PROXY STATEMENT FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

In this Proxy Statement, Summit Wireless Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is referred to as “Summit,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our.”

We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable federal securities laws and therefore permitted to conform with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. As an emerging growth company, we provide in this proxy statement the scaled disclosure permitted under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, ~~(the “JOBS Act”),~~ including the compensation disclosures required of a “smaller reporting company,” as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are not required to conduct votes seeking approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers or the frequency with which such votes must be conducted. We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering (“IPO”) in July 2018; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenue is equal to or more than $1.07 billion; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange ~~Commission.~~Commission (the “SEC”). Even after we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” we may remain a “smaller reporting company.”

Information Concerning the Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting

Proxies in the form enclosed with this Proxy Statement are being solicited by our ~~Board~~board of ~~Directors~~directors (the “Board”) for use at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at 2:1:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on ~~December 19, 2019~~October 20, 2020 at the Company’s offices at 8875 NE Von Neumann Dr., Suite 100, Hillsboro, Oregon 97006, and at any adjournment thereof. Your vote is very important. For this reason, our Board is requesting that you permit your common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and/or Series A 8% Senior Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), to be represented at the Annual Meeting by the proxies named on the enclosed proxy card. This Proxy Statement contains important information for you to consider when deciding how to vote on the matters brought before the Annual Meeting. Please read it carefully.

Voting materials, which include this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card, will be first mailed to stockholders on or about ~~November~~September 21, ~~2019.~~

2020.

Only stockholders of record of our Common Stock and stockholders of record of our Series A Preferred Stock as of the close of business on ~~November 12, 2019~~September 10, 2020 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, ~~24,570,247~~7,822,375 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding and 250,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding. Holders of Common Stock ~~and Series A Preferred Stock~~ are entitled to one (1) vote per share for each share of Common Stock ~~and/or share~~held by them and holders of our shares of Series A Preferred Stock ~~held by them.~~are entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, on an as converted basis. Stockholders may vote in person or by ~~proxy;~~proxy, by (i) using the instructions provided in the enclosed proxy card to vote online via the Internet or by telephone or (ii) completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope; however, granting a proxy does not in any way affect a stockholder’s right to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. Any stockholder giving a proxy has the right to revoke that proxy by (i) filing a later-dated proxy or a written notice of revocation with us at our principal office at any time before the original proxy is exercised or (ii) attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, as a precaution due to the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we are planning for the possibility that there may be limitations on attending the Annual Meeting in person, or we may decide to hold the Annual Meeting on a different date, at a different location or by means of remote communication (i.e., a “virtual meeting”).

Brett Moyer is named as attorney-in-fact in the proxy. Mr. Moyer is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Moyer will vote all shares represented by properly executed proxies returned in time to be counted

TABLE OF CONTENTS

at the Annual Meeting, as described below under “Voting Procedures.” Where a vote has been specified in the proxy with respect to the matters identified in the Notice of the Annual Meeting, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with those voting specifications. If no voting instructions are indicated, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board on all matters, and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote before the Annual Meeting.

The stockholders will consider and vote upon (i) a proposal to elect eight (8) members of our Board, each to serve until the ~~2020~~2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal (“Proposal No. 1”); ~~and~~ (ii) a proposal to ratify the Board’s selection of BPM LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (“Proposal No. 2”); and (iii) a proposal to adopt our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (“Proposal No. 3”). Stockholders also will consider and act upon such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Voting Procedures and Vote Required

Mr. Moyer will vote all shares represented by properly executed proxies returned in time to be counted at the Annual Meeting. The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock, in the aggregate, entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to establish a quorum for the transaction of business. Your shares will be counted for purposes of determining if there is a quorum if (i) you are entitled to vote and you are present in person at the Annual Meeting; or (ii) you have properly voted by proxy online, by telephone, or by submitting a proxy card by mail. Shares represented by proxies which contain an abstention and “broker non-vote” shares (described below) are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

The broker non-votes are counted because there are routine matters presented at the Annual Meeting.

All properly executed proxies delivered pursuant to this solicitation and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting as specified in such proxies.

Vote Required for Election of Directors (Proposal No. 1). Our certificate of incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of ~~Incorporation, as amended,~~Incorporation”), does not authorize cumulative voting. ~~Delaware law and our Bylaws~~Our bylaws (“Bylaws”) provide that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock inare convertible, on an as converted basis, voting together, present at the ~~aggregate, present~~Annual Meeting, in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and ~~entitled to vote~~voting on the ~~election of directors.~~matter. This means that the eight (8) candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Annual Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or shares present by proxy where the stockholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee will not be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality.

Vote Required for Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Proposal ~~No.~~No . 2). Our Bylaws provide that all matters (other than the election of directors and except to the extent otherwise required by ~~our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or~~ applicable Delaware law) shall be determined by a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. Accordingly, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock ~~in the aggregate,~~are convertible, on an as converted basis, voting together, present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter, will be required to ratify the Board’s selection of BPM LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, ~~2019.~~

2020.

Vote Required for Adoption of our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (Proposal No. 3). Our Bylaws provide that all matters (other than the election of directors and except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Delaware law) shall be determined by a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. Accordingly, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock are convertible, on an as converted basis, voting together, present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter, will be required to adopt our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If you hold shares beneficially in street name and do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Generally, broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. Brokers that have not received voting instructions from their clients cannot vote on their clients’ behalf on “non-routine” proposals. Broker non-votes are not counted in tabulating the voting result for any particular proposal and shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote.

The vote on each of Proposal No. 1 and Proposal No. 3 is considered “non-routine” and the vote on Proposal No. 2 is considered “routine.”

Abstentions are counted as “shares present” at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum but are not counted in the calculation of the vote.

Votes at the Annual Meeting will be tabulated by one or more inspectors of election appointed by Brett Moyer, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Stockholders will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights with respect to any matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

Delivery of Documents to Stockholders Sharing an Address

We will send only one set of Annual Meeting materials and other corporate mailings to stockholders who share a single address unless we received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, ~~the Company~~we will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Annual Meeting materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the Annual Meeting materials was delivered. You may make such a written or oral request by sending a written notification stating (i) your name, (ii) your shared address and (iii) the address to which ~~the Company~~we should direct the additional copy of the Annual Meeting materials to ~~the Company~~us at Corporate Secretary, 6840 Via Del Oro, Suite 280, San Jose, California 95119, telephone: (408) 627-4716.

If multiple stockholders sharing an address have received one copy of the Annual Meeting materials or any other corporate mailing and would prefer ~~the Company~~us to mail each stockholder a separate copy of future mailings, you may send notification to or call ~~the Company’s~~our principal executive offices. Additionally, if current stockholders with a shared address received multiple copies of the Annual Meeting materials or other corporate mailings and would prefer ~~the Company~~us to mail one copy of future mailings to stockholders at the shared address, notification of such request may also be made by mail or by calling ~~the Company’s~~our principal executive offices.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

The Board oversees our business affairs and monitors the performance of our management. In accordance with our corporate governance principles, the Board does not involve itself in day-to-day operations. The directors keep themselves informed through discussions with the Chief Executive Officer, other key executives and by reading the reports and other materials sent to them and by participating in Board and committee meetings. Our directors hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal, or if for some other reason they are unable to serve in the capacity of director.

