        dated as of [●], 2021, is entered into by and among Focus Impact Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Focus Impact Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
        company (the “Purchaser”).

       

      WHEREAS, the Company intends to consummate an initial public offering of the Company’s units (the “Public Offering”), each unit
        consisting of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (each, a “Share”), and one-half of one warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder to
        purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share, as set forth in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),




        File Number 333-255448 (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

       

      WHEREAS, the Purchaser has agreed to purchase an aggregate of 11,200,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), each Private
        Placement Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, subject to adjustment.

       

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
        parties to this Agreement hereby, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows:

        Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 11,200,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $11,200,000 (the “Purchase

        least one (1) business day prior to the IPO Closing Date. On the IPO Closing Date, subject to the receipt of funds pursuant to the immediately prior sentence, the Company, at its option, shall deliver a certificate evidencing the Private Placement
        Warrants purchased on such date duly registered in the Purchaser’s name to the Purchaser or effect such delivery in book-entry form.

      (ii)       On the IPO Closing Date, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration and stockholder rights agreement (the “Registration and Stockholder Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will grant certain registration rights to the Purchaser relating to the Private Placement Warrants and the Shares
        underlying the Private Placement Warrants.

       

      Section 2.           Representations and Warranties of the Company. As a material inducement to the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and purchase the Private Placement Warrants, the Company hereby represents and warrants to
          the Purchaser (which representations and warranties shall survive the IPO Closing Date) that:

       

      A.          Incorporation and Corporate Power. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
        of the State of Delaware and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operating results or assets of the Company.

        this Agreement, the Private Placement Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms as of the IPO Closing Date.

        decree to which the Company is subject, except for any filings required after the date hereof under federal or state securities laws.

       

      C.          Title to Securities. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof and the Warrant Agreement, the Shares
        issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. On the date of issuance of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants
        shall have been reserved for issuance. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof and the Warrant Agreement, the Purchaser will have good title to the Private Placement Warrants purchased by it and the Shares
        issuable upon exercise of such Private Placement Warrants, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than (i) transfer restrictions hereunder and under the other agreements contemplated hereby, (ii) transfer
        restrictions under federal and state securities laws, and (iii) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Purchaser.

      A.          Organization and Requisite Authority. The Purchaser possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions
        contemplated by this Agreement.

       

      
        3

        
          


      

      B.          Authorization; No Breach.

       

      (i)        This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
        insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law).

       

      (ii)        The execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms hereof by the Purchaser does
        not and shall not as of the IPO Closing Date (a) conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms, conditions or provisions of, (b) constitute a default under, (c) result in the creation of any lien, security interest, charge or
        encumbrance upon the Purchaser’s equity or assets under, (d) result in a violation of, or (e) require authorization, consent, approval, exemption or other action by or notice or declaration to, or filing with, any court or administrative or
        governmental body or agency pursuant to the Purchaser’s organizational documents in effect on the date hereof or as may be amended prior to completion of the contemplated Public Offering, or any material law, statute, rule or regulation to which
        the Purchaser is subject, or any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject, except for any filings required after the date hereof under federal or state securities laws.

       

      C.          Investment Representations.

       

      (i)         The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such
        exercise (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution
        thereof.

       

      (ii)       The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3)
        of Regulation D, and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

       

      (iii)       The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration
        requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order
        to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities.

       

      (iv)        The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of
        Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act.

       

      (v)        The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to
        the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment
        in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.

       

      
        4

        
          


      

      (vi)        The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made
        any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

       

      (vii)      The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities
        laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration and Stockholder
        Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this
        regard, the Purchaser understands that the SEC has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after an initial business combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available for resale
        transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the
        Securities Act.

       

      (viii)     The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated with
        investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in
        the amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be
        jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investments in the Securities.

       

      (ix)        The Purchaser understands that the Private Placement Warrants shall bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant
        Agreement.

       

      Section 4.           Conditions of the Purchaser’s Obligations. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Private Placement Warrants are subject to the fulfillment, on or before the IPO Closing Date, of each

      Section 5.            Conditions of the Company’s Obligations. The obligations of the Company to the Purchaser under this Agreement are subject to the fulfillment, on or before the IPO

      B.          Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
        under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder
        of this Agreement.

       

      C.          Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, none of which need
        contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted via facsimile or e-mail shall be valid and effective to bind the party so

        without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a
