Quebec J7G 2A7, Canada

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter (the “Agreement”) constitutes the agreement between Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (“Joseph Gunnar” or the “Placement Agent”) and Vision Marine Technologies Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Quebec, Canada (the “Company”), that Joseph Gunnar shall serve as the exclusive placement agent for the Company, on a “commercially reasonable efforts” basis, in connection with the proposed placement (the “Placement”) of Series A Preferred Shares of the Company (“Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, which such Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s common shares, no par value (the “Common Stock”) and related Common Stock purchase warrant (“Warrants”), exercisable into Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants is herein referred to as the “Conversion Shares”. The Preferred Stock, Warrants and Conversion Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”. The terms of the Placement shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company, Joseph Gunnar and the purchasers (each, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) and nothing herein constitutes that Joseph Gunnar would have the power or authority to bind the Company or any Purchaser or an obligation for the Company to issue any Securities or complete the Placement. This Agreement and the documents executed and delivered by the Company or the Purchasers in connection with the Placement (including but not limited to the Purchase Agreement as defined below) shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.” The date on which there is a closing of the Placement (the “Closing”) shall be referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that Joseph Gunnar’s obligations hereunder are on a commercially reasonable efforts basis only and that the execution of this Agreement does not constitute a legal or binding commitment by Joseph Gunnar to purchase the Securities or introduce the Company to investors and does not ensure the successful placement of the Securities or any portion thereof or the success of Joseph Gunnar with respect to securing any other financing on behalf of the Company. The Placement Agent may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected-dealers on its behalf in connection with the Placement. The sale of the Securities to any Purchaser will be evidenced by a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and such Purchaser in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and Joseph Gunnar. Prior to the signing of the Purchase Agreement, officers of the Company will be available to answer inquiries from prospective Purchasers.

SECTION 1. COMPENSATION. As compensation for the services provided by Joseph Gunnar hereunder, the Company agrees to pay to Joseph Gunnar:

(A)A cash fee payable in U.S. dollars equal to six percent (6.0%) of the gross proceeds received by the Company from investors in the Placement from the sale of the Preferred Stock at the Closing and Option Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Cash Compensation”).

(B)The Company, at the Closing and Option Closing, will grant to the Placement Agent, non-redeemable warrants covering a number of shares of Common Stock equal to five percent (5%) of the total number of Shares issuable upon full conversion at the Set Price of the Preferred Stock issued at Closing (the “Placement Warrants”). The Placement Warrants will be non-exercisable for six (6) months after the Closing Date and shall be exercisable and expire five (5) years after such Closing. The Placement Warrants will be exercisable at a price per share equal to $1.05, subject to adjustment as set forth therein. The Placement Agent will be entitled to customary demand and “piggyback” rights pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110. If so registered, the Placement Warrants and the underlying securities may not be transferred, assigned or hypothecated for a period of six (6) months following the date of effectiveness or commencement of sales of the public offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1). The Placement Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part and, shall provide for “cashless exercise”.

1

(C)Subject to compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(D), subject to the closing of the Placement, the Company also agrees to reimburse Joseph Gunnar for all of Joseph Gunnar’s actual out-of-pocket accountable expenses upon receipt of reasonably acceptable evidence of such expenditures, including the reasonable fees of legal counsel of Joseph Gunnar and other out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum of $194,950 at the Closing. In addition, Joseph Gunnar shall be due a non-accountable expense reimbursement at Closing equal to one percent (1%) of the gross proceeds received by the Company from investors in the Placement.

(D)The Placement Agent reserves the right to reduce any item of compensation or adjust terms thereof as specified therein in the event that a determination shall be made by FINRA to the effect that the Placement Agent’s aggregate compensation is in excess of FINRA Rules or that the terms thereof require adjustment.

ADDENDUM A

INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS

Capitalized terms used in this Addendum shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement to which this Addendum is attached:

In addition to and without limiting any other right or remedy available to the Placement Agent and the Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined), to the extent permitted by law, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Placement Agent and each of the other Indemnified Parties from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, reasonable and accountable out-of-pocket costs, reasonable and accountable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable disbursements, and any and all actions, suits, proceedings and investigations in respect thereof and any and all reasonable legal and other reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to a subpoena or otherwise (including, without limitation, the reasonable and accountable out-of-pocket costs, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements, as and when incurred, of investigating, preparing, pursing or defending any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether or not in connection with litigation in which any Indemnified Party is a party)) (collectively, “Losses”), directly or indirectly, caused by, relating to, based upon, arising out of, or in connection with, Placement Agent’s acting for the Company and as a Placement Agent, including, without limitation, any act or omission by Placement Agent in connection with its acceptance of or the performance or nonperformance of its obligations under the Agreement between the Company and Placement Agent to which these indemnification provisions are attached and form a part, any breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in the Agreement (or in any instrument, document or agreement relating thereto or referred to therein, including the Purchase Agreements and any agency agreement), or the enforcement by Placement Agent of its rights under the Agreement or these indemnification provisions, except to the extent that any such Losses relate to or arise out of fraud, recklessness, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Placement Agent or any other Indemnified Party.

The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with the engagement of Placement Agent by the Company or for any other reason, except to the extent that any Loss relates to or arise out of fraud, recklessness, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Placement Agent or any other Indemnified Party.

These Indemnification Provisions shall extend to the following persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”): the Placement Agent, its affiliated entities, managers, members, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees, legal counsel, agents, representatives, and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and the officers, directors, partners, shareholders, members, managers, employees, legal counsel, agents, representatives and controlling persons of any of them. These indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability, which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party.

If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Party proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the Company with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure by an Indemnified Party to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from its obligations hereunder. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain one counsel of its own choice to represent it, and the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Company. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, reasonably cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company. The Company shall be liable for any settlement of any claim against any Indemnified Party made with the Placement Agent’s and the Company’s written consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Placement Agent, settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgment in respect thereof, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant to all of the Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim, and (ii) does not contain any factual or legal admission by or with respect to an Indemnified Party or an adverse statement with respect to the character, professionalism, expertise or reputation of any Indemnified Party or any action or inaction of any Indemnified Party.

A-1

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution, if a claim for indemnification pursuant to these indemnification provisions is made but it is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, even though the express provisions hereof provide for indemnification in such case, then the Company shall contribute to the Losses to which any Indemnified Party may be subject (i) in accordance with the relative benefits received by the Company and its shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, from the Placement of the Securities and (ii) if (and only if) the allocation provided in clause (i) of this sentence is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as to reflect not only the relative benefits, but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements, acts or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any relevant equitable considerations. No person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate consideration received or receivable by the Company in connection with the Placement of Securities relative to the amount of fees actually received by Placement Agent in connection with such Placement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount contributed by all Indemnified Parties exceed the amount of fees previously received by Placement Agent pursuant to the Agreement.

Neither termination nor completion of the Agreement shall affect these Indemnification Provisions which shall remain operative and in full force and effect. The Indemnification Provisions shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives.
