PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
June __, 2023

The annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of IMAC Holdings, Inc. (“IMAC,” the “Company,” “us,” “we” or “our”) will be held on June __, 2023, at our IMAC Regeneration Center located at 2725 James Sanders Blvd., Paducah, Kentucky 42001, at 11:00 a.m., local time.

Our board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments of that meeting. This Proxy Statement, which was prepared by our management for the Board of Directors, contains information about the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting. All proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions they contain. If you do not specify your voting instructions on the proxy you submit for the Annual Meeting, it will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised at the Annual Meeting by giving our Secretary written notice to that effect. This Proxy Statement and our annual report are first being sent to stockholders on or about May __, 2023.

ABOUT THE MEETING

What is being considered at the annual Meeting?

You will be voting for:

	1.	the election of five directors to the Board of Directors to serve for one year;

	2.	the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a (a) reverse stock split at a ratio not less than 1-for-15 and not greater than 1-for-30, with the exact ratio to be set within that range at the discretion of our Board of Directors without further approval or authorization of our stockholders;

	3.	the ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as auditors of the Company for 2023; and

	4.	the approval, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

In addition, our management will report on our performance and respond to your questions.

The Board of Directors does not intend to present to the Annual Meeting any matters not referred to in this Proxy Statement. If any proposal not set forth in this Proxy Statement should be presented for action at the Annual Meeting and is a matter which should come before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the shares represented by proxies will be voted with respect to such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting them.

When and where is the Annual Meeting going to be held?

The Annual Meeting will be held on June __, 2023, at our IMAC Regeneration Center located at 2725 James Sanders Blvd., Paducah, Kentucky 42001, at 11:00 a.m., local time.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of paper copies of the proxy materials?

We are using the SEC’s Notice and Access model (“Notice and Access”), which allows us to deliver proxy materials over the internet, as the primary means of furnishing proxy materials. We believe Notice and Access provides stockholders with a convenient method to access the proxy materials and vote, while allowing us to conserve natural resources and reduce the costs of printing and distributing the proxy materials. On or about May __, 2023, we began mailing to stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials on the internet and how to vote online. The Notice of Internet Availability is not a proxy card and cannot be used to vote your shares. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability this year, you will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless you request the materials by following the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability.

How many votes must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

Your shares are counted as present at the meeting if you attend the meeting and vote in person or if you properly return a proxy by mail. In order for us to conduct our meeting, a majority of our outstanding shares as of May __, 2023, the record date, must be present at the meeting, in person or by proxy. This is referred to as a quorum. On May __, 2023, we had ________ shares outstanding.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

You may vote if you owned common stock as of the close of business on May __, 2023. Each share of stock is entitled to one vote.

Who is being nominated for director?

The director candidates nominated for election at the Annual Meeting are Jeffrey S. Ervin, our Chief Executive Officer, Matthew C. Wallis, DC, our President, Maurice E. Evans, Michael D. Pruitt and Cary W. Sucoff.

What should I do if I receive more than one proxy card or other set of proxy materials from the Company?

If you hold your shares in multiple accounts or registrations, or in both registered and street name, you will receive a proxy card for each account. Please sign, date and return all proxy cards you receive from the Company. Only your latest dated proxy for each account will be voted. We recommend that you contact your broker and/or our transfer agent to consolidate as many accounts as possible under the same name and address. Our transfer agent is Equity Stock Transfer, tel.: (212) 575-5757.

What is the difference between holding shares as a record holder and as a beneficial owner?

If your shares are registered in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer, you are the “record holder” of those shares. If you are a record holder, these proxy materials will be provided directly to you.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account, a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those shares held in “street name.” If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials have been forwarded to you by that organization. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct such organization on how to vote your shares.

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may:

	1.	Vote by internet. You will find the Control number and the internet address in your Notice of Internet Availability.

	2.	Vote by email. Mark, date, sign the Proxy Card and send to proxy@equitystock.com

	3.	Vote by mail. Mark, date, sign and mail the Proxy Card to Equity Stock Transfer, 237 W 37th St, Suite 602, New York, NY 10018 Attention: Shareholder Services.

	4.	Vote by fax. Mark, sign, and date the Proxy Card and promptly return it by fax to (646) 201-9006, Attention: Shareholder Services.

	5.	Vote in person. Attend and vote at the Annual Meeting.

If you vote by internet, email or fax, please DO NOT mail your proxy card.

If you are a beneficial owner, you must follow the voting procedures of your nominee included with your proxy materials. If your shares are held by a nominee and you intend to vote at the Annual Meeting, please bring with you evidence of your ownership as of the record date (such as a letter from your nominee confirming your ownership or a bank or brokerage firm account statement) and a legal proxy from your nominee authorizing you to vote your shares.

The deadline for submitting a proxy by mail, fax, email or electronically via the internet is 7:00 p.m., Eastern time, on June __, 2023.

Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy?

Under applicable rules, if you do not give instructions to your brokerage firm, it will still be able to vote your shares with respect to certain “discretionary” items, but it will not be allowed to vote your shares with respect to certain “non-discretionary” items. As described under “What vote is required to approve each of the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting?”, the ratification of Cherry Bekaert LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm and, we believe, the amendment to our certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split, are considered to be discretionary items under applicable rules and your brokerage firm will be able to vote on those items even if it does not receive instructions from you, so long as it holds your shares in its name. The remaining items of business at the Annual Meeting are “non-discretionary” and if you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to such proposals, your broker may not vote with respect to these proposals and those votes will be counted as “broker non-votes.” “Broker non-votes” are shares that are held in “street name” by a bank or brokerage firm that indicates on its proxy that it does not have or did not exercise discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter. Please see “What vote is required to approve each of the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting?” for information regarding the vote required to approve the matters being considered at the Annual Meeting and the treatment of broker non-votes.

If you hold your shares directly in your own name, they will not be voted if you do not provide a proxy.

If your shares are held in street name, and you attend the Annual Meeting in person, you must bring an account statement or letter from your bank or brokerage firm showing that you are the beneficial owner of the shares as of the May __, 2023 record date in order to be admitted to the meeting on June __, 2023. To be able to vote your shares held in street name at the Annual Meeting, you will need to obtain a proxy card from the holder of record.

Can I change my mind after I vote?

Yes. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to the voting at the Annual Meeting by submitting a later dated proxy (including a proxy authorization submitted by fax or electronically via the internet prior to the deadline for submitting a proxy by fax or via the internet), by sending a properly signed written notice of such revocation to the Company’s Secretary in advance of the Annual Meeting or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. If your shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, you may change your voting instructions by submitting a later dated voting instruction form to your broker, bank or other nominee or fiduciary, or if you obtained a legal proxy from your broker, bank nominee or fiduciary giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

What if I return my proxy card but do not include voting instructions?

Proxy cards that are signed and returned but do not include voting instructions will be voted “FOR” the election of the nominee directors recommended by the Board of Directors, “FOR” the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split, “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP, and “FOR” the approval, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy?

If you receive more than one proxy, it means that you hold shares of common stock that are registered in more than one account. For example, if you own your shares in various registered forms, such as jointly with your spouse, as trustee of a trust or as custodian for a minor, you will receive, and you will need to sign and return, a separate proxy card for those shares because they are held in a different form of record ownership. Therefore, to ensure that all of your shares are voted, you will need to sign and return each proxy card you receive by mail.

Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on May __, 2023, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Annual Meeting. Stockholders will be asked to present a valid government-issued picture identification, such as a driver’s license or passport. If you hold your shares through an account with a bank, broker or other nominee, you must obtain a valid proxy in your name from your bank, broker or other nominee and bring that proxy to the Annual Meeting, together with a valid government-issued picture identification and a copy of evidence from your bank, broker or other nominee (including a bank or brokerage statement) reflecting your common stock ownership as of May __, 2023, the record date for the Annual Meeting. Cameras and video recording devices will not be permitted at the Annual Meeting. A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting beginning ten days prior to the Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at the IMAC Regeneration Center located at 2725 James Sanders Blvd., Paducah, Kentucky 42001, the Company’s principal place of business, and ending on the day prior to the Annual Meeting.

Do I need an admission ticket to attend the Annual Meeting?

Admission to the Annual Meeting will be by admission ticket only. If you are a stockholder of record and plan to attend the Annual Meeting, retain the top portion of your proxy card as your admission ticket and bring it and a valid government-issued picture identification with you so that you may gain admission to the meeting. If your shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, please contact your nominee and request that the nominee obtain an admission ticket for you or provide you with evidence of your share ownership, which will gain you admission to the Annual Meeting. Stockholders who do not obtain admission tickets in advance of the Annual Meeting may obtain them on the date of the Annual Meeting at the registration desk upon verifying their stock ownership as of the record date. All persons attending the Annual Meeting must present a valid government-issued picture identification along with their admission ticket or proof of beneficial ownership in order to gain admission to the Annual Meeting. Admission to the Annual Meeting will be expedited if admission tickets are obtained in advance. Admission tickets may be issued to others at the Company’s discretion.

What vote is required to approve each of the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting?

Proposal 1: Election of Directors. In an uncontested election, directors of the Company are elected by the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting having a quorum and entitled to vote on the subject matter. The election at the Annual Meeting will be uncontested. You may vote either “FOR” or “AGAINST” any one or more of the nominees. Under a majority of the votes standard, the shares voted “FOR” a nominee must exceed the number of shares voted “AGAINST” that nominee. An abstention will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” a nominee. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to this item, your broker may not vote your shares with respect to the election of directors. Any shares not voted by a stockholder will be treated as broker non-votes, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of the election of directors.

Proposal 2: Approval of Reverse Stock Split. To be approved, this proposal to approve the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio not less than 1-for-15 and not greater than 1-for-30, with the exact ratio to be set within that range at the discretion of our Board of Directors without further approval or authorization of our stockholders must receive an affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

Proposal 3: Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. To be approved, this proposal to ratify our selection of an independent registered public accounting firm must receive an affirmative vote from stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting representing a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. For this proposal, brokerage firms have authority to vote shares of their customers that are held in “street name.” If a broker does not exercise this authority, it will result in a broker non-vote. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Proposal 4: Approval of Executive Compensation. To be approved, this proposal to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers must receive an affirmative vote from stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting representing a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to this proposal, your broker may not vote your shares with respect to this proposal. Any shares not voted by a stockholder will be treated as broker non-votes, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results with respect to this proposal.

How will votes be counted?

Each share of common stock will be counted as one vote according to the instructions contained on a proper proxy card, whether submitted in person, by mail, fax, internet, on a ballot voted in person at the Annual Meeting, or in accordance with the instructions provided by your broker. With respect to all proposals, shares will not be voted in favor of the matter and will not be counted as voting on the matter, if they are broker non-votes. Assuming the presence of a quorum, abstentions and broker non-votes for a particular proposal will not be counted as votes cast to determine the outcome of a particular proposal.

Who will count the votes?

Representatives of Equity Stock Transfer, LLC, the transfer agent for our common stock, will tabulate the votes.

Will my vote be kept confidential?

Yes, your vote will be kept confidential and we will not disclose your vote, unless (1) we are required to do so by law (including in connection with the pursuit or defense of a legal or administrative action or proceeding) or (2) there is a contested election for the Board of Directors.

How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote on the proposals?

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote on the proxy card:

“FOR” the election of each of the five nominees, Jeffrey S. Ervin, Matthew C. Wallis, DC, Maurice E. Evans, Michael D. Pruitt and Cary W. Sucoff, each to serve for a term of one year (Proposal 1);

“FOR” the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a (a) reverse stock split at a ratio not less than 1-for-15 and not greater than 1-for-30, with the exact ratio to be set within that range at the discretion of our Board of Directors without further approval or authorization of our stockholders (Proposal 2);

“FOR” the ratification of the selection of Cherry Bekaert LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023 (Proposal 3); and

“FOR” the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers (Proposal 4).

Why is the executive compensation proposal (Proposal 4) being included among the items to be considered at the Annual Meeting?

We have included the executive compensation proposal (Proposal 4) among the items to be considered at the Annual Meeting in order to satisfy the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Where can I find the voting results?

We will report the voting results in a current report on Form 8-K within four business days after the conclusion of our Annual Meeting.

How and when may I submit a stockholder proposal, including a stockholder nomination for director, for the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting?

If you are interested in submitting a proposal for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting, you need to follow the procedures outlined in Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, or the Exchange Act. To be eligible for inclusion, we must receive your stockholder proposal for our proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders at our principal corporate office in Paducah, Kentucky no later than ________, 2024.

In addition, our bylaws require that we be given advance written notice for nominations for election to our Board of Directors and other matters that stockholders wish to present for action at an annual meeting other than those to be included in our proxy statement under Rule 14a-8. Pursuant to our bylaws, if notice of any stockholder proposal is received before ________, 2024, or after ________, 2024, then the notice will be considered untimely and we are not required to present such proposal at the 2024 Annual Meeting.

The stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth (1) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director (a) his/her name, age, business address and residence address, (b) his/her principal occupation and employment, (c) the number of shares of common stock of IMAC which are owned beneficially or of record by him/her as well as, among other things, any derivative or synthetic instrument, convertible security, put, option, stock appreciation right or similar rights; (d) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding; and (e) any other information relating to the nominee that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the 2024 annual meeting, (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the 2024 annual meeting, (b) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend our bylaws, the language of the proposed amendment), (c) the reasons for conducting such business at the 2024 annual meeting, and (d) any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (3) as to the stockholder giving the notice (a) his/her name and record address and (b) the number of shares of IMAC’s common stock that are owned beneficially or of record by him/her. The notice delivered by a stockholder must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. The stockholder must be a stockholder of record on the date on which he/she gives the notice described above and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the 2024 annual meeting.

These requirements are separate from and in addition to the requirements of the SEC that a stockholder must meet in order to have a stockholder proposal included in our Proxy Statement.

Any proposals, nominations or notices should be sent to:
IMAC Holdings, Inc.
2725 James Sanders Blvd.
Paducah, Kentucky 42001
Attention: Corporate Secretary

In addition to the notice and information requirements contained in our By-laws, to comply with the universal proxy rules (when effective), stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than ______, 2024 (the 60th day prior to the first anniversary of the annual meeting for the preceding year’s annual meeting).

What if I vote for some but not all of the proposals?

Shares of common stock represented by proxies received by the Company (whether received through the return of the proxy card, received by fax, email or via the internet) where the stockholder has provided voting instructions with respect to the proposals described in this Proxy Statement will be voted in accordance with the voting instructions so made. If your proxy card is properly executed and returned but does not contain voting instructions as to one or more of the proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, or if you give your proxy by fax or via the internet without indicating how you want to vote on each of the proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted “FOR” the election of each of the director nominees and “FOR” each other proposal.

