Ladies and Gentlemen:

LiqTech International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell registered securities of the Company, consisting of up to [*] shares of Common Stock (the “Shares” or the “Securities”). “Common Stock” means the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share.

Subject to the terms of this Placement Agency Agreement (the “Agreement”), Sunrise Securities Corp. (“Sunrise” or the “Placement Agent”) shall serve as the exclusive placement agent for the Company, on a “best efforts” basis, in connection with the proposed offering of the Securities (the “Placement”). The terms of such Placement shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the purchasers (each, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) and nothing herein constitutes that the Placement Agent would have the power or authority to bind the Company or any Purchaser or creates an obligation for the Company to issue any Securities or complete the Placement. This Agreement and the documents executed and delivered by the Company to the Purchasers in connection with the Placement shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.”

The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent’s obligations hereunder are on a best efforts basis only and that the execution of this Agreement does not constitute a commitment by the Placement Agent to purchase any of the Securities and does not ensure the successful placement of the Securities or any portion thereof, or the success of the Placement Agent with respect to securing any other financing on behalf of the Company. The Placement Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Securities and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Securities and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part.

(i) 8.00% times the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Placement

(ii) warrants, exercisable for a period of five years from the effective date of the registration statement, which shall entitle the Placement Agent to acquire equity ownership in the Company for an exercise price of 125% of the consideration paid by the investors in the Placement would pay for the proportionate equity interest, in the amount determined as 5.00% times equity stake acquired by investors introduced by the Placement Agent. The warrants will be subject to a lock-up restriction for 180 days pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g) and the warrants will not be exercisable for two years after the effective date of the registration statement related to the offering. .

Section 2. Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Placement Agent that:

(a) The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement, on Form S-1 (Registration File No. 333-178837) (the "Registration Statement"), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which became effective on [*], for the registration under the Securities Act of the Shares. “Preliminary Prospectus” refers to any preliminary prospectus related to the Registration Statement, including any prospectus that is included in the Registration Statement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The form of the final prospectus dated the effective date of the Registration Statement (or, if applicable, the form of final prospectus containing information permitted to be omitted at the time of effectiveness by Rule 430A of the Securities Act filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act), is hereinafter called the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Time of Sale”, as used in the Act, means [5:00] [p.m.], New York City time, on the date of this Agreement. Prior to the Time of Sale, the Company prepared a Preliminary Prospectus, dated February [__], 2012, for distribution by the Placement Agent (the “Statutory Prospectus”).

 Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to refer to and include the appendixes to the Registration Statement and the documents incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”) including those which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on or before the date of this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the date of this Agreement deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included,” “described,” “referenced,” “set forth” or “stated” in the Registration Statement (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, and no proceeding for any such purpose is pending or has been initiated or, to the Company’s knowledge, is threatened by the Commission. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “knowledge” as used in this Agreement with respect to the Company shall mean actual knowledge of the Company’s officers and directors after due and reasonable inquiry.

(b) The Registration Statement (and any further documents to be filed with the Commission in connection with the Placement) contains or will contain, as applicable, all exhibits and schedules as required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Rules and Regulations”). The Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time it became effective, complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and the applicable Rules and Regulations and did not and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will not, contain any 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 not misleading. As of its date, the Closing Date (as defined in Section 4), the Prospectus (together with any supplement thereto) did not and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or 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. At the Time of Sale, the Statutory Prospectus did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement reflecting any facts or events arising after the date thereof which represent, individually or in the aggregate, a fundamental change in the information set forth therein is required to be filed with the Commission. There are no documents required to be filed with the Commission in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby that (x) have not been filed as required pursuant to the Securities Act or (y) will not be filed within the requisite time period. There are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the Registration Statement, or to be filed as exhibits or schedules to the Registration Statement, which have not been described or filed as required.

(c) The Company had a reasonable basis for, and made in good faith, each “forward-looking statement” (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act or Section 21E of the Exchange Act) contained in the Registration Statement.

(d) All statistical or market-related data included in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus are based on or derived from sources that the Company reasonably believes to be reliable and accurate, and, to the extent necessary, the Company has obtained the written consent to the use of such data from such sources.

(e) The Company has delivered, or will as promptly as practicable deliver, to the Placement Agent complete conformed copies of the Registration Statement and of each consent and certificate of experts, as applicable, filed as a part thereof, and conformed copies of the Registration Statement (without exhibits), any Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, in such quantities and at such places as the Placement Agent reasonably requests. Neither the Company nor any of its directors and officers has distributed and none of them will distribute, prior to the Closing Date, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities other than the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus and any other materials permitted by the Securities Act.

