PLACEMENT AGENCY AGREEMENT


 


Dawson James Securities, Inc.

1 North Federal Highway

Boca Raton, Florida 33432


 


November 16, 2018


 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This letter (this “Agreement”)
constitutes the agreement between Sonoma Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Dawson
James Securities, Inc. (“Dawson” or the “Placement Agent”) pursuant to which Dawson shall
serve as the exclusive placement agent (the “Services”) for the Company, on a reasonable “best efforts”
basis, in connection with the proposed offer and placement (the “Offering”) by the Company of its Securities
(as defined Section 3 of this Agreement). The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that Dawson’s obligations hereunder
are on a reasonable “best efforts” basis only and that the execution of this Agreement does not constitute a commitment
by Dawson to purchase the Securities and does not ensure the successful placement of the Securities or any portion thereof or the
success of Dawson placing the Securities.


 


		1.	Appointment of Dawson James Securities, Inc. as Exclusive Placement Agent. 



 


On the basis of the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company herein contained, and subject to all the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Company hereby appoints the Placement Agent as its exclusive placement agent in connection with a distribution
of its Securities to be offered and sold by the Company pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) on Form S-1 (File No. 333-227806), and Dawson agrees to act as the Company’s
exclusive Placement Agent. Pursuant to this appointment, the Placement Agent will solicit offers for the purchase of or attempt
to place all or part of the Securities of the Company in the proposed Offering. Until the final closing or earlier upon termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent,
solicit or accept offers to purchase the Securities other than through the Placement Agent. The Company acknowledges that the Placement
Agent will act as an agent of the Company and use its reasonable “best efforts” to solicit offers to purchase the Securities
from the Company on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Prospectus (as defined below). The Placement Agent
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by each Purchaser whose offer to purchase
Securities has been solicited by the Placement Agent, but the Placement Agent shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
be obligated to disclose the identity of any potential purchaser or have any liability to the Company in the event any such purchase
is not consummated for any reason. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agent be obligated to underwrite or purchase any Securities
for its own account and, in soliciting purchases of the Securities, the Placement Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Company.
The Services provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be on an “agency” basis and not on a “principal”
basis.


 


The Placement Agent
will solicit offers for the purchase of the Securities in the Offering at such times and in such amounts as the Placement Agent
deems advisable. The Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Securities and may reject any such offer, in
whole or in part. The Placement Agent may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents on its behalf in connection with
the Offering and may pay any sub-agent a solicitation fee with respect to any Securities placed by it. The Company and Placement
Agent shall negotiate the timing and terms of the Offering and acknowledge that the Offering and the provision of Placement Agent
services related to the Offering are subject to market conditions and the receipt of all required related clearances and approvals.


 


		2.	Fees; Expenses; Other Arrangements.



 


A.                 
Placement Agent’s Fee. As compensation for services rendered, the Company shall pay to the Placement Agent
in cash by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Placement Agent an amount (the
“Placement Fee”) equal to eight percent (8.0%) of the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company from
the sale of the Securities, at the closing (the “Closing” and the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing
Date”); and the Company shall issue to the Placement Agent or its designees at the Closing a five-year unit purchase
option to purchase such number of Units (as defined in Section 3) equal to 5.0% of the Units sold in this Offering at an exercise
price of $1.25 per unit (125% of the price per Unit), which unit purchase option shall be exercisable at any time, during the period
commencing 180 days from the effective date of the Registration Statement (the “Effective Date”) (the “Placement
Agent Unit Purchase Option” and together with the shares of Common Stock and Warrants (and Common Stock underlying such
Warrants) underlying the Placement Agent Unit Purchase Option, the “Placement Agent Securities”). The Placement
Agent may deduct from the net proceeds of the Offering payable to the Company on the Closing Date the Placement Fee set forth herein
to be paid by the Company to the Placement Agent.

Right of First Refusal. During the period ending 9 months after the Closing Date, if and only if a closing of the

as lead managing underwriter or book runner, or as lead placement agent, for any and all future equity, equity-linked or debt (excluding
non-convertible debt, at the market financing and strategic investments) offerings during such period, of the Company, or any successor
to or any subsidiary of the Company, subject to the rights previously granted to the Benchmark Company, LLC.


