EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (this "Form 10-K/A") amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of TRxADE HEALTH, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Trxade," "we," "us," the "registrant" or the "Company," including our subsidiaries, as applicable), for the year ended December 31, 2023 that we originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 22, 2024 (the "Original Filing"). We are filing this Form 10-K/A to provide the information required by Items 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of Part III of Form 10-K. We previously omitted this information from the Original Filing in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K. We hereby amend and restate in its entirety Part III of the Original Filing. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in Part III of this Form 10-K/A shall have the same meanings assigned to those terms in Parts I and II of the Original Filing.

Pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Part IV, Item 15 (Exhibit Index) has also been amended to contain the currently dated certifications from our principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are attached to this Form 10-K/A as Exhibits 31.3 and 31.4, respectively. Because no financial statements have been included in this Form 10-K/A and this Form 10-K/A does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, we have omitted paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications filed with this Form 10-K/A. Additionally, we are not including the certifications under Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, because we are not filing any financial statements with this Form 10-K/A.

Except as set forth in this Form 10-K/A, this Form 10-K/A does not amend or otherwise update any other information in the Original Filing. Other than the information specifically amended and restated herein, this Form 10-K/A does not reflect events occurring after April 22, 2024, the date of the Original Filing, or modify or update those disclosures that may have been affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and with our filings with the SEC after the Original Filing.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Form 10-K/A contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements which are subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Some of the statements in this Form 10-K/A constitute forward-looking statements because they relate to future events or our future performance or future financial condition. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our company, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management team's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "ongoing," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These factors include those set forth below and those disclosed under "Risk Factors" in the Original Filing. Forward-looking statements in this Form 10-K/A may include, for example, statements about:

	●	Risks related to our history of operating losses and that our operations may not become profitable;
	●	Claims relating to alleged violations of intellectual property rights of others;
	●	Technical problems with our websites;
	●	Risks relating to implementing our acquisition strategies, and the risk that acquisitions will likely be dilutive to our stockholders and we may not realize the anticipated benefits of certain strategic transactions that we pursue or effect;
	●	Our ability to manage our growth;
	●	Negative effects on our operations associated with the opioid pain medication health crisis;
	●	Regulatory and licensing requirement risks;
	●	Risks related to changes in the U.S. healthcare environment;
	●	The status of our information systems, facilities and distribution networks;
	●	Risks associated with the operations of our more established competitors;
	●	Regulatory changes;
	●	Healthcare fraud;
	●	Our ability to respond to general economic conditions, including financial market volatility and disruption, elevated levels of inflation, and declining economic conditions in the United States;
	●	Changes in laws or regulations relating to our operations;
	●	Privacy laws;
	●	System errors;
	●	Dependence on current management;
	●	Our growth strategy; and
	●	Other risks disclosed in the Original Filing under "Risk Factors."

The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K/A are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the section of the Original Filing entitled "Risk Factors." Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

We use words such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends," "seeks," "plans," "estimates," "targets" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K/A involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those implied or expressed in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including the factors set forth in "Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Original Filing.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statements in this Form 10-K/A should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.

We have based the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K/A on information available to us on the date of this Form 10-K/A, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in this Form 10-K/A, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we may file in the future with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file reports with the SEC regarding their ownership and changes in ownership of our securities.

Other than as reported below, and based solely upon a review of those reports and written representations provided to us by all of our directors and executive officers, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2023, our directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders timely filed all reports they were required to file under Section 16(a).

Michael L. Peterson, a director, filed a Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership report on Form 4 on January 20, 2023 reporting the receipt of a stock award and a stock option. That Form 4 was filed after its prescribed due date.

The Code of Ethics will be available for review in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests a copy by writing to us at TRxADE HEALTH, Inc., 2420 Brunello Trace Lutz, FL 33558, Attention: Investor Relations.

We intend to disclose any amendments to our Code of Ethics and any waivers with respect to our Code of Ethics granted to our principal executive officer, our principal financial officer, or any of our other employees performing similar functions on our website at https://trxadehealth.com/investors/ and also in a Current Report on Form 8-K, as required, within four business days following the date of such amendment or waiver.

Corporate Governance

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee, which is comprised exclusively of independent directors, currently consists of Michael L. Peterson (chair), Donald G. Fell and Jeff Newell. The Audit Committee has been established by the Board to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements.

