To Our Stockholders:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders of Hyperfine, Inc. to be held at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, June 8, 2023. This will be my second year participating in the annual meeting of stockholders and the first since becoming President and Chief Executive Officer in October 2022. We have made significant and measurable progress since last year’s annual meeting of stockholders, including the following:

This year’s annual meeting will be conducted solely via live audio webcast on the internet. You will be able to attend the annual meeting, vote and submit your questions during the annual meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023. You will not be able to attend the annual meeting in person. We encourage you to vote by proxy soon so that your shares will be represented and voted at the meeting, whether or not you can attend.

Details regarding the meeting, the business to be conducted at the meeting, and information about Hyperfine, Inc. that you should consider when you vote your shares are described in the accompanying proxy statement.

At the annual meeting, six persons will be elected to our board of directors. In addition, we will ask stockholders to ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 and to approve a proposed amendment to our certificate of incorporation, as amended. Our board of directors recommends the approval of each of these proposals. Such other business will be transacted as may properly come before the annual meeting.

Under Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow companies to furnish proxy materials to stockholders over the Internet, we have elected to deliver our proxy materials to the majority of our stockholders over the Internet. This delivery process allows us to provide stockholders with the information they need, while at the same time conserving natural resources and lowering the cost of delivery. On April 24, 2023, we intend to

begin sending to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Internet Availability Notice”) containing instructions on how to access our proxy statement for our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and our 2022 annual report to stockholders. The Internet Availability Notice also provides instructions on how to vote online or by telephone, how to access the virtual annual meeting, and how to receive a paper copy of the proxy materials by mail.

We hope you will be able to attend the annual meeting. Whether you plan to attend the annual meeting or not, it is important that you cast your vote either virtually at the annual meeting or by proxy. You may vote over the Internet as well as by telephone or by mail. When you have finished reading the proxy statement, you are urged to vote in accordance with the instructions set forth in the proxy statement.

We are holding the annual meeting at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, June 8, 2023. Since hosting a virtual annual meeting enables greater stockholder attendance and participation from any location around the world, improves meeting efficiency and our ability to communicate effectively with our stockholders, and reduces the cost and environmental impact of our annual meeting, this year’s annual meeting will be conducted solely via live audio webcast on the Internet. You will be able to attend the annual meeting, vote and submit your questions during the annual meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023. You will not be able to attend the annual meeting in person.

On or about April 24, 2023, we intend to begin sending to our stockholders the Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access our proxy statement for our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and our 2022 annual report to stockholders.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This proxy statement, including the letter to shareholders included at the beginning of this proxy statement, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements concern, among other things, expectations about the Company’s financial and operating results, the Company’s commercial plans, the benefits of the Company’s products and services, and the Company’s future performance and its ability to implement its strategy. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are based on the current estimates and assumptions of the management of the Company as of the date of the proxy statement and are subject to uncertainty and changes. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as any updates to those risk factors filed from time to time in our periodic and current reports.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

Why is the Company Soliciting My Proxy?

Our board of directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders to be held virtually, on Thursday, June 8, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, and any adjournments or postponements of the meeting, which we refer to as the annual meeting. This proxy statement, along with the accompanying notice of 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, summarizes the purposes of the meeting and the information you need to know to vote at the annual meeting.

We have made available to you on the Internet or have sent you this proxy statement, the notice of 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, the proxy card and a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 because you owned shares of our Class A common stock or Class B common stock (together, the “common stock”) on the record date. We intend to commence distribution of the Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials, which we refer to throughout this proxy statement as the Internet Availability Notice, and, if applicable, proxy materials to stockholders on or about April 24, 2023.

Why Did I Receive a Notice in the Mail Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials Instead of a Full Set of Proxy Materials?

As permitted by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we may furnish our proxy materials to our stockholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet, rather than mailing printed copies of these materials to each stockholder. Most stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. We believe that this process should expedite stockholders’ receipt of proxy materials, lower the costs of the annual meeting and help to conserve natural resources. If you received the Internet Availability Notice by mail or electronically, you will not receive a printed or email copy of the proxy materials, unless you request one by following the instructions included in the Internet Availability Notice. Instead, the Internet Availability Notice instructs you as to how you may access and review all of the proxy materials and submit your proxy on the Internet. If you requested a paper copy of the proxy materials, you may authorize the voting of your shares by following the instructions on the proxy card, in addition to the other methods of voting described in this proxy statement.

Why Are You Holding a Virtual Annual Meeting?

Since hosting a virtual annual meeting enables greater stockholder attendance and participation from any location around the world, improves meeting efficiency and our ability to communicate effectively with our stockholders, and reduces the cost and environmental impact of our annual meeting, this year’s annual meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only. We have designed our virtual format to enhance, rather than constrain, stockholder access, participation and communication. For example, the virtual format allows stockholders to communicate with us in advance of, and during, the annual meeting so they can ask questions of our board of directors or management, as time permits.

How do I Access the Virtual Annual Meeting?

