PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON JUNE 5, 2019

This proxy statement is being furnished to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SG Blocks, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”). The 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held on Wednesday, June 5, 2019, at 11:00 a.m., local time, at the offices of Thompson Hine LLP (“Thompson Hine”), 335 Madison Avenue, 12th Floor, New York, New York 10017. The Company’s telephone number is (646) 240-4235.

ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

The purpose of the Annual Meeting and the matters to be acted upon are set forth under the headings Proposal 1 — Election of Directors, Proposal 2 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, Proposal 3 — Advisory Approval of Named Executive Officer Compensation and Proposal 4 — Approval of an Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Decrease the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock below and in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. You are requested to promptly vote by proxy by following the instructions provided on the proxy card, which was mailed to you on or about April 26, 2019. You may vote online, by telephone or by mailing your signed proxy card in the enclosed return envelope.

How is the Company distributing the proxy materials?

The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) permit us to make our proxy materials available in one of two ways: the “full set delivery” option or the “notice only” option. A company may use a single method for all of its stockholders or may use both methods. We have elected to use the full set delivery option to deliver the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting to each stockholder of record as of the Record Date (as defined below). As such, on or about April 26, 2019, we will be mailing paper copies of our proxy materials to stockholders, as well as providing access to the proxy materials at www.sgblocks.com or www.astproxyportal.com/ast/21306. We may decide not to use the full set delivery option in the future; however, you will still have the right to request a free set of proxy materials by mail.

Who may vote at and attend the Annual Meeting?

You are entitled to notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting if you owned shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), as of the close of business on April 18, 2019, which has been fixed as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the Annual Meeting.

On the Record Date, 4,260,041 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, held by 92 holders of record. Holders of record of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share.

All stockholders as of the Record Date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Annual Meeting. If you attend the Annual Meeting in person, you will be asked to present photo identification (such as a state-issued driver’s license) and proof of your ownership of shares of Common Stock before entering the meeting. Please note that if you hold shares in “street name” (through a bank or broker, for example), you will need to bring a recent brokerage statement or a letter from your broker or bank reflecting your ownership of our Common Stock as of the Record Date. If you want to vote shares you hold in street name in person at the Annual Meeting, you must bring a legal proxy in your name from the broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of our Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum. As of the Record Date, 4,260,041 shares of Common Stock constituted a majority. Broker “non-votes” (as described below), abstentions and proxies marked “withhold” for the election of directors will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business.

What are broker “non-votes”?

If you hold your shares through a broker, your broker’s ability to vote your shares for you is governed by applicable stock exchange rules. Without your specific instruction, a broker or other nominee may only vote your shares on routine proposals. Your broker will submit a proxy card on your behalf, but leave your shares unvoted on non-routine proposals — this is known as a “broker non-vote.” Without your specific instruction, your broker will not vote your shares on Proposal 1 — Election of Directors, Proposal 3 — Advisory Approval of Named Executive Officer Compensation or Proposal 4 — Approval of an Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Decrease the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock, which are considered “non-routine” proposals under applicable stock exchange rules. Non-votes will not be counted “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposal 1, Proposal 2 or Proposal 3; however, broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” Proposal 4. Proposal 2 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm is a routine matter on which your broker will vote without your instruction. Therefore, broker non-votes are not expected to occur with respect to Proposal 2. Broker non-votes will still be counted toward the quorum.

How will abstentions be counted?

Generally, choosing to “ABSTAIN” from a vote is counted as a vote “AGAINST” a particular proposal. However, a “WITHHOLD” vote for the election of any director (as in Proposal No. 1 of this proxy statement) will not be counted as a “FOR” or “AGAINST” vote. Even if you choose to “ABSTAIN” (or “WITHHOLD”) on any or every proposal, your shares will still be counted toward the quorum.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

For Proposal 1 — Election of Directors, the nominees for director who receive the most votes cast (also known as a plurality), either in person or by proxy, will be elected. You may vote either FOR all of the nominees, WITHHOLD your vote from all of the nominees or WITHHOLD your vote from any one of the nominees. Votes that are withheld and broker non-votes, if any, will not be included in the vote tally for, and will have no effect on, the election of directors, except to the extent the failure to vote for a nominee results in another nominee receiving a larger number of votes.

Adoption of Proposal 2 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and Proposal 3 — Advisory Approval of Named Executive Officer Compensation requires the affirmative vote of the holders of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote for each of these proposals (meaning that, of the shares represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted “FOR” the proposal for it to be approved). In determining whether Proposals No. 2 and No. 3 have received the requisite number of affirmative votes, abstentions will be included in the vote tally and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the proposals, and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the votes for these proposals.

Proposal 4 — Approval of an Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Decrease the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (meaning that, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, a majority of them must be voted “FOR” the proposal for it to be approved). Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

How do I vote?

To ensure your shares are voted at the meeting, you are urged to provide your proxy instructions promptly online, by telephone or by mailing your signed proxy card in the enclosed envelope. Please refer to the instructions on the proxy card. Authorizing your proxy will not limit your right to attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares in person.

Your proxy (one of the individuals named in your proxy card) will vote your shares per your instructions. If you fail to provide instructions on a properly submitted proxy, your proxy will vote as recommended by the Board, as described below.

