additional derivative products from 2012 through 2016. We also intend to produce and sell other digital video products in the
future. These products incorporate our standards-based digital compression capability that allows the recording of significant
time periods on a chip and circuit board which can be designed into small forms and stored.
We
are registering the shares being offered under this prospectus in connection with the Private Placement in which we issued the
Warrants to the selling stockholders described below under “Description of Securities —
Private Placement of Warrants.
”
We entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) in connection with the Private
Placement in which we offered and sold to the selling stockholders the Warrants exercisable to purchase up to 800,000 shares of
our common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment as described below
under “Description of Securities—

RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider and read carefully all the risks and uncertainties
described below, together with all the other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before deciding
to invest in our common stock. If any of the following risks, or any risk described elsewhere in this prospectus or in the documents
incorporated by reference herein, occurs, our business, business prospects, financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows could be materially adversely affected. In any such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could
lose all or part of your investment. The risks described below and in the documents incorporated by reference herein are not the
only ones facing our company. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely
affect us. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements, estimates and projections that involve risks and uncertainties.
Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements because of specific factors,
including the risks described below and in the documents incorporated by reference herein.
You
should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business and us. The factors listed below represent certain
important factors that we believe could cause our business results to differ. These factors are not intended to represent a complete
list of the general or specific risks that may affect us. It should be recognized that other risks may be significant, presently
or in the future, and the risks set forth below may affect us to a greater extent than indicated. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. You should also
consider the other information included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and subsequent
quarterly reports filed with the SEC.
We
incurred losses in recent years.
We
have had net losses for several years and had an accumulated deficit of $46,657,342 at December 31, 2016, which includes our net
losses of $12,710,688 and $12,037,892 for 2016 and 2015, respectively. We have implemented several initiatives intended to improve
our revenues and reduce our operating costs with a goal of restoring profitability. If we are unsuccessful in this regard, it
will have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.
Our
credit facilities
We
have no revolving credit facility to fund our operating needs should it become necessary. It will be difficult to obtain an institutional
line of credit facility given our recent operating losses and the current banking environment, which may adversely affect our
ability to finance our business, grow or be profitable. Further, even if we could obtain a new credit facility, in all likelihood
would may not be on terms favorable to us.
If
we are unable to manage our current business activities, our prospects may be limited and our future profitability may be adversely
affected.
We
experienced a decline in our operating results from 2009 to 2016. Our revenues have been unpredictable, which poses significant
burdens on us to be proactive in managing production, personnel levels and related costs. We will need to improve our revenues,
operations, financial and other systems to manage our business effectively, and any failure to do so may lead to inefficiencies
and redundancies which reduce our prospects to return to profitability.
There
are risks related to dealing with domestic governmental entities as customers.
One
of the principal target markets for our products is the law enforcement community. In this market, the sale of products will be
subject to budget constraints of governmental agencies purchasing these products, which could result in a significant reduction
in our anticipated revenues. Such governmental agencies have experienced budgetary pressures because of the recent recession and
its impact on local sales, property and income taxes that provide funding for purchasing our products. These agencies also may
experience political pressure that dictates the way they spend money. As a result, even if an agency wants to acquire our products,
it may be unable to purchase them due to budgetary or political constraints. We cannot assure investors that such governmental
agencies will have the necessary funds to purchase our products even though they may want to do so. Further, even if such agencies
have the necessary funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision making policies
and procedures.
There
are risks related to dealing with foreign governmental entities as customers.
We
target the law enforcement community in foreign countries for the sale of many of our products. While foreign countries vary,
generally the sale of our products will be subject to political and budgetary constraints of foreign governments and agencies
purchasing these products, which could result in a significant reduction in our anticipated revenues. Many foreign governments
are experiencing budgetary pressures because of the recent global recession and its impact on taxes and tariffs that in many cases
provide funding for purchasing our products. Law enforcement agencies within these countries also may experience political pressure
that dictates the way they spend money. As a result, even if a foreign country or its law enforcement agencies want to acquire
our products, it may be unable to purchase them due to budgetary or political constraints. We cannot assure investors that such
governmental agencies will have the necessary funds to purchase our products even though they may want to do so. Further, even
if such agencies have the necessary funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision
making policies and procedures.
International
law enforcement and other agencies that may consider using our products must analyze a wide range of issues before committing
to purchase products like ours, including training costs, product reliability and budgetary constraints. The length of our sales
cycle may range from a few months to a year or more. We may incur substantial selling costs and expend significant effort in connection
with the evaluation of our products by potential customers before they place an order. Initial orders by foreign governments and
agencies typically are for a small number of units that are used to evaluate the products. If these potential customers do not
purchase our products, we will have expended significant resources and receive no revenue in return. In addition, we may be selected
as the vendor of choice by these foreign customers but never receive the funding necessary to purchase our product due to political
or economic reasons.
We
are marketing our DVM-250, DVM-250 Plus event recorder and FirstVu HD products to commercial customers, which is a relatively
new sales channel for us and we may experience problems in gaining acceptance.
The
principal target commercial market for our event recorder products is commercial fleet operators, such as taxi cabs, limousine
services, transit buses, ambulance services and a variety of delivery services. In addition, we are marketing our First HD to
commercial customers. These are relatively new sales channels for us and we may experience difficulty gaining acceptance of our
other products by the targeted customers. Our sales of such products will be subject to budget constraints of both the large and
small prospective customers, which could result in a significant reduction in our anticipated revenues. Certain of such companies
have experienced budgetary and financial pressures because of the recent recession and slow recovery and their impact on their
revenues, all of which may negatively impact their ability to purchase our products. As a result, even if prospective customers
want to acquire our products, they may be unable to do so because of such factors. Further, even if such companies have the necessary
funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal decision making policies and procedures.
We
are operating in a developing market and there is uncertainty as to market acceptance of our technology and products.
The
markets for our new and enhanced products and technology are developing and rapidly evolving. They are characterized by an increasing
number of market entrants who have developed or are developing a wide variety of products and technologies, a number of which
offer certain of the features that our products offer. Because of these factors, demand and market acceptance for new products
are subject to a high level of uncertainty. There can be no assurance that our technology and products will become widely accepted.
It is also difficult to predict with any assurance the future growth rate, if any, and size of the market. If a substantial market
fails to develop, develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors or if our products do not achieve or
continue to achieve market acceptance, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely
affected.
Our
technology may also be marketed and licensed to device manufacturers for inclusion in the products and equipment they market and
sell as an embedded solution. As with other new products and technologies designed to enhance or replace existing products or
technologies or change product designs, these potential partners may be reluctant to integrate our digital video recording technology
into their systems unless the technology and products are proven to be both reliable and available at a competitive price. Even
assuming product acceptance, our potential partners may be required to redesign their systems to effectively use our digital video
recording technology. The time and costs necessary for such redesign could delay or prevent market acceptance of our technology
and products. A lack of, or delay in, market acceptance of our digital video recording technology and products would adversely
affect our operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to market our technology and products successfully or that
any of our technology or products will be accepted in the marketplace.
We
expend significant resources in anticipation of a sale due to our lengthy sales cycle and may receive no revenue in return.
