BOARD OF DIRECTORS


SERVICE AGREEMENT


 


This Board of
Directors Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is executed and entered into effective as of January 23, 2020, by and between
Modular Medical, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and William Febbo, an individual (“Director”), with
reference to the following facts:


 


A.           The
Company has requested that Director serve on its Board of Directors as a Non-Executive Director.


 


B.           In
order to induce Director to serve on the Board, the Company has agreed to pay Director the compensation (the “Compensation”)
set forth below and to contractually obligate itself to indemnify Director to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so
that Director will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that Director will not be so indemnified; and
Director has agreed to serve on the Board in consideration of the foregoing.


 


NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Director hereby covenant and agree as follows:


 


1.    Service
By Director.  Director agrees to serve as a non-executive member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”),
for the Term, and in consideration of the Compensation and other terms and conditions of this Agreement set forth below.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Director may at any time and for any reason resign from such position, subject to the provisions of this Agreement
and any contractual or other obligation imposed by operation of law.


 


1.1    Duties. 
As a member of the Board, Director shall perform the duties commonly incident to the office and as set forth in the Company
Bylaws. Director will be expected to:


 


(i)
faithfully, efficiently, competently and diligently perform Director’s duties and exercise such powers as are appropriate
to Director’s role as a non-executive director;


 


(ii)
in so far as reasonably possible, attend all meetings of the Board and of any committees of the Board of which Director is a member;


 


(iii)
promptly declare, so far as Director is aware, the nature of any interest, whether direct or indirect, in any contract or proposed
contract entered into by any member of the Company;


 


(iv)
comply with all reasonable requests, instructions and regulations made or given by the Chairperson of the Board or the Board (or
by any duly authorized committee thereof) and give to the Chairperson or the Board such explanations, information and assistance
as the Chairperson or the Board may reasonably require;


 


(v)
advising the Company in development and implementation of its strategic development and business plans;


 


(vi)
doing all other things reasonably requested and customary for members of the Board of Directors of a company registered under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in order to advance the business and economic interests of the Company and its
shareholders;


 


(vii)
act in the best interests of the Company; and


 


(viii)
use commercially reasonable efforts to promote and extend the interests and reputation of the Company, including assisting the
Board in relation to public and corporate affairs and bringing to bear for the benefit of the Board the Director’s particular
knowledge and experience.


 


As
the Director is to be classified as an independent director, as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, at the
time of appointment, the Director shall promptly inform the Board of any circumstances that would likely affect such independent
status. Duties of committee members will be as set forth in the committee charters and will include attendance of committee meetings.



    	 



    	 



    





1.2    Fiduciary
Duty.  Director acknowledges and agrees that in Director’s capacity as a member of the Board, Director has
a fiduciary duty to the Company and its shareholders.  Accordingly:  


 


1.2.1
Director shall not allow any other person or entity to perform any of Director’s duties for or instead of Director.  Director
shall comply with the statutes, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, which are applicable
to the Company and the performance of Director’s duties, and Company’s rules, regulations, and practices as they may
from time-to-time be adopted or modified.


 


1.2.2
Other Activities. Director may be employed by another company, may serve on other Boards of Directors or Advisory Boards,
and may engage in any other business activity (whether or not pursued for pecuniary advantage), as long as such outside activities
do not violate Director’s obligations under this Agreement or Director’s fiduciary obligations to the Company’s
shareholders. The ownership of more than a 5% interest in an entity, by itself, shall not constitute a violation of this duty.
Director represents that Director has no outstanding agreement or obligation that is in conflict with any of the provisions of
this Agreement, and Director agrees to use Director’s efforts to avoid or minimize any such conflict and agrees not to enter
into any agreement or obligation that could create such a conflict without the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors.
If, at any time, Director is required to make any disclosure or take any action that may conflict with any of the provisions of
this Agreement, Director will promptly notify the Board of such obligation, prior to making such disclosure or taking such action.


 


1.2.3
No Conflict. Director will not engage in any activity that creates an actual conflict of interest with Company, consistent
with the Company’s conflict of interest guidelines or this Agreement, and Director agrees to notify the Board of Directors
before engaging in any activity that could reasonably be assumed to create a conflict of interest with Company. Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 1.2.2 hereof, Director shall not engage in any activity that is in direct competition with the Company
or serve in any capacity (including, but not limited to, as an employee, consultant, advisor or director) in any company or entity
that competes directly or indirectly with the Company, as reasonably determined by a majority of Company’s disinterested
board members, without the approval of the Board of Directors.