If your shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, and you do not properly instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote your shares, your bank, broker or other nominee will not have discretion to direct the voting of your shares at the Annual Meeting and the votes represented by your shares will constitute broker non-votes, except for the proposal to approve the auditor and, we believe, for the proposal to amend the certificate of incorporation. Banks, brokers and other nominees who hold shares of common stock for beneficial owners have the discretion to vote on routine matters, such as the proposals to approve the auditor and to amend the certificate of incorporation, when they have not received voting instructions from those beneficial owners at least ten days prior to the applicable meeting. On a non-routine matter, banks, brokers and other nominees do not have the discretion to direct the voting of the beneficial owners’ shares (as they do on a routine matter), and, if the beneficial owner has not provided voting instructions with respect to that matter, there will be a “broker non-vote” on the matter. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, will be entirely excluded from the vote and will have no effect on the election of directors and will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes present in person or represented by proxy with respect to any of the other proposals. The Company urges you to provide instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee so that your votes may be counted for each proposal to be voted upon. You should provide voting instructions for your shares by following the instructions provided on the vote instruction form that you receive from your bank, broker or other nominee.

How can I access the proxy materials electronically?

Copies of the Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as other materials filed by the Company with the SEC, are available without charge to stockholders on the Company’s corporate website at www.imacregeneration.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAC Holdings, Inc., 2725 James Sanders Blvd., Paducah, Kentucky 42001. You can elect to receive future annual reports, proxy statements and other proxy materials electronically by marking the appropriate box on your proxy card or vote instruction form or by following the instructions provided if you submit a proxy by fax or via the internet.

What are the costs of soliciting these proxies and who will pay?

We will bear the costs of mailing the Proxy Statement and solicitation of proxies by Equity Stock Transfer, which we estimate to be approximately $6,000. In addition to solicitations by mail, our directors, officers and regular employees may solicit proxies by telephone, email and personal communication. No additional remuneration will be paid to any director, officer or employee of the Company for such solicitation. We will request brokers, custodians and fiduciaries to forward proxy soliciting material to the owners of shares of our common stock that they hold in their names. To the extent necessary in order to assure sufficient representation, our officers and regular employees may request the return of proxies personally, by telephone or email. The extent to which this will be necessary depends entirely upon how promptly proxies are received, and stockholders are urged to send in their proxies without delay.

Who can help answer my questions?

We also believe each of our nominees has other attributes necessary to create an effective board, such as high personal and professional ethics, business and professional experience, integrity and values; practical wisdom and judgment; and a commitment to representing the long-term interests of all our stockholders. In addition to these attributes, in each individual’s biography set forth below, we have highlighted specific experience, qualifications, and skills that we believe qualify each individual to serve as a director of IMAC.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote on the proxy card “FOR” the election each of the directors listed above.

PROPOSAL 2:
APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

General

On April __, 2023, our Board of Directors unanimously approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock by combining outstanding shares of common stock into a lesser number of outstanding shares of common stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-15 and not more than 1-for-30 at any time within 12 months following the date of stockholder approval of this Proposal 2, with the exact ratio to be set within this range by our Board of Directors at its sole discretion (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Board of Directors may alternatively elect to abandon such proposed amendment and not effect the Reverse Stock Split authorized by stockholders, in its sole discretion. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the total authorized number of shares of our common stock.

Upon the effectiveness of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation effecting the Reverse Stock Split, the outstanding shares of our common stock will be reclassified and combined into a lesser number of shares such that one share of our common stock will be issued for a specified number of shares in accordance with the ratio for the Reverse Stock Split selected by our Board of Directors.

If this Reverse Stock Split Proposal is approved by our stockholders as proposed, our Board of Directors would have the sole discretion to effect the amendment and Reverse Stock Split at any time within 12 months following the date of such stockholder approval, and to fix the specific ratio for the Reverse Stock Split, provided that the ratio would be not less than 1-for-15 and not more than 1-for-30. Although this Reverse Stock Split Proposal gives the Board of Directors 12 months following stockholder approval to implement the Reverse Stock Split, if we implement the Reverse Stock Split to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the September 18, 2023 deadline, as described below under the heading “Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split,” we must complete the Reverse Split no later than ten business days prior to such deadline. We believe that enabling our Board of Directors to fix the specific ratio of the Reverse Stock Split within the stated range will provide us with the flexibility to implement the Reverse Stock Split in a manner designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for our stockholders. The determination of the ratio of the Reverse Stock Split will be based on a number of factors described below under the heading “Criteria to Be Used for Decision to Apply the Reverse Stock Split.”

The Reverse Stock Split, if approved by our stockholders, would become effective at the time and date set forth in a certificate of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The form of the proposed certificate of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement. Any amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split will include the Reverse Stock Split ratio fixed by our Board of Directors, within the range approved by our stockholders.

The exact timing of the amendment will be determined by our Board of Directors based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to us and our stockholders, but the amendment will not occur after 12 months following the date our stockholders approve the Reverse Stock Split. In addition, our Board of Directors reserves the right, notwithstanding stockholder approval and without further action by our stockholders, to abandon the amendment and the Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State effecting the Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split.

The primary purpose for effecting the Reverse Stock Split is to increase the per share trading price of our common stock so as to:

	●	maintain the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq Capital Market and avoid a delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq Capital Market;

	●	broaden the pool of investors that may be interested in investing in the Company by attracting new investors who would prefer not to invest in shares that trade at lower share prices; and

	●	make our common stock a more attractive investment to institutional investors.

In evaluating the Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors has taken, and will take, into consideration negative factors associated with reverse stock splits. These factors include the negative perception of reverse stock splits held by many investors, analysts and other stock market participants, as well as the fact that the stock price of some companies that have effected reverse stock splits has subsequently declined back to pre-reverse stock split levels. In approving the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors determined that these potential negative factors were outweighed by the potential benefits of the Reverse Stock Split.

Criteria to be Used for Decision to Apply the Reverse Stock Split

If our stockholders approve the Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors will be authorized to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split. The exact ratio of the Reverse Stock Split, within the 1-for-15 to 1-for-30 range, would be determined by our Board of Directors and publicly announced by us prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split. In determining whether to proceed with the reverse split and setting the appropriate ratio for the Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors will consider, among other things, factors such as:

	●	minimum price per share requirements;

	●	the historical trading prices and trading volume of our common stock;

	●	the number of shares of our common stock outstanding;

	●	the then-prevailing and expected trading prices and trading volume of our common stock and the anticipated impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our common stock;

	●	the anticipated impact of a particular ratio on our ability to reduce administrative and transactional costs;

	●	business developments affecting us; and

	●	prevailing general market and economic conditions.

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

Our Board of Directors authorized the Reverse Stock Split with the primary intent of increasing the price of our common stock in order to meet the price criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq Capital Market, as explained below. Our common stock is publicly traded and listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IMAC.” Our Board of Directors believes that, in addition to increasing the price of our common stock to meet the price criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq Capital Market, the Reverse Stock Split would also make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors. Accordingly, for these and other reasons discussed below, we believe that effecting the Reverse Stock Split is in our and our stockholders’ best interests.

On September 21, 2022, we received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department notifying us that, for the prior thirty consecutive business days, the closing bid price for our common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, we were given 180 calendar days, or until March 20, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by March 20, 2023; however, on March 23, 2023, we received a letter from Nasdaq granting our request for a 180-day extension to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time prior to September 18, 2023, the closing bid price of our common stock is at or above $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will notify us that we are in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the matter will be closed. If compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement cannot be demonstrated by September 18, 2023, Nasdaq will notify us that our common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq Capital Market. At that time, we may appeal the relevant delisting determination to a hearings panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. However, there can be no assurance that, if we do appeal the delisting determination by Nasdaq to the hearings panel, that such appeal would be successful.