Generally,
law enforcement and other agencies and commercial fleet and mass transit operators that may consider using our products must analyze
a wide range of issues before committing to purchase products like ours, including training costs, product reliability and budgetary
constraints. The length of our sales cycle may range from several months to a year or more. We may incur substantial selling costs
and expend significant effort in connection with the evaluation of our products by potential customers before they place an order.
Initial orders by agencies typically are for a small number of units that are used to evaluate the products. If these potential
customers do not purchase our products, we will have expended significant resources and have received no revenue in return.
Our
market is characterized by new products and rapid technological change.
The
market for our products is characterized by rapidly changing technology and frequent new product introductions. Our future success
will depend in part on our ability to enhance our existing technologies and products and to introduce new products and technologies
to meet changing customer requirements. We are currently devoting, and intend to continue to devote, significant resources toward
the development of new digital video recording technology and products both as stand-alone products and embedded solutions in
third party products and systems. There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete the development of these technologies
and related products in a timely fashion or that our current or future products will satisfy the needs of the digital video recording
market. There can also be no assurance that digital video recording products and technologies developed by others will not adversely
affect our competitive position or render our products or technologies non-competitive or obsolete.
We
substantially depend on sales from our in-car video products and body-worn cameras and if these products become obsolete or not
widely accepted, our growth prospects will be diminished.
We
derived our revenues in 2016 predominantly from sales of our in-car video systems, including the DVM-800, our largest selling
product, and the FirstVU HD body-worn camera, our second largest selling product. We expect to continue to depend on sales of
these products during 2017. However, we have introduced a number of other new products, including the VuLink and FleetVu, and
intend to introduce other new products with a view to diversifying our revenue sources in the future. A decrease in the prices
of, or the demand for our in-car video products, or the failure to achieve broad market acceptance of our new product offerings,
would significantly harm our growth prospects, operating results and financial condition.
We
substantially depend on our research and development activities to design new products and upgrades to existing products and if
these products are not widely accepted, or we encounter difficulties and delays in launching these new products, our growth prospects
will be diminished.
We
have a number of active research and development projects underway that are intended to launch new products or upgrades to existing
products. We may incur substantial costs and/or delays in completion of these activities that may not result in viable products
or may not be received well by our potential customers. We incurred $3,186,137 and $2,980,807 in research and development expenses
during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which represent a substantial expense in relation to our total
revenues and net losses. If we are unsuccessful in bringing these products from the engineering prototype phase to commercial
production, we could incur additional expenses (in addition to those already spent) without receiving revenues from the new products.
Also, these new products may fail to achieve broad market acceptance and may not generate revenue to cover expenses incurred to
design, develop, produce and market the new product offerings. Substantial delays in the launch of one or more products could
negatively impact our revenues and increase our costs, which could significantly harm our growth prospects, operating results
and financial condition.
If
we are unable to compete in our market, you may lose all or part of your investment.
The
law enforcement and security surveillance markets are extremely competitive. Competitive factors in these industries include ease
of use, quality, portability, versatility, reliability, accuracy and cost. There are direct companies with competitive technology
and products in the law enforcement and surveillance markets for all our products and those we have in development. Many of these
competitors have significant advantages over us, including greater financial, technical, marketing and manufacturing resources,
more extensive distribution channels, larger customer bases and faster response times to adapt new or emerging technologies and
changes in customer requirements. Our primary competitors include L-3 Mobile-Vision, Inc., Coban Technologies, Inc., Watchguard,
Kustom Signals, Panasonic System Communications Company, International Police Technologies, Inc. and a number of other competitors
who sell or may in the future sell in-car video systems to law enforcement agencies. Our primary competitors in the body-worn
camera market include TASER International, Inc. (“Taser”), Reveal Media and VieVU, Inc. We face similar and intense
competitive factors for our event recorders in the mass transit markets as we do in the law enforcement and security surveillance
markets. We will also compete with any company making surveillance devices for commercial use. There are direct competitors for
our DVM-250 Plus “event recorders,” which several may have greater financial, technical marketing, and manufacturing
resources than we do. Our primary competitors in the commercial fleet sector include Lytx, Inc. (previously DriveCam, Inc.) and
SmartDrive Systems.
There
can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in these markets. Further, there can be no assurance that new
and existing companies will not enter the law enforcement and security surveillance markets in the future.
Although
we believe that our products will be distinguishable from those of our competitors based on their technological features and functionality
at an attractive value proposition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to penetrate any of our anticipated competitors’
portions of the market. Many of our anticipated competitors may have existing relationships with equipment or device manufacturers
that may impede our ability to market our technology to those potential customers and build market share. There can be no assurance
that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressures will not have
a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If we are not successful in competing against
our current and future competitors, you could lose your entire investment. See “Description of Business - Competition.”
Defects
in our products could impair our ability to sell our products or could result in litigation and other significant costs.
Any
significant defects in our products may result in, among other things, delay in time-to-market, loss of market acceptance and
sales of our products, diversion of development resources, and injury to our reputation, or increased warranty costs. Because
our products are technologically complex, they may contain defects that cannot be detected prior to shipment. These defects could
harm our reputation and impair our ability to sell our products. The costs we may incur in correcting any product defects may
be substantial and could decrease our profit margins. In 2016 and 2015 we had certain product quality issues with the FirstVU
HD, which adversely affected our revenues and operating results.
In
addition, errors, defects or other performance problems could result in financial or other damages to our customers, which could
result in litigation. Product liability litigation, even if we prevail, would be time consuming and costly to defend. Our product
liability insurance may not be adequate to cover claims. Our product liability insurance coverage per occurrence is $1,000,000,
with a $2,000,000 aggregate for our general business liability coverage and an additional $1,000,000 per occurrence. Our excess
or umbrella liability coverage per occurrence and in aggregate is $5,000,000.
Product
defects can be caused by design errors, programming bugs, or defects in component parts or raw materials. This is common to every
product manufactured which is based on modern electronic and computer technology. Because of the extreme complexity of digital
in-car video systems, one of the key concerns is operating software robustness. Some of the software modules are provided to us
by outside vendors under license agreements, while other portions are developed by our own software engineers. As with any software-dependent
product, “bugs” can occur, even with rigorous testing before release of the product. The software included in our
digital video rear view mirror products is designed to be “field upgradeable” so that changes or fixes can be made
by the end user by downloading new software through the internet. We intend to incorporate this technology into any future products
as well, providing a quick resolution to potential software issues that may arise over time.
As
with all electronic devices, hardware issues can arise from many sources. The component electronic parts we utilize come from
many sources around the world. We attempt to mitigate the possibility of shipping defective products by fully testing sub-assemblies
and thoroughly testing assembled units before they are shipped out to our customers. Because of the nature and complexity of some
of the electronic components used, such as microprocessor chips, memory systems, and zoom video camera modules, it is not technically
or financially realistic to attempt to test every single aspect of every single component and their potential interactions. By
using components from reputable and reliable sources, and by using professional engineering, assembly, and testing methods, we
seek to limit the possibility of defects slipping through. In addition to internal testing, we now have thousands of units in
the hands of law enforcement departments and in use every day. Over the past years of field use we have addressed a number of
subtle issues and made refinements requested by the end-user.
We
are dependent on key personnel.
