When is the record date and who is entitled to vote?
Our Board of Directors set April 25, 2023 as the record date. Holders of record of shares of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof. At the close of business on the record date, there were [41,423,297] shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on any matter presented to stockholders at the Annual Meeting. You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to attend the Annual Meeting online and/or vote over the Internet. A complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for inspection by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting for at least ten days before the Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at our principal executive offices located at 6800 Koll Center Parkway, Pleasanton, CA 94566. Any stockholder who wishes to inspect the stockholder list for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting may call our Investor Relations department at 1-415-651-3172 to schedule an appointment.
To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included in your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If your shares are held in “street name,” you should contact your bank or broker to obtain your 16-digit control number or otherwise vote through the bank or broker. The meeting webcast will begin promptly at 1:00 pm Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin shortly before the meeting on June 20, 2023.
What is a stockholder of record?
A stockholder of record or registered stockholder is a stockholder whose ownership of Movano stock is reflected directly on the books and records of our transfer agent, Pacific Stock Transfer Company. If you hold stock through an account with a bank, broker or similar organization, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and are not a stockholder of record. For shares held in street name, the stockholder of record is your bank, broker or similar organization. We only have access to stock ownership information for registered stockholders. If you are not a stockholder of record, we will require additional documentation to evidence your stock ownership as of the record date and will ask you for the needed information during the time of registration. As described below, if you are not a stockholder of record, you will not be able to vote your shares unless you have a legal proxy from the stockholder of record authorizing you to vote your shares.
How do I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?
We recommend that stockholders vote by proxy even if they plan to attend the Annual Meeting and vote electronically. If you are a stockholder of record, there are three ways to vote by proxy:
By telephone. You can vote by calling 1-800-690-6903 with the control number included on the Notice or proxy card.
By Internet. You can vote over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com by following the instructions on the Notice or proxy card.
By mail. You can vote by mail by signing, dating and mailing the proxy card, which you may have received by mail.
Telephone and Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 19, 2023.
If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you will receive instructions on how to vote from the bank, broker or holder of record. You must follow the instructions of such bank, broker or holder of record in order for your shares to be voted.
How can I attend and vote at the Annual Meeting?
We will be hosting the Annual Meeting live via audio webcast. Any stockholder can attend the Annual Meeting live online at https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MOVE2023. If you were a stockholder as of the record date, or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting, you can vote at the Annual Meeting. A summary of the information you need to attend the Annual Meeting online is provided below:

Instructions on how to attend and participate via the Internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MOVE2023.
Assistance with questions regarding how to attend and participate via the Internet will be provided at https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MOVE2023 on the day of the Annual Meeting.
Webcast starts at 1:00 pm Pacific Time.
You will need your 16-Digit Control Number to enter the Annual Meeting.
Stockholders may submit questions while attending the Annual Meeting via the Internet. Stockholders may also submit questions in advance of the Annual Meeting via email at the following email address: ir@movano.com.
Webcast replay of the Annual Meeting will be available until June 20, 2024.
To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included in your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If your shares are held in “street name,” you should contact your bank or broker to obtain your 16-digit control number or otherwise vote through the bank or broker.
How can I change or revoke my vote?
If you are a stockholder of record, you may change or revoke your proxy any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by:
timely delivering a properly executed, later-dated proxy or submitting a proxy with new voting instructions using the telephone or internet voting system;
delivering a written revocation of your proxy to our Secretary at our principal executive offices on or before June 19, 2023; or
voting during the meeting.
If you hold your shares beneficially in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or nominee following the instructions they provide.
What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?
Stockholders of record. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit your proxy or sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion for any other matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting.
Beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.” If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is referred to as a “broker non-vote.”
What is the quorum for the Annual Meeting?
The presence in person or by proxy of the holders representing not less than one-third in voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum entitled to vote is necessary for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. This is called a quorum.
4

