Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Underwriting Agreement
On August 16,
2023, Asure Software, Inc. (“we,” “us” and “our” ) entered into an underwriting agreement
(the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Craig-Hallum Capital
Group LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to
a firm commitment offering of 3,333,333 newly issued shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $12.00 per
share. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, we granted the Underwriters a 30-day over-allotment option to purchase up to
an additional 500,000 newly issued shares of common stock from us. The closing of the offering is expected to take place
on August 21, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.
We estimate that the net
proceeds to us from the sale of 3,333,333 shares of common stock, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately $37.4 million. If the
Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional shares in full, the net proceeds to us from the offering
will be approximately $43.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and
commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
We currently intend to use
the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes. We may
use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to (i) acquire or invest in complementary businesses, assets or technologies,
although we have not entered into any definitive agreement with respect to any specific acquisitions or investments at this time and (ii) repay
our outstanding indebtedness to Structural Capital Partners II under our Loan and Security Agreement, dated September 10, 2021, as
amended, with Structural Capital Investments III, LP (“Structural” and together with the other lenders that are or become
parties thereto, the “Lenders”), and Ocean II PLO LLC, as administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders (the “Loan
and Security Agreement”), although we have not made any decision as to whether to repay such indebtedness at this time.
The shares of common stock
being sold by us have been registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (File No. 333-254138), which the Securities
and Exchange Commission declared effective on April 21, 2021.
The Underwriting
Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnification obligations, including for
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the
Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the
parties to such agreement (and express third party beneficiaries), and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting
parties.
The foregoing
description of the Underwriting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the legal
opinion of Cozen O’Connor related to the shares of common stock that may be sold under the registration statement in the
offering is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Public Offering
On August 16, 2023, we
issued a press release announcing that we commenced the offering and a press release announcing the
pricing of the offering. Copies of these press releases are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto, respectively.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Asure Software, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule I hereto
(the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), an aggregate of 3,333,333
shares (the “Firm Shares”) of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”). The
Company also proposes to sell to the several Underwriters, for the sole purpose of covering over-allotments in connection with the sale
of the Firm Shares, at the option of the Underwriters, up to an additional 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”).
The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Shares.”
The Company confirms as follows
its agreements with the Representatives and the several other Underwriters.
1. Representations
and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with,
each of the Underwriters that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (as defined herein) and each Option Closing Date (as
defined herein), if any:
(i) Registration
Statement and Prospectuses. The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-254138) covering the public offering and sale of certain securities,
including the Shares, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which shelf registration statement
was declared effective by the Commission on April 21, 2021. Such registration statement, as of any time, means such registration
statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto at such time, and including the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such
time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3
under the Securities Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B (“Rule 430B”)
of the rules and regulations of the Commission (“Rules and Regulations”) under the Securities Act, is referred
to herein as the “Registration Statement”; provided, however, that the “Registration Statement” without reference
to a time means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto as of the time of the first contract
of sale for the Shares, which time shall be considered the “new effective date” of such registration statement with respect
to the Shares within the meaning of paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 430B, including the exhibits and schedules thereto as of such
time, the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under
the Securities Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B. Each preliminary
prospectus (which shall be comprised of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement, at the time the Registration Statement
first became effective, and a preliminary prospectus supplement thereto) used in connection with the offering of the Shares, including
the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities
Act, are collectively referred to herein as a “Preliminary Prospectus.” Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Company will prepare and file a final prospectus relating to the Shares in accordance with the provisions of Rule 424(b) under
the Rules and Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”). The final prospectus (which shall be comprised of the prospectus forming
a part of the Registration Statement, at the time the Registration Statement first became effective, and a final prospectus supplement
thereto), in the form first furnished or made available to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Shares, including
the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities
Act, are collectively referred to herein as the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration
Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include
the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system)
(“EDGAR”).
As used in this Agreement:
“Applicable Time”
means 6:45 P.M. (Eastern time) on the date of this Agreement or such other time as agreed by the Company and the
Representatives;
“Testing-the-Waters Communication”
means any oral or written communication with potential investors undertaken in reliance on Rule 163B under the Securities Act;

All references in this Agreement to

or “stated” in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or other references of like import)
shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information that is incorporated by reference
in or otherwise deemed by the Securities Act to be a part of or included in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or
the Prospectus, as the case may be. All references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, any
Preliminary Prospectus, or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the subsequent filing of any document under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and which is deemed to be incorporated by reference therein or otherwise
deemed by the Rules and Regulations to be a part thereof; the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in

only such information provided by any Underwriter is that described as such in Section 9(b) hereof;
(iii) Accurate
Disclosure. The Pricing Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time, complied in all material respects with the requirements of

material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
provided that the preceding sentence shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Pricing Disclosure Package made in reliance