~~Director Independence~~

Our Board currently consists of eight (8) members: Brett Moyer; Jonathan Gazdak; Dr. Jeffrey M. Gilbert; Helge Kristensen; ~~Sam Runco; Brian Herr;~~ Michael Howse; Lisa Cummins; Robert Tobias; and ~~Lisa Cummins Dulchinos.~~Sriram Peruvemba. All of our directors will serve until our next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal.

Director Independence

As ~~we are~~our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, our determination of the independence of directors is made using the definition of “independent director” contained in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Marketplace Rules of the Nasdaq Stock ~~Market.~~Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). Our Board affirmatively determined that Dr. Jeffrey M. Gilbert, Helge Kristensen, ~~Sam Runco, Brian Herr and~~Sriram Peruvemba, Lisa Cummins ~~Dulchinos~~and Robert Tobias are “independent directors,” as that term is defined in the Marketplace Rules of Nasdaq. Under the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq, our Board must be composed of a majority of “independent directors.” Additionally, subject to certain limited exceptions, our audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees also must be composed of all independent directors. Upon our payment to Hansong Technology, which is an original device manufacturer of audio products based in China and which Mr. Kristensen has served as vice president of for the last 18 years, it is very likely that Mr. Kristensen would no longer meet the qualifications of an “independent director,” in which case our Board would replace Mr. Kristensen promptly on each committee with another independent director on the Board to comply with the independence requirements under the Nasdaq ~~Stock Market.~~

rules, in order to avoid being delisted.

The rules of Nasdaq require that each member of a listed company’s audit and compensation committees be independent. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Under the rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

To be considered to be independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his capacity as a member of our audit committee, our board of directors, or any other committee of our board of directors: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our Board has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that the following members of our Board have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director: Brett Moyer, Jonathan Gazdak and Michael Howse, and that other than such directors, each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq. In making this determination, our Board considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each non-employee director. Our Board has also determined that Messrs. Kristensen and Peruvemba satisfy the independence standards for the audit committee established by the listing standards of Nasdaq and

Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Our Board has determined that Mr. Kristensen and Dr. Gilbert satisfy the independence standards for the compensation committee established by the listing standards of Nasdaq and are “independent directors” for committee purposes (as determined under the listing standards of Nasdaq. However, upon our payment to Hansong Technology, as discussed above, it is very likely that Mr. Kristensen would no longer meet the qualifications of an “independent director,” in which case our Board would replace Mr. Kristensen promptly on each committee with another independent director on the Board to comply with the independence requirements under the Nasdaq rules, in order to avoid being delisted.

Board Meetings and Attendance

During fiscal year ~~2018,~~2019, the Board held 1110 physical/telephonic meetings. No incumbent director attended, either in person or via telephone, fewer than 75% of the aggregate of all meetings of the Board and the committees of the Board, for which at the time of the meeting they were a member of the Board, except ~~Mr.~~for Brian Herr and Sam Runco who attended ~~67%~~less than 75% of the meetings of the Board.

Compensation Committee

The members of our Compensation Committee are Helge Kristensen, ~~Brian Herr~~Robert Tobias and Dr. Jeffrey M. Gilbert. Messrs. Kristensen, ~~Herr~~Tobias and Gilbert are “independent” within the meaning of the Marketplace Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. However, upon our payment to Hansong Technology, as discussed

TABLE OF CONTENTS

above, it is very likely that Mr. Kristensen would no longer meet the qualifications of an “independent director,” in which case our Board would replace Mr. Kristensen promptly on this Compensation Committee with another independent director on the Board to comply with the independence requirements under the Nasdaq rules, in order to avoid being delisted. In addition, each member of our Compensation Committee qualifies as a “non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Our Compensation Committee assists the Board in the discharge of its responsibilities relating to the compensation of the members of the Board and our executive officers. Mr. Kristensen serves as Chairman of our Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee’s compensation-related responsibilities include, among other matters:

~~reviewing and approving, or recommending that our board of directors approve, the compensation of our executive officers;~~

~~reviewing and recommending to our board of directors the compensation of our directors;~~

~~reviewing and approving, or recommending that our board of directors approve, the terms of compensatory arrangements with our executive officers;~~

~~administering our stock and equity incentive plans;~~

~~reviewing and approving, or recommending that our board of directors approve, incentive compensation and equity plans; and~~

present, except for Brian Herr who was unable to attend one meeting. Mr. Moyer, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, does not participate in the determination of his own compensation or the compensation of directors. However, he makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the amount and form of the compensation of the other executive officers and key employees, and he often participates in the Compensation Committee’s deliberations about such persons’ compensation. George Oliva, our Chief Financial Officer, assists the Compensation Committee in its deliberations regarding executive officer, director and employee compensation. No other executive officers participate in the determination of the amount or the form of the compensation of executive officers or directors. The Compensation Committee does not utilize the services of an independent compensation consultant to assist in its oversight of executive and director compensation. On January 30, 2018, the Board adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The members of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are ~~Brian Herr,~~Robert Tobias, Helge Kristensen and ~~Sam Runco.~~Sriram Peruvemba. Messrs. ~~Herr,~~Tobias, Kristensen and ~~Runco~~Peruvemba are “independent” within the meaning of the Marketplace Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. However, upon our payment to Hansong Technology, as discussed above, it is very likely that Mr. Kristensen would no longer meet the qualifications of an “independent director,” in which case our Board would replace Mr. Kristensen promptly on this Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with another independent director on the Board to comply with the independence requirements under the Nasdaq rules, in order to avoid being delisted. In addition, each member of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee qualifies as a “non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. The purpose of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to recommend to the Board nominees for election as directors and persons to be elected to fill any vacancies on the Board, develop and recommend a set of corporate governance principles and oversee the performance of the Board. Mr. Kristensen serves as Chairman of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s responsibilities include, among other things:

~~identifying, evaluating and selecting, or recommending that our board of directors approve, nominees for election to our board of directors and its committees;~~

~~evaluating the performance of our board of directors and of individual directors;~~

~~considering and making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the composition of our board of directors and its committees;~~

Our Nominating and Governance Committee strives for a Board composed of individuals who bring a variety of complementary skills, expertise or background and who, as a group, will possess the appropriate skills and experience to oversee our business. The diversity of the members of the Board relates to the selection of its nominees. While the Committee considers diversity and variety of experiences and viewpoints to be important factors, it does not believe that a director nominee should be chosen or excluded solely or largely because of race, color, gender, national origin or sexual orientation or identity. In ~~2018,~~selecting a director nominee for recommendation to our Board, our Nominating and Governance Committee focuses on skills, expertise or background that would complement the existing members on the Board. Accordingly, although diversity may be a consideration in the Committee’s process, the Committee and the Board do not have a formal policy regarding the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees.