The Board has selected the members of the Audit Committee based on the Board's determination that the members are financially literate (as required by Nasdaq rules) and qualified to monitor the performance of management and the independent auditors and to monitor our disclosures so that our disclosures fairly present our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Board has also determined that Mr. Peterson is an "audit committee financial expert" (as defined in the SEC rules) because he has the following attributes: (i) an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and financial statements; (ii) the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; (iii) experience analyzing and evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by our financial statements; (iv) an understanding of internal control over financial reporting; and (v) an understanding of audit committee functions. Mr. Peterson has acquired these attributes by means of having held various positions that provided relevant experience, as described in his biographical information above.

The Audit Committee has the sole authority, at its discretion and at our expense, to retain, compensate, evaluate and terminate our independent auditors and to review, as it deems appropriate, the scope of our annual audits, our accounting policies and reporting practices, our system of internal controls, our compliance with policies regarding business conduct and other matters. In addition, the Audit Committee has the authority, at its discretion and at our expense, to retain special legal, accounting or other advisors to advise the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee Charter was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K which we filed with the SEC on October 28, 2019.

Risk Oversight

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Board discusses risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The Board's approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company's business and strategy, evaluating the Company's risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.

The Board exercises direct oversight of strategic risks to the Company. The Audit Committee reviews and assesses the Company's processes to manage business and financial risk and financial reporting risk. It also reviews the Company's policies for risk assessment and assesses steps management has taken to control significant risks. The Compensation Committee oversees risks relating to compensation programs and policies. In each case management periodically reports to our Board or relevant committee, which provides guidance on risk assessment and mitigation. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends the slate of director nominees for election to the Company's Board, identifies and recommends candidates to fill vacancies occurring between annual stockholder meetings, reviews, evaluates and recommends changes to the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines, and establishes the process for conducting the review of the Chief Executive Officer's performance.

Insider Trading/Anti-Hedging Policies

All employees, officers and directors of the Company or any of our subsidiaries are subject to our Insider Trading Policy. The policy prohibits the unauthorized disclosure of any nonpublic information acquired in the workplace and the misuse of material nonpublic information in securities trading. The policy also prohibits trading in Company securities during certain pre-established blackout periods around the filing of periodic reports and the public disclosure of material information. The Company recognizes that hedging against losses in Company shares may disturb the alignment between stockholders and executives that equity awards are intended to build. To ensure compliance with the policy and applicable federal and state securities laws, all individuals subject to the policy must refrain from the purchase or sale of our securities except in designated trading windows or pursuant to preapproved 10b5-1 trading plans. The anti-hedging provisions prohibit all employees, officers and directors from engaging in "short sales" of our securities.

Employment Agreements with Our Named Executive Officers

Suren Ajjarapu, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary

Effective on April 14, 2020, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Suren Ajjarapu, our Chief Executive Officer, which replaced and superseded his prior employment agreement with the Company.

The agreement, which provides for Mr. Ajjarapu to serve as our Chief Executive Officer, has a term extending through December 31, 2025, provided that the agreement automatically extends for additional one-year terms thereafter in the event neither party provides the other at least 60 days prior notice of their intention not to renew the terms of the agreement. The agreement also requires the Board, subject to certain exceptions, to nominate Mr. Ajjarapu to serve on the Board at each stockholders' meeting which occurs during the term of the agreement and to serve as the Chairman of the Board.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Ajjarapu's annual compensation package includes (1) a base salary of $360,000 per year ($300,000 for the 2020 fiscal year), subject to annual increases as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, and as discussed below (the "Base Salary"), and (2) a performance bonus equal to up to 100% of his Base Salary each year, based on the Company meeting certain performance metrics as determined from time to time by the Compensation Committee and Mr. Ajjarapu ("Performance Metrics"). Additionally, in the event that Mr. Ajjarapu meets at least 70% of the requirements for any annual performance bonus, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board (which requirement was met for the 2020 fiscal year, and which salary was automatically increased), Mr. Ajjarapu's Base Salary is increased by 20%. Mr. Ajjarapu is eligible for the Base Salary increase on an annual basis, with such increases being cumulative. Such increases in Base Salary do not require an amendment to the agreement. Mr. Ajjarapu's performance bonus metrics include specific company performance goals and objectives, including revenue goals, app downloads, and net operating income milestones, as may be modified or added to from time to time with the mutual approval of Mr. Ajjarapu and the Compensation Committee. The determination of whether the Performance Metrics have been met are determined in the reasonable discretion of the Compensation Committee, no later than 90 days after (a) December 31, 2020, in connection with the 2020 Performance Metrics; and (b) the end of such calendar year for subsequent years. For the year ended December 31, 2020, Mr. Ajjarapu was awarded 49,020 shares of restricted common stock (the "2020 Restricted Stock"), valued at $372,062, based on the closing sales price of the Company's common stock on the effective date of grant, which vested in full. Mr. Ajjarapu may also receive additional bonuses awarded from time to time in the discretion of the Board and/or Compensation Committee and the Board (in cash, options or other forms of equity) or the Compensation Committee may waive or change the performance metrics associated with his performance bonus in their discretion. Mr. Ajjarapu's compensation under his employment agreement may be increased from time to time, by the Compensation Committee, or the Board (with the recommendation of the Compensation Committee), which increases do not require the entry into an amended employment agreement. Mr. Ajjarapu is also paid an automobile allowance of $1,000 per month during the term of the agreement and is eligible to participate in our stock option plan and other benefit plans.