(vii) Incorporation
and Good Standing of the Company. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power and authority (corporate and other) to own, lease and operate its properties and
conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus and to enter into
and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation for the transaction of business
and is in good standing (where such concept exists) under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties,
except where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing would not have or be reasonably likely to result in a material adverse
effect on the assets, liabilities, properties, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations, business affairs or
business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined herein) considered as a whole, or in its ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement (“Material Adverse Effect”);
(viii) Subsidiaries.
Each subsidiary of the Company, which for purposes of this Agreement includes any corporation, partnership, joint venture, association
or other business organization controlled directly or indirectly by the Company listed on Schedule III hereto (each a “Subsidiary”),
has been duly incorporated (or organized) and is validly existing as a corporation (or other organization) in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation (or organization), with power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and
conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, and has been duly
qualified as a foreign corporation (or other organization) for the transaction of business and is in good standing (where such concept
exists) under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such
qualification, except where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing would not have or be reasonably likely to result in a Material
Adverse Effect; all of the issued and outstanding capital stock (or other ownership interests) of each Subsidiary has been duly authorized
and validly issued and in the case of capital stock of each Subsidiary that is a corporation, is fully paid and non-assessable and is
owned by the Company, directly or through a Subsidiary, free and clear of any lien, charge, mortgage, pledge, security interest, claim,
limitation on voting rights, equity, trust or other encumbrance, preferential arrangement, defect or restriction of any kind whatsoever;
and other than the Subsidiaries listed on Schedule III hereto, each corporation, partnership, joint venture, association or other business
organization controlled directly or indirectly by the Company does not: (1) have any material assets, (2) have any material
liabilities or (3) conduct any business activities;
(ix) Capitalization.
The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth in the Registration Statement, Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus,

paid and non-assessable and conform to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, Pricing Disclosure Package and
the Prospectus; and none of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are subject to any preemptive or similar
rights. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, there is no outstanding option,
warrant or other right calling for the issuance of, and there is no commitment, plan or arrangement to issue, any share of capital stock
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such stock. The exercise
price of each option to acquire Common Stock (each, a “Company Stock Option”) is no less than the fair market value of a
share of Common Stock as determined on the date of grant of such Company Stock Option. All grants of Company Stock Options and restricted
stock units were validly issued and duly authorized and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (or committees thereof) in
compliance with all applicable laws and the terms of the plan under which such Company Stock Options and restricted stock units were
issued and were recorded on the Company’s financial statements in accordance with US GAAP (as defined herein), and no such grants
involved any “back dating,” “forward dating,” “spring loading” or similar practices with respect
to the effective date of grant;
(x) Authorization
of Securities. The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, will be validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable and will conform in all material respects
to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; and the issuance
of the Shares is not subject to any preemptive or similar rights that have not been complied with or otherwise effectively waived;
(xi) Authorization
of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company;
(xii) Absence
of Violations, Defaults and Conflicts. The issue and sale of the Shares, the execution of this Agreement by the Company and the compliance
by the Company with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not (i) conflict with or result
in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company
or any of the Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is subject, (ii) result
in any violation of the provisions of the articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organization documents) of the
Company or any of the Subsidiaries or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any
court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or any of their properties, except
in the case of (iii) for such conflicts, breaches or violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate, be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect; and no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such court
or governmental agency or body is required for the issue and sale of the Shares or the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, except for the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance of the Shares, such consents, approvals,
authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required by FINRA, the Nasdaq Capital Market and under state securities or
Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Shares by the Underwriters and those consents that have been previously
obtained and provided to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters;
(xiii) [Reserved]
(xiv) Independent
Accountant. Marcum LLP (the “Auditor”), which has certified certain financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries
and delivered its opinion with respect to the audited financial statements and schedules included in the Registration Statement, the
Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus, is an independent registered public accounting firm as required by the Securities Act
and the Rules and Regulations. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, or the Prospectus
and as preapproved in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 10A of the Exchange Act, the Auditor has not been engaged
by the Company to perform any “prohibited activities” (as defined in Section 10A of the Exchange Act). The financial

the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus, comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and present

prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) consistently
applied throughout the periods involved, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus;
and the summary financial data included in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption
“Summary Consolidated Financial Data,” if any, present fairly the information shown therein and have been compiled on a basis
consistent with that of the financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.
The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, if
any, fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and has been prepared in accordance with the Commission’s
rules and guidelines applicable thereto;
(xv) No
Material Adverse Change. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements
included or incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package any material loss or interference with its business from fire,
explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order
or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Disclosure Package; and, since the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus, (1) there has not been any
change in the capital stock (other than a change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock due to the issuance of shares upon
the exercise of outstanding options, warrants or restricted stock units under the Company’s existing stock awards plan) or any
material change in long-term or short-term debt of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, (2) there has not been any Material Adverse
Effect, (3) there have been no transactions entered into by, and no obligations or liabilities, contingent or otherwise, incurred
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, not in the ordinary course of business, which are material to the Company and its Subsidiaries,
considered as one enterprise or (4) there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company
on any class of its capital stock, in each case, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Disclosure Package;
(xvi) No
Violations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is (1) in violation of its articles or certificate of incorporation
or bylaws (or other organization documents), (2) in violation of any law, ordinance, administrative or governmental rule or
regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (3) in violation of any decree of any court or governmental agency
or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (4) in default in the performance of any obligation,
agreement or condition contained in any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness or in any agreement, indenture, lease
or other instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their respective properties
may be bound, except, in the case of clauses (2), (3) and (4), where any such violation or default, individually or in the aggregate,
would not have a Material Adverse Effect;
(xvii) Title
to Property. The Company and each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to all property (whether real or personal) owned by it,
in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as are described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and
the Prospectus or such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed
to be made of such property by the Company or any Subsidiary; and any real property and buildings held under lease by the Company or
any Subsidiary are held under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases, assuming the compliance with such leases of the counterparties
thereto, with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property
and buildings by the Company or any Subsidiary;
(xviii) No
Material Actions or Proceedings. Other than as set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no legal
or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or of which any property of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries is the subject which, if determined adversely to the Company or the Subsidiary, individually or in the aggregate,
would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or would prevent or impair the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, or which are required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or
the Prospectus; and, to the Company’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities
or by others;
(xix) Licenses
and Permits. The Company and its Subsidiaries possess and are in compliance with all permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other
authorizations (collectively, “Permits”) issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or
bodies necessary to conduct the businesses now operated by them, and all of the Permits are valid and in full force and effect, except,
in each case, where the failure to obtain, possess or be in compliance with such Permits, individually or in the aggregate, would not
have or would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;
(xx) Intellectual
Property. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries owns or possesses legally enforceable rights or licenses to use all patents, patent
rights, inventions, trademarks, trademark applications, trade names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents,
patent rights, copyrights, original works, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade secrets and other intellectual
property rights and all applications and registrations therefor (“Intellectual Property Rights”) necessary to conduct their
respective businesses as now conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. The Company has no knowledge of any infringement by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Intellectual Property Rights of others. There is no material claim, action or proceeding made
or brought, or to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened, against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
regarding the infringement of Intellectual Property Rights. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise
to a claim, action or proceeding regarding the foregoing. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures
to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their Intellectual Property Rights which are materially necessary to conduct
their respective businesses as now conducted or as planned to be conducted. To the Company’s knowledge, none of the technology
employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has been obtained or is being used by the Company or such Subsidiary in violation
of any contractual obligation binding on the Company or such Subsidiary or, to the Company’s knowledge, any of the officers, directors
or employees of the Company or any Subsidiary, or, to the Company’s knowledge, otherwise in violation of the rights of any persons;
(xxi) Material
Contracts. There is no document, contract or other agreement required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing
Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein
that is not described or filed as required by the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations. Each description of a contract,
document or other agreement in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or any document incorporated
therein accurately reflects in all material respects the terms of the underlying contract, document or other agreement. Each contract,
document or other agreement described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or listed in the
exhibits to the Registration Statement or incorporated therein by reference is in full force and effect and is valid and enforceable
by and against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries, if a Subsidiary is a party, nor to the Company’s knowledge, any other party is in default in the observance
or performance of any term or obligation to be performed by it under any such agreement, and no event has occurred that, with notice
or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, which default or event, individually or in the aggregate would be material
to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. No default exists, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time
or both, would constitute a default in the due performance and observance of any term, covenant or condition by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, if a Subsidiary is a party thereto, of any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
is a party or by which the Company or its properties or business or any Subsidiary or its properties or business may be bound or affected
which default or event, individually or in the aggregate, would be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has sent or received any written communication regarding termination of, or intent not to renew,
any of the contracts or agreements referred to or described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus,
or referred to or described in, or filed as an exhibit to, the Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein, and no such
termination or non-renewal has been threatened by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s knowledge, any other
party to any such contract or agreement, except as would not have or reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
(xxii) Absence
of Labor Dispute. No material labor dispute with the employees of the Company or the Subsidiaries exists, or, to the knowledge of
the Company, is imminent; to the knowledge of the Company, there is no existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any
of its or any Subsidiary’s principal suppliers, customers or contractors, which, individually or in the aggregate, would have or
would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
(xxiii) Insurance.
The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and
in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which they are engaged; neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has
been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for; and the Company has no reason to believe that either it or any Subsidiary
will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar
insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect;
(xxiv) Company’s
Accounting System. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have made and keep books, records and accounts, which, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company
maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (1) transactions are executed
in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (2) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (3) access to assets is permitted
only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (4) the recorded accountability for assets is compared
with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences; and (5) the interactive
data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, if any, is in conformity
with U.S. GAAP and is updated as necessary to comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Commission’s
rules and guidelines applicable thereto and present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and changes
in financial position of the Company and the Subsidiaries on the basis stated in the Registration Statement at the respective dates or
for the respective period to which they apply;
(xxv) Financial
Reporting. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement,
the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (1) the Company has not been advised of (a) any significant deficiencies
in the design or operation of internal controls that could adversely affect the ability of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries to
record, process, summarize and report financial data, or any material weaknesses in internal controls or (b) any fraud, whether
or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the internal controls of the Company and
each of its Subsidiaries; and (2) since that date, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting that has materially and adversely affected, or is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus,
there are no material off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K of the Rules and Regulations) that
have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the financial condition, revenues or expenses, changes in
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources of the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole;
(xxvi) Disclosure
Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and
Rule 15d-15 of the Exchange Act) that comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act and that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to
the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding disclosure; such disclosure controls and procedures are effective;
(xxvii) Taxes.
All United States federal income tax returns of the Company and each of the Subsidiaries required by law to be filed have been filed
and all taxes shown by such returns or otherwise assessed, which are due and payable, have been paid, except assessments against which
appeals have been or will be promptly taken and as to which adequate reserves have been provided. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries
have filed all other tax returns that are required to have been filed by them pursuant to applicable foreign, state, local or other law,
except insofar as the failure to file such returns, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in a Material Adverse Effect,
and have paid all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Company or any Subsidiary except for
such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided. The charges, accruals
and reserves on the books of the Company and the Subsidiaries in respect of any income and corporation tax liability for any years not
finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments or re-assessments for additional income tax for any years not finally determined.
The Company is not a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the United States
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and, to the Company’s knowledge, does not expect to become a PFIC for the year ending
December 31, 2023 or any future year;
(xxviii) Compliance
with Environmental Laws. (1) Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with
all rules, laws and regulation relating to the use, treatment, storage and disposal of toxic substances and protection of health or the
environment (“Environmental Laws”) which are applicable to its business; (2) neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries
has received any notice from any governmental authority or third party of an asserted claim under any Environmental Laws; (3) each
of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has received all material permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable
Environmental Laws to conduct its business and is in material compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or
approval; (4) to the Company’s knowledge, no facts currently exist that will require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
to make future material capital expenditures to comply with Environmental Laws; and (5) no property which is or has been owned,
leased or occupied by the Company or its Subsidiaries has (but only to the Company’s knowledge as to leased properties) been designated
as a Superfund site pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation of Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C.
Section 9601, et. seq.) (“CERCLA”) or otherwise designated as a contaminated site under applicable state or local law.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been named as a “potentially responsible party” under CERCLA. The Company
has reasonably concluded that associated costs and liabilities of Environmental Laws applicable to the Company and its Subsidiaries (including,
without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental
Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties)
would not, individually or in the aggregate, be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole;
(xxix) ERISA
Compliance. Each employee benefit plan, within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act

