Overview

Rekor was founded in 2017 and first entered the roadway intelligence business in 2019, with the acquisition of a company pioneering the development of computer vision software for roadway data collection and analysis. The software analyzes images and provides contemporaneous data about vehicles moving on the roadway, such as direction, speed, color, make, model license plate and other characteristics. The software uses a form of generative artificial intelligence, or AI, that employs neural networks to filter and identify patterns within the images and is continuously updated through machine learning that expands its capabilities and allows it to adapt to changes in the vehicle pool and other elements of the roadway environment. Rekor has continued the development of this software and has also developed a proprietary supporting operating system, which we identify as Rekor One^TM. This system addresses privacy concerns and facilitates the analysis and distribution of relevant data to multiple users through edge processing and other techniques. Using Rekor One^TM, we can collect, aggregate and analyze roadway data in combination with data from other sources. This analysis provides insights that are distributed to a variety of customers through our own proprietary platforms, as well as through those provided by others. While our primary customers are located in North America, products and services we provide are currently used in over 90 countries around the world. Our primary customers include national, state and municipal public agencies, as well as large commercial users, who employ our products and services for traffic studies, transportation management, public safety, perimeter security and tolling, as well as parking system operations. Our ultimate vision is to become the premier provider of roadway intelligence and data-driven mobility insights in the world.

Our operations are conducted primarily by our wholly owned subsidiaries Rekor Recognition Systems, Inc., Waycare Technologies, Ltd. and Waycare Technology Inc., or Waycare, Southern Traffic Services, Inc., or STS, All Traffic Data, LLC, or ATD, and Rekor Labs, LLC, or Rekor Labs. We integrated Waycare into our operations as part of a collaborative process of developing Rekor Command^TM, a platform used by traffic management centers. In addition to award winning incident management tools, Waycare brought us a valuable network of established third party data sources such as weather forecasts, transit schedules, event information and other data that provide insights through predictive analytics to our traffic management customers.

The acquisition of STS in 2022 allowed us to join forces with one of the leading data suppliers to state level Departments of Transportation, or DOTs, in the United States. Throughout its history, STS has pioneered an increasingly popular “pay for data” model of conducting traffic studies for DOTs. Using our Rekor Discover^TM platform, STS has been able to dramatically improve the quality, scope, efficiency and reliability of the data it supplies to DOTs. As more fully described under “Traffic Data Collection”, STS currently has contracts with several states, with a strong footprint in the Southeastern United States.

On January 2, 2024, we acquired ATD, which collaborates closely with numerous traffic engineering firms, metropolitan planning organizations, municipalities, and state DOTs, in locations where Rekor previously lacked a sales presence. ATD is actively involved in data collection across a wide-ranging geographic area, encompassing states like California, Colorado, Arizona, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. This addition expands the coverage of our urban mobility operations across the country’s western region and further strengthens our position in the Southeast, providing ready access to experienced urban mobility personnel and operational facilities to support the expansion of our Internet of Things, or IoT, network.

On October 23, 2025, we announced the formation of our wholly owned subsidiary Rekor Labs, through which we intend to develop and commercialize a suite of products to identify and combat synthetically created and modified media, often referred to as deepfakes.

A New Operating System for Roadways

We believe there is a significant need for the innovative products and services we have developed. The current condition of national transportation infrastructure systems is a matter of concern, particularly in the United States. According to a 2025 infrastructure report from the American Society of Civil Engineers, or ASCE, U.S. infrastructure has been graded a C, indicating that there is significant and urgent need for improvement. The 2025 grade for roads was D+, with 39% of roads in poor or mediocre condition and an annual funding gap estimated at $684 billion. The report noted that deficiencies jeopardize public safety, contributing to an estimate of over 40,000 roadway deaths in 2023, but also impose significant economic costs, including an estimated average $1,400 per driver cost related to deteriorated and congested roads. Transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions – motorists’ emissions, particularly when trapped in traffic – account for a significant proportion of the country’s total emissions and are a leading contributor to declining sustainability, which has far-reaching environmental impacts. Addressing the road infrastructure issue is imperative for both economic and ecological reasons. On February 2, 2023, the U.S. Department of Transportation declared a national crisis and state of emergency for roadway safety and launched an urgent roadway safety call-to-action demanding stakeholders to commit to specific actions to reverse the spike in serious injuries and deaths on our roadways.

Among the top policy objectives that the ASCE’s 2025 report called for was the continuing need to support the development of innovative technologies and ensure that reliable data is collected and released frequently regarding the condition, capacity, operations, maintenance, safety, and resilience of infrastructure systems. Recognizing the urgent need for modernization, the federal government has recently taken significant steps to invest in the transform the nation’s infrastructure. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and Inflation Reduction Act provided historic levels funding for transportation infrastructure system modernization. Additionally, the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science Act provided support for AI-driven innovation and semiconductor production, critical components for modernizing infrastructure through technology. These legislative efforts are consistent with the foundation set by President Trump’s 2019 “American AI Initiative” and his most recent 2025 Executive Order 14179, which prioritized public-private collaboration and the adoption of AI technologies across sectors like transportation. These federal actions have provided a strategy and funding mechanisms for states to tackle the long-standing challenges of updating outdated, legacy systems for roadway intelligence gathering.

We expect the deployment of sophisticated roadway intelligence systems to be a significant part of both planning for and implementing the infrastructure improvements necessary to meet these challenges. Our commitment to delivering mission-critical solutions for roadway intelligence is driven by our vision of creating smarter, safer and more sustainable streets for all communities. To achieve this vision, we strive to collect, connect and organize the world’s mobility data, harnessing its full potential to provide the most essential, real-time and predictive actionable mobility insights. We are working to make mobility data more accessible and useful for all responsible users, empowering our customers to make informed decisions and drive meaningful progress towards a better future. The ultimate objective is to adopt an augmented approach to existing physical infrastructure that blends the strengths of physical, digital and operational infrastructure with mobility data, including mobile phones, connected vehicles and roadway sensors. The ultimate goal is to enable and coordinate private and public collaboration through a digital-enabled mobility internet and operating system for the roadways that will advance smarter, safer and greener roadways for all.

Roadway Intelligence

We are a leader in roadway intelligence, committed to supporting the process of revolutionizing transportation systems by collecting, connecting, and organizing the world’s mobility data. Improving and making effective use of roadway intelligence requires the ability to harness vast amounts and varieties of data from roadways, vehicles, transportation systems, and hundreds of external elements like weather, special events, and work zones, and do the analysis and distribution that transforms them into actionable insights that operators and planners can use productively. These unique insights permit our customers to enhance public safety, visualize and optimize traffic flows more quickly, and improve other operational efficiencies. Through our Rekor One^® roadway intelligence engine, we aggregate these datasets from diverse sources and securely deliver these insights to government agencies and private-sector clients, driving smarter, more effective decision-making across transportation management, urban mobility, and public safety ecosystems, as well as multiple commercial market segments.

Inspired by the Open System Interconnection (“OSI”) model, we work to integrate fragmented transportation systems into a cohesive, unified network. Collaborating with government agencies, infrastructure operators, transit providers, and technology partners, we can consolidate hardware, software, and data into a connected platform that delivers smarter, safer, and more efficient roadways.

Our mission extends beyond connectivity – we are building dynamic, AI-enabled networks to modernize traffic management, public safety, and emergency services. By supporting the establishment of a digital overlay on existing physical infrastructure, we are helping to create a new generation digital operating system for roadways, delivering real-time intelligence that powers economic growth, operational excellence, and improved quality of life for communities.

Traffic Data Collection

We have been focused on the use of AI technology for roadway data collection since 2018. With the acquisition of STS in 2022, we joined forces with a pioneer in traffic data collection with over 30 years of experience and have focused on improving the accuracy, efficiency, and safety of their data collection activities. We further bolstered our offering with the acquisition of ATD in January 2024. ATD is a recognized leader in the industry, working closely with DOTs and engineering firms across multiple states. By having STS and ATD under Rekor, we have combined decades of traffic engineering and data collection expertise with our AI and machine learning capabilities.

S-4

Traffic data collection plays a critical role to all transportation decision making. Traffic data is collected by state DOTs, metropolitan planning organizations, cities, engineering firms and others to support traffic monitoring programs that provide critical information for roadway planning, congestion analysis, traffic forecasting, modeling, maintenance, design, operations safety analysis, environmental analysis, project evaluation and others.

