hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including the fees of their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of
any of the Securities by them, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make and that the Underwriters shall be
responsible for 50% of the cost of any chartered plane, jet, private aircraft, other aircraft or other transportation chartered in connection
with any “road show” presentation to investors undertaken in connection with the offering.

their discretion, to the condition that all representations and warranties and other statements of the Company herein are, at and as of
the Applicable Time and such Time of Delivery, true and correct, the condition that the Company shall have performed all of its obligations

obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to such Time of Delivery, as to such matters as you may reasonably request, and the
Company and CWGS, LLC shall have furnished or caused to be furnished certificates, as to the matters set forth in subsections (a) and

9. (a) The
Company and CWGS, LLC, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and its affiliates against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing
Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “roadshow”
as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act (a “roadshow”), any “issuer information” filed or required
to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, or arise out of or are based upon
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection
with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and CWGS,
LLC shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon
an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus,
any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus, or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(b) Each
Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and CWGS, LLC against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which
the Company or CWGS, LLC may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any roadshow, or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing
Prospectus or the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any roadshow or any
Testing-the-Waters Communication, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information; and will reimburse each of the
Company and CWGS, LLC for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or CWGS, LLC in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. As used in this Agreement with respect to an Underwriter and an applicable
document, “Underwriter Information” shall mean the written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through
the Representatives expressly for use therein; it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter
consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the concession and reallowance figures
appearing in the fifth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting”, and the information contained in the tenth, eleventh and
twelfth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting”.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any
liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 9 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced
(through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying
party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of
this Section 9. 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 notice from
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying
party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of
any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise
or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action 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.
(d) If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred
to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits
received by the Company and CWGS, LLC on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however,
the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute
to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits
but also the relative fault of the Company and CWGS, LLC on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements
or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and CWGS, LLC on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
and CWGS, LLC bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the
table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company and CWGS, LLC on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, CWGS, LLC and the Underwriters agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even
if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to
include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public
exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of 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 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’
obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.
(e) The
obligations of each of the Company and CWGS, LLC under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which each of the Company
and CWGS, LLC may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each employee, officer and director of each
Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act and each broker-dealer or other affiliate
of any Underwriter; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the
respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company
(including any person who, with his or her consent, is named in the Registration Statement as about to become a director of the Company)
and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.
10. (a) If
any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities which it has agreed to purchase hereunder at a Time of Delivery,
you may in your discretion arrange for you or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein.
If within thirty six hours after such default by any Underwriter you do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company
shall be entitled to a further period of thirty six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to you to
purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, you notify the Company that you have
so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, or the Company notifies you that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Securities,
you or the Company shall have the right to postpone such Time of Delivery for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect
whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements,
and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in your opinion
may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under
this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.
(b) If,
after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the
Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate number of such Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one
eleventh of the aggregate number of all the Securities to be purchased at such Time of Delivery, then the Company shall have the right
to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of shares which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder at such
Time of Delivery and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the number of Securities
which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements
have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
(c) If,
after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the
Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate number of such Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one eleventh
of the aggregate number of all the Securities to be purchased at such Time of Delivery, or if the Company shall not exercise the right
described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters,
then this Agreement (or, with respect to the Second Time of Delivery, the obligations of the Underwriters to purchase and of the Company
to sell the Optional Securities) shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company,
except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 7 hereof and the indemnity and contribution
agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
11. The
respective indemnities, rights of contribution, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the several
Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in
full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter
or any director, officer, employee, affiliate or controlling person of any Underwriter, or the Company, or any officer, director, affiliate
or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.
12. If
this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 10 hereof, neither the Company nor CWGS, LLC shall then be under any liability
to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof; but, if for any other reason, any Securities are not delivered by or
on behalf of the Company as provided herein, the Company and CWGS, LLC, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Underwriters through
you for all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses approved in writing by you, including reasonable and documented fees and
disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities
not so delivered, but the Company and CWGS, LLC shall then be under no further liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections
7 and 9 hereof.
13. In
all dealings hereunder, you shall act on behalf of each of the Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely
upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by you by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC
and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC on behalf of you as the Representatives.
All statements, requests,
notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile
transmission to you as the Representatives in care of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, 200 West Street, New York, New York 10282-2198,
Attention: Registration Department or J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, 383 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10179, Attention: Equity Syndicate
Desk, Fax: 212-622-8358; and if to the Company or CWGS, LLC shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the
address of the Company set forth in the Registration Statement, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; provided, however, that any notice
to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to such
Underwriter at its address set forth in its Underwriters’ Questionnaire, or telex constituting such Questionnaire, which address
will be supplied to the Company by you upon request. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt
thereof.
In accordance with the requirements
of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the underwriters are required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name
and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the underwriters to properly identify their respective
clients.
14. This
Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Company, CWGS, LLC and, to the extent provided
in Sections 9 and 11 hereof, the officers and directors of each of the Company and CWGS, LLC and each person who controls the Company
and CWGS, LLC or any Underwriter, or any director, officer, employee, or affiliate of any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser
of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.
15. Time
shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s
office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.
16. Each
of the Company and CWGS, LLC acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement
is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and CWGS, LLC on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the
other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a principal
and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or CWGS, LLC, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility
in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such
Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations
expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Company and CWGS, LLC consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent
it deemed appropriate. Each of the Company and CWGS, LLC and (v) none of the activities of the Underwriters in connection with the
transactions contemplated herein constitutes a recommendation, investment advice, or solicitation of any action by the Underwriters with
respect to any entity or natural person. The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered
advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or CWGS, LLC, in connection with such transaction
or the process leading thereto.
17. This
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, CWGS, LLC and the Underwriters,
or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
18. This
Agreement and any transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of New York without regard to principles of conflict of laws that would results in the application of any other law than the laws of the
State of New York. The Company agrees that any suit or proceeding arising in respect of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated
by this Agreement will be tried exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if that court does not
have subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in The City and County of New York and the Company agrees to submit to the
jurisdiction of, and to venue in, such courts.
19. The
Company, CWGS, LLC and each of the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and
all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
20. This
Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be
an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered
via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart
so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
21. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company is authorized to disclose to any persons the U.S. federal and state income tax treatment
and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided
to the Company relating to that treatment and structure, without the Underwriters’ imposing any limitation of any kind. However,
any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply)
to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited
to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment.
22. Recognition