statutes, orders, rules and regulations, including but not limited to ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), except to the extent that failure to so comply, individually or in the aggregate, would not have or would not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No prohibited transaction, within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code has occurred with respect to any such plan excluding transactions effected pursuant to a statutory or administrative exemption,
except as would not have or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, or any director, officer or employee of the foregoing or, to the Company’s
knowledge, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, has (1) taken any action in furtherance
of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization or approval of the payment, giving or receipt of money, property, gifts or anything
else of value, directly or indirectly, to any government official (including any officer or employee of a government or government-owned
or controlled entity or of a public international organization, or any person acting in an official capacity for or on behalf of any
of the foregoing, or any political party or party official or candidate for political office) (“Government Official”) in
order to influence official action, or to any person in violation of any applicable anti-corruption laws; (2) used any corporate

the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Entity”) or any director, officer, employee thereof, or, to
the Entity’s knowledge, any agent, affiliate or representative of the Entity, is an individual or entity
(“Person”) that is, or is owned or controlled by one or more Persons that are, (a) the target of any sanctions

(2) Unless

all material respects as required in connection with, the operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as currently
conducted, free and clear of all material bugs, errors, defects, Trojan horses, time bombs, malware and other corruptants. The Company
and each of its Subsidiaries have implemented and maintained commercially reasonable controls, policies, procedures, and safeguards to
maintain and protect their material confidential information and the integrity, continuous operation, redundancy and security of all

Sale and Delivery of the Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth,
(a) the Company agrees to sell to each of the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase
from the Company, at a purchase price per share of $11.28 (the “Purchase Price”), the number of Firm Shares (to be adjusted
by you so as to eliminate fractional shares) determined by multiplying the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be sold by the Company
hereunder by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter as set forth
opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be
purchased by all of the Underwriters from the Company hereunder and (b) in the event and to the extent that the Underwriters shall
exercise the election to purchase Option Shares as provided below, the Company agrees to sell to each of the Underwriters, and each of
the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at the Purchase Price, the number of Option Shares
(to be adjusted by you so as to eliminate fractional shares) determined by multiplying the number of Option Shares as to which such election
shall have been exercised by the fraction set forth in clause (a) above.
The Company hereby grants
to the Underwriters the right to purchase at their election up to 500,000 Option Shares, at the Purchase Price, for the sole purpose
of covering over-allotments in connection with the sale of the Firm Shares. The Underwriters may exercise their option to acquire Option
Shares in whole or in part from time to time only by written notice from the Representatives to the Company, given within a period of
30 calendar days after the date of this Agreement and setting forth the aggregate number of Option Shares to be purchased and the date
on which such Option Shares are to be delivered, as determined by the Representatives but in no event earlier than the Closing Date or,
unless the Representatives and the Company otherwise agree in writing, earlier than two or later than ten business days after the date

2023, or at such other time not later than seven full business days thereafter as the Representatives and the Company determine, such

all material required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, (ii) of
the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement

Prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or
threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, at any time prior to the later of (A) completion of the distribution of
the Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act and (B) completion of the 90-day restricted period referred to in Section 5(j) hereof.
The Company will promptly effect the filings necessary pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act and will take such

received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus. The Company will make
every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order described in this Section 5(a) and, if any such stop order
is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.
(b) Registration
Statement and Prospectuses. Until the later of (A) completion of the distribution of the Shares within the meaning of the Securities
Act and (B) completion of the 90-day restricted period referred to in Section 5(j) hereof, the Company will give the Representatives

the Representatives with copies of any such documents within a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the
case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably
object.
(c) Blue
Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to qualify the Shares for offering and sale under the securities
laws of such jurisdictions as you may reasonably request and to comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings
therein in such jurisdictions for as long as may be necessary to complete the distribution of the Shares, provided that nothing in this
Section 5(c) shall require the Company to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not already so
qualified, or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction in
which it was not otherwise subject to taxation.
(d) Delivery
of Registration Statement. If requested by the Representatives, the Company will deliver to the Representatives, without charge,
two signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, and each amendment
to each (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein) and signed copies of all consents and certificates
of experts, and will also, upon your request, deliver to the Representatives, without charge, a conformed copy of the Registration Statement