What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?
The following are the voting requirements for each proposal:
Proposal 1: Election of Directors. The two nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast will be elected as directors.
Proposal 2: Approval of Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation. The approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares by 75,000,000 shares requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon.
Proposal 3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Audit Committee’s appointment of Moss Adams as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023 may be ratified by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Company which are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon.
Which ballot measures are considered “routine” or “non-routine”?
The election of directors (“Proposal 1”) is considered to be a non-routine matter under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore there may be broker non-votes on Proposal 1.
The approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock by 75,000,000 shares (“Proposal 2”) and the ratification of the appointment of Moss Adams as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023 (“Proposal 3”) are considered to be routine matters under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee may generally vote on routine matters, so we do not expect there will be any broker non-votes with respect to Proposals 2 or 3.
How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?
Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal 1. Broker non-votes are not expected to occur with respect to Proposals 2 or 3.
Abstentions will be counted as votes present and entitled to vote on the proposals considered at the Annual Meeting and, therefore, will have the effect of votes against Proposals 2 and 3. Abstentions will have no effect on the proposal regarding the election of directors.
Who pays for solicitation of proxies?
The Company is paying the cost of soliciting proxies and will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for sending proxy materials to stockholders and obtaining their votes. In addition to soliciting the proxies by mail, certain of our directors, officers and regular employees, without compensation, may solicit proxies personally or by telephone, facsimile and email.
Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
We will announce voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting.
What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration or to nominate individuals to serve as directors at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders?
Requirements for Stockholder Proposals to Be Considered for Inclusion in the Company’s Proxy Materials. Stockholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders must be received by December 30, 2023. In addition, all proposals will need to comply with Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which lists the requirements for the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. Stockholder proposals must be delivered to the Company’s Secretary at 6800 Koll Center Parkway, Pleasanton, California 94566.

PROPOSAL 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
General
At the 2023 Annual Meeting, two Class II directors are to be elected, each to hold office until the 2026 Annual Meeting and until his respective successor is elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal.
Our Board of Directors currently consists of six members and is divided into three classes serving terms of three years. Stockholders elect one class of directors at each annual meeting. The class up for election at the 2023 Annual Meeting is Class II, whose members are currently John Mastrototaro and Rubén Caballero.
Upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of our Board of Directors, our Board of Directors has nominated and recommended John Mastrototaro and Rubén Caballero for election to our Board of Directors as Class II directors.
Shares represented by all proxies received by the Board and not marked so as to withhold authority to vote for any individual nominee will be voted FOR the election of the nominees named below. The Board knows of no reason why any nominee would be unable or unwilling to serve, but if such should be the case, proxies may be voted for the election of some other person nominated by the Board.
The following table sets forth the nominees to be elected at the Annual Meeting, the year such director was first elected as a director, and the positions currently held by each director with the Company.

INFORMATION CONCERNING DIRECTORS AND NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR
Set forth below is background information for each current director and nominee for director, as well as information regarding additional experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led the Board to conclude that such director or nominee should serve on the Board.
Nominees for Class II Directors
John Mastrototaro, Ph.D., age 62, has served as a director of the Company since December 2020 and as President and CEO since April 2021. Mr. Mastrototaro has over 30 years of experience in the medical device industry, leading innovation and bringing new products to the market. Mr. Mastrototaro served as the Chief Operating Officer of Orthosensor, Inc. from 2017 to March 2021. Previously, Mr. Mastrototaro spent the majority of his career with Medtronic, PLC. and MiniMed, Inc., where he was instrumental in initiating and leading a series of firsts in the world of diabetes, including the ambulatory continuous glucose monitoring system, the sensor augmented insulin pump and the early generations of the artificial pancreas. Prior to joining Orthosensor, Mr. Mastrototaro was Medtronic’s first VP of Informatics from 2013 to 2017, a role in which he helped develop a corporate strategy for the use of data and analytics to improve healthcare delivery. During his tenure in Medtronic’s Diabetes division, Mr. Mastrototaro held a number of positions, including CTO, VP of R&D and Business Development and Global VP of Clinical Research and Health Affairs. Mr. Mastrototaro started his career with Eli Lilly. He holds a B.A. in Mathematics and Physics from Holy Cross College and M.S. and Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. Mr. Mastrototaro has authored over 50 peer reviewed manuscripts and holds over 60 US patents. We believe Mr. Mastrototaro is qualified to serve on our board of directors based on his background, experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, and that his significant knowledge of, and breadth of experience in, the medical device industry in general and diabetes monitoring and care in particular provides valuable insight to our board.
Rubén Caballero, age 55, has served as a director of the Company since November 2019. Since April 2020, Mr. Caballero has served as Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President of Devices & Technology Engineering for the Mixed Reality Division, where he oversees Mixed Reality, AI and other special projects. Mr. Caballero served as a Vice President of Engineering at Apple from 2005 until April 2019, where he was one of the founding leaders of the iPhone hardware design team and later expanded his role to include iPad, Apple Watch, Macintosh, and other hardware products. Mr. Caballero’s senior role at Apple provided him with the opportunity to build and scale global teams, including the Wireless Design and Technology team for all the products/ecosystems at Apple, including the iPhone, iPad, Macs, AirPods, HomePod, and accessories. Before Apple, Mr. Caballero worked at two start-ups, where he led efforts for designing innovative products and core technology for wireless networked audio components and devices. Since August 2019, Mr. Caballero has served as a member of the board of directors of Resonant Inc.