Traffic data collection is mandated by the FHWA. State agencies collect some traffic data through programs that continuously count traffic at fixed locations. Other programs collect sample traffic counts during a specified period at various locations. Continuous count stations collect data 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and the agencies report the data to the FHWA on a monthly basis. Sample traffic counts (referred to as “portable” counts) are collected at various locations on a rotating basis to provide more geographic diversity. These counts can be for 24, 48 or 72 hours. The types of data collected for both temporary and continuous data collection include vehicle volumes, 13-bin vehicle classification and speed, among others.

Historically, data for temporary traffic counting has been conducted using rubber tubes across the road while continuous counting stations have been installed using inductive loops and piezos. This technology has not changed in decades and requires workers to enter roadways, which causes safety concerns. In the case of the inductive loops and piezos used for continuous count stations, it also requires digging up the roadway which can be very expensive and time consuming and, creates additional congestion.

We believe that we are currently at the forefront of innovation when it comes to traffic data collection. Our innovative systems support both continuous and sampling data collection programs. The systems can collect and provide agencies with real-time traffic volumes, 13-bin vehicle classification and speed data using off road sensors for both continuous and temporary traffic data collection. In addition to collecting the traffic data required by the FHWA, our products can simultaneously fulfill additional missions such as origin and destination studies, license plate recognition for public safety, identification of electric vehicles for sustainability purposes, and many other uses.

On October 8, 2025 we announced that the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) are actively using Rekor Discover.

Business Strategy

Our products and services have demonstrated the ability to provide significant improvements in public safety and transportation management and we anticipate that this will drive our growth. The transportation infrastructure market is in the process of transformative change due to a convergence of political, economic, societal, and technological forces. These include rising safety concerns, rapid urbanization and a heightened awareness of the impact human mobility has on the planet. Both governments and businesses are seeking out new technologies and better ways to manage public safety, urban mobility and transportation management challenges. As a result, there has been a significant increase in government funding available to digitize transportation infrastructure in the United States and other countries with a focus on deploying proven near-term solutions that are scalable, efficient, equitable and sustainable. We believe the technologies that we have developed and are continuing to develop have positioned us to take advantage of these market forces.

S-5

Our use of AI to extract information about the movements of vehicles and other objects on the roadway has proven to be a core strength, allowing us to capture comprehensive and detailed roadway data with superior accuracy and speed. The modular design of our Rekor One^® intelligence platform, in tandem with our proprietary edge processing and filtering technologies, have positioned us to emerge as a leader in facilitating the emerging industry of interactive roadway intelligence. Our mission is to gather the most accurate and detailed data that can be obtained from the roadway in real time and facilitate the aggregation and analysis of that data with other sources, so that insights drawn from that aggregation and analysis can be delivered securely and efficiently to the persons who can make the best use of it. Automotive OEMs and government agencies in the transportation industry are starting to focus on how to leverage connected vehicle data with AI to improve safety. We are building partnerships and enhancing our solutions with data to facilitate the delivery of real-time information to citizens. With Rekor Command^™ for transportation management, we are at the forefront of developing predictive analytics that deliver insights based on the analysis of aggregated data from a variety of sources. These sources include real time information drawn from roadway sensors and connected vehicles, off roadway sources such as weather and event data, as well as daily, seasonal and historical trend data.

The enhanced information we provide on roadway conditions is valuable to a wide range of stakeholders. During the past three years, we have initiated the delivery of products and services to a wide range of governmental and business customers. These customers are diverse, ranging from large government entities to small entrepreneurs, and the uses they make of our technology are varied. We have used these customer relationships as an opportunity to assess the full potential of the technologies we have been developing and to learn by doing as well as imagining. When the capital markets were strong, we pursued this strategy aggressively and independently.

In the transportation management and public safety areas, where we are furthest along with the delivery of revenue producing products and services, we expect to continue to employ a “land and expand” growth strategy. This focuses on scaling our resources to supporting growth within these industry segments through expansion of the products and services delivered to existing customers, as well as recruitment of new customers who become familiar with our products and services. By expanding our services and solutions to existing customers while also facilitating cooperation between our existing and new customers we expect to continually expand our information network.

As we develop our sales and marketing capabilities, we are concentrating primarily on subscription-based solutions, with hardware sales used primarily to drive these subscriptions. We continue to explore opportunities for acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses, products, services, or technologies, including those that might benefit most from the use of our technology. These strategic partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions will be attractive to us when they allow us to accelerate our growth or expand our capability to continue leading the roadway intelligence industry.

S-8

RISK FACTORS

If any of the matters included in the following risks were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to this Offering

If you purchase units in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering.

Investors of units offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of their investment. Based on the public offering price of $1.75 per unit and our net tangible book value (deficit) as of September 30, 2025, if you purchase units in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $1.73 per share with respect to the net tangible book value of the common stock. See “Dilution” in this prospectus supplement for a more detailed discussion of the dilution that investors will incur in this offering.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds of this offering and, despite our efforts, we may use the net proceeds in a manner that does not increase the value of your investment.

We currently intend to use the proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes and have not determined the specific allocation of the net proceeds among these potential uses. Our management will have broad discretion over the use and investment of the net proceeds of this offering, and, accordingly, investors in this offering will need to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of proceeds, with only limited information concerning our specific intentions. These proceeds could be applied in ways that do not improve our operating results or increase the value of your investment. Please see the section entitled “Use of Proceeds” on page S-13 of this prospectus supplement for further information.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and this may adversely affect our stockholders.

The price at which our common stock trades may be volatile. The stock market has recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of all securities, including securities of companies like us. The market price of our common stock may be influenced by many factors, including:

•

our operating and financial performance;

•

variances in our quarterly financial results compared to expectations;

•

future sales of common stock or debt or the perception that sales could occur;

•

investor perception of our business and our prospects;

•

developments relating to the occurrence of risks impacting our company, including any of the risk factors set forth herein; or

•

general economic and stock market conditions.

S-9

In addition, the stock market in general has experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies in our industry. These broad market and industry factors may materially reduce the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock. We cannot assure investors that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing our shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors.

A substantial number of shares may be sold in the market following this offering, which may depress the market price for our common stock.

As of December 12, 2025, we have outstanding a total of 127,886,149 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2025, we had 6,802,983 potentially dilutive securities: 4,331,100 related to outstanding warrants, 471,533 related to outstanding options and 2,000,350 related to unvested RSUs.

Based on shares outstanding as of December 10, 2025, 14,128,288 shares of common stock (which includes options and RSUs already vested or which will vest within 60 days from December 10, 2025), or approximately 11%, are held by our officers, directors and their affiliated entities, and will be subject to volume limitations under Rule 144 under the Securities Act and various vesting agreements.

We cannot predict what effect, if any, sales of our shares in the public market or the availability of shares for sale will have on the market price of our common stock. However, future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issued on exercise of outstanding options, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future; accordingly, capital appreciation, if any, will be your sole source of gain and you may never receive a return on your investment.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently anticipate that for the foreseeable future we will retain all of our future earnings for the development, operation and growth of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any future determination to pay dividends on our common stock in will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

Holders of the warrants will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise their warrants and acquire our common stock.

Until holders of the warrants exercise their warrants, and acquire shares of our common stock, such holders will have no rights with respect to the shares of our common stock underlying such warrants.

There is no established public trading market for the units being offered in this offering or the warrants included in the units and we do not expect markets to develop for these securities.

There is no established trading market for the units being offered in this offering or the warrants included in the units, and we do not expect markets to develop for these securities. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the units or warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the units and warrants will be limited.

Significant holders or beneficial owners of our common stock may not be permitted to exercise the warrants that they hold.