day next succeeding the date of this Agreement (or such later time as may be agreed to by the Company and the Representatives) and from
time to time thereafter during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered in connection with sales of the Shares under
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act,
such number of written and electronic copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented)) as such Underwriter may reasonably request.
The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted
copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.
(f) Continued
Compliance with Securities Laws. The Company will comply with the Securities Act, the Rules and Regulations and the Exchange
Act so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Shares as contemplated in this Agreement and in the Prospectus. If at any
time when, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, a prospectus is required to be delivered in connection with sales of the Shares
under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities
Act), any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters
or for the Company, to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus or to file under the Exchange Act any document
which would be deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus in order that the Prospectus will not include any untrue statements
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of
the circumstances existing at the time it (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act)
is delivered to a purchaser, or if it shall be necessary, in the opinion of either such counsel, at any such time to amend the Registration
Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Rules and Regulations
or the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 5(b), such amendment or
supplement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any document
which would be deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus in order to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act,
and the Company will furnish to the Underwriters such number of written and electronic copies of such amendment or supplement as the
Underwriters may reasonably request. The Company will provide the Representatives with notice of the occurrence of any event during the
period specified above that may give rise to the need to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as provided
in the preceding sentence promptly after the occurrence of such event. If at any time following the distribution of any Written Testing-the-Waters
Communication there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication included
or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly
notify the Representatives and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication to
eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission.
(g) Earnings
Statements. The Company will make generally available (within the meaning of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) to its

of at least twelve consecutive months beginning after the effective date of the Registration Statement.
(h) Use
of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds received by it from the sale of the Shares in the manner specified in the Pricing
Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the heading “Use of Proceeds.”
(i) Listing.
The Company will use its best efforts to list, subject to notice of issuance, the Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
(j) Restriction

written consent of the Representatives, (i) offer, pledge, issue, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to
purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Common Stock; (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be
settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; or (iii) file any registration statement
with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for Common Stock except for any registration statements on Form S-8. The restrictions contained in the preceding
sentence shall not apply to (1) the Shares, (2) the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of options or warrants or
the conversion of outstanding convertible securities disclosed as outstanding in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus,
(3) the issuance of stock options not exercisable during the 90-day restricted period and the grant of restricted stock units
or shares of Common Stock pursuant to equity incentive plans described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and
(4) the issuance of Common Stock in connection with any acquisition consummated by the Company during such 90-day period, provided that in the case of clause
(3) and clause (4), (A) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that the Company may sell or issue or agree to sell
or issue in such 90-day period does not exceed 5% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following
the completion of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and (B) each recipient of such securities shall execute and deliver to the Representatives, on
or prior to the issuance of such securities, a lock-up agreement substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit A
hereto.
(k) Reporting
Requirements. The Company, during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered in connection with sales of the Shares
under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities
Act), will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act within the time periods required
by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
(l) Annual
and Quarterly Reports. The Company will file with the Commission such information on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K as may be required
pursuant to Rule 463 under the Securities Act.

to the reporting requirements of either Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will furnish to you copies of
all reports or other communications (financial or other) furnished to stockholders generally, and deliver to you as soon as they are
available, copies of any reports and financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission or any national securities exchange
on which any class of securities of the Company is listed; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide documents
(i) that are available through EDGAR or (ii) the provision of which would require public disclosure by the Company under Regulation
FD.
(n) Electronic
Prospectus. If so requested by the Representatives, the Company shall cause to be prepared and delivered, at its expense, within
one business day from the effective date of this Agreement (or such later time as may be agreed to by the Company and the Representatives),
to the Representatives an “electronic Prospectus” to be used by the Underwriters in connection with the offering and sale
of the Shares. As used herein, the term “electronic Prospectus” means a form of the most recent Preliminary Prospectus, any
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, that meets each of the following conditions:
(i) it shall be encoded in an electronic format, satisfactory to the Representatives, that may be transmitted electronically by
the Representatives and the other Underwriters to offerees and purchasers of the Shares, (ii) it shall disclose the same information
as such paper Preliminary Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, and (iii) it shall
be in or convertible into a paper format or an electronic format, satisfactory to the Representatives, that will allow investors to store
and have continuously ready access to such Preliminary Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus at any future
time, without charge to investors (other than any fee charged for subscription to the Internet generally). The Company hereby confirms
that, if so requested by the Representatives, it has included or will include in the Prospectus filed with the Commission an undertaking
that, upon receipt of a request by an investor or his or her representative, the Company shall transmit or cause to be transmitted promptly,
without charge, a paper copy of such paper Preliminary Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus to such investor
or representative.
6. Free

(a) The
Company represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating
to the Shares that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; each
Underwriter represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, it has not made and will not
make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute a free writing prospectus; any such free writing prospectus the use of which
has been consented to by the Company and the Representatives is listed on Schedule II hereto;
(b) The
Company has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act applicable to any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending; the Company represents that it has
satisfied and agrees that it will satisfy the conditions under Rule 433 under the Securities Act to avoid a requirement to file
with the Commission any electronic road show;
(c) The
Company agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of
which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package
or the Prospectus, or when taken together with the information in the Pricing Disclosure Package and other Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses,
would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to the Representatives and,
if requested by the Representatives, will prepare and furnish without charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or
other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, that this covenant shall not apply to any
statements or omissions in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in strict conformity with information furnished
in writing to the Company by an Underwriter through the Representatives in their capacities as such expressly for use therein.
7. Payment
of Expenses. The Company covenants and agrees with the several Underwriters that, whether
or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all expenses incident

the Company’s (but not Underwriters’) counsel, accountants and other advisors; (ii) filing fees and all other expenses
in connection with the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus and the Prospectus and amendments and supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriters
and dealers; (iii) the cost of printing or producing this Agreement, closing documents (including any compilations thereof) and
such other documents as may be required in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Shares; (iv) all expenses

