DIRECTOR AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made as of the 9 day of January 2017 by
and between Drone Aviation Holding Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”),
Global Security Innovative Strategies, LLC (“GSIS”) and David V. Aguilar
(“Nominee”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to attract and retain a director who will consent
to serve a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”);

 

WHEREAS, the Nominee is a principal of GSIS and has agreed to serve on the Board
as part of his duties with GSIS; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company believes that Nominee possesses valuable qualifications and
abilities to serve on the Company’s Board.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Service to the Board.

 

(a) Service as a Director. Consistent with his duties as a principal of GSIS,
Nominee consents to serve as a Director of the Company for a term of up to two
(2) years if elected or appointed and, upon re-appointment or election to the
Board of the Company, to serve as a member of the Board of the Company.

 

Nominee agrees that upon appointment or election he will dutifully perform his
responsibilities as a director in good faith, in accordance with applicable law,
and in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, bylaws and other policy
and procedures applicable to such service. Upon appointment to the Board,
Nominee shall resign from the Board of Directors of the Company, upon the
request of the Chief Executive.

 

Nominee understands that this Agreement does not constitute an offer to serve as
a director of the Company, or as an employee, or in any other capacity and that
appointment shall only occur by vote of the Board or shareholders of the
Company. Nominee understands and agrees that if the Company offers Nominee
employment, the Company may request a background check consisting of a criminal
history and other background checks to be used solely for employment-related
purposes and understands an offer and any position will be contingent on the
receipt and evaluation of the background check report.

 

2. Compensation and Expenses.

for directors applicable to Nominee’s appointment, in the event Nominee becomes
a director, and such compensation shall be payable to GSIS as follows:

●100,000 options to purchase the Company’s unregistered common stock at an
exercise price based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the
Appointment Date (the “Options”). The Options shall vest 50% one year from the
Appointment Date and the other 50% two years from the Appointment Date so long
as Nominee is a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Options will be
exercisable at any time after they vest and prior to the four year anniversary
of the Appointment Date. The Option shall be issued in compliance with all rules
and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant
to the terms of a Stock Option Agreement to be provided by the Company. The
Options granted to GSIS shall be in effect subject to Nominee’s continuous
service as a member of the Board. In the event that Nominee’s service is
terminated prior to the two (2) year anniversary of the Appointment Date for any
reason, all unvested options shall be forfeited.

 

(b) Expenses. The Company shall reimburse GSIS for all of Nominee’s reasonable
and necessary out-of-pocket expenses, including travel, incurred in connection

officers’ insurance coverage with a liability limit of $2,000,000 (“D&O
Insurance”). In the event any notice of termination or significant change in
coverage or terms of D&O Insurance are received by the Company, prompt written
notice shall be provided GSIS and Nominee for so long as Nominee serves as a
director of the Company and during any subsequent period during which Nominee
may be entitled to the benefit of such D&O Insurance.

termination for the period necessary for performance.