The agreement requires Mr. Ajjarapu to devote at least 75% of his business time and efforts to Company business. The agreement also prohibits Mr. Ajjarapu from competing against us during the term of the agreement and for a period of twelve months after the termination of the agreement in any state and any other geographic area in which we or our subsidiaries provide Restricted Services or Restricted Products, directly or indirectly, during the twelve months preceding the date of the termination of the agreement. "Restricted Services" means the manufacture, distribution, wholesale and sale of Restricted Products, healthcare services and any other services that we or our subsidiaries have provided or are researching, developing, performing and/or providing at any time during the two years immediately preceding the date of termination, or which Mr. Ajjarapu has obtained any trade secret or other confidential information about at any time during the two years immediately preceding the date of termination of the agreement. "Restricted Products" means pharmaceutical drugs and other healthcare products and any other product, that we or our subsidiaries have provided or are researching, developing, manufacturing, distributing, purchasing, selling and/or providing at any time during the two years immediately preceding the date the agreement is terminated, or which Mr. Ajjarapu obtained any trade secret or other confidential information in connection with at any time during the two years immediately preceding the date of termination of the agreement.

We may terminate Mr. Ajjarapu's employment (a) for "cause" (which is defined to include, a material breach of the agreement by Mr. Ajjarapu, any act of misappropriation of funds or embezzlement by Mr. Ajjarapu, Mr. Ajjarapu committing any act of fraud, or Mr. Ajjarapu being indicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere with respect to, theft, fraud, a crime involving moral turpitude, or a felony under federal or applicable state law); (b) in the event Mr. Ajjarapu suffers a physical or mental disability which renders him unable to perform his duties and obligations for either 90 consecutive days or 180 days in any 12-month period; (c) for any reason without "cause"; or (d) upon expiration of the initial term of the agreement (or any renewal) upon notice as provided above. The agreement also automatically terminates upon the death of Mr. Ajjarapu.

Mr. Ajjarapu may terminate his employment (a) for "good reason" (i.e., (i) if his position or duties are modified to such an extent that his duties are no longer consistent with the position of CEO of the Company, (ii) there has been a material breach by us of a material term of the agreement or Mr. Ajjarapu reasonably believes that we are violating any law which would have a material adverse effect on our operations and such violation continues uncured thirty days after such breach and after notice thereof has been provided to us by Mr. Ajjarapu, (iii) Mr. Ajjarapu's compensation is reduced without his consent, or we fail to pay to Mr. Ajjarapu any compensation due to him upon five days written notice from Mr. Ajjarapu informing us of such failure, or (iv) if Mr. Ajjarapu is also then serving as a member of the Board and is not re-nominated by the Board to serve as a member of the Board at any annual meeting of stockholders of the Company; provided, however, prior to any such termination by Mr. Ajjarapu for "good reason", Mr. Ajjarapu must first advise us in writing (within 15 days of the occurrence of such event) and provide us 15 days to cure (5 days in connection with the reduction of Mr. Ajjarapu's salary or the failure to pay amounts owed to him)); (b) for any reason without "good reason"; and (c) upon expiration of the initial term of the agreement (or any renewal) upon notice as provided above.