Mr. Caballero received a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from École Polytechnique de Montréal, a Master in Electrical Engineering from New Mexico State University and an Honorary Doctorate from École Polytechnique de Montréal. We believe Mr. Caballero is qualified to serve on our board of directors based on his extensive experience in the technology industry, and his technical expertise gained from working with wireless technologies and commercializing products for one of the world’s largest technology companies.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES AND BOARD MATTERS
Director Independence
Our Board has determined that each of Rubén Caballero, Brian Cullinan, Nan Kirsten Forte, and Emily Fairbairn are “independent directors” as such term is defined by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2).
Board Leadership Structure
The Board has an independent chairperson, meaning that the positions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are not held by a single individual. The Board believes that having an independent chairperson ensures that management is subject to independent and objective oversight and the independent directors have an active voice in the governance of the Company.
Policy Governing Security Holder Communications with the Board of Directors
Security holders who wish to communicate directly with the Board, the independent directors of the Board or any individual member of the Board may do so by sending such communication by certified mail addressed to the Chair of the Board, the entire Board, to the independent directors as a group or to the individual director or directors, in each case, c/o Secretary, Movano Inc., 6800 Koll Center Parkway, Pleasanton, California 94566. The Secretary reviews any such security holder communication and forwards relevant communications to the addressee.
Employee, Officer and Director Hedging
Pursuant to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, directors, officers, employees and and/or consultants of the Company and its affiliates, as well as any immediate family members sharing the household of any of the foregoing are prohibited from engaging in transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivative securities, relating to the Company.
Policies Regarding Director Nominations
The Board has delegated to its Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee responsibility for establishing membership criteria for the Board, identifying individuals qualified to become directors consistent with such criteria and recommending the director nominees.
The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for, among other things: (1) recommending to the Board persons to serve as members of the Board, (2) considering the recommendation of candidates to serve as directors submitted from the stockholders of the Company, (3) assisting the Board in evaluating the Board’s and its committees’ performance, (4) advising the Board regarding the appropriate board leadership structure for the Company, (5) reviewing and making recommendations to the Board on corporate governance and (6) reviewing the size and composition of the Board and recommending to the Board any changes it deems advisable.
The Board seeks members from diverse professional backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of relevant industry and strategic experience and expertise that, in concert, offer us and our stockholders diversity of opinion and insight in the areas most important to us and our corporate mission. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has not set specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by director candidates. Rather, in determining candidates to recommend to the Board to serve as members of the Board, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will consider, among other things, whether a candidate is of the highest ethical character and shares the Company’s values and whether the candidate’s reputation, both personal and professional, is consistent with the image and reputation of the Company. In addition, nominees for director are selected to have complementary, rather than overlapping, skill sets. However, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee does not have a formal policy concerning the diversity of the Board.
14

