DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE ACTION

 


 

AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANYS 2022 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

 

General

 

On February 16, 2022, our Board of Directors unanimously approved the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), and our shareholders subsequently approved the 2022 Plan on April 13, 2022. The Board initially authorized the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2022 Plan.

 

Currently, 215,000 shares remain available for issuance under the 2022 Plan. On June 26, 2026, our Board approved an amendment to the 2022 Plan (the Plan Amendment) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 500,000 shares to 6,000,000 shares. On July 7, 2026, the Majority Shareholders approved the Plan Amendment. The Plan Amendment is provided with this Information Statement as Annex A.

 

The increase in the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the 2022 Plan will not become effective until 20 calendar days after this Information Statement is first mailed or otherwise delivered to our shareholders entitled to receive notice thereof.

 

Purpose of and Rationale for Increase

 

The 2022 Plan provides for the issuance of stock-based awards to attract and retain the services of executives and other key employees. Keeping a proportionate number of shares available for issuance under the 2022 Plan in relation to our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock provides the ability and flexibility to present compensation packages which compare favorably with those offered by other companies.

 

Summary of the 2022 Plan 

 

The 2022 Plan includes a number of features intended to protect the interests of our stockholders and further reinforce and promote alignment of interests among our employees, non-employee directors and other eligible equity award incentive recipients with the interests of our stockholders. These features include, but are not limited to:

 

Eligibility

 

Awards may be granted under the 2022 Plan to officers, employees and consultants of our Company and our subsidiaries and to our non-employee directors. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of our Company or one of our subsidiaries.

 

Administration

 

The 2022 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or in absence of a Compensation Committee, by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee, or Board of Directors, in its discretion, selects the individuals to whom awards may be granted, the time or times at which such awards are granted, and the terms of such awards. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

Number of Authorized Shares

 

A total of 500,000 shares of Common Stock were initially authorized for issuance under the 2022 Plan, which amount will increase to 6,000,000 shares 20 calendar days after this Information Statement is first mailed or otherwise delivered to our shareholders entitled to receive notice thereof.

 

Any awards then outstanding under the Company’s prior 2012 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Prior Plan”) will remain subject to and be paid under the Prior Plan and any shares then subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan that subsequently expire, terminate, or are surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of shares will automatically become available for issuance under the 2022 Plan. Shares may be granted under the 2022 Plan as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code. The shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2022 Plan will consist of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares, and shares purchased on the open market or otherwise.

 


 

If any award is canceled, terminates, expires or lapses for any reason prior to the issuance of shares or if shares are issued under the 2022 Plan and thereafter are forfeited to us, the shares subject to such awards and the forfeited shares will again be available for grant under the 2022 Plan. In addition, the following items will not count against the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for grant under the 2022 Plan:

 

 

the payment in cash of dividends or dividend equivalents under any outstanding award;

 

 

any award that is settled in cash rather than by issuance of shares of common stock; and

 

 

any awards granted in assumption of or in substitution for awards previously granted by an acquired company.

 

Shares tendered or withheld to pay the option exercise price or tax withholding for any award (including restricted stock and restricted stock units) will continue to count against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for grant under the 2022 Plan. In addition, the total number of shares covering stock-settled SARs or net-settled options will be counted against the pool of available shares, not just the net shares issued upon exercise. Any shares of Common Stock repurchased by us with cash proceeds from the exercise of options will not be added back to the pool of shares available for grant under the 2022 Plan.

 

Adjustments

 

If certain changes in the common stock occur by reason of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in stock, or other increase or decrease in the common stock without our receipt of consideration, or if there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by us, we will equitably adjust the number and kind of securities for which stock options and other stock-based awards may be made under the 2022 Plan. In addition, if there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by us, we will equitably adjust the number and kind of securities subject to any outstanding awards and the exercise price of any outstanding stock options or SARs.

 

Types of Awards

 

The 2022 Plan permits the granting of any or all of the following types of awards:

 

 

Stock Options. Stock options entitle the holder to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock at a specified price (the exercise price), subject to the terms and conditions of the stock option grant. The Compensation Committee may grant either incentive stock options, which must comply with Section 422 of the Code, or nonqualified stock options. The Compensation Committee sets exercise prices and terms, except that stock options must be granted with an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant (excluding stock options granted in connection with assuming or substituting stock options in acquisition transactions). Unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, fair market value means, as of a given date, the closing price of the Common Stock. At the time of grant, the Compensation Committee determines the terms and conditions of stock options, including the quantity, exercise price, vesting periods, term (which cannot exceed ten years) and other conditions on exercise.

