SUMMARY

Overview

Innovega was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 16, 2008 as “Innovega Inc.” Innovega is developing a display eyewear system for Extended Reality (XR) applications, which include Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality. Innovega’s Extended Reality eyewear system comprises novel, disposable, smart contact lenses or surgically implanted intraocular lenses, and lightweight, stylish display eyewear. The company has developed prototype contact lenses, intraocular lenses, and display eyewear. The contact lenses and intraocular lenses are regulated medical devices and require a market clearance or an approval from regulatory bodies before commercialization. Present contact lenses and intraocular lenses include proprietary two-state light polarizing filters and, in the future, may include other filter components. The display eyewear includes a microdisplay screen, electronics, operating software, and depending on the application may include cameras and other sensors. Innovega will first conduct a US FDA 510(k) clinical trial for market clearance of the lens material. A subsequent de novo clinical trial must be conducted for the new indication for viewing a near eye wearable display. While daily wear contact lenses are generally classified as Class II, non-significant risk devices, the FDA will make a final ruling for the contact lenses as either Class II, non-significant risk or Class III, significant risk after the de novo submission. The intraocular lenses are optically designed in prototype form and without clinical development. The intraocular lenses are expected to require a de novo regulatory path as a Class III, significant risk device. The display eyewear will be submitted to the FDA for a market clearance as a Class I device before commercialization.

Innovega intends to license its display platform or sell proprietary components to companies that will produce and market Extended Reality lenses and eyewear for applications that could include quality of life enhancement for the sensory impaired, including the visually impaired and legally blind, for the hearing impaired, and for those suffering cognitive or other impairments. Other applications may relate to: anytime and anywhere information and entertainment; telecommunications; video gaming; defense, security and intelligence, and enterprise; surgical visualization and telemedicine; and athlete training and sports analytics.

The Offering

Securities outstanding after the Offering:

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

As an issuer with less than $1 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant if and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act upon filing a Form 8-A. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards, and hereby elect to do so. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

Selected Risks Associated with Our Business

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

RISK FACTORS

The SEC requires the company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments such as cyber-attacks and the ability to prevent such attacks. Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently more risky than more developed companies, and the risk of business failure and complete loss of your investment capital is present. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

Risks Related to Our Company

The development and commercialization of the Company’s products and services are highly competitive. We face competition with regard to any products and services that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Our competitors include major companies worldwide. The Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) markets are an emerging industry where new competitors are entering the market frequently. Many of the Company’s competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and human resources and may have superior expertise in research and development and marketing and may be better equipped than us to develop and commercialize services. These competitors also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified personnel and acquiring technologies. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies. Accordingly, our competitors may commercialize products more rapidly or effectively than we are able to, which would adversely affect its competitive position, the likelihood that our services will achieve initial market acceptance and our ability to generate meaningful additional revenues from our products and services.

Our expenses will significantly increase as we seek to execute and prove the current licensing business model. Although we estimate that we have enough working capital to fund activities through the end of the second quarter of 2022, our plans are to increase our use of cash to hire additional staff, expand our Research and Development, Clinical and Regulatory efforts, and fund our other operations. Following the closing of this offering we will further increase our activities and expenses. Proving success of our business model will require significant effort and expenses. We will need to raise sufficient working capital to cover these new and higher expenses and if we cannot, we will not be able to execute on our current business model.

Outbreak of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has adversely impacted global commercial activity and contributed to significant declines and resulted in volatility in financial markets. The coronavirus pandemic and government responses are creating disruption in global supply chains and adversely impacting many industries. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate material adverse impact of the novel coronavirus. Nevertheless, the novel coronavirus presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our available funds, our performance, and our financial results.

Legislation and regulation have imposed restrictions and requirements on companies operating within the contact lens industry that could have an adverse effect on our business. The contact lens industry is regulated, and regulation may continue to constrain the industry. Rules and regulations may impose additional expenses on us may require the attention of senior management, and may result in fines if they are deemed to have violated any regulations. On the other hand, if regulations are loosened, it may be easier for new entrants to enter the market, which would increase the amount of competition that we face.

Contact lenses require regulatory clearance or approval. Contact lenses are regulated medical devices and require a market clearance or an approval from regulatory bodies. Our contact lens is worn during the waking hours and removed before sleep. Management expects it to be classified as a daily wear contact lens. Daily wear contact lenses are further classified as Class II, non-significant risk medical devices. Our contact lens will have a new indication for viewing a near-eye display. This new indication will require a clinical investigation to derive the evidence to support the claims of the indication. The final determination of the market clearances or approvals and the language of the claims for the indication is made by the respective regulatory bodies and there is no guarantee that the review of the clinical outcomes will result in a favorable granting of the clearance or approval for the new indication.

Our commercialization model depends on partner licensing and investment. Obtaining a significant number of new customer licensees is critical for our continued growth and operation. Because our technology has not previously been deployed in the marketplace, it is uncertain whether it will be accepted by prospective customer licensees and there is a risk that we will be unable to acquire and retain licensees due to a number of factors, including the proposed licensing fee, capital expenditure requirements, or questions surrounding commercial feasibility of our technology.

We are developing and we have yet to finalize the technologies that will allow commercial scale, and we may be unable to solve technical and other challenges that would allow our technology and designs to be economically attractive to prospective partner licensees. Although we have successfully built working prototypes, we have not demonstrated that our technology is viable on a commercial scale. Management has not applied the Company’s technology under commercial conditions or fabricated products in the volumes that will be required to be profitable. We cannot predict all of the difficulties that may arise. If we encounter significant engineering, clinical or other obstacles in preparing and launching its technology at commercial scale, our financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations could be adversely affected, and such effects could be material.

We have accrued approximately one million dollars in deferred compensation. If we choose to repay these deferred wages, the capital required could significantly impact our cash position and liquidity. This action might affect our ability to meet other financial obligations and meet our growth targets.

Widespread Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality adoption has been slower than expected over the past several years. Our success is dependent on consumer adoption of augmented and virtual reality, a relatively unproven market. If the rate of AR/VR adoption does not increase in the coming years, we may find a smaller market than expected for its products. We may incur substantial operating costs, particularly in sales and marketing and research and development, in attempting to develop these markets. If the market for our products develops more slowly than we expect, our growth may slow or stall, and our operating results would be harmed. The market for augmented reality is still evolving, and we depend on continued growth of this market. It is uncertain whether the trend of adoption of augmented reality that we have forecasted will be realized in the future.

Even if we raise the maximum amount of this Offering, we would still need additional capital. In order to achieve our mid- and long-term goals, we will need to procure funds in addition to the amount raised in the Offering. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise such funds on acceptable terms or at all. If we are not able to raise sufficient capital in the future, we will not be able to execute our business plan, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets, which could cause an investor in the Offering to lose all or a portion of their investment.