Procedures for Recommendation of Director Nominees by Stockholders
The policy of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is to consider properly submitted stockholder recommendations for director candidates. To submit a recommendation to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee for director nominee candidates, a stockholder must make such recommendation in writing and include:
the name and address of the stockholder submitting the recommendation, the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the recommendation is made and the director candidate;
the class and number of shares of stock of the Company that are owned beneficially and of record by the stockholder and, if applicable, the beneficial owner, including the holding period for such shares as of the date of the recommendation;
full biographical information concerning the director candidate, including a statement about the candidate’s qualifications;
all other information regarding each director candidate proposed by such stockholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission;
description of all arrangements or understandings among the stockholder and the candidate and any other person or persons pursuant to which the recommendation is being made;
description of all relationships between the candidate and any of the Company’s competitors, customers, suppliers, labor unions or other persons with special interests regarding the Company; and
a written consent of the candidate to be named in the Company’s proxy statement and to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected by the stockholders.
Recommendations must be sent to the Chairman of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, c/o Secretary, Movano Inc., 6800 Koll Center Parkway, Pleasanton, California 94566. The Secretary must receive any such recommendation for nomination not later than the close of business on the 120th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 150th day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement delivered to stockholders in connection with the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that with respect to a special meeting of stockholders called by the Company for the purpose of electing directors to the Board, the Secretary must receive any such recommendation not earlier than the 90th day prior to such special meeting nor later than the later of (x) the close of business on the 60th day prior to such special meeting or (y) the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which a public announcement is first made regarding such special meeting. We will promptly forward any such nominations to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Once the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee receives a recommendation for a director candidate, such candidate will be evaluated in the same manner as other candidates and a recommendation with respect to such candidate will be delivered to the Board.
Policy Governing Director Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders
Although the Company does not have a formal policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings of stockholders, each director is encouraged and expected to attend the Annual Meeting. All but two of our directors then serving on the Board of Directors attended the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.
Code of Ethics and Conduct
We have in place a Corporate Code of Ethics and Conduct (the “Code of Ethics”) that applies to all of our directors, officers, employees, agents and contractors. The Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications that we make;
compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
15

the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethics to an appropriate person identified in the Code of Ethics; and
accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethics.
A current copy of the Code of Ethics is available at www.movano.com. A copy may also be obtained, free of charge, from us upon a request directed to Movano Inc., 6800 Koll Center Parkway, Pleasanton, California 94566, attention: Investor Relations. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of a provision of the Code of Ethics required to be disclosed by applicable SEC rules by posting such information on our website available at www.movano.com and/or in our public filings with the SEC.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES
Board of Directors
Our bylaws state that the number of directors constituting the entire Board shall consist of one or more members to be determined by resolution of a majority of the whole Board and that the Board has the authority to fill any vacancies on the Board.

Our Board met thirteen times during the year ended December 31, 2022. During 2022, no director attended less than 75 percent of all meetings of the Board and applicable committee meetings in 2022 held during the period for which he or she was a director, except for Mr. Caballero. The Board currently has standing Audit, Compensation, and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committees. The Board and each standing committee retains the authority to engage its own advisors and consultants. Each committee has a charter that has been approved by the Board.

Each committee reviews the appropriateness of its charter annually or at such other intervals as such committee determines.

18

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee is comprised of Mr. Caballero, Mr. Cullinan and Ms. Fairbairn. None of the current or former members of the Audit Committee is an officer or employee of the Company, and the Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets the independence requirements promulgated by The Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC, including Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act.
The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls and the certification of the integrity and reliability of the Company’s internal controls procedures. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and has discussed them with both management and Moss Adams LLP (“Moss Adams”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The Audit Committee has reviewed permitted services under rules of the SEC as currently in effect and discussed with Moss Adams its independence from management and the Company, including the matters in the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee has also considered and discussed the compatibility of non-audit services provided by Moss Adams with that firm’s independence.
Based on its review of the financial statements and the aforementioned discussions, the Audit Committee concluded that it would be reasonable to recommend, and on that basis did recommend, to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report.
Respectfully submitted by the Audit Committee.

COMPENSATION AND OTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING
DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Our compensation philosophy is to offer our executive officers compensation and benefits that are competitive and meet our goals of attracting, retaining and motivating highly skilled management, which is necessary to achieve our financial and strategic objectives and create long-term value for our stockholders. We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable and appropriate for our business needs and circumstances. The principal elements of our executive compensation program have to date included base salary and long-term equity compensation in the form of stock options. We believe successful long-term Company performance is more critical to enhancing stockholder value than short-term results. For this reason and to conserve cash and better align the interests of management and our stockholders, we emphasize long-term performance-based equity compensation over base annual salaries.
The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation earned by the individual that served as our Principal Executive Officer during 2022 and our two most highly compensated executive officers other than the individual who served as our Principal Executive Officer during 2022 (collectively, the “named executive officers”):

