This Debt Exchange
Agreement (this “Agreement”), effective as of __________ __, 2020, is entered into by and between Grom Social
Enterprises, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), and
the holder of the outstanding note issued by Company as described below (the “Holder”).


 


WHEREAS, the Holder
is currently the holder of one or more of the following notes issued by the Company (in either case, the “Note”):
(i) a 10% Convertible Promissory Note, (ii) a 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note secured by a first priority security
interest in and collateral assignment of (a) its wholly-owned subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to all of the
shares of stock of TDH Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“TDH”) and (b) TDH’s right, title and
interest in and to all of the shares of its wholly owned subsidiary, Top Draw Animation Hong Kong Limited, a Hong Kong corporation;
and/or (ii) a 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note secured by a first priority security interest in all the assets of
the Company other than those granted to the holders of the notes described in (ii); and


 


WHEREAS, the Holder
desires to convert all indebtedness due and payable pursuant to the Note, including accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into shares
of Series B 8% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”), the terms, preferences and
rights as described in the Certificate of Designation of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock which is annexed hereto as Exhibit
A, and the Company agrees to effectuate such conversion, all on the terms and conditions provided for in this Agreement.


 


NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:


 


1.         
The Exchange. 


 


(a)        Issuance
of Shares; Cancellation of Indebtedness. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined
below), the Company shall issue to the Holder __________ shares of Preferred Stock (the “Shares”) in exchange
for the cancellation of all indebtedness owed by the Company to the Holder pursuant to the terms of the Note, including without
limitation, all accrued interest thereon and the release of any security interests granted by the Company to the Holder (such exchange
hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange”).


 


(b)       Section 3(a)(9)
Transaction. It is the intent of the parties that the Exchange be effectuated pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) thereunder
and that, therefore, the holding period of the original indebtedness evidenced by the Note will, for securities law purposes, be
tacked to the holding period of the Shares.


 


(c)        Release.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Holder hereby releases, waives, discharges and relinquishes
any and all rights, claims, demands, contentions and causes of action of every kind, nature, character and description whatsoever,
whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, apparent or concealed, fixed or contingent, arising from the Note on or before
the Closing Date, which it now has or hereafter may be entitled to claim against the Company, its directors, officers, managers,
members, agents and employees (the “Released Parties”), including but without limiting the generality of foregoing,
all claims arising from or in connection with or otherwise resulting from any matter, event, state of facts, claim, contention
or cause whatsoever, occurring or existing in connection with or relating to the debt evidenced by the Note on or before the Closing
Date (collectively, the “Claims”). The Holder agrees that the waiver and release described in this Section 1(c)
applies to all Claims, whether or not the Holder currently knows about them or suspects that they exist. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary expressed or implied herein, however, none of the foregoing released Claims shall include any claims against a
Released Party arising by reason of such Released Party’s breach of this Agreement. In addition, none of the foregoing releases
extend to any breach of this Agreement, and no remedies for any such breach are being released herein.
