 Our Corporate History

 Information Systems Associates, Inc. ("ISA")
was incorporated in Florida on May 31, 1994. Our original business operations consisted of consulting services for asset management of
large corporate data centers and the development and licensing of information technology ("IT") asset management software.
In late 2014, ISA entered negotiations with Duos Technologies, Inc. ("duostech ") for the purposes of executing a merger
between the two organizations (also known as a "reverse triangular merger"). Incorporated under the laws of Florida on November
30, 1990, duostech operated in various industry segments, specializing in the design, development and deployment of proprietary
technology applications and turn-key engineered systems. This transaction was completed on April 1, 2015, whereby duostech became
a wholly owned subsidiary of ISA. After the merger was completed, ISA changed its corporate name to Duos Technologies Group, Inc. The
Company, based in Jacksonville, Florida, oversees its wholly owned subsidiary, duostech and employs approximately 71 people and
is a technology company which designs, develops, deploys and operates intelligent technology solutions with a focus on software applications
and artificial intelligence ("AI"). The Company has a strong portfolio of intellectual property. The Company's headquarters
are located at 7660 Centurion Parkway, Suite 100, Jacksonville, Florida 32256 and main telephone number is (904) 296-2807.

 Overview

 The Company, operating under its brand name duos tech,
develops and deploys technology systems with focus on inspecting and evaluating moving vehicles. Its technology focus is within the Vision
Technology market sector and, more specifically, the Machine Vision subsector. Machine Vision companies provide imaging-based automatic
inspection and analysis for process control for industry with potential expansion into other markets. Duos has developed key technologies
over the past several years in software, industry specific hardware and artificial intelligence and has demonstrated industrial strength
usability of its systems supporting rail, logistics and intermodal businesses that streamline operations, improve safety and reduce costs.
Our team includes engineering subject matter expertise in hardware, software, and information technology as well as industry specific
applications of artificial intelligence also referred to as Expert Artificial Intelligence. We also have specific industry experts in
the rail industry on staff and as consultants.

 Duos is currently developing industry solutions for
its target markets which will address rail, trucking, aviation and other vehicle-based processes. Duos' initial offering, the Railcar
Inspection Portal (RIP), provides both freight and transit railroad customers and select government agencies the ability to conduct fully
remote railcar inspections of trains while they are moving at full speed. The RIP utilizes a variety of sophisticated optical, laser and
speed sensors to scan each passing railcar to create a high-resolution image-set of the top, sides and undercarriage. These images are
then processed with our edge data center using artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to identify safety and security defects on each
railcar. The algorithms are developed in conjunction with industrial application experts, in this case resident Railcar Mechanical Engineers,
to provide specific guidance in the analysis ("human in the loop"). Within seconds of the railcar passing through the RIP,
a detailed report is sent to the customer where they are able to take action on identified issues. This solution has the potential to
transform the railroad industry immediately increasing safety, improving efficiency and reducing costs. The Company has already deployed
this system with several Class 1 railroads and anticipates an increased demand from transit and other railroad customers along with selected
government agencies that operate and/or manage rail traffic. The Company has deployed RIPs in Canada, Mexico and the United States and
anticipates expanding this solution into Europe, Asia and the Middle East in coming years.

 The Company has also developed the Automated Logistics
Information System (ALIS) which automates gatehouse operations where transport trucks enter and exit large logistics and intermodal facilities.
This solution incorporates a similar set of sensors, data processing and artificial intelligence to streamline the customer's logistics
transactions and tracking and can also automate the security and safety inspection if called for. The Company has already deployed this
system with one large North American retailer and anticipates increased demand from other large retailers, railroad intermodal operators
and select government agencies that manage logistics and border crossing points. The Company is evaluating other solutions for moving
vehicles including aircraft, which could provide similar benefits in terms of safety and efficiency for required inspections as part of
an operations process.

 We have developed two proprietary solutions that operate
our software and artificial intelligence. cen traco
 is an Enterprise Information Management Software platform that consolidates data and events from multiple sources into a unified
and distributive user interface. Customized to the end user's Concept of Operations (CONOPS), it provides improved situational awareness
and data visualization for operational objectives compared to traditional manual inspections. true vue 360
 is our fully integrated platform that we utilize to develop and deploy Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms, including Machine
Learning, Computer Vision, Object Detection and Deep Neural Network-based processing for real-time applications.

 These same Artificial Intelligence applications have
begun to open up other opportunities for the Company to provide revenue producing solutions with potentially high market adoption.

 In 2021, the Company ended support of its IT Asset
Management (ITAM) solution which cataloged results for data center asset inventory and audit services. We are currently evaluating using
our current operations experience within "edge data centers" (as deployed for our Railcar Inspection Portal) to drive additional
revenues within other markets requiring this type of solution although no specific offering has been developed at this time.

 In the last quarter of 2022, the Company elected not
to renew a support contract for its Integrated Correctional Automation System (iCAS) for one customer. The Company subsequently sold its
iCAS assets to a buyer during the second quarter of 2023 for $165,000 via a convertible note.

 The year 2023 ushered in a new phase in the Company's
development. Although we continue to see an extension of challenges faced in 2022, we also see positive changes and opportunities for
our business that will be discussed in greater detail herein. They include:

 Introducing a new "subscription" based offering for access to data and images by a much broader target market including Class 1 railroads, railcar owners and lessors, and short-line railroads.

 Owning and operating a network of RIPs with multiple subscribers outside of the Company's traditional customer base.

 Selling customized RIPs to Class 1, short-line and other industrial companies where specialized applications or routes demand a bespoke solution.

 Railcar Inspection Portal ( r i p)

 Federal regulations require each railcar/train to
be inspected for mechanical defects prior to leaving a rail yard. Founded in 1934, the Association of American Railroads (AAR) is responsible
for setting the standards for the safety and productivity of the U.S./North American freight rail industry, and by extension, has established
the inspection parameters for the rail industry's rolling stock. Also known as the "Why Made" codes, the AAR established
approximately 110 inspection points under its guidelines for mechanical inspections.

 Under current practice, inspections are conducted
manually, a very labor intensive and inefficient process that only covers a select number of inspection points and can take several hours
per train. We believe our Railcar Inspection Portal has the potential to reduce this inspection to minutes while the train is moving at
speed, improving safety, reducing dwell time and optimizing maintenance.

 Our system combines high-definition image and data
capture technologies with our AI-based analytics applications that are typically installed on active tracks located between two rail yards.
We inspect railcars traveling through our inspection portal at speeds of up to 70 mph and report mechanical anomalies detected by our
system to the inbound train yard, well ahead of the train entering the yard.

 Currently, three Class 1 railroads and several transit
and international railroads use our r i p
 technology with one of those railroads broadly deploying the technology across its network.

 The Company continues to expand its detection capabilities
through the development and integration of additional sensor technologies to include laser, infrared, thermal, sound and x-ray to process
AI-based analytics of inspection points. Currently the Company has a high-reliability catalog of over 48 artificial intelligence algorithms
which can be integrated into the RIP to enhance mechanical anomalies detections. These detections support railroads in the active maintenance
and overall safety of their railcar fleet and networks.

 Markets

 We believe the opportunity for our Railcar Inspection
Portal business is substantial and continues to be our number one priority. We are currently engaged with the RIP solution with three
of seven Class 1 railroad operators with 13 systems already deployed across the North American rail network. Because of our early leadership
position, we have been able to accumulate experience and intellectual property that we believe would be time-consuming and expensive for
a new competitor to replicate. Furthermore, we believe we have the ability to upgrade and scale our solutions with additional technologies
in the future. We believe that the current market for our technologies is substantial. At the same time, we recognize that the technology
life cycle is fast and evolving. Potential competitors could move into this sector, and it is possible that some Class 1 railroads could
develop their own solutions that limit our total addressable market.

 In late 2022, the Company announced it will pursue
a subscription platform for the RIPs. Under this new model, the Company will build, own and operate its RIP product and offer the data
access for each portal to potential customers. This expansion of the RIP offering would potentially open up the addressable market to
other railroads, railcar owners, and car lessors. This shift increases the pool of potential customers by lowering the entry point for
the RIP and would reshape the Company's working capital needs to invest in the construction of a RIP ahead of customer revenue inflows.
The Company continues to explore this expansion on the long-term effects it may have on future cash flows.

 Another market we are pursuing as our second priority
is using our Automated Logistics and Information Systems solution ( a l is).
Potential customers include commercial retail logistics and intermodal operators, Class 1 rail intermodal operators that are moving large
amounts of automobiles, and U.S. Government agencies such as the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security. Today,
we currently have 20 production systems in use, but we believe the greenfield opportunity here to be substantial. We have identified over
900 lanes of traffic within nearly 300 facilities as potential business opportunities in the near-term.

 Currently, we are focused on the North American market,
but plan to expand globally in the future with interest from Europe, Asia and the Middle East.

 Patents and Trademarks

 The Company holds a number of patents and trademarks
for our technology solutions. We protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state, and common law rights, as well
as contractual restrictions. We control access to our proprietary technology by entering into confidentiality and invention assignment
agreements with all of our employees and contractors, and confidentiality agreements with third parties. We also actively engage in monitoring
activities with respect to infringing uses of our intellectual property by third parties.

 Specific Areas of Competition

 One of our primary commercial goals is to develop
innovative technology solutions and target potential "greenfield" market spaces in order to maximize our business footprint
and give us the ability to help define the market parameters for the future.

 Other companies that participate in the visual and
optical (laser) based railcar inspection systems market include Wabtec (Beena Vision), KLD Labs, WID, IEM, and Camlin Rail. Some Class
1 railroads have stated that they are developing "in-house" solutions. We believe that Duos has a significant competitive
advantage in that we have multiple years of deployment experience, have access to millions of images where our RIP has performed scans
with AI analysis and in-house industry expertise to train our systems and make identification of common problems more automated.

 Our Automated Logistics Information System (ALIS)
also represents an opportunity to expand into a mature market that we believe has a significant technology gap. While most facilities,
such as distribution centers, that process commercial trucks in and out have sophisticated software management applications for logistics
control, they have most often not implemented an advanced gatehouse automation solution. Historically, this category was referred to as
"Automated Gate Systems" or AGS. The purpose of AGS technology is to streamline entry in to and exit out of facilities.
The marketplace for this was mostly seaports and intermodal transfer facilities and was relatively expensive technology to deploy.

 Our Growth Strategy

 Vision

 The Company designs, develops, deploys and operates
intelligent technology solutions for inspecting and evaluating moving objects. Its technology application focus is within the rail and
intermodal markets which offers imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis for process control for industry with potential expansion
into other markets.

 Objectives

 Improve our operational and technical execution, customer satisfaction and implementation speed.

 Expand Rail Inspection Portal and Automated Logistics Information System with current and future customers in Rail, Logistics and U.S. Government sectors.

 Offer both CAPEX (one-time sale) and Subscription pricing models that seek to increase recurring revenue and improve profitability.

 Form strategic partnerships that improve market access and credibility.

 Improve policy, processes, and toolsets to become a viable platform for internal growth and for mergers and acquisitions.

 Thoughtfully execute mergers and acquisitions to expand offerings and/or capabilities.

 Promote a performance-based work force where employees enjoy their work and are incentivized to excel and innovate.

 Organic Growth

 Our organic growth strategy is to continue our focus
and prioritization in the rail, logistics and intermodal market space. In this regard, the Company has made significant changes in the
senior management team to include a new Chief Executive Officer, who joined the Company in September 2020 and has years of experience
successfully leading start-up and turn-around companies. In addition, a key account executive from one of Duos' competitors joined
the team during late 2022 to support the continued revenue growth of the business bringing significant sales experience focused around
the rail market. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company also brought on a new Chief Commercial Officer bringing significant experience
from the sales and operations aspects of the intermodal and power industries. In 2021, the Company also hired a new Chief Technology Officer
bringing 25 years of experience in designing and delivering value driven technologies. Our new CTO has already led the team through instrumental
changes to its approach to software and artificial intelligence development. The team also saw a change in CFO in late 2022 with the new
CFO bringing significant experience in growth for asset-intensive businesses which aligns with the subscription format the Company will
expand into.

 The new leadership team's
focus is to improve operational and technical execution which will in turn enable the commercial side of the business to expand RIP and
ALIS delivery into existing and new customers. Even though supply chain issues are expected to continue in 2024, the Company's
primary customers have indicated readiness to order more equipment and services based upon the Company's current performance and
the new subscription offerings expands the universe of potential customers.

 Additionally, the CEO has
directed that the Company make continual engineering and software upgrades to the RIP to meet anticipated Federal Railroad Association
(FRA) and Association of American Railroad (AAR) standards.

 Manufacturing and Assembly

 The Company designs and develops technology solutions
using a combination of in-house fabrication, commercial off-the-shelf technology, and outsourced manufacturing. On-site installations
are performed using a combination of in-house project managers and engineers and using third-party sub-contractors as needed. Throughout
the process of design, develop, deploy and operate, the Company maintains responsibility for all aspects. Our internal manufacturing operations
consist primarily of materials procurement, assembly, testing and quality control by our engineers. If not manufactured internally, we
use third-party manufacturing partners to produce our hardware related components and hardware products and we most often complete final
assembly, testing and quality control processes for these components and products. Our manufacturing processes are based on standardization
of components across product types, centralization of assembly and distribution centers, and a "build-to-order" methodology
in which products generally are built only after customers have placed firm orders. For most of our hardware products, we have existing
alternate sources of supply.

 For 2024 and possibly beyond, we expect to face significant
challenges with macro-economic impacts, specifically inflation and supply chain disruption. Although these started to be identified in
late 2021, we believe they continue to manifest themselves in ways that could challenge our business growth in the future. Specifically,
the ability to source key components and certain implementation services will dictate just how quickly the Company can meet desired installation
deadlines. In the industries in which we operate, the time from concept to contract can be substantial. Although we are now adapting to
these challenges, previous bids that have been submitted could be challenging to execute within the financial framework and execution
times originally envisaged. We continue to have dialogue with our customers regarding potential price increases and implementation delays,
but we may suffer some economic impacts as a result of this. Revenue recognition could be delayed as a result of these factors and profitability
could be impacted due to higher costs for materials and other services. The Company will continue to monitor the situation and update
shareholders as the situation unfolds.

 Research and Development

 The Company's R&D and software development
teams design and develop all systems and software applications with a combination of full-time in-house software engineers and outside
contractors. Internal development allows us to maintain technical control over the design and development of our products. Rapid technological
advances in hardware and software development, evolving standards in computer hardware and software technology, and changing customer
requirements characterize the markets in which we compete. We plan to continue to dedicate significant resources to research and development
efforts, including software development, to maintain and improve our current product and services offerings.

 Government Regulations

 The Company has worked with various agencies of the
federal government for more than 10 years including the Department of Homeland Security ("DHS"). When our solutions have been
deployed into these agencies, they meet specific requirements for certification, safety and security that are stipulated in requirements
and contract documents. The Company is currently competing for other government related work and strictly follows the rules and regulations
outlined in the Federal Acquisition Regulations.

