Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Agreement for Legal Services

On September 8, 2016 e.Digital Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Retainer Agreement for legal services and contingent fee arrangement (“Agreement”) with Handal & Associates, Inc. (“Handal”), which supersedes and replaces all previous agreements for legal services by Handal. Refer to Item 1.02 herein. The new Agreement, effective as of September 1, 2016, provides that Handal will be the Company’s legal counsel in connection with licensing and prosecuting claims of infringement of the Company’s Nunchi® Patent Portfolio.

Handal has agreed to represent the Company in connection with claims against third parties that may infringe on e.Digital’s Nunchi Patent Portfolio, on a partial contingent fee basis. The Company will pay a monthly retainer fee of $22,500 so long as Handal is simultaneously litigating ten or fewer cases. Parties agree to meet and discuss an increase in the amount of the monthly retainer should the number of cases exceed ten. Monthly retainers paid are creditable against future contingency recoveries. The Company has agreed to reimburse Handal for pre-approved expenditures advanced on behalf of the Company and to pay Handal a fee of 40% of any net license fee or settlement, as defined in the Agreement, related to the Nunchi Patent Portfolio.

A copy of the Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the transaction set forth above does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