If we implement a reverse stock split in order to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the Reverse Stock Split must be completed no later than ten business days prior to September 18, 2023. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by September 18, 2023 and we are not eligible for an additional compliance period at that time, the staff will provide written notification to us that our common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, we may appeal the staff’s decision to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”). We would remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market pending the Panel’s decision. There can be no assurance that, if we do appeal a subsequent delisting determination by the staff to the Panel, that such an appeal would be successful.

If we are not able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or do not transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, our common stock could be traded on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it would become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our common stock, and there would likely be a reduction in our coverage by security analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline further. Additionally, the sale or purchase of our common stock would likely be made more difficult and the trading volume and liquidity of our common stock would likely decline. A delisting from the Nasdaq would also result in negative publicity and would negatively impact our ability to raise capital in the future.

In addition, our Board of Directors believes that an increased stock price could encourage investor interest and improve the marketability of our common stock to a broader range of investors, and thus enhance our liquidity. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage firms and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stock, the current share price of our common stock may result in an investor paying transaction costs that represent a higher percentage of total share value than would be the case if our share price were higher.

Although we expect that the Reverse Stock Split will result in an increase in the market price of our common stock, the Reverse Stock Split may not result in a permanent increase in the market price of our common stock, which would be dependent on many factors, including general economic, market and industry conditions and other factors detailed from time to time in the reports we file with the SEC.

Certain Risks Associated with the Reverse Stock Split

There can be no assurance that the total market capitalization of our common stock after the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split will be equal to or greater than the total market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split or that the per share market price of our common stock following the Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Also, we cannot assure you that the Reverse Stock Split would lead to a sustained increase in the trading price of our common stock. The trading price of our common stock may change due to a variety of other factors, including our ability to successfully accomplish our business goals, market conditions and the market perception of our business. You should also keep in mind that the implementation of a reverse stock split does not have an effect on the actual or intrinsic value of our business or a stockholder’s proportional ownership in the Company. However, should the overall value of our common stock decline after the proposed Reverse Stock Split, then the actual or intrinsic value of the shares of our common stock held by you will also proportionately decrease as a result of the overall decline in value.

Further, the liquidity of our common stock may be harmed by the proposed Reverse Stock Split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split, particularly if the expected increase in stock price as a result of the Reverse Stock Split is not sustained. In addition, the proposed Reverse Stock Split may increase the number of stockholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares) of our common stock, creating the potential for such stockholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting sales. If we effect the Reverse Stock Split, the resulting per-share stock price may nevertheless fail to attract institutional investors and may not satisfy the investing guidelines of such investors and, consequently, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not improve.

While our Board of Directors has proposed the Reverse Stock Split to bring the price of our common stock back above $1.00 per share in order to meet the requirements for the continued listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, there is no guarantee that the price of our common stock will not decrease in the future, or that our common stock will remain in compliance with Nasdaq listing standards. There can be no guarantee that the closing bid price of our common stock will remain at or above $1.00 for 10 consecutive business days, whether following the Reverse Stock Split or otherwise, which is required to cure our current Nasdaq listing standard deficiency.

The Reverse Stock Split may result in or contribute towards an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code. If the Company were to undergo an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code, the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carryovers incurred prior to the ownership change against income arising after the ownership change will be significantly limited. In general, an “ownership change” under Section 382 of the Code occurs with respect to the Company if, over a rolling three-year period, the Company’s “5-percent shareholders” increase their aggregate stock ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest stock ownership during the rolling three-year period. Although we do not expect the Reverse Stock Split to result in an ownership change with respect to the Company, because we do not know the number of Company shareholders that may become “5-percent shareholders” as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, it is uncertain at this time whether the Reverse Stock Split will result in an ownership change or the extent to which the Reverse Stock Split may contribute towards an ownership change over the rolling three year period following the Reverse Stock Split.

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split

As of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would also adjust and proportionately decrease the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of, and adjust and proportionately increase the exercise price of, all options and warrants and other rights to acquire our common stock. In addition, as of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would adjust and proportionately decrease the total number of shares of our common stock that may be the subject of the future grants under our equity plans, as described further below under the heading “Effects of the Reverse Stock Split on Outstanding Equity Awards.”

The Reverse Stock Split would be effected simultaneously for all outstanding shares of our common stock. The Reverse Stock Split would affect all of our stockholders uniformly and would not change any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for minor adjustment due to the additional net share fraction that will be issued as a result of the treatment of fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, the Company will issue one full share of the post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock to any stockholder who would have been entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split would not change the terms of our common stock. The Reverse Stock Split is not intended as, and would not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” covered by Rule 13e-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Following the Reverse Stock Split, we would continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

Assuming Reverse Stock Split ratios of 1-for-15 and 1-for-30, which reflect the low end and high end of the range that our stockholders are being asked to approve, the following table sets forth (a) the number of shares of our common stock that would be issued and outstanding, (b) the number of shares of our common stock that would be reserved to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights, (c) the number of shares of our common stock that would be reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans (excluding shares reflected in the preceding clause (b)) and (d) the number of shares of common stock authorized under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, each giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split and based on securities outstanding, reserved, or authorized (as applicable) as of May __, 2023.

		Before Reverse Stock Split	Reverse Stock Split Ratio of 1-for-15*	Reverse Stock Split Ratio of 1-for-30*
(a)	Number of Shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
(b)	Number of securities reserved to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights.
(c)	Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding shares reflected in row (b)).

* Does not include adjustments for fractional shares.

If our Board of Directors does not implement the Reverse Stock Split within 12 months following the date of stockholder approval of this Proposal 2, the authority granted in this proposal to implement the Reverse Stock Split would terminate.

Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in this Proposal 2, except to the extent of their ownership in shares of our common stock and securities convertible or exercisable for our common stock, which shares and securities would be subject to the same proportionate adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Reverse Stock Split as all other outstanding shares of our common stock and securities convertible into or exercisable for our common stock.

Maintenance of Ownership Percentage. If the Reverse Stock Split is approved and effected, each stockholder will own a reduced number of shares of common stock. This would affect all of our stockholders uniformly and would not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership in the Company, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in a stockholder owning a fractional share, as described below. The number of stockholders of record would not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split.

Voting Rights. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of the holders of our common stock would not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split, subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this discussion and to the note below regarding the receipt of an additional fraction of a share. For example, a holder of 1% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split would continue to hold 1% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of common stock after the Reverse Stock Split, regardless of the exchange ratio chosen by the Board of Directors.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split on Outstanding Equity Awards. If the Reverse Stock Split is effected, the terms of equity awards under the Company’s incentive plans, including the per share exercise price of options and the number of shares issuable under outstanding awards, will be converted on the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split in proportion to the reverse split ratio of the Reverse Stock Split (subject to adjustment for fractional interests). The Compensation Committee must approve such adjustments, and its determination as to what adjustments shall be made and the extent thereof shall be final, binding and conclusive on all participants of the Company’s incentive plans. In addition, the total number of shares of common stock that may be the subject of future grants under the Company’s incentive plans will be adjusted and proportionately decreased as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. For purposes of illustration, if the Reverse Stock Split is effected at a ratio of 1-for-20, the number of remaining shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the Company’s incentive plans after the Reverse Stock Split would be approximately ______. Additionally, a pre-Reverse Stock Split of unvested restricted stock unit representing the right to receive 20,000 shares of common stock upon vesting would be converted into a post-Reverse Stock Split restricted stock unit representing the right to receive 1,000 shares of common stock upon vesting. As of the Record Date, the Company had ______ remaining shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans.