The live audio webcast of the annual meeting will begin promptly at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time. Online access to the audio webcast will open 15 minutes prior to the start of the annual meeting to allow time for you to log in and test your device’s audio system. The virtual annual meeting is running the most updated version of the applicable software and plugins. You should ensure you have a strong Internet connection wherever you intend to participate in the annual meeting. You should also allow plenty of time to log in and ensure that you can hear streaming audio prior to the start of the annual meeting.

To be admitted to the virtual annual meeting, you will need to log in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023 using the 16-digit control number found on the Internet Availability Notice or the proxy card previously mailed or made available to stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting.

3

Will I Be Able to Ask Questions and Have These Questions Answered During the Virtual Annual Meeting?

Stockholders may submit questions for the annual meeting after logging in. If you wish to submit a question, you may do so by logging into the virtual meeting platform at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023, typing your question into the ‘‘Ask a Question” field, and clicking ‘‘Submit.” Please submit any questions before the start time of the meeting. Appropriate questions related to the business of the annual meeting (the proposals being voted on) will be answered during the annual meeting, as time permits. Additional information regarding the ability of stockholders to ask questions during the annual meeting, related to rules of conduct and other materials for the annual meeting will be available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023.

What Happens if There Are Technical Difficulties During the Annual Meeting?

Beginning 15 minutes prior to, and during, the annual meeting, we will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual annual meeting, voting at the annual meeting or submitting questions at the annual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual annual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support line available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023.

Who May Vote?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 20, 2023 will be entitled to vote at the annual meeting. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 71,067,533 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote, including 56,012,245 shares of Class A common stock and 15,055,288 shares of Class B common stock. Our Class A common stock and Class B common stock are our only classes of voting stock.

If on April 20, 2023 your shares of our common stock were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, then you are a stockholder of record.

If on April 20, 2023 your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Internet Availability Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the annual meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the annual meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

You do not need to attend the annual meeting to vote your shares. Shares represented by valid proxies, received in time for the annual meeting and not revoked prior to the annual meeting, will be voted at the annual meeting. For instructions on how to change or revoke your proxy, see “May I Change or Revoke My Proxy?” below.

How Many Votes Do I Have?

Each share of our Class A common stock that you own entitles you to one (1) vote and each share of our Class B common stock that you own entitles you to twenty (20) votes.

How Do I Vote?

Whether you plan to attend the annual meeting or not, we urge you to vote by proxy. All shares represented by valid proxies that we receive through this solicitation, and that are not revoked, will be voted in accordance

4

with your instructions on the proxy card or as instructed via the Internet or telephone. You may specify whether your shares should be voted FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN for each nominee for director and whether your shares should be voted FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN with respect to each of the other proposals. If you properly submit a proxy without giving specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with our board of directors’ recommendations as noted below. Voting by proxy will not affect your right to attend the annual meeting.

If your shares are registered directly in your name through our stock transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, or you have stock certificates registered in your name, you may vote:

Telephone and Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 7, 2023.

If your shares are held in “street name” (held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record), you will receive instructions from the holder of record. You must follow the instructions of the holder of record in order for your shares to be voted. Telephone and Internet voting also will be offered to stockholders owning shares through certain banks and brokers.

How Does Our Board of Directors Recommend that I Vote on the Proposals?

Our board of directors recommends that you vote as follows:

If any other matter is presented at the annual meeting, your proxy provides that your shares will be voted by the proxy holder listed in the proxy in accordance with the proxy holder’s best judgment. At the time this proxy statement was first made available, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the annual meeting, other than those discussed in this proxy statement.

May I Change or Revoke My Proxy?

If you give us your proxy, you may change or revoke it at any time before the annual meeting. You may change or revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

5

Your most current vote, whether by telephone, Internet or proxy card is the one that will be counted.

What if I Receive More Than One Internet Availability Notice or Proxy Card?

You may receive more than one Internet Availability Notice or proxy card if you hold shares of our common stock in more than one account, which may be in registered form or held in street name. Please vote in the manner described above under “How Do I Vote?” for each account to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Will My Shares be Voted if I Do Not Vote?

If your shares are registered in your name or if you have stock certificates, they will not be counted if you do not vote as described above under “How Do I Vote?” If your shares are held in street name and you do not provide voting instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares as described above, the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares has the authority to vote your unvoted shares only on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2 of this proxy statement) without receiving instructions from you. Therefore, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee. This ensures your shares will be voted at the annual meeting and in the manner you desire. A “broker non-vote” will occur if your broker cannot vote your shares on a particular matter because it has not received instructions from you and does not have discretionary voting authority on that matter or because your broker chooses not to vote on a matter for which it does have discretionary voting authority.

What Vote is Required to Approve Each Proposal and How are Votes Counted?

6

The Vice Chairperson of our board of directors, Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D., beneficially owns 100% of our Class B common stock and controls a majority of the voting power of all of our outstanding shares of capital stock. As a result, Dr. Rothberg has the power to elect each of the nominees named in this proxy statement, ratify the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm, and approve the amendment to the Hyperfine, Inc. certificate of incorporation, as amended.

