As previously disclosed,
on December 19, 2024, WiSA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase
Agreement”) with CompuSystems, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CSI”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to purchase,
assume and accept from CSI all of the rights, title and interests in, to and under the assets and interests used in the Acquired Business
(as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), and products and services solely to the extent they utilize the Transferred Assets (as defined
in the Asset Purchase Agreement), including CSI’s customer contracts, trademarks, and other intellectual property.
On December 30, 2024,
the Company and CSI entered into amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant
to the Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment, the parties agreed to amend the definition of Breakup Fee to mean an amount in cash equal to
$1,000,000, paid into the Escrow Account (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) by January 10, 2025.
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment, the parties also agreed to amend Section 6.21 of the Asset Purchase Agreement to allow
the Company to cause the majority of the stockholders of the Company to execute the Voting Agreement (as defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement) by January 10, 2025.
Except as stated above,
the Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment does not make any other substantive changes to the Asset Purchase Agreement.
A copy of the Asset Purchase
Agreement Amendment is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by
reference, and the foregoing description of the Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

Cautionary Note
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This
report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1955. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations with respect
to the proposed asset purchase, including statements regarding the benefits of the transaction, the anticipated timing of the transaction,
the implied valuation of CSI, the products offered by CSI and the markets in which CSI operates, and the Company’s projected future
results. Words such as “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,”
“intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,”
“should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely
result,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are predictions,
projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject
to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these
factors are outside of the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause actual future events to differ
materially from the expected results, include, but are not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely
manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of the Company’s securities, (ii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to
the consummation of the transaction, including the adoption of the Asset Purchase Agreement by the stockholders of the Company, (iii)
the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement, (iv)
the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on the Company’s business relationships, performance, and business
generally, (v) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition
and the ability of the post-combination company to grow and manage growth profitability and retain its key employees, (vi) costs related
to the asset purchase, (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company or CSI following the announcement
of the proposed asset purchase, (viii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion
of the proposed asset purchase, and identify and realize additional opportunities, (ix) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid
change in the highly competitive industries in which the Company and CSI operate, (x) the risk that any adverse changes in CSI’s
relationships with buyer, sellers and distribution partners may adversely affect the predicted business, financial condition and results
of operations, (xi) the risk that periods of rapid growth and expansion could place a significant strain on the Company’s resources,
including its employee base, which could negatively impact the Company’s operating results, (xii) the risk that the Company may
need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which many not be available on acceptable terms or at all, (xiii) the risk
that third-parties suppliers and manufacturers are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations, and (xiv) the risk that the Company
is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property. There may be additional risks that the Company presently do not know or that
the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking
statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