When the Nominating and Governance Committee has either identified a prospective nominee or determined that an additional or replacement director is required, the Nominating and Governance Committee may take such measures as it considers appropriate in connection with its evaluation of a director candidate, including candidate interviews, inquiry of the person or persons making the recommendation or nomination, engagement of an outside search firm to gather additional information, or reliance on the knowledge of the members of the Board or management. In its evaluation of director candidates, including the members of the Board eligible for re-election, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers a number of factors, including: the current size and composition of the Board, the needs of the Board of Directors and the respective committees of the Board, and such factors as judgment, independence, character and integrity, age, area of expertise, diversity of experience, length of service and potential conflicts of interest.

The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board selects director nominees and recommends them to the full Board. In relation to such nomination process, the Nominating and Governance Committee:

•

determines the criteria for the selection of prospective directors and committee members;

•

reviews the composition and size of the Board and its committees to ensure proper expertise and diversity among its members;

•

evaluates the performance and contributions of directors eligible for re-election;

•

determines the desired qualifications for individual directors and desired skills and characteristics for the Board;

•

identifies persons who can provide needed skills and characteristics;

•

screens possible candidates for Board membership;

•

reviews any potential conflicts of interests between such candidates and the Company’s interests; and

•

shares information concerning the candidates with the Board and solicits input from other directors.

The Nominating and Governance Committee has specified the following minimum qualifications that it believes must be met by a nominee for a position on the Board: the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity; proven achievement and competence in the nominee’s field and the ability to exercise sound business judgment; skills that are complementary to those of the existing Board; the ability to assist and support management and make significant contributions to our success; the ability to work well with the other directors; the extent of the person’s familiarity with the issues affecting our business; an understanding of the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a member of the Board; and the commitment of time and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

energy necessary to diligently carry out those responsibilities. A candidate for director must agree to abide by our Code of Ethics and Conduct.

After completing its evaluation, the Nominating and Governance Committee makes a recommendation to the full Board as to the persons who should be nominated to the Board, and the Board determines the nominees after considering the recommendation and report of the Committee.

Our Board does not have a policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by stockholders, but would consider candidates recommended by stockholders. Our Board does not have such a policy because we do not reasonably expect to receive any director candidates recommended by stockholders based on past meetings. In the case of director candidates recommended by stockholders, our board of directors would evaluate such candidates using the factors described above.

In 2019, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee ~~did not hold any meetings~~held one (1) meeting at which all of the members of the then current Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee were present.

Family Relationships

There are no relationships between any of the officers or directors of the Company.

(“Quantum3D”), a company of which Mr. Williams had been serving as chief financial officer, as a result of his prior experience in corporate restructuring, was placed into an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

Leadership Structure of the Board

The Board does not currently have a policy on whether the same person should serve as both the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board or, if the roles are separate, whether the Chairman should be selected from the non-employee directors or should be an employee. The Board believes that it should have the flexibility to make these determinations at any given point in time in the way that it believes best to provide appropriate leadership for the Company at that time. Mr. Moyer is both the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.

Director Nomination Procedures

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Board.

Risk Oversight

The Board oversees risk management directly and through its committees associated with their respective subject matter areas. Generally, the Board oversees risks that may affect the business of the Company as a whole, including operational matters. The Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and also discusses with management the Company’s financial statements, internal controls and other accounting and related matters. The Compensation Committee oversees certain risks related to compensation programs, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees certain corporate governance risks. As part of their roles in overseeing risk management, these committees periodically report to the Board regarding briefings provided by management and advisors as well as the committees’ own analysis and conclusions regarding certain risks faced by the Company. Management is responsible for implementing the risk management strategy and developing policies, controls, processes and procedures to identify and manage risks.

As set forth in the Company’s insider trading policy, which was adopted by the Board on July 19, 2018, the Company strongly discourages insiders, including the Company’s employees, including officers or directors, or any of their designees, from engaging in any hedging transactions involving (i) Company securities acquired under employee benefit plans or (ii) Company securities required to be held under stock ownership guidelines. Any person wishing to enter into such an arrangement must first pre-clear the proposed transaction with our Chief Financial Officer. Any request for pre-clearance of a hedging or similar arrangement must be submitted to our Chief Financial Officer at least two (2) weeks prior to the proposed execution of documents evidencing the proposed transaction.

The LTIP is intended to enable the Company to continue to attract able directors, employees, and consultants and to provide a means whereby those individuals upon whom the responsibilities rest for successful administration and management of the Company, and whose present and potential contributions are of importance, can acquire and maintain Common Stock ownership, thereby strengthening their concern for the Company’s welfare. The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock (including shares underlying options) that may be issued under the LTIP pursuant to awards of Restricted Shares or Options will be limited to 15% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which calculation shall be made on the first ~~business~~trading day of each new fiscal year; provided that, in any year no more than 8% of the Common Stock or derivative securitization with Common Stock underlying 8% of the Common Stock may be issued in any fiscal year. For fiscal year 2018, up to ~~300,000~~15,000 shares of Common Stock, after giving effect to a one-for-twenty reverse stock split effective on April 9, 2020, were initially available for participants under the LTIP, which shares were granted outside the LTIP’s first year share availability pool. For fiscal year 2019, up to ~~2,304,909~~115,245 shares of Common Stock, ~~are~~after giving effect to a one-for-twenty reverse stock split effective on April 9, 2020, were available for participants under the LTIP. The number of shares of Common Stock that are the subject of awards under the LTIP which are forfeited or terminated, are settled in cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock or in a manner such that all or some of the shares covered by an award are not issued to a participant or are exchanged for awards that do not involve shares will again immediately become available to be issued pursuant to awards granted under the LTIP. If shares of Common Stock are withheld from payment of an award to satisfy tax obligations with respect to the award, those shares of Common Stock will be treated as shares that have been issued under the LTIP and will not again be available for issuance under the LTIP.

In connection with the termination of the Carve-Out Plan and the approval of the LTIP on January 31, 2018, the Company issued ~~1,284,470~~64,223 and ~~153,126~~7,656 shares of restricted common stock, each after giving effect to a one-for-twenty reverse stock split effective on April 9, 2020, to certain of its employees and directors, respectively, whose proceeds under the Carve-Out Plan were vested as of that date (the “January 2018 Restricted Stock Grant”). Such shares were issued to such persons on January 31, 2018, and were to be released in three equal tranches on September 1, 2018, March 1, 2019 and September 1, 2019. As of December 31, ~~2018, 473,091~~2019, all of the shares of such restricted common stock were released, ~~and 929,264 shares of restricted common stock were released on each of March 1, 2019 and September 1, 2019,~~ with an additional ~~35,241~~1,056, after giving effect to a one-for-twenty reverse stock split effective on April 9, 2020, shares to be released to a terminated employee in ~~five~~three equal tranches over the next 2614 months pursuant to the terms of such employee’s restricted stock agreement.

The January 2018 Restricted Stock Grant and the LTIP were approved by a majority of the Company’s stockholders on January 31, 2018.