Our
success will be largely dependent upon the efforts of our executive officers, Stanton E. Ross and Thomas J. Heckman. We do not
have employment agreements with Messrs. Ross or Heckman. The loss of the services of these individuals could have a material adverse
effect on our business and prospects. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such individuals
in the future. We have not obtained key-man life insurance policies on these individuals. We are also dependent to a substantial
degree on our technical, research and development staff. Our success will be dependent upon our ability to hire and retain additional
qualified technical, research, management, marketing and financial personnel. We will compete with other companies with greater
financial and other resources for such personnel. Although we have not had trouble in attracting qualified personnel to date,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our present personnel or acquire additional qualified personnel as and
when needed.
We
are dependent on manufacturers and suppliers.
We
purchase, and intend to continue to purchase, substantially all the components for our products and some entire products, from
a limited number of manufacturers and suppliers, most of whom are located outside the United States. Our internal process is principally
to assemble the various components and subassemblies manufactured by our suppliers and test the assembled product prior to shipping
to our customers. We do not intend to directly manufacture any of the equipment or parts to be used in our products. Our reliance
upon outside manufacturers and suppliers, including foreign suppliers, is expected to continue, increase in scope and involves
several risks, including limited control over the availability of components, and products themselves and related delivery schedules,
pricing and product quality. We may experience delays, additional expenses and lost sales if we are required to locate and qualify
alternative manufacturers and suppliers.
A
few of the semiconductor chip components for our products are produced by a very small number of specialized manufacturers. Currently,
we purchase one essential semiconductor chip from a single manufacturer. While we believe that there are alternative sources of
supply, if, for any reason, we are precluded from obtaining such a semiconductor chip from this manufacturer, we may experience
long delays in product delivery due to the difficulty and complexity involved in producing the required component and we may also
be required to pay higher costs for our components.
While
we do the final assembly, testing, packaging, and shipment of certain of our products in-house, a number of our component parts
are manufactured by subcontractors. These subcontractors include: raw circuit board manufacturers, circuit board assembly houses,
injection plastic molders, metal parts fabricators, and other custom component providers. While we are dependent upon these subcontractors
to the extent that they are producing custom subassemblies and components necessary for manufacturing our products, we still own
the designs and intellectual property involved. This means that the failure of any one contractor to perform may cause delays
in production. However, we can mitigate potential interruptions by maintaining “buffer stocks” of critical parts and
subassemblies and by using multiple sources for critical components. We also can move our subcontracting to alternate providers.
Being forced to use a different subcontractor could cause production interruptions ranging from negligible, such as a few weeks,
to very costly, such as four to six months. Further, the failure of a foreign manufacturer to deliver products to us timely, in
sufficient quantities and with the requisite quality would have a material adverse impact on our business, operations and financial
condition.
The
only component group that would require a complete redesign of our digital video electronics package is the Texas Instruments
chips. While there are competitive products available, each chip has unique characteristics that would require extensive tailoring
of product designs to use it. The Texas Instrument chips are the heart of our video processing system. If Texas Instruments became
unwilling or unable to provide us with these chips, we would be forced to redesign our digital video encoder and decoder systems.
Such a complete redesign could take substantial time (i.e. over six months) to complete. We attempt to mitigate the potential
for interruption by maintaining continuous stocks of these chips to support several months’ worth of production. In addition,
we regularly check on the end-of-life status of these parts to make sure that we will know well in advance of any decisions by
Texas Instruments to discontinue these parts. There are other semiconductors that are integral to our product design and which
could cause delays if discontinued, but not to the same scale as the Texas Instrument chips.
We
are uncertain of our ability to protect technology through patents.
Our
ability to compete effectively will depend on our success in protecting our proprietary technology, both in the United States
and abroad. We have filed for patent protection in the United States and certain other countries to cover certain design aspects
of our products. We license the critical technology on which our products are based from Sasken-Ingenient, Inc., and Lead Technologies
pursuant to license agreements. However, the technology licensed from these parties is critical because it is the basis of our
current product design. We may choose to use other video encoding and decoding technology in future products, thus lessening our
dependence on our licenses with these companies.
Some
of these patent applications are still under review by the U.S. Patent Office and, therefore, we have not yet been issued all
the patents that we applied for in the United States. No assurance can be given that any patents relating to our existing technology
will be issued from the United States or any foreign patent offices, that we will receive any patents in the future based on our
continued development of our technology, or that our patent protection within and/or outside of the United States will be sufficient
to deter others, legally or otherwise, from developing or marketing competitive products utilizing our technologies.
If
our patents were to be denied as filed, we would seek to obtain different patents for other parts of our technology. If our main
patent, which relates to the placement of the in-car video system in a rear-view mirror, is denied, it could potentially allow
our competitors to build very similar devices. However, we believe that very few of our competitors would be capable of this because
of the level of technical sophistication and level of miniaturization required. Even if we obtain patents, there can be no assurance
that they will be enforceable to prevent others from developing and marketing competitive products or methods. If we bring an
infringement action relating to any future patents, it may require the diversion of substantial funds from our operations and
may require management to expend efforts that might otherwise be devoted to our operations. Furthermore, there can be no assurance
that we will be successful in enforcing our patent rights.
Further,
if any patents are issued there can be no assurance that patent infringement claims in the United States or in other countries
will not be asserted against us by a competitor or others, or if asserted, that we will be successful in defending against such
claims. If one of our products is adjudged to infringe patents of others with the likely consequence of a damage award, we may
be enjoined from using and selling such product or be required to obtain a royalty-bearing license, if available on acceptable
terms. Alternatively, if a license is not offered, we might be required, if possible, to redesign those aspects of the product
held to infringe to avoid infringement liability. Any redesign efforts we undertake might be expensive, could delay the introduction
or the re-introduction of our products into certain markets, or may be so significant as to be impractical.
We
are involved in litigation relating to our intellectual property.
We
are subject to various legal proceedings arising from normal business operations. Although there can be no assurances, based on
the information currently available, management believes that it is probable that the ultimate outcome of each of the actions
will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. However, an adverse outcome in certain of the
actions could have a material adverse effect on our financial results in the period in which it is recorded.
On
October 25, 2013, we filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas (2:13-cv-02550-SAC) to eliminate
threats by a competitor, Utility Associates, Inc. (“Utility”), of alleged patent infringement regarding U.S. Patent
No. 6,831,556 (the “ ‘556 Patent”). Specifically, the lawsuit seeks a declaration that our mobile video surveillance
systems do not infringe any claim of the ‘556 Patent. We became aware that Utility had mailed letters to current and prospective
purchasers of our mobile video surveillance systems threatening that the use of such systems purchased from third parties not
licensed to the ‘556 Patent would create liability for them for patent infringement. We rejected Utility’s assertion
and are vigorously defending the right of end-users to purchase such systems from providers other than Utility. The United States
District Court for the District of Kansas dismissed the lawsuit because it decided that Kansas was not the proper jurisdictional
forum for the dispute. The District Court’s decision was not a ruling on the merits of the case. We appealed the decision
and the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court’s previous decision.
