Re:

Dear
_____________________:


 


JE
Cleantech Holdings Limited (the “Company”), is pleased to offer you a position as a director on its Board of Directors
and as a chair of the _______ Committee and a member of the _____________ 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 __________ Committee and the _____________
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.

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 USD$________ per year on an annual basis (“Director’s
Fee”) for performing your Duties. The Director’s Fee will be fully earned at the beginning of each year in which you serve
as a director, and the Company’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Director’s Fee shall be absolute and unconditional
at the beginning of each year, notwithstanding the fact that payment is being made on an installment basis. The Director’s Fee
shall be payable in monthly installments of USD$_______. 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.

services on the Audit Committee and the Nomination Committee.


 


5.

and directors’ insurance policy with coverage determined annually by the Company and the Board. 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.


 


6.
No Assignment. Because of the personal nature of the services to be rendered by you, this Agreement may not be assigned by
you without the prior written consent of the Company.
