the security registrar,
that we initially designate for any debt securities. We may at any time designate additional transfer agents or rescind the designation
of any transfer agent or approve a change in the office through which any transfer agent acts, except that we will be required
to maintain a transfer agent in each place of payment for the debt securities of each series.
If
we elect to redeem the debt securities of any series, we will not be required to:
|
●
|
issue,
register the transfer of, or exchange any debt securities of any series being redeemed in part during a period beginning at
the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of any debt securities that may be selected
for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing; or
|
|
●
|
register
the transfer of or exchange any debt securities so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion
of any debt securities we are redeeming in part.
|
Book-Entry
Securities
The
following description of book-entry securities will apply to any series of debt securities issued in whole or in part in the form
of one or more global securities, except as otherwise described in a related prospectus supplement.
Book-entry
securities of like tenor and having the same date will be represented by one or more global securities deposited with and registered
in the name of a depositary that is a clearing agent registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the
Exchange Act. Beneficial interests in book-entry securities will be limited to institutions that have accounts with the depositary,
or “participants,” or persons that may hold interests through participants.
Ownership
of beneficial interests by participants will only be evidenced by, and the transfer of that ownership interest will only be effected
through, records maintained by the depositary. Ownership of beneficial interests by persons that hold through participants will
only be evidenced by, and the transfer of that ownership interest within such participant will only be effected through, records
maintained by the participants. The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery
of such securities in definitive form. Such laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a global security.
Payment
of principal of and any premium and interest on book-entry securities represented by a global security registered in the name
of or held by a depositary will be made to the depositary, as the registered owner of the global security. Neither we, the trustee
nor any agent of ours or the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the depositary’s records
or any participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a global security
or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of the depositary’s records or any participant’s records relating
to the beneficial ownership interests. Payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global security held through
such participants will be governed by the depositary’s procedures, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts
of customers registered in “street name,” and will be the sole responsibility of such participants.
A
global security representing a book-entry security is exchangeable for definitive debt securities in registered form, of like
tenor and of an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of, or is transferable in whole or in part to, a person
other than the depositary for that global security, only if (i) the depositary notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as depositary for that global security or the depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (ii)
there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default with respect to the debt securities of that series or (iii) other
circumstances exist that have been specified in the terms of the debt securities of that series. Any global security that is exchangeable
pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be registered in the name or names of such person or persons as the depositary shall
instruct the trustee. It is expected that such instructions may be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants
with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in such global security.
Except
as provided above, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of debt
securities in definitive form and will not be considered the holders thereof for any purpose under the indentures, and no global
security shall be exchangeable, except for a security registered in the name of the depositary. This means each person owning
a beneficial interest in such global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary and, if such person is not a participant,
on the procedures of the participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the
indentures. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or an owner of a beneficial
interest in such global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the indentures,
the depositary would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take such action, and such
participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participant to give or take such action or would otherwise
act upon the instructions of beneficial owners owning through them.
Information
Concerning the Trustee
The
trustee, other than during the occurrence and continuance of an event of default under an indenture, undertakes to perform only
those duties as are specifically set forth in the applicable indenture and is under no obligation to exercise any of the powers
given it by the indentures at the request of any holder of debt securities unless it is offered reasonable security and indemnity
against the costs, expenses and liabilities that it might incur. However, upon an event of default under an indenture, the trustee
must use the same degree of care as a prudent person would exercise or use in the conduct of his or her own affairs.
Payment
and Paying Agents
Unless
we otherwise indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will make payment of the interest on any debt securities on
any interest payment date to the person in whose name the debt securities, or one or more predecessor securities, are registered
at the close of business on the regular record date for the interest.
We
will pay principal of and any premium and interest on the debt securities of a particular series at the office of the paying agents
designated by us, except that, unless we otherwise indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may make interest payments
by check which we will mail to the holder or by wire transfer to certain holders. Unless we otherwise indicate in a prospectus
supplement, we will designate an office or agency of the trustee in the City of New York as our paying agent for payments with
respect to debt securities of each series. We will name in the applicable prospectus supplement any other paying agents that we
initially designate for the debt securities of a particular series. We will maintain a paying agent in each place of payment for
the debt securities of a particular series.
All
money we pay to a paying agent or the trustee for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt securities
which remains unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable will be repaid
to us, and the holder of the debt security thereafter may look only to us for payment thereof.
Governing
Law
Except
as otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the indentures and the debt securities will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 is applicable.
DESCRIPTION
OF RIGHTS
General
We
may issue rights to our stockholders to purchase shares of our common stock described in this prospectus. We may offer rights
separately or together with one or more additional rights, common stock, warrants or any combination of those securities in the
form of units, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Each series of rights will be issued under a separate rights
agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as rights agent. The rights agent for any rights we offer
will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The rights agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the
certificates relating to the rights of the series of certificates and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency
or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights. The following description sets forth certain
general terms and provisions of the rights to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the rights to
which any prospectus supplement may relate and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions may apply to the rights so
offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. To the extent that any particular terms of the rights, rights
agreement or rights certificates described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms
described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement. We encourage you to read the applicable
rights agreement and rights certificate for additional information before you decide whether to purchase any of our rights.
The
prospectus supplement relating to any rights that we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering, including, among
other matters:

less than all of the rights issued in any rights offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to
persons other than stockholders, to or through agents, underwriters or dealers or through a combination of such methods, including
pursuant to standby arrangements, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. In connection with any rights offering,
we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which
such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed for after such rights offering.
DESCRIPTION
OF UNITS
We
may issue units composed of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus in any combination. Each unit will
be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit
will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may
provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before
a specified date.
The
applicable prospectus supplement may describe:
|
●
|
the
designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances
those securities may be held or transferred separately;
|
|
|
|
|
●

the
title of the series of units;
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
●
|
any
other terms of the units and their constituent securities.
|
The
preceding description and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement does not purport to be complete and
is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the unit agreement and, if applicable, collateral arrangements
and depositary arrangements relating to such units.
