Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 26, 2021, RealNetworks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC, the sole underwriter named therein (the “Underwriter”), relating to an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 8,250,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Underwritten Shares”). The price to the public in the offering is $2.70 per share and the Underwriter has agreed to purchase the shares of common stock from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $2.538 per share. The proceeds to the Company from this offering, net of underwriting discounts but before estimated offering expenses, are expected to be approximately $20.9 million (or approximately $24.1 million if the Underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional shares in full). The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes and working capital.

The Offering is expected to close on or about April 29, 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company has also granted to the Underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,237,500 shares of Common Stock offered in the public offering at the offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions (together with the Underwritten Shares, the “Shares”).

The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-254808) (the “Registration Statement”), which was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2021 and declared effective by the SEC on April 15, 2021.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriter, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, certain executive officers and directors of the Company have entered into “lock-up” arrangements with the Underwriter, which generally prohibit the sale, transfer or other disposition of securities of the Company for a 90-day period following the date of the Underwriting Agreement, subject to certain exceptions.

The Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein, and the description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit. A copy of the opinion of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares in the offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 27, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits hereto, shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company, which is being made only by means of a written prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, nor shall there be any sale of the Company’s securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction.

(g) Registration Statement. A registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-254808) (including all amendments thereto, the “Initial Registration Statement”) in respect of the Shares has been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act. The Company meets the requirements to use Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. The Initial Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, each in the form heretofore delivered to the Underwriter, have been declared effective by the Commission in such form and meet the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. The proposed offering of the Shares may be made pursuant to General Instruction I.B.1 of Form S-3. Other than (i) the Initial Registration Statement, (ii) a registration statement, if any, increasing the size of the offering filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations (a “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”), (iii) any Preliminary Prospectus, (iv) the Prospectus contemplated by this Agreement to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations in accordance with SECTION 4(a) hereof, and (v) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, no other document with respect to the offer or sale of the Shares has heretofore been filed with the Commission. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, if any, has been issued under the 1933 Act, and no order preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, Pricing Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceedings for any of those purposes have been instituted or are pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened. The Initial Registration Statement including all exhibits thereto and including the information contained in the Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations and deemed by virtue of Rules 430A and 430B under the 1933 Act to be part of the Initial Registration Statement at the time it became effective is hereinafter collectively called the “Registration Statement.” If the Company has filed a Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.

Each of the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto, at the time it initially became effective, at each deemed effective date with respect to the Underwriter pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations, and at the Closing Date (and, if any Option Shares are purchased, at the applicable Option Closing Date), conformed and will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. Each Preliminary Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein. Any reference to any amendment or supplement to any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after the date of such Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus under the 1934 Act and incorporated by reference in such Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, as the case may be.

The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, when they became effective or at the time they were filed with the Commission, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations, and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, when such documents are filed with Commission, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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.

-5-

(h) Accuracy of Exhibits. There are no contracts or documents that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or to be filed as exhibits thereto that have not been so described and filed as required.

(i) Accurate Disclosure. At the Applicable Time and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, neither (i) the General Disclosure Package, nor (ii) any individual Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered in connection with the General Disclosure Package nor (iii) the bona fide electronic roadshow (as defined in Rule 433(h)(5) of the 1933 Act Regulations), when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereto, at the time it initially became effective, at each time subsequent to the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company filed an Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Commission, at each deemed effective date with respect to the Underwriter pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations, and at the Closing Date (and, if any Option Shares are purchased, at the applicable Option Closing Date), contained, contains or will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its issue date, at the time of any filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), at the Closing Date or at any Option Closing Date, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each Preliminary Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state 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. The representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the bona fide electronic roadshow (as defined in Rule 433(h)(5) of the 1933 Act Regulations) made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter expressly for use therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished shall be the information in the “Over-Allotment Option”, “Discounts, Commissions and Expenses” and “Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids” sections under the heading “Underwriting” in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”) as such statements relate to the Underwriter.

