EXPLANATORY NOTE –

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Commission File No. 333-129113 ), originally filed by RELM WIRELESS CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation (“RELM”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 19, 2005 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), registering the resale of up to 2,584,053 shares of RELM’s common stock, from time to time, by the selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement and by such selling shareholder’s permitted transferees identified as selling shareholders in a prospectus supplement filed on November 2, 2005.

On March 11, 2019, RELM, which had changed its name to BK Technologies, Inc., announced that its board of directors had approved the implementation of a holding company reorganization (the “Reorganization”). On March 28, 2019, RELM implemented the Reorganization, which resulted in BK Technologies Corporation (“BKTI”) becoming the direct parent company of, and the successor issuer to, RELM (then named BK Technologies, Inc.). At the effective time of the Reorganization, each share of RELM common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior such time automatically converted into an equivalent corresponding share of BKTI common stock. BKTI’s common stock continued to be listed on the NYSE American under the ticker symbol “BKTI.”

BKTI now seeks to deregister all shares of Common Stock that remain unsold under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof because its obligation to keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to the terms of its agreement with the selling shareholders has terminated. Pursuant to the undertaking of BKTI as required by Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, BKTI is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister any remaining unsold shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement which would have otherwise remained available for sale under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
