Exhibit 10.14

Voting Agreement

This Voting Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 5, 2018 between the undersigned stockholder (“Stockholder”) of SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Company.

WHEREAS, concurrently with or following the execution of this Agreement, the Company, has entered, or will enter, into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), providing for, among other things, the sale and delivery of up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 of Shares and Warrants (each as defined in the Purchase Agreement) to the Purchasers identified on the signature pages to the Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers have required that Stockholder execute and deliver this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Purchasers to enter into the Purchase Agreement, Stockholder is willing to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements with respect to the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Stockholder and set forth below Stockholder’s signature on the signature page hereto (the “Original Shares” and, together with any additional shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the “Shares”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Definitions.

For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

2.Representations of Stockholder.

Stockholder represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a)(i) Stockholder owns beneficially (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) all of the Original Shares free and clear of all Liens, and (ii) except pursuant hereto, there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character to which Stockholder is a party relating to the pledge, disposition or voting of any of the Original Shares and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Original Shares.

 


 

(b)Stockholder does not beneficially own any shares of Company Common Stock other than (i) the Original Shares and (ii) any options, warrants or other rights to acquire any additional shares of Company Common Stock or any security exercisable for or convertible into shares of Company Common Stock, set forth on the signature page of this Agreement (collectively, Options).

(c)Stockholder has full corporate power and authority to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform fully Stockholder’s obligations hereunder (including the proxy described in Section 3(b) below). This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in accordance with its terms.

(d)None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Stockholder, the consummation by Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby or compliance by Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof will conflict with or result in a breach, or constitute a default (with or without notice of lapse of time or both) under any provision of, any trust agreement, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument, law or regulation applicable to Stockholder or to Stockholder’s property or assets.

(e)No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any governmental authority or other Person on the part of Stockholder is required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement. To the extent the consent of Stockholder’s spouse is necessary under any “community property” or other laws in order for Stockholder to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, such spouse has provided such consent by executing a signature page hereto.

3.Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy.

(a)Stockholder agrees during the term of this Agreement to vote the Shares in favor of any proposal to allow the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock in full (without regard to the 19.99% ownership limitation contained in the Certificate of Designation with respect thereto) into Common Stock, that may be recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors.

(b)Stockholder hereby appoints the Company and any designee of the Company, and each of them individually, its proxies and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote during the term of this Agreement with respect to the Shares in accordance with Section 3(a). This proxy and power of attorney is given to secure the performance of the duties of Stockholder under this Agreement. Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. This proxy and power of attorney granted by Stockholder shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Stockholder with respect to the Shares and the matters contemplated in Section 3(a). The power of attorney granted by Stockholder herein is

2


 

a durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of Stockholder. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.

4.No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangement.

Stockholder agrees that Stockholder will not, and will not permit any entity under Stockholder’s control to, deposit any of the Shares in a voting trust, grant any proxies with respect to the Shares or subject any of the Shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the Shares other than as provided for in the Transaction Documents.

5.Transfer and Encumbrance.

Stockholder agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell, offer, exchange, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber (“Transfer”) any of the Shares or enter into any contract, option or other agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of the Shares or Stockholder’s voting or economic interest therein, unless any such recipient of such transferred Shares agrees to execute a Voting Agreement with respect to the Transfer containing these identical terms. Any attempted Transfer of Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void. This Section 5 shall not prohibit a Transfer of the Shares by Stockholder to any member of Stockholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of Stockholder or any member of Stockholder’s immediate family, upon the death of Stockholder, or to an Affiliate of Stockholder; provided, that a Transfer referred to in this sentence shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.

6.Additional Shares.

Stockholder agrees that all shares of Company Common Stock that Stockholder purchases, acquires the right to vote or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of after the execution of this Agreement but prior to the record date for the meeting of stockholders of the Company contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

7.Termination.

This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock in full, (ii) the affirmative determination by the Company’s Board of Directors to abandon or discontinue efforts to solicit the requisite stockholder approval to effectuate such conversion, or (iii) the mutual agreement of both parties hereto.

8.No Agreement as Director or Officer.

3


 

Stockholder makes no agreement or understanding in this Agreement in Stockholders capacity as a director or officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (if Stockholder holds such office), and nothing in this Agreement: (a) will limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by Stockholder in stockholders capacity as such a director or officer, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement or (b) will be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict Stockholder from exercising Stockholders fiduciary duties as an officer or director to the Company or its stockholders.

9.Specific Performance.

Each party hereto acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the other party if a party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the other party will not have an adequate remedy at law or damages. Accordingly, each party hereto agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the seeking of such relief on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law. Each party hereto agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with the other party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.

10.Entire Agreement.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by either party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof by such party.

11.Notices.

All notices, requests, claims, demands, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested), or (c) on the date sent by e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient.