If you have shares held by a broker or other nominee, you may instruct your broker or nominee to vote your shares by following the instructions that the broker or nominee provides to you. Most brokers and nominees allow you to vote by mail, telephone and on the Internet. As discussed above, under applicable stock exchange rules, Proposal 1 — Election of Directors, Proposal 3 — Advisory Approval of Named Executive Officer Compensation and Proposal 4 — Approval of an Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Decrease the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock are “non-routine” matters, meaning that brokers or other nominees who have not been furnished voting instructions by their clients will not be authorized to vote in their discretion on those proposals. Proposal 2 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm is considered a “routine” matter, which means brokers or nominees who have not been furnished voting instructions by their clients will be authorized to vote on that proposal.

May I change my vote?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. You may revoke your proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person or by delivering to our Corporate Secretary a duly executed revocation of proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not itself constitute a revocation of a proxy.

How does the Board recommend I vote?

If you do not provide instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board.

The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR”:

• election to our Board of each of the seven director nominees named in this proxy statement;

• ratification of the appointment of Whitley Penn LLP (“Whitley Penn”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2019;

• approval, on an advisory, non-binding basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers; and

• approval of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) to decrease the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 300,000,000 authorized shares to 25,000,000 authorized shares.

We do not expect that any other matters will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If, however, any other matters are properly presented, the persons named as proxies intend to vote on such matters in accordance with their judgment, including any proposal to adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting.

Who pays for expenses incurred in connection with the solicitation of proxies?

We are making this solicitation of proxies and will pay the entire expense of preparing, printing and mailing these proxy materials. Officers and employees of the Company may solicit the return of proxies, but will not receive additional compensation for those efforts. We have engaged Alliance Advisors, LLC to provide various services relating to the solicitation of proxies, including conducting voting campaigns and compiling voting reports, for an aggregate fee of approximately $6,500. We will request that brokers, banks, custodians, nominees, and other fiduciaries send proxy materials to all beneficial owners and, upon request, will reimburse them for their expenses. Solicitations may be made by telephone, e-mail or other electronic means, or in person.

Who can help answer my questions?

If you need assistance with voting or have questions regarding the Annual Meeting, please contact the firm assisting us in the solicitation of proxies: Alliance Advisors, LLC, 200 Broadacres Drive, 3rd Floor, Bloomfield, NJ 07003, toll free phone number 844-885-0178.

PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Annual Meeting, seven nominees will be elected as directors. The Company’s seven nominees are named below. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named in this proposal.

Our Board, based on the recommendation of the independent members of the Board, has nominated each of Paul M. Galvin, Balan R. Ayyar, Yaniv Blumenfeld, Christopher Melton, A. Richard Moore, Jr., James C. Potts and Mahesh S. Shetty to stand for election at the meeting. Each nominee has consented to be named in this proxy statement and to serve as a director if elected. However, if any nominee becomes unable to stand for election at the Annual Meeting, proxies will be voted in favor of the remainder of the nominees and may be voted for substitute nominees, unless our Board chooses to reduce the number of directors serving on the Board.

Each nominee, if elected, will be entitled to serve until the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders and until a successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal.

Director Nomination Process

Because we do not have a standing nominating committee, our independent directors evaluate and recommend director nominees for the Board’s consideration. Each of the director nominees for the Annual Meeting was evaluated and recommended by the independent directors and unanimously approved by the Board.

Director Qualifications

The Board has not established specific criteria or minimum qualifications that must be met by director nominees, but recognizes the value of nominating candidates who bring a variety of experiences, skills, perspectives and backgrounds to Board deliberations. The independent directors, when identifying nominees to serves as directors of the Company, consider each nominee’s qualifications, including educational, business and professional experience, such as real estate, manufacturing and finance, and whether such nominees will satisfy the independence standards under Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. We do not have a set policy or process for considering diversity in identifying nominees, but strive to identity and recruit nominees with a broad diversity of experience, talents, professions, backgrounds, perspective, age, gender, ethnicity and country of citizenship, and who possess the commitment necessary to make a significant contribution to the Company. Board nominees should be committed to enhancing long-term stockholder value and should possess high standards of integrity and ethical behavior. The independent directors may also consider other elements as they deem appropriate.

We believe that the continuing service of qualified incumbent directors promotes stability and continuity in the function of the Board, contributing to the Board’s ability to work as a collective body, while giving us the benefit of the familiarity and insight into our affairs that our directors have accumulated during their tenure. Therefore, the independent directors will generally re-nominate incumbent directors who continue to be qualified for Board service and are willing to continue in such role. If an incumbent director is not standing for re-election or if a vacancy occurs between annual stockholder meetings, the Committee will seek out potential candidates for Board appointment who meet the criteria for selection as a nominee and have the specific qualities or skills being sought. Director candidates will be selected based upon input from the members of the Board, senior management of the Company and, if the Committee deems appropriate, a third-party search firm.

Stockholder Recommendations

We will also consider director candidates submitted in writing by stockholders. A stockholder who wishes to nominate a person for election must provide written notice to the Company in accordance with the procedures set forth in our bylaws. Among other requirements, such notification shall contain certain background information and the consent of each nominee to serve as one our directors, if elected. Stockholder nominations for election to the Board for the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders must be made by written notification received by us no later than Monday, April 6, 2020.