 


2.    Term. 
This Agreement shall be effective as of the date first set forth above (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue for
a period of three (3) years thereafter (the “Initial Term”), subject to any lesser term set forth in the Company’s
Bylaws and subject to the election by the Company’s stockholders for each of the three (3) years of such Initial Term or
the death or resignation of the Director. This Agreement will terminate automatically without the necessity of further notice
or action of any kind upon the termination date; provided, however, that following the expiration of the Initial Term, the Director
may be elected to serve on the Board for additional one (1) year terms, subject to the annual approval of the stockholders of
the Company, and in such event it is anticipated that this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, with such modifications
as the parties may deem appropriate from time to time.


 


3.    Compensation.


 


3.1    Annual
Stipend.  Director shall receive an annual stipend in the amount of $10,000.00, payable in four quarterly
installments of $2,500.00 each, in advance on or before the last day of each calendar quarter throughout the Term.


 


3.2    Business
Expenses Reimbursements.  During the term of this Agreement, the Company will reimburse Director promptly for
all reasonable, pre-approved business expenses incurred by Director, whether or not deductible by Company for income tax purposes,
including without limitation, meals, travel, lodging, entertainment, parking, business meetings, and such other business expenses
reasonably incurred by Director in the pursuit and furtherance of the Company’s business.  Such expenses shall
be reimbursed only upon presentation to the Company of appropriate documentation substantiating such expense.


 


3.3    Equity
Compensation.  As additional consideration for the performances of the services and upon approval of the Board, Director
will be granted a Non-Qualified Option (the “Option”) to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s Common
Stock for service as a director and to purchase an additional 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for service as
chairperson of the Compensation Committee of the Board at an exercise price of $2.25 per share (the “Option Shares”).
The terms and conditions of the Option shall be set forth in a separate Notice of Grant and Stock Option Agreement (collectively
the “Stock Option Agreement”) to be provided by the Company.

3.3.1    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if this Agreement terminates prior to full vesting of the Option Shares due to Director’s failure to be re-elected
to the Board or any reason other than (i) Director’s Removal for “Cause,” as defined in the Stock Option
Agreement, (ii) Director’s voluntary resignation or (iii) a change of control of the Company, all unvested Option Shares
shall immediately vest without further notice or action of any kind.  In the event this Agreement terminates prior to
full vesting of the Option Shares due to Director’s removal for “Cause” as defined in the Stock Option Agreement
or (ii) Director’s voluntary resignation, all unvested Option Shares shall immediately be cancelled, as of the effective
date of termination.


 


4.    Protection
of Company Property.


 


4.1    Restriction

or at any time thereafter, use, disclose or permit to be known by any other person or entity, any Confidential Information of
the Company (except as required by applicable law or in connection with the performance of the Director’s duties and responsibilities
hereunder).  If Director is requested or becomes legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information,
Director will give prompt notice of such request or legal compulsion to the Company.  The Company may waive compliance
with this section 4 or will provide Director with legal counsel at no cost to Director to seek an appropriate remedy.

customer lists, commercial arrangements, or any other information relating to the Company’s business that is not generally
known to the public or to actual or potential competitors of the Company (other than through a breach of this Agreement).  This
obligation shall continue until such Confidential Information becomes publicly available, other than pursuant to a breach of this
Section 4 by the Director, regardless of whether the Director continues to be retained by the Company.


 


4.3     Company
Materials.  It is further agreed and understood by and between the parties to this Agreement that all “Company

the Company, and/or upon the request of the Company, all Company Materials, including copies thereof, as well as all other Company
property then in the Director’s possession or control, shall be returned to and left with the Company.


 


5.    Indemnification;

shall enter into an Indemnification Agreement providing for the indemnification of Director by Company on the terms and conditions
set forth in the Indemnification Agreement. The Company has an insurance policy under which
the directors and officers of the Company are insured.


 


6.    Nature

6.1   Not Employee.
This Agreement is not an employment agreement. With the exception of the Option referenced
in Section 3.3 above and any and all benefit plans from time to time in effect for members of the Board generally, if any, the
Director is not entitled to any of the benefits that the Company provides to its employees.