 The Company's primary customers are all
governed by regulations related to the safe and effective transportation of goods and passengers, primarily by rail, but in future
scenarios by air, road and sea. While changes in the regulatory environment could impact the Company in future years, we believe any
changes will be overall positive for the Company. We continuously review potential changes in the regulatory environment and
maintain contact with key personnel at certain agencies including the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), the Transportation
Security Administration (TSA) as well as the DHS previously mentioned. We expect to develop similar relationships with governmental
agencies in target markets both in the US and internationally. At this time, we believe our offerings are complementary to the
current and evolving standards and that we will adapt to any new regulations as they are promulgated.

 Employees

 We have a current staff of 71 employees, of which
66 are full-time, the majority of which work in the Jacksonville area, none of which are subject to a collective bargaining agreement.
We have not experienced any work stoppages and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

 Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 Risks Related to Our Company and Business

 The nature of the technology management platforms
utilized by us are complex and highly integrated, and if we fail to successfully manage releases or integrate new solutions, it could
harm our revenues, operating income, and reputation.

 The technology platforms developed and designed by
us accommodate integrated applications that include our own developed technology and third-party technology, thereby substantially increasing
their functionality.

 Due to this complexity and the condensed development
cycles under which we operate, we may experience errors in our software, corruption or loss of our data, or unexpected performance issues
from time to time. For example, our solutions may face interoperability difficulties with software operating systems or programs being
used by our customers, or new releases, upgrades, fixes or the integration of acquired technologies may have unanticipated consequences
on the operation and performance of our other solutions. If we encounter integration challenges or discover errors in our solutions late
in our development cycle, it may cause us to delay our launch dates. Any major integration or interoperability issues or launch delays
could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, operating income and reputation.

 We face risks as a result of the coronavirus
(COVID-19 pandemic) lingering effects which could significantly disrupt our research and development, operations, sales, and financial
results.

 Our business has been adversely impacted by the effects
of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to global macroeconomic effects, the COVID-19 pandemic and related adverse public health developments
caused disruption and/or delays to our operations and sales activities. Our third-party manufacturers and our customers were disrupted
by worker absenteeism, quarantines and restrictions on employees' ability to work, office and factory closures, disruptions to ports
and other shipping infrastructure, border closures, or other travel or health-related restrictions. Depending on the magnitude of such
effects on our activities or the operations of our third-party manufacturers and third-party distributors, the supply of our products,
in some cases, continue to be delayed, which could continue to adversely affect our business, operations and customer relationships. In
addition, the pandemic or other disease outbreak have had and may continue to have over the longer term a material adverse effect on the
economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that will affect demand for our products and services
and impact our operating results. There can be no assurance that any decrease in sales resulting from the pandemic slowdown will be offset
by increased sales in subsequent periods. Although the magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business and operations
remains uncertain, the continued spread of COVID-19 and the related public health measures and travel and business restrictions may adversely
impact our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows. In addition, w e have experienced
and may in the future experience disruptions to our business operations resulting from quarantines, self-isolations, or other restrictions
on the ability of our employees to perform their jobs that may impact our ability to develop and design our products and services in a
timely manner or meet required milestones or customer commitments.

 We may be adversely affected
by the effects of inflation and supply chain disruption

 Our business operates in an environment
of long bid to contract award cycles. Our customer's bid requirements are such that firm pricing is expected on much or all of our
proposals and as such we must commit to certain commercial terms and conditions such as pricing. In addition, the Company hires employees
and contractors to perform most (if not all) of the work required to complete a contract. We are beginning to experience the impacts of
inflation upon previously forecasted costs including employees that require higher salaries, contractors demanding higher prices for jobs
and higher costs for materials necessary to complete contracts. While we endeavor to charge additional costs to our customers, in some
cases this may not be possible contractually and as a result our profitability may suffer as a result. Although we anticipate these effects
to be mitigated in the long term, we cannot be assured that this will be possible in all or any instances and as such our revenue, profitability
and growth prospects may suffer as a result of this.

 Current supply chain issues continue to extend deadlines
for shipment of key components used in our technology systems. The effect of this may be to delay revenue recognition. W e
have experienced and expect to continue to experience delays to our business operations resulting from lack of materials availability,
delays in securing key components such as video cameras requiring certain computer chips, and other material and personnel shortages that
may impact our ability to implement our products and services in a timely manner or meet required milestones or customer commitments.
In addition, higher costs for travel may adversely impact our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
This has made it necessary for the Company to order certain components prior to receiving a contract to ensure we have key components
available when necessary to satisfy future contract obligations.

 Our products and services may fail to keep pace
with rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards.

 The market in which we operate is characterized by
rapid, and sometimes disruptive, technological developments, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and enhancements
and changes in customer requirements. In addition, both traditional and new competitors are investing heavily in our market areas and
competing for customers. As next-generation video analytics technology continues to evolve, we must keep pace in order to maintain or
expand our market position. We continue to introduce new product offerings focused on automating mechanical and security inspections in
the rail, logistics, intermodal and government sectors as potential revenue drivers. If we are not able to successfully add staff resources
with sufficient technical skills to develop and bring these new products to market in a timely manner, achieve market acceptance of our
products and services or identify new market opportunities for our products and services, our business and results of operations may be
materially and adversely affected.

 The market opportunity for our products and
services may not develop in the ways that we anticipate.

 The demand for our products and services could change
quickly and in ways that we may not anticipate. Our operating results may be adversely affected if the market opportunity for
our products and services does not develop in the ways that we anticipate or if other technologies become more accepted or standard in
our industry or disrupt our technology platforms.

 Our revenues are dependent on general economic
conditions and the willingness of enterprises to invest in technology.

 We believe that operators in the business sectors
we are focused on continue to be cautious about sustained economic growth and seek to maintain or improve profitability through cost control
and constrained spending. While our core technologies are designed to address cost reduction, other factors may cause companies to delay
or cancel capital projects, including the implementation of our products and services. In addition, the business sectors in which we are
focused are under financial pressure to reduce capital investment which may make it more difficult for us to close large contracts in
the immediate future. We believe there is a growing market trend toward more customers exploring operating expense models as opposed to
capital expense models for procuring technology. We believe the market trend toward operating expense models will continue as customers
seek ways of reducing their overhead and other costs. All of the foregoing may result in continued pressure on our ability to increase
our revenue and may potentially create competitive pricing pressures and price erosion. If these or other conditions limit our ability
to grow revenue or cause our revenue to decline our operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

 Our working capital profile may shift over time
to require additional investment.

 Historically, the Company has leveraged significant
milestone payments at a contract onset to fund the purchase of required materials. Expansion into a subscription format would allow the
Company to potentially transact faster and more routinely with a larger customer base than it has previously had. In certain instances
where the Company would build, own and operate its own assets, it may require a different working capital and capitalization strategy
whereby the Company will be required to make upfront investments without significant customer milestone payments to offset the investment.
The Company believes that this presents a short-term capital risk but will, long-term, improve the overall performance of the business.

 Some of our competitors are larger and have
greater financial and other resources than we do.

 Some of our product offerings compete and will compete
with other similar products from our competitors. These competitive products could be marketed by well-established, successful companies
that possess greater financial, marketing, distributional, personnel and other resources than we possess. In certain instances, competitors
with greater financial resources also may be able to enter a market in direct competition with us offering attractive marketing tools
to encourage the sale of products that compete with our products or present cost features that our target end users may find attractive.

 We have a history of losses and our growth plans
may lead to additional losses and negative operating cash flows in the future.

 Our accumulated deficit was approximately $64 million
as of December 31, 2023. Our operating losses may continue as we continue to expend resources to further develop and enhance our technology
offering, to complete prototyping for proof-of-concept, obtain regulatory clearances or approvals as required, expand our business
development activities and finance capabilities and conduct further research and development. We also expect to experience negative cash
flow in the short-term until our revenues and margins increase at a rate greater than our expenses, which may not occur.

 We may be unable to protect our intellectual
property, which could impair our competitive advantage, reduce our revenue, and increase our costs.

 Our success and ability to compete depend in part
on our ability to maintain the proprietary aspects of our technologies and products. We rely on a combination of trade secrets, patents,
copyrights, trademarks, confidentiality agreements, and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, but these measures
may provide only limited protection. We customarily enter into written confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our employees,
consultants, customers, manufacturers, and other recipients of information about our technologies and products and assignment of invention
agreements with our employees and consultants. We may not always be able to enforce these agreements and may fail to enter into any such
agreement in every instance when appropriate. We license from third-parties certain technology used in and for our products. These third-party
licenses are granted with restrictions; therefore, such third-party technology may not remain available to us on terms beneficial to us.
Our failure to enforce and protect our intellectual property rights or obtain from third parties the right to use necessary technology
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition, the laws of some foreign
countries do not protect proprietary rights as fully as do the laws of the United States.

 Patents may not be issued from the patent applications
that we have filed or may file in the future. Our issued patents may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, and claims of our patents
may not be of sufficient scope or strength, or issued in the proper geographic regions, to provide meaningful protection or any commercial
advantage. We have registered certain of our trademarks in the United States and other countries. We cannot assure you that we will obtain
registrations of principal or other trademarks in key markets in the future. Failure to obtain registrations could compromise our ability
to protect fully our trademarks and brands and could increase the risk of challenge from third parties to our use of our trademarks and
brands.

 We may be required to incur substantial expenses
and divert management attention and resources in defending intellectual property litigation against us.

 We cannot be certain that our technologies and products
do not and will not infringe on issued patents or other proprietary rights of others. While we are not currently subject to any infringement
claim, any future claim, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of resources, including the
attention of management, and could require us to enter into royalty and licensing agreements, any of which could have a material adverse
effect on our business. We may not be able to obtain such licenses on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, or the terms of any offered
licenses may be unacceptable to us. If forced to cease using such technology, we may be unable to develop or obtain alternate technology.
Accordingly, an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding, or failure to obtain necessary licenses, could prevent
us from manufacturing, using, or selling certain of our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results, and financial condition.

 Furthermore, parties making such claims could secure
a judgment awarding substantial damages, as well as injunctive or other equitable relief, which could effectively block our ability to
make, use, or sell our products in the United States or abroad. Such a judgment could have a material adverse effect on our business,
operating results, and financial condition. In addition, we are obligated under certain agreements to indemnify the other party in connection
with infringement by us of the proprietary rights of third parties. In the event that we are required to indemnify parties under these
agreements, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 We may incur substantial expenses and divert
management resources in prosecuting others for their unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights.

 Other companies, including our competitors, may develop
technologies that are similar or superior to our technologies, duplicate our technologies, or design around our patents, and may have
or obtain patents or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit, or interfere with our ability to make, use, or sell our products.
Although we do not have operations outside North America at this time, we may compete for contracts in other countries in the future.
Effective intellectual property protection may be unavailable, or limited, in some foreign countries in which we may do business, such
as China. Unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise use aspects of our technologies and products that we regard as proprietary.
Our means of protecting our proprietary rights in the United States or abroad may not be adequate or competitors may independently develop
similar technologies. If our intellectual property protection is insufficient to protect our intellectual property rights, we could face
increased competition in the market for our technologies and products.

 Should any of our competitors file patent applications
or obtain patents that claim inventions also claimed by us, we may choose to participate in an interference proceeding to determine the
right to a patent for these inventions, because our business would be harmed if we fail to enforce and protect our intellectual property
rights. Even if the outcome is favorable, this proceeding could result in substantial cost to us and disrupt our business.

 In the future, we also may need to file lawsuits to
enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights
of others. This litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 If we are unable to apply technology effectively
in driving value for our clients through technology-based solutions or gain internal efficiencies and effective internal controls through
the application of technology and related tools, our operating results, client relationships, growth and compliance programs could be
adversely affected.

 Our future success depends, in part, on our ability
to anticipate and respond effectively to the threat and opportunity presented by new technology disruption and developments. These may
include new software applications or related services based on artificial intelligence, machine learning, or robotics. We may be exposed
to competitive risks related to the adoption and application of new technologies by established market participants or new entrants, start-up
companies and others. These new entrants are focused on using technology and innovation, including artificial intelligence, to simplify
and improve the client experience, increase efficiencies, alter business models and effect other potentially disruptive changes in the
industries in which we operate. We must also develop and implement technology solutions and technical expertise among our employees that
anticipate and keep pace with rapid and continuing changes in technology, industry standards, client preferences and internal control
standards. We may not be successful in anticipating or responding to these developments on a timely and cost-effective basis and our ideas
may not be accepted in the marketplace. Additionally, the effort to gain technological expertise and develop new technologies in our business
requires us to incur significant expenses. If we cannot offer new technologies as quickly as our competitors, or if our competitors develop
more cost-effective technologies or product offerings, we could experience a material adverse effect on our operating results, client
relationships, growth and compliance programs.

 We are dependent on information technology networks
and systems to securely process, transmit and store electronic information and to communicate among our locations around North America
and with our people, clients, partners and vendors. As the breadth and complexity of this infrastructure continues to grow, including
as a result of the use of mobile technologies, social media and cloud-based services, the risk of security breaches and cyberattacks increases.
Such breaches could lead to shutdowns or disruptions of or damage to our systems and those of our clients, alliance partners and vendors,
and unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential information, including personal data. In the past, we have experienced data security
breaches resulting from unauthorized access to our and our service providers' systems, which to date have not had a material impact
on our operations, however, there is no assurance that such impacts will not be material in the future.

 In providing services and solutions to clients, we
may be required to manage, utilize and store sensitive or confidential client data, possibly including personal data, and we anticipate
these activities to increase, including through the use of artificial intelligence, the internet of things and analytics. Unauthorized
disclosure of sensitive or confidential client data, whether through systems failure, employee negligence, fraud, misappropriation, or
other intentional or unintentional acts, could damage our reputation, could cause us to lose clients and could result in significant financial
exposure. Similarly, unauthorized access to our or through our or our service providers' information systems or those we develop
for our clients, whether by our employees or third parties, including a cyberattack by computer programmers, hackers, members of organized
crime and/or state-sponsored organizations, who continuously develop and deploy viruses, ransomware or other malicious software programs
or social engineering attacks, could result in negative publicity, significant remediation costs, legal liability, damage to our reputation
and government sanctions and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Cybersecurity threats are constantly expanding
and evolving, thereby increasing the difficulty of detecting and defending against them and maintaining effective security measures and
protocols.

 We depend on key personnel who would be difficult
to replace, and our business plan will likely be harmed if we lose their services or cannot hire additional qualified personnel.

 Our success depends substantially on the efforts and
abilities of our senior management and certain key personnel. The competition for qualified management and key personnel, especially engineers,
is intense. Although we maintain non-competition and non-disclosure covenants with all our key personnel, we do not have employment agreements
with most of them. The loss of services of key employees, or the inability to hire, train, and retain key personnel, especially engineers
and technical support personnel, could delay the development and sale of our products, disrupt our business, and interfere with our ability
to execute our business plan.

 Due to our dependence on a limited number of
customers, we are subject to a concentration of credit risk.

 For the year ended December 31, 2023, three
customers accounted for 48%, 30%, and 11% of revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2022, four customers accounted for
42%, 18%, 14% and 14% of revenues. In all cases, there are no minimum contract values stated. Each contract covers an agreement to
deliver a rail inspection portal which, once accepted, must be paid in full, with 30% or more being due and payable prior to
delivery. The balances of the contracts are for service and maintenance which is paid annually in advance with revenues recorded
ratably over the contract period.

