EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
Insignia Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No.1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to deregister certain securities originally registered by the Company pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 30, 2015 (Registration Statement No. 333-205961, referred to herein as the “Prior Registration Statement) with respect to the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the Insignia Systems, Inc. 2013 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”). The Prior Registration Statement registered 200,000 shares of Common Stock.
 
The Company has since adopted a new equity incentive plan, the Insignia Systems, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) which replaces the 2013 Plan as of July 20, 2018, the date the Company’s stockholders approved the 2018 Plan. No future awards will be made under the 2013 Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment is being filed solely to carry forward the 151,921 shares registered under the Prior Registration Statement that will not be used for awards under the 2013 Plan to the 2018 Plan (the “Carryover Shares”). The Carryover Shares are hereby deregistered under the Prior Registration Statement.
 
Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment, the Company is filing a new Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “New Registration Statement”) to register the shares of Common Stock now available for offer or sale pursuant to the 2018 Plan, including but not limited to the Carryover Shares. The registration fee paid for the Carryover Shares under the Prior Registration Statement shall be carried over to the New Registration Statement.
 
The Company may, from time to time, file additional post-effective amendments to the Prior Registration Statement to deregister shares that subsequently become available for new awards under the 2018 Plan due to outstanding awards under the 2013 Plan expiring, being forfeited or terminated, or settled in cash, and transfer such shares to the New Registration Statement.