All potential director candidates will be evaluated in the same manner, regardless of the source of the recommendation.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast, either in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting is required for the election of these nominees as directors. You may vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” authority to vote for each of the nominees for director. If you “WITHHOLD” authority to vote with respect to one or more nominees, such vote will have no effect on the election for such nominees. Broker non-votes additionally have no effect on the election for such nominees. Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, if specific instructions are not otherwise given, in favor of each nominee.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF THE NOMINEES LISTED ABOVE AS DIRECTORS.

THE BOARD AND ITS COMMITTEES

Board Leadership Structure

The Board recognizes that one of its key responsibilities is to evaluate and determine its optimal leadership structure so as to provide independent oversight of management. Our Board is currently led by a Chairman of the Board who also serves as our Chief Executive Officer. The Board understands that the right Board leadership structure may vary depending on the circumstances, and our independent directors periodically assess these roles and the Board leadership to ensure the leadership structure best serves the interests of the Company and stockholders.

Mr. Galvin currently holds the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles. We also have a Lead Independent Director elected by the majority of the Board. Mr. Moore currently serves as the Lead Independent Director.

The responsibilities of the Lead Independent Director include, among others: (i) serving as primary intermediary between non-employee directors and management; (ii) approving the agenda and meeting schedules for the Board; (iii) advising the Chairman of the Board as to the quality, quantity and timeliness of the information submitted by management to directors; (iv) recommending director candidates and selections for the membership and chairman position for each committee of the Board; (v) calling meetings of independent directors; and (vi) serving as liaison for consultation and communication with stockholders.

We believe the current leadership structure, with combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles and a Lead Independent Director, best serves the Company and its stockholders at this time. Mr. Galvin possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the Company and the industry and the issues, opportunities and challenges we face, and is best positioned to ensure the most critical business issues are brought for consideration by the Board. In addition, having one leader serving as both the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer provides decisive, consistent and effective leadership, as well as clear accountability to our stockholders and customers. This enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to our stockholders, employees, customers and suppliers, particularly during times of turbulent economic and industry conditions. The Board believes the appointment of a strong Lead Independent Director and the use of regular executive sessions of the non-management directors, along with a majority the Board being composed of independent directors, allow it to maintain effective oversight of management. We believe that the combination of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles is appropriate in the current circumstances and, based on the relevant facts and circumstances, separation of these offices would not serve our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders at this time.

Director Independence

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 requires a majority of a listed company’s board to be comprised of independent directors. In addition, the Nasdaq Listing Rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit and compensation committees be independent under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Audit committee members and compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rules 10A-3 and 10C-1 under the Exchange Act, respectively. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2), a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of the Board, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Exchange Act Rule 10A-3, an Audit Committee member may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the Audit Committee, the Board or any other committee of the Board, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or otherwise be affiliated with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. In order for Compensation Committee members to be considered independent for purposes of Exchange Act Rule 10C-1, the Board must consider all factors specifically relevant to determining whether a director has a relationship to the Company that is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a Compensation Committee member, including, but not limited to: (1) the source of compensation of the director, including any consulting advisory or other compensatory fee paid by the Company to the director; and (2) whether the director is affiliated with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

The Board has reviewed the materiality of any relationship that each of our nominated directors has with the Company and has determined that each of Messrs. Ayyar, Blumenfeld, Melton, Moore and Potts is “independent” in accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Messrs. Galvin and Shetty are not considered independent. As such, we currently have a majority independent Board and fully independent Audit and Compensation Committees.

Sean M. McAvoy and Neal Kaufman, each of who served as a director during 2018, were not considered independent. Mr. Kaufman served as a member of our Compensation Committee until June 2018, pursuant to Nasdaq’s phase-in exemption for newly public companies.

There are no family relationships between any of our directors, director nominees or executive officers.

Board and Committee Responsibilities

Generally

The Board is the ultimate decision-making body of the Company, except with respect to those matters to be decided by the stockholders. It selects the Chief Executive Officer and other members of the senior management team, which is charged with the conduct of the Company’s day-to-day business. The Board acts as an advisor and counselor to senior management and ultimately monitors its performance. The function of the Board to monitor the performance of senior management is facilitated by the presence of non-employee directors who have substantive knowledge of the Company’s business.

Our Board has established a separate standing Audit Committee and Compensation Committee. We do not have a standing nominating committee and instead, as permitted by Nasdaq rules, a majority of the independent directors of the Board recommend director nominees for the consideration of the full Board. Each of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, a copy of which may be viewed on the Company’s website at https://www.sgblocks.com under the “Investors — Corporate Governance” tab.

Audit Committee

As of the Record Date, the members of our Audit Committee are Mr. Melton, who serves as chairperson, Mr. Blumenfeld and Mr. Moore. The Audit Committee Charter requires that the Audit Committee consist of at least three members of the Board, each of whom is required to be independent as defined by Nasdaq and SEC rules. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent, as defined by Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). The Board has also determined that Mr. Moore is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act.

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. Functions of the Audit Committee include, but are not limited to, reviewing the results and scope of the audit performed, and the financial recommendations provided by, our independent registered public accounting firm and coordinating the Board’s oversight of our internal financing and accounting processes.

