BOARD OF DIRECTORS AGREEMENT

This Board of Directors Agreement (this "Agreement"), dated as of April 7, 2022 is between Tapinator, Inc., a Delaware corporation, having a principal place of business at 1776 Broadway, Suite 2002, New York, New York 10019 ("Tapinator" or "Company"), and Hilary Herscher, an individual, with a principal address at [____________________________________________________________] ("Director").

BACKGROUND

Tapinator desires to have the benefit of Director's knowledge and experience, and Director desires to provide services to Tapinator as provided in this Agreement. Additionally, as of the date hereof, Company and Director shall enter into a separate Indemnification Agreement to the benefit of Director (the "Indemnification Agreement").

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises set forth in this Agreement, Tapinator and Director hereby agree as follows:

1. Term. This Agreement shall continue for a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter for as long as Director is appointed or elected as a member of the Board of Directors of Company (the "Board") or as otherwise terminated pursuant to this Agreement.

2. Position and Responsibilities.

(a) Position. Company hereby retains Director to serve as a member of the Board. Director shall perform such duties and responsibilities as are normally related to such position in accordance with Company's bylaws, as amended, and applicable law (the "Services"), and Director hereby agrees to use his best efforts to provide the Services. Director shall not allow any other person or entity to perform any of the Services for or instead of Director. Director shall comply with the statutes, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, which are applicable to the performance of the Services, and Company's rules, regulations, and practices as they may from time-to-time be adopted or modified.

(b) Other Activities. Director may be employed by another company, may serve on other boards of directors or advisory boards, and may engage in any other business activity (whether or not pursued for pecuniary advantage), as long as such outside activities do not violate Director's obligations under this Agreement or Director's fiduciary obligations to the shareholders. The ownership of less than a 10% interest in an entity, by itself, shall not constitute a violation of this duty. Except as disclosed in writing by Director to Company, Director represents that, to the best of his knowledge, Director has no outstanding agreement or obligation that is in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, and Director agrees to use his best efforts to avoid or minimize any such conflict and agrees not to enter into any agreement or obligation that could create such a conflict, without the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors. If, at any time, Director is required to make any disclosure or take any action that may conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, Director will promptly notify the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors of such obligation, prior to making such disclosure or taking such action.

(c) No Conflict. Director is not currently engaging in any activity that creates an actual conflict of interest with Company, regardless of whether such activity is prohibited by Company's conflict of interest guidelines or this Agreement, and Director agrees to notify the Board before engaging in any activity that creates a potential conflict of interest with Company. In the event Director engages in any activity that creates an actual conflict of interest with Company without the prior written consent of the Board, a majority of the disinterested members of the Board may vote to terminate this Agreement, remove Director from the Board and immediately cease any compensation under Section 3(a) and 3(b) below to Director; provided, however, Director shall continue to be entitled to expense reimbursement for any expenses incurred prior to the termination of this Agreement and in accordance with Section 3(c) below.

3. Compensation and Benefits.

(a) Director Cash Fee. Director shall be entitled to a quarterly cash payment of $10,000 which shall accrue at the end of each calendar quarter beginning with the second quarter of 2022 and continuing during the term of this Agreement, contingent on the Director's continuing to provide the Services as of each such date.

(b) Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Director for all reasonable business expenses incurred in the performance of his duties hereunder in accordance with Company's expense reimbursement guidelines. Such reimbursement shall include the cost of coach airfare and one night of hotel stay for any board meeting wherein the Company specifically requests that Director shall attend such meeting in person.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in or arising from this Agreement or any statements, policies, or practices of Company, neither Director nor Company shall be required to provide any advance notice or any reason or cause for termination of Director, except as provided in Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, bylaws, as amended, and applicable law.

(c) The Company and Director agree that their obligations under this Section, as well as Sections 4(b), 5(a), 5(b), 6, 7, 8, 9, 13 and 14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

6. Nondisclosure Obligations. Director shall maintain in confidence and shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose or use, either during or after the term of this Agreement, any Proprietary Information (as defined below), confidential information, or trade secrets belonging to Company, whether or not it is in written or permanent form, except to the extent necessary to perform the Services, as required by a lawful government order or subpoena, or as authorized in writing by Company. These nondisclosure obligations also apply to Proprietary Information belonging to customers and suppliers of Company, and other third parties, learned by Director as a result of performing the Services.

Director retains the right to communicate with the SEC and comparable state or local agencies and such communication can be initiated by Director or in response to the government and is not limited by any non-disparagement obligation under this Agreement.