 As of December 31, 2023, two customers accounted
for 83%, and 11% of our accounts receivable. In the case of insolvency by one of our significant customers, accounts receivable with
respect to that customer might not be collectible, might not be fully collectible, or might be collectible over longer than normal
terms, each of which could adversely affect our financial position. Additionally, our largest customer accounted for
approximately 48% of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023. This concentration of credit risk makes us
more vulnerable economically. The loss of any of these customers could materially reduce our revenues and net income, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business.

 Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 There is currently not an active liquid trading market for the Company's
common stock.

 Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market
tier under the symbol "DUOT". However, there is currently limited active trading in our common stock. Although there are periodic
volume spikes from time to time, we cannot give an assurance that a consistent, active trading market will develop. If an active market
for our common stock develops, there is a significant risk that our stock price may fluctuate in the future in response to any of the
following factors, some of which are beyond our control:

 Variations in our quarterly operating results;

 Announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts' expectations;

 General economic downturns;

 Sales of large blocks of our common stock; and

 Announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments.

 You may experience dilution of your ownership
interest due to future issuances of our securities.

 We are in a capital-intensive business, and we may
not have sufficient funds to finance the growth of our business or to support our projected capital expenditures. As a result, we may
require additional funds from future equity or debt financings, including potential sales of preferred shares or convertible debt, to
complete the development of new projects and pay the general and administrative costs of our business. We may in the future issue our
previously authorized and unissued securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of holders of our common stock. We
are currently authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. We may also issue additional
shares of common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in future public offerings or private
placements for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes. The future issuance of a substantial number of shares of common
stock into the public market, or the perception that such issuance could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of
our common shares. A decline in the price of our common stock could make it more difficult to raise funds through future offerings of
our common stock or securities convertible into common stock.

 Our Board of Directors may issue and fix the
terms of shares of our Preferred Stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our Common
Stock or any change in control of our Company.

 Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance
of up to 10,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock, with such designations rights and preferences as may be determined
from time to time by the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue shares of preferred
stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of
the holders of our common stock. In the event of such issuances, the preferred stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a
method of discouraging, delaying, or preventing a change in control of our Company.

 We do not expect to pay dividends and investors
should not buy our common stock expecting to receive dividends.

 We do not anticipate that we will declare or pay any
dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, you will only realize an economic gain on your investment in our common stock if the
price appreciates. You should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Accordingly, our stockholders will not
realize a return on their investment unless the trading price of our common stock appreciates, which is uncertain and unpredictable. In
addition, because we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less attractive, which may cause us to have trouble raising additional
funds which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.

 Our operating results are likely to fluctuate from period to period.

 We anticipate that there may be significant fluctuations in our
future operating results. Potential causes of future fluctuations in our operating results may include:

 Period-to-period fluctuations in financial results

 Issues in manufacturing products

 Unanticipated potential product liability claims

 The introduction of technological innovations or new commercial products by competitors

 The entry into, or termination of, key agreements, including key strategic alliance agreements

 The initiation of litigation to enforce or defend any of our intellectual property rights

 Regulatory changes

 Failure of any of our products to achieve commercial success

 We are subject to the Florida anti-takeover provisions, which may
prevent you from exercising a vote on business combinations, mergers or otherwise.

 As a Florida corporation, we are subject to certain
anti-takeover provisions that apply to public corporations under Florida law. Pursuant to Section 607.0901 of the Florida Business Corporation
Act, or the Florida Act, a publicly held Florida corporation, under certain circumstances, may not engage in a broad range of business
combinations or other extraordinary corporate transactions with an interested shareholder without the approval of the holders of two-thirds
of the voting shares of the corporation (excluding shares held by the interested shareholder).

 An interested shareholder is defined as a person who
together with affiliates and associates beneficially owns more than 15% of a corporation's outstanding voting shares. We have not
made an election in our amended Articles of Incorporation to opt out of Section 607.0901.

 In addition, we are subject to Section 607.0902 of
the Florida Act which prohibits the voting of shares in a publicly held Florida corporation that are acquired in a control-share acquisition
unless (i) our board of directors approved such acquisition prior to its consummation or (ii) after such acquisition, in lieu of prior
approval by our board of directors, the holders of a majority of the corporation's voting shares, exclusive of shares owned by officers
of the corporation, employee directors or the acquiring party, approve the granting of voting rights as to the shares acquired in the
control-share acquisition. A control-share acquisition is defined as an acquisition that immediately thereafter entitles the acquiring
party to 20% or more of the total voting power in an election of directors.

 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

 None.

 Item 1C. Cybersecurity

 Risk Management

 We have in place certain infrastructure, systems,
policies, and procedures that are designed to proactively and reactively address circumstances that arise when an unexpected cybersecurity
incident occurs. These include processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. Our internal
procedures dictate that we evaluate and evolve our security measures as appropriate. Identifying, assessing, and managing cybersecurity
risk is integrated into our overall internal controls approach. Additionally, we have in place cybersecurity and data privacy policies
designed to (a) respond to new requirements in global privacy laws and (b) prevent, detect, respond to, mitigate and recover from identified
and significant cybersecurity threats. Refer to "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in this annual report on Form 10-K for additional
information about cybersecurity-related risks.

 Governance

 During the first quarter of 2024, information security
matters reporting, including managing and assessing risks from cybersecurity threats, have been established under the oversight of the
Audit Committee of the Board or the "Audit Committee." The Audit Committee also reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of
the Company's information security policies and practices and the internal controls regarding information security risks. Our security
efforts are managed by a team of IT professionals who oversee the daily responsibilities of managing cybersecurity identification and
threats. Going forward, the Audit Committee receives regular information security updates from management, including our Chief Technology
Officer, who the board designated as the Chief Information Security Officer. The management team has established a quarterly rhythm to
keep the Board and Audit Committee apprised of identified risks, ongoing risk management and changes in procedure to ensure transparency
in the Company's governance over cybersecurity.

 Item 2. Properties.

 On July 26, 2021, the Company entered a new operating lease agreement
of office and warehouse combination space of 40,000 square feet with the lease commencing on November 1, 2021 and ending May 31, 2032,
This additional space allows for resource growth and engineering efforts for operations before deploying to the field. The rent for the
first twelve months of the term were calculated as rentable base space on 30,000 square feet. The rent is subject to an annual escalation
of 2.5%, beginning December 1, 2022. The Company made a security deposit payment in the amount of $600,000 on July 26, 2021. The Company
has applied the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02") in the fourth quarter of 2021

 The Company now has a total of office and warehouse
space of 40,000 square feet.

 Rental expense for the office lease during 2023 and
2022 was $781,638 and $782,591, respectively.

 Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

 From time to time, we may be involved in litigation
relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We are currently not involved in any litigation that
we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding,
inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to
the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our Company, our common
stock, any of our subsidiaries or any of our Company's or our subsidiaries' officers or directors in their capacities as such,
in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

 Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

 Market Information

 Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Markets
("Nasdaq") under the trading symbol "DUOT".

 Authorized Capital

 The Company is authorized to issue an aggregate number
of 510,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 10,000,000 shares are blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 500,000,000
shares are common stock, $0.001 par value per share.

 Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 Our board of directors has designated 500,000 of the
10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we have no
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

 Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 Our board of directors has designated 15,000 of the
10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

 Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock was convertible at any time at the holder's option into a number of shares of common stock equal to $1,000 divided by the
conversion price of $7.00 per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we could not effect any conversion of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock, with certain exceptions, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock (together with such holder's affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such
holder's affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the
purchaser, 9.99%) of the shares of our common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. Holders of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock voted on an as converted basis on all matters on which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote, subject to beneficial
ownership limitations. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there are 0 and 0 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding,
respectively.

 Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

 On February 26, 2021, the Company entered into
a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain existing investors in the Company (the "Purchasers").
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers purchased 4,500 shares of a newly authorized Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the
"Series C Convertible Preferred Stock"), and the Company received proceeds of $4,500,000. The Purchase Agreement contains
customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. As of December 31, 2023 and
2022, there are 0 and 0 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

 Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company was
required to hold a meeting of shareholders at the earliest practical date, and such meeting occurred on July 15, 2021. Nasdaq Marketplace
Rule 5635(d) limits the number of shares of common stock (or securities that are convertible into common stock) that can be issued in
a transaction other than a public offering without shareholder approval. The rule required shareholder approval for us to issue shares
of common stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock which equal 20% or more of our Common Stock outstanding before the issuance at
a price less than the lower of the price immediately preceding the signing of the Purchase Agreement or the average of the price for the
five trading days immediately preceding such signing. We received the shareholder approval at the meeting held on July 15, 2021.

 In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company
also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Purchasers. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed
with the SEC a registration statement covering the resale by the Purchasers of the shares of common stock into which the shares of Series
C Convertible Preferred Stock were convertible. The Company caused the registration statement to be declared effective on June 3, 2021.
The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights and obligations
of the parties.

series of shares entitled to vote with the common stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders
of the Company. Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock had 172 votes (subject to adjustment); provided that in no event may
a holder of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock be entitled to vote a number of shares in excess of such holder's Beneficial Ownership
Limitation (as defined in the Certificate of Designation). Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible, at any
time and from time to time, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the Beneficial Ownership

time, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) determined
by dividing the stated value of such share ($1,000) by the conversion price, which is $3.00 (subject to adjustment). The Company shall
not effect any conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of
the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion sought by the holder such holder (together
with such holder's Attribution Parties (as defined in the Certificate of Designation)) would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or
upon election by a holder, 19.99%) of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance
of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation"). All holders of the Series
D Preferred Stock have elected the 19.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company reserves and keeps available out of its authorized
and unissued Common Stock, solely for the issuance upon the conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, such a number of shares

 The November Purchase Agreement also provides that
the Company will not, with certain exceptions, sell or issue common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the November Purchase

 Series F Convertible Preferred Stock

 On August 1, 2023, the Company entered into a

proceeds of $5,000,000. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights
and obligations of the parties.

 The Company's Board of Directors designated 5,000
shares as the Series F Preferred Stock. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock was convertible, at any time and from time to time, at
the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the beneficial ownership limitation described below)
determined by dividing the stated value of such share ($1,000) by the conversion price, which was $6.20 (subject to adjustment). The Company,
however, shall not effect any conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock, and the holder shall not have the right to convert any portion
of the Series F Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion sought by the holder such holder (together with
such holder's Attribution Parties (as defined in the Certificate of Designation)) would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or upon
election by a holder, 19.99%) of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares
of common stock issuable upon such conversion. The purchasers of the Series F Preferred Stock elected that their ownership limitation
would be 19.99%.

 The holders of the Series F Preferred Stock, the
holders of the common stock and the holders of any other class or series of shares entitled to vote with the common stock shall vote
together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock has
161 votes (subject to adjustment); provided that in no event may a holder of Series F Preferred Stock be entitled to vote a number
of shares in excess of such holder's ownership limitation.

 The Company also agreed that it would not, with certain
exceptions, sell or issue common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement relating to the Series F Preferred
Stock) on or prior to December 31, 2023 that entitled any person to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share less
than the then conversion price of the Series F Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders. As a result of that agreement, upon
the issuance of 2,500 shares of Series E Preferred Stock (which have a conversion price of $3.00 per share) on November 10, 2023, the
holders exchanged their 5,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock for 5,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

Stock issued and outstanding.

 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 This Form 10-K and other reports filed by the Company
from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") contain or may contain forward-looking statements
and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company's management as well as estimates
and assumptions made by Company's management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the filings, the words "anticipate,"
"believe," "estimate," "expect," "future," "intend," "plan," or
the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company's management identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties,
assumptions, and other factors, including the risks contained in the "Risk Factors" section of this Annual Report on Form
10-K, relating to the Company's industry, the Company's operations and results of operations, and any businesses that the
Company may acquire. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

 Although the Company believes that the expectations
reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance,
or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements.

 Our consolidated financial statements are prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These accounting principles require
us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are
reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates,
judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements
as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our consolidated financial statements would be
affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment
of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management's judgment in its application. There
are also areas in which management's judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere
in this report.

 Overview

 We intend for this discussion to provide
information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements,
and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles affect our financial statements.

 Plan of Operation

 The Company's growth strategy includes expansion
of its technology base through organic development efforts, strategic partnerships, and strategic acquisitions where appropriate. The
Company provides its broad range of technology solutions with an emphasis on the Vision Technology market sector and, more specifically,
the Machine Vision subsector. Machine Vision companies provide imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis for process control for
industry with potential expansion into other markets. Duos is currently developing industry solutions for its target markets which will
address rail, trucking, aviation and other vehicle-based processes. Duos' initial offering, the Railcar Inspection Portal (RIP), provides
both freight and transit railroad customers and select government agencies the ability to conduct fully automated railcar inspections
of trains while they are moving at full speed.

 Specifically, based upon
the current and anticipated business growth, the Company is investing in resources to focus on execution within its target markets. We
continue to evaluate key requirements within those markets, our go-to-market strategy and add development resources to allow us to compete
for additional projects to drive additional revenue growth.

 Prospects and Outlook

 The Company's focus
is to improve operational and technical execution which, we believe, will in turn enable the commercial side of the business to expand
RIP and ALIS delivery into existing customers and to expand and diversify our current customer base. The Company's primary customers
have indicated readiness to order more equipment and services should the Company execute as expected on key deliverables. With the Company
working toward a subscription platform approach and its expansion of its artificial intelligence offering, this will also open up additional
commercial avenues to the Company. Historically, the Company has been focused on large, one-time sales with the subscription opportunities
representing an expanded addressable market with emphasis on recurring revenues.

 Additionally, the Company
is making engineering and software upgrades to the RIP to meet anticipated Federal Railroad Association (FRA) and Association of American
Railroad (AAR) standards. These upgrades will continue to be released throughout 2024 and are expected to drive revenue growth this year
and beyond.

 The
Company is expanding its focus in the rail industry to encompass passenger transportation and was awarded a large, multi-year contract
with a national rail carrier. The Company anticipates that it will install a two-RIP solution for the carrier in 2024, with a long-term
services agreement commencing upon delivery of the system.

 Although the Company's prospects for future
revenue growth are anticipated to be favorable, investing in our securities involves risk and careful consideration should be made before
deciding to purchase our securities. There are many risks that affect our business and results of operations, some of which are beyond
our control and unexpected macro events can have a severe impact on the business. Please see the risk factors identified in "Item
1A – Risk Factors" elsewhere in this Annual Report.

 The following discussion should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements included in this report.