A holder of the warrants will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any warrant, to the extent that upon giving effect to such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates and certain other attribution parties, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your warrants for shares of our common stock at a time when it would be financially beneficial for you to do so. In such a circumstance, you could seek to sell your warrants to realize value, but you may be unable to do so in the absence of an established trading market.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this prospectus supplement and in other documents we file from time to time with the SEC that disclose risks and uncertainties that may affect our business. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Specific factors that might cause actual results to differ from our expectations include, but are not limited to:

•

significant risks, uncertainties and other considerations discussed in this prospectus supplement;

operating risks, including supply chain, equipment or system failures, cyber and other malicious attacks and other events that could affect the amounts and timing of revenues and expenses;

•

reputational risks affecting customer confidence or willingness to do business with us;

•

financial market conditions, including the continuation of significant national and global uncertainties that may affect these conditions, and the results of financing efforts;

•

our ability to successfully identify, integrate and complete acquisitions and dispositions;

•

our continued ability to successfully access the public markets for debt or equity capital;

•

political, legal, regulatory, governmental, administrative and economic conditions and developments in the United States and other countries in which we operate and, in particular, the impact of recent and future federal, state and local regulatory proceedings and changes, including legislative and regulatory initiatives associated with our products;

•

a U.S. government shutdown could adversely affect our ability to execute contracts, receive payments, and secure new awards;

•

tariffs and trade policy changes could adversely affect our supply chain and financial performance;

•

current and future litigation;

•

competition from other companies with an established position in the markets we have recently entered or are seeking to enter or from other companies who are seeking to enter markets we already serve;

S-11

•

our failure to successfully develop products using our technology that are accepted by the markets we serve or intend to serve or the development of new technologies that change the nature of our business or provide our customers with products or services superior to or less expensive than ours;

•

the inability of our strategic plans and goals to expand our geographic markets, customer base and product and service offerings;

•

risks associated with cyberattacks on international, national, local and company information infrastructure by rogue businesses or criminal elements or by agents of governments engaged in asymmetric disruptions for competitive, economic, or military reasons; and

•

tariffs and trade policy changes could adversely affect our supply chain and financial performance.

Investors are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results or outcomes may vary materially from those described herein. Other than as required by U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements even though our situation may change in the future. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and any updates contained in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, and other filings made with the SEC.

S-12

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the proceeds from this offering will be approximately $14.0 million, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, operating expenses and capital expenditures. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds for acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses, products, services or technologies, although we do not currently have any plans or commitments for any specific acquisitions or investments. The expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our present plans and business conditions. We will have broad discretion over how to use the net proceeds to us from this offering.

The amount of what, and timing of when, we actually spend for these purposes may vary significantly and will depend on a number of factors, including our future revenue and expenses and the other factors described in the section of this prospectus captioned “Risk Factors” and under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the timing and amount of actual expenditures with respect to our market expansion activities will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from this offering. As a result, our management will have broad discretion regarding the timing and application of the net proceeds from this offering. Pending these uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities.

S-13

DILUTION

If you invest in our units, you will experience dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per unit and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

Our net tangible book value (deficit) as of September 30, 2025, was approximately $(10,955,000), or $(0.09) per share of our common stock, based upon the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of that date. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per unit paid by purchasers in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

After giving effect to the sale by us of 8,571,428 units in this offering (which assumes no exercise of the warrants sold in this offering) based on the offering price of $1.75 per unit and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value (deficit) as of September 30, 2025, would have been approximately $(10,955,000), or $(0.09) per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.11 per share to existing stockholders and immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $1.73 per share to new investors purchasing our units in this offering at the public offering price. The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis:


Public offering price per unit				$	1.75
Net tangible book value (deficit) per share as of September 30, 2025	$	(0.09	)
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors in offering	$	0.11
As adjusted net tangible book value per share after giving effect to the Offering				$	0.02
Dilution per share to investors				$	1.73

The above table is based on 126,689,228 shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the information in this prospectus supplement, is as of September 30, 2025, assumes no exercise of the warrants sold in this offering, and excludes:

•

4,331,100 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding as of September 30, 2025, with a weighted average exercise price of $2.80;

•

471,533 shares of our common stock underlying options outstanding as of September 30, 2025, with a weighted average exercise price of $1.14, all of which are exercisable; and

•

2,000,350 shares of our common stock issuable upon vesting of RSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

To the extent that options or warrants are exercised, new options are issued under our 2017 Equity Award Plan, or we issue additional shares of common stock in the future, there may be further dilution to investors participating in this offering. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital because of market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. If we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

S-14

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our cash and capitalization as of September 30, 2025:

•

on an actual basis;

•

on an as adjusted basis assuming the issuance and sale of 8,571,428 units at a purchase price of $1.75 per unit, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us (and assuming no exercise of the warrants issued in this offering).

You should read this table in conjunction with “Use of Proceeds” as well as our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

The table above assumes no exercise of the warrants sold in this offering and excludes:

•

4,331,100 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding as of September 30, 2025, with a weighted average exercise price of $2.80;

•

471,533 shares of our common stock underlying options outstanding as of September 30, 2025, with a weighted average exercise price of $1.14, all of which are exercisable; and

•

2,000,350 shares of our common stock issuable upon vesting of RSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

S-15

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Instead, we anticipate that all of our earnings for the foreseeable future will be used for the development, operation and growth of our business. Any future determination to declare cash dividends on our common stock would be subject to the discretion of our board of directors and would depend on various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, and capital requirements, restrictions that may be imposed by applicable law, and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors.

S-16

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Warrants

The following is a brief summary of certain terms and conditions of the warrants being offered by this prospectus supplement. The following description is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the warrants, the form of which will be filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Form

The warrants will be issued as individual warrant agreements to the investors.

Term

The warrants will expire seven years from the date of original issuance.

Exercisability

The warrants are exercisable at any time on or after their original issuance and on or before the expiration date. The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied, unless the cashless exercise procedure is utilized, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise. If only a portion of a warrant is exercised, we will issue a new warrant for the unexercised portion. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will, at our election, either pay the holder a cash adjustment equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price or round up to the next whole share.

Exercise Limitations

We may not effect the exercise of any warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any warrant, to the extent that upon giving effect to such exercise, the holder (together with its affiliates and certain other attribution parties, as defined in the warrants) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to us.

Exercise Price

The exercise price per whole share of our common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is $2.40 per share of common stock. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our common stock.

S-17

Cashless Exercise

If, at the time a holder exercises its warrants, there is no effective registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the warrants under the Securities Act, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for such issuance, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the warrants. In the event the warrants are exercised via cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the warrant shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the warrants being exercised.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the expiration date, the warrants will be automatically exercised via cashless exercise, subject to the beneficial ownership limitations described above.

Transferability

Subject to applicable laws, the warrants may be transferred or assigned without our consent.

Delivery of Warrant Shares

We will cause the warrant shares purchased upon exercise to be transmitted to the holder by crediting the account of the holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system if we are then a participant in such system and either (i) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the warrant shares to or resale of the warrant shares by the holder or (ii) the warrants are being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate. We have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the warrant shares within one trading day. If we fail to deliver the warrant shares by the required delivery date, we will be required to pay the holder liquidated damages and, under certain circumstances, buy-in damages, as described in the warrants.

Amendment

The warrants may be amended only with the written consent of us and the holder.

Exchange Listing

There is no established trading market for the warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to list the warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized trading system.

S-18

Fundamental Transactions

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding common stock or more than 50% of the voting power of our common equity, the holders of the warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. We will cause any successor entity in a fundamental transaction to assume in writing all of our obligations under the warrants in accordance with the provisions thereof.

Rights as a Stockholder

Except as expressly set forth in the warrants with respect to certain adjustments and except by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of a warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the warrant.

S-19

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) with respect to their ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock and warrants issued pursuant to this offering. For purposes of this discussion, a non-U.S. holder means a beneficial owner of our common stock or warrants that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•

a non-resident alien individual;

•

a corporation or other organization taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is created or organized in or under laws other than the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

•

an estate the income of which is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis; or

•

a trust the income of which is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis and that (1) is not subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States or over which no U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions and (2) has not made an election to be treated as a U.S. person.

This discussion does not address the tax treatment of partnerships or other entities that are pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or persons that hold their common stock or warrants through partnerships or other pass-through entities. A partner in a partnership or other pass-through entity that will hold our common stock or warrants should consult his, her or its tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of our common stock or warrants through a partnership or other pass-through entity, as applicable.