We rely heavily on our technology and intellectual property; even so, we may be unable to adequately or cost-effectively protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, thereby weakening our competitive position and increasing operating costs. To protect our rights in our services and technology, we will rely on a combination of copyright and trademark laws, patents, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements with employees and third parties, and protective contractual provisions. We will also rely on laws pertaining to trademarks and domain names to protect the value of our corporate brands and reputation. Despite our efforts to protect proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may copy aspects of the services or technology, obtain and use information, marks, or technology that we regard as proprietary, or otherwise violate or infringe our intellectual property rights. In addition, it is possible that others could independently develop substantially equivalent intellectual property. If we do not effectively protect our intellectual property, or if others independently develop substantially equivalent intellectual property, our competitive position could be weakened. Effectively policing the unauthorized use of our services and technology is time-consuming and costly, and the steps taken by us may not prevent misappropriation of our technology or other proprietary assets. The efforts it has taken to protect its proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective, and unauthorized parties may copy aspects of its services, use similar marks or domain names, or obtain and use information, marks, or technology that we regard as proprietary. We may have to litigate to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect its trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of others’ proprietary rights, which are sometimes not clear or may change. Litigation can be time-consuming and expensive, and the outcome can be difficult to predict.

We may be unable to maintain, promote, and grow our smart lens and smart glasses brand through marketing and communications strategies. It may prove difficult for us to dramatically increase the number of customers that we serve or to establish ourselves as a well-known brand in the competitive, B2B augmented and virtual reality space. In this case we may not be able to successfully execute on our current licensing business model.

Risks Related to the Securities in this Offering

In certain circumstances investors will not have dissenters’ rights. The Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering contains a “drag-along” provision whereby investors agree to vote any shares they own in the same manner as the majority holders of our other classes of stock. Specifically, and without limitation, if the majority holders of our other classes of stock determine to sell the company, depending on the nature of the transaction, investors will be forced to sell their stock in that transaction regardless of whether they believe the transaction is the best or highest value for their shares, and regardless of whether they believe the transaction is in their best interests.

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the subscription agreement, the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under these agreements. Investors in this offering will be bound by the subscription agreement and Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement both of which include a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against the company arising out of or relating to these agreements. By signing these agreements, the investor warrants that the investor has reviewed this waiver with his or her legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives the investor’s jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel.

If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of New York, which governs the subscription agreement and under the laws of State of Delaware which governs the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this is the case with respect to the subscription agreement and Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement. You should consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before entering into the subscription agreement and Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement.

If you bring a claim against the company in connection with matters arising under either the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement or the subscription agreement, including claims under federal securities laws, you may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to those claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against the company. If a lawsuit is brought against the company under the either of these agreements, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in such an action.

Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver provision is not permitted by applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the subscription agreement or Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the subscription agreement or Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement serves as a waiver by any holder of the shares or by us of compliance with any substantive provision of the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated under those laws.

In addition, when the shares are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations and restrictions applicable to the shares or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the shares, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the Shares, including but not limited to the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement or subscription agreement.

This investment is illiquid. There is no currently established market for reselling these securities. If you decide that you want to resell these securities in the future, you may not be able to find a buyer. You should assume that you may not be able to liquidate your investment for some time or be able to pledge these shares as collateral.

The Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock may receive less than its liquidation preference, or not any proceeds, in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our Series Seed Preferred Stock, Series A-1, Series A-2 and Series A-3 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Designated Preferred Stock”) shall be entitled to receive an amount per share for each share of Designated Preferred Stock held by them equal to the greater of (i) the Liquidation Preference specified for such share of Designated Preferred Stock, plus all declared but unpaid dividends (if any) on such share of Designated Preferred Stock, or such lesser amount as may be approved by the holders of the majority of the outstanding shares of Designated Preferred Stock or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Designated Preferred Stock been converted into common stock pursuant immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

If upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to the holders of the Designated Preferred Stock (and any other series of Preferred Stock entitled to share in such distribution on a parity with the Designated Preferred Stock) are insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full amounts owed, then the entire assets of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of the Designated Preferred Stock in proportion to the full amounts they would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant and as a result holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock could receive less than their liquidation preference.

After the payment of the full liquidation preference of the Designated Preferred Stock, the remaining assets, of the company legally available for distribution, if any, will be distributed ratably to the holders of the Common Stock in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder.

You will need to keep records of your investment for tax purposes. As with all investments in securities, if you sell our Series A-1 Preferred Stock at a profit or loss, you will probably need to pay tax on the long- or short-term capital gains that you realize, or apply the loss to other taxable income. If you do not have a regular brokerage account, or your regular broker will not hold our Series A-1 Preferred Stock for you (and many brokers refuse to hold securities issued under Regulation A) there will be nobody keeping records for you for tax purposes and you will have to keep your own records, and calculate the gain or loss on any sales of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock.

The value of your investment may be diluted if the company issues additional options. A pool of unallocated options is typically reserved for future employees, which affects the fully-diluted pre-money valuation for this offering. The price per share of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock has been calculated assuming a 1.67% post-money option pool, which may not account for all additional options the company will issue after the offering and may not provide adequate protection against the dilution investors may face due to such additional issuances. Any option issuances by the company over the 1.67% pool will lower the value of your shares. There is currently a total of 4,037,347 authorized shares available for option grants under the Company’s stock option plan.

DILUTION

Dilution means a reduction in value, control, or earnings of the shares the investor owns.

Immediate dilution

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options on its shares) to its founders and early employees at a low cash price, as they are typically putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the company seeks cash investments from outside investors, the new investors typically pay a higher price for their shares than the founders or earlier investors.

The following table compares the price that new investors are paying for their shares with the effective cash price paid by existing shareholders, giving effect to full conversion of all outstanding convertible notes and assuming that the new shares are sold at $3.00 per share. The schedule presents number of shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, so investors can understand what they will pay for their investment compared to what earlier parties have paid.

The following table presents the approximate effective cash price paid for all shares and potential shares issuable by the company as of September 30, 2021.

The following table describes the dilution that new investors will experience when they invest in the company and relative to the company’s existing holders of securities. This calculation is based on the net tangible assets of the Company; as such calculations are based on net tangible book value of $(2,608,957), at December 31, 2019, and as summarized in our audited financial statements. Hence this table does not include shares or SAFE agreements issued in 2020.

Offering costs assumed in the following table includes up to $657,647  in commissions to StartEngine Primary (assuming a $15 million raise) , Inc., as well as direct legal and accounting fees incurred in support of this Offering.

The table presents two amount raised scenarios: a $7,500,000 raise from this offering and a fully subscribed $15,000,000 raise from this offering (the maximum offering).

