On June 27, 2025, the Board of Directors of Innovative Eyewear, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that Tuesday, August 26, 2025, shall be the scheduled date of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”). The time and meeting website information for the 2025 Annual Meeting will be set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting.
Because the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting is scheduled more than 30 days after the anniversary of the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company is providing in this Current Report on Form 8-K the due dates for submissions of stockholder director nominations.
A director nomination (including nominations pursuant to Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act) outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) must have been received by the Company by July 10, 2025.
Stockholder director nominations must comply with all applicable requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Exchange Act, and the Bylaws.
