THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE FIVE (5) NOMINEES
Corporate Governance
The Company is committed to good corporate governance, which we believe promotes the long-term interests of our stockholders and strengthens Board and management accountability.
Director Independence. We are not a “listed issuer” within the meaning of Item 407 of RegulationS-K. Applying the definition of independence set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., we have determined all of our directors are independent directors. This determination, which is made annually, helps assure the quality of the Board’s oversight of management and reduces the possibility of damaging conflicts of interest.
Board Meetings. Including two actions by unanimous written consent, the Board and/or its committees held a total of eleven (11) meetings during 2018, including ten (10) at which executive sessions were held with no members of management present. During 2018, all incumbent directors attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and committees of the Board on which they served.
Committees of the Board
Compensation Committee. At a meeting of the Board of Directors on July 8, 2014, the Board approved the creation of a Compensation Committee, and on October 13, 2014, adopted the Compensation Committee Charter (the “Charter”).Pursuant to the Charter, the Compensation Committee is to be comprised of no fewer than twonon-employee members of the Board, and the members shall be free from any relationships or conflicts of interest with respect to the Company that would impair the member’s ability to make independent judgments. The members of the Compensation Committee will be appointed by the Board and can be removed by the Board at any time, with or without cause.
The authority and duties of the Compensation Committee include but are not limited to: approving the corporate goals and objectives relating to compensation and bonus incentive structure of the CEO and other executive officers for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2005.

Nominating Committee
Board’s Role in Risk Oversight. The Board is responsible for overseeing management in the execution of its responsibilities and for assessing the Company’s approach to risk management. The Board exercises these responsibilities on an ongoing basis as part of its meetings. The Board’s consideration of the Company’s strategies and other matters presented to the Board, including financial matters, investments, acquisitions and divestitures, inherently include a systematic review of risk. The Board’s role in risk oversight is consistent with the Company’s leadership structure, with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management having responsibility for managing the Company’s risk exposure, and the Board and its committees providing oversight of those efforts.
The Company has implemented internal processes and controls to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board regarding risk management. These include suitability reviews of customers, partners, vendors and other persons/entities with which the Company does business, an internal and external audit process, internal approval and signature authority processes and legal department or outside counsel review of material contracts. In connection with these processes and controls, management regularly communicates with the Board, Board committees and individual directors regarding identified risks and the management of these risks, and individual directors often communicate directly with senior management on matters relating to risk management.
In part to further the distinction between management’s day to day role in operating the Company and the sizeBoard’s oversight function, the Company maintains separation between the Company’s executive officer functions and service on the Board.
Stockholder Communications with Directors. Stockholders may communicate with the Board or an individual director by sending a letter to the Board or to a director’s attention care of the Corporate Secretary of the Company at Galaxy Gaming, Inc., 6767 Spencer Street, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119.

Attendance at Stockholders’ Meetings. The Company encourages directors to attend the stockholders’ meeting. The Company believes at least four of the current directors will attend this year’s annual meeting.
Board Interlocks and Insider Participation. None of the Board at this time, domembers (i) has ever been an officer or employee of the Company or (ii) was a participant in a Related Person Transaction (as defined in “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions”) in 2018. None of the Company’s executive officers serves, or in 2018 served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving, or who in 2018 served, as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Our executive compensation program is designed to be simple, effective, and link pay to performance. It reflects the size, scope, and success of our business, as well as the responsibilities of our named executive officers. We believe our compensation program appropriately rewards performance and is aligned with the long-term interests of our shareholders.
We value the feedback provided by our shareholders. We have discussions with many of our shareholders on an ongoing basis regarding various corporate governance topics, including executive compensation, and we make every effort to take into account the views of shareholders regarding the design and effectiveness of our executive compensation program.
Shareholders are being asked to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules, is hereby approved.

PROPOSAL 3
ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OFSAY-ON-PAY
As described in our best interest in that it will provide us the ability to change our name to best fit our developing business plan and objectives. In the past, we have undertaken a business model that includes investing in real estate properties designed to provide immediate appreciation with little debt service. We have been unsuccessful, however, in achieving revenues under this business plan. Several of our acquired real estate properties have became impaired and /or were assets that underperformed. These properties were incapable of generating sufficient revenues. As a result, our business plan to invest in real estate properties has failed.
Title of Stock | Shares Pre-Reverse | Shares Post-Reverse |
Common Stock | 2,896,820 | 289,682 |
Series A Preferred Stock | 355,978 | 35,598 |
Series B Preferred Stock | 8,044 | 805 |
We believe thatsay-on-pay votes should be conducted every third year so that our shareholders may periodically express their views on our executive compensation program.
As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on the Company or the Board. However, the Board values the opinions expressed by shareholders in their votes on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of conducting asay-on-pay vote.
It is expected that the next vote on asay-on-pay frequency proposal will occur at the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders.
Shareholders may cast their advisory vote to conduct advisory votes on executive compensation every “1 Year,” “2 Years,” or “3 Years,” or “Abstain.”
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE ON PROPOSAL NO. 3 TO HOLDSAY-ON-PAY VOTES EVERY 3 YEARS (AS OPPOSED TO 1 YEAR OR 2 YEARS).
Vote Required
A plurality of the votes cast for Proposal No. 3 will determine the shareholders’ preferred frequency for holding an advisory vote on executive compensation. This means that the option for holding an advisory vote every 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years receiving the greatest number of votes will be considered the preferred frequency of the shareholders.
