As a result thereof, at any time, Mr. Vizirgianakis may decide, depending upon the price and availability of shares of APYX common stock or other securities of APYX, subsequent developments affecting APYX, its business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects, APYX’s strategic direction, actions taken or not taken by APYX’s management and board of directors, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations, other investment and business opportunities available to him, and other factors considered relevant at any time, to increase or decrease the size of his investment in APYX or otherwise dispose of some or all of his holdings of APYX common stock.

In connection with such review and evaluation, and as indicated above, Mr. Vizirgianakis intends to pursue and hold discussions with APYX’s management, members of its board of directors, other APYX stockholders or securityholders, and other interested or relevant parties.