Procedure for Effecting the Reverse Stock Split

If our stockholders approve the Reverse Stock Split, and if our Board of Directors still believes that a Reverse Stock Split is in the best interests of us and our stockholders, our Board of Directors will determine the ratio of the Reverse Stock Split to be implemented and we will publicly announce the ratio selected by our Board of Directors and file the certificate of amendment effecting the Reverse Stock Split with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The form of the proposed certificate of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement. Any amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split will include the Reverse Stock Split ratio fixed by our Board of Directors, within the range approved by our stockholders.

The combination of, and reduction in, the number of shares of our outstanding common stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will occur automatically and without any action on the part of our stockholders at the date and time set forth in the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split following filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, our transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer, acting as our “exchange agent” for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates, will mail each stockholder of record a transmittal form accompanied by instructions specifying other details of the exchange. Upon receipt of the transmittal form, each stockholder should surrender the certificates representing our common stock prior to the Reverse Stock Split in accordance with the applicable instructions. Each holder who surrenders certificates will receive new certificates representing the whole number of shares of our common stock that he or she holds as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. New certificates will not be issued to a stockholder until the stockholder has surrendered his or her outstanding certificate(s) and submitted with the properly completed and executed transmittal form to the exchange agent. If your shares are held in street name at a brokerage firm or financial institution, we intend to treat you in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers or other nominees will be instructed to implement the exchange of shares required by the combination resulting from the Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding common stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing substitution of certificates, or book entries, representing the former number shares of common stock for certificates, or book entries, representing the reduced number of shares resulting from the combination. If you hold your shares with a bank, broker or other nominee and if you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact your bank, broker or nominee.

Any stockholder whose stock certificate has been lost, destroyed or stolen will be entitled to a new stock certificate only after complying with the requirements that we and our transfer agent customarily apply in connection with replacing lost, stolen or destroyed stock certificates.

No service charges, brokerage commissions or transfer taxes shall be payable by any holder of any old certificate, except that if any new certificate is to be issued in a name other than that in which the old stock certificate(s) are registered, it will be a condition of such issuance that (i) the person requesting such issuance must pay to us any applicable transfer taxes or establish to our satisfaction that such taxes have been paid or are not payable, (ii) the transfer complies with all applicable federal and state securities laws and (iii) the surrendered stock certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer.

STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATES AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT THEIR STOCK CERTIFICATES UNTIL THEY RECEIVE A TRANSMITTAL FORM FROM OUR TRANSFER AGENT.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, the Company will issue one full share of the post-Reverse Stock Split common stock to any stockholder who would have been entitled to receive a fractional share of common stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Each holder of common stock will hold the same percentage of the outstanding common stock immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as that stockholder did immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, except for minor adjustment due to the additional net share fraction that will need to be issued as a result of the treatment of fractional shares.

No Appraisal Rights

No action is proposed herein for which the laws of the State of Delaware, or our Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, provide a right to our stockholders to dissent and obtain appraisal of, or payment for, such stockholders’ capital stock.

Accounting Matters

The Reverse Stock Split would not affect the par value of our common stock per share, which would remain $0.001 par value per share, while the number of outstanding shares of common stock would decrease in accordance with the Reverse Stock Split ratio selected by our Board of Directors. As a result, as of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, the stated capital attributable to common stock on our balance sheet would decrease and the additional paid-in capital account on our balance sheet would increase by an offsetting amount. Following the Reverse Stock Split, reported per share net income or loss would be higher because there would be fewer shares of common stock outstanding and we would adjust historical per share amounts set forth in our future financial statements. The common stock held in treasury will be reduced in proportion to the Reverse Stock Split ratio selected by our Board of Directors.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to us and to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold shares of our common stock as capital assets (i.e., for investment) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion is based upon current U.S. tax law, which is subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and differing interpretations. Any such change may cause the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to vary substantially from the consequences summarized below. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the matters discussed below and there can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our common stock that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation (or any other entity or arrangement treated as a corporation) created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (1) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and all of its substantial decisions are subject to the control of one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code” )), or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances or to stockholders who may be subject to special tax treatment under the Code, including, without limitation, dealers in securities, commodities or foreign currency, persons who are treated as non-U.S. persons for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, banks, financial institutions, small business investment companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, retirement plans, persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, traders that mark-to-market their securities or persons who hold their shares of our common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other risk reduction transaction. If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our common stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership) and a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of such partnership. Accordingly, partnerships (and other entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holding our common stock and the partners in such entities should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to them.

The state and local tax consequences, alternative minimum tax consequences, non-U.S. tax consequences and U.S. estate and gift tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split are not discussed herein and may vary as to each U.S. Holder. Furthermore, the following discussion does not address any tax consequences of transactions effectuated before, after or at the same time as the Reverse Stock Split, whether or not they are in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. This discussion should not be considered as tax or investment advice, and the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split may not be the same for all stockholders. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to understand their individual federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences.

Tax Consequences to the Company. We believe that the Reverse Stock Split should constitute a reorganization under Section 368(a) (1)(E) of the Code. Accordingly, we should not recognize taxable income, gain or loss in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.

Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders. Subject to the discussion below regarding the receipt of a fractional share, a U.S. Holder generally should not recognize gain or loss as a result of the Reverse Stock Split for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A U.S. Holder’s aggregate adjusted tax basis in the shares of our common stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split should equal the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the shares of our common stock exchanged therefor (increased by the amount of gain or income recognized, if any, attributable to the rounding up of a fractional share, as discussed below). The U.S. Holder’s holding period in the shares of our common stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split should include the holding period in the shares of our common stock exchanged therefor (except with respect to any fractional share of our common stock received, as discussed below). U.S. Treasury Regulations provide detailed rules for allocating the tax basis and holding period of shares of common stock surrendered in a recapitalization to shares received in such recapitalization. A U.S. Holder that acquired shares of our common stock on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of the tax basis and holding period from shares of common stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split to shares received in the Reverse Stock Split.

Each fractional share issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split that is attributable to the rounding up of fractional shares to the nearest whole number of shares may be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a disproportionate distribution. If so treated, a U.S. Holder that receives a fractional share of our common stock attributable to the rounding up of a fractional share to the nearest whole number of shares should recognize dividend income in an amount equal to the fair market value of such fractional share to the extent of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, and to the extent that any portion of the distribution exceeds such current or accumulated earnings and profits, such portion will be treated as a return of tax basis and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of property. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in any such fractional share commences on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split.

The U.S. federal income tax discussion set forth above does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular stockholder in light of such stockholder’s circumstances and income tax situation. Accordingly, we urge you to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to all of the potential U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences to you of the Reverse Stock Split.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.

Vote Required

The proposal to approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the reverse stock split will be approved upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “against” this proposal.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote on the proxy card “FOR” the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split.

PROPOSAL 3:
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF CHERRY BEKAERT LLP AS AUDITORS FOR 2022

Our Audit Committee charter provides that the Audit Committee shall appoint annually a firm of independent registered public accountants to serve as auditors. The Audit Committee has appointed Cherry Bekaert LLP (“Cherry Bekaert”) to act as auditors for our year ending December 31, 2023.