In the event that Mr. Ajjarapu's employment is terminated for any reason (not including, however, a termination by us for "cause" or a termination as a result of Mr. Ajjarapu's death or disability) during the twelve month period following a Change of Control (a "Change of Control Termination") or in anticipation of a Change of Control, we are required to pay Mr. Ajjarapu, within 60 days following the later of (i) the date of such Change of Control Termination; and (ii) the date of such Change of Control, a cash severance payment in a lump sum in an amount equal to 3.0 times the sum of his current base salary and the amount of the last bonus payable to Mr. Ajjarapu (the "Change of Control Payment"), which amount is due within 60 days of the later of (i) the date of such Change of Control Termination; and (ii) the date of such Change of Control. If Mr. Ajjarapu's employment terminates due to a Change of Control Termination within six (6) months prior to a Change of Control, it will be deemed to be "in anticipation of a Change of Control" for all purposes. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control, all of Mr. Ajjarapu's equity-based compensation immediately vests to Mr. Ajjarapu and any outstanding stock options held by Mr. Ajjarapu can be exercised by Mr. Ajjarapu until the earlier of (A) one (1) year from the date of termination and (B) the latest date upon which such stock options would have expired by their original terms under any circumstances, provided that if Mr. Ajjarapu's employment ends in anticipation of a Change of Control and such equity-based compensation awards or stock options have previously expired pursuant to their terms, the Company is required to pay Mr. Ajjarapu a lump sum payment, payable on the same date as the Change of Control Payment, equal to the Black Scholes value of the expired and unexercised equity compensation awards and stock options held by Mr. Ajjarapu on the date of termination, based on the value of such awards had they been exercisable through the end of their stated term and had not previously expired. "Change of Control" for the purposes of the agreement means: (a) any person obtaining beneficial ownership representing more than 50% of the total voting power represented by our then outstanding voting securities without the approval of not fewer than two-thirds of our Board; (b) a merger or consolidation of us whether or not approved by our Board, other than a merger or consolidation that would result in our voting securities immediately prior thereto continuing to represent at least 50% of the total voting power outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, (c) our stockholders approving a plan of complete liquidation or an agreement for the sale or disposition by us of all or substantially all of our assets, or (d) as a result of the election of members to our Board, a majority of the Board consists of persons who are not members of the Board on April 14, 2020, except in the event that such slate of directors is proposed by a committee of the Board or the Board; provided that if the definition of "Change of Control" in our Stock Incentive Plans or Equity Compensation Plans is more favorable than the definition above, then such definition shall be controlling.

If Mr. Ajjarapu's employment is terminated pursuant to his death, disability, the end of the initial term (or any renewal term), without "good reason" by Mr. Ajjarapu, or by us for "cause", Mr. Ajjarapu is entitled to all salary accrued through the termination date and no other benefits other than as required under the terms of employee benefit plans in which Mr. Ajjarapu was participating as of the termination date. Additionally, any unvested stock options or equity compensation held by Mr. Ajjarapu immediately terminate and are forfeited (unless otherwise provided in the applicable award) and any previously vested stock options (or if applicable equity compensation) are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Plan or Equity Compensation Plan, or award agreement, as such may describe the rights and obligations upon termination of employment of Mr. Ajjarapu.

If Mr. Ajjarapu's employment is terminated by Mr. Ajjarapu for "good reason", or by us without "cause", Mr. Ajjarapu is entitled to continue to receive the salary due pursuant to the terms of the agreement at the rate in effect upon the termination date for eighteen (18) months, plus the pro rata amount of any discretionary bonus and performance bonus he would have been due for the following eighteen (18) months (with any metrics being extrapolated based on the last four (4) full prior quarters of the Company's operations prior to termination). Additionally, unvested benefits (whether equity or cash benefits and bonuses) will vest immediately upon such termination and any outstanding stock options previously granted to Mr. Ajjarapu will vest immediately upon such termination and will be exercisable until the earlier of (A) one year from the date of termination and (B) the latest date upon which such stock options would have expired by their original terms under any circumstances. Mr. Ajjarapu is also to receive, if he elects, continued health insurance under COBRA, paid for by the Company, for eighteen (18) months following the termination date (subject to certain rights which reduce such obligation if Mr. Ajjarapu is covered by health insurance with a substantially similar level of insurance as prior to the termination).