Non-Equity Incentive Plans

On January 30, 2018, the Company terminated the Company’s Carve-Out Plan. Prior to its cancellation, our employees and directors of the Company were entitled to participate in the Carve-Out Plan at the discretion of the Company’s Board. Each Carve-Out Plan participant was awarded points which entitled that participant to a portion of the proceeds payable to the Company and/or its members upon a sale of the Company. The proceeds payable to a Carve-Out Plan participant were equal to an amount determined in accordance with the following formula: (number of points held by participant divided by total points outstanding) multiplied by 18% of Net Sale Price. For this purpose, “Net Sale Price” equaled the aggregate amount payable to the Company and/or its members in connection with a sale of the Company less all amounts payable to creditors of the Company.

~~Other Compensation~~

Other than as described above, there were no post-employment compensation, pension or nonqualified deferred compensation benefits earned by our Named Executive Officers during the year ended December 31, 2018. We do not have any retirement, pension or profit-sharing programs for the benefit of our directors, officers or other employees. The Board may recommend adoption of one or more such programs in the future.

Michael Howse

The Company is party to an agreement with Michael Howse, dated April 6, 2018, as amended effective as of December 27, 2018 (the “Howse Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Howse was appointed interim role as chief strategy officer on an “at-will” basis in consideration for a monthly cash salary as well as (i) a warrant to purchase ~~110,000~~5,500 shares of our common stock, exercisable at a per share price of ~~$2.00~~$40.00 and which vested monthly over a nine-month period and which fully vested on January 6, 2019 and (ii) a warrant to purchase ~~165,000~~8,250 shares of our common stock, exercisable at a per share price of ~~$2.00,~~$40.00, which shall vest, so long as Mr. Howse continues to serve as interim chief strategy officer and/or as a member of our ~~board of directors,~~Board, (x) as to ~~110,000~~5,500 shares of common stock upon the achievement of a significant milestone and (y) as to ~~65,000~~2,750 shares of common stock upon the achievement of an additional significant milestone.

In addition, pursuant to the Howse Agreement, we also agreed to appoint Mr. Howse to our Board, where he may only be removed for cause, or his termination or resignation.

Under the Howse Agreement, if the Company raises capital in one or more financings from certain pre-approved strategic investors, or is acquired by a third-party during the period that Mr. Howse serves as interim chief strategy officer (or within six months thereafter), he will receive a percentage cash bonus concurrently with the closing of such transaction based on the amount raised or consideration paid for the Company, as applicable, (A) which bonus doubles in the event that the Company does not incur an amount equal to 2% or more of the Consideration (as defined in the Howse Agreement) in fees to any investment bank in connection with such transaction, if such transaction is a Fundamental Transaction (such fees, “General Expenses”), and (B) 50% of which bonus may be paid as a convertible note or preferred equity with the same terms as the other participants in such transaction, if such transaction is a financing. Pursuant to the Howse Agreement, we may terminate Mr. Howse at any time, with or without cause, upon 90 days’ prior written notice. Such agreement provides for Company-sponsored benefits in accordance with our policies. Pursuant to the Howse Agreement, effective November 1, 2018, Mr. Howse was placed on our payroll and is now considered a part-time Company employee.

Pursuant to Warrant Amendment Agreements that were entered into with each of the Medalist Funds, with respect to the Series F Warrants and Series G Warrants, if the exercise of an Original Warrant at the Reduced Exercise Price would cause each of the Medalist Funds to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, in lieu of receiving such number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Company will only issue such number of shares of Common Stock to each of the Medalist Funds as would not cause each of the Medalist Funds to exceed the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted under the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and each of the Medalist Funds shall be issued, at an exercise price equal to the Reduced Exercise Price less ~~$0.79~~$15.80 per share, pre-funded common stock purchase warrants covering such number of shares of Common Stock as would otherwise have been in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”).

~~Review of~~ Related ~~Party Transactions~~

Person Transaction Policy

Our Audit Committee considers and approves or disapproves any related person transaction as required by Nasdaq Stock Market regulations. The Company’s written policies and procedures on related party transactions cover any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which: (i) the Company (or any subsidiary) is a participant; (ii) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest; and (iii) the aggregate amount involved (including any interest payable with respect to indebtedness) will or may be expected to exceed $120,000, except that there is no $120,000 threshold for members of the Audit Committee. A related party is any: (i) person who is or was (since the beginning of the two fiscal years preceding the last fiscal year, even if they do not presently serve in that role) an executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director; (ii) greater than five percent (5%) beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock; or (iii) immediate family member of any of the foregoing. An immediate family member includes a person’s spouse, parents, stepparents, children, stepchildren, siblings, mothers- and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the same household as such person.

In determining whether to approve or ratify a related party transaction, the Audit Committee, or disinterested directors, as applicable, will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate: (i) whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; (ii) the nature and extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction; (iii) the material terms of the transactions; (iv) the importance of the transaction both to the Company and to the related party; (v) in the case of a transaction involving an executive officer or director, whether the transaction would interfere with the performance of such person’s duties to the Company; and (vi) in the case of a transaction involving a non-employee director or a nominee for election as a non-employee director (or their immediate family member), whether the transaction would disqualify the director or nominee from being deemed an “independent” director, as defined by Nasdaq, and whether the transaction would disqualify the individual from serving on the Audit Committee or the Compensation Committee or other committees of the Board under applicable Nasdaq and other regulatory requirements.

The Audit Committee only approves those related party transactions that are on terms comparable to, or more beneficial to us than, those that could be obtained in arm’s length dealings with an unrelated third party.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The following Report of the Audit Committee (the “Audit Report”) does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act ~~of 1933, as amended,~~ or the ~~Securities~~ Exchange Act, ~~of 1934, as amended,~~ except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Audit Report by reference therein.

Role of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee’s primary responsibilities fall into three (3) broad categories:

First, the Audit Committee is charged with monitoring the preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by the Company’s management, including discussions with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm about draft annual consolidated financial statements and key accounting and reporting matters;

Second, the Audit Committee is responsible for matters concerning the relationship between the Company and its independent registered public accounting firm, including recommending ~~their~~its appointment or removal; reviewing the scope of ~~their~~its audit services and related fees, as well as any other services being provided to the Company; and determining whether the independent registered public accounting firm is independent (based in part on the annual letter provided to the Company pursuant to Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”); and

Third, the Audit Committee reviews financial reporting, policies, procedures, and internal controls of the Company.

The Audit Committee has implemented procedures to ensure that during the course of each fiscal year it devotes the attention that it deems necessary or appropriate to each of the matters assigned to it under the Audit Committee’s charter. In overseeing the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Audit Committee met with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, including meetings with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm without management present, to review and discuss all consolidated financial statements prior to their issuance and to discuss significant accounting issues. Management advised the Audit Committee that all consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Audit Committee discussed the consolidated financial statements with both management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee’s review included discussion with the independent registered public accounting firm of matters required to be discussed pursuant PCAOB Auditing Standard 1301, “Communication with Audit Committees.”

With respect to the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee, among other things, discussed with BPM LLP matters relating to its independence, including the disclosures made to the Audit Committee as required by PCAOB.

Recommendations of the Audit Committee. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board ~~of Directors~~ that the Board ~~of Directors~~ approve the inclusion of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019 for filing with the SEC.

