Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 19, 2021, Summit Wireless Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") entered into letter agreements (the "Inducement Agreements") with holders (the "Holders") of common stock purchase warrants (collectively, the "Original Warrants") previously issued by the Company to the Holders pursuant to (i) a private placement in February 2020 and (ii) settlement agreements and releases, each dated November 9, 2020.

Pursuant to the Inducement Agreements, as an inducement and in consideration for a Holder's exercise of the Original Warrants for some or all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") available thereunder, the Company has agreed to deliver to each such Holder new common stock purchase warrants (the "New Warrants") to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 25% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued to such Holder in connection with its exercise of its Original Warrants. The New Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance at an exercise price of $4.20 per share, which is greater than the closing price of the Common Stock of $4.16 on the Nasdaq Capital Market on January 15, 2021, have an expiration date of January 20, 2026 and are exercisable on a cashless basis if the New Warrant Shares have not been registered by the Company on a registration statement on or before 6 months after the date of issuance and there is no currently effective registration statement covering the New Warrants at the time of exercise. Pursuant to the Inducement Agreements, Holders have agreed to exercise Original Warrants for an aggregate of 118,048 shares of Common Stock resulting in approximate gross proceeds to the Company of $301,022, and the Holders will receive New Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of up to 29,512 shares of Common Stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Inducement Agreements and the New Warrants, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement on or before March 20, 2021 to register the shares of Common Stock underlying the New Warrants for resale and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective on or before July 18, 2021.

The Inducement Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, and covenants by the Company and each of the Holders. In addition, pursuant to the Inducement Agreements, the Company has agreed that neither it nor any of its subsidiaries will issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock, or file any registration statement, or amendment or supplement thereto, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") within fifteen (15) trading days of the date of the Inducement Agreements, subject to certain limited exceptions provided in the Inducement Agreements.

The Company intends to use the proceeds of any exercise of Original Warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The foregoing descriptions of the Inducement Agreements and the New Warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such Inducement Agreements and New Warrants, the forms of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and which are incorporated herein in their entirety by reference.