 

 

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant SARs as a right in tandem with the number of shares underlying stock options granted under the 2022 Plan or as a freestanding award. Upon exercise, SARs entitle the holder to receive payment per share in stock or cash, or in a combination of stock and cash, equal to the excess of the share’s fair market value on the date of exercise over the grant price of the SAR. The grant price of a tandem SAR is equal to the exercise price of the related stock option and the grant price for a freestanding SAR is determined by the compensation committee in accordance with the procedures described above for stock options. Exercise of a SAR issued in tandem with a stock option will reduce the number of shares underlying the related stock option to the extent of the SAR exercised. The term of a freestanding SAR cannot exceed ten years, and the term of a tandem SAR cannot exceed the term of the related stock option.

 


 

 

Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Other Stock-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant awards of restricted stock, which are shares of Common Stock subject to specified restrictions, and restricted stock units, which represent the right to receive shares of the Common Stock in the future. These awards may be made subject to repurchase, forfeiture or vesting restrictions at the Compensation Committee’s discretion. The restrictions may be based on continuous service with the Company or the attainment of specified performance goals, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Stock units may be paid in stock or cash or a combination of stock and cash, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may also grant other types of equity or equity-based awards subject to the terms of the 2022 Plan and any other terms and conditions determined by the Compensation Committee.

 

 

Performance Awards. The Compensation Committee may condition the grant, exercise, vesting, or settlement of any award on such performance conditions as it may specify. We refer to these awards as “performance awards.” The Compensation Committee may select such business criteria or other performance measures as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions.

 

Minimum Vesting Requirements

 

No equity-based awards granted under the 2022 Plan shall vest earlier than six months from the date the award is granted, excluding, for this purpose, any (i) substitute awards, and (ii) shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash incentive compensation under any applicable plan or program of the Company. The foregoing restriction does not apply to the Compensation Committee’s discretion to provide for accelerated exercisability or vesting of any award in cases of death or disability.

 

No Repricing

 

Without stockholder approval, the Compensation Committee is not authorized to:

 

 

lower the exercise or grant price of a stock option or SAR after it is granted, except in connection with certain adjustments to our corporate or capital structure permitted by the 2022 Plan, such as stock splits;

 

 

take any other action that is treated as a repricing under generally accepted accounting principles; or

 

 

cancel a stock option or SAR at a time when its exercise or grant price exceeds the fair market value of the underlying stock, in exchange for cash, another stock option or SAR, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other equity award, unless the cancellation and exchange occur in connection with a change in capitalization or other similar change.

 

Claw Back

 

All cash and equity awards granted under the 2022 Plan will be subject to claw back, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, reduction, or other similar action in accordance with the terms of any Company claw back or similar policy or any applicable law related to such actions, as may be in effect from time to time.

 

Transferability

 

Awards are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, except that in certain instances transfers may be made to or for the benefit of designated family members of the participant for no value.

 

Change in Control

 

In the event of a change in control of the Company, and the grantee’s employment with the Company is involuntarily terminated within six months of the date of consummation of such change in control (an “Involuntary Termination”), the Compensation Committee may accelerate the time period relating to the exercise of any award.  In addition, the Compensation Committee may take other action, including (a) providing for the purchase of any award for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise of such award had the award been currently exercisable, (b) adjusting the terms of the award in a manner determined by the compensation committee to reflect the change in control, or (c) causing an award to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by another entity with appropriate adjustments to be made regarding the number and kind of shares and exercise prices of the award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a change in control of the Company, which change in control results in the Company ceasing to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, or such successor corporation is not a reporting company under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate the time period relating to the exercise or vesting of the award notwithstanding the fact that an Involuntary Termination has not occurred. “Change in control” is defined under the 2022 Plan and requires consummation of the applicable transaction.

 


 

Term, Termination and Amendment of the 2022 Plan

 

Unless earlier terminated by the Board, the 2022 Plan will terminate, and no further awards may be granted, ten years after the date on which it is approved by stockholders. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the 2022 Plan at any time, except that, if required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment. The amendment, suspension or termination of the 2022 Plan or the amendment of an outstanding award generally may not, without a participant’s consent, materially impair the participant’s rights under an outstanding award.

 

New Plan Benefits

 

Participation in the 2022 Plan is entirely within the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Because we cannot predict the rate at which the Compensation Committee will grant equity incentives or the terms of such grants under the 2022 Plan, it is not possible to determine the number of shares that will be purchased or the value of benefits that may be obtained by executive officers and other employees under the 2022 Plan in the future.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires our officers, directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Officers, directors, and greater-than-ten-percent stockholders are also required by the SEC to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file.