ADOPTION OF THE 2020 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

(Proposal No. 3)

Overview

The Company is seeking stockholder approval for its 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) including the reservation of 650,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan was adopted by the Board on July 27, 2020, subject to stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting. To date, 614,824 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) have been granted under the 2020 Plan, subject to our stockholders’ approval.

The purpose of the 2020 Plan is to attract and retain senior managers, employees, directors, consultants, professionals and service providers who provide services to the Company, provided that such services are bona fide services that are not of a capital-raising nature (“Eligible Persons”) during this period of unprecedented uncertainty and volatility in the COVID-19 environment and its impact on the value of the Company’s equity and grants. The 2020 Plan provides both for the direct award of shares, for the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock, as well as for the grant of RSUs. All options granted under the 2020 Plan will be considered non-qualified stock options.

The Company has a policy of awarding significant amounts of restricted stock grants to the Company’s directors, officers employees and consultants on an annual basis. If our stockholders approve the 2020 Plan, the Company intends for any RSUs granted and any stock options that may be granted in the future to Eligible Persons be granted on a similar basis, and at that such options be granted at the market price on the date of grant. Restricted stock grants have generally vested over one or more years, and if our stockholders approve the 2020 Plan, the Company intends that, for any stock options and RSUs granted, Eligible Persons may only receive shares of Common Stock so long as such grants have vested from time to time, in whole or in part, in the manner and subject to the conditions that the Board or its compensation committee in its discretion may provide in the applicable award agreement.

The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders for the Company to approve the 2020 Plan. There are relatively few shares available for grant under the existing 2018 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan of the Company (the “LTIP”). The LTIP was approved in January 2018 and has not been amended once since its original approval. The Board believes that equity awards assist in retaining, motivating and rewarding Eligible Persons by giving them an opportunity to obtain long-term equity participation in the Company. In addition, equity awards are an important contributor to aligning the incentives of the Company’s employees and other service providers with the interests of our stockholders. Our Board also believes that equity awards are essential to attracting new employees and retaining current employees. Further, the granting of options to new and existing employees frequently permits the Company to pay lower salaries than otherwise might be the case. The Board believes that to remain competitive with other technology companies in our long-term incentive plans, the Company must continue to provide employees with the opportunity to obtain equity in the Company and that an inability to offer equity incentives to new and current employees would put the Company at a competitive disadvantage in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. Our named executive officers and directors have an interest in this Proposal No. 3 because they have received RSUs under the 2020 Plan, which grants are subject to the approval of the 2020 Plan at this Annual Meeting.

Plan Summary

Our Board adopted the 2020 Plan on June 25, 2020. At the Annual Meeting, we are asking stockholders to approve the 2020 Plan and the reservation of 650,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan authorizes us to issue 650,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of stock options, the grant of restricted stock awards and the conversion of RSUs (collectively, the “Awards”). No options or restricted stock awards have been granted under the 2020 Plan to date, however an aggregate of 614,824 RSUs have been granted to Eligible Persons under the 2020 Plan to date.

The following paragraphs provide a summary of the principal features of the 2020 Plan and its operation. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2020 Plan as set forth in Appendix A.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Administration

The 2020 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”). The Compensation Committee will have full authority, subject to the terms of the 2020 Plan, to interpret the 2020 Plan and establish rules and regulations for the proper administration of the 2020 Plan. Each of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Secretary of the Company shall be authorized to implement the 2020 Plan in accordance with its terms and to take such actions of a ministerial nature as shall be necessary to effectuate the intent and purposes of the 2020 Plan. The validity, construction and effect of the 2020 Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the 2020 Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

Number of Shares of Common Stock Subject to the 2020 Plan and Award Limit

The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock underlying options and RSUs) that may be issued under the 2020 Plan will be limited to 650,000 shares of Common Stock.

In the event that, prior to the date on which the 2020 Plan shall terminate, any Award granted under the 2020 Plan expires unexercised or unvested or is terminated, surrendered or cancelled without the delivery of shares of Common Stock, or any Awards are forfeited back to the Company, then the shares of Common Stock subject to such Award may be made available for subsequent Awards under the terms of the 2020 Plan.

Eligibility

All senior managers, employees, directors, consultants, professionals and service providers who provide services to the Company are eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan. The selection of those eligible employees, directors and consultants who will receive the Awards is within the discretion of the Compensation Committee. As of September 10, 2020, approximately 33 employees, 3 executive officers, and 7 non-employee directors were eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan.

Term of 2020 Plan

The 2020 Plan becomes effective as of the date on which the Board adopted the 2020 Plan, which was June 25, 2020, and it shall automatically terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of such date. No further Awards may be granted under the 2020 Plan after such date of termination. In addition, in the event that the stockholders of the Company do approve the 2020 Plan within twelve (12) months of such effective date, the 2020 Plan shall terminate. The Board may terminate, suspend or amend the Plan at any time without stockholder approval except to the extent that stockholder approval is required to satisfy applicable requirements imposed by (a) Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange or any successor rule or regulation; or (b) the rules of any exchange on or through which the shares of Common Stock are then listed or traded. If the 2020 Plan is terminated, as a result of not having been approved by stockholders during such 12-month period, automatic termination on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Board’s adoption of the 2020 Plan or pursuant to any other terms of the 2020 Plan, notwithstanding such termination, all Awards granted prior to such termination shall continue until they are terminated by their respective terms.

Adjustments and Changes in Shares

In the event that there is a stock dividend or stock split, recapitalization (including payment of an extraordinary dividend), merger, consolidation, combination, spin-off, distribution of assets to stockholders, exchange of shares of Common Stock, or other similar corporate change affecting the shares of Common Stock, the Board shall appropriately adjust the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock underlying stock options and RSUs) available for Awards under the 2020 Plan or subject to outstanding Awards, and any other factors, limits or terms affecting any outstanding or subsequently issuable Awards as may be appropriate.

Transferability of Awards

Except as otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, no Award may be assigned, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the person to whom they are granted, either

TABLE OF CONTENTS

voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the life of the awardee, shall be exercisable only by such awardee.

Types of Awards

Under the 2020 Plan, the Compensation Committee is authorized to grant shares of restricted Common Stock, RSUs and non-qualified stock options.

Restricted Stock Awards and RSUs

Restricted stock is an award of shares of our Common Stock that vests in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement entered into by the Company and each participant. Until the applicable restrictions (as the Compensation Committee may specify) lapse, such shares are subject to forfeiture and may not be sold or otherwise disposed of by the participant who holds them. After all conditions and restrictions applicable to such shares of restricted stock have been satisfied or lapse, such shares shall become freely transferable by such participant.

RSUs confer the right of a holder to receive shares of Common Stock at a future date and are denominated in units. No shares of stock actually are issued to the recipient of an RSU on the grant date. Instead, when an RSU award vests, it is settled by a delivery of shares of Common Stock.