Future dilution

Another aspect of dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that each investor owns will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. In that event, the investor will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, or angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (ex. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

If the company decides to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share, although earnings per share typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most early-stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the company.

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. The example provided below is hypothetical and for illustrative purposes only:

This type of dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes into shares. Typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors. They receive more shares than the new investors would for the same price because of their earlier investment which may have been associated with greater risk. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes receive more shares for the same dollar amount of investment than new investors receive. In the event that the financing is a “down round” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do, because they get more shares for their money. Investors should pay careful attention to the number of convertible notes that the company has issued and may issue in the future, and the terms of those notes.

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of the company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

Overview

Innovega was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 16, 2008, as “Innovega Inc.” Innovega is developing a product solution architecture for Extended Reality (XR) eyewear which includes the categories of Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality. The Extended Reality eyewear is enabled by a novel smart contact lens or a surgically implanted intraocular lens. We developed and have prototype contact lenses, intraocular lenses and prototype display eyewear. These contact lenses and intraocular lenses include proprietary two-state light polarizing filters and the display eyewear include proprietary features and operating software. Innovega intends to license its technology to companies who will produce and market the Extended Reality system for applications including anytime and anywhere information and entertainment; telecommunications; gaming; defense, security and intelligence, enterprise; surgical visualization and telemedicine; athletic training and sports analytics; and quality of life enhancement for the sensory impaired including the visually impaired and legally blind, hearing impaired and those suffering cognitive impairment.

Our Background

Our business is based on our foundational patent, METHOD AND APPARATUS TO PROCESS DISPLAY AND NON-DISPLAY INFORMATION, US patent number 8,520,309, issued August 27, 2013, and more than 50 additional US and international patent cases. Our founding philosophy is that the resolution, field of view, and 3D potential of a wearable display is enhanced by placing the focusing optics on or in the eye; the bulk and weight of display eyewear is reduced by eliminating the optics from the eyewear; the conflict between the alignment of the eyes (vergence) and the focusing of the eyes (accommodation) is managed with the extended depth of field of the eye-borne optics; and, gaze tracking that is required for advanced mixed reality is more efficient with the use of a system based on fiducials placed on or in the contact lens.

We believe that the future of Extended Reality eyewear is dependent on the eyewear being lightweight and stylish and the optics being customized for the majority of potential users. We believe that one-size fits all display eyewear will not be any more successful than one-size-fits-all glasses would be. We hold that the geometric diversity of human facial features and head shapes will significantly impact the success of mass-produced one-size-fits-all display eyewear.

We believe that artificial intelligence systems will facilitate the cost-efficient delivery of customized smart contact lenses and display eyewear. High-precision patient specific contact lenses or intraocular lenses along with display eyewear will provide the performance defined as necessary for user acceptance of display eyewear. It is our assessment that for Innovega eyewear to be truly scalable they require a high degree of advanced engineering and systems for fitting along with novel user centered software and interfaces.

We believe that display eyewear should be designed and optimized to fit each user and in doing so will exceed the capabilities of even the most well-designed generic display systems. We believe that the use of patient specific display eyewear will, over time, reduce complication and failure rates and enhance the forecast growth of Extended Reality eyewear in the post mobile phone era.

Principal Products and Services

Our primary business includes licensing our intellectual property and know-how resulting from the process of design, prototyping, testing and patenting smart contact lenses; smart intraocular lenses; gaze tracking; sound management components; display eyewear; and computer program products that enable high resolution, full field of view, free eye-movement, obstruction free peripheral visual field, lightweight and stylish display eyewear; along with, auditory and visual sensory enhancement systems for display eyewear.

Innovega also provides for fee engineering services and consultation services to display eyewear licensees and to distribution partners in the ophthalmic industry for the purpose of enhancing the success rate with the smart contact lenses and intraocular lenses.

The Innovega technology driven fitting systems will eliminate the subjective differences in the measurement, selection and fitting of contact lenses and eyewear. The Innovega fitting system is intended to result in the selection of the same contact lens and eyewear size parameters at any location or by any personnel who assist the end user who will be wearing the contact lenses and display eyewear. Novel fitting instrumentation is in development by Innovega for the purpose of predicting the contact lens and eyewear parameters as well as presets for the viewing of the images in the eyewear. The contact lenses and display eyewear may be fit without our enabling technology. We believe that higher user satisfaction, better extended reality eyewear performance, and reduced fitting time will be experienced with our system for fitting the contact lenses and eyewear. The enabling fitting technology may be sold separately to eye care practitioners and fitting centers.

We intend to license the manufacture of the contact lenses and intraocular lenses to large, established ophthalmic industry leaders who are already commercially successful manufacturers and have decades of product specific manufacturing expertise. We intend to license to FDA registered ISO 13485 approved manufacturers with the proper Quality Management Systems and product specific expertise for the contact lenses and intraocular lenses.

We intend to license the manufacture of the display eyewear to industry leaders for the various applications and to their respective original equipment manufacturers when applicable. The potential licensees include providers in the fields of anytime and anywhere information and entertainment; telecommunications; gaming; defense, security and intelligence, enterprise; surgical visualization and telemedicine; athletic training and sports analytics; and quality of life enhancement for the sensory impaired including the visually impaired and legally blind, hearing impaired and those suffering cognitive impairment.

Market

Our first target market is the visually impaired population who are in need of vision enhancement to improve their independence and quality of life. We developed the iOptik^® smart contact lens and the eMacula^® display eyewear system to provide the widest field of view in a wearable image amplification system. We believe that the eyewear, produced and distributed by a global leader in electronic aids for the visually impaired, will be well positioned for acceptance by the significantly growing population of those affected by Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, and other conditions causing central vision loss.

Innovega executed its first License and Distribution agreement in the fourth quarter 2021, with the global leader in manufacturing and distribution of aids for the visually impaired including the legally blind. The agreement provides an exclusive, worldwide license for specific uses of Innoveg’s iOptik technology in the low vision and blind (LV&B) market in exchange for a royalty per unit of eyewear sold along with minimum annual royalty commitments.

The majority of visually impaired patients are female and 60 years of age and older and the prevalence accelerates above age 60 because of the impact of AMD. The current number of those suffering from some form of AMD in the United States is approximately 11 million people and expected to reach 22 million people by 2050. As the US population ages, led by the baby boomers who comprise 73 million of the US population, a strong correlative affect in AMD cases is predicted. The risk of vision impairing AMD between the ages of 50-59 is only 2% and increases to over 30% for those over 75. The number of people living with AMD globally is approximately 196 million and set to increase to 288 million by 2040. The substantial increase is due, mainly, to the large aging population as well as the increase in life expectancy.