 

Based solely upon a review of these forms that were furnished to us, we believe that all reports required to be filed by these individuals and persons under Section 16(a) were filed during Fiscal 2025 and that such filings were timely.

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

We have established a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) that applies to our officers, directors and employees. This Code contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics and is intended to qualify as a “code of ethics” within the meaning of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. A copy of our Code is available online at www.trackgrp.com. Any amendments to or waivers from a provision of our Code that apply to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or persons performing similar functions and that relates to any element of the Code will be made available to the public at the aforementioned website.

 

Board Leadership Structure

 

In addition to the CEO’s leadership, the Board maintains effective independent oversight through a number of governance practices, including, open and direct communication with management, input on meeting agendas, and regular executive sessions. 

 

Board Role in Risk Assessment

 

Management, in consultation with outside professionals, as applicable, identifies risks associated with the Company’s operations, strategies and financial statements. Risk assessment is also performed through periodic reports received by the Board from management, counsel and the Company’s independent registered public accountants relating to risk assessment and management. Our Board meets privately in executive sessions with representatives of the Company’s independent registered public accountants. The Board also provides risk oversight through its periodic reviews of the financial and operational performance of the Company.

 


 

Director Nominations

 

The Board nominates directors for election at the annual meetings of stockholders held and appoints new directors to fill vacancies when they arise, and has the responsibility to identify, evaluate and recruit qualified candidates to the Board for such nomination or appointment.

 

The Board identifies director nominees by first considering those current members of the Board who are willing to continue service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue service are considered for re-nomination, balancing the value of continuity of service by existing members of the Board with that of obtaining a new perspective. Nominees for director are selected by a majority of the members of the Board. Although the Company does not have a formal diversity policy, in considering the suitability of director nominees, the Board considers such factors as it deems appropriate to develop a Board that is diverse in nature and comprised of experienced and seasoned advisors. Factors considered by the Board include judgment, knowledge, skill, diversity, integrity, experience with businesses and other organizations of comparable size, including experience in the software and/or technology industries, software, intellectual property, business, finance, administration or public service, the relevance of a candidate’s experience to our needs and experience of other Board members, experience with accounting rules and practices, the desire to balance the considerable benefit of continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new members, and the extent to which a candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any committees of the Board.

 

A stockholder who wishes to suggest a prospective nominee for the Board may notify the Secretary of the Company in writing with any supporting material the stockholder considers appropriate. Nominees suggested by stockholders are considered in the same way as nominees suggested from other sources. 

 

In addition, the Company’s Bylaws contain provisions that address the process by which a stockholder may nominate an individual to stand for election to the Board at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. In order to nominate a candidate for director, a stockholder must give timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Company and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws.

Stockholder Communications

The Secretary will review any communication received from a stockholder, and all material and appropriate communications from stockholders will be forwarded to the appropriate director or directors or committee of the Board based on the subject matter.

 

Board Meetings

 

Directors are generally elected for a term of one year or more until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected or appointed and duly qualified. Vacancies on the Board which are created by the retirement, resignation or removal of a director, may be filled by the vote of the remaining members of the Board, with such new director serving the remainder of the term or until his/her successor is elected and qualified.

 

The Board is elected by and is accountable to our stockholders. The Board establishes policy and provides strategic direction, oversight, and control. The Board met 9 times during the year ended September 30, 2025 and incumbent directors attended 100% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board.

 

Board Committees and Charters

 

Effective May 29, 2026, the Board reconstituted the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Governance Committee, and formed the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee.

 


 

Audit Committee

 

Effective May 29, 2026, we have a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The primary duties of the Audit Committee are to oversee (i) management’s conduct related to our financial reporting process, including reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company, and reviewing our systems of internal accounting and financial controls, (ii) our independent auditors’ qualifications and independence and the audit and non-audit services provided to the Company, and (iii) the engagement and performance of our independent auditors. The Audit Committee assisted the Board in providing oversight of our financial and related activities, including capital market transactions. The Audit Committee has a charter, a copy of which is available on our website at www.trackgrp.com.

 

Currently, Kyle Kidd serves as the Audit Committee Chair. The Audit Committee is comprised of three members, two of which would not be considered independent under the OTC Rules and all members are financially literate. In accordance with Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Board designated Kyle Kidd as the Audit Committee’s “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the applicable regulations promulgated by the SEC.

 

In December 2025, our then Board reviewed and discussed the matters required by United States auditing standards required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 (“Fiscal 2025”) with management and our independent registered public accounting firm. Our Board at that time received the written disclosures and the letter from our independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable PCAOB standards, and our Board discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm's independence. 