PROPOSAL 2— AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES
The Board is seeking stockholder approval of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, which would increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 75,000,000 to 150,000,000. The proposed Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (referred to in this Proposal 2 as the “Certificate of Amendment”) is attached hereto as Appendix A.
The newly authorized shares of Common Stock would have the same rights as the currently outstanding shares of our Common Stock. As of March 31, 2023, 41,377,867 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding, 193,960 shares were subject to outstanding restricted stock awards, 8,180,855 options to purchase shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding under our Amended and Restated 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan, 5,354,449 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans, and 4,555,943 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock purchase warrants. Additionally, we may issue additional shares of our Common Stock through our ATM Agreement with B. Riley Securities, Inc. Accordingly, 59,469,114 of the 75,000,000 authorized shares of our Common Stock are currently issued or reserved while 15,530,886 of the authorized shares of our Common Stock remain available for future issuance.
Reasons for the Increase in Authorized Shares
The Board believes that the increase in authorized shares would be beneficial for the following reasons:
Ensure that an adequate number of shares are available for potential future corporate purposes. An increase in the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock enables us to have a sufficient number of shares available for a variety of possible future corporate purposes, including issuance of stock under existing equity compensation plans. However, we have no plans, arrangements, or understandings to issue any of the newly issued authorized shares for any purpose at this time.
Enable equity transactions to raise additional capital. The availability of additional shares of our Common Stock will permit us to raise capital through equity transactions. Any such additional capital may be used for a variety of purposes including general corporate and working capital purposes. Except for the $44.8 million of Common Stock remaining available to be sold under our ATM Agreement with B. Riley Securities, Inc., we have no plans, arrangements or understandings for any equity financing transactions at this time.
Implementation of the Authorized Share Increase
Following stockholder approval of this proposal, the authorized share increase would be implemented by our filing the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. However, at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Board reserves the right to abandon this proposal and to not file the Certificate of Amendment, even if approved by the stockholders of the Corporation, if the Board, in its discretion, determines that such amendment is no longer advisable and in the best interests of the Corporation or its stockholders.
Vote Required for Approval
The affirmative vote of the stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the Certificate of Amendment.
Board Recommendation
The Board recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” the approval and adoption of the Certificate of Amendment as described in this Proposal 2.

PROPOSAL 3—RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Stockholder Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed Moss Adams LLP (“Moss Adams”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. We are presenting this selection to our stockholders for ratification at the annual meeting.
Moss Adams audited our financial statements for 2022. A representative of Moss Adams is expected to attend the Annual Meeting. In addition to having the opportunity to make a statement, the Moss Adams representative will be available to respond to any appropriate questions.
The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed by Moss Adams for audit and non-audit services related to 2021 and 2022, including “out-of-pocket” expenses incurred in rendering these services. The nature of the services provided for each category is described following the tables.

(2)
Tax Fees include research and development tax credits, federal and state tax compliance, and general tax consultation services.
Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that requires that all services to be provided by the Company’s independent public accounting firm, including audit services and permitted non-audit services, to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to its chairman when necessary due to timing considerations. Any services pre-approved by such chairman must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee pre-approved all services provided by Moss Adams during 2022.
Vote Required for Approval
Ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the voting stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon. If our stockholders fail to ratify the selection of Moss Adams as the independent registered public accounting firm for 2023, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year.
Board Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote FOR ratification of the appointment of Moss Adams as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Since January 1, 2021 and other than compensation agreements and other arrangements, which are described as required by applicable SEC rules under the heading “Executive and Director Compensation” above, there has not been, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a party in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000 in which any director, executive officer, holder of five percent or more of any class of our capital stock or any member of their immediate families had or will have a direct or indirect material interest except as described below.
On January 27, 2023, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Newbridge Securities Corporation (the “Underwriter”), relating to an underwritten offering (the “Offering”) of 4,644,000 shares (“Company Shares”) of Common Stock and warrants to purchase up to 2,322,000 shares of Common Stock (“Warrants”). Each Warrant has a five year term and an exercise price of $1.57 per share. The Warrants were offered and sold at the rate of one Warrant for every two Company Shares purchased in the Offering. The Offering closed on January 31, 2023. Certain of our directors and executive officers participated in the Offering as follows:

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