The agreement contains standard assignment of inventions, indemnification and confidentiality provisions. Further, Mr. Ajjarapu is subject to non-solicitation covenants during the term of the agreement.

Although Mr. Ajjarapu will be prohibited from competing with us while he is employed with us, he will only be prohibited from competing for twelve months after his employment with us ends pursuant to the agreement.

Beneficial ownership as set forth below is based on our review of our record stockholders list and public ownership reports filed by certain stockholders of the Company and may not include certain securities held in brokerage accounts or beneficially owned by the stockholders described below.

To our knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, as of May 3, 2024, (a) the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws; and (b) no person owns more than 5% of our common stock. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of the officers or directors listed in the table below is 2420 Brunello Trace, Lutz, FL 33558. All of the securities reported below are common stock shares as we do not currently have any other outstanding classes of stock that can be converted to common shares.

The equity compensation plans approved by the Company's security holders are the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan ("2014 Stock Plan") of TRxADE HEALTH, Inc., Delaware corporation, the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan of TRxADE HEALTH, Inc., a Nevada corporation and predecessor in interest to TRxADE HEALTH, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the Second Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan of the Company.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan

A summary description of the 2014 Stock Plan is below.

Administration. The 2014 Stock Plan is administered by the Company's Board and the Compensation Committee of the Board.

Term. The 2014 Stock Plan shall continue in effect for a period of 10 years from its date of adoption. In general, the term of each option granted shall be no more than ten 10 years from the date of grant, though in certain instances such term may be shorter.

Eligibility. Employees and service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries and non-employee directors of the Company are eligible to receive awards under the 2014 Stock Plan. Awards under the 2014 Stock Plan may include grants of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units and performance shares, and awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Eligibility for any particular award is determined by the Administrator (as defined in the 2014 Stock Plan) and, in the case of certain awards such as incentive stock options, eligibility for receipt of such awards may be limited by the Internal Revenue Code.

Plan Limit.The 2014 Stock Plan had no remaining shares reserved for issuance as of the date of this Form 10-K/A.

Second Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan

On May 27, 2021, the stockholders of the Company approved and ratified the Company's Second Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"). The 2019 Plan provides an opportunity for any employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company, subject to any limitations provided by federal or state securities laws, to receive (i) incentive stock options (to eligible employees only); (ii) nonqualified stock options; (iii) restricted stock; (iv) stock awards; (v) shares in performance of services; or (vi) any combination of the foregoing. In making such determinations, the Board (or the Compensation Committee) may take into account the nature of the services rendered by such person, his or her present and potential future contribution to the Company's success, and such other factors as the Board (or the Compensation Committee) in its discretion shall deem relevant. Incentive stock options granted under the 2019 Plan are intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Nonqualified (non-statutory stock options) granted under the 2019 Plan are not intended to qualify as incentive stock options under the Code.

The 2019 Plan is intended to secure for the Company the benefits arising from ownership of the Company's common stock by the employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company, all of whom are and will be responsible for the Company's future growth. The 2019 Plan is designed to help attract and retain for the Company, qualified personnel for positions of exceptional responsibility, to reward employees, officers, directors, and consultants for their services to the Company and to motivate such individuals through added incentives to further contribute to the success of the Company.

Subject to adjustment in connection with the payment of a stock dividend, a stock split or subdivision or combination of the shares of common stock, or a reorganization or reclassification of the Company's common stock, the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2019 Plan is (i) two million (2,000,000) shares of common stock, and (ii) an annual increase on April 1st of each calendar year, beginning in 2021 (provided that no increase was approved in 2021 or 2022) and ending in 2029 (each a "Date of Determination"), in each case subject to the approval and determination of the Administrator on or prior to the applicable Date of Determination, equal to the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) of the total shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (B) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Administrator (the "Share Limit"), also known as an "evergreen" provision. Notwithstanding the above, no more than 25 million shares of shares of common stock may be issuable upon exercise of incentive stock options granted under the plan. In June 2023 our shareholders approved an amendment to the 2019 Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved under the 2019 Plan by 2,000,000 additional shares. The shares reserved under the 2019 Plan (and outstanding awards under the 2019 Plan) were proportionally reduced to give effect to the 1-for-15 reverse stock split effected by the Company in June 2023. As of the date of this Form 10-K/A, a total of 123,094 shares of common stock remain available for awards under the 2019 Plan.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Except as discussed or otherwise disclosed above under "Executive Compensation", which information is incorporated by reference where applicable in this "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence" section, the following sets forth a summary of all transactions since the beginning of the 2023, or any currently proposed transaction, in which the Company was to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the Company's total assets at the fiscal year-end for 2022 and 2023, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than compensation described above under "Executive Compensation"). We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the transactions described below were comparable to terms available or the amounts that would be paid or received, as applicable, in arm's-length transactions.