Where Can I Find the Voting Results of the Annual Meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the annual meeting, and we will publish preliminary, or final results if available, in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the annual meeting. If final results are unavailable at the time we file the Form 8-K, then we will file an amended Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results within four business days after the final voting results are known.

What Are the Costs of Soliciting these Proxies?

We will pay all of the costs of soliciting these proxies. Our directors and employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, fax or email. We will pay these employees and directors no additional compensation for these services. We will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward these proxy materials to their principals and to obtain authority to execute proxies. We will then reimburse them for their expenses.

What Constitutes a Quorum for the Annual Meeting?

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority in voting power of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Votes of stockholders of record who are present at the annual meeting in person or by proxy, abstentions, and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

Attending the Annual Meeting

This year, our annual meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only. To attend the virtual annual meeting, go to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HYPR2023 shortly before the meeting time, and follow the instructions for downloading the webcast. You need not attend the annual meeting in order to vote.

Householding of Annual Disclosure Documents

Some brokers or other nominee record holders may be sending you a single set of our proxy materials if multiple Hyperfine, Inc. stockholders live in your household. This practice, which has been approved by the SEC, is called “householding.” Once you receive notice from your broker or other nominee record holder that it will be “householding” our proxy materials, the practice will continue until you are otherwise notified or until you notify them that you no longer want to participate in the practice. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

7

We will promptly deliver a separate copy of our Internet Availability Notice or if applicable, our proxy materials to you if you write or call our Corporate Secretary at: Hyperfine, Inc., 351 New Whitfield Street, Guilford, Connecticut 06437 or (866) 796-6767. If you want to receive your own set of our proxy materials in the future or, if you share an address with another stockholder and together both of you would like to receive only a single set of proxy materials, you should contact your broker or other nominee record holder directly or you may contact us at the above address and phone number.

Electronic Delivery of Company Stockholder Communications

Most stockholders can elect to view or receive copies of future proxy materials over the Internet instead of receiving paper copies in the mail.

You can choose this option and save us the cost of producing and mailing these documents by:

On December 22, 2021, HealthCor Catalio Acquisition Corp., a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“HealthCor” and after the Business Combination described herein, the “Company”), after domesticating as a Delaware corporation on December 21, 2021, consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 7, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among HealthCor, Optimus Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of HealthCor (“Merger Sub I”), Optimus Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of HealthCor (“Merger Sub II”), Hyperfine, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Legacy Hyperfine”), and Liminal Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Liminal”). On December 22, 2021, immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, and such completion, the “Closing”, Merger Sub I merged with and into Legacy Hyperfine (the “Hyperfine Merger”), with Hyperfine surviving the Hyperfine Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of HealthCor, and Merger Sub II merged with and into Liminal (the “Liminal Merger”), with Liminal surviving the Liminal Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of HealthCor.

In connection with the Business Combination, HealthCor changed its name to “Hyperfine, Inc.,” Legacy Hyperfine changed its name to “Hyperfine Operations, Inc.” and Liminal changed its name to “Liminal Operations, Inc.” and subsequently to “Liminal Sciences, Inc.” Following the Closing, our Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “HYPR”. Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this proxy statement to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Hyperfine, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal, as the case may be.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 1, 2023 by:

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days and restricted stock units that vest within 60 days. Shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of options currently exercisable within 60 days and restricted stock units that vest within 60 days are deemed outstanding solely for purposes of calculating the percentage of total ownership and total voting power of the beneficial owner thereof.

The beneficial ownership of our common stock is based on 55,998,126 shares of our Class A common stock and 15,055,288 shares of our Class B common stock issued and outstanding as of April 1, 2023.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that each person named in the table below has sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them.

Director Diversity

Controlled Company Exemption

Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D. beneficially owns a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (1) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (2) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities and (3) that director nominees must either be selected, or recommended for the board’s selection, either by independent directors constituting a majority of the board’s independent directors in a vote in which only independent directors participate, or a nominating and corporate governance committee comprised solely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. As a result, you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements. If we cease to be a “controlled company” and our shares continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), we will be required to comply with these standards and, depending on the board’s independence determination with respect to our then-current directors, we may be required to add additional directors to our board in order to achieve such compliance within the applicable transition periods.

Composition of the Board of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors is declassified and the directors will be elected annually.

14

Independence of the Board of Directors

Nasdaq rules generally require that independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. As a controlled company, we are largely exempt from such requirements. Based upon information requested from and provided by each proposed director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, we have determined that John Dahldorf, Ruth Fattori and Daniel J. Wolterman, representing three of our directors, are “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq.

Board Committees

The standing committees of our board of directors consist of an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Our board of directors may from time to time establish other committees.

Our chief executive officer and other executive officers will regularly report to the non-executive directors and the audit, the compensation and the nominating and corporate governance committees to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls. We believe that the leadership structure of our board of directors will provide appropriate risk oversight of our activities given the controlling interests held by Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D.