Visually impaired patients need assistance to maintain employment and independent living. The segment younger than 70 have the greatest need to support their employment and productivity. Those over age 70 have the need for independent living and quality of life.

Most patients who will be using our technology are expected to be over the age of 55 and many of these patients would rely on insurance coverage to pay for their treatment. Partial reimbursement for services is in place for those covered by Medicare. The Medicaid program through States Department of Rehabilitation provide coverage for children through working adults. The two largest vision care plans, Vision Service Plan and EyeMed, provide partial coverage for medically necessary contact lenses and low vision devices for rehabilitation. The U.S. Veterans Health Administration report coverage for rehabilitation assessment and training to improve independence and quality of like, low vision devices and training in their use, and electronic and mechanical aids including adaptive computers and computer-assisted devices such as reading machines and electronic aids for the visually impaired.

Management believes that the market growth for wearable display aids for the visually impaired will be greater than the growth of the overall population with visual impairment primarily because of the limited market penetration of the current competitors. In particular, we have paid close attention to the market uptake of the current generation of competitive products. While no independent analysis reporting the number of users of competitive products has been sourced, we believe the total of all of the brands combined in use by the visually impaired in the U.S. is approximately 10,000. We believe the low penetration of wearable display devices for the visually impaired is due to the narrow field of view, low resolution, bulky and unattractive appearance, need to employ improved software and user interface technology, and need to personalize the fitting characteristics of the display eyewear.

Our management believes that wearable display image enhancement technology penetration for the visually impaired is inordinately low. Management believes that customized display eyewear with wide field of view and high resolution, with advanced software and user interface design in lightweight and stylish eyewear will significantly change the desire of low vision specialists to prescribe wearable display technology for their visually impaired patients. The demand for vision enhancement is present in the majority of visually impaired individuals who are otherwise healthy and driven to live more active and independent lifestyles or to perform at higher levels in their academic and vocational pursuits. Innovega’s technology is a medical device and will be prescribed by low vision specialists rather than purchased over the counter, online or through less sophisticated delivery systems. We believe we are in a prime position to capitalize on this underserved and growing market with the technology and product infrastructure we are developing and by the delivery through experienced low vision specialists.

Competition

The current competitive landscape in the low vision device market is saturated with solutions that have been proven to increase patients’ visual performance and quality of life albeit in a narrow field of view, high price point, and enclosed in a heavy head mounted device. Currently, the leading brands of competitive products include eSight, IrisVision, Eyedaptic, Acesight, NuEyes and Jordy. IrisVision offers a headset form factor with a wide field of view with the drawback of being heavy and socially isolating. The remainder are in an eyewear form factor while sharing negative performance and appearance limitations including a field of view that is approximately one-half of the Innovega technology, lower display resolution, greater weight and an obtrusive appearance when compared to the Innovega solution.

Management is not aware of any other solution in the market that can enable the visually impaired to see 20/20 equivalent in normal surroundings and when reading at a normal distance with as large a field of view, as high a resolution, and while weighing under two ounces.

Our Innovative Approach

Innovega’s principal innovation over our competition will be our ability to produce customized and personalized extended reality eyewear for the visually impaired to enable the time efficient fitting, training and adaptation to the wearable technology. The product solution architecture that we are developing will enable rapid fabrication and mass personalization of the contact lens enabled wearable display technology. The optical approach of removing the optics from the eyewear and placing them on or in the eye is fundamental to expanding the field of view while removing the bulk and weight from the eyewear.

The Innovega technology platform includes – multi-patented smart contact lenses and display eyewear configurations – methods of personalizing the eyewear size parameters – software algorithm for image capture, enhancement and presentation – user interface designed with a sensitivity and understanding of the needs of the visually impaired. The eyewear captures high resolution images while the operating system stabilizes the image, reduces latency, and presents the images on the wide and high-resolution displays in the location required for each eye of each user.

We believe that Innovega’s features and enhancements will improve the user experience over the current eyewear in use while also appearing like normal spectacle eyewear. Specifically, the Innovega system is designed to respect normal head tilt and eye positions while enabling the user to see their world at the same distances that normally sighted individuals see. The eyewear is designed by ophthalmic professionals with years of experience in fitting glasses and the user interface and software are the product of input from low vision specialists and visually impaired patients. The camera, processors, power sources, connectivity components and display technology are all available and supported by large global component manufacturers.

Our design engineers incorporated large databases of head, eye, nose and ear location and size information to develop the parameters for the display eyewear and fitting system. Our team members with previous global market leading contact lens designs and products developed the lens materials, methods of manufacturing to include the patented two-state light polarizing filter, the rotationally stabilized lens design, and the systems and methods of fitting the novel iOptik contact lens.

Generic one-size-fits-all AR and VR glasses for the visually impaired ignore the geometric diversity of human heads, human nose shapes and sizes, human eye locations, and human ear heights and locations. The result is eyewear that is far too large for those with small heads and to narrow for those with wide heads. The universal size eyewear generally sits too far in front of the face and are experienced as heavy on the nose. Several designs require a head-strap or head-band to secure the heavy eyewear to the head. To our knowledge, there is currently no commercially viable offering for customizing display eyewear in the same manner that normal spectacle eyewear is personalized. All current systems fail to solve the eyestrain caused by vergence-accommodation conflict for users with two eyes. Most systems attempt to manage the differences in the distribution of human eye separation by enlarging the usable optical port of their systems which in turn exacerbates the vergence-accommodation conflict by reducing the depth of field.

Our iOptik contact lens approach provides for a smart contact lens containing a two-state light polarizing filter and a micro-lens. The two-state light polarizing filter separates the display light from the non-display normal vision light and the micro-lens focuses the display light while the non-display light path has normal vision correction or no correction for those who do not have a prescription. The iOptik contact lens is a disposable lens and it is prescribed using the same examination that eye care practitioners use for fitting soft disposable lenses to correct astigmatism.

Our eyewear design approach includes a fitting system to determine the correct frame size, correct temple length, correct bridge size and location, the correct display position relative to the separation of the eyes, and the correct presets for the camera and display position when performing a number of different visual tasks. We engineered the frame design to produce the thinnest and lightest eyewear with the support of seasoned eyewear frame designers in concert with mechanical and electronic engineers. The novel solutions for resolving the placement of the components while respecting the ultimate goal of normal eyewear appearance are a major achievement.

Feasibility clinical studies at the Ohio State University with fully sighted and visually impaired subjects provided valuable feedback for the design of the iOptik contact lenses and display eyewear. The feedback is incorporated in design changes, software development and user interface design and development. We are in the final phases of product design and development with our first licensee who is a global leader in electronic devices for the visually impaired with a target first product launch upon and subject to receiving our FDA market clearance for the iOptik contact lens. Provided we receive FDA market clearance, the launch date is forecast for the first quarter of 2023.

