RE: Warrant Solicitation


 


Dear Mr. Moyer,


 


We are pleased that Summit Wireless Technologies,
Inc. (the “Company”) has decided to retain Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim” or the “Solicitation
Agent”) to provide financial advisory and investment banking services to the Company as set forth herein. This letter agreement
(“Agreement”) will confirm the Solicitation Agent’s acceptance of such retention and set forth the terms and
conditions of our engagement.


 


Pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees
to retain the Solicitation Agent as its exclusive lead warrant solicitation agent in connection with its contemplated solicitation of
the exercise of the Company’s warrants (the “Warrant Solicitation”) for the period of time set forth herein.
It is also understood and agreed that the Warrant Solicitation may include, as part of the global transaction, the issuance of new warrants
(the "New Warrant Issuance") to existing warrant holders that may participate in the Warrant Solicitation.


 


We understand that, in June of 2020, the Company
completed two registered direct offerings of securities, in which, amongst other securities, the Company issued Warrants to purchase 2,275,000
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.55 and Warrants to purchase 2,040,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of
$2.61 (together, the “Existing Warrants”).


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
and mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


		1.	Compliance with Applicable Securities Laws/Best Efforts. Each of the Company and the Solicitation
Agent agrees that the Warrant Solicitation by the Solicitation Agent’s shall be consistent with applicable federal and state securities
laws, the guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), applicable SEC rules and regulations,
including but not limited to Regulation M, regulations, instruments and rules, the rules, regulations and policies of all relevant stock
exchange(s), any applicable “most favored nation” provisions in the Existing Warrants regarding amendments thereto, and that
disclosure of the Company’s compensation arrangement with the Solicitation Agent will be made in documents provided to the holders
of the Warrants. Moreover, the Solicitation Agent shall, consistent with its obligations under applicable laws and the rules and regulations of
FINRA, use its reasonable best efforts to maximize the number of Existing Warrants which are exercised, including appropriate communications
with the record owners and beneficial owners of the Warrants, as well as said owners’ brokers, agents or other representatives.

Exhibit A


 


INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS


 


Capitalized terms used in
this Exhibit shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement to which this Exhibit is attached.


 


The Company agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless Maxim and each of the other Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined) from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, attorney’s fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind
or nature whatsoever, and any and all actions, suits, proceedings and investigations of any kind or nature whatsoever in respect thereof
and any and all legal fees and other costs, expenses and disbursements in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to a subpoena
or otherwise (including, without limitation, the legal fees, consulting or expert fees, costs, expenses and disbursements, as and when
incurred, of investigating, preparing, pursing or defending any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether or not in connection
with litigation in which any Indemnified Party is a party)) (collectively, “Losses”), directly or indirectly, caused
by, relating to, based upon, arising out of, or in connection with, Maxim’s acting for the Company, including, without limitation,
any act or omission by Maxim in connection with its acceptance of or the performance or non-performance of its obligations under the Agreement
between the Company and Maxim to which these indemnification provisions are attached and form a part (the “Agreement”),
any breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in the Agreement (or in any instrument, document
or agreement relating thereto, including any Agency Agreement), or the enforcement by Maxim of its rights under the Agreement or these
indemnification provisions, except to the extent that any such Losses are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction
(not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified
Party seeking indemnification hereunder. The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or
indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with the engagement of Maxim by the Company or for any
other reason, except to the extent that any such liability is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject
to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 


These Indemnification Provisions
shall extend to the following persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”): Maxim, its present, former and future
affiliated entities, managers, members, officers, directors, owners ,partners, stockholders, employees, legal counsel, agents, representatives
and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and its and their affiliated entities, managers, members,
officers, directors, owners, partners, stockholders, employees, legal counsel, agents, representatives and controlling persons of any
of them. These indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified
Party.


 


If any action, suit, proceeding
or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Party proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the Company with reasonable
promptness; provided, however, that any failure by an Indemnified Party to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company
from its obligations hereunder. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it, and the
fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Company. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with
its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company. The Company shall be liable for
and pay any settlement of any claim against any Indemnified Party made with the Company’s written consent. The Company shall not,
without the prior written consent of Maxim, settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgment
in respect thereof, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant
or claimants to all of the Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim, and (ii) does
not contain any factual or legal admission by or with respect to an Indemnified Party or an adverse statement with respect to the character,
professionalism, expertise or reputation of any Indemnified Party or any action or inaction of any Indemnified Party.

In order to provide for just
and equitable contribution, if a claim for indemnification pursuant to these indemnification provisions is made but it is found in a final
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case,
even though the express provisions hereof provide for indemnification in such case, then the Company shall contribute to the Losses to
which any Indemnified Party may be subject (i) in accordance with the relative benefits received by the Company and its stockholders,
subsidiaries and affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and (ii) if (and only if) the allocation provided
in clause (i) of this sentence is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as to reflect not only the relative benefits, but
also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements,
acts or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any relevant equitable considerations. No person found liable for a fraudulent
misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for fraudulent misrepresentation. The
relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its stockholders, subsidiaries and affiliates shall be deemed
to be equal to the aggregate consideration payable or receivable by such parties in connection with the transaction or transactions to
which the Agreement relates relative to the amount of fees actually received by Maxim in connection with such transaction or transactions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount contributed by all Indemnified Parties exceed the amount of fees previously
received by Maxim pursuant to the Agreement.


 


Neither termination nor completion
of the Agreement shall affect these Indemnification Provisions which shall remain operative and in full force and effect. The Indemnification
Provisions shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnified Parties
and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives.


 


The Company shall be required
to advance to the Indemnified Parties all legal fees, consultant and expert fees, costs, disbursements and other expenses relating to,
associated with or arising from the Losses.