This discussion is based on current provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code, existing and proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and current administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as in effect as of the date of this prospectus supplement and all of which are subject to change or to differing interpretation, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change or differing interpretation could alter the tax consequences to non-U.S. holders described in this prospectus supplement. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service, which we refer to as the IRS, will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences described herein. We have not sought any ruling from the IRS, with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in the following summary. We assume in this discussion that a non-U.S. holder holds shares of our common stock or warrants as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, which is generally property held for investment. This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular non-U.S. holder in light of that non-U.S. holder’s individual circumstances nor does it address any U.S. state, local or non-U.S. taxes or tax law, the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on net investment income, the rules regarding qualified small business stock within the meaning of Section 1202 of the Code, or any other aspect of any U.S. federal tax other than the income tax. This discussion also does not consider any specific facts or circumstances that may apply to a non-U.S. holder and does not address the special tax rules applicable to particular non-U.S. holders, such as:

•

insurance companies;

•

tax-exempt or governmental organizations;

•

financial institutions or mutual funds;

•

brokers or dealers in securities;

•

regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts;

•

holders that are dealers in securities or foreign currency;

S-20

•

pension plans;

•

“controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

•

“qualified foreign pension funds,” or entities wholly owned by a “qualified foreign pension fund”;

•

persons deemed to sell our common stock or warrants under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;

•

persons that hold our common stock or warrants as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, synthetic security or other integrated investment;

•

tax qualified retirement plans;

•

persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to our common stock or warrants being taken into account in an applicable financial statement;

•

persons that own (directly or indirectly, actually or constructively) 5% or more of our outstanding stock;

•

persons who have elected to mark securities to market;

•

persons that acquire our common stock or warrants as compensation for services; and

•

certain U.S. expatriates.

This discussion is for general information only and is not tax advice. Accordingly, all prospective non-U.S. holders of our common stock or warrants should consult their tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock or warrants.

Allocation of Purchase Price

No statutory, administrative or judicial authority directly addresses the treatment of a unit or instruments similar to them, for federal income tax purposes, and therefore, that treatment is not entirely clear. Under general U.S. federal income tax principles, the acquisition of a unit should be treated as the acquisition of one share of common stock and one warrant to acquire one share of our common stock. The purchase price for each investment unit must be allocated by you between these two components in proportion to their relative fair market values at the time you purchase the unit. Under U.S. federal income tax law, each investor must make his or her own determination of these values based on all the facts and circumstances. Therefore, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the determination of value for these purposes. This allocation of the purchase price for each unit will establish your initial tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the share of common stock and the warrant included in each unit.

Any disposition of a unit will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a disposition of the share of common stock and the warrant, as applicable, and the amount realized on the disposition must be allocated by you between the components according to their respective relative fair market values (as determined by you based on all the relevant facts and circumstances) at the time of disposition. The separation of the share of common stock and the warrant included in each unit should not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the allocation of the purchase price for a unit.

The foregoing treatment of the units, common stock and warrants, and your purchase price allocation, are not binding on the IRS or the courts. Because there are no authorities that directly address instruments that are similar to the units, no assurance can be given that the IRS or a court will agree with the characterization described above or the discussion below. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the characterization of the units described above is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Distributions

Distributions, if any, on our common stock will generally constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. If a distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess will be treated as a tax-free return of the non-U.S. holder’s investment, up to such holder’s tax basis in the common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as capital gain, subject to the tax treatment described below in “Gain on Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Stock or Warrants.” Any such distributions will also be subject to the discussions below under the sections titled “Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” and “Withholding and Information Reporting Requirements — FATCA.”

Subject to the discussion in the following two paragraphs in this section, dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder on our common stock generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate of the gross amount of the dividend or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and such holder’s country of residence. If we are unable to determine, at a time reasonably close to the date of payment of a distribution on our common stock, what portion, if any, of the distribution will constitute a dividend, then we may withhold U.S. federal income tax based on the assumption that the full amount of the distribution will be a dividend. If we or another withholding agent apply over-withholding or if a non-U.S. holder does not timely provide us with the required certification, a non-U.S. holder may be entitled to a refund of any excess tax withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim with the IRS.

S-21

Dividends that are treated as effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by a non-U.S. holder within the United States and, if an applicable income tax treaty so provides, that are attributable to a permanent establishment or a fixed base maintained by the non-U.S. holder within the United States, are generally exempt from the 30% withholding tax if the non-U.S. holder satisfies applicable certification and disclosure requirements. However, such U.S. effectively connected income, net of specified deductions and credits, is generally taxed at the same graduated U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to United States persons (as defined in the Code). Any U.S. effectively connected income received by a non-U.S. holder that is a corporation may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and such holder’s country of residence.

A non-U.S. holder of our common stock or warrants who claims the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and such holder’s country of residence generally will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable or successor form) to the applicable withholding agent and satisfy applicable certification and other requirements. Non-U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under a relevant income tax treaty. A non-U.S. holder that is eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty may obtain a refund or credit of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing a U.S. tax return with the IRS.

Certain adjustments to warrants

Under Section 305 of the Code, an adjustment to the number of shares of common stock that will be issued on the exercise of the warrants, or an adjustment to the exercise price of the warrants, may be treated as a constructive distribution to you of the warrants if, and to the extent that, such adjustment has the effect of increasing your proportionate interest in our “earnings and profits” or assets, depending on the circumstances of such adjustment (for example, if such adjustment is to compensate for a distribution of cash or other property to our stockholders). Any such adjustment that is treated as a constructive distribution would be treated as a dividend, subject to withholding, to the extent described above under “—Distributions.” You should consult your tax advisor regarding the proper tax treatment of any such adjustment.

Exercise of warrants and expiration of warrants

In general, you will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the exercise of warrants into shares of common stock. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise of warrants into our common stock is unclear. A non-U.S. holder should consult his, her, or its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of a cashless exercise of warrants. The expiration of a warrant will be treated as if you sold or exchanged the warrant and recognized a capital loss equal to your tax basis in the warrant. However, you will not be able to utilize a loss recognized upon expiration of a warrant against your U.S. federal income tax liability unless the loss is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base in the United States) or is treated as a U.S.-source loss and you are present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met.

Gain on sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock or warrants

Subject to the discussions below under “Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” and “Withholding and Information Reporting Requirements — FATCA,” a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to any U.S. federal income tax or withholding on any gain realized upon such holder’s sale or other taxable disposition of shares of our common stock or warrants unless:

•

the gain is effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business and, if an applicable income tax treaty so provides, is attributable to a permanent establishment or a fixed base maintained by such non-U.S. holder in the United States, in which case the non-U.S. holder generally will be taxed on a net income basis at the graduated U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to United States persons (as defined in the Code) and, if the non-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, the branch profits tax described above in “Distributions” also may apply;

•

the non-U.S. holder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met, in which case the non-U.S. holder will be subject to a 30% tax (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and such holder’s country of residence) on the net gain derived from the disposition, which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses of the non-U.S. holder, if any (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided that the non-U.S. holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses; or

•

we are, or have been, at any time during the five-year period preceding such sale or other taxable disposition (or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period, if shorter) a “U.S. real property holding corporation,” unless our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market and the non-U.S. holder holds no more than 5% of our outstanding common stock, directly or indirectly, actually or constructively, during the shorter of the 5-year period ending on the date of the disposition or the period that the non-U.S. holder held our common stock. Generally, a corporation is a U.S. real property holding corporation only if the fair market value of its “U.S. real property interests” (as defined in the Code) equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests plus its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. Although there can be no assurance, we do not believe that we are, or have been, a U.S. real property holding corporation, or that we are likely to become one in the future. No assurance can be provided that our common stock will be regularly traded on an established securities market for purposes of the rules described above.

Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of the foregoing rules to their ownership and disposition of our common stock or warrants.

S-22

Backup withholding and information reporting

We (or the applicable paying agent) must report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the gross amount of the distributions on our common stock or warrants paid to such holder and the tax withheld, if any, with respect to such distributions. Non-U.S. holders may have to comply with specific certification procedures to establish that the holder is not a “United States person” (as defined in the Code) in order to avoid backup withholding at the applicable rate (24% for amounts paid in 2025) with respect to dividends on our common stock or warrants. Dividends paid to non-U.S. holders subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax, as described above in “Distributions,” generally will be exempt from U.S. backup withholding if the non-U.S. holder establishes an exemption by properly certifying its non-U.S. status on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable or successor form). Information reporting and backup withholding will generally apply to the proceeds of a disposition of our common stock or warrants by a non-U.S. holder effected by or through the U.S. office of any broker, U.S. or foreign, unless the holder certifies its status as a non-U.S. holder and satisfies certain other requirements, or otherwise establishes an exemption. Generally, information reporting and backup withholding will not apply to a payment of disposition proceeds to a non-U.S. holder where the transaction is effected outside the United States through a non-U.S. office of a broker. However, for information reporting purposes, dispositions effected through a non-U.S. office of a broker with substantial U.S. ownership or operations generally will be treated in a manner similar to dispositions effected through a U.S. office of a broker.

Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the information reporting and backup withholding rules to them. Copies of information returns may be made available to the tax authorities of the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides or is incorporated under the provisions of a specific treaty or agreement. Any documentation provided to an applicable withholding agent may need to be updated in certain circumstances. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a non-U.S. holder can be refunded or credited against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that an appropriate claim is filed with the IRS in a timely manner.

Withholding and information reporting requirements — FATCA

Provisions of the Code commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA, generally impose a U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% on payments of dividends on our common stock or warrants paid to a foreign entity unless (i) if the foreign entity is a “foreign financial institution,” such foreign entity undertakes certain due diligence, reporting, withholding, and certification obligations, (ii) if the foreign entity is not a “foreign financial institution,” such foreign entity identifies certain of its U.S. investors, if any, or (iii) the foreign entity is otherwise exempt under FATCA. Such withholding may also apply to payments of gross proceeds from sales or other dispositions of our common stock or warrants, although proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations (on which taxpayers may rely pending finalization) provide that no withholding would apply to payments of gross proceeds. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, these proposed regulations have not been finalized. Under certain circumstances, a non-U.S. holder may be eligible for refunds or credits of this withholding tax. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify the requirements described in this paragraph. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in our common stock or warrants and the entities through which they hold our common stock or warrants, including, without limitation, the process and deadlines for meeting the applicable requirements to prevent the imposition of the 30% withholding tax under FATCA.

Prospective investors should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA with respect to an investment in our units. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally will be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden).

Additionally, non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any beneficial ownership reporting obligations that may apply under the Corporate Transparency Act or other applicable laws and regulations.

S-24

No Sales of Similar Securities

We have agreed with the underwriters, subject to customary exceptions not to (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the SEC a registration statement under the Act relating to, any shares of our common stock or any securities that are substantially similar to our common stock, including but not limited to any options or warrants to purchase shares of our common stock or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock or any such substantially similar securities, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock, or any such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of our common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the representative. These restrictions will apply through and including the date that is 90 days after the date of this prospectus supplement.

The restrictions described in the immediately preceding paragraphs do not apply to us in certain circumstances, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, including (i) the issuance and sale of shares of common stock in this offering, (ii) the issuance of options, restricted stock units, warrants or other equity awards to acquire shares of common stock granted pursuant to the equity-based compensation plans (the “Company Stock Plans”), as such plans may be amended, (iii) the issuance of shares of common stock upon the exercise or vesting of any such options, warrants or other equity awards to acquire shares of common stock, (iv) shares of common stock issued upon exercise of outstanding warrants, or (v) the filing of one or more Registration Statements on Form S-8 registering securities pursuant to the Company Stock Plans.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “REKR.”

Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids

Until the distribution of the shares is completed, SEC rules may limit underwriters and selling group members from bidding for and purchasing shares of our common stock. However, the representative may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of our common stock, such as bids or purchases to peg, fix or maintain that price.

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell shares of our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in this offering. “Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares described above. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising this option or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through this option. “Naked” short sales are sales in excess of this option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of shares of our common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the closing of this offering.

The underwriters may also impose penalty bids. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representative has repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

S-25

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The underwriters may conduct these transactions on the Nasdaq Capital Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representative will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Shares

In connection with this offering, certain of the underwriters or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail. In addition, one or more of the underwriters may facilitate Internet distribution for this offering to certain of their Internet subscription customers. Any such underwriter may allocate a limited number of shares for sale to its online brokerage customers. An electronic prospectus is available on the Internet websites maintained by any such underwriter. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on the websites of any such underwriter is not part of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Other Relationships

The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates may engage in from time to time in the future certain investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the issuer. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc.

ABOUT REKOR SYSTEMS, INC.

Overview

Our operations are conducted primarily by our wholly-owned subsidiaries Rekor Recognition Systems, Inc., Waycare Technologies, Ltd. and Waycare Technology Inc., or Waycare, Southern Traffic Services, Inc., or STS, and All Traffic Data, LLC, or ATD. We integrated Waycare into our operations as part of a collaborative process of developing Rekor Command^TM, a platform used by traffic management centers. In addition to award winning incident management tools, Waycare brought us a valuable network of established third party data sources such as weather forecasts, transit schedules, event information and other data that provide insights through predictive analytics to our traffic management customers.

The acquisition of STS in 2022 allowed us to join forces with one of the leading data suppliers to state level Departments of Transportation, or DOTs, in the United States. Throughout its history, STS has pioneered an increasingly popular “pay for data” model of conducting traffic studies for DOTs. Using our Rekor Discover^TM platform, STS has been able to dramatically improve the quality, scope, efficiency and reliability of the data it supplies to DOTs. As more fully described under “Traffic Data Collection”, STS currently has contracts with several states, with a strong footprint in the Southeastern United States. We are currently engaged in discussions, including conducting proof of concept demonstrations, with more than 10 additional states to provide similar services.

A New Operating System for Roadways

infrastructure issue is imperative for both economic and ecological reasons. Further, more than 43,000 people lose their lives each year while using the nation’s transportation network of streets, roads and highways, which represents a failure in public safety and policy. On February 2, 2023, the U.S. Department of Transportation declared a national crisis and state of emergency for roadway safety and launched an urgent roadway safety call-to-action demanding stakeholders to commit to specific actions to reverse the spike in serious injuries and deaths on our roadways.

To address urgent transportation issues and ensure the competitiveness of the U.S. economy, an unprecedented amount of funding has been made available from the federal government through the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, or IIJA, 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, and 2022 CHIPS and Science Act to create digitally-enabled transportation infrastructure that will provide public goods and new economic value. This represents a once-in-a-generation level of investment and bipartisan support for creating and scaling transportation digital infrastructure for the 21st century. Rather than completely rebuilding existing infrastructure, we expect the focus to be on using the power of funding and policymaking to leverage off previous investments by promoting new technology layers and facilitating access to digital infrastructure systems throughout the country.

Roadway Intelligence

Since the inception of our efforts, we have been dedicated to becoming a leader in roadway intelligence by collecting, connecting and organizing global mobility data. Today, our comprehensive portfolio offers multiple cutting-edge, AI-driven, edge-based IoT devices for roadside data collection, a vast array of curated and integrated data sets from a network of transportation ecosystem data providers, tailored platforms, applications and data streams that provide accurate, real-time and predictive actionable insights about moving objects on roadways.

We specialize in collecting and aggregating mobility-related data from multiple sources into our Rekor One^™ roadway intelligence engine, transforming this data into knowledge and actionable insights, and securely distributing those insights to multiple users across our software platforms and applications. Our proprietary technologies use recent advances in artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analysis, edge processing and communications. They are designed to be integrated into existing roadway and roadway sensor infrastructure to deliver real-time and predictive analytics that address critical challenges in transportation management, public safety, urban mobility and other key commercial markets.

By applying a multi-layer architectural approach and protocols inspired by the Open System Interconnection, or OSI, model, which was instrumental in creating computer operating systems in the 1970s and the internet in the 1980s, we are collaborating with members of the Rekor Partner Network to integrate various transportation infrastructure systems into a cohesive network of roadway intelligence assets and insights. This involves consolidating fragmented and disparate systems, as well as adding new layers of connectivity, to create a unified infrastructure. To achieve this goal, we are working closely with a wide range of stakeholders, including local, state and federal government agencies, law enforcement, transit providers, infrastructure owners/operators, automotive OEMs and technology and communications providers.

We are working to build a future for our customers where the mobility internet is interactive, generating and distributing real-time transportation intelligence to improve traffic management, public safety, maintenance, emergency services and planning agencies, as well as by connected and autonomous vehicles. Our primary objective has been and remains to develop a unique and differentiated suite of products and services that will play a central

role in facilitating this process, while aligning with key partners in the transportation ecosystem to provide the most comprehensive view of roadways. We will continue to optimize our investments to uniquely combine physical and digital infrastructure that is foundational to a new operating system for the roadways. As agencies plan for and build the transportation network of the future, we expect to play a critical and disproportionately valuable role in meeting the essential need for real-time and predictive roadway intelligence.