the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer
from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent
as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were
governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(b) In the event that
any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special
Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to

The undersigned understands

Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
In consideration of the agreement
by the Underwriters to offer and sell the Shares, and of other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, during the period beginning from the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continuing to

Regulation Best Interest, the Underwriters have not made and are not making a recommendation to the undersigned to enter into this Lock-Up

nothing set forth in such disclosures or herein is intended to suggest that any Underwriter is making such a recommendation.
This Lock-Up Agreement shall
automatically terminate and the undersigned shall be released from all of his, her or its obligations hereunder upon the earlier of (i) the
date on which the Registration Statement filed with the SEC with respect to the Public Offering is withdrawn, (ii) the date on which

The undersigned understands
that the Company, CWGS, LLC, and the Underwriters are relying upon this Lock-Up Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public
Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3
(Registration No. 333-282897)
To the addressee set forth above:
We have acted as special counsel to Camping World
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the proposed issuance of 14,634,146
shares of Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Shares”). The Shares are included in a
registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 30, 2024 (Registration No. 333-282897)
(the “Registration Statement”), a base prospectus dated October 30, 2024 (the “Base Prospectus”)
and a prospectus supplement dated October 30, 2024 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act (together
with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”). The Shares are being sold pursuant to an underwriting agreement
dated October 30, 2024, by and among Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representatives of the several
underwriters listed on Schedule I thereto, the Company and CWGS Enterprises, LLC (the “Underwriting Agreement”).
This opinion is being furnished in connection with
the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining
to the contents of the Registration Statement or related Prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issue of
the Shares.
As such counsel, we have examined such matters
of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates
and other assurances of officers of the Company and others as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters.
We are opining herein as to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we express no opinion with respect to any other
laws.
Subject to the foregoing and the other matters
set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, when the Shares shall
have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name or on behalf of the purchasers, and have
been issued by the Company against payment therefor (not less than par value) in the circumstances contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement,
the issue and sale of the Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Shares will
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. In rendering the foregoing opinion, we have assumed that the Company will comply with
all applicable notice requirements regarding uncertificated shares provided in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
November 1, 2024
Page 2
This opinion is for your benefit in connection
with the Registration Statement and may be relied upon by you and by persons entitled to rely upon it pursuant to the applicable provisions
of the Act. We consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 1,
2024 and to the reference to our firm contained in the Prospectus under the heading “Legal Matters.” In giving such consent,
we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder.