In
addition, we began proceedings to invalidate the ‘556 Patent through a request for
inter partes review
of the ‘556
patent at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). On July 27, 2015, the USPTO invalidated key claims
in Utility’s ‘556 Patent. The Final Decision from the USPTO significantly curtails Utility’s ability to threaten
law enforcement agencies, municipalities, and others with infringement of the ‘556 Patent. Utility appealed this decision
to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit denied
Utility’s appeal and therefore confirmed the ruling of the USPTO. This denial of Utility’s appeal finalized the USPTO’s
ruling in our favor and the matter is now concluded as it relates to the USPTO.
On
June 6, 2014, we filed an Unfair Competition lawsuit against Utility in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas.
In the lawsuit, we contend that Utility has defamed us and illegally interfered with our contracts, customer relationships and
business expectancies by falsely asserting to our customers and others that our products violate the ‘556 Patent, of which
Utility claims to be the holder.
The
suit also includes claims against Utility for tortious interference with contract and violation of the Kansas Uniform Trade Secrets
Act (KUSTA), arising out of Utility’s employment of our employees, in violation of that employees’ Non-Competition
and Confidentiality agreements with us. In addition to damages, we seek temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief,
prohibiting Utility from, among other things, continuing to threaten or otherwise interfere with our customers. On March 4, 2015,
an initial hearing was held upon our request for injunctive relief.
Based upon facts
revealed at the March 4, 2015 hearing, on March 16, 2015, we sought leave to amend our Complaint in the Kansas suit to assert
additional claims against Utility. Those new claims include claims of actual or attempted monopolization, in violation of
§ 2 of the Sherman Act, claims arising under a new Georgia statute that prohibits threats of patent infringement in “bad
faith,” and additional claims of unfair competition/false advertising in violation of § 63(a) of the Lanham Act. As
these statutes expressly provide, we will seek treble damages, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees as well as injunctive
relief. The Court concluded its hearing on April 22, 2015, and allowed us leave to amend our complaint, but denied our preliminary
injunction. The discovery stage of the lawsuit expired in May 2016. Utility filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and we filed
a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. On March 30, 2017, the Court entered its order granting Utility’s motion and denying
our motion in their entireties. We have thirty (30) days after March 30, 2017 in which to appeal such decisions to the United
States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit and are considering our options.
On
September 13, 2014, Utility filed suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against us alleging
infringement of the ‘556 Patent. The suit was served on us on September 20, 2014. As alleged in our first filed lawsuit
described above, we believe that the ‘556 Patent is both invalid and not infringed. Further, the USPTO has issued its final
decision invalidating 23 of the 25 claims asserted in the ‘556 Patent, as noted above. We believe that the suit filed by
Utility is without merit and is vigorously defending the claims asserted against us. An adverse resolution of the foregoing litigation
or patent proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition,
and liquidity. The Court stayed all proceedings with respect to this lawsuit pending the outcome of the patent review performed
by the USPTO and the appellate court. Based on the USPTO’s final decision to invalidate substantially all claims contained
in the ‘556 Patent and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit full denial of Utility’s appeal,
we intend to file for summary judgment in its favor if Utility does not request outright dismissal.
We
received notice in April 2015 that Taser, one of our competitors, had commenced an action in the USPTO for a re-examination of
its U.S. Patent No. 8,781,292 (the “ ‘292 Patent”). A re-examination is essentially a request that the USPTO
review whether the patent should have issued in its present form in view of the “prior art,” e.g., other patents in
the same technology field. The prior art Taser used to request the re-examination is a patent application that never issued into
a patent was assigned to an unrelated third party and was not the result of any of Taser’s own research and development
efforts.
We
own the ‘292 Patent, which is directed to a system that determines when a recording device, such as a law enforcement officer’s
body camera or in-car video recorder, begins recording and automatically instructs other recording devices to begin recording.
The technology described in the ‘292 Patent is incorporated in our VuLink product.
On
August 17, 2015, the USPTO issued a first, non-final action rejecting all 20 claims of the ‘292 Patent respecting its ‘292
Patent under an
ex parte
re-examination. We were provided the opportunity to discuss the merits of the prior art and the
scope of the patent claims with the patent Examiner handling the reexamination and to amend the patent claims. On January 14,
2016, the USPTO ultimately rejected Taser’s efforts and confirmed the validity of the ‘292 Patent with 59 claims covering
various aspects of our auto-activation technology. On February 2, 2016, the USPTO issued another patent relating to our auto-activation
technology for law enforcement cameras. U.S. Patent No. 9,253,452 (the “ ‘452 Patent”) generally covers the
automatic activation and coordination of multiple recording devices in response to a triggering event, such as a law enforcement
officer activating the light bar on the vehicle.
We
filed suit on January 15, 2016 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (Case No: 2:16-cv-02032) against Taser, alleging
willful patent infringement against Taser’s Axon body camera product line. The lawsuit was initiated after the USPTO reconfirmed
the validity of the ‘292 Patent, which covers various aspects of auto-activation and multiple camera coordination for body-worn
cameras and in-car video systems. The ‘292 Patent previously was subject to attack by Taser, which tried to invalidate it
at the USPTO. The USPTO ultimately rejected Taser’s efforts and confirmed the validity of the ‘292 Patent with 59
claims covering various aspects of this valuable auto-activation technology. On February 2, 2016, the USPTO issued another patent
relating to our auto-activation technology for law enforcement cameras. This ‘452 Patent generally covers the automatic
activation and coordination of multiple recording devices in response to a triggering event such as a law enforcement officer
activating the light bar on the vehicle. We added the ‘452 patent to its existing lawsuit against Taser seeking both monetary
damages and a permanent injunction against Taser for infringement of both the ‘452 and ‘292 Patents.
In
addition to the infringement claims, we added a new set of claims to the lawsuit alleging that Taser conspired to keep us out
of the marketplace by engaging in improper, unethical, and unfair competition. The amended lawsuit alleges Taser bribed officials
and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for our products in violation of both state law and federal antitrust law.
Our lawsuit also seeks monetary and injunctive relief, including treble damages, for these alleged violations.
We
filed an amended complaint and Taser filed an answer which denied the patent infringement allegations on April 1, 2016. In addition,
Taser filed a motion to dismiss all allegations in the complaint on March 4, 2016 for which we an amended complaint on March 18,
2016 to address certain technical deficiencies in the pleadings. Taser amended and renewed its motion to seek dismissal of the
allegations that it had bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both
state law and federal antitrust law on April 1, 2016. Formal discovery commenced on April 12, 2016 with respect to the patent
related claims. In January 2017 the Court granted Taser’s motion to dismiss the portion of the lawsuit regarding claims
that it had bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both state law
and federal antitrust law. We have appealed this decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and are
awaiting its decision.
In
December 2016, Taser announced that it had commenced an action in the USPTO for
inter partes review
of its U.S. Patent
No. 8,781,292 (the “ ‘292 Patent”). Previously Taser had attempted to invalidate the ‘292 Patent through
a re-examination procedure at the USPTO. On January 14, 2016, the USPTO ultimately rejected Taser’s efforts and confirmed
the validity of the ‘292 Patent with 59 claims covering various aspects of our auto-activation technology. The USPTO fully
rejected all of Taser’s previous arguments, concluding all 59 claims in Digital Ally’s ‘292 patent were valid
and non-obvious. Taser is again attempting through its recently filed
inter partes review
to convince the USPTO that Digital
Ally’s patents lack patentability. The USPTO is taking the request under consideration and has not decided whether it will
institute the
inter partes review.
