On April 29, 2019, the Nxt-ID filed a Form 10 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to spin off its Fit Pay, Inc. subsidiary and it payment authentication and credential management business into an independent company called PartX, Inc. and distribute its shares to Nxt-ID shareholders. The Form 10 Registration Statement is used to register a class of securities that are intended to be traded publicly and is subject to review and approval of the SEC.  

Following the successful completion of the spin-off transaction, which the Company believes will qualify as a tax-free distribution, Nxt-ID shareholders who own shares on the spin-off Record Date will receive a pro-rata distribution of shares PartX and will own shares of both Nxt-ID and PartX. The establishment of the Record Date for the distribution is pending review of the Form 10 Registration Statement by the SEC.