Roadway Intelligence Powered by Rekor

Our cutting-edge technology and domain expertise gives us a position of strength in the emerging field of roadway intelligence. At the core of our roadway intelligence solutions is the Rekor One^™ roadway intelligence engine, as illustrated below. It is through this engine, fueled by rich data and purpose-built to be a single source of truth to address diverse use cases, that we deliver a range of solutions that cater to public safety, urban mobility, transportation management and commercial markets. This engine facilitates the efficient collection, analysis and distribution of vast amounts of data, unlocking real-time and predictive operational insights. Within Rekor One^®, our proprietary algorithms curate data from multiple sources, including edge-based IoT devices, existing roadway sensors and a growing network of transportation data partners, unlocking multiple additional data points. We use this data to generate multi-dimensional insights in real-time, and AI-driven predictive analytics that leverage patterns of what happened in the past so that we can forecast what will happen in the future. These insights enable our customers to make better-informed proactive decisions and achieve improved operational efficiency through strategic resource allocation.

Our solutions can support diverse use cases, including real-time incident detection and response, data driven traffic operations and traffic management, proactive traffic calming around events, Federal Highway Administration, or FHWA, mandated vehicle classification, counts, and speed collection and reporting, analytics for bicycle, pedestrians and other micro-mobility modes, patterns and hot spots for greenhouse gas emissions, high-definition video management and traffic surveillance, law enforcement and intelligence-based policing, citation management, contactless compliance and enforcement. With our advanced technology and domain expertise, we are well-equipped to serve multiple public agencies and private sector segments with comprehensive roadway intelligence.

Traffic Data Collection

Through STS, we have over 30 years of traffic data collection experience with a strong footprint in the United States, including existing customers such as DOTs in Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Pennsylvania, Alabama and Ohio. Through ATD, we are involved in data collection in California, Colorado, Arizona, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, New Mexico, Kansas, Tennessee and Washington. We have begun the implementation of our advanced systems with these existing customers. In addition, we are currently in various stages of proof of concept studies with more than 10 additional states that have expressed interest in using our AI technology to improve the efficiency and safety of traffic data collection.

Business Strategy

Corporate Information

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision or acquiring any offered securities pursuant to this prospectus, 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, in light of your particular investment objectives and financial circumstances. 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 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. Moreover, the risks so described are not the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently perceive as immaterial may ultimately prove more significant than expected and impair our business operations. Any of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks and you may lose all or part of your investment. This prospectus and the incorporated documents also contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but rather are plans and predictions based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about our industry, our beliefs, and assumptions. We use words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “assume,” and variations of these words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Statements in this prospectus and the other documents incorporated by reference that are not historical facts are hereby identified as “forward-looking statements” for the purpose of the safe harbor provided by Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Section 27A of the Securities Act. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include those described in the section above entitled “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2024, and the risks detailed from time to time on our future reports filed with the SEC.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement are made as of the date of this prospectus or, in the case of any accompanying prospectus supplement or documents incorporated by reference, the date of any such document. Over time, our actual results, performance, or achievements may differ from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse to our security holders. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. We have identified some of the important factors that could cause future events to differ from our current expectations and they are described in this prospectus under the captions “Risk Factors,” and as well as in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in other documents that we may file with the SEC, all of which you should review carefully. Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of those risks as you read this prospectus and any prospectus supplement.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Except as set forth in any accompanying prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of any securities offered under this prospectus for general corporate purposes unless the applicable prospectus supplement provides otherwise. General corporate purposes may include, and are not limited to, research and development costs, the acquisition or licensing of other businesses, strategic investments in complementary businesses, products, services, or technologies, including companies that might benefit from the use of Rekor’s technology, working capital and capital expenditures. We cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from any securities offered offering or the amounts we will actually spend on the uses set forth above. However, we do not have agreements or commitments to enter into any such acquisitions or investments at this time. The expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our present plans and business conditions. We will have broad discretion over how to use the net proceeds to us from any securities offered under this prospectus.

The amount of what, and timing of when, we actually spend for these purposes may vary significantly and will depend on a number of factors, including our future revenue and expenses and the other factors described in the section of this prospectus captioned “Risk Factors” and under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and/or Current Reports on Form 8-K. We may temporarily invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation instruments, including investment grade instruments, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government, or may hold such proceeds as cash, until they are used for their stated purpose. We have not determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for such purposes. As a result, management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of net proceeds.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

Our authorized capital stock consists of 300,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share.

As of July 25, 2024, there were 88,491,706 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

On January 2, 2024, the Company acquired all of the outstanding limited liability interests of ATD for consideration comprising cash and common stock. In connection with the acquisition, the Company held back 664,329 shares of common stock consideration to satisfy any potential indemnification and other obligations of the prior owner of ATD, to be issued to the prior owner on the first anniversary of the closing of the acquisition. In accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement, 664,329 shares of our common stock have been reserved for issuance on January 2, 2025, subject to adjustment to satisfy indemnification or other obligations of the prior owner, if any.

Common Stock

Dividend Rights

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our Board of Directors, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our Board of Directors may determine.

Voting Rights

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, does not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors. As a result, the holders of a majority of our voting shares can elect all of the directors then standing for election.

No Preemptive or Similar Rights

Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of our common stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, subject to prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights of and the payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Preferred Stock

Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, our Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations, or restrictions, in each case without further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors can also increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of preferred stock, but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in our control and might adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock. We have no current plans to issue any shares of preferred stock and there are no shares of preferred stock currently issued and outstanding.

Outstanding Public Warrants

The Company has warrants outstanding that are exercisable into a total of 4,331,100 shares of common stock as of July 25, 2024.

Outstanding Options, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Equity Awards

The Company has 2,339,034 shares of our common stock that are subject to outstanding options and restricted stock units as of July 25, 2024.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

The provisions of Delaware law, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company. These provisions, which are summarized below, may have the effect of discouraging takeover bids. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Delaware Law

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, regulating corporate takeovers. In general, DGCL Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the person became an interested stockholder unless:

•

prior to the date of the transaction, the Board of Directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

•

the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, (1) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (2) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

•

at or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66.67% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction or series of transactions together resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock. We expect the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions our board of directors does not approve in advance. We also anticipate that DGCL Section 203 may also discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as Amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws

Certain anti-takeover provisions have been incorporated into our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws, including:

•

the vote of 66 2/3 of the voting power of the corporation entitled to vote at an election of directors is required for the removal of a member of our Board;

•

the vote of 66 2/3 of the voting power of the corporation entitled to vote at an election of directors is required before any of our Bylaws may, at any annual meeting or at any special meeting called for that purpose, be altered, amended, rescinded or repealed; and

•

the request of one or more stockholders holding shares in the aggregate entitled to cast not less than 35% of the vote at a meeting is required to call a stockholder meeting.

Listing of Common Shares

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “REKR.”

Transfer Agent and Registrar

immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default or Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing. (Section 5.1)

Defaults and Notice

Unless otherwise specified in the resolution of our board of directors, supplemental indenture or officer’s certificate establishing a series of debt securities, “Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

•

failure to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, on any debt security when the same becomes due and payable at Maturity, upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise;

•

failure to make a payment of any interest on any debt security of such series when due and payable, and the default continues for a period of 30 days;

•

failure to perform or observe any other covenants or agreements in the indenture with respect to the debt securities of the series or in the Indenture for 60 days after written notice from the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of the series then outstanding, with such notice specifying the default, demanding that it be remedied and stating that the notice is a “Notice of Default”;

•

certain events relating to our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of a Significant Subsidiary;

•

certain cross defaults, if and as applicable; and

•

any other Event of Default specified in the resolution of our board of directors, supplemental indenture or officer’s certificate establishing such series of debt securities. (Section 6.1)

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. (Section 6.2) The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our subsidiary outstanding from time to time.

If an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the trustee if given by the holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all debt securities of that series. In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal (or such specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind and annul the acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture and such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree. (Section 6.2) We refer you to the prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

The trustee is entitled to be indemnified by holders of debt securities before proceeding to exercise any trust or power under the indenture at the request of such holders. (Section 6.6) The holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the trustee for such series, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series. (Section 6.5) However, the trustee may decline to follow any such direction that conflicts with law or the indenture, or that the trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of the debt securities of such series not joining in such direction. (Section 6.5)

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding or pursue any remedy, with respect to the indenture or a series of debt securities, unless:

•

That holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to debt securities of that series; and

•

The holders of note less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series have made written request, and offered indemnity or security satisfactory to the trustee, to the trustee to institute the proceeding as trustee, and the trustee has failed to institute the proceeding within 60 days and has not received from the holder of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series a direction inconsistent with that request within such 60 day periods (Section 6.6).

