 discretion to vote on routine matters, which includes the ratification of the appointment of an independent registered public accounting firm. For all other matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting, brokers and certain banks and nominees will be unable to vote on your behalf if you do not instruct them how to vote your shares in the manner set forth on your voting instruction card (referred to as “broker non-votes”). Therefore, it is very important for you to provide voting instructions for each proposal.

If you hold your common stock through a bank, broker or other nominee and want to vote such shares at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee giving you the power to vote such shares. Please note that if you request a legal proxy, any previously executed proxy will be revoked, and your vote will not be counted unless you attend the Annual Meeting and vote or legally appoint another proxy to vote on your behalf.

#### Expenses of Solicitation of Proxies
We are making this solicitation and will pay the entire cost of preparing and distributing our proxy materials and soliciting votes . Proxies may also be solicited by some of our directors, officers and employees and consultants, without additional compensation, in person or by telephone.

#### Revocability of Proxies
Stockholders of Record. You may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by voting at the Annual Meeting or by delivering to the Company either a written revocation of a previously granted proxy or a properly submitted, later-dated proxy. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you revoke your proxy pursuant to one of the methods described in the immediately preceding sentence or vote in person thereat.

Beneficial Owners. If you hold your shares through a bank, broker or other nominee, you should contact such person prior to the time such voting instructions are exercised.

#### Communicating with Members of the Board
Stockholders may communicate with any of our directors by written mail addressed to the Secretary, SWK Holdings Corporation, 5956 Sherry Lane, Suite 650, Dallas, Texas 75225.