All audit services to be provided to the Company by our independent public accounting firm, Whitley Penn, are pre-approved by the Audit Committee prior to the initiation of such services (except for items exempt from pre-approval requirements under applicable laws and rules). The Audit Committee approved all services provided by Whitley Penn to us during 2018.

Compensation Committee

As of the Record Date, the members of our Compensation Committee are Mr. Moore, who serves as chairperson, General Ayyar and Mr. Melton. The Compensation Committee Charter requires that the Compensation Committee consist of at least two members of the Board, each of whom is required to be independent as defined by Nasdaq rules. The Board has determined that each member of the Compensation Committee is independent, as defined in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2).

Functions of the Compensation Committee, include, but are not limited to: reviewing and approving, or recommending the Board approve, compensation arrangements for our executive officers, including salary and payments under the Company’s equity-based plans; reviewing compensation for non-employee directors and recommending changes to the Board; and administering our stock compensation plans. Our principal executive officer annually reviews the performance of each of the named executive officers and other officers and makes recommendations regarding the named executive officers and other officers and managers of the company, while the Compensation Committee reviews the performance of our principal executive officer. The conclusions and

recommendations resulting from our principal executive officer’s review are then presented to the Compensation Committee for its consideration and approval. The Compensation Committee can exercise its discretion in modifying any of our principal executive officer’s recommendations. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to a subcommittee of its members.

In performing its functions, the Compensation Committee may retain or obtain the advice of such compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors. In February 2018, the Compensation Committee retained Haigh & Company as its independent compensation consultant. With the assistance of Haigh & Company, the Compensation Committee developed and implemented an organizational framework covering salary, annual bonus and equity ownership, with the goal of attracting and retaining talented individuals who are critical to the Company’s long-term success and aligning pay with performance. However, the Compensation Committee has not, at this time, engaged Haigh & Company or any other compensation consultant for 2019. Based on the information received from the consultant, the Compensation Committee believes that the work Haigh & Company performed in 2018 did not raise a conflict of interest and that it was fully independent.

Nominating Committee

The Board does not have a standing nominating committee; instead, as permitted under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(e), a majority of the independent directors of the Board recommend director nominees for the consideration of the full Board. The Board believes the independent directors are able to properly select or approve director nominees who will become valuable members of the Board without requiring the formation of a standing nominating committee at this time. Each of our independent directors participates in this process, and Messrs. Ayyar, Blumenfeld, Melton, Moore and Potts recommended the nominees for directors contained in this proxy statement.

Conduct of Board Meetings

The Chairman sets the agenda for Board meetings with the understanding that the Board is responsible for providing suggestions for agenda items that are aligned with the advisory and monitoring functions of the Board. Agenda items that fall within the scope of responsibilities of a committee of the Board are reviewed with the chair of that committee. Any member of the Board may request that an item be included on the agenda. Board materials related to agenda items are provided to Board members sufficiently in advance of Board meetings to allow the directors to prepare for discussion of the items at the meeting. At the invitation of the Board, members of senior management recommended by the Chairman attend Board meetings or portions thereof for the purpose of participating in discussions.

Meeting Attendance

During 2018, our Board held five meetings of the full Board, four Audit Committee meetings and four Compensation Committee meetings. Each of the incumbent directors attended at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total number of meetings of the Board held during the period for which he was a director and the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which he served during the periods that he was a member of that committee, other than Mr. Blumenfeld.

As set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, our directors are expected to attend our annual stockholders’ meeting. Each of our current directors who served during the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2018 Annual Meeting”), other than Mr. Blumenfeld, attended such annual meeting.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

Our executive officers are responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while our Board has an advisory role in the Company’s risk management process, as a whole and at the committee level, and, in particular, the Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic and operational risk exposures, including cybersecurity risk. The Board and committees rely on the representations of management, the external audit of our financial and operating results, our systems of internal control and our historic practices when assessing the Company’s risks. The Audit Committee oversees management of financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, and additionally provides oversight of internal controls. The Compensation Committee, in conjunction with the Audit Committee, assesses and monitors whether any of the Company’s compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.

While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed about such risks by committee reports, as well as advice and counsel from expert advisors.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

Any transaction with a related person is subject to our written policy for transactions with related persons. Pursuant to such policy, our Audit Committee reviews in advance all related person transactions. The Audit Committee shall approve only those related person transactions that are determined to be in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, taking into account all available facts and circumstances as the Audit Committee determines in good faith to be necessary. These facts and circumstances will typically include, but not be limited to: whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business of the Company; the purpose and potential benefits of the transaction to the Company; the terms of the transaction and of comparable transactions that would be available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally; and the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director, an immediate family member of a director or an entity in which a director is a partner, stockholder or executive officer. In reviewing and approving such transactions, the Audit Committee shall obtain, or shall direct management to obtain on its behalf, all information that the Audit Committee believes to be relevant and important to a review of the transaction prior to its approval. The Audit Committee may adopt any further policies and procedures relating to the approval of related person transactions that it deems necessary or advisable from time to time.

Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy

We maintain an insider trading policy that applies to our officers and directors that prohibits trading our securities when in possession of material non-public information. It also prohibits the hedging of our securities, including short sales or purchases or sales of derivative securities based on our securities, and, unless an exemption is approved by our Audit Committee, the pledging of our securities. Since the adoption of our insider trading policy, the Audit Committee has not granted any such exemptions to the policy’s general prohibition on pledging.