Section 3. Representations Warranties and Certain Agreements. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Placement Agent that:

Except as set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, the Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of each Subsidiary free and clear of any “Liens” (which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean a lien, charge, security interest, encumbrance, right of first refusal, preemptive right or other restriction, other than restrictions imposed by applicable securities laws). All the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries is an entity validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as applicable), with the requisite power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation or default of any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not have or reasonably be expected to result in (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, (ii) a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, business or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to perform in any material respect its obligations under any Transaction Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”) and, to the Company’s knowledge, no “Proceeding” (which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean any action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding (including, without limitation, an investigation or partial proceeding, such as a deposition), whether commenced or threatened) has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or qualification.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into each of the Transaction Documents, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is required by the Company, its board of directors or its shareholders in connection therewith other than in connection with the Required Approvals (as defined in Section 3(d) below). Each Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (iii) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the foreign, federal and state securities laws.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance and sale of the Securities and the consummation by the Company of the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (iii) subject to the Required Approvals, conflict with or result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other “Person” (defined as an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind)) in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, other than such filings as are required to be made under applicable federal and state securities laws, and rules and regulations promulgated by FINRA (collectively, the “Required Approvals”), all of which will be made in a timely manner to the extent such filings are required or desirable to be made by the Company, with the exception of filings with FINRA, which the parties have agreed will be made by Sunrise.

(e) Issuance of the Securities; Registration. The Securities are duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the applicable Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens imposed by the Company. The Company has reserved from its duly authorized capital stock the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The issuance by the Company of the Securities has been registered under the Securities Act and all of such shares are freely transferable and tradable by the Purchasers without restriction (other than any restrictions arising solely from an act or omission of a Purchaser). The Securities are being issued pursuant to the Registration Statement and the issuance of the Securities has been registered by the Company under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement was declared effective on [*], 2012 and is available for the issuance of the Securities thereunder and the Company has not received any notice that the Commission has issued or intends to issue a stop-order with respect to the Registration Statement or that the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or intends or has threatened in writing to do so. The Purchasers will have good and marketable title to the Shares upon receipt of such Shares, and such securities will be freely tradable on the “Trading Market” (which, for purposes of this Agreement shall mean the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board).

(f) Capitalization. The capitalization of the Company is as set forth in the “Actual” column in the table contained in the heading “Capitalization” in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus. No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Except as disclosed in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus or pursuant to equity compensation plans or agreements filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement, there are no outstanding options, warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock. The issuance and sale of the Securities will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers and Sunrise) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. No further approval or authorization of any shareholder, the Board of Directors of the Company or others is required for the issuance and sale of the Securities. There are no shareholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Company’s shareholders.

No executive officer, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and, to the Company’s knowledge, the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be in compliance would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases of which the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with the provisions thereof, except where such non-compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Sunrise Securities Corp.

600 Lexington Avenue, 23rd Floor

New York, NY 10022

Ladies and Gentlemen:

1. In connection with our engagement of Sunrise Securities Corp. (the “Placement Agent” or "Sunrise") as Placement Agent, LiqTech International, Inc. (the "Company") agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Sunrise and each of the other Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses and disbursements, and any and all pending or threatened actions, suits, proceedings and investigations in respect thereof and any and all legal and other costs, expenses and disbursements in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to a subpoena or otherwise (including, without limitation, the costs, expenses and disbursements, as and when incurred, of investigating, preparing, pursuing 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, Sunrise's acting for the Company, including, without limitation, any act or omission by Sunrise in connection with its acceptance of or the performance or non-performance of its obligations under the Placement Agency Agreement, any material breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in the Placement Agency Agreement (or in any instrument, document or agreement relating thereto), or the enforcement by Sunrise of their rights under the Placement Agency Agreement or these indemnification provisions, except to the extent that any such Losses are the result of a settlement by an Indemnified Party effected without the Company's prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) or are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any 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 Sunrise by the Company or for any other reason, except to the extent that any such liability is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

2. These indemnification provisions shall extend to the following persons (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"): Sunrise, their present and former affiliated entities, partners, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and the officers, directors, partners, stockholders, members, managers, employees, legal counsel, agents 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.

3. 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 their respective obligations hereunder. The Company shall provide for the engagement of one law firm reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Parties to provide legal representation to the Indemnified Parties, and the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that any Indemnified Person may retain his or her own legal counsel if a conflict would exist with such first firm of legal counsel. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company, as applicable. The Company shall be liable for any settlement of any claim against any Indemnified Party made with the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Sunrise, 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 (a) 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 (b) 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.

4. 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 (a) in accordance with the relative benefits received by the Company and its respective stockholders, subsidiaries and affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and (b) if (and only if) the allocation provided in clause (a) of this sentence is not permitted by applicable law or by any such court, 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 such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its respective stockholders, subsidiaries and affiliates shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate consideration payable or receivable by such parties in connection with the transaction or transactions to which the Placement Agency Agreement relates relative to the amount of fees actually received by Sunrise in connection with such transaction or transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount contributed by all Indemnified Parties exceed the amount of fees previously received by Sunrise pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement.

5. Neither termination nor completion of the engagement of Sunrise referred to above shall effect these indemnification provisions which shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall be in addition to any liability that the Company might otherwise have to any Indemnified Party under the Placement Agency Agreement or otherwise. The indemnification provisions shall be binding upon the Company and its respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives.

These Indemnification Provisions may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures shall be deemed originals for all purposes hereunder.

The provisions of this agreement shall remain in full force and effect following the completion or termination of the Placement Agent’s engagement.
