’s stockholders have the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote regarding the approval of the compensation disclosed in this Proxy Statement of the Company’s executive officers who are named in the Summary Compensation Table above (“named executive officers”). The Company has disclosed the compensation of the named executive officers pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC. We believe that our compensation policies for the named executive officers are designed to attract, motivate and retain talented executive officers and are aligned with the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders. This advisory stockholder vote, commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay vote,” gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to approve or not approve the compensation of the named executive officers that is disclosed in this Proxy Statement by voting for or against the following resolution (or by abstaining with respect to the resolution): RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Vuzix Corporation approve all of the compensation of the Company’s executive officers who are named in the Summary Compensation Table of the Company’s 2025 Proxy Statement, as such compensation is disclosed in the Company’s 2025 Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, which disclosure includes the Proxy Statement’s Summary Compensation Table and other executive compensation tables and related narrative disclosures. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee will review the voting results. To the extent there is a significant negative vote, we would communicate directly with stockholders to better understand the concerns that influenced the vote. The Board and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee would consider constructive feedback obtained through this process in making future decisions about executive compensation programs. However, your non-binding advisory votes described in this Proposal 3 will not be construed: (1) as overruling any decision by the Board of Directors, any Board committee or the Company relating to the compensation of the named executive officers, or (2) as creating or changing any fiduciary duties or other duties on the part of the Board of Directors, any Board committee or the Company.