If this proposal is not approved at the annual meeting, our Audit Committee will reconsider the selection of Cherry Bekaert for the ensuing year, but may determine that continued retention of Cherry Bekaert is in our company’s and our stockholders’ best interests. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in our company’s and our stockholders’ best interests. See “Audit Fees” below for further information.

We expect representatives of Cherry Bekaert to be present telephonically at the Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will also be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Board Recommendation

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that our stockholders vote “FOR” ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert as our independent registered public accounting firm for our year ending December 31, 2023 on the proxy card.

PROPOSAL 4:
ADVISORY, NON-BINDING VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Section 14A of the Exchange Act requires that we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC.

Our compensation programs are designed to effectively align our executives’ interests with the interests of our stockholders by focusing on long-term equity incentives that correlate with the growth of sustainable long-term value for our stockholders. Stockholders are urged to read the section titled “Executive Compensation” in this Proxy Statement, which discusses how our executive compensation policies and practices implement our compensation philosophy and contains tabular information and narrative discussion about the compensation of our named executive officers. Our Compensation Committee believes that the objectives of our executive compensation program, as they relate to our named executive officers, are appropriate for a company of our size and stage of development and that our compensation policies and practices help meet those objectives. In addition, our Compensation Committee believes that our executive compensation program, as it relates to our named executive officers, achieves an appropriate balance between fixed compensation and variable incentive compensation. Our Board of Directors and our Compensation Committee believe that our policies and practices are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our compensation program goal. Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.

The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC.

Based on the above, we request that stockholders indicate their support, on a non-binding advisory basis, for the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement by voting “FOR” the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of IMAC Holdings, Inc. approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to IMAC Holdings, Inc.’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Executive Compensation section, the compensation tables and the narrative discussion in IMAC Holdings, Inc.’s 2022 proxy statement.”

As an advisory vote, this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board of Directors and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Leadership

Jeffrey S. Ervin serves as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. As Chairman, Mr. Ervin leads the Board of Directors in its discussions. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ervin responsible for implementing the Company’s strategic and operating objectives and day-to-day decision-making related to such implementation.

The Board of Directors currently has three standing committees (audit, compensation, and nominating and governance) that are chaired and composed entirely of directors who are independent under Nasdaq and SEC rules. Given the role and scope of authority of these committees, and that a majority of the Board of Directors is composed of independent directors, the Board of Directors believes that its leadership structure is appropriate. We select directors as members of these committees with the expectation that they will be free of relationships that might interfere with the exercise of independent judgement.

Our Board of Directors is our Company’s ultimate decision-making body, except with respect to those matters reserved to the stockholders. Our Board of Directors selects our senior management team, which is charged with the conduct of our business. Our Board of Directors acts as an advisor and counselor to senior management and oversees its performance.

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of Directors. The number of directors is determined by our board of directors, subject to the terms of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Our board of directors currently consists of five members, three of whom are independent directors.

Director Independence

Our common stock and warrants are listed for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq listing rules, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees must be independent. Under Nasdaq rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (i) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (ii) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our Board of Directors undertook a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Evans, Pruitt and Sucoff, representing a majority of our directors, do not have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under Nasdaq rules. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with the Company, all transactions in which the Company and any non-employee director had any interest, and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

The independent directors meet as often as necessary to fulfill their responsibilities, including meeting at least twice annually in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct (“Ethics Code”) that applies to all our officers, directors, employees, and contractors. The Ethics Code contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics and compliance with applicable law, and is intended to qualify as a “code of ethics” within the meaning of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 406 of Regulation S-K. Day-to-day compliance with the Ethics Code is overseen by the Company compliance officer appointed by our Board of Directors. If we make any substantive amendments to the Ethics Code or grant any waiver from a provision of the Ethics Code to any director or executive officer, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website at https://ir.imacregeneration.com.

Board of Directors Meetings

There were __ meetings of the Board of Directors in 2022. All directors attended all meetings of the Board of Directors either in-person or telephonically.

Board Committees

Our Board of Directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and governance committee. Under Nasdaq rules, the membership of the audit committee is required to consist entirely of independent directors. The following is a brief description of our committees.

Audit committee. In accordance with our audit committee charter, our audit committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes and our internal controls over financial reporting; evaluates the independent public accounting firm’s qualifications, independence and performance; engages and provides for the compensation of the independent public accounting firm; approves the retention of the independent public accounting firm to perform any proposed permissible non-audit services; reviews our consolidated financial statements; reviews our critical accounting policies and estimates and internal controls over financial reporting; and discusses with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the results of the annual audit and the reviews of our quarterly consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit committee members meet the requirements for financial literacy under the current requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. In addition, the Board of Directors has determined that Michael D. Pruitt is qualified as an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of SEC regulations. We have made this determination based on information received by our Board of Directors, including questionnaires provided by the members of our audit committee. The audit committee is composed of Messrs. Pruitt (Chairman), Evans and Sucoff.

Compensation committee. In accordance with our compensation committee charter, our compensation committee reviews and recommends policies relating to compensation and benefits of our officers and employees, including reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other senior officers, evaluating the performance of these officers in light of those goals and objectives and setting compensation of these officers based on such evaluations. The compensation committee also administers the issuance of stock options and other awards under our equity-based incentive plans. We believe that the composition of our compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our compensation committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. We intend to comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to us. The compensation committee is composed of Messrs. Evans (Chairman) and Pruitt.

Nominating and governance committee. In accordance with our nominating and governance committee charter, our nominating and governance committee recommends to the Board of Directors nominees for election as directors, and meets as necessary to review director candidates and nominees for election as directors; recommends members for each committee of the Board of Directors; oversee corporate governance standards and compliance with applicable listing and regulatory requirements; develops and recommends to the Board of Directors governance principles applicable to the Company; and oversee the evaluation of the Board of Directors and its committees. We believe that the composition of our nominating and governance committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our compensation committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. We intend to comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to us. The nominating and governance committee is composed of Messrs. Sucoff (Chairman) and Evans.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our compensation committee is an executive officer or employee of our company. None of our executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board of Directors or compensation committee.

Limitations on Director and Officer Liability and Indemnification

Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

	●	any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;

	●	acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

	●	unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or

	●	any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Any repeal of or modification to our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws may not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director or officer occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. Our bylaws will also provide that we shall advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in connection with their services to us, regardless of whether our bylaws permit such indemnification.

We have entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, provide that we will indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of such person’s services as one of our directors or executive officers, or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that are contained in our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions. There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving one of our directors or executive officers as to which indemnification is required or permitted, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.

Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors, as a whole and also at the committee level, has an active role in managing enterprise risk. The members of our Board of Directors participate in our risk oversight assessment by receiving regular reports from members of senior management and the Company compliance officer appointed by our Board of Directors on areas of material risk to us, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, and strategic and reputational risks. The compensation committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. The audit committee oversees management of financial risks, as well as our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The nominating and governance committee manages risks associated with the independence of our Board of Directors and potential conflicts of interest. Members of the management team report directly to our Board of Directors or the appropriate committee. The directors then use this information to understand, identify, manage, and mitigate risk. Once a committee has considered the reports from management, the chairperson will report on the matter to our full Board of Directors at the next meeting of the Board of Directors, or sooner if deemed necessary. This enables our Board of Directors and its committees to effectively carry out its risk oversight role.