Market; (vi) the filing fees incident to, and the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with,
securing any required review by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the Shares; (vii) all fees and expenses in connection with the
preparation, issuance and delivery of the certificates representing the Shares to the Underwriters, if any, including any stock or other
transfer taxes and any stamp or other duties payable upon the sale, issuance or delivery of the Shares to the Underwriters; (viii) the
cost and charges of any transfer agent or registrar; (ix) the transportation and other expenses incurred by the Company in connection
with presentations to prospective purchasers of Shares (not including the Underwriters and their representatives), including any costs

any road show slides, graphics or videos); and (x) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the Company’s
obligations hereunder which are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Section 7. It is understood that, subject to this
Section 7 and Sections 9 and 12, the Underwriters will pay all of their costs and expenses associated with the transactions contemplated
hereunder, including fees and disbursements of their counsel.
8. Conditions
of the Obligations of the Underwriters. The several obligations of the Underwriters
hereunder to purchase the Shares on the Closing Date or each Option Closing Date, as the case may be, are subject to the performance
by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

time period prescribed for such filing by the Rules and Regulations and in accordance with Section 5(a); all material required

shall have been initiated or threatened by the Commission; and all requests for additional information on the part of the Commission
shall have been complied with to your reasonable satisfaction.
(b) The
representations and warranties of the Company contained herein are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing
Date, as the case may be, as if made on and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, and the Company shall
have complied with all agreements and all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date
or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be.
(c) Subsequent
to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, there shall
not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of (i) any downgrading, (ii) any intended or potential
downgrading or (iii) any review or possible change that does not indicate an improvement, in the rating accorded any securities
of or guaranteed by the Company or any Subsidiary by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as such
term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act.
(d) (i) The
Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall not have sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included
or incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus any material loss or interference with its business
from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental

awards plan) or material changes in long-term or short-term debt of the Company or any Subsidiary or (2) there shall not have been
any material adverse change, or any development that would reasonably be expected to result in a prospective material adverse change,
in or affecting the general affairs, business, prospects, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations
of the Company and the Subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise, other than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Disclosure
Package and the Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (i) or (ii), is in the judgment of the Representatives
so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Shares
being delivered at such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Pricing
Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.
(e) The

agreements and conditions of the Company) and 8(c), (2) that none of the situations set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of
Section 8(d) shall have occurred and (3) that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
has been issued and to the knowledge of the Company, no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated
by the Commission;
(f) On
the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, Cozen O’Connor P.C., counsel for the Company, shall have furnished

(g) On
the date of this Agreement, the Auditor shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter, dated the date of delivery thereof, in

the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Representatives shall have received from the Auditor a letter, dated
the Closing Date or such Option Closing Date, as the case may be, to the effect that they reaffirm the statements made in the letter
or letters furnished pursuant to Section 8(g), except that the specified date referred to shall be a date not more than three business
days prior to the Closing Date or such Option Closing Date, as the case may be.
(i) On
the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, shall
have furnished to the Representatives their favorable opinion dated the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be,
with respect to such matters as the Representatives may reasonably request, and such counsel shall have received such papers and information
as they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.
(j) [Reserved]
(k) On
the date of this Agreement and on the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Representatives shall have received
a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, satisfactory to the Representatives, certifying such matters as the Representatives
may reasonably request.
(l) The
Shares to be delivered on the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, shall have been approved for listing on the Nasdaq

(m) FINRA

conditions.
(n) The

person listed on Schedule V to this Agreement, and such agreements shall be in full force and effect on the Closing Date or Option Closing
Date, as the case may be.
(o) On
or prior to the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such
further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives shall reasonably request.
(p) On
or after the Applicable Time there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading
in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market; (ii) a suspension or material limitation in trading
in the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared
by either Federal or New York State authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance
services in the United States; (iv) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by

of the Shares being delivered at such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated
in the Prospectus;
If any condition specified
in this Section 8 shall not have been fulfilled when and as required to be fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated, subject

