    Subscription
Agreement

     

    


    This
subscription (this “Subscription”) is
dated February __, 2009, by and between the investor identified on the signature
page hereto (the “Investor”) and
ParkerVision, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), whereby
the parties agree as follows:

     

    WHEREAS,
pursuant to two separate underwriting agreements, each of even date hereof,
between the Company and Roth Capital Partner, LLC, the Company has agreed to
sell, in underwritten offerings, certain of its securities (the “Underwritten
Offerings”);

     

    WHEREAS,
concurrently with and contingent upon the consummation of Underwritten
Offerings, the Company desires to sell, and the Investor desires to purchase
shares of the Company’s common stock;

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    1. Subscription.

     

    (a) Subject
to the consummation of the Underwritten Offerings, Investor agrees to buy and,
subject to acceptance as provided below, the Company agrees to sell and issue to
Investor, such number of shares (the “Shares”) of the
Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), as
are set forth on the signature page hereto, for the aggregate purchase price set
forth on the signature page hereto (the “Purchase
Price”).

     

    (b) The
Shares have been registered pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3,
Registration No. 333-156571, which registration statement (the “Registration
Statement”) has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is effective on the date hereof.  A final prospectus
supplement will be delivered as required by law.

     

    (c) The
Company may accept this Subscription at any time for all or any portion of the
Shares subscribed for by executing a copy hereof as provided and notifying the
Investor within a reasonable time thereafter. The Company has the right to
reject this subscription for the Common Stock, in whole or in part for any
reason and at any time prior to the Closing (as defined below) thereon,
notwithstanding prior receipt by the Investor of notice of acceptance of the
Investor’s subscription.  In the event the Investor’s subscription is
rejected, the Investor’s payment will be returned promptly to the Investor
without interest or deduction and this Subscription will have no force or
effect.  The Shares subscribed for herein will not be deemed issued to
or owned by the Investor until one copy of this Subscription has been executed
by the Investor and countersigned by the Company and the Closing with respect to
the Investor’s subscription has occurred.

     

    (d) Provided
that the full Purchase Price and a completed and manually executed copy of this
Subscription have been tendered and not returned in accordance with Section 2,
the closing of Investor’s purchase of the Shares shall occur concurrently with
the consummation of the Underwritten Offerings (the “Closing”).  Promptly
thereafter, the Company shall cause the Shares to be delivered to the Investor,
which delivery shall be made by delivery of physical certificates to Investor,
or if so designated, through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company’s
DWAC system in accordance with the instructions set forth on the Investor’s
signature page attached hereto under the heading “DWAC
Instructions.”

     

    2. Investor Delivery of
Documents and Payment.  The Investor hereby tenders to the
Company (i) the full Purchase Price by check or wire transfer to hold in a
non-interest bearing account until the Closing and (ii) one completed and
manually executed copy of this Subscription.  In the event that the
Closing is not consummated within 10 days of the date the Purchase Price is
delivered to the Company, unless otherwise agreed to by Investor in writing, the
Company shall return the Purchase Price to the undersigned, without interest or
deduction.

full corporate power and authority to enter into this Subscription and to
perform all of its obligations hereunder; (b) this Subscription has been duly

rights and remedies of creditors generally or subject to general principles of
equity; (c) the execution and delivery of this Subscription and the consummation

or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; and (g) all preemptive rights or rights of first refusal held by
stockholders of the Company and applicable to the transactions contemplated

understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof which are not contained
in this Subscription.  This Subscription may be modified only in writing
signed by the parties hereto.

     

    (b) This
Subscription may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken

this Subscription shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Subscription
and this Subscription shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or
illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such provision, had never been
contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable
to the maximum extent possible, so long as such construction does not materially
adversely effect the economic rights of either party hereto.
