STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT



This STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
(the “Agreement”) is made as of April 15, 2016 (the “Execution Date”), by and
between Prime Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), and George Kaufman
(the “Optionee”), a director of the Company.



W I T N E S S E T H:



In consideration of the
premises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, validity and sufficiency
of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:



1.                 
Grant of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company confirms that it granted to the Optionee
the right (the “Option”) to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of 50,000 (fifty thousand) ordinary
shares of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”).



2.                 
Vesting Schedule. This Option shall vest based on activities and/or services performed, as set out in Addendum A.



3.                 
Exercise Price. The price of each share of Common Stock purchased pursuant to this Option shall be U.S. $2.94.



4.                 
Exercise of Option. The Optionee may exercise the Option, in whole or in part, with respect to any whole number of vested
shares of Common Stock subject to the Option. The Optionee shall exercise the Option by giving the Company written notice, in a
form prescribed by the Company. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased and shall be accompanied
by payment, in U.S. dollars, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or by certified check or by official bank
check, of an amount equal to the Option exercise price per share of Common Stock, multiplied by the number of shares of Common
Stock as to which the Option is being exercised; provided, however, that (i) [this Option may be exercised on a cashless basis,
in whole or in part, in accordance with the Cashless Exercise Formula (as defined below), and (ii) the purchase price may be paid
by the delivery of funds equal to the purchase price by a broker, in accordance with Regulation T promulgated by the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System or as otherwise may be permissible by law. The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”)
may impose from time to time such limitations as it deems appropriate on the exercise of the Option.



For purposes of this
Agreement, the term “Cashless Exercise Formula” means:



N’= (N x (P - E))
/ P

where:

N’ =    the adjusted
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon cashless exercise of the Option.

N =     the current number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option.

E =     the Exercise Price
on the date of cashless exercise of the Option.

P =     the average reported
last sales price of the Common Stock for the last 10 trading days ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice
of cashless exercise is given.

in Section 4, to the broker) a certificate or certificates for such shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Option; provided,
however, that the time of such delivery may be postponed by the Company for such period of time as the Company may require for
compliance with any law, rule or regulation applicable to the issuance or transfer of shares of Common Stock.



6.                 
Payment of Taxes. Prior to or concurrently with delivery by the Company to the Optionee of a certificate or certificate(s)
representing such shares of Common Stock, the Optionee shall, if required by the IRS, upon notification of the amount due, promptly

adjustments as the Board deems appropriate.

Any and all adjustments or actions taken by the Board pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.



11.             
No Restriction on the Right of the Company to Effect Corporate Changes. The Option granted hereunder shall not affect in