Sales and Marketing

The specific sales process for each of our product applications is based on the strategy and go-to-market model of our licensees.

Visually impaired market application

The company is employing a licensing business model. The intellectual property including relevant pending and issued patents, know how, and trade secrets will be licensed to strategic partners who will distribute the contact lenses and display eyewear. In some cases, the partner may also undertake manufacturing or may use third parties for manufacturing the eyewear or contact lenses. We are in discussions with licensee candidates for the contact lenses manufacturing and distribution in the US and International markets.

The forecast launch of the contact lenses and eyewear is the first quarter of 2023. The licensee for the eyewear for the visually impaired has an existing global sales organization. The serial launch of products is dependent on regulatory approval of the contact lenses in each country. The first launch is forecast for the United States market with the first target customers including institutional providers of low vision care which incorporate an established reimbursement model. The sales effort is planned to expand to the independent low vision specialists who are often in private optometric or ophthalmology practices.

The US launch is forecast to be followed by launches in the United Kingdom and Europe, the remainder of North, Central and South America, East Asia and the rest of the world. Low vision specialists are easily identified for conventional direct sales. Professional services functions are needed to support practitioner training and successful prescribing of the system.

The contact lens manufacturing will be transferred from Innovega to one of the contact lens licensee candidates upon execution of a license agreement and transfer of the manufacturing technology. The licensee will be an existing contact lens manufacturer who has an FDA site approval for manufacturing contact lenses. The contact lens manufacturer licensee is not expected to provide a robust sales and marketing function given the pull through of sales by the eyewear distributor. The contact lens manufacturer licensee will be trained to provide the support to the eye care professional for proper fitting and case management of the iOptik contact lenses used in conjunction with the eyewear for the visually impaired.

Follow on applications

Additional applications of the Innovega technology will follow the concentrated focus on the visually impaired market.

The applications for sports training and performance, first responder – intelligence – and defense, surgical visualization and telemedicine, enterprise occupational productivity enhancement, telecommunications and anytime-anywhere information and entertainment, and gaming will proceed as the scalable cost of goods reduces for the eyewear and the contact lenses. Management plans to proceed in each application with a licensing model to allow the market leaders to add the Innovega technology to their existing product offerings and channel strength.

Contact lens and display eyewear fitting system technology

Innovega may license its technology fitting system to institutions and licensed independent eye care practitioners to enable the fitting of the iOptik contact lens and the Extended Reality eyewear. The outcomes from the fitting of the iOptik contact lenses, intraocular lenses, and Extended Reality eyewear will be integrated for constant improvement of design, operating systems and user interfaces.

Personalized Extended Reality Eyewear

The Innovega eyewear fitting technology platform intends to automate the parameter selection and presets of the camera to display system using automated digital image analysis algorithms. These algorithms auto-segment images and auto-generate eyewear parameter recommendations that are sent to the eyewear manufacturer to select from inventory the patient-specific eyewear and to preset the display preferences. Innovega is focusing on patient specific eyewear parameter selection and presets due to the clear clinical benefit from personalization.

The contact lens fitting technology may be used in each clinic to provide suggested first lens parameters by entering existing usual and customary clinical data that is captured during a contact lens evaluation by eye care professionals. Image capture of iOptik contact lenses on-eye having markings is used to refine the final contact lens prescription.

Manufacturing

The Extended Reality eyewear for the visually impaired will be manufactured and distributed by the licensee of the Innovega technology. This model substantially reduces the need and use of capital by us.

Research and Development

Research and development (R&D) initiatives that are underway include: materials research, contact lens component development, contact lens manufacturing process development, contact lens metrology; display eyewear industrial design, photonics and electronic design and engineering, and software and user interface development

R&D amounted to $843,396 and $757,830 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively In 2019, the majority of our R&D related expenses were related to manufacturing processes for the contact lenses and development of working eyewear prototypes respective to the reference designs. During 2021 and 2022, we estimate we could spend more than $3 million from the maximum proceeds from this offering to fund future R&D initiatives.

Employees

Six employees work from our lab facility at 11031 Via Frontera, Suite A, San Diego, CA 92127, and three employees report to our corporate office at 11900 NE 1st Street, Suite. 300, Bellevue, WA 98005. Additional permanent support is provided by parties who are consultants to the company.

Regulation

Medical products and devices are regulated by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in the United States and can be regulated by foreign governments for devices sold internationally. The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations issued by the FDA regulate testing, manufacturing, packaging, and marketing of medical devices. Under the current regulations and standards, we believe that our products and devices are subject to general controls, including compliance with labeling and record-keeping rules. In addition, our medical devices require pre-market clearance, which for our daily wear contact lenses, classified as non-significant risk or Class II devices, will require a 510(k) premarket notification submission.

Medical devices are also regulated for the United Kingdom and European Union markets and must comply with the specific European Directives set forth by the European Commission. The Medical Device Directives (MDD): AIMDD 90/385/EEC; MDD 93/42/EEC; IVDMDD 98/79/EC must be satisfied. Proof that our products comply with the essential requirements of these CE directives requires affixing a CE mark to them. Contact lenses are classified as Class IIb Medical Devices in this system. We plan to submit to the CE mark process after receiving US FDA market clearance and anticipate that the pre-clinical testing and clinical trials conducted for the US FDA market clearance or approvals will also serve as the clinical investigation support for the CE mark process. In addition, our licensee partner who will manufacture the lenses must satisfy the portion of the Medical Device Directives including technical documentation, a Declaration of Conformity and a quality assurance audit by a Notified Body.

Further, our licensees’ manufacturing processes and facilities are also subject to regulations, including the FDA’s QSR requirements (formerly Good Manufacturing Practices). These regulations govern the way we manufacture our products and maintain documentation for our manufacturing, testing and control activities. In addition, to the extent our licensees manufacture and sell products abroad, those products are subject to the relevant laws and regulations of those countries.

Finally, the labeling of the contact lenses, the promotional activities and marketing materials are regulated by the FDA and various state agencies. Violations of regulations promulgated by these agencies may result in administrative, civil or criminal actions against us or our licensee manufacturers by the FDA or governing state agencies.

Innovega has not yet received clearance to market its contact lenses in the United States (FDA) or internationally, and as such is not currently selling and distributing any products.

The contact lenses are currently in a first US FDA 510(k) clinical trial for market clearance of the lens material. A subsequent de novo clinical trial must be conducted for the new indication for viewing a near eye wearable display. While daily wear contact lenses are generally classified as Class II, non-significant risk devices, the FDA will make a final ruling for the contact lenses as either Class II, non-significant risk or Class III, significant risk after the de novo submission. The intraocular lenses are optically designed in prototype form and without clinical development. The intraocular lenses are expected to require a de novo regulatory path as a Class III, significant risk device. The display eyewear will be submitted to the FDA for a market clearance as a Class I device before commercialization.