 For the year ended December 31, 2023 compared

 For the full year 2023, there was a 50% decrease in
overall revenues compared to 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by the substantial completion of two freight RIP projects, alongside
ongoing procurement and manufacturing for our transit-focused RIPs in 2022. However, in 2023, despite progress into the advanced stages
of procurement and manufacturing for the transit-focused RIPs, customer-driven delays beyond the Company's control arose during
the ongoing production of the two high-speed transit-focused RIPs and thus resulted in timing delays of the overall project delivery timeline
shifting anticipated revenues into 2024. For the full year 2023, there was a small increase in services and consulting revenues as there
were one-time services performed in 2022, related to major site maintenance and repairs for a single customer which did not occur in 2023.
Underlying recurring revenues climbed by approximately 23% on a year-over-year basis. This growth is fueled by the expansion of service
contracts following the completion of new portals in early 2023, coupled with the deployment of AI services deployed with several customers.
The Company is focusing on increasing its business from services and the increase is the result of new contracts for existing and new
systems which the Company anticipates will continue growing throughout 2024 and beyond. The Company continues to navigate delays outside
of the Company's control related to the ongoing production and installation of our two high-speed transit-focused Railcar Inspection Portals.
Management cautions that because of the delays in anticipated start dates, certain installations may produce revenues towards the end
of 2024. These deferrals resulted in a slightly lower revenue growth performance than originally anticipated. However, the bulk of these
deferred revenues are expected to be reported in 2024.

 While customer-driven delays in the installation of
our high-speed transit-focused Railcar Inspection Portals have impacted revenue growth timing year-over-year, the Company's capital structure
remains resilient, allowing us to pursue large projects despite unexpected delays. It should be noted that the Company recently increased
its working capital to account for an increase in pre-contract procurement activities to avoid a slowdown in revenues caused by delays
in receiving certain components as had been the case in previous years. The Company undertook a major review of operations during 2021
and made significant changes in staffing including additional engineering staff and revamping its software development and Artificial
Intelligence staffing. These efforts have yielded benefits throughout 2022, 2023 and beyond.

 Overall, in 2023, the Company achieved notable success
in advancing procurement and manufacturing for its transit-focused RIPs, expanding service contracts, and securing new AI contracts and
growing its AI portfolio, including the announcement of its inaugural subscription customer. Recurring revenue from services and consulting
continues to grow and is expected to contribute significantly to future revenue streams, bolstered by new long-term contracts with existing
customers expected to commence in the coming months.

 Cost of revenues largely comprises equipment, certain fixed labor and overhead
necessary to support the implementation of new systems and support and maintenance of existing systems. Cost of revenues on technology
systems decreased during the period compared to the equivalent period in 2022 in-line with the decline in project revenues. The decline
in costs generally follows the same trend as project revenues year-over-year as a result of an overall timing difference of major project
work related to the substantial completion of two freight Railcar Inspection Portals and subsequent progression of procurement and manufacturing
for the transit-focused RIPs compared to the equivalent period in 2023 where the Company continued to progress into the advanced stages
of procurement and manufacturing of the transit-focused RIPs, which it anticipates completing during 2024.

 These internal costs are being recognized against
project and support revenues with a similar reduction in costs previously recognized for research and development, engineering and internal
support. The project costs reflect subsequent allocations of fixed costs related to the staff and departmental costs associated with procurement,
manufacturing and installation of RIP installations. As such, in 2023, this fixed component contributed to a negative margin on the Technology
systems revenues. In concert with this, there is a continued focus on construction costs and savings through efficiency, but the Company
has elected to retain its key employees in anticipation of expected sales growth in technology systems and services in 2024 and beyond.

 Cost of revenues decreased on services and
consulting year-over-year. The decrease in costs was a result of one-time
services performed in 2022, related to major site maintenance and repairs for a single customer slightly offset by additional services
costs related to the completion of two new freight portals in early 2023. The Company continues to put into service additional artificial
intelligence algorithms and maintenance and support services which are high margin and represent only marginal increases in the requisite
costs to deliver these services.

 Gross margin showed a decrease for the year ended
December 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. As noted above, the decline in margin was a direct result of an increased level
of business activity the Company recognized in 2022 related to the delivery of two freight portals and the progression of the transit-focused
RIPs compared to the activity in 2023 as well as project delays that were experienced in the latter half of 2023. The business activity
in 2023 consisted primarily of continued progression into the advanced stages of procurement and manufacturing for the transit-focused
RIPs. The Company began to recognize revenue and profit on those activities in accordance with its revenue recognition policy. The recognition
of the revenue and subsequent profit from these projects, as well as underlying services and maintenance revenues from existing and recently
completed projects, coupled with the previously mentioned fixed departmental costs resulted in a gross margin of approximately 18%. By
comparison for the full-year 2022, the Company had increased business activity from a handful of projects primarily related to the substantial
completion of two freight RIPs along with significant progress made on the procurement and manufacturing of our two transit-focused RIPs.
The recognition of the revenue and subsequent profit from these major projects, as well as underlying services and maintenance revenues
from existing projects, resulted in a 32% gross margin in 2022.

 Overall
operating expenses were higher by 10% in 2023 as compared to the full-year 2022. There was a 12% increase in sales and marketing
related to increased investment into the capability of the commercial team, including the addition of professionals with extensive
experience and leadership in the rail industry. Research and development costs saw a 10% uptick during the year, driven by the
increased personnel costs related to the departments allocated to R&D. Additionally, a 10% increase in general and
administration costs was influenced by several factors, including non-cash amortization charges associated with roughly 400,000
share options that were issued during 2023 as well as an increase in incentive programs tied to certain 2022 performance targets.
These efforts reflect a focus on employee retention and to drive higher performance and attract and retain better quality resources
in a tight labor market. The Company still faces some pressure on existing staff compensation as a result of inflation in prior
years but remains focused to manage and stabilize administrative costs without interruption to customer service. Other factors
driving the increase in general and administration costs include an increase in depreciation charges linked to capitalized AI
development cost for third party support to expand Duos' AI catalog to over 40 algorithms by the end of 2023. Lastly the
Company saw increased general and administration costs related to a financing deal which was ultimately not consummated with a bank
as well as additional legal and consulting fees related to intellectual property and patents documentation and support. These
changes in expenses reflect the Company's ongoing efforts to invest in talent, expand capabilities, and drive growth in line with
its operating plan.

 Loss From Operations

 The losses from operations for the years ended December
31, 2023 and 2022 were $11,446,566 and $6,865,149, respectively. The increase in losses from operations during the year was the result
of declining system revenues stemming from a decrease in business activity as well as project delays experienced in the latter half of
2023 that were beyond the Company's control. The Company has continued to face inflation and supply chain pressures during 2023
and, as normal course of business, has worked to balance these impacts through management of customer contracts and cost control efforts.

 Interest Expense

 Interest expense for the years ended December 31,
2023 and 2022 was $7,159 and $9,191, respectively. The reduction in interest expense was primarily attributed to the extinguishment of
equipment financing payables in 2023 that were present during 2022.

 Other Income

 Other income for the years ended December 31, 2023
and 2022 was $212,007 and $9,557, respectively. The increase is mainly attributable to the Company's sale of its iCAS assets to a purchaser
in the second quarter of 2023 for $165,000 through a convertible note.

 Net Loss

 The net loss for the years ended December 31, 2023
and 2022 was $11,241,718 and $6,864,783, respectively. The increase in net loss is primarily attributable to the decrease in project activity
in 2023 compared to 2022, offset slightly with an increase in the Company's recurring services and consulting. Net loss per common
share was $1.56 and $1.11 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

 As of December 31, 2023, the Company has a cash balance
of $2,441,842 and an Accounts Receivable balance of $1,462,463.

 Net cash used in operating activities for the years
ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $8,746,564 and $7,873,307, respectively. The increase in net cash used in operations for the year
ended December 31, 2023 was the result of expenditures related to current projects as previously discussed as well as expenditures related
to projects which the Company anticipates will be completed in 2024. In addition, there are several changes in assets and liabilities
that increased the use of cash in operations including decreases in accounts payable, accrued expenses and the operating lease obligation.

 Net cash used in investing activities for the years
ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $1,093,909 and $644,888, respectively. The Company continued to invest in computing, lab equipment,
internal use software and artificial intelligence detections development as reflected in the year-over-year increase in 2023.

 Net cash provided in financing activities for the
years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $11,161,223 and $8,745,567, respectively. Cash flows provided by financing activities during
2023 were primarily attributable to gross proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock to shareholders in the amount of $11,500,000,
offset by $25,797 in issuance costs. 2023 marked an increase from 2022 financing activities of $8,745,567.

 During 2023, we funded our operations through the sale of our equity
(or equity linked) securities, and through revenues generated and cash received from ongoing project execution, services and associated
maintenance revenues. As of March 27, 2024, we have cash on hand of approximately $3,329,753 after an equity capital raise in March 2024
which provided net proceeds of $2,745,000. We have approximately $165,500 in monthly lease and other mandatory payments, not including
payroll and ordinary expenses which are due monthly.

 On a long-term basis, our liquidity is dependent
on the continuation and expansion of operations and receipt of revenues. Our current capital and access to further capital and revenues
are sufficient to fund such expansion we are now less dependent on timely payments by our customers for projects and work in process,
however we expect such timely payments to continue. Material cash requirements will be satisfied within the normal course of business
including substantial upfront payments from our customers prior to starting projects. In some cases, the Company may elect to purchase
materials and supplies in advance of contract award but where there is a high probability of that award. Most, if not all, high value
items that are pre-purchased, can be re-purposed if necessary. The maximum amount of material cash requirements not currently supported
by up-front customer deposits is expected to be less than $1 million.

 Demand for the products and services will be
dependent on, among other things, market acceptance of our products and services, the technology market in general, and general economic
conditions, which are cyclical in nature. In as much as a major portion of our activities is the receipt of revenues from the sales of
our products and services, our business operations may be adversely affected by our competitors and prolonged recession periods although
these are not considered to be a factor at present.

 In the event of expansion into owning and operating
its own Railcar Inspection Portals, the Company's cash requirements and timing may shift. Specifically, the Company would endeavor
to buy all materials ahead of time and invest in the RIP with follow-on contracts for long-term services and licensing. While this would
shift the Company's cash requirements, it anticipates a 12 – 18-month cash break-even point for each site and an opportunity
for improved cash flows over time with high-margin agreements with the investment bolstered by access to further funding via common stock
and private placement offerings.

 Liquidity

 Under Accounting Codification ASC 205, Presentation
of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) ("ASC 205-40"), the Company has the responsibility to evaluate
whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its future financial obligations as they become due
within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. As required by ASC 205-40, this evaluation shall initially not
take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements
are issued. Management has assessed the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with the requirement of ASC
205-40.

 As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, the Company had a net loss of $11,241,718 for the year ended December 31, 2023. During the same period, cash used in operating
activities was $8,746,564. The working capital surplus and accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2023, were $3,009,842 and $63,603,552,
respectively. In previous financial reports, the Company had raised substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern. This was principally
due to a lack of working capital prior to an underwritten offerings and private placements which were completed during the first, third
and fourth quarters of 2022, the first, third and fourth quarters of 2023, as well as the first quarter of 2024.

 As previously noted, the Company was successful during
2023 in raising gross proceeds of over $11,500,000 from the sale of Series E and F Preferred Stock. Additionally, late in the first quarter
of 2024, the Company raised gross proceeds of $2,745,000 from the issuance of a combination of Series D and E Preferred Stock (See Note
17). As part of its strategy, the Company will endeavor to utilize the Preferred Series E and the remainder of the Series D as additional
funding mechanisms. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2024, the Company will again have access to its S-3 "shelf registration"
statement allowing the Company to sell additional common shares. At the time of this document, the Company estimates that it has available
capacity on its shelf registration which it can utilize to bolster working capital and growth of the business in the event it did not
have an uptake in the preferred classes of shares previously noted. Although additional investment is not assured, the Company is comfortable
that it would be able to raise sufficient capital to support expanded operations based on an anticipated increase in business activity.
In the long run, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to continue executing
its business plan, generate enough revenue, and attain consistently profitable operations. Although the lingering effects of the global
pandemic related to the coronavirus (Covid-19) previously affected our operations, particularly in our supply chain, we now believe that
 the supply chain lags have largely been abated. We have analyzed our cash flow under "stress test" conditions
and have determined that we have sufficient liquid assets on hand or available via the capital markets to maintain operations for at least
twelve months from the issuance date of this report.

 In addition, management has taken and continues to
take actions including, but not limited to, elimination of certain costs that do not contribute to short term revenue, and re-aligning
both management and staffing with a focus on improving certain skill sets necessary to build growth and profitability and focusing product
strategy on opportunities that are likely to bear results in the relatively short term. The Company believes that, with the combination
of commercial sales success, Series E Preferred Stock offering coupled with an S-3 shelf registration availability starting in the second
quarter of 2024, it will have sufficient working capital to meet its obligations over the following twelve months. In the last twelve
months the Company has seen growth in its contracted backlog as well as significant, positive signs from new commercial projects that
indicate improvements in future revenues.

 Management believes that, at this time, the conditions
in our market space with ongoing contract delays and the additional time needed to execute on new contracts previously reported have put
a strain on our cash reserves. However, recent private placements as well as the availability to raise capital via its shelf registration
indicate there is no substantial doubt for the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months. We continue executing
the plan to grow our business and achieve profitability. The Company may selectively look at opportunities for fund raising in the future.
Management has extensively evaluated our requirements for the next 12 months and has determined that the Company currently has sufficient
cash and access to capital to operate for at least that period.

 While no assurance can be provided, management believes
that these actions provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern and to grow its business and achieve profitability
with access to additional capital funding. Ultimately the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability
of the Company to continue executing the plan described above which was put in place in late 2022 and will continue in 2024 and beyond.
As a result, we expect to generate sufficient revenue and to attain profitable operations with minimal cash use in the next 12-18 months.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 Critical Accounting Estimates

 Revenue Recognition

 The Company recognizes revenue over time using
a cost-based input methodology in which significant judgment is required to estimate costs to complete projects. These estimated costs
are then used to determine the progress towards contract completion and the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize. The Company
follows the principles in ASC 606 which include the following: a contract with a customer creates distinct contract assets and performance
obligations, satisfaction of a performance obligation creates revenue, and a performance obligation is satisfied upon transfer of control
to a good or service to a customer.

 Revenue is recognized by evaluating the Company
revenue contracts with customers based on the five-step model under ASC 606:

 1.
 Identify the contract with the customer

 2.
 Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 3.
 Determine the transaction price

 4.
 Allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and

 5.
 Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

 The Company generates revenue from four sources:

 1.
 Technology Systems

 2.
 AI Technologies

 3.
 Technical Support

 4.
 Consulting Services

 Stock
Based Compensation

 The Company accounts for employee and non-employee
stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10, " Share-Based Payment," which requires the measurement and recognition
of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including stock options, restricted stock units,
and employee stock purchases based on estimated fair values. The stock-based compensation carries a graded vesting feature subject to
the condition of time of employment service with awarded stock-based compensation tranches vesting evenly upon the anniversary date of
the award.

 The Company estimates the fair value of stock options
granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing formula. In accordance with ASC 718-10-35-8, the Company elected to recognize the fair
value of the stock award using the graded vesting method as time of employment service is the criteria for vesting. The Company amortizes
the fair value of the stock award over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The Company's
determination of fair value using an option-pricing model is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of
highly subjective variables.

 The Company estimates volatility based upon the historical
stock price of the Company and estimates the expected term for stock options using the simplified method for employees and directors and
the contractual term for non-employees. The risk-free rate is determined based upon the prevailing rate of United States Treasury securities
with similar maturities.

defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of
the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller
have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 Management's Annual Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting

 Our management is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our management,
under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller, evaluated the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report. In making this assessment,
our management used the criteria set forth in the framework contained in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our
internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the end of the period covered by this report based on those criteria.