Meeting Attendance

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, there were five meetings of our board of directors and the various committees of our board of directors met a total of 26 times. No director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of the board of directors and of committees of the board of directors on which such director served during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The board of directors has adopted a policy under which each member of the board of directors makes every effort to but is not required to attend each annual meeting of our stockholders.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee met seven times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Our audit committee consists of John Dahldorf, who serves as the chairperson, Ruth Fattori and Daniel J. Wolterman. Each member of the audit committee qualifies as an independent director under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Dahldorf qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K and possesses financial sophistication, as defined under the rules of Nasdaq.

The purpose of the audit committee is to prepare the audit committee report required by the SEC to be included in our proxy statement and to assist the board of directors in overseeing and monitoring (1) the quality and integrity of the financial statements, (2) compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of our independent registered public accounting firm. Please see the report of the audit committee set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The board of directors has adopted a written charter for the audit committee which is available on our website at https://hyperfine.io under Investors — Corporate Governance — Documents & Charters.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee met 14 times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Our compensation committee consists of Ruth Fattori, who serves as the chairperson, and John Dahldorf. Our board

15

of directors has determined that all members of the compensation committee qualify as independent under the definition promulgated by Nasdaq.

The purpose of the compensation committee is to assist the board of directors in discharging its responsibilities relating to (1) setting our compensation program, including recommending to the board of directors the approval of the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and our directors, and approving the compensation of our other executive officers, (2) administering and monitoring our incentive and equity-based compensation plans and (3) preparing the compensation committee report, if required, in our proxy statement under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The compensation committee evaluates each executive officer’s performance for the prior year. In connection with the annual review cycle for 2022, Ms. Sainz, our President and Chief Executive Officer, meets with our executive officers to discuss our accomplishments and the individual’s performance and contributions during the prior year. Ms. Sainz also evaluates company performance against corporate goals. This process leads to a recommendation by Ms. Sainz to the compensation committee with respect to each executive officer, other than herself, as to:

These recommendations are reviewed and taken into account by the compensation committee, together with the compensation committee’s evaluation of Ms. Sainz’s performance and contributions. The compensation committee then approves the compensation of our executive officers other than our President and Chief Executive Officer, and makes a recommendation regarding the compensation of our President and Chief Executive Officer to the full board of directors, which then approves the compensation of our President and Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Sainz, our President and Chief Executive Officer and a director, will not be present when the board of directors discusses and makes decisions about her compensation. The compensation committee also grants equity awards to our executive officers.

The compensation committee may engage compensation consultants to evaluate executive compensation, discuss general compensation trends, provide competitive market practice data, including a peer group, and assist in the design and implementation of certain elements of the executive compensation program.

In anticipation of the Business Combination, our compensation committee engaged Aon’s Human Capital Solutions practice, a division of Aon plc, an independent executive compensation consulting firm, or Aon, as its independent compensation consultant. Aon reports directly to the compensation committee, and the compensation committee has the sole authority to hire, fire and direct the work of Aon. As part of its engagement, Aon was requested by the compensation committee to create our executive compensation peer group and perform an analysis of executive compensation as relates to base salary, target annual cash incentives and long-term equity incentives. Aon provided recommendations for public company executive compensation, including base salary increases of certain executive officers, target bonus opportunities for the annual performance-based cash incentive plan, and issuance of equity awards to certain executive officers based on its review of proxy statement data, proprietary survey data, current industry trends, existing employment arrangements, competitive equity dilution and overhang and other factors specifically related to us. Aon also provided recommendations with respect to employee equity grants. The board of directors and compensation committee considered these recommendations, along with the Company’s and each executive’s performance, in determining these compensation changes, which were made to ensure better alignment with our compensation philosophy and in consideration of internal pay equity. In addition, Aon developed recommendations for director compensation which we used to create our public company director compensation policy.

16

Although our board of directors and compensation committee consider the advice and recommendations of Aon or any other independent compensation consultant that our compensation committee may engage as to our executive or director compensation, our board of directors and compensation committee ultimately make their own decisions about these matters.

Aon did not provide any services to us or our compensation committee other than as described above in connection with our executive and director compensation for 2022, although we may engage Aon or another consultant to provide services for us in connection with executive and director compensation in the future. The compensation committee has assessed the independence of Aon pursuant to SEC rules and concluded that Aon’s work for the compensation committee does not raise any conflict of interest.

The board of directors has adopted a written charter for the compensation committee, which is available on our website at https://hyperfine.io under Investors — Corporate Governance — Documents & Charters.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our nominating and corporate governance committee met five times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Daniel J. Wolterman, who serves as the chairperson, and Ruth Fattori. All members of the nominating and corporate governance committee qualify as independent under the definition promulgated by Nasdaq.