(j) Statements. The statements set forth in the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock”, insofar as they purport to constitute a summary of the terms of the Shares, and under the captions “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Regulations and Other External Factors”, “Risk Factors – Risks Related to our Governance and Capital Structure”, “Capitalization”, and “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders”, including in each case information incorporated by reference therein, insofar as they constitute summaries of legal matters, laws, legal conclusions, statutes and regulations and documents referred to therein, are accurate and fair summaries of such terms in all material respects.

-6-

(k) Statistical and Market-Related Data. Any statistical and market-related data included in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus are based on or derived from sources that the Company reasonably and in good faith believes are reliable and accurate and such data agree with the sources from which they are derived.

(l) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, at the time of filing with the Commission, complied or will comply in all material respects with the 1933 Act. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Shares, did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein and any prospectus supplement deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified, or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that the foregoing representations and warranties in this paragraph shall not apply to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information the parties hereto agree is limited to the Underwriter’s Information.

(m) Company Not Ineligible Issuer. At the time of filing the Initial Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the earliest time thereafter that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations) of the Shares and at the date hereof, the Company was not and is not an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act. In the preceding three years, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor or been made the subject of a judicial or administrative decree or order as described in Rule 405 of the 1933 Regulations (without taking into account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 of the 1933 Regulations that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an ineligible issuer), nor been an “excluded issuer” as defined in Rule 164 under the 1933 Act.

(n) Distribution of Offering Materials. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute any prospectus or other offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares other than any Preliminary Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or other materials permitted by the 1933 Act to be distributed by the Company; provided, that the Company has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus except in accordance with this Agreement. The Company will file with the Commission all Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses in the time and manner required under Rules 163(b)(2) and 433(d) of the 1933 Act Regulations. The Company has not engaged in any oral or written “testing-the-waters” communications relating to the Shares with potential investors undertaken in reliance on Section 5(d) of the 1933 Act and Rule 163B promulgated thereunder.

(o) Capitalization. The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth in the Pricing Prospectus and all of the issued Common Shares have been duly and validly authorized and issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and conform to the description of the Common Shares contained in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. After giving effect to

-7-

the issuance of the Firm Shares and the use of the net proceeds therefrom as described in the Pricing Prospectus, the Company would have, for illustrative purposes only as of December 31, 2020, an authorized capitalization as set forth under the pro forma column of the share capital table in the section of the Pricing Prospectus entitled “Capitalization”; and all of the issued shares of each subsidiary of the Company will have been duly and validly authorized and issued and be fully paid and will be owned directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of all liens, equities, rights, charges, encumbrances and other interests (“Liens”), except for such Liens or encumbrances described in the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus.

(p) Financial Statements of the Company. The Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus, together with the related schedules and notes, present fairly in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved. The supporting schedules, if any, present fairly in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP, the information required to be stated therein. All non-GAAP financial information included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus complies in all material respects with the requirements of Regulation G and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act, to the extent applicable. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no material off-balance sheet arrangements of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus 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. The selected financial data, the summary financial information and any other financial information of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein and have been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements included therein, except as disclosed therein. Except as included therein, no historical or pro forma financial statements or supporting schedules are required to be included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus under the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations.

(q) Accounting Controls and Disclosure Controls. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined under Rule 13a-15 under the 1934 Act Regulations) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.

-21-

SECTION 7. Company Acknowledgements.

(a) No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The subscription for, issue 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 Underwriter, on the other hand. In connection with the offering of the Shares and the process leading thereto, the Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective shareholders, creditors, employees or any other party. The Underwriter has not assumed and will not assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering of the Shares or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on other matters) and the Underwriter has no obligation to the Company with respect to the offering of the Shares except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Underwriter and its respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company. The Underwriter has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering of the Shares and the Company has consulted with its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

(b) Research Analyst Independence. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter’s research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from its investment banking division and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that the Underwriter’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the sale of Shares that differ from the views of their investment banking division. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, rules and regulations, 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 Company; provided, that nothing in this SECTION 7 shall relieve the Underwriter of any responsibility or liability it may otherwise bear in connection with activities in violation of applicable securities laws, rules or regulation.