 Our internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management
and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer,
Chief Financial Officer and Controller, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of
the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller
have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control
over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods
are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies
or procedures may deteriorate. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31,
2023, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

 Board Composition and Director Independence

 Our Board of Directors currently consists of five
members: Mr. Kenneth Ehrman, Mr. Charles P. Ferry, Mr. Ned Mavrommatis, Mr. James Craig Nixon, and Mr. Frank Lonegro. The directors will
serve until our next annual meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Company defines "independent"
as that term is defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2).

 In making the determination of whether a member of
the board is independent, our board considers, among other things, transactions and relationships between each director and his immediate
family and the Company, including those reported under the caption "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions".
The purpose of this review is to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are material and, therefore, inconsistent with
a determination that the directors are independent. Based on such review and its understanding of such relationships and transactions,
our board affirmatively determined that Mr. Ehrman, Mr. Mavrommatis, Mr. Nixon, and Mr. Lonegro are all qualified as independent and none
of them have any material relationship with us that might interfere with his exercise of independent judgment.

 Board Committees

 Our Board of Directors has established an audit
committee, a compensation committee and a corporate governance and nominating committee. Each committee has its own charter, which is
available on our website at www.duostech.com. Each of the board committees has the composition and responsibilities described
below.

 Members will serve on these committees until
their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board of Directors.

 Mr. Mavrommatis, Mr. Nixon and Mr. Ehrman,
all of whom are independent directors within the meaning of the Nasdaq's listing rules, are the Chairman of the Audit Committee,
the Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, respectively. Each of the independent
members of our Board of Directors also serves on one or more committees as previously disclosed.

 Audit Committee

 The Audit Committee oversees our accounting and
financial reporting processes and oversees the audit of our financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting. The specific functions of this Committee include, but are not limited to:

 appointing, approving the compensation of, and assessing the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm;

 overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm, including through the receipt and consideration of reports from such firm;

 reviewing and discussing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm our annual and quarterly financial statements and related disclosures;

 monitoring our internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures and code of business conduct and ethics;

 discussing our risk management policies;

 establishing policies regarding hiring employees from the independent registered public accounting firm and procedures for the receipt and retention of accounting related complaints and concerns;

 meeting independently with our independent registered public accounting firm and management;

 reviewing and approving or ratifying any related person transactions;

 preparing the audit committee report required by SEC rules; and

 oversight of cybersecurity risk management and governance.

 Our board has determined that Mr. Mavrommatis
is currently qualified as an "audit committee financial expert", as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation
S-K. Mr. Mavrommatis serves as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

 Compensation Committee

 The Committee's compensation-related responsibilities
include, but are not limited to:

 reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives with respect to compensation for our Chief Executive Officer;

 reviewing, approving and recommending to our board of directors on an annual basis the evaluation process and compensation structure for our other executive officers;

 determining the need for and the appropriateness of employment agreements and change in control agreements for each of our executive officers and any other officers recommended by the Chief Executive Officer or board of directors;

 providing oversight of management's decisions concerning the performance and compensation of other Company officers, employees, consultants and advisors;

 reviewing our incentive compensation and other equity-based plans and recommending changes in such plans to our board of directors as needed, and exercising all the authority of our board of directors with respect to the administration of such plans;

 overseeing and administering the Company's Policy for
 the Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation;

 reviewing and recommending to our board of directors the compensation of independent directors, including incentive and equity-based compensation; and

 selecting, retaining and terminating such compensation consultants, outside counsel or other advisors as it deems necessary or appropriate.

 Mr. Nixon serves as the Chairman of the Compensation
Committee.

 Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

 The responsibilities of the Corporate Governance and
Nominating Committee include:

 recommending to the board of directors nominees for election as directors at any meeting of stockholders and nominees to fill vacancies on the board;

 considering candidates proposed by stockholders in accordance with the requirements in the Committee charter;

 overseeing the administration of the Company's Code of Ethics;

 reviewing with the entire board of directors, on an annual basis, the requisite skills and criteria for board candidates and the composition of the board as a whole;

 having the authority to retain search firms to assist in identifying board candidates, approve the terms of the search firm's engagement, and cause the Company to pay the engaged search firm's engagement fee;

 recommending to the board of directors on an annual basis the directors to be appointed to each committee of the board of directors;

 overseeing an annual self-evaluation of the board of directors and its committees to determine whether it and its committees are functioning effectively; and

 developing and recommending to the board a set of corporate governance guidelines applicable to the Company.

 Mr. Ehrman serves as the Chairman of the Corporate
Governance and Nominating Committee.

 Equity Compensation Plan Information

 2021 Equity Plan

 On May 12, 2021, the Board adopted, with shareholder
approval, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan") providing for the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of our Common
Stock. The purpose of the 2021 Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining key employees, directors and consultants and
to provide incentives to such individuals to align their interests with those of our shareholders.

 General Description of the 2021 Plan

 The following is a summary of the material provisions
of the 2021 Plan and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2021 Plan, which you are encouraged to read
in full.

 Administration

 The 2021 Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board, which consists of three members of the Board, each of whom is a "non-employee director" within the
meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and an "outside director" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m).
Among other things, the Compensation Committee has complete discretion, subject to the express limits of the 2021 Plan, to determine the
directors, employees and nonemployee consultants to be granted an award, the type of award to be granted, the terms and conditions of
the award, the form of payment to be made and/or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each award, the exercise price of each
option and base price of each stock appreciation right ("SAR"), the term of each award, the vesting schedule for an award,
whether to accelerate vesting, the value of the Common Stock underlying the award, and the required withholding, if any. The Compensation
Committee may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding award, provided that the participant's consent to such action is required
if the action would impair the participant's rights or entitlements with respect to that award. The Compensation Committee is also
authorized to construe the award agreements and may prescribe rules relating to the 2021 Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation
Committee does not have any authority to grant or modify an award under the 2021 Plan with terms or conditions that would cause the grant,
vesting or exercise thereof to be considered nonqualified "deferred compensation" subject to Code Section 409A.

 Grant of Awards; Shares Available for Awards

 The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of stock options,
SARs, performance share awards, performance unit awards, distribution equivalent right awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock
unit awards and unrestricted stock awards to non-employee directors, officers, employees and nonemployee consultants of the Company or
its affiliates. We have reserved a total of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance as or under awards to be made under the 2021
Plan. If any award expires, is cancelled, or terminates unexercised or is forfeited, the number of shares subject thereto is again available
for grant under the 2021 Plan.

 Stock Options

 The 2021 Plan provides for either
"incentive stock options" ("ISOs"), which are intended to meet the requirements for special federal income
tax treatment under the Code, or "nonqualified stock options" ("NQSOs"). On May 12, 2021, the 2021 Plan was
adopted by the board of directors and it was approved by the shareholders on July 15, 2021. Stock options may be granted on such
terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine; provided, however, that the per share exercise price under a stock
option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant and the term
of the stock option may not exceed 10 years (110% of such value and five years in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns
(or is deemed to own) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company or a parent or
subsidiary of the Company). ISOs may only be granted to employees. In addition, the aggregate fair market value of our Common Stock
covered by one or more ISOs (determined at the time of grant) which are exercisable for the first time by an employee during any
calendar year may not exceed $100,000. Any excess is treated as a NQSO.

 Stock Appreciation Rights

 An SAR entitles the participant, upon exercise, to
receive an amount, in cash or stock or a combination thereof, equal to the increase in the fair market value of the underlying Common
Stock between the date of grant and the date of exercise. SARs may be granted in tandem with, or independently of, stock options granted
under the 2021 Plan. An SAR granted in tandem with a stock option (i) is exercisable only at such times, and to the extent, that the related
stock option is exercisable in accordance with the procedure for exercise of the related stock option; (ii) terminates upon termination
or exercise of the related stock option (likewise, the Common Stock option granted in tandem with a SAR terminates upon exercise of the
SAR); (iii) is transferable only with the related stock option; and (iv) if the related stock option is an ISO, may be exercised only
when the value of the stock subject to the stock option exceeds the exercise price of the stock option. An SAR that is not granted in
tandem with a stock option is exercisable at such times as the Compensation Committee may specify.

 Performance Share and Performance Unit Awards

 Performance share and performance unit awards entitle
the participant to receive cash or shares of our Common Stock upon the attainment of specified performance goals. In the case of performance
units, the right to acquire the units is denominated in cash values.

 Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock
Unit Awards

 A restricted stock award is a grant or sale of Common
Stock to the participant, subject to our right to repurchase all or part of the shares at their purchase price (or to require forfeiture
of such shares if issued to the participant at no cost) in the event that conditions specified by the Compensation Committee in the award
are not satisfied prior to the end of the time period during which the shares subject to the award may be repurchased by or forfeited
to us. Our restricted stock unit entitles the participant to receive a cash payment equal to the fair market value of a share of Common
Stock for each restricted stock unit subject to such restricted stock unit award, if the participant satisfies the applicable vesting
requirement.

 Unrestricted Stock Awards

 An unrestricted stock award is a grant or sale of
shares of our Common Stock to the participant that is not subject to transfer, forfeiture or other restrictions, in consideration for
past services rendered to the Company or an affiliate or for other valid consideration.

 Amendment and Termination

 The Compensation Committee may adopt, amend and rescind
rules relating to the administration of the 2021 Plan, and amend, suspend or terminate the 2021 Plan, but no such amendment, rescission,
suspension or termination will be made that materially and adversely impairs the rights of any participant with respect to any award received
thereby under the 2021 Plan without the participant's consent, other than amendments that are necessary to permit the granting of
awards in compliance with applicable laws.

There are no available shares to be issued under the 2016 Plan.

The purpose of the 2021 Plan was to replace the 2016 Plan which had expired and continue to assist the Company in attracting and retaining key employees, directors, and consultants and to provide incentives to such individuals to align their interests with those of our stockholders.

 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 In the fourth quarter of 2022, the board of directors
adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") which was effective as of January 1, 2023 with a term of 10 years. The ESPP
allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a discounted price, through payroll deductions from a minimum
of 1% and up to 25% of their eligible compensation up to a maximum of $25,000 or the IRS allowable limit per calendar year. The Company's
Chief Financial Officer administers the ESPP in conjunction with approvals from the Company's Compensation Committee, including
with respect to the frequency and duration of offering periods, the maximum number of shares that an eligible employee may purchase during
an offering period, and, subject to certain limitations set forth in the ESPP, the per-share purchase price. Currently, the maximum number
of shares that can be purchased by an eligible employee under the ESPP is 10,000 shares per offering period and there are two six-month
offering periods that begin in the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The purchase price for one share of Common Stock under
the ESPP is currently equal to 85% of the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the first trading day of the offering period
or the purchase date, whichever is lower (look-back feature). Although not required by the ESPP, all payroll deductions received or held
by the Company under the ESPP are segregated and deemed as "restricted cash" until the completion of the offering period and
redemption of the applicable shares and those withheld amounts are recorded as liabilities. The maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock that may be issued under the ESPP is
1,000,000 shares.

 Under ASC 718-50 "Employee Share Purchase
Plans" the plan is considered a compensatory plan and the compensation for each six-month offering period is computed based upon
the grant date fair value of the estimated shares to be purchased based on the estimated payroll deduction withholdings. The grant date
fair value was computed as the sum of (a) 15% purchase discount off of the grant date quoted trading price of the Company's common
stock and (b) the fair value of the look-back feature of the Company's common stock on the grant date which consists of a call option
on 85% of a share of common stock and a put option on 15% of a share of common stock.

 In the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company
issued 111,538 shares of common stock related to two transactions. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the employee contributions
for the first ESPP tranche totaled $117,048 and represented a purchase price of $1.79 per share for 65,561 shares. For the six-month period
beginning July 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023 the employee contributions for the second ESPP tranche totaled $113,352 and represented
a purchase price of $2.47 per share for 45,977 shares.

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm

 To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of:

 Duos Technologies Group, Inc.

 Opinion on the Financial Statements

 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Duos Technologies Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated
statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December
31, 2023 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the
consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December
31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 Basis for Opinion

 These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements
based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB")
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards
of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were
we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures
that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 Critical Audit Matters

 The critical audit matters communicated below are
matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated
to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and
(2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter
in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 Percentage of Completion Revenue Recognition &
Related Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

 As described in footnote 1, "Revenue Recognition
– Technology Systems" and footnote 8, "Revenues and Contract Accounting" to the consolidated financial statements,
the Company recognizes revenue over time using a cost-based input methodology in which significant judgement is required to determine
estimated costs to complete projects. These estimated costs are then used to determine the progress towards contract completion and the
corresponding amount of revenue to recognize. In addition, contract assets on uncompleted contracts represent cumulative revenues in excess
of billings on uncompleted contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion contract method. Contract liabilities on uncompleted
contracts represent billings that exceed cumulative revenues recognized on uncompleted contracts accounted for under the percentage of
completion contract method.

 We identified this percentage of completion revenue
recognition as a critical audit matter. Auditing management's estimates and judgments regarding forecasts of total estimated costs
to complete projects is especially challenging and complex.

 The primary procedures we performed to address this
critical audit matter included (a) evaluated the reasonableness of management's cost estimates to complete projects by gaining an
understanding of the management's process to develop the estimates, comparing them to historical information, year-to-date current
information, information available on projects subsequent to year end, and other supporting information, (b) performed ratio analysis
and gross margin comparisons when applicable on a sample of technology systems revenues (c) agreed cost details to supporting documents,
(d) confirmed billings with customers and/or traced cash receipts to bank statements, (e) recomputed the revenue earned and recognized,
and (f) recomputed the contract asset or liability

 We agree with management's conclusions.

 Analysis of Liquidity and Going Concern

 As summarized in Footnote 2 "Liquidity"
to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a history of net losses and net cash used in operating activities and believes
such conditions will continue for a period of time into the future. These are considered adverse conditions or events that lead management
to consider whether there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period
of time or whether such concerns are alleviated with management's plans.

 We identified the going concern risk analysis as a
critical audit matter. Auditing management's going concern analysis including their process to develop the analysis and the projections
of future cash flows, operating trends, and assessments of internal and external matters that may affect the Company's future operations
and cash flows involved a high degree of subjectivity. Additionally, auditing management's plans to address the going concern risk
involved highly subjective auditor judgment.

 The primary procedures we performed to address this
critical audit matter included (a) assessed the reasonableness of management's process for developing their assessment of whether
a going concern risk exists, (b) assessed the reasonableness of assumptions management used in their future cash flow projections, consideration
of positive and negative evidence impacting management's forecasts, and consideration of the Company's financing arrangements
in place as of the report date, (c) developed our own independent calculation of expected source and use of funds and needs of the Company
over the one year period from the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, (d) tested management's bank reconciliations
and confirmed cash balances as of December 31, 2023 with the banks and inspected the bank balances after the March 2024 capital raise
(e) identified management's plans for dealing with the adverse conditions and events discussed above and assessed the reasonableness
of the assumptions of such plans, (f) assessed whether it is probable that management's plans, when implemented, will mitigate the
adverse effects of the conditions and events discussed above, (g) concluded whether substantial doubt exists as to whether the Company
can continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the consolidated financial statements are issued and (h) considered the
effect of such conclusion on the consolidated financial statement disclosures and our report of an independent registered public accounting
firm.