The purpose of the nominating and corporate governance committee is to assist the board of directors in discharging its responsibilities relating to (1) identifying individuals qualified to become new board of directors members, consistent with criteria approved by the board of directors, (2) reviewing the qualifications of incumbent directors to determine whether to recommend them for reelection and selecting, or recommending that the board of directors select, the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders, (3) identifying members of the board of directors qualified to fill vacancies on any committee of the board of directors and recommending that the board of directors appoint the identified member or members to the applicable committee, (4) reviewing and recommending to the board of directors corporate governance principles applicable to us, (5) overseeing the evaluation of the board of directors, (6) overseeing the process of succession planning for the Chief Executive Officer and, as warranted, other senior officers of Hyperfine and (7) handling such other matters that are specifically delegated to the committee by the board of directors from time to time.

Generally, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers candidates recommended by stockholders as well as from other sources such as other directors or officers, third party search firms or other appropriate sources. Once identified, the nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate a candidate’s qualifications in accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Policy Regarding Qualifications of Directors” appended to our nominating and corporate governance committee charter. Threshold criteria include: experience, skills, expertise, diversity, personal and professional integrity, character, business judgment, time availability in light of other commitments, dedication and conflicts of interest. Our nominating and corporate governance committee has not adopted a formal diversity policy in connection with the consideration of director nominations or the selection of nominees. However, the nominating and corporate governance committee will consider issues of diversity among its members in identifying and considering nominees for director, and strive where appropriate to achieve a diverse balance of backgrounds, perspectives, experience, age, gender, ethnicity and country of citizenship on our board of directors and its committees.

If a stockholder wishes to propose a candidate for consideration as a nominee for election to our board of directors, it must follow the procedures described in our bylaws, in the “Policy on Stockholder Recommendation of Candidates for Election as Directors” appended to our nominating and corporate governance committee charter, and in “Stockholder Proposals and Nominations for Director” at the end of this proxy statement. Any such recommendation should be made in writing to the nominating and corporate governance committee, care of

17

our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office and should be accompanied by the following information concerning each recommending stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made:

The recommendation must also be accompanied by the following information concerning the proposed nominee:

The board of directors has adopted a written charter for the nominating and corporate governance committee which is available on our website at https://hyperfine.io under Investors — Corporate Governance — Documents & Charters.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that serve as a flexible framework within which our board of directors and our committees operate. These guidelines cover a number of areas including board membership criteria and director qualifications, director responsibilities, board agenda, meetings of non-management directors, committee responsibilities and assignments, board member access to management and independent advisors, director communications with third parties, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, evaluation of our chief executive officer and management succession planning. A copy of our corporate governance guidelines is posted on our website at https://hyperfine.io under Investors — Corporate Governance — Documents & Charters.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Our compensation committee has two members, Ruth Fattori, who serves as the chairperson, and John Dahldorf. In 2022, none of our executive officers served on the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that had one or more executive officers serving as a member of our board of directors or compensation committee. There are no family relationships between or among the members of our board of directors or executive officers.

Board Leadership Structure and Role on Risk Oversight

The positions of our chairperson of the board and chief executive officer are separate. Separating these positions allows our chief executive officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the chairperson

18

of the board to lead the board of directors in its fundamental roles of setting a company’s overall strategy and providing advice to and independent oversight of management. Our board of directors recognizes the time, effort and energy that the chief executive officer must devote to her position in the current business environment, as well as the commitment required to serve as our chairperson, particularly as the board of directors’ oversight responsibilities continue to grow. Our board of directors also believes that this structure ensures a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of the company and active participation of the independent directors in setting agendas and establishing priorities and procedures for the work of our board of directors. Our board of directors believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for the Company at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance. Our board of directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function has not affected its leadership structure.

The board of directors has extensive involvement in the oversight of risk management related to us and our business and will accomplish this oversight through the regular reporting to the board of directors by the audit committee. The audit committee will represent the board of directors by periodically reviewing our accounting, reporting and financial practices, including the integrity of our financial statements, the surveillance of administrative and financial controls and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Through its regular meetings with management, including the finance, legal, internal audit and information technology functions, the audit committee will review and discuss all significant areas of our business and summarize for the board of directors all areas of risk and the appropriate mitigating factors. In addition, the board of directors will receive periodic detailed operating performance reviews from management.

Policy on Anti-Hedging and Pledging

We maintain an Insider Trading Policy that, among other things, generally prohibits all officers, including our named executive officers, directors and employees from engaging in “hedging” transactions with respect to our shares. This includes short sales, hedging of share ownership positions, and transactions involving derivative securities relating to our shares. The Insider Trading Policy also generally prohibits borrowing or other arrangements involving the non-recourse pledge of our shares.

Stockholder Communications to the Board of Directors

Generally, stockholders and other constituents who have questions or concerns should contact our Investor Relations group at (866) 796-6767 or investors@hyperfine.io. However, any stockholders who wish to address questions regarding our business directly with the board of directors, or any individual director, should direct his or her questions in writing to the Chairperson of the board of directors at Hyperfine, Inc., 351 New Whitfield Street, Guilford, Connecticut 06437. Communications will be distributed to the board of directors, or to any individual director or directors as appropriate, depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communications. Items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the board of directors may be excluded, such as: junk mail and mass mailings; resumes and other forms of job inquiries; surveys; and solicitations or advertisements. In addition, any material that is unduly hostile, threatening, or illegal in nature may be excluded, provided that any communication that is filtered out will be made available to any outside director upon request.