CODE OF ETHICS

Our Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at https://www.sgblocks.com under the “Investors — Corporate Governance” tab, and is available free of charge, upon request to our Corporate Secretary at SG Blocks, Inc., 195 Montague Street, 14th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11201; telephone number: (646) 240-4235. Any substantive amendment of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and any waiver of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for executive officers or directors, will be made only after approval by the Board or a committee of the Board and will be disclosed on our website. In addition, any such waiver will be disclosed within four days on a Form 8-K filed with the SEC if then required by applicable rules and regulations.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Compensation Program

Our director compensation program is designed to attract and retain highly qualified directors and align their interests with those of our stockholders. We compensate directors who are not employed by the Company with a combination of cash and equity awards. Messrs. Galvin and Shetty did not receive any compensation for serving on our Board in 2018.

The Compensation Committee reviews the director compensation program and recommends proposed changes for approval by the Board. As part of this review, the Compensation Committee considers the significant amount of time expended, and the skill level required, by each director not employed by the Company in fulfilling his or her duties on the Board, each director’s role and involvement on the Board and its committees and the market compensation practices and levels of our peer companies.

During its annual review of the director compensation program in 2018, the Compensation Committee considered an analysis prepared by its independent consultant, Haigh & Company, which summarized director compensation trends for independent directors and pay levels at the same peer companies used to evaluate the compensation of our named executive officers. Following this review, and after considering the advice of Haigh & Company about market practices and pay levels, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the Board approved, the new compensation program for non-employee directors described below.

Cash Fees

Previously, the Company’s directors did not receive a cash fee for serving on the Board. The following table sets forth the new cash fee schedule for compensating non-employee directors, effective retroactive to January 1, 2018:

Annual Board Retainer	$	30,000
Lead Independent Director	$	10,000
Audit Committee Chair	$	10,000
Compensation Committee Chair	$	7,500
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair*	$	5,000

____________

* Such fee to be in effect in the event the Board forms such committee.

The above fees will be paid quarterly in advance, in four equal installments, to each person serving as a non-employee director at the time when such payment is made. Beginning with the 2019 calendar year, non-employee directors may choose to receive the $30,000 annual Board retainer as equity in restricted stock units (“RSUs”), in either a $15,000 or $30,000 increment, effective January 15 of the year in which the annual cash retainer is otherwise earned. Among other things, each RSU granted represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock; vests one year after grant, subject to the recipient’s continued service as a director of the Company through such date; and is payable six months after the termination of the director from the Board or death or disability. Directors receive no additional per-meeting fee for Board or committee meeting attendance.

Annual Equity Awards

In addition, pursuant to the SG Blocks, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan, non-employee directors will receive an annual grant of RSUs (the “Equity Awards”), with a grant date value of $30,000. The grant date of the Equity Awards will generally be the date of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders during the year of grant. The Equity Awards will be granted pursuant to the form of Restricted Share Unit Agreement (the “RSU Agreement”) adopted by the Board in connection with the new compensation arrangements. Among other things, the RSU Agreement provides that each Equity Award (i) represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock per RSU granted; (ii) vests on the earlier of (A) the first anniversary of the date of grant or (B) the date of the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders that occurs in the year immediately following the date of grant, subject to the recipient’s continued service as a director of the Company through such date; and (iii) is payable six months after the termination of the director from the Board or death or disability.

The Equity Awards for 2018 service were granted on July 26, 2018 to the non-employee directors serving as of the conclusion of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 1, 2018, with each such director receiving a grant of 5,591 RSUs, and will vest on the date of the Annual Meeting.

Former Compensation Program

Prior to July 26, 2018, in connection with their election or appointment to the Board, directors serving on a committee of the Board received a grant of options to purchase 16,667 shares of Common Stock, and directors who were not serving on any Board committees received a grant of options to purchase 13,334 shares of Common Stock. The option grants vested in four equal quarterly installments at the end of each fiscal quarter following the grant date, so long as the grantee remained a director of the Company.

Additional Compensation

In connection with special committees that the Board may form from time to time in connection with various transactions or undertakings, the Board may award additional compensation to the directors, in its discretion, for membership on such special committees. The Board may, from time to time, grant additional merit-based cash or equity compensation to non-employee directors for extraordinary service. All directors are reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with each Board and committee meeting attended.

Director Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information regarding all forms of compensation that were both earned by and paid to our non-employee directors during the year ended December 31, 2018. The compensation arrangements for Messrs. Galvin and Shetty are disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table set forth in the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement. Neither Mr. Galvin nor Mr. Shetty received compensation for their services as a director during the year ended December 31, 2018.

See “Note 13 — Share-based Compensation” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 for an explanation of the assumptions made in valuing these awards. Each of our current non-employee directors serving at the time of the 2018 Annual Meeting received a grant of 5,591 RSUs, effective July 26, 2018, which will vest on the date of the Annual Meeting.

The aggregate number of option and stock awards outstanding (including exercisable and unexercised stock options and unvested RSUs) as of December 31, 2018 for each non-employee director was as follows:

(5) As Mr. Potts was appointed to the Board on December 27, 2018, he did not receive compensation for services during 2018.