In addition, Taser has requested that the patent infringement lawsuit filed by Digital
Ally in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (Case No: 2:16-cv-02032) against Taser, be stayed while its
inter
partes review
is being considered by the USPTO. Digital Ally has filed a motion to deny the stay and both motions are currently
being considered by the Court.
On
May 27, 2016, we filed suit against Enforcement Video, LLC d/b/a WatchGuard Video (“WatchGuard”), (Case No. 2:16-cv-02349-JTM-JPO)
alleging patent infringement based on WatchGuard’s VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product lines.
The
USPTO has granted multiple patents to us with claims covering numerous features, such as automatically and simultaneously activating
all deployed cameras in response to the activation of just one camera. Additionally, our patent claims cover automatic coordination
as well as digital synchronization between multiple recording devices. We also have patent coverage directed to the coordination
between a multi-camera system and an officer’s smartphone, which allows an officer to more readily assess an event on the
scene while an event is taking place or immediately after it has occurred.
Our
lawsuit alleges that WatchGuard incorporated this patented technology into its VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product lines without
its permission. Specifically, we are accusing WatchGuard of infringing three patents: the ‘292 and ‘452 Patents and
U.S. Patent No. 9,325,950. We are aggressively challenging WatchGuard’s infringing conduct, seeking both monetary damages,
as well as seeking a permanent injunction preventing WatchGuard from continuing to sell its VISTA Wifi and 4RE In-Car product
lines using our own technology to compete against it. The lawsuit is in the early stages of discovery.
We
are also involved as a plaintiff and defendant in ordinary, routine litigation and administrative proceedings incidental to our
business from time to time, including customer collections, vendor and employment-related matters. We believe the likely outcome
of any other pending cases and proceedings will not be material to our business or financial condition.
We
are uncertain of our ability to protect our proprietary technology and information.
In
addition to seeking patent protection, we rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological advancement to seek to
achieve and thereafter maintain a competitive advantage. Although we have entered into or intend to enter into confidentiality
and invention agreements with our employees, consultants and advisors, no assurance can be given that such agreements will be
honored or that we will be able to effectively protect our rights to our unpatented trade secrets and know-how. Moreover, no assurance
can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise
gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.
Foreign
currency fluctuations may affect our competitiveness and sales in foreign markets.
The
relative change in currency values creates fluctuations in our product pricing for potential international customers. These changes
in foreign end-user costs may result in lost orders and reduce the competitiveness of our products in certain foreign markets.
These changes may also negatively affect the financial condition of some existing or potential foreign customers and reduce or
eliminate their future orders of our products. We also import selected components which are used in the manufacturing of some
of our products. Although our purchase orders are in the United States dollar, weakness in the United States dollar could lead
to price increases for the components.
Risks
related to our license arrangements.
We
have licensing agreements with Sasken and Lead regarding certain software used as the platform for the proprietary software we
have developed for use in our products. These licensing agreements have specified terms and are renewable on an annual basis unless
both parties determine not to renew them and provided the parties are in compliance with the agreements. If we fail to make the
payments under these licenses or if these licenses are not renewed for any reason, it would cause us significant time and expense
to redevelop our software on a different software platform, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.
Our
revenues and operating results may fluctuate unexpectedly from quarter to quarter, which may cause our stock price to decline.
Our
revenues and operating results have varied significantly in the past and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future
due to various factors that are both in and outside our control. Thus, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating
results may not be meaningful in the short-term, and our performance in a particular period may not be indicative of our performance
in any future period.
Coalitions
of a few of our larger stockholders have sufficient voting power to make corporate governance decisions that could have significant
effect on us and the other stockholders.
Our
officers, directors and principal stockholders (greater than five percent stockholders) together control approximately 19.5%,
including options vested or to vest within sixty days, of our outstanding common stock at December 31, 2016. Thus, these stockholders,
if they act together, will be able to exert a significant degree of influence over our management and affairs and over matters
requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition,
this concentration of ownership may delay or prevent a change in our control and might affect the market price of our common stock,
even when a change in control may be in the best interest of all stockholders. Furthermore, the interests of this concentration
of ownership may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other stockholders. Accordingly, these stockholders
could cause us to enter into transactions or agreements that we would not otherwise consider.
We
are a party to several lawsuits both as a plaintiff and as a defendant in which we may ultimately not prevail resulting in losses
and may cause our stock price to decline.
We
are involved as a plaintiff and defendant in routine litigation and administrative proceedings incidental to our business from
time to time, including customer collections, vendor and employment-related matters. See “Litigation.” We believe
that the likely outcome of any other pending cases and proceedings will not be material to our business or financial condition.
However, there can be no assurance that we will prevail in the litigation or proceedings or that we may not have to pay damages
or other awards to the other party.
Risks
Relating to our Common Stock
The
possible issuance of common stock subject to options and warrants may dilute the interest of stockholders.
We
have granted options to purchase a total of 362,440 shares of our common stock under our stock option and restricted stock plans
and common stock purchase warrants for 2,379,290 shares, which were outstanding and unexercised as of December 31, 2016. The foregoing
figures include the Warrants, which are exercisable to purchase 800,000 shares of our common stock. To the extent that outstanding
stock options and Warrants are exercised, dilution to the interests of our stockholders may occur. Moreover, the terms upon which
we will be able to obtain additional equity capital may be adversely affected since the holders of the outstanding options can
be expected to exercise them at a time when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital on terms more favorable
to us than those provided in such outstanding options.
We
have never paid dividends and have no plans to in the future.
Holders
of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors. To date, we
have paid no cash dividends on our shares of common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to provide funds for operation of our business. Therefore, any
return investors in our common stock will have to be in the form of appreciation, if any, in the market value of their shares
of common stock.
We
have additional securities available for issuance, including blank check preferred stock, which, if issued, could adversely affect
the rights of the holders of our common stock.
Our
articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock and 10,000,000 shares of blank check
preferred stock. The common stock and preferred stock can be issued by our board of directors without stockholder approval. Any
future issuances of equity would further dilute the percentage ownership of us held by our public shareholders.
Our
preferred stock is not intended to have any anti-takeover effect and is not part of any series of anti-takeover measures contained
in our articles of incorporation or bylaws. However, the availability of additional authorized and unissued shares of preferred
stock could make any attempt to gain control of us or the Board more difficult or time-consuming and the availability of additional
authorized and unissued shares might make it more difficult to remove management. Shares of preferred stock could be issued by
the Board to dilute the percentage of stock owned by any stockholder and increase the cost of, or the number of, voting shares
necessary to acquire control of the Board or to meet the voting requirements imposed by Nevada law with respect to a merger or
other business combination involving us. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights by our Board may adversely
affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, including the loss of voting control to others.
Our
stock price is likely to be highly volatile because of several factors, including a limited public float.
The
market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile because there has been a relatively thin trading market for our
stock, which causes trades of small blocks of stock to have a significant impact on our stock price. You may not be able to resell
shares of our common stock following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to volatility.
