Appointment of Non-Executive Director to T Stamp Inc. (the "Company") I am pleased to confirm that the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") has approved your appointment as an independent non-executive director of the Company.

This letter of appointment ("Letter") sets out the terms and conditions upon which you agree to serve as Non-Executive Director ("NED") of the Company. These terms and conditions are as follows:

1.Appointment and Duration

1.1.The Company appointed you and you agree to serve as NED of the Company

1.2.With effect from the date of this Letter, your appointment as a NED of the Company shall, subject to earlier termination as provided for in this Letter, continue until terminated by three months’ notice by either party or otherwise in accordance with the bylaws of the Company (the "Bylaws").

1.3.Your appointment is subject to the Bylaws and the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Company (the "Certificate of Incorporation").

1.4.Your continued appointment as NED is subject to election and re-election by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the Bylaws or as otherwise determined by the Board. If the shareholders or Board do not elect or re-elect you as a director, or you are retired from office under the Bylaws, your appointment shall terminate automatically with immediate effect and without compensation for loss of office.

1.5.Continuation of your appointment is also contingent on satisfactory performance and any relevant statutory provisions relating to the removal of a director.

1.6.You may be required to serve on one or more committees of the Board. You will be provided with the relevant terms of reference on your appointment to such a committee. You may also be asked to serve as a non-executive director on the board of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or joint ventures. Any such appointment will be covered in a separate communication.

2.Fees
2.1.The Company will pay an annual fee of:
2.1.1.Forty-one thousand six hundred and ninety-three eight euro (€41,693) pro rata for part of a calendar year payable monthly in arrears in respect of your service as NED of the Company; and
2.1.2.Twenty thousand eight hundred and twenty-seven euro (€20,827) pro rata for part of a calendar year payable monthly in arrears if you are appointed as a member of one or more Committee/s (this sum covers all committee appointments, not per committee).

2.2.All fees will be subject to annual review by the Board, and all are gross, subject to such deductions as are required by law.






2.3.For the avoidance of doubt, during your appointment you will not be entitled to participate in any share option, equity participation or incentive scheme or plan which the Company may operate now or at any time in the future. Your service as a NED will not be pensionable by the Company.

2.4.You will be responsible for payment of income tax and any contributions or other Revenue or social insurance liabilities arising in relation to the fees payable to you hereunder and you agree to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company in respect of any demand (together with interest and penalties) made against it by Revenue or any other body in this regard.

3.Expenses

4.Time Commitment
4.1.You will be expected to devote such time as is necessary for the proper performance of your duties and you should be prepared to spend at least one (1) day per month on company business after the induction phase. This is based on preparation for and attendance at:

At certain times it may be necessary to convene additional Board, committee or shareholder meetings.

4.3.The average time commitment stated in Clause 4.1 will increase should you become a committee member or chair, or if you are given additional responsibilities, such as being appointed as non-executive director on the boards of any of the Company’s subsidiaries.