Innovega has engaged a regulatory consulting group and Contract Research Organization, ForeSight Regulatory Strategies, Inc., to assist with its 510(k) premarket notification submission for our iOptik contact lens. We hope to submit to the FDA our 510(k) premarket notification submission for our lens material for standard indications in the second quarter 2022. We expect to submit to the FDA a de novo submission for our iOptik lens for viewing a near eye display within 3 months of the closing of this offering. Notably this timeline assumes that we raise at least $5,000,000 from this offering. Please see our “Risk Factors” regarding risks related to our company with the regulatory process.

Intellectual Property

Innovega currently holds 14 issued US patents and 2 registered trademarks, iOptik^® and eMacula^®. The following listing reports the US Patent and Trademark Office issued patents, published applications, and filed patents that are not yet published.

Litigation

From time to time, the company may be involved in a variety of legal matters that arise in the normal course of business. The company is not currently involved in any litigation, and its management is not aware of any pending or threatened legal actions relating to its intellectual property, conduct of its business activities, or otherwise.

See “Risk Factors” for a summary of risks our company may face in relation to litigation against our company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

As of December 31, 2020, and September 30, 2021, the company’s cash on hand was $1,506,369

and approximately $2,169,730, respectively. The company is currently not generating any revenue and requires continued new capital to continue business operations.

The company has recorded losses since inception and, as of December 31, 2020, had positive working capital, excluding the current portions of both SAFE and convertible notes which were converted to equity in May 2021, of approximately $0.6 million, and a stockholders’ deficit of $10,714,304. The company has raised capital through securities offerings. The company plans to continue to try to raise additional capital through crowdfunding offerings, equity issuances, or any other method available to the company. Absent additional capital, the company may be forced to significantly reduce expenses and could become insolvent.

Through September 30, 2021, the company’s monthly use of cash for operations was approximately $233,000. The company estimates that if it does not raise any additional funds, it could continue at the current rate of expenditures and operations through November 2022. The company estimates that if it raised the maximum amount sought in the Series A-1 Offering and without raising further capital, it could continue at this rate of monthly expenditures and operations for more than four years. From time to time, company Board of Directors and management will assess needs, market conditions, and opportunities, and may adjust its operating plan and use of funds respectively.

At June 30, 2021 the company’s cash on hand was $2,036,907. The company is not generating significant revenues and requires the continued infusion of new capital to continue business operations. The company has recorded losses since inception but has raised capital through securities offerings. As of June 30, 2021, the company had net working capital of $1,141,960 and a stockholders’ equity of $68,876. The company has historically been capitalized by private equity offerings, including sales of preferred stock, convertible and SAFE notes. The company plans to continue to raise additional capital through equity issuances, and other usual methods available to an emerging growth company. Absent additional capital, the company may be forced to significantly reduce expenses and could become insolvent.

On March 31, 2021, the company commenced an offering under Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to which it offered shares of its Series A-1 Preferred Stock (the “Series A-1 Offering”). On May 13, 2021, the company executed a rolling (first) close of its offering. Concurrent with this first closing, the Company issued 1,610,514 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock in exchange for the conversion of $5,018,698 of convertible notes, including accrued interest, and 1,123,787 shares of Series A-3 Preferred Stock in exchange for the conversion of $2,331,875 of SAFE notes.

The company received gross proceeds in May and June 2021 amounting to $1,576,227 and offering costs, which were recorded as a reduction in capital in excess of par value, totaled $303,875, resulting in net proceeds of $1,272,352. The Series A-1 Offering continues to be active and subsequent closings have occurred and the gross offering proceeds were approximately $ 5.6 million as of December 21, 2021.

The company estimates that the proceeds raised from the Series A-1 Offering can continue to fund the company’s current rate of operations through 2021 without raising additional capital. However, the company has determined that additional capital will be required for expanding the operations of the company.

Issuances of Equity, Convertible Notes, Other Indebtedness

Since inception, the company has primarily funded operations through the issuance of equity securities, convertible notes, and SAFE notes.

The company received total proceeds of $5,341,106 from issuances of Preferred Stock in the years 2017 through 2018. The company also received total proceeds of $149,089 from issuances of Common Stock from inception through December 31, 2020.

On March 31, 2021, the SEC qualified an offering of its Series A-1 Preferred Stock, (the “Series A-1 Offering”). As of the date of this Amendment, Innovega has raised $5,079,036 in gross proceeds from this offering. .The company also raised $526,000 through direct investments outside of this offering for an aggregate amount raised of $5,605,036.

The company estimates that the proceeds raised from the Series A-1 Offering can continue to fund the company’s current rate of operations beyond second quarter, 2022 without raising additional capital. However, the company has determined that additional capital raising activity will be critical for expanding the operations of the company.

The company has previously issued both convertible debt and SAFE notes. In 2019, the company issued convertible promissory notes and SAFE notes for proceeds of $2,402,337 (net of issuance costs of $78,256) and $500,000, respectively. In 2020, and as of December 31, 2020, the company issued an additional $1,831,875 SAFE notes.

The combined principal amount and the accrued interest of the convertible debt and SAFE notes were $4,812,467 and $176,868 as of December 31, 2020.

The combined principal amount and the accrued interest of these notes was $2,980,592 and $63,498 as of December 31, 2019.

The accrued interest on the convertible notes was $63,498 and $176,868 as of December 31, 2019, and December 30, 2020, respectively.

Loan costs are amortized over the loan period. The unamortized balance of the loan costs as of December 31, 2019, was $78,256. The accrued interest on the convertible notes was $63,498 and $145,606 as of December 31, 2019, and September 30, 2020, respectively.

All convertible notes have a maturity date of June 30, 2021, accrue simple interest at 5% per annum, and have a 20% conversion discount of the original issue price of new preferred stock. The valuation at time of conversion was further adjusted to the minimum of 20% discount to valuation of the new preferred stock financing, or $32,000,000. The notes, and all accrued interest, can either be converted prior to their maturity date in the event of a Qualified Equity Financing with an aggregate sales price of not less than $750,000 (excluding the aggregated amount from the convertible notes), converted at any time by a majority vote of the noteholders, or automatically converts upon the maturity date. All outstanding convertible notes and SAFE notes will automatically convert into preferred stock as a result of the initial closing of the Offering.

All convertible notes have been converted into Series A-2 Preferred Stock as a result of the initial closing of the Series A-1 Offering, which occurred on May 13, 2021 (“Initial Closing”). The valuation at time of conversion was $32,000,000. All outstanding SAFE notes were automatically converted into Series A-3 Preferred stock also as a result of the Initial Closing.

