▇▇. ▇▇▇,
Dear ▇▇. ▇▇▇:
Vistek Limited (the “Company”), is pleased to offer you a position as a director on its Board of Directors and as a chair of the Compensation Committee and a member of the Audit Committee and Nomination Committee that we intend to form (collectively the “Board”). This letter shall constitute an agreement (the “Agreement”) between you and the Company and contains all the terms and conditions relating to the services you are to provide.
1. Term. This Agreement shall be for the ensuing year, effective as of the date of this Agreement. Your term as director shall continue subject to the provisions in Section 8 below or until your successor is duly elected and qualified. The position shall be up for re-election each year at the annual stockholders’ meeting and upon re-election, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
2. Services. You shall render services as a member of the Board. You shall be required to attend all meetings of the Board called from time to time either in-person or by telephone. You shall be required to attend all meetings of Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and the Nomination Committee either in-person or by telephone. As an independent director, you may also be required to attend at least one (1) meeting with the other independent directors without the presence of the Company’s officers and non-independent directors and to perform such other duties required of the independent directors, including but not limited to submitting relevant documents required of directors by the SEC or Nasdaq. The services described in this Section 2 shall hereinafter be referred to as your “Duties.”
3. Services for Others. You shall be free to represent or perform services for other persons during the term of this Agreement. You agree, however, that you do not presently perform and do not intend to perform, during the term of this Agreement, similar Duties, consulting, or other services for companies whose businesses are or would be, in any way, competitive with the Company (except for companies previously disclosed by you to the Company in writing). Should you propose to perform similar Duties, consulting, or other services for any such company, you agree to notify the Company in writing in advance {specifying the name of the organization for whom you propose to perform such services) and to provide information to the Company sufficient to allow it to determine if the performance of such services would conflict with areas of interest to the Company.
4. Compensation.
4.1. Options. You will be entitled to participate in the Company’s share option scheme as adopted and amended from time to time. The number of options granted, and the terms of those options shall be determined from time to time by a vote of the Board of Directors; provided that you shall abstain from voting on any such resolution or resolutions relating to the grant of options to you.
4.2 Cash Compensation. You will be paid a director’s fee of S$22,000.00 per year (“Director’s Fee”), paid in equal monthly installments for performing your Duties. The Director’s Fee shall be payable in quarterly installments of S$5,500.00 on the last day of each month in which you serve as a director, provided, in each case, that you remain a Director through such payment date and prorated where necessary to the extent cessation of directorship is not on a full month basis. The first installment will be transferred to your account on the first day of your service as a Director, and subsequent installments on last business day of each calendar month thereafter. It is anticipated that the Directors fee will continue for so long as you are a Director and will continue to be paid in monthly increments.
4.3. Cash Reimbursement. You shall be reimbursed for reasonable expenses documented and incurred by you in connection with the performance of your Duties (including travel expenses for meetings you attend in-person).
4.4. Service on Board Committee(s). You will not receive additional compensation (other than the Director’s Fee) for your services on a Board Committee.

The Company agrees to maintain such insurance during the term that you serve as a Director and for two years after you cease to be a director.
