<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">We are
a holding company that, through BK Technologies, Inc., our
operating subsidiary, provides two-way radio communications
equipment of high quality and reliability. In business for over 70
years, we design, manufacture and market wireless communications
products consisting of two-way LMRs, repeaters, base stations and
related components and subsystems. Two-way LMRs can be units that
are hand-held (portable) or installed in vehicles (mobile).
Repeaters expand the range of two-way LMRs, enabling them to
operate over a wider area. Base station components and subsystems
are installed at radio transmitter sites to improve performance by
enhancing the signal and reducing or eliminating signal
interference and enabling the use of one antenna for both
transmission and reception. We employ both analog and digital
technologies in our products.</font></div>

<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">Our
digital technology is compliant with the Project 25 standard
(&#x201C;P-25&#x201D;) for digital LMR equipment. The P-25 has been
adopted by representatives from the Association of Public-Safety
Communications Officials-International, the National Association of
State Technology Directors, the United States Federal Government
and other public safety user organizations. Our P-25 digital
products and our analog products function in the very high
frequency (136MHz &#x2013; 174MHz), ultra-high frequency (380MHz
&#x2013; 470MHz, 450MHz &#x2013; 520MHz), and 700-800 MHz bands. Our
P-25 KNG and KNG2 Series mobile and portable digital radios have
been validated under the P-25 Compliance Assessment Program
(&#x201C;CAP&#x201D;) as being P-25 compliant and interoperable with
the communications network infrastructure of six of our
competitors. Since we do not provide our own communications network
infrastructure, we believe CAP validation provides confidence for
federal, state and local emergency response agencies that our
products are a viable and attractive alternative for use on the
infrastructure of our competitors.</font></div>

BK Technologies and BK Radio-branded products serve the government

business and industrial market. We believe that we provide superior
value to a wide array of customers with demanding requirements,
including, for example, emergency response, public safety, homeland
security and military customers of federal and state government
agencies, as well as various commercial enterprises. Our two-way
radio products excel in applications with harsh and hazardous

corporate name from &#x201C;RELM Wireless Corporation&#x201D; to
&#x201C;BK Technologies, Inc.&#x201D; On March 28, 2019, we
implemented a holding company reorganization. The reorganization
created a new holding company, BK Technologies Corporation, which
became the new parent company of BK Technologies, Inc. BK
Technologies Corporation&#x2019;s only significant assets are the
outstanding equity interests in BK Technologies, Inc. and any other
future subsidiaries of BK Technologies Corporation. The holding
company reorganization was intended to create a more efficient
corporate structure and increase operational
flexibility.</font></div>

Nevada Control Share Acquisition Statute</font><font style="color: #000000">. Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the
Nevada Revised Statutes limit the voting rights of certain acquired
shares in a corporation. This &#x201C;control share&#x201D; statute
applies to any acquisition of outstanding voting securities of a
Nevada corporation that has 200 or more stockholders of record (at
least 100 of which are Nevada residents) and conducts business in
Nevada resulting in ownership of the corporation&#x2019;s then
outstanding voting securities in excess of one of the following
thresholds: (i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (ii)
one-third or more but less than a majority, and (iii) a majority or
more. Once an acquirer crosses one of these thresholds by acquiring
a controlling interest in the corporation, the shares which the
acquirer acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold
and within the 90 days immediately preceding the date when the
acquiring person acquired or offered to acquire a controlling
interest in the corporation become &#x201C;control shares.&#x201D;
The acquirer is denied voting rights with respect to the control
shares, unless stockholders representing a majority of the voting
power of the corporation approve the granting of full voting rights
to the control shares.</font></font></div>

Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (&#x201C;NRS&#x201D;)
provides that, subject to certain exceptions under Nevada law, or
unless the Articles of Incorporation or an amendment thereto
provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is
not individually liable to the Company or its stockholders or
creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act
in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven
that (i) the director&#x2019;s or officer&#x2019;s act or failure to
act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a
director or officer and (ii) the breach of those duties involved
intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. The
Company&#x2019;s Bylaws further provide that a director shall not be
personally liable for monetary damages for any action taken, or
failure to take any action, unless (i) the director breached or
failed to perform the duties of his or her office as provided in
the NRS; and (ii) the breach or failure to perform constituted
self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. In addition, the

Section 78.7502 of the NRS, the Company may indemnify any person
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, except an
action by or in the right of the Company, by reason of the fact
that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as
a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses, including attorneys&#x2019; fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the
person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, if such
person: (i) is not liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the NRS; or
(ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful.
Further, the Company may indemnify any person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to
procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the
person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the

person: (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS Section 78.138; or (ii)
acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company. However, indemnification may not be made for any claim,
issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the Company or for
amounts paid in settlement to the Company, unless and only to the
extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or
other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application
that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as
the court deems proper. Under Section 78.751 of the NRS, to the
extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company
has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding subject to the Nevada indemnification
laws, or otherwise in defense of any such claim, issue or matter,
the Company is required to indemnify him or her against expenses,
including attorneys&#x2019; fees, actually and reasonably incurred
by him or her in connection with the defense. The Company&#x2019;s