Other factors that could
cause such volatility may include, among other things:
|
●
|
digital video in-car recording products not being accepted by the law enforcement industry or digital video recording not being accepted as evidence in criminal proceedings;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
acceptance of our new products in the marketplace and, in particular, the commercial market;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the potential absence of securities analysts covering us and distributing research and recommendations about us;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
we expect our actual operating results to fluctuate widely as we increase our sales and production capabilities and other operations;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
we may have a low trading volume for a number of reasons, including that a large amount of our stock is closely held;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
overall stock market fluctuations;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
economic conditions generally and in the law enforcement and security industries in particular;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements concerning our business or those of our competitors or customers;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
our ability to raise capital when we require it, and to raise such capital on favorable terms;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
we have no institutional line-of-credit available to fund our operations and we may be unable to obtain a line of credit under terms that are mutually agreeable;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes in financial estimates by securities analysts or our failure to perform as anticipated by the analysts;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements of technological innovations;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
conditions or trends in the industry;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
litigation;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes in market valuations of other similar companies;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements by us or our competitors of new products or of significant technical innovations, contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
future sales of common stock;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
actions initiated by the SEC or other regulatory bodies;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
existence or lack of patents or proprietary rights;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
departure of key personnel or failure to hire key personnel; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
general market conditions.
|
Any of these factors could
have a significant and adverse impact on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the stock market in general has at
times experienced extreme volatility and rapid decline that has often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance
of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, regardless
of our actual operating performance.
Indemnification of officers and directors.
Our articles of incorporation
and the bylaws contain broad indemnification and liability limiting provisions regarding our officers, directors and employees,
including the limitation of liability for certain violations of fiduciary duties. Our stockholders therefore will have only limited
recourse against such individuals.
The market for our common stock is sometimes
limited and may not provide adequate liquidity.
At times our common stock
had been thinly traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. On many days, the trading volume can be relatively small, which meant there
was limited liquidity in our shares of common stock. Selling our shares during such periods is more difficult because smaller quantities
of shares are bought and sold and news media coverage about us can be limited. These factors have at times resulted in a limited
trading market for our common stock and therefore holders of our stock may have been unable to sell shares purchased, if they desired
to do so.
If securities or industry analyst do
not publish research reports about our business, or if they downgrade our stock, the price of our common stock could decline.
Small, relatively unknown
companies can achieve visibility in the trading market through research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish.
To our knowledge there are no independent analysts who cover us. The lack of published reports by independent securities analysts
could limit the interest in our common stock and negatively affect our stock price. Even if we did have such coverage, we would
not have any control over the research and reports any analysts might publish. If any analyst who did cover us downgrades our stock,
our stock price could decline. If any analyst who had been covering us ceases coverage of us or failed to regularly publish reports
on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.
Future sales of our common stock may
depress our stock price
.
On December 30, 2016, we
completed the Private Placement of the Debentures and Warrants for gross proceed of $4.0 million. The principal amount of the Debentures
is $4.0 million and they are convertible at any time six months after their date of issue at the option of the holders into shares
of our common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Debentures mature on March 30, 2018. The Warrants
are exercisable to purchase up to an aggregate of 800,000 shares of our common stock commencing on the date of issuance at an exercise
price of $5.00 per share (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants will expire on the fifth anniversary of their date of
issuance. The Conversion Price and Exercise Price are subject to adjustment upon stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar
capital changes.
On July 22, 2015, we closed
a private placement in which we issued Series A warrants, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants that are exercisable to purchase
a total of 1,539,590 shares of our common stock. The Series A Warrants are exercisable to purchase 437,086 shares of common stock
for a term of 24 months from their date of issuance at a price of $13.43 per share. A total of 20,000 of the Series A warrants
were exercised during 2016. The Series B and Series C Warrants are exercisable to purchase 1,102,504 shares of common stock for
a term of five and one-half years from their dates of issuance at a price $13.43 per share. The issuance of the Warrants, Series
A Warrants, the Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants may have had, and may continue to have, a depressive effect of the price
of our common stock.
We can make no prediction
to the effect, if any, that future sales of our common stock, or the availability of our common stock for future sales, will have
on the market price of our common stock. Sales in the public market of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception
that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. The potential effect of these
shares being sold may be to depress the price at which our common stock trades.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain information included
in this prospectus may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Where any forward-looking statement includes a statement of
the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking statement, we caution that, while we believe these assumptions or bases

between assumed facts or bases and actual results can be material, depending upon the circumstances. Where, in any forward-looking
statement, we or our management express an expectation or belief as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed
in good faith and is believed to have a reasonable basis. We cannot assure you, however, that the statement of expectation or belief
will result or be achieved or accomplished. These statements relate to analyses and other information which are based on forecasts
of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable. These statements also relate to our future prospects, developments

“may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “will,” and similar terms and
phrases, including references to assumptions. These statements are contained in the section “Risk Factors” and other
sections of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual future
activities and results of operations to be materially different from those suggested or described in this prospectus. A wide variety
of factors could cause or contribute to such differences and could adversely impact revenues, profitability, cash flows and capital

These risks include the
risks that are identified in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus, and also include, among others, expectations
regarding the following: (1) our losses in recent years, including fiscal 2015 and 2016; (2) macro-economic risks from the effects
of the economic downturn and decrease in budgets for the law-enforcement community; (3) our ability to increase revenues, increase
our margins and return to consistent profitability in the current economic and competitive environment; (4) our operation in developing
markets and uncertainty as to market acceptance of our technology and new products; (5) the impact of the federal government’s
stimulus program on the budgets of law enforcement agencies, including the timing, amount and restrictions on funding; (6) our
ability to deliver our new product offerings as scheduled and have such new products perform as planned or advertised; (7) whether
there will be commercial markets, domestically and internationally, for one or more of our newer products, and the degree to which
the interest shown in our products, including the FirstVU HD, VuLink, VuVault.net, FleetVU and MicroVU HD, will translate into
sales during 2017; (8) our ability to maintain or expand our share of the market for our products in the domestic and international
markets in which we compete, including increasing our international revenues to their historical levels; (9) our ability to produce
our products in a cost-effective manner; (10) competition from larger, more established companies with far greater economic and
human resources; (11) our ability to attract and retain quality employees; (12) risks related to dealing with governmental entities
as customers; (13) our expenditure of significant resources in anticipation of sales due to our lengthy sales cycle and the potential
to receive no revenue in return; (14) characterization of our market by new products and rapid technological change; (15) our dependence
on sales of our DVM-800, DVM-800 HD, FirstVU, First VU HD and DVM-250 products; (16) potential that stockholders may lose all or
part of their investment if we are unable to compete in our markets and return to profitability; (17) defects in our products that
could impair our ability to sell our products or could result in litigation and other significant costs; (18) our dependence on
key personnel; (19) our reliance on third party distributors and sales representatives for part of our marketing capability; (20)
our dependence on a few manufacturers and suppliers for components of our products and our dependence on domestic and foreign manufacturers
for certain of our products; (21) our ability to protect technology through patents; (22) our ability to protect our proprietary
technology and information as trade secrets and through other similar means; (23) risks related to our license arrangements; (24)
our revenues and operating results may fluctuate unexpectedly from quarter to quarter; (25) sufficient voting power by coalitions
of a few of our larger stockholders, including directors and officers, to make corporate governance decisions that could have significant
effect on us and the other stockholders; (26) sale of substantial amounts of our common stock that may have a depressive effect
on the market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock; (27) possible issuance of common stock subject to options and
warrants that may dilute the interest of stockholders; (28) our ability to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404 as
it may be required; (29) our nonpayment of dividends and lack of plans to pay dividends in the future; (30) future sale of a substantial
number of shares of our common stock that could depress the trading price of our common stock, lower our value and make it more
difficult for us to raise capital; (31) our additional securities available for issuance, which, if issued, could adversely affect
the rights of the holders of our common stock; (32) our stock price is likely to be highly volatile due to a number of factors,
including a relatively limited public float; (33) whether the legal actions that the Company is taking or has taken against Utility
Associates, Taser and WatchGuard will achieve their intended objectives; (34) whether the USPTO rulings will curtail, eliminate
or otherwise have an effect on the actions of Taser and Utility Associates respecting us, our products and customers; (35) whether
the remaining two claims under the ‘556 Patent have applicability to us or our products; and (36) whether our patented VuLink
technology is becoming the
de-facto
“standard” for agencies engaged in deploying state-of-the-art body-worn
and in-car camera systems; (37) whether this technology will have a significant impact on our revenues in the long-term; and (38)
indemnification of our officers and directors.