Pursuant to the Offer Letter, if Mr. Scott’s employment was terminated without cause or if Mr. Scott resigned with good reason, Mr. Scott would receive severance equal to 12 months base salary and target bonus and payment of an amount equal to COBRA premiums for 12 months. He would receive 12 months accelerated vesting of outstanding time-based vesting equity awards, and any vested options, including options with performance-based vesting that have previously vested, would be eligible to be exercised until the earlier of the third anniversary of Mr. Scott’s termination of employment or their originally scheduled expiration date.

If during the period beginning three months prior to and ending eighteen months following the date of a change in control, we terminated Mr. Scott’s employment without cause or if he resigned with good reason, Mr. Scott would receive severance equal to two times the sum of his base salary and target bonus, paid as a lump sum, plus payment of an amount equal to COBRA premiums for 24 months.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

HealthCor Related Person Transactions

On January 29, 2021, HealthCor consummated the sale of 614,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Private Placement Shares”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per share in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of HealthCor’s initial public offering (the “HealthCor IPO”). In December 2020 and January 2021, the Sponsor transferred 35,000 Class B ordinary shares to each of Dr. Christopher Wolfgang, Michael Weinstein and Taylor Harris, each a director of HealthCor, resulting in HealthCor’s independent directors holding an aggregate of 105,000 of the 4,312,500 Class B ordinary shares originally purchased by the Sponsor (the “Founder Shares”). On January 26, 2021, HealthCor effected a share capitalization pursuant to which it issued 862,500 additional Class B ordinary shares, resulting in its Sponsor and these other initial shareholders holding 5,175,000 Class B ordinary shares. Up to 675,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ exercised their over-allotment option in connection with the HealthCor IPO. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, these Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

In addition, the Sponsor purchased, pursuant to a written agreement, an aggregate of 614,000 Private Placement Shares for a purchase price of $10.00 per share in a private placement that occurred with the closing of the HealthCor IPO.

Prior to the completion of the Business Combination, HealthCor maintained its executive offices at 55 Hudson Yards, 28th Floor, New York, NY 10001. The cost for HealthCor’s use of this space was included in the up to $10,000 per month fee HealthCor paid to the Sponsor for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of the Business Combination, HealthCor ceased paying these monthly fees.

On November 23, 2020, HealthCor issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which HealthCor could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2021 and (ii) the completion of the HealthCor IPO. The balance of the Promissory Note was repaid in February 2021.

In connection with the HealthCor IPO, HealthCor entered into a registration and shareholder rights agreement (the “Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Sponsor was entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the Private Placement Shares, the shares issuable upon conversion of working capital loans (if any) and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing and upon conversion of the Founder Shares, and, upon consummation of an initial business combination, to nominate three individuals for appointment to HealthCor’s board of directors, as long as the Sponsor holds any securities covered by the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement. The Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement was replaced by the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) entered into by and among the Company, the Sponsor, and certain affiliates of the Sponsor, certain Legacy Hyperfine equityholders, certain Liminal equityholders, and certain other parties at the Closing as described below.

The ARTSA has an initial term of five years from the date of the ARTSA and provides that the ARTSA will be automatically extended for additional, consecutive one-year renewal terms. Each participating company, including Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal, has the right to terminate the ARTSA at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice and 4Catalyzer has the right to terminate the ARTSA at any time upon 90 days’ prior notice. We paid an aggregate of $2,281,792 and $808,251 during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively, for services under the ARTSA. We received an aggregate of $11,685 and $0 during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively, for services under the ARTSA. On July 7, 2021, Legacy Hyperfine, Liminal and 4Catalyzer entered into First Addendums to the ARTSA, pursuant to which Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal each terminated its participation under the ARTSA immediately prior to the Closing. Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal each entered into a Master Services Agreement (the “Master Services Agreements”) with 4Catalyzer effective as of July 7, 2021 pursuant to which Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal may engage 4Catalyzer to provide services such as general administration, facilities, information technology, financing, legal, human resources and other services, through future statements of work and under terms and conditions to be determined by the parties with respect to any services to be provided.

Technology and Services Exchange Agreement

Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal have entered into Technology and Services Exchange Agreements (each, a “TSEA” and collectively, the “TSEA”) with other participant companies controlled by the Rothbergs.