PROPOSAL 2 — RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed Whitley Penn, an independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. Whitley Penn has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since July 28, 2016. The Board proposes that the stockholders ratify this appointment. We expect that representatives of Whitley Penn will be present at the meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Although stockholder approval of this appointment is not required by law or binding on the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee believes that stockholders should be given the opportunity to express their views. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Whitley Penn as the Company’s independent auditors, the Audit Committee will consider this vote in determining whether to continue the engagement of Whitley Penn.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Whitley Penn as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees for professional service rendered by Whitley Penn for each of the last two fiscal years:

	2018		2017
Audit fees(1)	$	149,760	$	158,881
Audit-related fees(2)		—		—
Tax fees(3)		—		—
All other fees(4)		—		—
Totals	$	149,760	$	158,881

____________

(1) Audit fees include fees paid to Whitley Penn for professional services rendered for the audit for our annual financial statements and reviews of the financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and fees related to securities registration statements and related comfort letter procedures.

(2) Audit-related fees principally involve other assurance and related services.

(3) Tax services include tax compliance and tax planning consulting services. No tax services were performed for us by Whitley Penn in 2018 or 2017.

(4) No other services were performed for us by Whitley Penn in 2018 or 2017.

As discussed in “The Board and its Committees — Board and Committee Responsibilities — Audit Committee,” the Audit Committee has implemented pre-approval procedures consistent with the rules adopted by the SEC. The Audit Committee has determined that the provision of the services by Whitley Penn reported hereunder had no impact on its independence.

Vote Required

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions will count as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. Brokerage firms have authority to vote customers’ unvoted shares held by the firms in street name on this proposal. If a broker does not exercise this authority, such broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this vote. Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, if specific instructions are not otherwise given, in favor of this proposal.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF WHITLEY PENN LLP AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2019.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the consolidated financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal control. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 with management, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

The Audit Committee also has reviewed and discussed with Whitley Penn, our independent registered public accounting firm, which is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those consolidated financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, its judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of our accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the committee by the Statement on Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Whitley Penn required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Whitley Penn its independence.

Based on the considerations and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board (and the Board approved) that the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC.

This report is provided by the following independent directors, who comprise the Audit Committee:

PROPOSAL 3 — ADVISORY APPROVAL OF NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory, non-binding vote regarding the compensation of our named executive officers. The most recent advisory vote on named executive officer compensation was held at our 2018 Annual Meeting, and approximately 94% of our stockholders who cast a vote on the matter voted in favor of the compensation of our named executive officers. At the 2018 Annual Meeting, stockholders approved, by advisory vote, an annual frequency for future advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers. This advisory vote was accepted by our Board. Stockholders are expected to have the opportunity to vote on the frequency of future votes on named executive officer compensation at the 2024 Annual Meeting.

This proposal allows our stockholders to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any single compensation philosophy, policy or practice, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers as described in this proxy statement.

We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation of our named executive officers by voting “FOR” the following advisory, non-binding resolution at our Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of SG Blocks, Inc. approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosure.”

While the Board values the opinions of our stockholders, this vote is advisory and is not binding on the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee. We will consider the results of the vote, along with other relevant factors, when evaluating our executive compensation practices and considering future executive compensation arrangements.

Vote Required

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions will count as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote. Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, if specific instructions are not otherwise given, in favor of this proposal.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR”
THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF THE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS,
PURSUANT TO THE ABOVE NON-BINDING RESOLUTION.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

Following is a brief summary of each core element of the compensation program for our named executive officers.

Base Salary

We provide competitive base salaries that are intended to attract and retain key executive talent. Base salary levels depend on the executive’s position, responsibilities, experience, market factors, recruitment and retention factors, internal equity factors and our overall compensation philosophy. Effective January 1, 2017, we

entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers, pursuant to which each received an increase in salary, as described further below under “Employment Agreements.” Additionally, Mr. Shetty received an approximately 20% increase in his salary, effective July 25, 2017, in connection with an increase in his responsibilities beyond his then-current duties as Chief Financial Officer, including increased oversight of the day-to-day administration and operation of the Company’s business, the execution of the Company’s business plans and strategic planning for the Company’s growth. On July 24, 2018, the Compensation Committee approved an increase to the annual base salary of Messrs. Galvin and Shetty, the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer, retroactive to January 1, 2018. Mr. Galvin’s salary increased from $240,000 to $370,000, and Mr. Shetty’s from $220,000 to $300,000, effective January 1, 2018. Such increases were based on a competitive market assessment provided by Haigh & Company, the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant. The peer group used to conduct such assessment, as recommended by Haigh & Company and approved by the Compensation Committee, consisted of the following companies, chosen based on, among other things, industry, market cap, revenue, net income and headcount:

ATRM Holdings Inc.	Huttig Building Products	Nobility Homes Inc.
BRT Apartments Corporation	Innovative Industrial Properties	Skyline Corporation
Cadus Corporation	Innsuites Hospitality Trust	Sotherly Hotels Inc.
Comstock Holding Companies	Inspired Builders Inc.	Surna Inc.
Condor Hospitality Trust	Limbach Holdings Inc.	Tecogen
First Real Estate Investment Trust	New Home Company	UCP Inc.