SECTION 8. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of Underwriter. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter and its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the 1933 Act (each, an “Affiliate”)), directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act from and against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (to the extent documented and reasonably incurred) whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse any such person promptly upon demand for any legal fees or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating, or preparing to defend, or defending against, or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, as such fees and expenses are incurred; provided, that this indemnity obligation shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of or based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a

-22-

material fact made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(b) Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers. The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (to the extent documented and reasonably incurred) whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, was made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each party to be indemnified hereunder shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this SECTION 8, but failure to notify an indemnifying party shall relieve such indemnifying party from liability hereunder only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result thereof. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, 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), and, after such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this SECTION 8 for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. An indemnified party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, (iii) the indemnified person shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from, or in addition to, the defenses available to the indemnifying party, or (iv) the named parties to any such action (including the impleaded parties) including both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to differing interests between the indemnifying party and any indemnified party. 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. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment

-23-

with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this SECTION 8 or SECTION 9 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding 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.

SECTION 9. Contribution. To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Shares as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this SECTION 9 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this SECTION 9. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this SECTION 9 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this SECTION 9, the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which the Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any 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 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

-24-

For purposes of this SECTION 9, each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and the Underwriter’s Affiliates, directors and officers shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

SECTION 10. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriter or their Affiliates or selling agents, any person controlling the Underwriter, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Shares.

SECTION 11. Termination of Agreement.

(a) Termination. The Underwriter may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Date (or, in the case of an Option Closing Date that is subsequent to the Closing Date for the Firm Shares), (i) if a Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred, (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, or any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving in any such case a prospective adverse 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 good faith judgment of the Underwriter, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares, (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or Nasdaq where trading has not been suspended or materially limited as described in the immediately following clause, (iv) if trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Capital Market has been suspended or materially limited, (v) if a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or (vi) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York state authorities.

(b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 11, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in SECTION 5(b) hereof (which shall survive such termination), and provided further that this SECTION 11(b) and SECTION 8, SECTION 9, SECTION 10, SECTION 15, SECTION 16 and SECTION 17 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 12. Default.

(a) By the Company. If the Company shall fail at the Closing Date (or, an Option Closing Date) to issue the number of Shares that it is obligated to issue hereunder, then this Agreement shall terminate without any liability on the part of the Underwriter or any non-defaulting party; provided, that this SECTION 12 and the provisions of SECTION 5, SECTION 8, SECTION 9, SECTION 10, SECTION 15, SECTION 16 and SECTION 17 shall remain in full force and effect. No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve the Company from liability, if any, in respect of such default.

Re: RealNetworks, Inc. – Lock-Up Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement is delivered to you pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into by RealNetworks, Inc., a Washington corporation (the “Company”), and Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC, the underwriter (the “Underwriter”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriter intends to effect a public offering of shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Shares”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Offering”). Terms used herein, but not defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

The undersigned recognizes that it is in the best financial interests of the undersigned, as an officer or director, or a holder of Common Shares or options, warrants, performance units or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, that the undersigned not sell Common Shares in the public market for a reasonable period following the Offering.

The undersigned further recognizes that the Common Shares held by the undersigned are, or may be, subject to certain restrictions on transferability, including those imposed by United States federal securities laws. Notwithstanding these restrictions, the undersigned has agreed to enter into this letter agreement to further assure the Underwriter that the Common Shares of the undersigned, now held or hereafter acquired, will not enter the public market at a time that might impair the underwriting effort.

