THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (the “Loan
Agreement”) is dated June 17, 2020 and made between:


 


		(1)	Neonode Technologies AB, registration number 556771-2095, address P.O. Box 5082, 102 42 Stockholm,
Sweden (the “Borrower”); and



 


		(2)	UMR Invest AB, registration number [***], address [***], Sweden (the “Lender”).



 


Each of the Borrower and the Lender is
referred to herein individually as a “Party” and jointly as the “Parties”.


 


		1	Introduction



 


		1.1	The Lender is a shareholder and member of the board of directors of Neonode Inc. (the “Company”,
and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”), a Delaware corporation, having its headquarters in Stockholm,
Sweden. The Borrower is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.



 


		1.2	The Company is contemplating to carry out a capital raise (the “Capital Raise”),
currently envisaged to take place on or before December 31, 2020. In order to ensure that the Company has sufficient cash to continue
its operations and repay its liabilities in the ordinary course of business, the Lender has made a commitment that, for the time
period up to the Capital Raise, upon notification from the Company’s chief financial officer that the Company requires cash
to continue as a going concern, the Lender will, subject to and contingent upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below,
provide or cause to be provided to the Company financing in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the minimum amount necessary which,
based upon the Company’s most recently prepared financial forecast, is reasonably expected to be required for the Company
to continue operations up to the Capital Raise, or (B) SEK 16,145,000. The obligation by the Lender to provide or cause to be provided
financing in accordance with the above is subject to and contingent upon (i) the preparation, execution and delivery of mutually
acceptable financing and other transaction documentation, and (ii) the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Company,
acting on behalf of the Company, having approved all transactions arising from or relating to such financing. It is acknowledged
by the Parties that execution of this Loan Agreement by the Parties is intended to fulfil condition (i) above.



 


		1.3	On or about the date hereof, the Borrower (as borrower) and Cidro Holding AB (shareholder and affiliated
with a member of the board of directors of the Company) (as lender) has entered, or will enter, into a loan agreement on similar
terms and conditions as included in this Loan Agreement whereby Cidro Holding AB makes available to the Borrower a term loan to
a principal amount of a maximum of SEK 16,145,000 (the “PL Loan Agreement”).



 


		2	Facility



 


		2.1	The Lender shall make available to the Borrower, during the time period up to the execution of
the Capital Raise, a term loan to a principal amount of a maximum of SEK 16,145,000 (the “Principal Amount”)
(the “Facility”).



 


 


 


Certain
personally identifiable information, marked by brackets as [***], has been omitted from this exhibit pursuant to Item 601(a)(6)
under Regulation S-K.


 




    1


     


    

 


		2.2	If the Capital Raise has not been executed on December 31, 2020 at the latest, the Facility shall
no longer be available to the Borrower.



 


		2.3	The Borrower shall apply all amounts borrowed by it under the Facility for the purpose of ensuring
that the Group has sufficient cash to continue its operations and repay its liabilities in the ordinary course of business.



 


		3	AVAILABILITY



 


		3.1	The Facility may be drawn down in one or several drawings in the maximum Principal Amount of SEK
16,145,000 by the Borrower giving the Lender not less than five business days written notice (or such lesser period as the Lender
may agree) specifying the date of the drawdown (the “Drawdown Date”).



 


		3.2	On the Drawdown Date, the full amount requested by the Borrower by written notice shall be disbursed
to the Borrower’s bank account, as designated by the Borrower.



 


		3.3	The Lender shall be under no obligation to fund the drawing of the Facility if the Capital Raise
has been carried out prior to the Lender disbursing the requested funds to the Borrower, or at any time after December 31, 2020.



 


		3.4	The Borrower shall ensure that any drawdown under the Facility, at the relevant Drawdown Date,
is made in an amount equal to a corresponding drawdown under the PL Loan Agreement.



 


		4	Credit Fee and interest



 


		4.1	The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fixed credit fee on the Principal Amount of 0.75 per cent
per annum computed from the date hereof until the Facility is no longer available for drawdown, i.e. after the execution of the
Capital Raise, or after December 31, 2020 (as applicable), and all of the outstanding Principal Amount is repaid in full. The credit
fee will be payable at the time when repayment of the Principal Amount is obligated to be made in accordance with Section 5 below
and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during the credit fee period and a year of 360 days.



 


		4.2	In addition to the fixed credit fee in accordance with Section 4.1 above, interest shall accrue
on the outstanding Principal Amount at a fixed interest rate of 3.25 per cent per annum computed from the relevant Drawdown Date
until all of the outstanding Principal Amount is repaid in full. Accrued interest will be added to the outstanding Principal Amount
and be payable at the time when repayment of the Principal Amount is obligated to be made in accordance with Section 5 below. Accrued
interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during the relevant interest period and a year of
360 days.



 


		5	Repayment



 


		5.1	The Borrower shall repay to the Lender
the full outstanding Principal Amount (including any unpaid accrued interest and credit fee in accordance with Section 4 above)
as soon as practicably possible unless otherwise agreed by the Parties following the execution of the Capital Raise in the Company.
The Borrower may also, in its sole discretion, make repayment(s) in full or in part of the outstanding Principal Amount (including
any unpaid accrued interest and credit fee in accordance with Section 4 above) to the Lender prior to the Capital Raise. In the
event the Capital Raise has not been carried out on December 31, 2020 at the latest, or the funds raised from the Capital Raise
are insufficient to cover full repayment of the outstanding Principal Amount (including any unpaid accrued interest and credit
fee in accordance with Section 4 above), then the full outstanding Principal Amount (including any unpaid accrued interest and
credit fee in accordance with Section 4 above) shall be due and payable by the Borrower on February 28, 2021 unless otherwise agreed
by the Parties.

Lender’s demand, pay late interest on such overdue amount from the relevant due date up to the date for actual payment at
a rate of one (1) per cent per month.



 


		7	Withholding



 


		7.1	All sums payable by the Borrower shall be paid without any withholding or deduction of tax or any
other amount unless required by law, in which event the Borrower will (if required by the Lender) forthwith pay to the Lender such
additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Lender of the full amount and will supply the Lender promptly with evidence
satisfactory to the Lender that the Borrower has accounted to the relevant authority for the sum withheld.



 


		7.2	If the Borrower makes a payment of an additional amount under
Section 7.1 above and the Lender determines that:



 


		(a)	a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of, any tax is attributable to all or part
of that payment; and



 


		(b)	the Lender has obtained, utilised and retained that tax credit,



 


the Lender shall pay an amount
to the Borrower which the Lender determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-tax position as it would have
been in had the tax payment not been made by the Borrower.