Bonus Payments

On July 24, 2018, based on the assessment provided by Haigh & Company, the Compensation Committee also established the performance criteria for Messrs. Galvin and Shetty’s 2018 bonus awards and set their target bonus opportunity equal to 100% of base salary. The performance goals were based on the achievement of certain revenue, EBITDA and backlog results, which represented 45%, 35% and 20%, respectively, of the target award. Actual amounts payable for each component could range from 0% to 150% of the target award, based upon the extent to which performance under each component was below, met or exceeded the target, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

For this purpose, (i) revenue is defined as consolidated operating revenue as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, adjusted to remove the revenues of any business acquired or sold during the year, (ii) EBITDA is defined by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, with an addback for non-cash U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) charges, and (iii) backlog is defined as the amount of revenue the Company expects to realize from work to be performed on uncompleted contracts in progress and from contractual agreements in effect at December 31, 2018, on which work has not yet begun. Backlog reflected in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 excluded a contract of $27.5 million which was moved into pipeline pending further analysis on the optimal use of the subject property.

The following table sets forth the performance targets for the 2018 bonus awards and the related achievement levels:

Goal	Threshold (50% Payout)		Target (100% Payout)		Maximum (150% Payout)		Actual Result			Payout Percentage
Revenue (45%)	$	20,608,500	$	27,478,000	$	34,347,500	$	8,190,712		0	%
EBITDA (35%)	$	1,227,000	$	1,636,000	$	2,045,000	$	(4,247,638	)	0	%
Backlog (20%)	$	82,774,330	$	110,365,773	$	137,957,216	$	125,157,379		127	%
Weighted Average Payout Percentage										25	%

The bonus earned by each named executive officer for 2018, which is payable in RSUs that will vest on December 31, 2019 and will be payable to each employee on January 1, 2020, is set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column of the “Summary Compensation Table” of this Proxy Statement.

Special Retention Bonus Payments

On March 22, 2019, the Compensation Committee awarded special retention bonus payments, payable as RSUs, to Messrs. Galvin, Shetty and Armstrong in the amounts of $127,500, $127,500 and $30,000, respectively, in recognition of their contributions to the Company and the Company’s 2018 performance. Such RSUs will vest in three equal annual installments, commencing December 31, 2020, and will be delivered within 90 days of when the executive is no longer employed by the Company. These payments are included in the Bonus column of the “Summary Compensation Table” of this Proxy Statement.

Stock Options

In the past, we generally offered stock options to our key employees, including our named executive officers, as the long-term incentive component of our compensation program. Our stock options allow key employees to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, and may be intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” under the Internal Revenue Code.

Effective March 30, 2018, each of Messrs. Galvin, Shetty and Armstrong were granted options to purchase 82,154, 81,342 and 14,842 shares of Common Stock, respectively, with an exercise price of $4.61 per share. The options vest in equal quarterly installments over a two year period and will fully vest by the end of December 2019, in accordance with the underlying option award agreement. The options were granted in connection with the Company’s performance during 2017, based upon certain revenue and net income targets.

The percent beneficially owned is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each entity or individual (including any exercisable options, as described herein) and the denominator of which is the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock plus the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued upon (i) exercise by the subject entity or individual of such entity or individual’s own options and warrants and (ii) vesting of outstanding time-based restricted stock units.

PROPOSAL 4 — APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF
INCORPORATION TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

The Board has approved, and is asking stockholders to approve, the proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 300,000,000 shares to 25,000,000 shares (the “Proposed Amendment”). The number of shares of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $1.00, authorized for issuance under our Certificate of Incorporation would remain unchanged at 5,405,010 shares.

Approval of the Proposed Amendment requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 4,260,041 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. There are no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Purpose of the Amendment

The purpose of the Proposed Amendment is to reduce, to the extent possible, the Company’s future annual franchise taxes paid to the State of Delaware. As a Delaware corporation, the Company is required to pay an annual franchise tax to the State of Delaware; the amount of such tax payment is determined, in part, by the total number of shares of stock the Company is authorized to issue. Accordingly, the Company expects that the amount of such tax will be reduced if the Company decreases the number of its authorized shares of Common Stock. The Board believes that reducing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 300,000,000 to 25,000,000 (leading to a reduction in total authorized shares from 305,405,010 to 30,405,010) will result in annual Delaware franchise tax savings in the future (subject to changes in franchise tax rates by Delaware). In addition, the number of shares of Common Stock currently authorized, 300 million, is very high relative to the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, which was approximately 4.3 million as of the Record Date. The Board believes that the reduced number of authorized shares of Common Stock of 25,000,000 will maintain a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to permit the Company to issue such shares when and as the Board determines doing so is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, such as pursuant to the Company’s equity compensation plans or in connection with possible future financings, acquisitions, stock dividends and other corporate purposes.

Effects of the Amendment

If the Proposed Amendment is effected, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will be decreased from 300,000,000 to 25,000,000. The total number of authorized shares of the Company will be 30,405,010, consisting of 25,000,000 authorized shares of Common Stock and 5,405,010 authorized shares of preferred stock (none of which are currently outstanding). The Proposed Amendment will not change the par value of the shares of the Common Stock, affect the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or the rights or privileges of holders of shares of the Common Stock or have any effect on any outstanding securities, including outstanding equity awards, that are exercisable, convertible or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock.