We undertake no obligation
to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or otherwise. If one or more
of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially
from those expected, estimated or projected.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We
may receive proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants by the selling stockholders, if exercised. We cannot guarantee that the
selling stockholders will exercise the Warrants. Any proceeds we receive from the selling stockholders upon their exercise of the
Warrants will be used for general working capital.
The selling stockholders
named in this prospectus will pay any underwriting fees, discounts and commissions, along with certain of the selling stockholders’
out-of-pocket expenses, incurred in connection with their sale of shares registered under this prospectus. We will bear all other
costs, fees and expenses incurred by us, or by the selling stockholders, in effecting the registration, offer and sale of the shares
covered by this prospectus, to the extent not paid by the selling stockholders.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The
shares of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those issuable to the selling stockholders upon exercise of
the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Warrants, see “Description of Securities—
Private
Placement of Warrants.
” We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to
offer the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) for resale from time to time. Except
for the ownership of the Warrants issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the investment in private placements
by one of the selling stockholders with us in March 2014 and August 2014 and both selling shareholders in our July 2015 private
placement, the selling stockholders has not had any material relationship with us or our affiliates within the past three years.
We
prepared the table based on information supplied to us by the selling stockholders. We have not sought to verify such information.
The percentages of shares beneficially owned and being offered are based on 5,679,731 shares of common stock that were outstanding
as of March 30, 2017, unless otherwise stated in the footnotes to the table below. Information about the selling stockholder may
also change over time.
The
table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock
by the selling stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders,
based on its ownership of the Warrants, as of March 30, 2017, assuming exercise of the Warrants held by the selling stockholders
on that date, without regard to any limitations on conversion, amortization, redemption or exercise.
The
third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders.
The
fourth column assumes the sale of all the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.
A holder of a Warrant
will not have the right to exercise any portion of its warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially
own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the
“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, the holder
may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, but in no event shall the Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed
9.99%. The number of shares in the second column does not reflect this limitation. The selling stockholders may sell all, some
or none of its shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

No offer or sale under
this prospectus may be made by a stockholder unless that holder is listed in the table above, in a supplement to this prospectus
or in an amendment to the related registration statement that has become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”). We will supplement or amend this prospectus to include additional selling stockholders upon
request and upon provision of all required information to us, subject to the terms of the registration rights, as described under
the “Description of Capital Stock -Registration Rights.”
Unless otherwise indicated,

Act”), or an affiliate of a broker-dealer registered under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the holders
of Warrants from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling
stockholders of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares
of common stock.
The selling stockholders
may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly
or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers,
the selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares
of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at
varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may
involve crosses or block transactions,

If the selling stockholders
effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters,
broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders
or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal
(which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those
customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the selling
shareholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common
stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and
deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection
with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may
sell such shares.
The selling stockholders
may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Warrants or shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default
in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock
from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee
or other successors in interest as a selling stockholder under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer and
donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in
interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling stockholders
and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer
may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares
of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate number of
shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents,
any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling shareholder and any discounts, commissions
or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers.
Under the securities laws
of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale
in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
There can be no assurance
that any selling shareholder will sell any or all the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement,
of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling stockholders
and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases
and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholder and any other participating person. Regulation M may
also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities
with respect to the shares of common stock. All the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the
ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.
We will pay all expenses
of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement,
estimated to be $15,000 in total, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of
compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that a selling stockholder will pay all underwriting
discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholder against liabilities, including some liabilities
under the Securities Act, in accordance with the foregoing registration rights, or the selling stockholder will be entitled to
contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholder against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus,
in accordance with the foregoing registration rights or we may be entitled to contribution.
Once sold under the registration
statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other
than our affiliates.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The
following description of our capital stock summarizes general terms and provisions that apply to our capital stock. Since this
is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. The summary is subject to and qualified
in its entirety by reference to our articles of incorporation, as amended, and our bylaws, as amended, which are filed as exhibits
to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and incorporated by reference into this prospectus. See “Where
You Can Find More Information.”
Our authorized capital
consists of 25,000,000 shares of stock $0.001 par value per share and 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value
$0.001 per share. As December 31, 2016, we had 5,552,449 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
For all matters submitted
to a vote of stockholders, holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share registered in his or her name on our
books, and they do not have cumulative voting rights. Each share of the common stock is entitled to share equally with each other
share of common stock in dividends from sources legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the board of directors
and, upon our liquidation or dissolution, whether voluntary or involuntary, to share equally in the assets that are available for
distribution to the holders of the common stock. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion
rights. The board of directors is authorized to issue additional shares of common stock within the limits authorized by our Articles
of Incorporation and without stockholder action.
Our common stock is listed
and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “DGLY”.
Dividend Policy
We
have never paid a cash dividend on our common stock. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future, and we plan to retain our earnings to finance our operations and future growth.
Private Placement of Warrants
On December 30, 2016, we
completed the Private Placement of $4.0 million in principal amount of 8% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”)
and common stock warrants (the “Warrants”) to two institutional investors, who are the selling shareholders. The Debentures
and Warrants were issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between us and the
selling shareholders. The Private Placement resulted in gross proceeds of $4.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses
associated with the transaction. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. WestPark Capital acted as Placement
Agent for us in the transaction and received a fee of $200,000 for its services. In addition, it will receive a fee of 3% of the
gross proceeds we derive from the exercise of the Warrants.
Prior to the maturity date,
the Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum with interest payable in cash quarterly in arrears on the first business day of each
calendar quarter following the issuance date. The Debentures rank senior to our existing and future indebtedness and are secured
to the extent and as provided in the security and related documents. The Debentures are convertible at any time six months after
their date of issue at the option of the holders into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion
Price”). The Debentures mature on March 30, 2018.