 We agree with management's conclusions.

 NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 Nature of Operations

 Duos Technologies Group, Inc. (the "Company"),
through its operating subsidiaries, Duos Technologies, Inc. ("Duos") and TrueVue360, Inc. ("TrueVue360") (collectively
the "Company"), is a company that specializes in machine vision and artificial intelligence to analyze fast moving objects
such as trains, trucks, automobiles, and aircraft. This technology can help improve safety, maintenance, and operating metrics.

 The Company is the inventor of the Railcar Inspection
Portal (RIP) and is currently the rail industry leader for machine vision/camera wayside detection systems that include the use of Artificial
Intelligence at speeds up to 125 mph. The RIP inspects a train at full speed from the top, sides, and bottom looking at FRA/AAR mandated
safety inspection points. The system also detects illegal riders that assists law enforcement agencies. Each rail car is scanned with
machine vision cameras and other sensors from the top, sides, and bottom and images are produced within seconds of passing that can be
used by the customer to help prevent derailments, improve maintenance operations, and assist with security. The Company self-performs
all aspects of hardware, software, IT, and Artificial Intelligence development and engineering and holds several patents and maintains
significant intellectual property. The Company also has a proprietary portfolio of over 48 Artificial Intelligence "Use Cases"
that automatically flag defects. The Company has deployed this system with several Class 1 and passenger customers and anticipates an
increased demand in the future from rail operators, car owners, shippers, and law enforcement agencies.

 The Company has also developed the Automated Logistics
Information System (ALIS) which automates gatehouse operations where trucks enter and exit large logistics and intermodal facilities.
This solution also incorporates sensors and data points as necessary for each operation and directly interconnects with backend logistics
databases and processes to streamline operations and significantly improve operations and security and, importantly, dramatically improves
throughput on each lane on which the technology is deployed. The Company expects to deploy an upgraded Truck Inspection Portal (TIP) which
uses the same technology and lessons learned from the ALIS and RIP systems.

 The Company's strategy is to expand our existing
customer base in the Class 1, short line, and passenger space in North America; expand our subscription offering to car owners and shippers;
and expand operations to meet the demand from international customers. The Company has prepared to respond and scale if necessary to react
to increased demand from potential regulations that may be imposed around wayside detection technology. In the future the Company may
put more emphasis on the trucking and intermodal sector with an updated Truck Inspection Portal solution. The Company continues to focus
on operational and technical excellence, customer satisfaction, and maintaining a highly skilled and performance-based work force.

 F- 9

 Principles of Consolidation

 The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Duos Technologies, Inc. and TrueVue360, Inc. All inter-company transactions
and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

 Use of Estimates

 The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these
estimates. The most significant estimates in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the allowance on accounts receivable
and notes receivable, valuation of common stock warrants received in exchange for an asset sale, valuation of deferred tax assets, valuation
of intangible and other long-lived assets, estimates of net contract revenues and the total estimated costs to determine progress towards
contract completion, valuation of inventory, estimates of the valuation of right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities, valuation
of warrants issued with debt and valuation of stock-based awards. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 Concentrations

 Cash Concentrations

 Cash is maintained at financial institutions and at
times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses related to these balances. As of December 31,
2023, the Company had balances in a financial institution which combined exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $ 1,948,794.
Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's consolidated financial
condition, results of operation and cash flows.

 F- 10

 Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit
Risk

 The Company had certain customers
whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company's total revenue, or whose accounts receivable balances individually
represented 10% or more of the Company's total accounts receivable, as follows:

 For the year ended December 31, 2023, three customers
accounted for 48 %,
 30 %,
and 11 %
of revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2022, four customers accounted for 42 %,
 18 %,
 14 %
and 14 %
of revenues. In all cases, there are no minimum contract values stated. Each contract covers an agreement to deliver a rail inspection
portal which, once accepted, must be paid in full, with 30 %
or more being due and payable prior to delivery. The balances of the contracts are for service and maintenance which is paid annually
in advance with revenues recorded ratably over the contract period.

 At December 31, 2023, two customers accounted for
 83 %,
and 11 %,
of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2022, four customers accounted for 34 %,
 31 %,
 19 %
and 10 %
of accounts receivable. Much of the credit risk is mitigated since all of the customers listed here are Class 1 railroads with a history
of timely payments to us.

 Geographic Concentration

 Approximately 44 % and 41 % of revenue in 2023 and 2022,
respectively, is generated from customers outside of the United States.

 Significant Vendors and Concentration of
Credit Risk

 In some instances, the Company relies on a limited
pool of vendors for key components related to the manufacturing of its subsystems. These vendors are primarily focused on camera, server
and lighting technologies integral to the Company's solution. Where possible, the Company seeks multiple vendors for key components
to mitigate vendor concentration risk.

 F- 11

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair
Value Measurements

 The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification
("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), for assets and liabilities measured
at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted
accounting principles that requires the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure
about such fair value measurements.

 ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the
use of unobservable inputs.

 These inputs are prioritized below:

 Level 1:

 Observable inputs such as quoted market
 prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 Level 2:

 Observable market-based inputs or unobservable
 inputs that are corroborated by market data

 Level 3:

 Unobservable inputs for which there is little
or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity's own assumptions that the market participants would use in the
valuation of the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 The Company analyzes all financial instruments with
features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB") accounting standard
for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level
of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments,
including accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable are carried at historical cost basis,
which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 Accounts Receivable

 On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, "Financial
Instruments - Credit Losses". In accordance with ASC 326, an allowance is maintained for estimated forward-looking losses resulting
from the possible inability of customers to make required payments (current expected losses). The amount of the allowance is determined
principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers.

 Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable
value. Accounts receivable are comprised of balances due from customers net of estimated allowances for uncollectible accounts. In determining
the collections on the account, historical trends are evaluated, and specific customer issues are reviewed to arrive at appropriate allowances.
The Company reviews its accounts to estimate losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Any required
allowance is based on specific analysis of past due accounts and also considers historical trends of write-offs. Past due status is based
on how recently payments have been received from customers.

 Inventory

 Inventory consists primarily of spare parts and consumables
and long-lead time components to be used in the production of our technology systems or in connection with maintenance agreements with
customers. Any inventory deemed to be obsolete is written off. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory
cost is primarily determined using the weighted average cost method.

 F- 12

 Property and Equipment

 Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the property and equipment (three
 3 to five 5
 years). When assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain
or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the statement of operations. Leasehold improvements are expensed over the shorter
of the term of our lease or their useful lives.

 Software Development Costs

 Software development costs incurred prior to
establishing technological feasibility are charged to operations and included in research and development costs. The technological feasibility
of a software product is established when the Company has completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities that are necessary
to establish that the product meets its design specifications, including functionality, features, and technical performance requirements.
Software development costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility for software sold as a perpetual license, as defined
within ASC 985-20 (Software – Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed) are capitalized and amortized on a product-by-product
basis when the product is available for general release to customers. Software development costs are evaluated for impairment annually by comparing the net realizable value to the unamortized
capitalization costs and writing these costs down to net realizable value.

 Patents and Trademarks

 Patents and trademarks which are stated at amortized
cost, relate to the development of video surveillance security system technology and are being amortized over 17 years.

 Long-Lived Assets

 The Company evaluates the recoverability of its property,
equipment, and other long-lived assets in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35-15 "Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets",
which requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book values of such assets exceed the estimated future
undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets or the business to which such intangible assets relate. This guidance requires that
long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison
of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered
to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair
value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 Product Warranties

 The Company has a 90 -day warranty period for materials
and labor after final acceptance of a project. If any parts are defective they are replaced under our vendor warranty which is usually
 12 to 36 months. Final acceptance terms vary by customer. Some customers have a cure period for any material deviation and if the Company
fails or is unable to correct any deviations, a full refund of all payments made by the customer will be arranged by the Company. As of
December 31, 2023 and 2022, the warranty costs have been de-minimis, therefore no accrual of warranty liability has been made.

 Loan Costs

 Loan costs paid to lenders, or third parties are recorded
as debt discounts to the related loans and amortized to interest expense over the loan term.

 Sales Returns

 Our systems are sold as integrated systems and there
are no sales returns allowed.

 Revenue Recognition

 The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification
606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), that affects the timing of when certain types of revenues will be
recognized. The basic principles in ASC 606 include the following: a contract with a customer creates distinct contract assets and performance
obligations, satisfaction of a performance obligation creates revenue, and a performance obligation is satisfied upon transfer of control
to a good or service to a customer.

 F- 13

 Revenue is recognized by evaluating our revenue contracts
with customers based on the five-step model under ASC 606:

 1.

 Identify the contract with the customer;

 2.

 Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

 3.

 Determine the transaction price;

 4.

 Allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and

 5.

 Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

 The Company generates revenue from four sources: (1)
Technology Systems; (2) AI Technologies; (3) Technical Support and (4) Consulting services.

 Technology Systems

 For revenues related to technology systems, the Company
recognizes revenue over time using a cost-based input methodology in which significant judgment is required to estimate costs to complete
projects. These estimated costs are then used to determine the progress towards contract completion and the corresponding amount of revenue
to recognize.

 Accordingly, the Company now bases its revenue recognition
on ASC 606-10-25-27, where control of a good or service transfers over time if the entity's performance does not create an asset
with an alternative use to the entity and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date including a
profit margin or reasonable return on capital. Control is deemed to pass to the customer instantaneously as the goods are manufactured
and revenue is recognized accordingly.

 In addition, the Company has adopted ASC 606-10-55-21
such that if the cost incurred is not proportionate to the progress in satisfying the performance obligation, we adjust the input method
to recognize revenue only to the extent of the cost incurred. Therefore, the Company will recognize revenue at an equal amount to the
cost of the goods to satisfy the performance obligation. To accurately reflect revenue recognition based on the input method, the Company
has adopted the implementation guidance as set out in ASC-606-10-55-187 through 192.

 Under this method, contract revenues are recognized
over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract
labor and other allocable indirect costs. All un-allocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are also charged
to the periods as incurred. Any recognized revenues that have not been billed to a customer are recorded as an asset in "contract
assets". Any billings of customers more than recognized revenues are recorded as a liability in "contract liabilities".
However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined to be both probable and reasonably estimable.

 AI Technologies

 The Company has revenue from applications that incorporate
artificial intelligence (AI) in the form of predetermined algorithms which provide important operating information to the users of our
systems. The revenue generated from these applications of AI consists of a fixed fee related to the design, development, testing and incorporation
of new algorithms into the system, which is recognized as revenue at a point in time upon acceptance, as well as an annual application
maintenance fee, which is recognized as revenue ratably over the contracted maintenance term.

 Technical Support

 Technical support services are provided on both an
as-needed and extended-term basis and may include providing both parts and labor. Maintenance and technical support provided outside of
a maintenance contract are on an "as-requested" basis, and revenue is recognized over time as the services are provided. Revenue
for maintenance and technical support provided on an extended-term basis is recognized over time ratably over the term of the contract.

 F- 14

 Consulting Services

 The Company's consulting services business generates
revenues under contracts with customers from four sources: (1) Professional Services (consulting and auditing); (2) Software licensing
with optional hardware sales; (3) Customer service training and (4) Maintenance support.

 (1) Revenues for professional services,
which are of short-term duration, are recognized when services are completed;

 (2) For all periods reflected in this report,
software license sales have been one-time sales of a perpetual license to use our software product and the customer also has the option
to purchase third-party manufactured handheld devices from us if they purchase our software license. Accordingly, the revenue is recognized
upon delivery of the software and delivery of the hardware, as applicable, to the customer;

 (3) Training sales are one-time upfront
short-term training sessions and are recognized after the service has been performed; and

 (4) Maintenance/support is an optional product
sold to our software license customers under one-year contracts. Accordingly, maintenance payments received upfront are deferred and recognized
over the contract term.

 Multiple Performance Obligations and Allocation
of Transaction Price

 Arrangements with customers may involve multiple performance
obligations including project revenue and maintenance services in our Technology Systems business. Maintenance will occur after the project
is completed and may be provided on an extended-term basis or on an as-needed basis. In our consulting services business, multiple performance
obligations may include any of the above four sources. Training and maintenance on software products may occur after the software product
sale while other services may occur before or after the software product sale and may not relate to the software product. Revenue recognition
for a multiple performance obligations arrangement is as follows:

 Each performance obligation is accounted for separately
when each has value to the customer on a standalone basis and there is Company specific objective evidence of the selling price of each
deliverable. For revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates the total customer arrangement to the separate
units of accounting based on their relative selling prices as determined by the price of the items when sold separately. Once the selling
price is allocated, the revenue for each performance obligation is recognized using the applicable criteria under GAAP as discussed above
for performance obligations sold in single performance obligation arrangements. A delivered item or items that do not qualify as a separate
unit of accounting within the arrangement are combined with the other applicable undelivered items within the arrangement. The allocation
of arrangement consideration and the recognition of revenue is then determined for those combined deliverables as a single unit of accounting.
The Company sells its various services and software and hardware products at established prices on a standalone basis which provides Company
specific objective evidence of selling price for purposes of performance obligations relative selling price allocation. The Company only
sells maintenance services or spare parts based on its established rates after it has completed a system integration project for a customer.
The customer is not required to purchase maintenance services. All elements in multiple performance obligations arrangements with Company
customers qualify as separate units of account for revenue recognition purposes.

 Advertising

 The Company expenses the cost of advertising.
During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no advertising costs.

 F- 15

 Stock Based Compensation

 The Company accounts for employee and non-employee
stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10, " Share-Based Payment," which requires the measurement and recognition
of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employee and directors including stock options, restricted stock units,
and employee stock purchases based on estimated fair values. The stock-based compensation carries a graded vesting feature subject to the condition of time of employment service
with awarded stock-based compensation tranches vesting evenly upon the anniversary date of the award.

 The Company estimates the fair value of stock options
granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing formula. In accordance with ASC 718-10-35-8, the Company elected to recognize the fair
value of the stock award using the graded vesting method as time of employment service is the criteria for vesting. The Company's
determination of fair value using an option-pricing model is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of
highly subjective variables.

 The Company estimates volatility based upon the
historical stock price of the Company and estimates the expected term for stock options using the simplified method for employees
and directors and the contractual term for non-employees. The risk-free rate is determined based upon the prevailing rate of United States
Treasury securities with similar maturities.

 Income Taxes

 The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with the Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, which requires
the recognition of deferred income taxes for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income
tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either
be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 The Company evaluates all significant tax positions
as required by ASC 740. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not believe that it has taken any positions that would require the recording
of any additional tax liability, nor does it believe that there are any unrealized tax benefits that would either increase or decrease
within the next year.

 Any penalties and interest assessed by income
taxing authorities are included in operating expenses.

 The federal and state income tax returns of the
Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed. Tax years
2020, 2021 and 2022 remain open for potential audit.

 Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 Basic earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing
the net loss applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share
is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period
and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares
issuable upon the exercise or conversion of stock options, stock warrants, convertible debt instruments, convertible preferred stock or
other common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 At December 31, 2023, there were (i) an aggregate
of 44,644 outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock, (ii) employee stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,387,775 shares
of common stock, (iii) 433,000 common shares issuable upon conversion of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, (iv) 3,833,334 common shares
issuable upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, and (v) 0 common shares issuable upon conversion of Series F Convertible
Preferred Stock, all of which were excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings per share because their inclusion would have
been anti-dilutive.

 At December 31, 2022, there was an aggregate of 147,591
outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock aggregate of 926,266
employee stock options to purchase shares of common stock, and 433,000
common shares were issuable upon conversion of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which were excluded from the computation
of diluted net earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

 F- 16

 Leases

 The Company follows ASC 842 "Leases".
This guidance requires lessees to recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In
addition, this guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the revenue guidance
in ASC 606.

 The Company made an accounting policy election
to not recognize short-term leases with terms of twelve months or less on the balance sheet and instead recognize the lease payments in
expense as incurred. The Company has also elected to account for real estate leases that contain both lease and non-lease components as
a single lease component.

 At the inception of a contract the Company assesses
whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company's assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of
a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout
the period, and (3) whether we have the right to direct the use of the asset.

 Operating ROU assets represent the right to use
the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of minimum lease payments
over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate
based on the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of future payments. The lease term includes
all periods covered by renewal and termination options where the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal options or not
to exercise the termination options. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included
in general and administration expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 From time to time, the FASB or other standards setting
bodies will issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards
Update ("ASU").

 In August 2020, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement
(ASU 2020-06) related to the measurement and disclosure requirements for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity's own equity.
The pronouncement simplifies and adds disclosure requirements for the accounting and measurement of convertible instruments and the settlement
assessment for contracts in an entity's own equity. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those
fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company early adopted this pronouncement for our fiscal year beginning January 1,
2022, and it did not have a material effect on our audited consolidated financial statements.

 In May 2021, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement
(ASU 2021-04) related to modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (such as warrants) that remain
equity classified after modification or exchange. The pronouncement states that an entity should treat the modification as an exchange
of the original instrument for a new instrument, and the effect of the modification should be calculated as the difference between the
fair value of the modified instrument and the fair value of that instrument immediately before modification. An entity should then recognize
the effect of the modification on the basis of the substance of the transaction, in the same manner as if cash had been paid as consideration.
This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021.
The pronouncement is applied prospectively to all modifications that occur after the initial date of adoption. We adopted this pronouncement
for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2022, and it did not have a material effect on our audited consolidated financial statements.

 In March 2022,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.
The guidance was issued as improvements to ASU No. 2016-13. The vintage disclosure changes require an entity to disclose
current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively.
Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will impact our disclosures but
will not otherwise impact the consolidated financial statements. During 2023, the Company adopted a policy related to Topic 326 whereby
it periodically reviews the collectability and historical write-offs, if any, to evaluate the need for any credit losses or an allowance.

 In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07
Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires companies to disclose significant
segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning
on January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025. ASU 2023-07 must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods
presented in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating the disclosure impact of ASU 2023-07; however, the standard will not
have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU
No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires companies to disclose, on an
annual basis, specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that
meet a quantitative threshold. Further, ASU 2023-09 requires companies to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. ASU
2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025 and will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply
the standard retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the disclosure impact of ASU 2023-09; however, the standard will not have an
impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not
yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY

 Under Accounting Codification ASC 205, Presentation
of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) ("ASC 205-40"), the Company has the responsibility to evaluate
whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its future financial obligations as they become due
within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. As required by ASC 205-40, this evaluation shall initially not
take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements
are issued. Management has assessed the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with the requirement of ASC
205-40.

 As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, the Company had a net loss of $ 11,241,718 for the year ended December 31, 2023. During the same period, cash used in operating
activities was $8,746,564. The working capital surplus and accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2023, were $ 3,009,842 and $ 63,603,552,
respectively. In previous financial reports, the Company had raised substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern. This was principally
due to a lack of working capital prior to an underwritten offerings and a private placement which were completed during the first, third
and fourth quarters of 2022, the first, third and fourth quarters of 2023, as well as the first quarter of 2024.

 As previously noted, the Company was successful during
2023 in raising gross proceeds of over $11,500,000 from the sale of Series E and F Preferred Stock. Additionally, late in the first quarter
of 2024, the Company raised gross proceeds of $2,745,000 from the issuance of a combination of Series D and E Preferred Stock (See Note
17). As part of its strategy, the Company will endeavor to utilize the Preferred Series E and the remainder of the Series D as additional
funding mechanisms. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2024, the Company will again have access to its S-3 "shelf registration"
statement allowing the Company to sell additional common shares. At the time of this document, the Company estimates that it has available
capacity on its shelf registration which it can utilize to bolster working capital and growth of the business in the event it did not
have an uptake in the preferred classes of shares previously noted. Although additional investment is not assured, the Company is comfortable
that it would be able to raise sufficient capital to support expanded operations based on an anticipated increase in business activity.
In the long run, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to continue executing
its business plan, generate enough revenue, and attain consistently profitable operations. Although the lingering effects of the global
pandemic related to the coronavirus (Covid-19) previously effected our operations, particularly in our supply chain, we now believe that
 the supply chain lags have largely been abated. We have analyzed our cash flow under "stress test" conditions
and have determined that we have sufficient liquid assets on hand or available via the capital markets to maintain operations for at least
twelve months from the issuance date of this report.

 In addition, management has taken and continues to
take actions including, but not limited to, elimination of certain costs that do not contribute to short term revenue, and re-aligning
both management and staffing with a focus on improving certain skill sets necessary to build growth and profitability and focusing product
strategy on opportunities that are likely to bear results in the relatively short term. The Company believes that, with the combination
of commercial sales success, Series E Preferred Stock offering coupled with an S-3 shelf registration availability starting in the second
quarter of 2024, it will have sufficient working capital to meet its obligations over the following twelve months. In the last twelve
months the Company has seen growth in its contracted backlog as well as significant, positive signs from new commercial projects that
indicate improvements in future revenues.

 Management believes that, at this time, the conditions
in our market space with ongoing contract delays and the additional time needed to execute on new contracts previously reported have put
a strain on our cash reserves. However, recent private placements as well as the availability to raise capital via its shelf registration
indicate there is no substantial doubt for the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months. We continue executing
the plan to grow our business and achieve profitability. The Company may selectively look at opportunities for fund raising in the future.
Management has extensively evaluated our requirements for the next 12 months and has determined that the Company currently has sufficient
cash and access to capital to operate for at least that period.

 While no assurance can be provided, management believes
that these actions provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern and to grow its business and achieve profitability
with access to additional capital funding. Ultimately the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability
of the Company to continue executing the plan described above which was put in place in late 2022 and will continue in 2024 and beyond.
As a result, we expect to generate sufficient revenue and to attain profitable operations with minimal cash use in the next 12-18 months.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 Disaggregation of Revenue

 The Company is following
the guidance of ASC 606-10-55-296 and 297 for disaggregation of revenue. Accordingly, revenue has been disaggregated according to the
nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows. We are providing qualitative and quantitative disclosures.

 Qualitative:

 1. We have four distinct revenue sources:

 a. Technology Systems (Turnkey, engineered projects);

 b. AI Technology (Associated maintenance and support services);

 c. Technical Support (Licensing and professional services related
to auditing of data center assets); and

 d. Consulting Services (Predetermined algorithms to provide important
operating information to the users of our systems).

 2. We currently operate in North America including the USA, Mexico and
Canada.

 3. Our customers include rail transportation, commercial, government, banking
and IT suppliers.

 4. Our technology systems and equipment projects fall into two types:

 a. Transfer of goods and services are over time.

 b. Goods delivered at point in time.

 5. Our services & maintenance contracts are fixed price and fall into
two duration types:

 a. Turnkey engineered projects and professional service contracts
that are less than one year in duration and are typically one to two quarters in length; and

 b. Maintenance and support contracts ranging from one to five
years in length.

 NOTE 9 – DEFERRED COMPENSATION

 As of December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company has
accrued zero 0 and $ 297,620, respectively, of deferred compensation relating to individual agreements with the former CEO and
sales staff, which are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in accrued expenses. (See Note 10)

 NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 Operating Lease Obligations

 On July 26, 2021, the Company entered a new
operating lease agreement for office and warehouse combination space of 40,000 square
feet, with the lease commencing on November 1, 2021, and ending April 30, 2032. This new space combines the Company's two
separate work locations into one facility, which allows for greater collaboration and also accommodates a larger anticipated
workforce and manufacturing facility. On November 24, 2021, the lease was amended to commence on December 1, 2021, and end on May
31, 2032. The Company recognized a ROU asset and operating lease liability in the amount of $ 4,980,104 at
lease commencement. Rent for the first eleven months of the term was calculated based on 30,000 rentable
square feet. The rent is subject to an annual escalation of 2.5%, beginning November 1, 2023. The Company made a security deposit
payment in the amount of $ 600,000 on
July 26, 2021. Per the contract, in the 18 th month the security deposit was reduced by $ 50,000. The right of use asset
balance at December 31, 2023, net of accumulated amortization, was $ 4,373,155.

 F- 23

 As of December 31, 2023, the office and warehouse
lease is the Company's only lease with a term greater than twelve months. The office and warehouse lease has a remaining term of
approximately 8.5 years and includes an option to extend for two renewal terms of five years each. The renewal options are not reasonably
certain to be exercised, and therefore, they are not included when determining the lease term used to establish the right-of use asset
and lease liability. The Company also has several short-term leases, primarily related to equipment. The Company made an accounting policy
election to not recognize short-term leases with terms of twelve months or less on the consolidated balance sheet and instead recognize
the lease payments in expense as incurred. The Company has also elected to account for real estate leases that contain both lease and
non-lease components (such as common area maintenance) as a single lease component.

 Executive Severance Agreement

 Pursuant to a separation agreement with Gianni Arcaini, our
former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board (the "Separation Agreement"), Mr. Arcaini's employment with
the Company ended on September 1, 2020 ("Separation Date"). The Separation Agreement provided that he would receive separation
payments over a 36- month period equal to his base salary plus $75,000 as well as certain limited health and life insurance benefits.
The Separation Agreement also contained confidentiality, non-disparagement and non-solicitation covenants and a release of claims by
Mr. Arcaini. In accordance with the Separation Agreement, the Company paid to Mr. Arcaini the total sum of $747,788. On March 1, 2021,
the Company paid to Mr. Arcaini a lump-sum amount equal to the first six months of payments, or $124,631, owed to Mr. Arcaini and the

 NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 The Company maintains deferred tax assets and liabilities
that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets (liabilities) at December 31, 2023 and 2022 consist of
net operating loss carryforwards and differences in the book basis and tax basis of intangible assets.

 The items accounting for the difference between income
taxes at the effective statutory rate and the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

 The gross operating loss carryforward was approximately
$ 50,076,569 and $ 39,727,050 at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred
income tax assets for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 because it was not known whether future taxable income will be sufficient
to utilize the loss carryforward and other deferred tax assets. The increase in the valuation allowance was $ 2,493,815 in 2023.

 The potential tax benefit arising from the net operating
loss carryforward of $ 4,357,876 from the period prior to January 1, 2018, will expire in 2037. The potential tax benefit arising from
the net operating loss carryforward of $ 7,876,137 generated after January 1, 2018 can be carried forward indefinitely within the annual
usage limitations.

 F- 25

 Additionally, the future utilization of the net operating
loss carryforward to offset future taxable income is subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership or business changes that
may occur in the future. The Company has not conducted a study to determine the limitations on the utilization of these net operating
loss carryforwards. If necessary, the deferred tax assets will be reduced by any carryforward that may not be utilized or expires prior
to utilization as a result of such limitations, with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance.

 The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions
or events leading to uncertainty in a tax position. The Company's 2022, 2021 and 2020 Corporate Income Tax Returns are subject to
Internal Revenue Service examination.

 NOTE 12 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

 2016 Equity Plan

 We maintained the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the
"2016 Plan") for employees, officers, directors and other entities and individuals whose efforts contribute to our success.
The 2016 Plan terminated pursuant to its terms on December 31, 2020, although all outstanding awards on such date continue in full force
and effect.

 2021 Equity Plan

 On May 12, 2021, the Board adopted, with shareholder
approval as of July 15, 2021, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan") providing for the issuance of up to 1,000,000
shares of our Common Stock. The purpose of the 2021 Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining key employees, directors
and consultants and to provide incentives to such individuals to align their interests with those of our shareholders.

 General Description of the 2021 Plan

 The following is a summary of the material provisions
of the 2021 Plan and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2021 Plan, which you are encouraged to read
in full.

 Administration

 The 2021 Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board, which consists of three members of the Board, each of whom is a "non-employee director" within the
meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and an "outside director" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m).
Among other things, the Compensation Committee has complete discretion, subject to the express limits of the 2021 Plan, to determine the
directors, employees and nonemployee consultants to be granted an award, the type of award to be granted, the terms and conditions of
the award, the form of payment to be made and/or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each award, the exercise price of each
option and base price of each stock appreciation right ("SAR"), the term of each award, the vesting schedule for an award,
whether to accelerate vesting, the value of the Common Stock underlying the award, and the required withholding, if any. The Compensation
Committee may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding award, provided that the participant's consent to such action is required
if the action would impair the participant's rights or entitlements with respect to that award. The Compensation Committee is also
authorized to construe the award agreements and may prescribe rules relating to the 2021 Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation
Committee does not have any authority to grant or modify an award under the 2021 Plan with terms or conditions that would cause the grant,
vesting or exercise thereof to be considered nonqualified "deferred compensation" subject to Code Section 409A.

 Grant of Awards; Shares Available for Awards

 The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of stock options,
SARs, performance share awards, performance unit awards, distribution equivalent right awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock
unit awards and unrestricted stock awards to non-employee directors, officers, employees and nonemployee consultants of the Company or
its affiliates. We have reserved a total of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance as or under awards to be made under the 2021
Plan. If any award expires, is cancelled, or terminates unexercised or is forfeited, the number of shares subject thereto is again available
for grant under the 2021 Plan.

 F- 26

 Stock Options

 The 2021 Plan provides for either
"incentive stock options" ("ISOs"), which are intended to meet the requirements for special federal income
tax treatment under the Code, or "nonqualified stock options" ("NQSOs"). On May 12, 2021, the 2021 Plan was
approved by the board of directors and by the shareholders on July 15, 2021. Stock options may be granted on such terms and
conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine; provided, however, that the per share exercise price under a stock option
may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant and the term of the
stock option may not
exceed 10 years (110% of such value and five years in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns (or is deemed to
own) more
than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the
Company). ISOs may only be granted to employees. In addition, the aggregate fair market value of our Common Stock covered by one or
more ISOs (determined at the time of grant) which are exercisable for the first time by an employee during any calendar year may not
exceed $ 100,000.
Any excess is treated as a NQSO.