Effecting the Proposed Amendment could potentially adversely affect the Company. The decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock that would be authorized, but not issued or outstanding, could result in less latitude for the Board to issue shares of Common Stock in the future, including when we determine doing so would be in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders, such as in connection with possible future financings, acquisitions, stock dividends and other corporate purposes. In the event the Board determines that it would be in the Company’s best interests to issue a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares then authorized but unissued and unreserved, the Company would be required to seek stockholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. If the stockholders do not approve such increase in a timely manner, or at all, the Company may be unable to take advantage of one or more opportunities that might otherwise be advantageous to the Company and its stockholders. However, the Board believes that these risks are outweighed by the anticipated benefits of reducing the amount of the Company’s Delaware franchise tax obligations.

A form of the certificate of amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect the Proposed Amendment is set forth in Appendix A (the “Certificate of Amendment”). If the stockholders approve the Proposed Amendment, the Company intends to file the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as soon as practicable following the Annual Meeting, and the Certificate of Amendment will be effective upon such filing. However, if at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State, the Board

determines that it would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to effect the Proposed Amendment, in accordance with Delaware law and notwithstanding authorization of the Proposed Amendment by the stockholders, the Board may abandon the Proposed Amendment without further action by the stockholders.

Vote Required

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the proposal. Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, if specific instructions are not otherwise given, in favor of this proposal.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR”
THE APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF THE COMPANY’S
COMMON STOCK FROM 300,000,000 TO 25,000,000.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and representations that no other reports were required, we believe that all Section 16 filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and 10% beneficial owners were timely complied with during the year ended December 31, 2018, except as follows: one open market purchase reported on a Form 4 filed by Yaniv Blumenfeld on August 21, 2018; and three open market purchases reported a Form 4 filed by Mr. Blumenfeld on September 5, 2018.

Annual Report

Copies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC, are available, without charge, to stockholders upon written request to our Corporate Secretary at SG Blocks, Inc., 195 Montague Street, 14th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11201.

Other Business

As of the date of this proxy statement, our Board and management do not know of any other business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, other than as described in this proxy statement. If, however, other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with their best judgment with respect to such matters.

Stockholder Proposals and Communications

Inclusion of Proposals in our Proxy Statement Pursuant to SEC Rules

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement for our 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. To be eligible for inclusion in our 2020 proxy statement, any such proposals must be delivered in writing to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices no later than December 28, 2019 and must meet the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. The submission of a stockholder proposal does not guarantee that it will be included in our proxy statement.

Stockholder Submission of Nominations

In addition, our bylaws have an advance notice procedure with regard to nominations for the election of directors to be held at an annual meeting of stockholders by any stockholder. In general, the Company will consider nominations for directors submitted by any stockholder only if such stockholder has given timely notice in proper written form of such nomination or nominations, setting forth certain specified information. To be timely, notice must be received by the Chairman of the Board no later than 60 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting. For the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, notice must be received no later than April 6, 2020. Notices of intent to nominate candidates for election as directors or other stockholder communications should be submitted to: SG Blocks, Inc., 195 Montague Street, 14th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11201, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Any proxy granted with respect to the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will confer on the proxy holders discretionary authority to vote with respect to a stockholder proposal or director nomination if notice of such proposal or nomination is not received by our Corporate Secretary within the timeframe provided above.

Other Stockholder Proposals

For other stockholder proposals to be properly presented at our 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, but not submitted for inclusion in our proxy statement, under SEC rules, if the Company does not receive notice of such proposal at least 45 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of mailing of the prior year’s proxy statement, the

Company’s proxy holders may use their discretionary voting authority when the proposal is raised at the meeting. The deadline for these proposals is March 12, 2020.

Stockholder Communications

Stockholders may communicate with our Board or any individual director by sending correspondence addressed to the intended recipient at the following address: SG Blocks, Inc., 195 Montague Street, 14th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11201. Your communications should indicate whether you are a stockholder of the Company. Depending on the subject matter, we will either forward the communication to the director or directors to whom it is addressed or attempt to handle the inquiry directly. If the communication is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal, does not reasonably relate to the Company or its business or is similarly inappropriate, we will not forward the communication.

Stockholders Sharing the Same Address

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as brokers) to implement a delivery procedure called “householding.” Under this procedure, multiple stockholders who reside at the same address may receive a single copy of our proxy materials, unless an affected stockholder has provided contrary instructions. This procedure reduces our printing costs and postage fees.

We will be householding our proxy materials. A single set of our proxy materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker or us that it or we will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent.

Shareholders of record who share an address and would like to receive a separate copy of our proxy materials for future annual meetings, or have questions regarding the householding process, may contact our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, either by written request or by telephone at 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219, telephone 1-800-937-5449. By contacting American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, shareholders of record sharing an address can also request delivery of multiple copies of our Proxy Materials in the future. In addition, upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate set of proxy materials to any beneficial owner at a shared address to which a single copy of any of those documents was delivered. To receive a separate set of proxy materials, you may write or call the Corporate Secretary of the Company at SG Blocks, Inc., 195 Montague Street, 14th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11201, Attention: Corporate Secretary, telephone 646-240-4235.