Communications with our Board of Directors

Any stockholder may send correspondence to our Board of Directors, c/o IMAC Holdings, Inc., 2725 James Sanders Blvd., Paducah, Kentucky 42001 and our telephone number is (844) 266-IMAC (4622). Our management will review all correspondence addressed to our Board of Directors, or any individual director, and forward all such communications to our Board of Directors or the appropriate director prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting of our Board of Directors following the receipt of the communication, unless the Corporate Secretary decides the communication is more suitably directed to Company management and forwards the communication to Company management. Our management will summarize all stockholder correspondence directed to our Board of Directors that is not forwarded to our Board of Directors and will make such correspondence available to our Board of Directors for its review at the request of any member of our Board of Directors.

Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers

None of our directors or executive officers or their respective associates or affiliates is currently indebted to us.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and holders of more than 10% of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our securities (Forms 3, 4 and 5) with the SEC. To the best of our knowledge, based solely on a review of the Section 16(a) reports and written statements from executive officers and directors, for the year ended December 31, 2022, all required reports of executive officers, directors and holders of more than 10% of our equity securities were filed on time, except for any such reports which may have been filed late due to administrative delays.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our directors and executive officers.

Director Attendance at Annual Meetings

Our Board of Directors encourages director attendance at our annual meetings of stockholders.

Policies and Procedures for Transactions with Related Persons

Our Board of Directors has adopted a written related person transaction policy setting forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. Related persons include any executive officer, director or a holder of more than 5% of our common stock, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. Related person transactions refers to any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which (i) we were or are to be a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and (iii) a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Related person transactions include, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness, and employment by us of a related person, in each case subject to certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

The policy provides that in any related person transaction, our audit committee and Board of Directors will consider all of the available material facts and circumstances of the transaction, including: the direct and indirect interests of the related persons; in the event the related person is a director (or immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated), the impact that the transaction will have on a director’s independence; the risks, costs and benefits of the transaction to us; and whether any alternative transactions or sources for comparable services or products are available. After considering all such facts and circumstances, our audit committee and Board of Directors will determine whether approval or ratification of the related person transaction is in our best interests. For example, if our audit committee determines that the proposed terms of a related person transaction are reasonable and at least as favorable as could have been obtained from unrelated third parties, it will recommend to our Board of Directors that such transaction be approved or ratified. In addition, if a related person transaction will compromise the independence of one of our directors, our audit committee may recommend that our Board of Directors reject the transaction if it could affect our ability to comply with securities laws and regulations or Nasdaq listing requirements.

Related Party Transactions

On June 1, 2018, we entered into a note payable to the Edward S. Bredniak Revocable Trust, the trustee of which is Edward S. Bredniak, a former director of our company, in the amount of up to $2,000,000. An existing note payable with this entity with an outstanding balance of $379,675.60 was combined into a new note payable. The note carried an interest rate of 10% per annum and all outstanding balances were due and payable 13 months after the closing of this offering. On June 28, 2019, we entered into an amendment to this note (the “Amendment”). Among other things, the Amendment provided for the extension of the maturity of the note to January 5, 2021, reduced the principal amount of the note from $2,000,000 to $1,750,000, corrected the name of the lender under the note from The Edward S. Bredniak Revocable Trust u/a dated 8/14/2015 to Edward S. Bredniak, and provided for the payment of any outstanding amounts under the note which exceed $1,750,000 as of the date of the Amendment. The proceeds of this note were used to satisfy ongoing working capital needs, expenses related to the preparation for our initial public offering, equipment and construction costs related to new clinic locations, and potential business combination and transaction expenses. In November 2020, we entered into an amendment to this note (the “Amendment 2.0”) that provided for the extension of the maturity of the note to January 5, 2022. In March 2021, we paid this note in full.

AUDIT FEES

As described above, we have appointed Cherry Bekaert to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Previous Auditor

On August 26, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Company concluded a competitive review process of independent registered public accounting firms. As a result of this process and following careful deliberation, on August 26, 2021, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of Daszkal Bolton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective as of such date. The Company provided Daszkal Bolton LLP with formal notice of such dismissal on August 27, 2021.

The reports of Daszkal Bolton LLP on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding Daszkal Bolton’s dismissal, there were: (i) no disagreements (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) with Daszkal Bolton LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Daszkal Bolton’s satisfaction, would have caused Daszkal Bolton to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years; and (ii) no reportable events (as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

On August 26, 2021, the Audit Committee engaged Cherry Bekaert, as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding Cherry Bekaert’s engagement, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Cherry Bekaert regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Cherry Bekaert concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

Audit and Other Fees

The following table sets forth the aggregate accounting fees paid by us for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021. The below fees were paid to the firm Daszkal Bolton LLP and Cherry Bekaert. All non-audit related services in the table were pre-approved and/or ratified by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors:

Type of Fees	Year ended December 31, 2022		Year ended December 31, 2021
Audit fees	$	217,000	$	195,500
Audit related fees		45,240		24,720
Tax fees		3,500		15,000
Total	$	265,740	$	235,220

Types of Fees Explanation

Audit Fees. Audit fees were incurred for accounting services rendered for the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and reviews of quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Audit Related Fees. We incurred fees in connection with accounting reviews for Form-3 Comfort Letters to Underwriters and technical consultations.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Services by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Section 10A(i)(1) of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules require that all auditing and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our principal accountants be approved in advance by the audit committee of the Board of Directors. Pursuant to Section 10A(i)(3) of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules, the audit committee has established procedures by which the Chairman of the audit committee may pre-approve such services provided that the pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services to be rendered and the Chairman reports the details of the services to the full audit committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

The audit committee has considered the services provided by Cherry Bekaert LLP as disclosed above in the captions “audit fees” and has concluded that such services are compatible with the independence of Cherry Bekaert LLP as our principal accountant.

Our Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

As of the end of 2022, the Audit Committee consisted of three members of the Board of Directors of IMAC Holdings, Inc., each of whom was independent of the Company and its management, as defined in the NASDAQ Listing Rules. The Board of Directors has adopted, and periodically reviews, the audit committee charter. The charter specifies the scope of the audit committee’s responsibilities and how it carries out those responsibilities.

The audit committee reviews management’s procedures for the design, implementation, and maintenance of a comprehensive system of internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures focused on the accuracy of our financial statements and the integrity of our financial reporting systems. The audit committee provides the Board of Directors with the results of its examinations and recommendations and reports to the Board of Directors as it may deem necessary to make the Board of Directors aware of significant financial matters requiring the attention of the Board of Directors.

The audit committee does not conduct auditing reviews or procedures. The audit committee monitors management’s activities and discusses with management the appropriateness and sufficiency of our financial statements and system of internal control over financial reporting. Management has primary responsibility for the Company’s financial statements, the overall reporting process and our system of internal control over financial reporting. Our independent registered public accounting firm audits the financial statements prepared by management, expresses an opinion as to whether those financial statements fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and discusses with the audit committee any issues they believe should be raised with us.

The audit committee reviews reports from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to their annual audit and approves in advance all audit and non-audit services provided by our independent auditors in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. The audit committee also considers, in advance of the provision of any non-audit services by our independent registered public accounting firm, whether the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining their independence.

In accordance with its responsibilities, the audit committee has reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the process designed to achieve compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The audit committee has also discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm, Cherry Bekaert, the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16, “Communications with audit committees” issued by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). The audit committee has received the written disclosures and letter from Cherry Bekaert required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the communications of Cherry Bekaert with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Cherry Bekaert its independence, including whether the provision by Cherry Bekaert of non-audit services, as applicable, is compatible with its independence.

