Item 8.01. Other Events.
On April 27, 2021, NeuroMetrix, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that due to insufficient shareholder votes to represent a quorum of the Company’s outstanding shares, it intends to adjourn, without conducting any business, its 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2021 Annual Meeting”) scheduled to occur at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on April 27, 2021, and reconvene at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 11, 2021, to vote on the proposals described in the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 16, 2021. The 2021 Annual Meeting will still be held in a virtual format only. The Company does not intend to change the record date for the 2021 Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on March 1, 2021 are entitled to vote at the reconvened 2021 Annual Meeting.

During the period of the adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Company’s proxy statement. Proxies previously submitted in respect of the 2021 Annual Meeting will be voted at the adjourned meeting unless properly revoked.

No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting. The Company’s proxy statement and any other materials filed by the Company with the SEC remain unchanged and can be obtained free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