 Stock Appreciation Rights

 An SAR entitles the participant, upon exercise, to
receive an amount, in cash or stock or a combination thereof, equal to the increase in the fair market value of the underlying Common
Stock between the date of grant and the date of exercise. SARs may be granted in tandem with, or independently of, stock options granted
under the 2021 Plan. An SAR granted in tandem with a stock option (i) is exercisable only at such times, and to the extent, that the related
stock option is exercisable in accordance with the procedure for exercise of the related stock option; (ii) terminates upon termination
or exercise of the related stock option (likewise, the Common Stock option granted in tandem with a SAR terminates upon exercise of the
SAR); (iii) is transferable only with the related stock option; and (iv) if the related stock option is an ISO, may be exercised only
when the value of the stock subject to the stock option exceeds the exercise price of the stock option. An SAR that is not granted in
tandem with a stock option is exercisable at such times as the Compensation Committee may specify.

 Performance Share and Performance Unit Awards

 Performance share and performance unit awards entitle
the participant to receive cash or shares of our Common Stock upon the attainment of specified performance goals. In the case of performance
units, the right to acquire the units is denominated in cash values.

 Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock
Unit Awards

 A restricted stock award is a grant or sale of Common
Stock to the participant, subject to our right to repurchase all or part of the shares at their purchase price (or to require forfeiture
of such shares if issued to the participant at no cost) in the event that conditions specified by the Compensation Committee in the award
are not satisfied prior to the end of the time period during which the shares subject to the award may be repurchased by or forfeited
to us. Our restricted stock unit entitles the participant to receive a cash payment equal to the fair market value of a share of Common
Stock for each restricted stock unit subject to such restricted stock unit award, if the participant satisfies the applicable vesting
requirement.

 Unrestricted Stock Awards

 An unrestricted stock award is a grant or sale of
shares of our Common Stock to the participant that is not subject to transfer, forfeiture or other restrictions, in consideration for
past services rendered to the Company or an affiliate or for other valid consideration.

 Amendment and Termination

 The Compensation Committee may adopt, amend and rescind
rules relating to the administration of the 2021 Plan, and amend, suspend or terminate the 2021 Plan, but no such amendment, rescission,
suspension or termination will be made that materially and adversely impairs the rights of any participant with respect to any award received
thereby under the 2021 Plan without the participant's consent, other than amendments that are necessary to permit the granting of
awards in compliance with applicable laws.

 Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 The following summary of certain terms and provisions
of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Convertible Preferred Stock") is subject to, and qualified in its
entirety by reference to, the terms and provisions set forth in our certificate of designation of preferences, rights and limitations
of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Convertible Preferred Certificate of Designation") as previously filed.
Subject to the limitations prescribed by our articles of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to establish the number of
shares constituting each series of preferred stock and to fix the designations, powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each
of those series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each of those series, all without any further vote or action by
our stockholders. Our board of directors designated 15,000 of the 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock with a stated value of $ 1,000 per share. The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable.

 Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock was convertible at any time at the holder's option into a number of shares of common stock equal to $ 1,000
 divided by the conversion price of $ 7.00
 per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we could not effect any conversion of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with certain
exceptions, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock (together with such holder's affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder's
affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%)
of the shares of our common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. The Series B Convertible Preferred Certificate
of Designation does not prohibit the Company from waiving this limitation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary (a "Liquidation"), the holders shall be entitled to participate on an as-converted-to-common
stock basis (without giving effect to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) with holders of the common stock in any distribution of assets
of the Company to the holders of the common stock. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, there are zero 0
and zero 0 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

 Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

 The Company's Board of Directors designated
 5,000
 shares as the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Convertible Preferred Stock"). Each share of the
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $ 1,000.
The holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, the holders of the common stock and the holders of any other class or series
of shares entitled to vote with the common stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders
of the Company. Each
share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock had 172 votes (subject to adjustment); provided that in no event may a holder of Series
C Convertible Preferred Stock be entitled to vote a number of shares in excess of such holder's Beneficial Ownership Limitation
(as defined in the Certificate of Designation and as described below). Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible,
at any time and from time to time, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation) determined by dividing the stated value of such share ($1,000) by the conversion price, which is $5.50 (subject
to adjustment). The Company shall not effect any conversion of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have
the right to convert any portion of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion
sought by the holder such holder (together with such holder's Attribution Parties (as defined in the Certificate of Designation))
would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or upon election by a holder, 19.99%) of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately
after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation").
All holders of the Series C Preferred Stock elected the 19.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 On February 26, 2021, the Company entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain existing investors in the Company (the "Purchasers").
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers purchased 4,500 shares of a newly authorized Series C Convertible Preferred Stock,

 F- 28

 Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

 On September 28, 2022, the Company amended its
articles of incorporation to designate 4,000
shares as the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series D Convertible Preferred Stock"). Each share of the

The holders of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the holders of the common stock and the holders of any other class or
series of shares entitled to vote with the common stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of
shareholders of the Company. Each
share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock has 333 votes (subject to standard anti-dilution adjustment); provided that in
no event may a holder of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock be entitled to vote a number of shares in excess of such
holder's Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Certificate of Designation and as described below). Each share of
Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time and from time to time, at the option of the holder, into that
number of shares of common stock (subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) determined by dividing the stated value of such
share ($1,000) by the conversion price, which is $ 3.00
(subject to adjustment). The Company shall not effect any conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and a holder shall
not have the right to convert any portion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to the
conversion sought by the holder such holder (together with such holder's Attribution Parties (as defined in the Certificate of
Designation)) would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or upon election by a holder, 19.99%) of the number of shares of common stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion (the
"Beneficial Ownership Limitation"). All holders of the Series D Preferred Stock elected the 19.99% Beneficial Ownership
Limitation. The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the issuance
upon the conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, such a number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time
be issuable upon the conversion of all of the shares of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding. Additionally, the

 F- 29

 The Company on March 27, 2023 entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with an existing investor in the Company (the "Purchaser"). Pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser purchased 4,000 shares of a newly authorized Series E Convertible Preferred Stock at a price
of $ 1,000 per share, and the Company received proceeds of $ 4,000,000. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties,
agreements and indemnification rights and obligations of the parties.

 The existing investor's Purchase Agreement also
provides that the Company will not, with certain exceptions, sell or issue common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the

per share less than the then conversion price of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock without the consent of the Purchaser.

 On November 9, 2023, the Company entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with an existing investor in the Company (the

per common share. All shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock were held by a single shareholder.

 The November Purchase Agreement also provides that

Agreement) on or prior to June 30, 2024 that entitles any person to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share less
than the then conversion price of the Series E Preferred Stock without the consent of the Purchasers. The conversion price of the Series

Stock for an equal number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock. As a result of the November Purchase Agreement and the Exchange Agreements,

customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights and obligations of the parties.

 The Company's Board of Directors designated 5,000
shares as the Series F Preferred Stock. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time and from time to time, at
the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the beneficial ownership limitation described
below) determined by dividing the stated value of such share ($ 1,000)
by the conversion price, which is $ 6.20
(subject to adjustment) which equates to 161 common shares for each converted Series F preferred share. The Company, however, shall not effect any conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock, and the holder
shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series F Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to the
conversion sought by the holder such holder (together with such holder's Attribution Parties (as defined in the Certificate of

outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion. The purchasers
of the Series F Preferred Stock elected that their ownership limitation would be 19.99%.

 The holders of the Series F Preferred Stock, the holders
of the common stock and the holders of any other class or series of shares entitled to vote with the common stock shall vote together
as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock had 161 votes (subject
to adjustment); provided that in no event may a holder of Series F Preferred Stock be entitled to vote a number of shares in excess of
such holder's ownership limitation.

 The Company also agreed that it would not, with certain
exceptions, sell or issue common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement relating to the Series F Preferred
Stock) on or prior to December 31, 2023 that entitled any person to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share less
than the then conversion price of the Series F Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders. As a result of that agreement, upon

holders exchanged their 5,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock for 5,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock. All of the shares of Series

 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 In the fourth quarter of 2022, the board of
directors adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") which, was effective as of January 1, 2023 with a term of 10
years. The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a discounted price, through payroll
deductions from a minimum of 1% and up to 25% of their eligible compensation up to a maximum of $25,000 or the IRS allowable limit
per calendar year. The Company's Chief Financial Officer administers the ESPP in conjunction with approvals from the
Company's Compensation Committee, including with respect to the frequency and duration of offering periods, the maximum number
of shares that an eligible employee may purchase during an offering period, and, subject to certain limitations set forth in the
ESPP, the per-share purchase price. Currently, the maximum number of shares that can be purchased by an eligible employee under the
ESPP is 10,000 shares per offering period and there are two six-month offering periods that begin in the first and third quarters of
each fiscal year. The purchase price for one share of Common Stock under the ESPP is currently equal to 85% of the fair market value
of one share of Common Stock on the first trading day of the offering period or the purchase date, whichever is lower (look-back
feature). Although not required by the ESPP, all payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the ESPP are segregated
and deemed as "restricted cash" until the completion of the offering period and redemption of the applicable shares and
those withheld amounts are recorded as liabilities. The maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock that may be issued
under the ESPP is 1,000,000 shares.

 Under ASC 718-50 "Employee Share
Purchase Plans" the plan is considered a compensatory plan and the compensation for each six-month offering period is computed
based upon the grant date fair value of the estimated shares to be purchased based on the estimated payroll deduction withholdings.
The grant date fair value was computed as the sum of (a) 15% purchase discount off of the grant date quoted trading price of the
Company's common stock and (b) the fair value of the look-back feature of the Company's common stock on the grant date
which consists of a call option on 85% of a share of common stock and a put option on 15% of a share of common stock.

 In the year ended December
31, 2023, the Company issued 111,538
shares of common stock related to two transactions. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the employee contributions for the first
ESPP tranche totaled $ 117,048
and represented a purchase price of $ 1.79
per share for 65,561
shares. For the six-month period beginning July 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023 the employee contributions for the second ESPP
tranche totaled $ 113,352
and represented a purchase price of $ 2.47
per share for 45,977
shares.

 Stock-Based Compensation

 Stock-based compensation expense recognized
under ASC 718-10 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, was $ 573,441
and $ 819,191,
respectively, for stock options granted to employees and directors. This expense is included in selling general and administrative
expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the periods is based on
the grant date fair value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. At
December 31, 2023, the total compensation cost for stock options that was not yet recognized was $ 580,572.
This cost will be recognized over the remaining vesting term of the options ranging from 12 months to 2.0
years.

 Treasury Stock

 In August 2016, the Company's Board of
Directors approved a new class of Preferred Stock, "Series A". For shareholders who invested in previous private placements,
the Company was offering on a case-by-case basis, the ability to convert the existing amount invested into an equivalent amount in the
Series A on the condition that they invest an equivalent additional amount in the Series A. In December of 2017, the Company redeemed
all of the Series A and continues to hold 235 shares purchased for $ 148,000 as a part of the original transaction. In December 2018, the
Company entered into an agreement with two shareholders to purchase shares from them at fair market value. The Company purchased 84 shares
at $ 7.00 per shares and 140 shares at $ 6.30 per share. In 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with two shareholders to purchase
shares from them at fair market value. The Company purchased 115 shares at $ 10.08 per share and 753 shares at $ 9.09 per share. Accordingly,
as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company held 1,324 shares of Common at an aggregate value of $ 157,452.

 NOTE 14 – DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

 The Company has a 401(k)-retirement savings plan (the
"401(k) Plan") covering all eligible employees. The 401(k) Plan allows employees to defer a portion of their annual compensation,
and the Company may match a portion of the employees' contributions generally after the first six months of service. During the

Plan. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized expense for matching cash contributions to the 401(k) Plan totaling
$ 216,332.

 NOTE 15 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 There were no related party transactions for the periods reflected
in this report.

 NOTE 16 – SALE OF ASSETS

 On June 29, 2023, the Company completed a transaction
whereby it sold assets related to its Integrated Correctional Automation System (iCAS) business with a single customer. In the fourth
quarter of 2022, the Company elected to not renew a support contract due to the limited nature of the business. The transaction was completed
with a third-party buyer of which the Company's former Chief Financial Officer is a director. Said former officer did not participate
in the transaction on behalf of the Company.

 The assets of the iCAS business were sold for a convertible
promissory note with a principal amount of $ 165,000 with a 10 % original issue discount as well as common stock purchase warrants. The
note matures in 2 years from the date of sale and is convertible immediately through the later of the maturity date or payment by the
borrower of the default amount, as defined in the note, into shares of the buyer's common stock at a conversion price of $ 0.003
or 55,000,000 shares. The conversion of the note carries restrictions which include limiting conversion to the extent it would exceed
4.99% of the common stock outstanding of the buyer. The convertible promissory note is subject to standard anti-dilution provisions.

 The common stock purchase warrants are for a total
of 55,000,000 common shares of the buyer at an exercise price of $ 0.01 per share. The warrants are subject to standard anti-dilution provisions.
The warrants are not exercisable until on or after six months from the issuance date and no later than on or before the third anniversary
of the issuance date. The Company may exercise the warrants at any time after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date on a cashless
basis if there is no effective registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares at prevailing market prices by the holder.
The exercise of these warrants is subject to beneficial ownership limits of 4.99% which may be increased by the holder up to 9.99% as
defined in the warrant. Given that the shares carried no intrinsic value at the time of the transaction and that the overall fair value
is de minimis, the Company has not recorded the warrants associated with the transaction.

 The Company recognized a gain on sale of assets of
$ 150,000, which is included in other income.

 The original issue discount is being accrued into
interest income over the term of the note.

 NOTE 17 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 On March 22, 2024, the Company conducted
a private placement offering, selling a combined total of 620
 Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and 2,125
 Series E Convertible Preferred Stock to both existing and new accredited investors. The offering price for both Series D and Series
E was at $ 1,000
 per share with a common equivalent of $ 3.00
 for both classes of shares. The private placement brought in gross proceeds of $ 2,745,000
 to the Company. The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock has already been approved for common stock conversion during the Company's
2023 annual shareholders meeting. The Series E Preferred Stock is subject to shareholder approval for conversion to common stock. As
such, the securities purchase agreement for Series E Convertible Preferred Stock carries standard anti-dilution provisions which remain
in effect until December 31, 2024.

 In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company
also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Purchasers. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall
file with the SEC a registration statement covering the resale by the Purchasers of the shares of common stock into which the shares of
Series D and Series E Preferred Stock are convertible. Subject to certain conditions, the Company must cause the registration statement
to be declared effective by 90 days after closing (or in the event of a full review by the SEC, by 120 days). The Registration Rights
Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. Under
the Purchase Agreement, the Company is required to hold a meeting of shareholders at the earliest practical date, but in no event later
than 120 days after closing (or 150 days in the event of a review of the proxy statement by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC")). As described below, the terms of the Series E Preferred Stock limit its convertibility until the Company receives
shareholder approval (the "Stockholder Approval"). If the Company does not obtain the Stockholder Approval at the first meeting,
it is required to hold shareholder meetings every four months until the Stockholder Approval is obtained.

 The Purchase Agreement for Series E Preferred Stock
also provides that the Company will not, with certain exceptions, sell or issue common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement) on or prior to December 31, 2024 that entitles any person to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price
per share less than the then conversion price of the Series E Preferred Stock without the consent of the Purchaser.

 The Registration Rights Agreement contains provisions
for liquidated damages equal to 1% multiplied by the aggregate subscription amount paid, paid each month, in the event certain deadlines
are missed.