Based on these reviews and discussions, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 be included in Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In considering our executive compensation policies and practices, we seek to balance our interest in limiting operating expenses and minimizing stockholder dilution with our interest in using compensation to attract, retain and motivate employees. In reconciling these competing concerns, we strive to act in the long-term best interests of the Company and our stockholders. The elements of our executives’ total compensation are base salary, cash incentive awards, stock incentive awards, bonuses and other employee benefits.

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors has considered whether our executive compensation program creates risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and has concluded that it does not. In reaching its conclusion, the Committee considered the Company’s strategic goals and operational practices and evaluated the design of its compensation programs to assess whether these programs foster a business environment that might drive inappropriate decision-making or behavior. The majority of our management’s cash compensation typically consists primarily of base salary, which we believe mitigates inappropriate or excessive risk-taking that could harm stockholder value. To the extent that executives receive equity incentive awards, historically such awards have been long-term awards that were intended to align executives’ interests with those of our stockholders.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth summary compensation information for the following persons: (i) all persons serving as our principal executive officer during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and (ii) our two other most highly compensated executive officers who received compensation during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 of at least $100,000 and who were executive officers on December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The compensation committee approved their salaries to increase to $350,000 and $300,000⁽¹⁾ annually, respectively. In addition, each executive may be entitled to receive, at the sole discretion of our board of directors, cash bonuses based on the executive meeting and exceeding performance goals of the company.

In the event any of the employment agreements are terminated by us without cause, such executive will be entitled to compensation for the balance of the term.

In the event of a change of control of our company, Messrs. Ervin and Wallis may terminate their employment within six months after such event and will be entitled to continue to be paid pursuant to the terms of their respective employment agreements.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding stock options to purchase 274,160 shares of its common stock which were granted as non-qualified stock options to various employees of the Company. These options vest over a period of four years, with 25% vesting after one year and the remaining 75% vesting in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months, are exercisable for a period of ten years, and enable the holders to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at the exercise price of award. The per-share fair values of these options are range from $1.19 to $4.04 based on Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model.

On October 20, 2020, the Company granted an aggregate of 300,000 RSUs to Board members with these RSUs vesting in eight equal quarterly installments commencing on February 1, 2021, provided the Board members remain directors of the Company. Effective October 2021, the vesting schedule was amended to a one-year vesting period. As of March 31, 2002, all these granted RSUs were vested and issued to the Board members.

On January 30, 2021, the Company granted an aggregate of 17,000 RSUs to non-executive staff and contractors with these RSUs vesting after one year. As of March 31, 2022, all these granted RSUs were vested and issued.

On October 27, 2021, the Company granted 10,000 RSUs to a consultant that vested immediately.

On February 21, 2022, the Company granted 100,000 RSUs to an executive that vested immediately.

On September 22, 2022, the Company granted an aggregate of 300,000 RSUs to Board members with immediate vesting.

On October 1, 2022, the Company reserved an aggregate of 512,000 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to certain employees and executives with a one-year vesting period.

Outstanding Equity Awards at December 31, 2022

(1)	Four-year vesting with four equal annual installments

2018 Incentive Compensation Plan

Under our 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), adopted by our board of directors and holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock in May 2018, 1,000,000 shares of common stock (subject to certain adjustments) are reserved for issuance upon exercise of stock options and grants of other equity awards. The Plan is designed to serve as an incentive for attracting and retaining qualified and motivated employees, officers, directors, consultants and other persons who provide services to us. The compensation committee of our board of directors administers and interprets the Plan and is authorized to grant stock options and other equity awards thereunder to all eligible employees of our company, including non-employee consultants to our company and directors.

The Plan provides for the granting of “incentive stock options” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock, dividend equivalents, bonus stock and awards in lieu of cash compensation, other stock-based awards and performance awards. Options may be granted under the Plan on such terms and at such prices as determined by the compensation committee of the board, except that the per share exercise price of the stock options cannot be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Each option will be exercisable after the period or periods specified in the stock option agreement, but all stock options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the Plan are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The compensation committee of the board has the authority to amend or terminate the Plan, provided that no amendment shall be made without stockholder approval if such stockholder approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement. Unless terminated sooner, the Plan will terminate ten years from its effective date.

We believe that our compensation practices are competitive and consistent with market practices and that our use of equity compensation is an important driver of our success. Without the availability of the additional shares requested by this Amendment, the Company will be at a significant competitive disadvantage and we expect that the equity-based components of our compensation program would need to be supplemented with additional cash incentives which we believe may (1) not offer the same benefits with respect to stockholder alignment and (2) impact our efforts to preserve liquidity.

Equity Compensation Plan Summary

The following table provides information as of December 31, 2022 relating to our equity compensation plan:

Plan Category	Number of Securities to be Issued Upon Exercise of Outstanding Equity Grants		Weighted-Average Exercise Price of Outstanding Options		Number of Securities Remaining Available for Further Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans (Excluding Securities Reflected in the First Column)
Equity compensation plan approved by security holders ⁽¹⁾		274,160	$	2.89		282,450
Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders		-	$	-		-
Total		274,160	$	2.89		282,450

(1)	Consists solely of the 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan.

Director Compensation

We compensate each non-employee director through annual stock option grants and by paying a cash fee for each board of directors and committee meeting attended. Our directors in 2021, Messrs. Evans, Pruitt, and Sucoff, were paid $2,000 each per quarter in the beginning of 2021. The directors then amended compensation effective April 2021 and were paid $11,250 each per quarter.

_______________________________________________

IMAC HOLDINGS, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify that:

1. The name of the corporation is: IMAC Holdings, Inc. (the “Corporation”). The original Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 23, 2018 (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).

2. This amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation effected by this Certificate of Amendment is to reflect a reverse stock split, with a ratio of 1-for-[___], of the Corporation’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, so that each [___] issued and outstanding shares or treasury shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock will become one (1) issued and outstanding share or treasury share of the Corporation’s Common Stock.

3. Pursuant to Section 242 of the DGCL, to accomplish the foregoing amendment, this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation amends and restates Section “4.1 Authorized Capital Stock.” of Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation to read in its entirety as follows:

“4.1 Authorized Capital Stock. The aggregate number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue is Sixty-Five Million (65,000,000), of which Sixty Million (60,000,000) shares are common stock having a par value of $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and Five Million (5,000,000) shares are preferred stock having a par value of $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

Simultaneously with this Certificate of Amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), every [___] shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding or held as treasury shares immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Old Common Stock”) shall automatically be reclassified and continued, without any action on the part of the holder thereof (the “Reverse Split”), as one (1) share of post-Reverse Split Common Stock (the “New Common Stock”). The Corporation shall round up any fractional shares of New Common Stock, on account of the Reverse Split, to the nearest whole share of Common Stock.

Each stock certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of the Old Common Stock shall, from and after the Effective Time, be exchanged for a stock certificate that represents that number of shares of New Common Stock into which the shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified; provided however, that the Reverse Split will occur without any further action on the part of the stockholders and without regard to the date or dates on which certificates formerly representing shares of Old Common Stock are physically surrendered. Upon the consummation of the Reverse Split, each certificate formerly representing shares of Old Common Stock, until surrendered and exchanged for a certificate representing shares of New Common Stock will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of the resulting number of shares of New Common Stock.”

4. The amendments of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation effected by this Certificate of Amendment were duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon by written consent in accordance with the provisions of Sections 242 and 228 of the DGCL.

5. The foregoing amendment shall be effective as of the time this Certificate of Amendment is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