in Section 12.
9. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification
of the Underwriters. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any
Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against any and
all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever as incurred (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and any and all reasonable expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced
or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and subject to Section 9(c) any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or
litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or any post-effective amendment thereof,
including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus,
or in any supplement thereto or amendment thereof, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication,
or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each
Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any
such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, or any post-effective amendment thereof, including any information
deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package, or the Prospectus,
or in any supplement thereto or amendment thereof, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication
in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through
the Representatives in their capacity as such expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information
furnished by any Underwriter is the information described as such in Section 9(b) below.
(b) Indemnification
of Company, Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
each of the directors of the Company, each of the officers of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement, and each
other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of
the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever as incurred (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against
any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and, subject to Section 9(c), any and all amounts paid in settlement
of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or any
post-effective amendment thereof, including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing
Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or in any supplement thereto or amendment thereof, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written
Testing-the-Waters Communication, or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under
the Securities Act, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based
upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in strict
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly
for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists
of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the last paragraph at the bottom of the cover
page concerning the terms of the offering by the Underwriters, the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the fourth paragraph
under the caption “Underwriting” and the information contained in the tenth, eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth
and sixteenth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting.”
(c) Notifications
and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or 9(b) of
notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under such Section, notify each party against whom indemnification is to be sought in writing of the commencement thereof (but
the failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 9).
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof,
the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to
the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such
indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except
with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party
or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing
by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed
counsel to have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) such
indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from
or additional to those available to one or all of the indemnifying parties (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not have the
right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses
shall be borne by the indemnifying parties. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one
counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action
or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, which
counsel, in the event of indemnified parties under Section 9(a), shall be selected by the Representatives. No indemnifying party
shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment
with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder
(whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or
judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and
(ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified
party. Subject to the provisions of the following sentence, no indemnifying party shall be liable for settlement of any pending or threatened
action or any claim whatsoever that is effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
but if settled with its written consent, if its consent to such settlement has been unreasonably withheld or delayed or if there be a
judgment for the plaintiff in any such matter, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from
and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, if at any time an indemnified party shall have
requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party
agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 9(a) or 9(b) effected without
its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than forty-five (45) days after receipt by such indemnifying party
of the request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least
thirty (30) days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified
party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
(d) Contribution.
If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party
under Section 9(a) or 9(b) in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof)
referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares. If,
however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such
relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on
the other from the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in
each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the Underwriters
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation
(even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 9(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 9(d) shall
be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending
any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with
the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this Section 9(d) to contribute
are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.
(e) The
obligations of the parties to this Agreement contained in this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies
which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
10. Default
by One or More of the Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in its
or their obligations to purchase Shares hereunder on the Closing Date or any Option Closing Date and the aggregate number of Shares that
such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of Shares that the
Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Representatives may make
arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Shares by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if
no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall
be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Shares that such defaulting Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so
default and the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total number of Shares
that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, and arrangements satisfactory
to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Shares by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default,
this Agreement will terminate, subject to the provisions of Section 12, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter
or the Company, except as provided in Section 12. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
In the event of any such
default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone
the Closing Date or the relevant Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any
required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used in this Agreement, the
term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 10.
11. Termination
of Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, this Agreement (or the obligations
of the several Underwriters with respect to any Option Shares which have yet to be purchased) may be terminated, subject to the provisions
of Section 12, in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company, if after the execution and delivery
of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, (a) trading generally on the New
York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market shall have been suspended or materially limited, (b) trading of any securities of
or guaranteed by the Company or any Subsidiary shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (c) a
general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or
a new restriction materially adversely affecting the distribution of the Firm Shares or the Option Shares, as the case may be, shall
have become effective, or (d) there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the
international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development
involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which
is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable to market the Shares to be delivered on the Closing Date
or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares.
If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to this Section 11, such termination will be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 12
hereof.
12. Indemnities,
Representations and Agreements to Survive. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this
Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on
behalf of any Underwriter, the Company, or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person,
and will survive delivery of and payment for the Shares. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 or 11(a), (c) or
(d) hereof then (i) the Company shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 7
hereof, and (ii) the respective obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 9 and the provisions of
Sections 12, 13, 16 and 17 shall remain in effect; and, if any Shares have been purchased hereunder, then the representations and warranties
in Section 1 and all obligations under Sections 5, 6 and 7 shall also remain in effect. If this Agreement shall be terminated by
the Underwriters, or any of them, under Section 8 or 10 or otherwise because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company
to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason any of the Company shall be unable
to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any condition of the Underwriters’ obligations cannot be fulfilled, the Company
agrees to reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally
for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and expenses of its counsel), reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection
with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
13. Parties.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Underwriters,
the officers and directors of the Company referred to herein, any controlling persons of the Company or Underwriters referred to herein
and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give
any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision
herein contained. No purchaser of Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.
14. Notices.
All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given upon receipt thereof by the recipient if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices
to the Underwriters shall be given to the Representatives, c/o Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, One Montgomery

15. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all
of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,”
“delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this
Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form in compliance with
the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 or any comparable state statutes, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability
as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and
the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.
16. GOVERNING
LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO SUCH STATE’S PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

COURTS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY, OR ANY OTHER MATTER CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
18. No
Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the
purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Shares and
any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company on the one hand, and the several
Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting
solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, or its respective stockholders, creditors, employees or any other
party, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering
contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the
Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, and (iv) the
Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company agrees that it will not claim
that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to
the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
19. Conflict
of Interest. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters’ research analysts
and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain
regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment
recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective
investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company
may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their
independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to
the Company by such Underwriters’ investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full-service
securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or
the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
20. Disclosure
of Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company is authorized
to disclose to any persons the U.S. federal and state income tax treatment and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials
of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided to the Company relating to that treatment and structure, without
the Underwriters imposing any limitation of any kind. However, any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall
remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities
laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment.
21. Precedence
over Previous Agreements. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
(whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
22. WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. THE COMPANY AND EACH OF THE UNDERWRITERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
23. Recognition
of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter
that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter
of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer
would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed
by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(b) In
the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under
a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to
be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement
were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

“Default Right”
has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R Sections 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title

Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned refers to
the proposed Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among Asure Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, as representatives
(the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”). As an inducement
to the Representatives to execute the Underwriting Agreement in connection with the proposed public offering (the “Offering”)
of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”), pursuant to a Registration Statement
on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), including the prospectus contained therein (such prospectus, in the form
used to confirm sales of Common Stock in the Offering, the “Prospectus”), the undersigned hereby agrees that from the date
hereof and until 90 days after the public offering date set forth on the Prospectus (the “Public Offering Date”) (such 90
day period being referred to herein as the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not (and will cause any spouse or immediate
family member of the spouse or the undersigned living in the undersigned’s household, any partnership, corporation or other entity
within the undersigned’s control, and any trustee of any trust that holds Common Stock or other securities of the Company for the
benefit of the undersigned or such spouse or family member to not) offer, sell, assign, lend, contract to sell (including any short sale),
pledge, hypothecate, establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, purchase
any option or contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, or otherwise encumber, dispose of or transfer, or grant any
rights with respect to, directly or indirectly, any of the Undersigned’s Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction which
would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Common
Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition,
or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, except as provided herein. As used in this letter agreement,
the “Undersigned’s Shares” means any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any options or warrants to purchase
any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive
shares of Common Stock of the Company, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including holding
as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Ex. A - 1
Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the undersigned may,
(a) transfer
the Undersigned’s Shares:
(i) as
a bona fide gift or gifts;
(ii) to
an immediate family member or a trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or such immediate family member of the undersigned;
(iii) by
will or intestacy;
(iv) by
operation of law, including pursuant to a domestic relations order, divorce decree or court order;
(v) to
any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity all of the beneficial ownership interests of which are held by
the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned;
(vi) if
the undersigned is a trust, to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust; or
(vii) with
the prior written consent of the Representatives, which consent may be withheld in the Representatives’ sole discretion.
(b) establish
a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares, provided
that (i) such plan does not provide for the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares during the Lock-Up Period and (ii) no
public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the
Company regarding the establishment of such plan during the Lock-Up Period; or
(c) sell
Shares in the amounts provided to the Representatives in writing prior to the date hereof pursuant to a plan, contract or instruction
that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) that was in effect prior to the date hereof; provided
that any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or other public filing or announcement made during the Lock-Up
Period shall indicate that such sales were made pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan.
Ex. A - 2
In
addition, in the case of clauses (a)(i)-(vi) above, it shall be a condition to such transfer that each transferee, donee or distributee
executes and delivers to the Representatives a letter agreement in substantially the form of this letter agreement; and, provided,
further that in the case of clauses (a)(i)-(vi) above, no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or other
public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period. To the extent any such transfers are made
pursuant to clauses (a)(i)-(vi) above, any of the Undersigned’s Shares retained by the undersigned (or the undersigned’s
spouse or immediate family member living in the undersigned’s household) following such transfer shall remain subject to the restrictions
contained in this letter agreement.
This letter agreement shall
not apply to: (a) the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation
or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Common Stock involving a change of control (as defined below) of the Company,
provided that in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Undersigned’s
Shares shall remain subject to the restrictions contained herein; (b) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities
acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering, provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the
Exchange Act shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Common Stock or other securities acquired
in such open market transactions; or (c) transfers to the Company in connection with the exercise of options or warrants on a “cashless”
or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax withholding obligations upon the exercise of options or warrants or the vesting of
restricted stock units, provided that any related filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a disposition of
shares of Common Stock made in connection with such exercise shall contain a description of the transaction and indicate that the disposition
was made as part of such exercise or to cover tax withholding obligations in connection therewith.
For purposes of this letter
agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption, not more
remote than first cousin.
In addition, the undersigned
agrees that, during the Lock-Up Period, without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld in its
sole discretion): (a) the undersigned will not request, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration
of any Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock and (b) the undersigned waives
any and all notice requirements and rights with respect to the registration of any such security pursuant to any agreement, understanding
or otherwise to which the undersigned is a party.
In furtherance of the foregoing,
the Company and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to (i) decline to make any transfer of the Undersigned’s
Shares if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this letter agreement and (ii) place legends and stop transfer
instructions on the Undersigned’s Shares.
Ex. A - 3
The undersigned and the Representatives
hereby consent to receipt of this letter agreement in electronic form and understand and agree that this letter agreement may be signed
electronically. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, electronic mail, or otherwise by electronic transmission
evidencing an intent to sign this letter agreement (including any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000,
e.g., www.docusign.com), such facsimile transmission, electronic mail or other electronic transmission shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the undersigned with the same force and effect as if such signature were an original. Execution and delivery of
this letter agreement by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or other electronic transmission is legal, valid and binding for all
purposes.
This letter agreement is
irrevocable and shall be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned.
This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to choice
of law rules. This letter agreement shall automatically terminate and the undersigned will be released from all of his, her or its obligations
hereunder upon the earliest to occur, if any, of (i) prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company advises the
Representatives in writing that it has determined not to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the Company files an application to withdraw
the Registration Statement, (iii) the Underwriting Agreement is executed but is terminated (other than the provisions thereof which
survive termination) prior to payment for and delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, (iv) the consummation of a change
of control of the Company, meaning (a) the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, or sale or other disposition
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (b) the acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under such Act) of more than fifty percent (50%) of either (1) the then outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company;
or (2) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election
of directors or (v) August 31, 2023, in the event the Underwriting Agreement has not been executed by such date.
This letter agreement constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Austin, TX 78701
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for
Asure Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale by the
Company of up to 3,333,333 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the

will be issued pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-254138) (the “Registration Statement”)
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Act”), and declared effective by the Commission on April 21, 2021, and the related prospectus dated therein (the
“Prospectus”) and the preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the Commission on August 16, 2023 pursuant
to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”). This opinion is being provided at

Subject to the foregoing and
the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of August 16, 2023, the Shares have been duly authorized and,
upon issuance, delivery and payment therefor in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus
Supplement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

solely with respect to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States, as in effect on