The Company had a shareholder note in the amount of $100,000 which was fully repaid in 2020, together with $19,627 of accrued interest. In 2020, the Company borrowed $100,000 from company CEO, Stephen Willey, in the form of a Promissory note, earning an interest rate of 1% per month. In March 2021, the company borrowed an additional $100,000 from company CEO, Stephen Willey, in the form of a Promissory note, earning an interest rate of 1% per month. Also in March 2021, the Company borrowed $500,000 from three investors earning an interest rate of 1% per month, of which $50,000 was repaid in September 2021 and the remaining $450,000 in borrowings are due on demand.

In 2020, the Company borrowed $112,420 from the US Small Business Administration under the Payroll Protection Program (PPP). This loan was forgiven.

The Company currently has no material commitments for capital expenditures other than a commitment of approximately $100,000 for new equipment.

The Company expects to pay $40,000 in tenant improvements for its new San Diego facility.

During 2021, Management achieved the following:

Goals and Objectives for 2022 include:

Trend Information

The company’s business prospects will be affected by the backdrop of market opportunities and industry dynamics.

In 2021, Facebook IQ forecast between 2020 and 2024, a “6x increase in global spending on Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). In an article published by VentureBeat on April 25, 2020, the author referenced the following key elements of recent analyst forecasts:

Virtual Reality (VR)

Augmented Reality (AR)

Consistent with these forecasts and recommendations that those developing wearable displays should initially pursue opportunities in vertical markets, the company elected to develop smart glasses and contact lenses for the visually impaired, including legally blind, patient community whose needs are well-documented and under-served. This is a non-enterprise application that enables the company to avoid the high level of competition that is already building in the enterprise sector. Following a success in serving the visually impaired patients, the company plans to expand to other vertical health care markets including the hearing impaired, dual sensory losses and other healthcare delivery markets.

Once it has proved its business model in one or more health care markets, the company will then investigate opportunities to license its technology for use in non-medical vertical markets such as public safety and prosumer applications. When ecosystems become available to support consumer and other mass-market applications, the Company will also assess these potential opportunities

Opportunities exist in licensing the company technology for use in larger vertical markets such as public safety and prosumer applications after proving its business model in one or more health care markets. It is expected that the progressive market development opportunity will be enhanced when ecosystems are available for broad consumer markets. Management plans to monitor opportunities to seek partners for licensing its technology for mass market applications.

In October, Facebook, Inc. was renamed Meta, Platforms, Inc. (“Meta”). “Meta” is short for metaverse, and according to a press release by Meta on October 28, 2021, which detailed Meta’s vision for the next generation of the internet or the metaverse, which will largely be accessed using display eyewear.

In the belief of management, no other information that would be required to be reported on Form 1-U is required to be reported as of the date of this Report.

The company expects to earn revenues from up to three sources:

A recent licensee invested a total of $1,000,000, by way of $500,000 under the company’s 2019 Convertible Debenture program, and $500,000 under the company’s 2019 SAFE investment program.

In 2020, the company also earned it first service-based revenues for supporting strategic partner needs. This effort began during the latter half of 2020 and the company received approximately $110,290 for providing Innovega R&D and Clinical consulting services. We expect to continue to receive profit-earning revenues for these services.

Royalties are typically paid upon the commercial sale of product, and the company could earn royalties from the sale of each pair of smart glasses, and recurring royalties on the sale if its iOptik disposable contact lenses. Management started on the path of commercial development of smart glasses and contact lenses for the target visually impaired including the legally blind market. The company and its licensees must complete product development and preparation for manufacture before these items can be sold and royalties paid. In addition, the Company must secure a US FDA market clearance to allow the sale of the contact lenses and the contact lens manufacturing and distribution license must be completed.

Relaxed Ongoing Reporting Requirements

If we become a public reporting company in the future, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an “emerging growth company” (as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, which we refer to as the JOBS Act) under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company”, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not “emerging growth companies”, including but not limited to:

If we become a public reporting company in the future, we expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although if the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time, we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” as of the following December 31.

If we do not become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act for any reason, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis under the reporting rules set forth in Regulation A for Tier 2 issuers. The ongoing reporting requirements under Regulation A are more relaxed than for “emerging growth companies” under the Exchange Act. The differences include, but are not limited to, being required to file only annual and semiannual reports, rather than annual and quarterly reports. Annual reports are due within 120 calendar days after the end of the issuer’s fiscal year, and semiannual reports are due within 90 calendar days after the end of the first six months of the issuer’s fiscal year.

In either case, we will be subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than Exchange Act rules for companies that are not “emerging growth companies”, and our shareholders could receive less information than they might expect to receive from more mature public companies.

As of December 31, 2017, there were 2,231,274 shares available for grant under the Plan.

No Distributions shall be made with respect to the common stock unless dividends on the Preferred Stock have been declared in accordance with the preferences stated herein and all declared dividends on the Preferred stock have been paid or set aside for payment to the preferred stockholders. The right to receive dividends on shares of Preferred Stock shall not be cumulative, and no right to dividends shall accrue to holders of Preferred Stock by reason of the fact that dividends on said shares are not declared or paid. Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding that has a right to receive dividends prior to or on a parity with any series of Designated Preferred Stock, payment of any dividends to the holders of Preferred Stock shall be on a pro rata, pari passu basis in proportion to the Dividend Rates for each series of Preferred Stock.

After the payment or setting aside for payment of the dividends described above, any additional dividends (other than dividends on Common Stock payable solely in Common Stock) set aside or paid in any fiscal year shall be set aside or paid among the holders of the Designated Preferred Stock (and any other series of Preferred Stock entitled to share in such additional dividends) and Common Stock then outstanding in proportion to the greatest whole number of shares of Common Stock which would be held by each such holder if all shares of Preferred Stock were converted at the then-effective Conversion Rate.

Liquidation Rights

Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock that ranks on liquidation prior to the Designated Preferred Stock, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the Designated Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the company to the holders of the Common Stock by reason of their ownership of such stock, an amount per share for each share of Designated Preferred Stock held by them equal to the greater of (i) the Liquidation Preference specified for such share of Designated Preferred Stock, plus all declared but unpaid dividends (if any) on such share of Designated Preferred Stock, or such lesser amount as may be approved by the holders of the majority of the outstanding shares of Designated Preferred Stock or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Designated Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company.

After the payment or setting aside for payment to the holders of Preferred Stock of the full amounts specified, the entire remaining assets of the company legally available for distribution shall be distributed pro rata to holders of the company and any other series of Preferred Stock entitled to continued participation in such distributions, in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by them with equal priority, with the shares of such series of Preferred Stock being treated for this purpose as if they had been converted to shares of Common Stock at the then applicable conversion rate.