Under the TSEA, Legacy Hyperfine, Liminal and the other participant companies may, in their discretion, permit the use of non-core technologies, which include any technologies, information or equipment owned or otherwise controlled by the participant company that are not specifically related to the core business area of the participant, such as software, hardware, electronics, fabrication and supplier information, vendor lists and contractor lists, by other participant companies. The TSEA provides that ownership of each non-core technology shared by Legacy Hyperfine, Liminal or another participant company will remain with the company that originally shared the non-core technology. In addition, any participant company (including Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal) may, in its discretion, permit its personnel to be engaged by another participant company to perform professional, technical or consulting services for such participant. Unless otherwise agreed to by Legacy Hyperfine, Liminal and the other participant company, all rights, title and interest in and to any inventions, works-of-authorship, idea, data or know-how invented, made, created or developed by the personnel (employees, contractors or consultants) in the course of conducting services for a participant company (“Created IP”) will be owned by the participant company for which the work was performed, and the recipient participant company grants to the party that had its personnel provide the services that resulted in the creation of the Created IP a royalty-free, perpetual, limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable (and with respect to software, sub-licensable in object code only) license to utilize the Created IP only in the core business field of the originating participant company, including a license to create and use derivative works based on the Created IP in the originating participant’s core business field, subject to any agreed upon restrictions. Fees or other compensation payable for services or use of technology under the TSEA will be determined at fair market value and set forth in one or more written work orders to be entered into between the applicable participant companies. As of April 1, 2023, the amount of financial obligations Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal have under the TSEA is approximately $63,600.

In April 2021, Liminal entered into investors’ rights, voting and right of first refusal and co-sale agreements containing registration rights, information rights, voting rights and rights of first refusal, among other things, with holders of Liminal’s preferred stock.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

At the Closing of the Business Combination, the Company, the Sponsor, certain affiliates of the Sponsor, certain stockholders of Legacy Hyperfine, and certain stockholders of Liminal entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the parties to the Registration Rights Agreement agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to effect any sale or distribution of any equity securities of the Company held by any of them during the lock-up period described therein and were granted certain registration rights with respect to their respective shares of the Company’s common stock, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein.

Advisory Agreement with Jonathan M. Rothberg, Ph.D.

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Legacy Hyperfine and Dr. Rothberg, the Founder of Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal and a member of our board of directors, entered into the Advisory Agreement, effective as of the Closing, pursuant to which Dr. Rothberg agreed to advise our Chief Executive Officer and provide guidance to our board of directors. As compensation for Dr. Rothberg’s services under the Advisory Agreement, we paid Dr. Rothberg a consulting fee of $16,667 per month during the term of the Advisory Agreement. On June 13, 2022, we and Dr. Rothberg terminated the Advisory Agreement.

Indemnification Agreements with Officers and Directors and Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors. The indemnification agreements and our Bylaws require that we indemnify our directors to the fullest extent not prohibited by Delaware law. Subject to certain limitations, the indemnification agreements and the Bylaws also require us to advance expenses incurred by our directors and officers. We also maintain a general liability insurance policy, which covers certain liabilities of its directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

We have adopted a written related person transaction policy that sets forth the following policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions.

A “Related Person Transaction” is a transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds the lesser of (i) $120,000, and (ii) one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to the Company or any of its subsidiaries as an employee, consultant or director will not be considered related person transactions under this policy. A “Related Person” is:

39

An “Immediate Family Member” of a person is any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law of such person, or any other person sharing the household of such person, other than a tenant or employee.

The Company has implemented policies and procedures designed to minimize potential conflicts of interest arising from any dealings it may have with its affiliates and to provide appropriate procedures for the disclosure of any real or potential conflicts of interest that may exist from time to time. Specifically, pursuant to its charter, the audit committee has the responsibility to review related party transactions.

Under the related person transaction policy, any related person transaction will be reviewed and approved by the audit committee prior to effectiveness or consummation of the transaction, whenever practicable, and if advance approval is not practicable under the circumstances, ratified by the audit committee at its next meeting. Alternatively, a related person transaction arising in the time period between meetings of the audit committee may be presented to the chairperson of the audit committee, who shall review and may approve the related person transaction, subject to ratification by the audit committee at the next meeting of the audit committee.

To identify related person transactions in advance, we expect to rely on information supplied by our executive officers, directors and certain significant stockholders. In considering related person transactions, our audit committee is expected to take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances, which may include, but are not limited to:

The audit committee will approve only those transactions that it determines are fair to the Company and in the Company’s best interests.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The audit committee has appointed Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Our board of directors proposes that the stockholders ratify this appointment. We expect that representatives of Grant Thornton LLP will be present at the annual meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

In connection with the closing of the Business Combination on December 22, 2021, our audit committee appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our combined and consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Marcum LLP served as independent registered public accounting firm of HealthCor prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, Marcum LLP was replaced as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm upon the closing of the Business Combination. Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, Deloitte & Touche LLP served as auditor for Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal and audited the combined financial statements of Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020.

On March 24, 2023, our audit committee appointed Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. On March 24, 2023, the audit committee also dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. The audit report of Deloitte & Touche LLP on our combined and consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the two years ended December 31, 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of an opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. We do not anticipate representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP will be present at the annual meeting.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the subsequent interim period through March 24, 2023, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte & Touche LLP, would have caused Deloitte & Touche LLP to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its audit reports on our combined and consolidated financial statements for such years.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and in the subsequent interim period through March 24, 2023, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except for the following two previously-disclosed material weaknesses:

42

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the subsequent interim period through March 24, 2023, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted with Grant Thornton LLP with respect to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our combined and consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to us that Grant Thornton LLP concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

In deciding to appoint Grant Thornton LLP, the audit committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with Grant Thornton LLP and concluded that Grant Thornton LLP has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

The following table presents fees for professional audit services rendered by Deloitte & Touche LLP for the audit of our annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and fees billed for other services rendered by Deloitte & Touche LLP during those periods ($ amounts in thousands).