No holder of debt securities under the indenture may use the indenture to prejudice the rights of another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder of debt securities. (Section 6.6)

Notwithstanding any other provision in the indenture, the holder of any debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment. (Section 6.7)

The indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of our fiscal year, to furnish to the trustee a statement as to compliance with the indenture. (Section 4.4) If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the securities of any series and if it is known to a responsible officer of the trustee, the trustee shall mail to each holder of the securities of that series notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a responsible officer of the trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default (except if such Default or Event of Default has been validly cured or waived before the trustee gives such notice). The indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any series of any Default or Event of Default (except in payment on any debt securities of that series) with respect to debt securities of that series if the trustee determines in good faith that withholding notice is in the interest of the holders of those debt securities. (Section 7.5)

Modification of the Indenture

We and the trustee may modify, amend or supplement the indenture or the debt securities of any series without the consent of any holder of any debt security:

•

to comply with covenants in the indenture described above under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets”;

•

to provide for uncertificated securities in addition to or in place of certificated securities;

•

to provide for certificated debt securities in addition to uncertificated debt securities;

•

to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

•

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any other change to the indenture or the debt securities that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any holder of our debt securities under the indenture;

•

to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of debt securities of any series as permitted by the indenture; or

•

to effect the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the debt securities of any series and to add to or change any of the provisions of the indenture to provide for or facilitate administration by more than one trustee. (Section 8.1)

We may also modify or supplement the indenture with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or supplement. The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each such series affected by the modifications or supplement may waive compliance by us in a particular instance with any provision of the indenture or the debt securities of such affected series of debt securities without notice to any holder of our debt securities. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of the holders of each affected debt security then outstanding if that amendment will:

•

reduce the amount of debt securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

•

reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any debt security;

•

reduce the principal of or premium on or change the fixed maturity of any debt security or reduce the amount of, or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation with respect to any series of debt securities;

•

make the principal of or premium or interest on any debt security payable in currency other than that stated in the debt security;

•

change the amount or time of any payment required by any debt security, or reduce the premium payable upon any redemption of any debt securities, or change the time before which no such redemption may be made;

•

waive a default in the payment of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, any debt security (except a rescission of acceleration of the debt securities of any series by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of that series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

•

waive a redemption payment with respect to any debt security, or change any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of any debt securities;

•

reduce the principal amount of discount securities payable upon acceleration of maturity; or

•

make any change to certain provisions of the indenture relating to the rights of holders to institute suit with respect to the indenture or the debt securities of a series and the modification or supplement of the indenture or the debt securities of any series requiring the consent of holders of our debt securities. (Section 8.2)

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series (Section 6.4); provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration. (Section 6.2)

Defeasance of Debt Securities and Certain Covenants in Certain Circumstances

Legal Defeasance. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, we may be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the debt securities of any series (subject to certain exceptions). We will be so discharged upon the irrevocable deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money or U.S. government obligations in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities.

This discharge may occur only if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that we have received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling or, since the date of execution of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the holders of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred. (Section 8.3)

Defeasance of Certain Covenants. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, upon compliance with certain conditions:

•

we may omit to comply with the covenant described under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” and certain other covenants set forth in the indenture, as well as any additional covenants which may be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement; and

•

any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of that series (“covenant defeasance”).

This is referred to as covenant defeasance. The conditions include:

•

depositing with the trustee money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal of, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities; and

•

delivering to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and related covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit and related covenant defeasance had not occurred. (Section 9.3).

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees or Shareholders

None of our past, present or future directors, officers, employees or shareholders, as such, will have any liability for any of our obligations under the debt securities or the indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a debt security, each holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the debt securities. However, this waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. (Section 10.9)

Governing Law

The indenture and the debt securities, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the indenture or the securities, will be governed by the laws of the State of New York. (Section 10.8)

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities in one or more series together with other securities or separately, as described in each applicable prospectus supplement. Below is a description of certain general terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer. Particular terms of the warrants will be described in the applicable warrant agreements and the applicable prospectus supplement for the warrants.

The applicable prospectus supplement will contain, where applicable, the following terms of and other information relating to the warrants:

•

the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock purchasable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase such shares and the price at which such number of shares may be purchased upon such exercise;

•

the designation, stated value and terms (including, without limitation, liquidation, dividend, conversion and voting rights) of the series of preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of warrants to purchase preferred stock;

•

the principal amount of debt securities that may be purchased upon exercise of a debt warrant and the exercise price for the warrants;

•

which may be payable in cash, securities or other property;

•

the date, if any, on and after which the warrants and the related debt securities, preferred stock or common stock will be separately transferable;

•

the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;

•

the date on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and the date on which the right will expire;

•

United States Federal income tax consequences applicable to the warrants; and

•

any additional terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures, and limitations relating to the exchange, exercise and settlement of the warrants.

Holders of equity warrants will not be entitled:

•

to vote, consent or receive dividends;

•

receive notice as shareholders with respect to any meeting of shareholders for the election of our directors or any other matter; or

•

exercise any rights as shareholders of Rekor.

Each warrant will entitle its holder to purchase the principal amount of debt securities or the number of shares of preferred stock or common stock at the exercise price set forth in, or calculable as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

A holder of warrant certificates may exchange them for new warrant certificates of different denominations, present them for registration of transfer and exercise them at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Until any warrants to purchase debt securities are exercised, the holder of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the debt securities that can be purchased upon exercise, including any rights to receive payments of principal, premium or interest on the underlying debt securities or to enforce covenants in the applicable indenture. Until any warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock are exercised, the holders of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the underlying common stock or preferred stock, including any rights to receive dividends or payments upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up on the common stock or preferred stock, if any.

Prospective purchasers of warrants should be aware that special United States federal income tax, accounting and other considerations may be applicable to instruments such as warrants. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe such considerations, to the extent they are material, as they apply generally to purchasers of such warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

We may issue subscription rights to purchase our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities. These subscription rights may be offered independently or together with any other security offered hereby and may or may not be transferable by the stockholder receiving the subscription rights in such offering. In connection with any offering of subscription rights, we may enter into a standby arrangement with one or more underwriters or other purchasers pursuant to which the underwriters or other purchasers may be required to purchase any securities remaining unsubscribed for after such offering.

The prospectus supplement relating to any subscription rights we offer, if any, will, to the extent applicable, include specific terms relating to the offering, including some or all of the following:

•

the price, if any, for the subscription rights;

•

the exercise price payable for our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities upon the exercise of the subscription rights;

•

the number of subscription rights to be issued to each stockholder;

•

the number and terms of our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities which may be purchased per each subscription right;

•

the extent to which the subscription rights are transferable;

•

any other terms of the subscription rights, including the terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of the subscription rights;

•

the date on which the right to exercise the subscription rights shall commence, and the date on which the subscription rights shall expire;

•

the extent to which the subscription rights may include an over-subscription privilege with respect to unsubscribed securities or an over-allotment privilege to the extent the securities are fully subscribed; and

•

if applicable, the material terms of any standby underwriting or purchase arrangement which may be entered into by us in connection with the offering of subscription rights.

The descriptions of the subscription rights in this prospectus and in any prospectus supplement are summaries of the material provisions of the applicable subscription right agreements. These descriptions do not restate those subscription right agreements in their entirety and may not contain all the information that you may find useful. We urge you to read the applicable subscription right agreements because they, and not the summaries, define your rights as holders of the subscription rights. For more information, please review the forms of the relevant subscription right agreements, which will be filed with the SEC promptly after the offering of subscription rights and will be available as described in the section of this prospectus captioned “Where You Can Find More Information.”

GLOBAL SECURITIES

Unless we indicate differently in any applicable prospectus supplement, the securities initially will be issued in book-entry form and represented by one or more global notes or global securities, or, collectively, global securities. The global securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC. Unless and until it is exchanged for individual certificates evidencing securities under the limited circumstances described below, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary to its nominee or by the nominee to the depositary, or by the depositary or its nominee to a successor depositary or to a nominee of the successor depositary.

DTC has advised us that it is:

•

a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law;

•

a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law;

•

a member of the Federal Reserve System;

•

a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and

•

a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act.

DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. “Direct participants” in DTC include securities brokers and dealers, including underwriters, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others, which we sometimes refer to as indirect participants, that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Purchases of securities under the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of the actual purchaser of a security, which we sometimes refer to as a beneficial owner, is in turn recorded on the direct and indirect participants’ records. Beneficial owners of securities will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases. However, beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of their transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased securities. Transfers of ownership interests in global securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the global securities, except under the limited circumstances described below.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all global securities deposited by direct participants with DTC will be registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee will not change the beneficial ownership of the securities. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the securities. DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participants are responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

So long as the securities are in book-entry form, you will receive payments and may transfer securities only through the facilities of the depositary and its direct and indirect participants. We will maintain an office or agency in the location specified in the prospectus supplement for the applicable securities, where notices and demands in respect of the securities and the indenture may be delivered to us and where certificated securities may be surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any legal requirements in effect from time to time.

Redemption notices will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the securities of a particular series are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in the securities of such series to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (or such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail an omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns the consenting or voting rights of Cede & Co. to those direct participants to whose accounts the securities of such series are credited on the record date, identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

So long as securities are in book-entry form, we will make payments on those securities to the depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of such securities, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If securities are issued in definitive certificated form under the limited circumstances described below and unless if otherwise provided in the description of the applicable securities herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will have the option of making payments by check mailed to the addresses of the persons entitled to payment or by wire transfer to bank accounts in the United States designated in writing to the applicable trustee or other designated party at least 15 days before the applicable payment date by the persons entitled to payment, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the applicable trustee or other designated party.

Redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments on the securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from us on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC records. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” Those payments will be the responsibility of participants and not of DTC or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC, is our responsibility, disbursement of payments to direct participants is the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of payments to the beneficial owners is the responsibility of direct and indirect participants.

Except under the limited circumstances described below, purchasers of securities will not be entitled to have securities registered in their names and will not receive physical delivery of securities. Accordingly, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of DTC and its participants to exercise any rights under the securities and the indenture.

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. Those laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in securities.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depositary is not obtained, securities certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

As noted above, beneficial owners of a particular series of securities generally will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in those securities. However, if:

•

DTC notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for the global security or securities representing such series of securities or if DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when it is required to be registered and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days of the notification to us or of our becoming aware of DTC’s ceasing to be so registered, as the case may be;

•

we determine, in our sole discretion, not to have such securities represented by one or more global securities; or

•

an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such series of securities, we will prepare and deliver certificates for such securities in exchange for beneficial interests in the global securities

we will prepare and deliver certificates for such securities in exchange for beneficial interests in the global securities. Any beneficial interest in a global security that is exchangeable under the circumstances described in the preceding sentence will be exchangeable for securities in definitive certificated form registered in the names that the depositary directs. It is expected that these directions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global securities.

Euroclear and Clearstream

If so provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, you may hold interests in a global security through Clearstream Banking S.A., which we refer to as “Clearstream,” or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, which we refer to as “Euroclear,” either directly if you are a participant in Clearstream or Euroclear or indirectly through organizations which are participants in Clearstream or Euroclear. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their respective participants through customers’ securities accounts in the names of Clearstream and Euroclear, respectively, on the books of their respective U.S. depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers’ securities accounts in such depositaries’ names on DTC’s books.

Clearstream and Euroclear are securities clearance systems in Europe. Clearstream and Euroclear hold securities for their respective participating organizations and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between those participants through electronic book-entry changes in their accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates.

Payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global securities owned through Euroclear or Clearstream must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, are also subject to DTC’s rules and procedures.

Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream payments, deliveries, transfers and other transactions involving any beneficial interests in global securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States.

Cross-market transfers between participants in DTC, on the one hand, and participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with the DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective U.S. depositaries; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (European time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depositary to take DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day fund settlement. Participants in Euroclear or Clearstream may not deliver instructions directly to their respective U.S. depositaries.

Due to time zone differences, the securities accounts of a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream purchasing an interest in a global security from a direct participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant participant in Euroclear or Clearstream, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear or Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global security by or through a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream to a direct participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.

Other

The information in this section of this prospectus concerning DTC, Clearstream, Euroclear and their respective book-entry systems has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we do not take responsibility for this information. This information has been provided solely as a matter of convenience. The rules and procedures of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear are solely within the control of those organizations and could change at any time. Neither we nor the trustee nor any agent of ours or of the trustee has any control over those entities and none of us takes any responsibility for their activities. You are urged to contact DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear or their respective participants directly to discuss those matters. In addition, although we expect that DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear will perform the foregoing procedures, none of them is under any obligation to perform

or continue to perform such procedures and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither we nor any agent of ours will have any responsibility for the performance or nonperformance by DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear or their respective participants of these or any other rules or procedures governing their respective operations.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

Below is a description of certain general terms and provisions of the units that we may offer. Particular terms of the units will be described in the applicable unit agreements and the applicable prospectus supplement for the units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the units that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete unit agreements that contain the terms of the units.

We may issue units comprised of our common stock, our preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights, purchase contracts, or any combination of such securities under this prospectus. Units may be issued in one or more series, independently or together with shares of our common stock, our preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights or purchase contracts, and the units may be attached to or separate from such securities. We may issue units directly or under a unit agreement to be entered into between us and a unit agent. We will name any unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement. Any unit agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the units of a particular series and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders or beneficial owners of units. 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. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units, including the following:

•

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 price or prices at which the units will be issued;

•

the date, if any, on and after which the securities included in the units will be separately transferable;

•

any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described in this section; and

•

any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer, or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities being offered by this prospectus separately or together:

•

directly to purchasers;

•

through agents;

•

to or through underwriters;

•

through dealers;

•

in “at-the-market” offerings (as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act);

through a combination of any of these methods of sale; or

•

through any other method permitted by applicable law and described in a prospectus supplement.

In addition, we may issue the securities being offered by this prospectus as a dividend or distribution. We may effect the distribution of the securities from time to time in one or more transactions:

•

at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;

•

at market prices prevailing at the times of sale;

•

at prices related to prevailing market prices; or

•

at negotiated prices.

For example, we may engage in at-the-market offerings into an existing trading market in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act. We may also sell securities through a rights offering, forward contracts or similar arrangements. In any distribution of subscription rights to stockholders, if all of the underlying securities are not subscribed for, we may then sell the unsubscribed securities directly to third parties or may engage the services of one or more underwriters, dealers or agents, including standby underwriters, to sell the unsubscribed securities to third parties.

The securities issued and sold under this prospectus will have no established trading market, other than our common stock, which is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Any shares of our common stock sold pursuant to this prospectus will be eligible for listing and trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to official notice of issuance. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold by us for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The securities, other than our common stock, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange or other trading market.

We will set forth in a prospectus supplement:

•

the terms of any underwriting or other agreement that we reach relating to sales under this prospectus;

•

the method of distribution of the securities;

•

the names of any agents, underwriters or dealers, including any managing underwriters, used in the offering of securities;

•

the terms of any direct sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, or the terms of any other transactions;

•

any delayed delivery obligations to take the securities;

•

the compensation payable to agents, underwriters and dealers, which may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions;

•

any activities that may be undertaken by agents, underwriters and dealers to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities; and

•

any indemnification and contribution obligations owing to agents, underwriters and dealers.

If we sell directly to institutional investors or others, they may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any resale of the securities. Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, if we sell through an agent, such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment. Any agent may be deemed to be an “underwriter” of the securities as that term is defined in the Securities Act. If a dealer is used in the sale of the securities, we or an underwriter will sell securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, in connection with an offering an underwriter may engage in over-allotments, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids. Over-allotments involve sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be otherwise. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.

To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, any underwriters who are qualified market makers on The Nasdaq Capital Market may engage in passive market making transactions in the securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market during the business day prior to the pricing of an offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of the securities. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.

The specific terms of any lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us, or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business for which they receive compensation.

No securities may be sold under this prospectus without delivery, in paper format or in electronic format, or both, of the applicable prospectus supplement describing the method and terms of the offering.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the securities offered under this prospectus will be passed upon by Crowell & Moring LLP, Washington, District of Columbia. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers or agents, by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. As appropriate, legal counsel representing the underwriters, dealers or agents will be named in the accompanying prospectus supplement and may opine to certain legal matters.