Conversion

Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share at the office of the company or any transfer agent for the Preferred Stock into that number of fully-paid, nonassessable shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Original Issue Price for the relevant series by the Conversion Price for such series. (The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock of a series may be converted is hereinafter referred to as the “Conversion Rate” for each such series.)

The Original Issue Price is $1.6583 per share for the Series Seed Preferred Stock, $3.00 per share for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, $1.66829 per share for the Series A-2 Preferred Stock and $2.075 per share for the Series A-3 Preferred Stock (subject to customary adjustments including for: (i) stock splits, (ii) anti-dilution adjustments from issuing new shares of common stock (with specified exceptions) at less than the conversion price and (iii) the effects a reorganization or reclassification of its common stock as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation).

Each share of Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into fully-paid, non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the then effective Conversion Rate for such share (i) immediately prior to the closing of a firm commitment underwritten initial public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended covering the offer and sale of Common Stock, provided that aggregate gross proceeds to the company are not less than $5,000,000 , (ii) upon the receipt by the company of a written request for such conversion from the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis) or, if later, the effective date for conversion specified in such requests, or (iii) upon the prior cumulative conversion of a majority of the Preferred Stock.

Protective Provisions

The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to certain protective provisions that require the company to obtain the approval (by vote or written consent as provided by law) of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock (in addition to any other vote required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the company), any such act or transaction or transactions effected without such approval being null and void ab initio and of no force or effect:

Amend, alter or repeal any provision of our Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws (including pursuant to a merger) if such action would materially adversely alter the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the outstanding Preferred Stock;

Increase or decrease (other than for decreases resulting from conversion of the Preferred Stock) the authorized number of shares of any class of capital stock;

Authorize or create (by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of capital stock having rights, powers, or privileges set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of the company, as then in effect, that are senior to or on a parity with any series of Preferred Stock, provided, that the designation of shares of undesignated Preferred Stock into a new series of Preferred Stock having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on parity with any series of Designated Preferred Stock will not be deemed to adversely alter the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the outstanding Preferred Stock;

Redeem or repurchase any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (other than pursuant to employee or consultant agreements giving the company the right to repurchase shares upon the termination of services pursuant to the terms of the applicable agreement); or Liquidate, dissolve, or wind-up the business and affairs of the Corporation, or consent, agree or commit to do any of the forgoing; and

Amend the Section providing for the above-referenced protections.

The company has entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement with certain holders of shares of common stock (individually a the “Common Holder” and collectively the “Common Holders”), the holders of shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock, and the holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series A-3 Preferred Stock (individually, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors” and together with the Common Holders, the “Stockholders”).

The company and its existing stockholders are in the process of entering into an Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement. Purchasers of the Series A-1Preferred Stock will also enter into the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, at each annual meeting of the stockholders of the company or any meeting of the stockholders of the company at which members of the Board of Directors are to be elected by the stockholders, the stockholders who are parties to this Agreement will agree to vote their shares to elect:

two (2) Officer Designees (as defined below) as Common Directors;

one (1) Common Designee (as defined below) as a Common Director; and

one (1) Series Seed Designee (as defined below) as the Series Seed Director.

The designees to the Board described above, (each a “Designee”) are selected as follows:

The “Officer Designees” shall be Stephen Willey and Jerome Legerton for so long as Stephen Willey and Jerome Legerton remain officers, employees or consultants of the company, except that if Stephen Willey or Jerome Legerton declines or is unable to serve, their successors shall be designated by the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock held by the Common Holders.

The “Common Designee” shall be chosen by the Common Holders holding at least a majority of the shares of Common Stock held by all Common Holders, and who will initially be Shane Kim.

The “Series Seed Designee” shall be chosen by the Investors holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock subject to the approval of the other members of the Board, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and who will initially be Jeff Bradley.

Registration Rights

In the event of an equity financing pursuant to which the company sells securities in a transaction or series of related transactions (the “Equity Financing”) in which the investors in such Equity Financing (the “Future Equity Investors”) receive registration rights, each Investor will be entitled to receive registration rights no less favorable than the registration rights provided to the Future Equity Investors who own a comparable number of shares as such Investor. Such Investor will not unreasonably withhold its consent to enter into any registration rights agreement, if requested to do so by the company. Provided the rights provided for in this paragraph shall terminate on the sooner to occur of when the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended without volume restrictions.

Lock-Up Agreement

In connection with a best efforts or firm commitment underwritten public offering by the company of shares of the company’s Common Stock, pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act which results in gross aggregate cash proceeds to the company of at least $5,000,000 (the “Qualified IPO”) and upon request of the company or the underwriters managing such offering of the company’s securities, each stockholder that is a party to the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the company, however or whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions, including restrictions).

Right of First Refusal

Should any Common Holder propose to accept one or more bona fide offers (collectively, a “Purchase Offer”) from any persons to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Shares”) from such Common Holder (other than as set provided in the Stockholders’ Agreement), such Common Holder are required to send a notice (the “Purchase Notice”) to the Company and each Investor that holds at least 60,302 shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock (each, a “Major Seed Investor”) stating the terms and conditions of such Purchase Offer. At any time within fifteen (15) days after the date of the Purchase Notice (the “Company’s ROFR Period”), the company, or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Common Holder, elect to purchase any or all of the Purchase Shares proposed to be sold by the Common Holder on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Notice. If the Company declines to exercise in full its right of first refusal, then the company will notify each Major Seed Investor within five (5) days after the expiration of the Company’s ROFR Period. Each Major Seed Investor will then have the right, within fifteen (15) days after the date of the Company’s notice (the “Major Seed Investors’ ROFR Period”), to submit notice to the Company and the Common Holder of its irrevocable commitment to exercise its right of first refusal and purchase the Purchase Shares on a pro rata basis, based upon the number of Conversion Purchase Shares (as defined below) held by such Major Seed Investor relative to the aggregate number of Conversion Purchase Shares held by all Major Seed Investors.

Other than in connection with a best efforts or firm commitment underwritten public offering or an offering pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended the company pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement the company granted to (1) each Major Seed Investor, and (2) each Investor that holds shares of Series A Preferred Stock representing an aggregate Original Issue Price (as defined in the Company’s then-current certificate of incorporation) of at least $100,000 (each, a “Major Series A Investor”) (the Major Seed Investors together with the Major Series A Investors, the “Major Preferred Investors”), that qualifies as an “accredited investor” under Regulation D of the Securities Act, the right of first offer to purchase its pro rata share of New Securities (including any capital stock including common stock and/or preferred stock of the company), which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue after the date of the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement.

Termination of Stockholders’ Agreement

The Stockholders’ Agreement shall terminate upon a Qualified IPO; or the consummation of a transaction or series of related transactions deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company pursuant to the company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as may be amended.