 

Compensation Committee

 

Effective May 29, 2026, the Compensation Committee was reconstituted. The Compensation Committee has the responsibility for developing and maintaining an executive compensation policy that creates a direct relationship between pay levels and corporate performance and returns to stockholders. The Compensation Committee monitors the results of such policy to assure that the compensation payable to our executive officers provides overall competitive pay levels, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value, rewards superior performance, and is justified by the returns available to stockholders. The Compensation Committee has periodically retained outside benefit consultants to assess compensation policies and adjust as recommended.

 

Additionally, the Compensation Committee administers compensation plans in a manner consistent with the terms of such plans (including, as applicable, the granting of stock options, restricted stock, stock units and other awards, the review of performance goals established before the start of the relevant plan year, and the determination of performance compared to the goals at the end of the plan year). None of our executive officers served as a director or member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board.

 

Nominating and Governance Committee

 

Effective May 29, 2026, the Nominating and Governance Committee was reconstituted. The Nominating and Governance Committee selects individuals to stand for election as members of the Board and does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our stockholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee has the responsibility for identifying and recommending candidates to fill vacant and newly created Board positions, setting corporate governance guidelines regarding director qualifications and responsibilities, and planning for senior management succession.

 

Currently, the Nominating and Governance Committee is required to review the qualifications and backgrounds of all directors and nominees (without regard to whether a nominee has been recommended by stockholders), as well as the overall composition of the Board, and recommend director candidates to be nominated for election at the annual meeting of stockholders, or, in the case of a vacancy on the Board, elect a new director to fill such vacancy. If stockholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our Board, they may do so by communicating directly with our Secretary at the address specified on the cover of this information statement. There has not been any change to the procedures that our stockholders may recommend nominees to our Board.

 


 

Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee

 

Effective May 29, 2026, the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee was formed. The Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee is an ad hoc committee of the Board formed to evaluate and make reports and recommendations on strategic options, sources and uses of capital, capital structure and cash management. In furtherance of its purpose, the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee shall review, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board regarding matters including, but not limited to, business, strategy and operations of the Company, including identifying potential operational improvements and strategic opportunities and alternatives that may enhance the Company’s long-term value.

 

Independent Directors

 

The Board has determined that Mr. Kyle Kidd is an independent director of the Company as defined by the rules and regulations of the OTC Markets and the independence standards established by the OTC Markets and the SEC. In addition, the Board has determined that of its current directors, Mr. Kidd satisfies the definition of an “audit committee financial expert” under SEC rules and regulations. These designations do not impose any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than those generally imposed as members of the Board, and the designation as an audit committee financial expert does not affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Board. 

 

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

As permitted by Delaware law, the Company will indemnify its directors and officers against expenses and liabilities they incur to defend, settle, or satisfy any civil or criminal action brought against them on account of their being or having been Company directors or officers unless, in any such action, they are adjudged to have acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Compensation Risks Assessment

 

As required by rules adopted by the SEC, management has assessed our compensation policies and practices with respect to all employees to determine whether risks arising from those policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. In doing so, management considered various features and elements of the compensation policies and practices that discourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking. As a result of the assessment, we have determined that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have material adverse effects.


 

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

 

The following table presents certain information regarding compensation paid to the Company’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and other Named Executive Officers (“Other NEOs” or “Non-PEOs”), and certain measures of financial performance, for the two years ended September 30, 2025. The amounts shown below are calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The Compensation Committee believes that 2025 compensation decisions for the PEO and Non- PEOs are reflective of the Company’s overall operating, strategic, financial and stock price performance and thus aligned with stockholders.

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table

 

We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” ​(as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.

 

PEO

 

From Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2025, compensation actually paid to the PEO increased by $118,202 or 20%. Over the same period, the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) increased by $34, from $37 per share to $71 per share. Key factors that drove the increase in pay during this period were primarily due to an upward adjustment in base salary and receipt of bonus compensation for achieving or exceeding defined annual corporate goals.

 

Other NEOs         

 

From Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2025, average compensation paid to the other NEOs increased by $43,190 or 13%. Over the same period, the Company’s TSR increased by $34. Key factors that drove the increase in pay during this period were primarily due to upward adjustments in base salary and receipt of bonus compensation for achieving or exceeding defined annual corporate goals.

 

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income

 

Our Company has not historically looked to net income as a performance measure for our executive compensation program. In Fiscal 2025, our net income was up 39%, or $1,197,661 from Fiscal 2024, and the compensation actually paid for our PEO and non-PEO NEOs increased between Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2025.

 

Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative TSR 

 

Historically we have not used financial performance measures such as TSR to align with compensation actually paid to our NEO’s.