 


		3.	Description of the Offering. 



 


The Securities to be
offered directly to various investors (each, an “Investor” or “Purchaser” and, collectively,
the “Investors” or the “Purchasers”) in the Offering shall consist of a combination of up
to 7,300,000 units with each unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”
or “Shares”); and (ii) one-half of a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00
per whole share (the “Warrants”). The Common Stock and the Warrants will be sold as units (the “Units”,
with each Unit consisting of one Share and one-half of a Warrant to purchase one Share). The purchase price for one Unit shall
be $1.00 per Unit (the “Unit Purchase Price”). To the extent that the purchase of Common Stock would cause the
beneficial ownership of a Purchaser in the Offering, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, to exceed 4.99%
of the Common Stock, the Company agrees to issue such Purchaser, a number shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock
(the “Preferred Stock”), which is initially convertible on a 1-for-100,000 basis into Common Stock, in lieu
of the Common Stock included in the Unit. The Common Stock, Preferred Stock and Warrants shall be referred to as the “Securities”.
If the Company shall default in its obligations to deliver Securities to a Purchaser whose offer it has accepted and who has tendered
payment, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Placement Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage or expense arising from
or as a result of such default by the Company under this Agreement.

the order of the Company against delivery of the Securities. On the Closing Date, the Shares (or Preferred Stock) and Warrants
to which the Closing relates shall be delivered through such means as the parties may hereafter agree. The Securities shall be
registered in such name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Placement Agent may request in writing at least one

Agent the expenses provided for in Section 2.B. above and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Placement
Agent.

shall be construed to limit the ability of the Placement Agent, its officers, directors, employees, agents, associated persons
and any individual or entity “controlling,” controlled by,” or “under common control” with the Placement
Agent (as those terms are defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) to conduct its business including without limitation the

or (iii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of capital stock of the Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above is to be

prohibition period in Section 7.PP. herein, and provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or to the equityholders
of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic
with the business of the Company and shall provide to the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but
shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an
entity whose primary business is investing in securities.


 


QQ.

to the execution of this Agreement.

		9.	Indemnification and Contribution; Procedures. 



 


A.                 
Indemnification of the Placement Agent. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, its
affiliates and each person controlling such Placement Agent (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), and the directors,
officers, agents and employees of the Placement Agent, its affiliates and each such controlling person (the Placement Agent, and
each such entity or person hereafter is referred to as an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any losses,
claims, damages, judgments, assessments, costs and other liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”), and
shall reimburse each Indemnified Person for all fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the
Indemnified Persons, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) (collectively, the “Expenses”)
and agrees to advance payment of such Expenses as they are incurred by an Indemnified Person in investigating, preparing, pursuing
or defending any actions, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Preliminary
Prospectus, or the Prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) any materials or information provided
to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the Offering, including any “road
show” or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically); or (iii) any application
or other document or written communication (in this Section 9, collectively called “application”) executed by the Company
or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under the securities
laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, any national securities exchange; or the
omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance
upon, and in conformity with, the Placement Agent’s information. The Company also agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Person
for all Expenses as they are incurred in connection with such Indemnified Person’s enforcement of his or its rights under
this Agreement.


 






    	 	20	 



     

    

 



B.                 
Procedure. Upon receipt by an Indemnified Person of actual notice of an action against such Indemnified Person with
respect to which indemnity may reasonably be expected to be sought under this Agreement, such Indemnified Person shall promptly
notify the Company in writing; provided that failure by any Indemnified Person so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company
from any obligation or liability which the Company may have on account of this Section 9 or otherwise to such Indemnified Person,
except to the extent (and only to the extent) that its ability to assume the defense is actually impaired by such failure or delay.
The Company shall, if requested by the Placement Agent, assume the defense of any such action (including the employment of counsel
and reasonably satisfactory to the Placement Agent). Any Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel for the benefit of the
Placement Agent and the other Indemnified Persons or (ii) such Indemnified Person shall have been advised that in the opinion of
counsel that there is an actual or potential conflict of interest that prevents (or makes it imprudent for) the counsel engaged
by the Company for the purpose of representing the Indemnified Person, to represent both such Indemnified Person and any other
person represented or proposed to be represented by such counsel, it being understood, however, that the Company shall not be liable
for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), representing the Placement Agent and all Indemnified
persons who are parties to such action. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its written
consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). In addition, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Placement Agent, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened
action in respect of which advancement, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not
such Indemnified Person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional
release of each Indemnified Person, acceptable to such Indemnified Party, from all Liabilities arising out of such action for which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability
or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. The advancement, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution
obligations of the Company required hereby shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation
or defense, as every Liability and Expense is incurred and is due and payable, and in such amounts as fully satisfy each and every
Liability and Expense as it is incurred (and in no event later than 30 days following the date of any invoice therefor).


 


C.                 
Indemnification of the Company. The Placement Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors,
its officers who signed the Registration Statement and persons who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all Liabilities, but only with respect to untrue statements or
omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure
Package or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, the Placement Agent’s
Information. In case any action shall be brought against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any Preliminary
Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, and in respect
of which indemnity may be sought against the Placement Agent, the Placement Agent shall have the rights and duties given to the
Company, and the Company and each other person so indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the Placement Agent by
the provisions of Section 9.B. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Placement Agent of the commencement of any litigation
or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or any person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, in connection with the issuance and sale of the
Securities or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus, provided, that failure by the Company so to notify the Placement Agent shall
not relieve the Placement Agent from any obligation or liability which the Placement Agent may have on account of this Section
9.C. or otherwise to the Company, except to the extent the Placement Agent is materially prejudiced as a proximate result of such
failure..