Therefore, as an inducement to the Underwriter to execute the Underwriting Agreement, the undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that the undersigned agrees that, during the period beginning from the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continuing to and including the date 90 days after the date set forth on the final prospectus supplement used to sell the Shares (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned shall not, and shall not cause or direct any of its affiliates to, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, lend or otherwise dispose of any Common Shares, or any options or warrants to purchase any Common Shares, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive Common Shares (such options, warrants or other securities, collectively, “Derivative Instruments”), including without limitation any such shares or Derivative Instruments now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned, (ii) engage in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement (including,

A-1

without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or instrument, however described or defined) which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition (whether by the undersigned or someone other than the undersigned), or transfer of any of the economic consequences of ownership, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, of any Common Shares or Derivative Instruments, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of Common Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise (any such sale, loan, pledge or other disposition, or transfer of economic consequences, a “Transfer”) or (iii) otherwise publicly announce any intention to engage in or cause any action or activity described in clause (i) above or transaction or arrangement described in clause (ii) above. The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned is not, and has not caused or directed any of its affiliates to be or become, currently a party to any agreement or arrangement that provides for, is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in any Transfer during the Lock-Up Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the undersigned agrees that the foregoing provisions shall be equally applicable to any issuer-directed or other Common Shares the undersigned may purchase in the offering.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions in the foregoing paragraph shall not apply to:

(i) transfers of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares (A) as a bona fide gift, including to charitable organizations, or by will or intestacy, (B) to the spouse, domestic partner, parent, sibling, child or grandchild of the undersigned or any other person with whom the undersigned has a relationship by blood, marriage or adoption not more remote than first cousin (each, “an immediate family member”) or to a trust, or other entity formed for estate planning purposes, formed for the benefit of the undersigned or of an immediate family member of the undersigned, (C) if the undersigned is a corporation or partnership or limited liability company or other business entity, to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the undersigned or (D) if the undersigned is a trust, to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust; provided, that in the case of any Transfer or distribution pursuant to this clause (i), each transferee, donee or distributee shall sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter;

(ii) transactions by any person other than the Company relating to Common Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering;

(iii) distributions of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable into for Common Shares to limited partners, members or stockholders of the undersigned; provided, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to this clause (iii), each donee or distributee shall sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter;

(iv) the receipt by the undersigned from the Company of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares upon the vesting of share or stock awards or the exercise of options or warrants issued pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans or the transfer of Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares to the Company upon a vesting event of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase the Company’s securities (including settlement of restricted stock units), in each case on a “cashless” or “net

A-2

exercise” basis or to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise, insofar as such share or stock award, option or warrant was outstanding on the date of the Underwriting Agreement and would, by its terms, expire, during the Lock-Up Period (except that the requirement of expiration during the Lock-Up Period shall not apply to share or stock awards that by their terms are automatically paid or settled upon vesting); provided, that any such securities issued upon the vesting of such share or stock award or exercise of such option or warrant or other right to acquire Common Shares received by the recipient shall continue to be subject to the restrictions set forth herein;

(v) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the 1934 Act (“10b5-1 Trading Plan”) for the transfer of Common Shares, provided that (a) sales under any such trading plan may not occur during the Lock-Up Period and (b) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the 1934 Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment or amendment of such 10b5-1 Trading Plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of Common Shares may be made under such 10b5-1 Trading Plan during the Lock-Up Period;

(vi) the Transfer of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares to the Company pursuant to existing agreements described in or filed as an exhibit to the registration statement with respect to the Offering under which the Company has the option to repurchase such shares or securities or a right of first refusal, as described in the Prospectus, with respect to transfers of such shares or securities;

(vii) if the undersigned is an individual, the Transfer of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares that occurs by operation of law pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement; provided, that the undersigned shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the transferee to sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter;

(viii) any Transfer of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, amalgamation, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Common Shares or such other securities involving a “change of control” (as defined below) of the Company following the Offering approved by the Company’s board of directors; provided, that all of the undersigned’s Common Shares or any security convertible into or exchange or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares subject to this agreement that are not so transferred, sold, tendered or otherwise disposed of remain subject to this agreement; provided, further, that in the event that the tender offer, amalgamation, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Common Shares or such other securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the terms of this agreement (for purposes of this clause (viii), “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the 1934 Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the 1934 Act) of a majority of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company);

(ix) Transfers of Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares to the undersigned’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned; provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to this clause (ix), (A) any such Transfer or distribution shall not involve a disposition for value and (B) each donee or distributee shall sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter;