Each restricted stock award or RSU is evidenced by an award agreement specifying the number of shares or RSUs, as applicable, the vesting schedule, the vesting conditions, and the other terms of the restricted stock award or RSU. Vesting of restricted stock awards and RSUs may be based on continued employment or service and/or satisfaction of performance goals or other conditions established by the Compensation Committee. Unless set forth in the award agreement, a recipient of restricted stock will have the rights of a stockholder during the restriction period, including the right to receive any dividends, which may be subject to the same restrictions as the restricted stock. A recipient of RSUs will have none of the rights of a stockholder unless and until shares of Common Stock are actually delivered to such participant. Upon termination of employment or a period of service, upon a Change of Control, or upon failure to satisfy other vesting conditions, a participant’s unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested RSUs may be forfeited or accelerated, as applicable, as provided in such participant’s award agreement, as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. “Change in Control” shall mean a merger or consolidation in which securities constituting more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons who do not own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities immediately prior to such transaction, or the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to a non-affiliate of the Company.

Stock Options

A stock option is the right to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock in the future at a specified exercise price and subject to the other terms and conditions specified in the option agreement and the 2020 Plan. Stock options may only be granted in the form of non-qualified stock options. The Compensation Committee sets the exercise price of each stock option, which cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of our Common Stock at the time of grant. The exercise price of any stock options may be paid in cash, check, shares of Common Stock already owned by the option holder, delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker or the participant to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price of such stock option and any required tax withholding, delivery of a notice of “net-exercise”, as described in the 2020 Plan, any other method the Compensation Committee approves that complies with applicable law, or any combination of these methods. Stock options are evidenced by an option agreement specifying the exercise price, the vesting schedule, the number of shares of Common Stock granted, and the other terms of the stock option. Stock options expire at the time set forth in a participant’s stock option agreement.

New Plan Benefits

The following table shows the number of Awards made under the 2020 Plan, including Awards that were made as of July 27, 2020, to each named executive officer, all current executive officers as a group, all current non-employee directors as a group and all employees, including all officers who are not executive officers, as a group:

The market value of the securities underlying such RSUs is based on the closing price of the Common Stock of $2.26 per share on July 24, 2020.

(2)

See the description of such RSUs above under “Restricted Stock Awards and RSUs.” The RSUs were granted as compensation for such person’s service as an executive officer, director or other employee of the Company, as applicable, pursuant to the 2020 Plan and are scheduled to vest on the first, second, and third anniversaries of August 15, 2020, so long as such executive officers, directors and other employees remain in service of the Company on each such anniversary. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock under the 2020 Plan.

Federal Tax Aspects

The following summary is a brief discussion of certain federal income tax consequences to U.S. taxpayers and to the Company of stock options, RSUs and restricted stock awards granted under the 2020 Plan. This summary is not intended to be a complete discussion of all the federal income tax consequences of the 2020 Plan or of all the requirements that must be met in order to qualify for the tax treatment described below. The following summary is based upon the provisions of U.S. federal tax law in effect on the date hereof, which is subject to change (perhaps with retroactive effect) and does not constitute tax advice. In addition, because tax consequences may vary, and certain exceptions to the general rules discussed in this summary may be applicable, depending upon the personal circumstances of individual recipients and each recipient should consider its, his or her personal situation and consult with its, his or her own tax advisor with respect to the specific tax consequences applicable to it, him or her. The following assumes stock options have been granted at an exercise price per share at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.

Tax consequences of non-qualified stock options. In general, an employee, director or consultant will not recognize income at the time of the grant of nonqualified options under the 2020 Plan. When an optionee exercises a non-qualified stock option, he or she generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

excess, if any, of the fair market value (determined on the day of exercise) of the shares of the Common Stock received over the option exercise price. The tax basis of such shares to the optionee will be equal to the exercise price paid plus the amount of ordinary income includible in his or her gross income at the time of the exercise. Upon a subsequent sale or exchange of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a non-qualified stock option, the optionee will have taxable capital gain or loss, measured by the difference between the amount realized on the sale or exchange and the tax basis of the shares of Common Stock. The capital gain or loss will be short-term or long-term depending on holding period of the shares of Common Stock sold.

Tax consequences of restricted stock awards. In general, the recipient of a stock award that is not subject to restrictions will recognize ordinary income at the time the shares of Common Stock are received equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock received over the amount, if any, the recipient paid in exchange for the shares of Common Stock. If, however, the shares of Common Stock are subject to vesting or other restrictions (that is, they are non-transferable and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture) when the shares of Common Stock are granted (for example, if the employee is required to work for a period of time in order to have the right to sell the stock), the recipient generally will not recognize income until the shares of Common Stock becomes vested or the restrictions otherwise lapse, at which time the recipient will recognize ordinary income equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of vesting (or the date of the lapse of a restriction) less the amount, if any, the recipient paid in exchange for the shares of Common Stock. If the shares of Common Stock are forfeited under the terms of the restricted stock award, the recipient will not recognize income and will not be allowed an income tax deduction with respect to the forfeiture.

A recipient may file an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days of his or her receipt of a restricted stock award to recognize ordinary income, as of the award date, equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the award date less the amount, if any, the recipient paid in exchange for the shares of Common Stock. If a recipient makes a Section 83(b) election, then the recipient will not otherwise be taxed in the year the vesting or restriction lapses, and, if the stock award is forfeited, he or she will not be allowed an income tax deduction. If the recipient does not make a Section 83(b) election, dividends paid to the recipient on the shares of Common Stock prior to the date the vesting or restrictions lapse will be treated as compensation income.

The recipient’s tax basis for the determination of gain or loss upon the subsequent disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired as stock awards will be the amount paid for such shares plus the amount includible in his or her gross income as compensation in respect of such shares.

Withholding and other consequences. Any compensation includible in the gross income of a recipient will be subject to appropriate federal and state income tax withholding.

Tax effect for the Company. We are generally entitled to an income tax deduction in connection with a stock option or restricted stock award granted under the 2020 Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a recipient at the time the recipient recognizes such income (for example, the exercise of a non-qualified stock option). Special rules may limit the deductibility of compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and to each of our four most highly compensated executive officers under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent that annual compensation paid to any of the foregoing individuals exceeds $1,000,000.

THE FOREGOING IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE EFFECT OF FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION UPON PARTICIPANTS AND THE COMPANY WITH RESPECT TO THE GRANT AND EXERCISE OF STOCK OPTIONS, RSUs AND RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS UNDER THE 2020 PLAN. IT DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE COMPLETE AND DOES NOT DISCUSS THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF A RECIPIENT’S DEATH OR THE PROVISIONS OF THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH THE RECIPIENT MAY RESIDE. THE FOREGOING SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE USED, AND IT CANNOT BE USED BY ANY TAXPAYER, TO AVOID PENALTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON THE TAXPAYER.

APPENDIX A

Summit Wireless Technologies, Inc.

2020 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

PURPOSE

The purpose of the Summit Wireless Technologies, Inc. 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote the interests of Summit Wireless Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its stockholders by allowing the Company to attract and retain senior managers, employees, directors, consultants, professionals and service providers during this period of unprecedented uncertainty and volatility in the COVID-19 environment who provide services to the Company, provided that such services are bona fide services that are not of a capital-raising nature (“Eligible Persons”). The Plan is expected to contribute to the attainment of these objectives by enabling the Company to pay Eligible Persons utilizing shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Shares”) in addition to cash and to grant to such Eligible Persons Shares which are restricted as provided in Section 6 of this Plan (“Restricted Stock”). In addition, the Plan is expected to contribute to the attainment of these objectives by providing for the grants to Eligible Persons of (i) the right to receive Shares at a specific future time (“Restricted Stock Units”) and (ii) stock options (“Options”), which Options may be exercised for Shares.