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Public Accountant

Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the audit committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm. In recognition of this responsibility, the audit committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm.

Prior to engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm for the next year’s audit, management will submit an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the audit committee for approval.

1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally only an independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by an independent registered public accounting firm, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.

3. Tax services include all services performed by an independent registered public accounting firm’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and include fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.

4. Other Fees are those associated with services not captured in the other categories. We generally do not request such services from our independent registered public accounting firm.

Prior to engagement, the audit committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the audit committee requires our independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the audit committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm.

The audit committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.

In the event the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, the audit committee will reconsider its appointment.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively for this proposal is required to ratify the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF GRANT THORNTON LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF SUCH RATIFICATION UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

AMENDMENT OF OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION, AS AMENDED, TO LIMIT THE LIABILITY OF OUR OFFICERS AS PERMITTED BY RECENT AMENDMENTS TO DELAWARE LAW

Our board of directors has determined that it is advisable to amend our certificate of incorporation, as amended, to provide for the elimination or limitation of monetary liability of our officers for breach of the duty of care, and has voted to recommend that the stockholders adopt an amendment to our certificate of incorporation, as amended, to limit the liability of our officers as permitted by recent amendments to Delaware law. The full text of the proposed amendment to the certificate of incorporation, as amended, is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

Background

The State of Delaware, which is our state of incorporation, recently enacted legislation that enables Delaware companies to limit the liability of certain officers in limited circumstances in accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The new Delaware legislation only permits, and our proposed amendment would only permit, exculpation for direct claims brought by stockholders for breach of an officer’s fiduciary duty of care, including class actions, but would not eliminate officers’ monetary liability for breach of fiduciary duty claims brought by the corporation itself or for derivative claims brought by stockholders in the name of the corporation. Furthermore, the limitation on liability would not apply to breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction in which the officer derived an improper personal benefit.

Reasons for the Proposed Amendment

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, currently provides for the exculpation of directors, but does not include a provision that allows for the exculpation of officers. The board of directors believes it is important to provide protection from certain liabilities and expenses that may discourage prospective or current directors from accepting or continuing membership on corporate boards and prospective or current officers from serving corporations. In the absence of such protection, qualified directors and officers might be deterred from serving as directors or officers due to exposure to personal liability and the risk that substantial expense will be incurred in defending lawsuits, regardless of merit.

For the reasons stated above, it is in the interest of us and our stockholders that the amendment be approved. The proposed amendment would better position us to attract top officer candidates and retain our current officers and enable the officers to exercise their business judgment in furtherance of the interests of the stockholders without the potential for distraction posed by the risk of personal liability. Additionally, it will align the protections for the officers with those protections afforded to the directors.

The proposed amendment is not being proposed in response to any specific resignation, threat of resignation or refusal to serve by any director or officer.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock is required to approve the amendment to our certificate of incorporation, as amended, to effect the proposed amendment to limit the liability of our officers as permitted by recent amendments to Delaware law.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION, AS AMENDED, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE AMENDMENT UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

45

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The text of the code of business conduct and ethics is posted on our website at www.hyperfine.io and will be made available to stockholders without charge, upon request, in writing to the Corporate Secretary at Hyperfine, Inc., 351 New Whitfield Street, Guilford, Connecticut 06437. Disclosure regarding any amendments to, or waivers from, provisions of the code of business conduct and ethics that apply to our directors, principal executive officer and principal financial officer will be included in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days following the date of the amendment or waiver, unless website posting or the issuance of a press release of such amendments or waivers is then permitted by the rules of Nasdaq.

OTHER MATTERS

Our board of directors knows of no other business which will be presented to the annual meeting. If any other business is properly brought before the annual meeting, proxies will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons named therein.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS AND NOMINATIONS FOR DIRECTOR

To be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement relating to our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, we must receive stockholder proposals (other than for director nominations) no later than December 26, 2023. To be considered for presentation at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, although not included in the proxy statement, proposals (including director nominations that are not requested to be included in our proxy statement) must be received not earlier than February 9, 2024 and no later than March 10, 2024. In addition to satisfying the foregoing advance notice requirements, to comply with the universal proxy rules under the Exchange Act, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must follow the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-19 as promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Proposals that are not received in a timely manner or in accordance with applicable law will not be voted on at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. If a proposal is received on time, the proxies that management solicits for the meeting may still exercise discretionary voting authority on the proposal under circumstances consistent with the proxy rules of the SEC. All stockholder proposals should be marked for the attention of Corporate Secretary, Hyperfine, Inc., 351 New Whitfield Street, Guilford, Connecticut 06437.
