Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 12, 2023, WiSA Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), consummated its previously reported offering with certain
institutional investors, in which the Company issued and sold to such investors
(i) in a registered direct offering, 743,066 shares (the "Shares") of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company and (ii)
in a concurrent private placement, common stock purchase warrants (the "Private
Placement Warrants"), exercisable for an aggregate of up to 1,486,132 shares of
Common Stock, at an exercise price of $1.41 per share of Common Stock pursuant
to that certain securities purchase agreement, dated April 7, 2023 (the
"Purchase Agreement"), among the Company and such institutional investors.
The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.2 million
before deducting fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. In the
event that all Private Placement Warrants are exercised for cash, the Company
would receive additional aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.1 million.
The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to
partially or fully repay the outstanding principal amount of a senior secured
convertible note issued to an institutional investor (the "August Investor") on
August 15, 2022, as amended (the "Convertible Note"), and to use the remainder
of the net proceeds for working capital, capital expenditures, product
development, and other general corporate purposes, including investments in
sales and marketing in the United States and internationally. The Company has
not allocated specific amounts of net proceeds for any of these purposes;
however, the Company is required pursuant to the terms of that certain
securities purchase agreement, dated August 15, 2022, by and between the Company
and the August Investor, to direct at least 20% of the gross proceeds of the
offering to repay a portion of the Convertible Note.
The securities issued in the registered direct offering were offered pursuant to
the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File 333-267211) (the
"Shelf Registration Statement"), initially filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), on September 1, 2022 and declared effective
on September 13, 2022.
The Private Placement Warrants (and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) were not registered under the
Securities Act, and were offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities
Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The Private Placement Warrants are
immediately exercisable upon issuance, will expire five years from the date of
issuance, and in certain circumstances may be exercised on a cashless basis.
The Company previously filed the form of Purchase Agreement as Exhibit 10.1 to
the Form 8-K filed on April 7, 2023. The Company has filed an amended form of
Purchase Agreement correcting certain typographical errors as Exhibit 10.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Form 8-K"). The foregoing does not
purport to be a complete description of each of the Private Placement Warrants
and Purchase Agreement, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of each of such document, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1,
respectively, to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Sullivan & Worcester LLP, counsel to the Company, delivered an opinion as to the
validity of the Shares, a copy of which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit
5.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.04. Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial
Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
The applicable information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K with respect
to the use of proceeds of the offering is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The applicable information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K with respect
to the issuance of Private Placement Warrants is incorporated herein by

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe
harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that
express the Company's intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions
or any other statements related to the Company's future activities, or future
events or conditions, which can be identified by terminology such as "may,"
"will," "expects," "anticipates," "aims," "potential," "future," "intends,"
"plans," "believes," "estimates," "continue," "likely to" and other similar
expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all
forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements are
not historical facts and are based on current expectations, estimates and
projections about the Company's business based, in part, on assumptions made by
its management, including, without limitation, the Company's intended use of
proceeds upon consummation of the offering. These statements are not guarantees
of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are
difficult to predict, many of which are beyond the Company's control, including,
among other things, general market conditions and the economic environment, and
those risks that may be included in the periodic reports and other filings that
the Company files from time to time with the SEC, which may cause the Company's
actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company undertakes no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K, except as required by applicable
law.