ADMINISTRATION

The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee”), unless the Company does not have a Compensation Committee, in which case the Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall be authorized to interpret the Plan; to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan; and to make all determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The determinations of the Committee in the administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall be final and conclusive. Each of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Secretary of the Company shall be authorized to implement the Plan in accordance with its terms and to take such actions of a ministerial nature as shall be necessary to effectuate the intent and purposes of the Plan. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

ELIGIBILITY

The class of individuals eligible to receive Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Options (the “Awards”) under the Plan shall be persons who are Eligible Persons (as defined above). Any holder of an Award granted under the Plan shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Participant,” an “Awardee,” or collectively as “Participants” or “Awardees.”

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

(a)

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 hereof, the maximum number of Shares (including Shares underlying Options) that may be delivered to Participants under the Plan shall be limited to 650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Shares to be delivered under the Plan may consist of either Shares authorized and reserved for the Plan or Shares subsequently acquired by the Company as treasury Shares, including Shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions.

(b)

In the event that, prior to the date the Plan shall terminate in accordance with Section 8 hereof, any Award granted under the Plan expires unexercised or unvested or is terminated, surrendered or cancelled without the delivery of Shares, or any Restricted Shares are forfeited back to the Company, then the Shares subject to such Award may be made available for subsequent Awards under the terms of the Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GRANT, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

(a) In General. The Committee may grant Awards in the form of Options. Every Option shall be evidenced by an Option agreement in such form as the Committee shall approve from time to time, specifying the number of Shares that may be purchased pursuant to the Option, the time or times at which the Option shall become exercisable in whole or in part and such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall approve, and containing or incorporating by reference the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5. No Incentive Stock Options (as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code) shall be awarded under the Plan. All Options awarded under the Plan will be considered non-qualified stock options.

(b) Duration. The duration of each Option shall be as specified by the Committee.

(c) Exercise Price. The exercise price of each Option shall be any lawful consideration, as specified by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that the exercise price shall be at least 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date on which the Committee awards the Option, which shall be considered the date of grant of the Option for purposes of fixing the price.

For purposes of the Plan and except as may be otherwise explicitly provided in the Plan or in any Award agreement, the Fair Market Value of a Share at any particular date shall be determined according to the following rules:

(i) If the Shares are not at the time listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) or any of the OTC Markets (“OTC Markets”), then Fair Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the Board, which may take into consideration (1) the price paid for the Shares in the most recent trade of a substantial number of shares known to the Board to have occurred at arm’s length between willing and knowledgeable investors, (2) an appraisal by an independent party or (3) any other method of valuation undertaken in good faith by the Board, or some or all of the above as the Board shall in its discretion elect;

(ii) If the Shares are at the time listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or NASDAQ, then Fair Market Value shall mean the Closing Price for the Shares on such date. The “Closing Price” on any date shall mean the last sale price for the Shares, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on that day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, for the Shares, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the national securities exchange or Nasdaq; or

(iii) If the Shares are at the time traded in the OTC Markets, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, for the Shares, in either case as reported in the OTC Markets with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading in the OTC Markets.

(d) Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised by delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise in a form, which may be electronic, approved by the Committee, together with payment in full in the manner specified in Section 5(e) of the exercise price for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised. Shares subject to the Option will be delivered by the Company as soon as practicable following exercise and payment of the exercise price. If the Participant fails to pay for or to accept delivery of all or any part of the number of shares specified in the notice upon tender of delivery thereof, the right to exercise the Option with respect to those shares shall be terminated, unless the Committee otherwise agrees.

(e) Payment Upon Exercise. Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under the Plan shall be paid for as follows:

In cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;

By payment in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company, of the par value of the Shares to be acquired and by payment of the balance of the exercise price in whole or in part by delivery of the Participant’s recourse promissory note, in a form specified by the Committee and to the extent consistent with applicable law, secured by the Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option and such other security as the Committee may require;

Except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Committee, in its sole discretion, by (1) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker

TABLE OF CONTENTS

to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding or (2) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding;

By delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Shares owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value, provided (1) the method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (2) the Shares, if acquired directly from the Company, was owned by the Participant for a minimum period of time, if any, as may be established by the Committee in its sole discretion, and (3) the Shares are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements;

By delivery of a notice of “net exercise” to the Company, as a result of which the Participant would receive (1) the number of shares underlying the portion of the Option being exercised less (2) such number of shares as is equal to (A) the aggregate exercise price for the portion of the Option being exercised divided by (B) the value of the Shares on the date of exercise and, at the election of the Participant, less (3) such number of shares as is equal in value to the withholding obligation (if any) provided in Section 10(e);

To the extent permitted by applicable law and provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Committee in its sole discretion, by payment of such other lawful consideration as the Committee may determine; or

By any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.

(f) Vesting. An Option may be exercised so long as it is vested and outstanding from time to time, in whole or in part, in the manner and subject to the conditions that the Committee in its discretion may provide in the Option agreement.

(g) Effect of Cessation of Employment or Service Relationship. The Committee shall determine in its discretion and specify in each Option agreement the effect, if any, of the termination of the Participant’s employment or other service relationship upon the exercisability of the Option.

(h) Transferability of Options. An Option shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During the life of the Participant, an Option shall be exercisable only by him, by a conservator or guardian duly appointed for him by reason of his incapacity or by the person appointed by the Participant in a durable power of attorney acceptable to the Company’s counsel. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 5(h), the Committee may in its discretion permit the Participant to transfer an Option to a member of the Immediate Family (as defined below) of the Participant, to a trust solely for the benefit of the Participant and the Participant’s Immediate Family or to a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or members are the Participant and members of the Participant’s Immediate Family. “Immediate Family” shall mean, with respect to any Participant, the Participant’s child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, and shall include adoptive relationships.

(i) No Rights as Stockholder. A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by an Option until becoming the record holder of the Shares. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is earlier than the date the certificate is issued, other than as required or permitted pursuant to Section 7.

6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

(a) Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may grant Awards in the form of shares of Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units (collectively, referred to as “Stock Awards”). Restrictions on Restricted Stock may include the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of the shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price (or to require forfeiture of the Shares if issued at no cost) from the Participant in the event that conditions specified by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Committee for the Stock Award.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(b) Form of Payment. Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in Shares.

(c) Procedures Relating to Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock agreement or Restricted Stock Unit agreement shall evidence the applicable Award and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Committee shall provide.