 


 


 


 


 






    	 	21	 



     

    

 


D.                 
Contribution. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction makes a finding that indemnity is unavailable to
any indemnified person, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the Liabilities and Expenses paid or payable by such indemnified
person in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Placement
Agent and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation
provided by the immediately preceding clause is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative
fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, in connection
with the matters as to which such Liabilities or Expenses relate, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided
that in no event shall the Company contribute less than the amount necessary to ensure that all Indemnified Persons, in the aggregate,
are not liable for any Liabilities and Expenses in excess of the amount of commissions actually received by the Placement Agent
pursuant to this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the Company on the one hand or the Placement Agent on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (D) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any
other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (D).
For purposes of this paragraph, the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Placement Agent on the other
hand, of the matters contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as: (a) the total value received
by the Company in the Offering, whether or not such Offering is consummated, bears to (b) the commissions paid to the Placement
Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from a party who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.


 



E.                  
Limitation. The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect,
in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with advice or services rendered or to be rendered by any
Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby or any Indemnified Person’s actions
or inactions in connection with any such advice, services or transactions, except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction
has made a finding that Liabilities (and related Expenses) of the Company have resulted primarily from such Indemnified Person’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any such advice, actions, inactions or services.


 


F.                  
Survival. The advancement, reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations set forth in this Section 9 shall
remain in full force and effect regardless of any termination of, or the completion of any Indemnified Person’s services
under or in connection with, this Agreement. Each Indemnified Person is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 9,
and has the right to enforce the provisions of Section 9 as if he/she/it was a party to this Agreement.


 


		10.	Limitation of Dawson’s Liability to the Company. 



 


Dawson and the Company
further agree that neither Dawson nor any of its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, controlling persons
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), employees or agents shall have any
liability to the Company, its security holders or creditors, or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in the right of the
Company (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, for an act of negligence or otherwise) for any losses, fees, damages,
liabilities, costs, expenses or equitable relief arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services rendered hereunder,
except for losses, fees, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses that arise out of or are based on any action of or failure to
act by Dawson and that are finally judicially determined to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of Dawson.


 






    	 	22	 



     

    

 



		11.	Limitation of Engagement to the Company. 



 


The Company acknowledges
that Dawson has been retained only by the Company, that Dawson is providing services hereunder as an independent contractor (and
not in any fiduciary or agency capacity) and that the Company’s engagement of Dawson is not deemed to be on behalf of, and
is not intended to confer rights upon, any shareholder, owner or partner of the Company or any other person not a party hereto
as against Dawson or any of its affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, controlling persons (within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), employees or agents. Unless otherwise expressly
agreed in writing by Dawson, no one other than the Company is authorized to rely upon any statement or conduct of Dawson in connection
with this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that any recommendation or advice, written or oral, given by Dawson to the Company
in connection with Dawson’s engagement is intended solely for the benefit and use of the Company’s management and directors
in considering a possible Offering, and any such recommendation or advice is not on behalf of, and shall not confer any rights
or remedies upon, any other person or be used or relied upon for any other purpose. Dawson shall not have the authority to make
any commitment binding on the Company. The Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to reject any investor introduced
to it by Dawson. If any purchase agreement and/or related transaction documents are entered into between the Company and the investors
in the Offering, Dawson will be entitled to rely on the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the Company contained
in any such purchase agreement and related transaction documents as if such representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
were made directly to Dawson by the Company.


 


		12.	Amendments and Waivers. 



 


No supplement, modification
or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby. The failure of a party
to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy in the future. No waiver of
any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless
of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver be deemed or constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.


 


		13.	Confidentiality.



 


In the event of the
consummation or public announcement of any Offering, Dawson shall have the right to disclose its participation in such Offering,
including, without limitation, the placement at its cost of “tombstone” advertisements in financial and other newspapers
and journals. Dawson agrees not to use any confidential information concerning the Company provided to Dawson by the Company for
any purposes other than those contemplated under this Agreement.


 


		14.	Headings. 



 


The headings of the
various sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and will not be deemed to be part of this
Agreement.


 


		15.	Counterparts. 



 


This Agreement may
be executed in one or more counterparts and, if executed in more than one counterpart, the executed counterparts shall each be
deemed to be an original and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.


 


		16.	Severability. 



 


In case any provision
contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions contained herein will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


		17.	Use of Information. 



 


The Company will furnish
Dawson such written information as Dawson reasonably requests in connection with the performance of its services hereunder. The
Company understands, acknowledges and agrees that, in performing its services hereunder, Dawson will use and rely entirely upon
such information as well as publicly available information regarding the Company and other potential parties to an Offering and
that Dawson does not assume responsibility for independent verification of the accuracy or completeness of any information, whether