Transactions with Related Persons

On April 1, 2023, and July 1, 2023, the Company entered into a relationship with Scietech, LLC ("Scietech") in an independent contractor agreement to consult on increasing sales on the Integra Pharma Solutions, LLC ("IPS") and Trxade, Inc. platforms. The agreement was for an annual fee of $400,000 to be split equally between IPS and Trxade, Inc. A 31% investor in Scietech is the spouse of the interim CFO, Prashant Patel, which qualifies as a related party. The company was chosen because they were the most qualified to perform the desired qualifications.

On September 14, 2023, the Company issued a promissory note to Danam Health, Inc. (the "Danam Note") in the amount of $300,000. The Company received a deposit of $200,000 on September 14, 2023, and an additional deposit of $100,000 on October 13, 2023. The Danam Note accrues interest at 0% per annum and is due and payable no later than 30 days after a change in control of borrower, as defined in the note agreement. As of December 31, 2023, the balance of the Danam Note was $50,000.

On February 29, 2024, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Trxade, Inc. entered into a Subscription Agreement (the "Subscription Agreement") with Lafayette Energy Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Lafayette"). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, Trxade, Inc. will, in two equal tranches, invest a total of up to $5.0 million in Lafayette in exchange for up to 2,000,000 shares of Lafayette's newly created Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with the second tranche becoming payable only upon Trxade, Inc.'s receipt of notice that Lafayette has successfully drilled its first oil and gas well and produced at least one hundred (100) barrels of oil.

Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions

Our Audit Committee (which is made up of all independent directors) is tasked with reviewing and approving related party transactions. In reviewing such transactions, the committee will analyze the following factors, in addition to any other factors the committee deems appropriate, in determining whether to approve a related party transaction:

	(1)	fairness of the terms for the Company (including fairness from a financial point of view);
	(2)	materiality of the transaction;
	(3)	bids / terms for such transaction from unrelated parties;
	(4)	structure of the transaction;

	(5)	the policies, rules and regulations of the U.S. federal and state securities laws;
	(6)	the policies of the committee; and
	(7)	interests of each related party in the transaction.

The committee will only approve a related party transaction if the committee determines that the terms of the related party transaction are beneficial and fair (including fair from a financial point of view) to the Company and are lawful under the laws of the United States. In the event multiple members of the committee are deemed a related party, the related party transaction will be considered by the disinterested members of the Board in place of the committee.

The committee is prohibited from approving or ratifying any related party transaction whereby the Company directly or indirectly, including through any subsidiary, extends or maintains credit, arranges for the extension of credit, or renews an extension of credit, in the form of a personal loan to or for any director or executive officer (or equivalent thereof) of the Company.

In addition, our Code of Ethics, which is applicable to all of our employees, officers and directors, requires that all employees, officers and directors avoid any conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between an individual's personal interests and our interests.

Director Independence

The Board annually determines the independence of each director and nominee for election as a director, as defined in the listing standards of Nasdaq and applicable laws. The Board makes these determinations in accordance with Nasdaq's listing standards for the independence of directors and the SEC's rules.

In assessing director independence, the Board considers, among other matters, the nature and extent of any business relationships, including transactions conducted, between the Company and each director and between the Company and any organization for which one of our directors is a director or executive officer or with which one of our directors is otherwise affiliated.

The Board has affirmatively determined that each of Donald G. Fell, Michael L. Peterson and Jeff Newell are independent. Due to the fact that Mr. Suren Ajjarapu serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Prashant Patel serves as our President and interim Chief Financial officer, such persons are not independent. A majority of the Board is comprised of independent directors.

ITEM 14.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and (unless the de minimus exception of applicable law permits) non-audit services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair the independent registered public accounting firm's independence. Unless a type of service to be provided by the independent registered certified public accounting firm has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, all fees associated with the independent registered public accounting firm's services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee does not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm to management.