A holder of a Stock Award without restrictions or Restricted Stock shall, subject to the terms of any applicable agreement, have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the Shares and (except as provided below) the right to receive any dividends. Certificates representing Restricted Stock shall be imprinted with a legend to the effect that the Shares represented may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement. (If shares of Restricted Stock are held in book entry form, statements evidencing those shares shall include a similar legend.) The Participant shall be required to deposit any stock certificates with an escrow agent designated by the Committee, together with a stock power or other instrument of transfer appropriately endorsed in blank. With respect to such Shares, the Committee shall provide that dividends will not be paid with respect to unvested Restricted Stock until the time (if at all) the Restricted Stock vests, and the Company will retain such dividends and pay them to the Participant upon vesting.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, Restricted Stock shall become freely transferable by the Participant after all conditions and restrictions applicable to the Shares have been satisfied or lapse (including satisfaction of any applicable tax withholding obligations).

(d) Additional Matters Relating to Restricted Stock Units.

(i) Each grant of Restricted Stock Units shall constitute the agreement by the Company to issue or transfer Shares to the Participant in the future in consideration of the performance of services, subject to the fulfillment during the period established by the Committee and set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit agreement (the “Deferral Period”) of such conditions as the Committee may specify.

(ii) Each grant of Restricted Stock Units may be made without additional consideration from the Participant or in consideration of a payment by the Participant that is less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

(iii) Each grant shall provide that the Restricted Stock Units covered thereby shall be subject to a Deferral Period, which shall be fixed by the Committee on the date of grant, and any grant or sale may provide for the earlier termination of such Deferral Period in the event of a Change in Control of the Company or other similar transaction or event. For the purposes of this Plan, “Change in Control” shall mean a merger or consolidation in which securities constituting more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons that do not own more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s securities immediately prior to such transaction, or the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to a non-affiliate of the Company.

(iv) During the Deferral Period, the Participant shall not have any right to transfer any rights under the subject Award, shall not have any rights of ownership in the Shares issuable pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units and shall not have any right to vote such Shares, but the Committee may on or after the date of grant, authorize the payment of dividend or other distribution equivalents on such Shares in cash or additional Shares on a current, deferred or contingent basis.

(v) Each grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an agreement delivered to and accepted by the Participant and containing such terms and provisions as the Committee may determine consistent with this Plan.

(vi) Each agreement underlying a Stock Award shall set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to retain the Award following termination of the Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company and the rights, if any, of the Participant upon a Change in Control, which may include, among other things, the acceleration of vesting of a Stock Award. Whether any such right shall apply to a particular Award shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ADJUSTMENT AND CHANGES IN SHARES

If, after the Effective Date (as defined below), there is a stock dividend or stock split, recapitalization (including payment of an extraordinary dividend), merger, consolidation, combination, spin-off, distribution of assets to stockholders, exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change affecting the Shares, the Board shall appropriately adjust the aggregate number of Shares (including Shares underlying Options) available for Awards under the Plan or subject to outstanding Awards, and any other factors, limits or terms affecting any outstanding or subsequently issuable Awards as may be appropriate.

EFFECTIVE DATE, DURATION OF PLAN AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Plan shall become effective on the date of the adoption of the Plan by the Board (the “Effective Date”). The Plan shall automatically terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Plan’s Effective Date. The Board may terminate, suspend or amend the Plan at any time without stockholder approval except to the extent that stockholder approval is required to satisfy applicable requirements imposed by (a) Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any successor rule or regulation; or (b) the rules of any exchange on or through which the Shares are then listed or traded. For the avoidance of doubt, this Plan shall be effective upon adoption by the Board, and shall be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for approval within twelve (12) months after adopted by Board. In the event that the stockholders of the Company shall not approve this Plan within such twelve (12) month period, this Plan shall terminate. If the Plan is terminated, as a result of not having been approved by stockholders during such 12-month period, automatic termination on the tenth (10) anniversary as provided in this Section 8 or pursuant to any other terms of the Plan, notwithstanding such termination, all Awards granted prior to such termination shall continue until they are terminated by their terms.

APPLICABLE LAW AND REGISTRATION

The grant of Awards and the issuance of Shares (including Restricted Stock, Shares underlying Options, upon their exercise, and Shares issued in connection with Restricted Stock Units) shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals of any governmental agencies or securities exchanges as may be required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Shares, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Options shall be issued under the Plan unless the Company is satisfied that such issuance will be in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Shares issued under the Plan may be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Board may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any exchange on or through which the Shares are then listed or traded, or any applicable federal or state securities law. The Board may cause a legend or legends to be placed on any stock certificates issued under the Plan to make appropriate reference to restrictions within the scope of this Section 9 or other provisions of the Plan. To the extent not preempted by Federal law, the Plan and all agreements hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Transferability of Awards. Except as otherwise provided herein, Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the person to whom they are granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the life of the Participant, shall be exercisable only by the Participant.

(b) Documentation. Each Award shall be evidenced in such form (written, electronic or otherwise) as the Committee shall determine. Each Award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan.

(c) No Guarantee of Employment or Continuation of Service Relationship. Neither the Plan nor any Award agreement shall give an employee or other service provider the right to continue in the employment of or to continue to provide services to the Company or a subsidiary, or give the Company or a subsidiary the right to require continued employment or services.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(d) Rounding Conventions. The Committee may, in its sole discretion and taking into account any requirements of the Code, including without limitations Sections 422 through 424 and 409A of the Code, determine the effect of vesting, stock dividend, and any other adjustments on shares and any cash amount payable hereunder, and may provide that no fractional shares will be issued (rounding up or down as determined by the Committee) and that cash amounts be rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

(e) Tax Withholding. To the extent required by law, the Company (or a subsidiary) shall withhold or cause to be withheld income and other taxes with respect to any income recognized by a Participant by reason of the exercise, vesting or settlement of an Award, and as a condition to the receipt of any Award the Participant shall agree that if the amount payable to him or her by the Company and any subsidiary in the ordinary course is insufficient to pay such taxes, then he or she shall upon the request of the Company pay to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy its tax withholding obligations.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may in its discretion permit any Participant’s withholding obligation to be paid in whole or in part in the form of Shares by withholding from the Shares to be issued or by accepting delivery from the Participant of Shares already owned by him or her. If payment of withholding taxes is made in whole or in part in Shares, the Participant shall deliver to the Company certificates registered in his or her name representing Shares legally and beneficially owned by him or her, fully vested and free of all liens, claims, and encumbrances of every kind, duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed by the record holder of the shares represented by such certificates.

If the Participant is subject to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, his or her ability to pay any withholding obligation in the form of Shares shall be subject to any additional restrictions as may be necessary to avoid any transaction that might give rise to liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

(f) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds from the sale of Shares pursuant to Awards shall constitute general funds of the Company.

(g) Awards to Non-United States Persons. Awards may be made to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as the Committee considers necessary or advisable to achieve the purposes of the Plan or to comply with applicable laws. The Board shall have the right to amend the Plan, consistent with its authority to amend the Plan as set forth in Section 8, to obtain favorable tax treatment for Participants, and any such amendments shall be evidenced by an Appendix to the Plan. The Board may delegate this authority to the Committee.

(h) Governing Law. Compliance with Section 409A. It is the intention of the Company that no payment or entitlement pursuant to this Plan will give rise to any adverse tax consequences to any person pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. The Committee shall interpret and apply the Plan to that end, and shall not give effect to any provision therein in a manner that reasonably could be expected to give rise to adverse tax consequences under Section 409A.
