Letter of Appointment – Board of Directors


 


Dear Ms. Li:


 


We are pleased to offer you the role as
a director of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Avalon GloboCare Corp. (the “Company”). This letter
contains the terms of your appointment as a director of the Board of Directors of the Company. This letter will be effective from
the date of the signing of this letter.


 


		1.	Your Duties:



 


		a)	You will be expected to attend all meetings (either in
person or by teleconference) of the Board of the Company of which we expect to hold approximately four per annum for the Board
as well as sign all written consents if you deem appropriate. In addition, you will be expected to perform such other duties as
are reasonably contemplated by your holding office as a director of the Company or which may reasonably be assigned to you by
the Board from time to time.



 


		b)	As a director you will:



 


		i)	Perform to the best of your abilities and knowledge the duties reasonably assigned to you by the
Board from time to time, whether during or outside business hours and at such places as the Board reasonably requires;



 


		ii)	Use all reasonable efforts to promote the interests of the Company;



 


		iii)	Attend directors’ meetings;



 


		iv)	Act in the best interests of the Company; and



 


		v)	Work closely with the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer.



 


		c)	As you will appreciate, however, your time commitment
will ultimately be a product of the matters confronting the Company from time to time and matters properly requiring your attention
as a director of the Company.



 


		2.	Remuneration:



 


On January 1 of each year, the Company
shall grant you options to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on an annual basis at exercise price equal
to the closing price on December 31st. The options will vest 25% at the beginning of each quarter and have a term of five years.
As your service as a director will commence on the date set forth above, the option for this year shall be pro-rated. As a result,
for 2019, you shall receive a stock option to acquire 30,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.76 per share for
a term of five years vesting April 1, 2019 with respect to 10,000 shares of common stock and 10,000 shares of common stock thereafter
at the beginning of each quarter during 2019.

Reasonable travel and out of pocket expenses used in connection with the business of the Group shall include:



 


		a)	Domestic and international travel (economy class under
4 hours and business class over 4 hours); and



 


		b)	Hotel accommodation.



 


		4.	Termination of Appointment:



 


		a)	Your appointment as the Director may be terminated
at any time by the vote of the stockholders of the Company in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the
Company.

of the Company terminate your appointment, you will have no claim of any kind against the Company by reason of the termination.



 


		c)	You are at liberty to terminate the appointment at
any time by notice in writing to the Company.



 


		5.	What happens after termination of appointment?



 


If your appointment is terminated for any reason

you as a Director at the date of termination except for amounts the Company is not entitled by law to set off;



 


		b)	You must return all the Company’s property (including property leased by the Company) to the Company
on termination including all written or machine readable material, software, computers, credit cards, keys and vehicles; and



 


		c)	You must not record any confidential information in any form after termination.



 


		6.	Prohibited Activities:



 


		a)	You undertake to the Company that you will not during
the term of your appointment engage in a business or an activity that would place you in a position of conflict in respect of
the performance of your duties.

		b)	The terms of your appointment do not restrict you from accepting appointment as a director of any
other company outside of the Company’s industry, providing consulting services or any other business or other activity whatsoever.
The Company acknowledges and accepts your current roles as a director. You recognize that the services to be performed by you under
the Agreement are special, unique and extraordinary. The parties confirm that it is reasonably necessary for the protection of
the Company’s goodwill that you agree, and accordingly, you do hereby agree and
covenant, that during your term as director, you will not, directly or indirectly, except for the benefit of the Company:



 


		i.	become an officer, director, more than 2% stockholder, partner, associate, employee, owner, proprietor,
agent, creditor, independent contractor, co-venturer or otherwise, or be interested in or associated with any other corporation,
firm or business engaged in the same or any similar business competitive with that of the Company (including the Company’s present
and future subsidiaries and affiliates) (the “Business”); or



 


		ii.	solicit, cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be solicited for or on behalf of himself
or third parties from parties who were customers of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates)
at any time during your term, any business similar to the business transacted by the Company with such customer; or



 


		iii.	accept or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be accepted for or on behalf of your or
third parties, business from any such customers of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates);
or



 


		iv.	solicit, or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be solicited for employment for or on
behalf of you or third parties, any persons who were at any time during your term hereunder, employees of the Company (including
its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or



 


		v.	employ or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be employed for or on behalf of yourself
or third parties, any such employees of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or



 


		vi.	use the tradenames, trademarks, or trade dress of any of the products of the Company (including
its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or any substantially similar tradename, trademark or trade dress likely to
cause, or having the effect of causing, confusion in the minds of manufacturers, customers, suppliers and retail outlets and the
public generally.



 


You acknowledge the intention
that the Company shall have the broadest possible protection of the value of its business consistent with public policy, and it
will not violate the intent of the parties if any court should determine that, consistent with established precedent of the forum
state, the public policy of such state requires a more limited restriction in geographical area or duration of the aforesaid covenant
not to compete, contained in an appropriate decree.


 


		c)	Except as permitted in this Agreement or as approved
by the Company, you will not (i) use any Confidential Information (as defined below) or (ii) disseminate or in any way disclose
the Confidential Information to any person, firm, business or governmental agency or department. You may use the Confidential
Information to perform your Duties for the benefit of Company. You shall treat all Confidential Information with the same degree
of care as you accord to your own confidential information, but in no case shall you use less than reasonable care. You shall
immediately give notice to Company of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. You shall assist Company
in remedying any the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. You agree not to communicate any information
to Company in violation of the proprietary rights of any third party.