The Warrants are exercisable
to purchase up to an aggregate of 800,000 shares of our common stock commencing on the date of issuance at an exercise price of
$5.00 per share (the “Exercise Price”) until the fifth anniversary of their date of issuance.
The following is a summary
of the Warrants and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the terms set forth in the forms of the Warrants filed as
exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on January 3, 2017.
Exercisability.
The
selling stockholders may exercise the Warrants at any time after their date of issuance, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation
described below. The Warrants will expire on the fifth anniversary of their date of issuance. The selling stockholders shall deliver
the aggregate exercise price for the shares of common stock specified in the exercise notice within three trading days following
the date of exercise unless the cashless exercise is specified in the exercise notice.
Cashless Exercise.
If, after six months of the date of issuance of the Warrants, there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current
prospectus available for, the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the selling stockholders may also exercise
the Warrants, in whole or in part, on a cashless basis. When exercised on a cashless basis, a portion of the Warrants is cancelled
in payment of the purchase price payable in respect of the number of shares of our common stock purchasable upon such exercise.
Any Warrants that are outstanding on the termination date of the Warrants shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise.
Exercise Price.
The
exercise price of the Warrants is $5.00 per share of common stock and is subject to adjustment as described below.
Beneficial Ownership
Limitation.
A selling stockholder
shall have no right to exercise any portion of a Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, such stockholder,
together with such stockholder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such stockholder or any such
affiliate, would beneficially own in excess of, at the initial option of the holder thereof, either 4.99% or 9.99% of the number
of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the shares of common stock upon such exercise.
The selling stockholder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to us, may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership
limitation to a percentage not to exceed 9.99%. Beneficial ownership of the selling stockholders and their affiliates will be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder.
Certain Adjustments.
Stock dividends and
stock splits.
If we pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution payable in shares of common stock on shares of common
stock or any other common stock equivalents, subdivide or combine outstanding common stock, or reclassify common stock, the exercise
price of the Warrants will be adjusted by multiplying the then exercise price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of common stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event, and the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares outstanding immediately after such event.
Rights Offerings; pro
rata distributions
. If we issue common stock equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property
pro rata to holders of common stock, a holder of Warrants will be entitled to acquire, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation
described above, such common stock equivalents or rights that such holder could have acquired if such holder had held the number
of shares of common stock issuable upon complete exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to the date a record is taken for such
issuance. If we declare or make any dividend or other distribution of assets or rights to acquire assets to holders of common stock,
a holder of the Warrants will be entitled to participate, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation, in such distribution
to the same extent that the holder would have participated therein if the holder had held the number of Warrant Shares upon full
exercise of the Warrants.
Fundamental Transaction
.
If we effect a fundamental transaction, including, among other things, a merger, sale of substantially of the assets, tender offer,
exchange offer and other business combination transactions, then upon any subsequent exercise of the Warrants, the holder thereof
shall have the right to receive, for each share of common stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior
to the occurrence of such fundamental transaction, the number of shares of the successor’s or acquiring corporation’s
common stock or of our common stock, if we are the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result
of such fundamental transaction by a holder of the number of shares of common stock for which the Warrants is exercisable immediately
prior to such fundamental transaction.
Transferability.
The
Warrants and all rights thereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of the Warrants, together with a written
assignment of the Warrants.
No Rights as Stockholder
until Exercise.
The holders of the Warrants do not have any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a holder of our capital
stock until they exercise the Warrants, except as set forth above.
July 2015 Private Placement of Warrants
On
July 22, 2015, we closed a private placement in which the selling stockholders purchased the Series B Warrants exercisable to purchase
222,738 shares of common stock and the Series C Warrants exercisable to purchase 879,766 shares of common stock.

voting shares held by any interested stockholder and (vi) any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit (except proportionately
as a stockholder) of any loan, advance, guarantee, pledge or other financial assistance. For purposes of the NRS, an “interested
stockholder” is defined to include any beneficial owner of more than 10% of any class of the voting securities of a Nevada
corporation and any person who is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was at any time during the preceding three years
the beneficial owner or more than 10% of any class of the voting securities of the Nevada corporation.
Subject to certain exceptions,
the provisions of the NRS statute governing combinations with interested stockholders provide that a Nevada corporation may not
engage in a combination with an interested stockholder for two years after the date that the person first became an interested
stockholder unless the combination or the transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder is approved by
the board of directors before the person first became an interested stockholder.
Control Share Acquisitions.
The NRS also contains a “control share acquisitions statute.” If applicable to a Nevada corporation this statute
restricts the voting rights of certain stockholders referred to as “acquiring persons,” that acquire or offer to acquire
ownership of a “controlling interest” in the outstanding voting stock of an “issuing corporation.” For
purposes of these provisions a “controlling interest” means with certain exceptions the ownership of outstanding voting
stock sufficient to enable the acquiring person to exercise one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less
than a majority, or a majority or more of all voting power in the election of directors and “issuing corporation” means
a Nevada corporation that has 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on the
stock ledger of the corporation, and which does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. The voting rights
of an acquiring person in the affected shares will be restored only if such restoration is approved by the holders of a majority
of the voting power of the corporation. The NRS allows a corporation to “opt-out” of the control share acquisitions
statute by providing in such corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws that the control share acquisitions statute
does not apply to the corporation or to an acquisition of a controlling interest specifically by types of existing or future stockholders,
whether or not identified.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and
Officers.
Under Nevada law, a corporation
shall indemnify a director or officer against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him,
to the extent the director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding.
A corporation may indemnify a director or officer who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, against expenses, including
attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection
with the action, suit or proceeding. Excepted from that immunity are:
● a willful failure to
deal fairly with the company or its stockholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of
interest;
● a violation of criminal
law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe
that his or her conduct was unlawful);
● a transaction from
which the director derived an improper personal profit; and
● willful misconduct.
Our bylaws include an indemnification
provision under which we have the power to indemnify our directors, officers and former officers and directors (including heirs
and personal representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses actually and reasonably incurred, including an amount paid
to settle an action or satisfy a judgment to which the director or officer is made a party by reason of being or having been a
director or officer of Digital Ally, Inc. or any of our subsidiaries.
Our bylaws also provide
that our directors may cause us to purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of a person who is or was serving as a director,
officer, employee or agent of Digital Ally, Inc. or any of our subsidiaries (including heirs and personal representatives) against
a liability incurred by him or her as our director, officer, employee or agent.

ITEM 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant
hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus
any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate,
the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information
with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;
Provided, however, that:
Paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii)
of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section
13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or
is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purposes of determining
any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by
means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the
registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus
was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii) Each prospectus required to
be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to
an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section
10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier
of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in
the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is
at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the
securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
Provided, however
, that no statement made in a registration
statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with
a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement
or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(5)
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial
distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned
registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser,
if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant
will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or
prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus
relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free
writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities
provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that
is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(6) The undersigned registrant hereby
undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated
by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(7) If and when applicable, the undersigned
registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under
subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission
under Section 305(b)(2) of the Act.
(8) Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
Signatures
Pursuant to the requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all the requirements
for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
duly authorized, in Lenexa, Kansas, on the 3rd day of April, 2017.
