Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 1, 2021, the Board
of Directors (the “Board”) of Elys Game Technology, Corp. (the “Company”) approved and adopted an updated form
of indemnification agreement to be entered into by the Company with its directors, executive officers and certain other key employees
(the “Indemnification Agreement”). The Indemnification Agreement will supersede any previous indemnification agreement entered
into by the Company with the respective director, executive officer or other key employee. On June 3, 2021, each current director of the
Company entered into the indemnification agreement.
As
is the case with the Company's previous form of indemnification agreement, the Indemnification Agreement requires the Company to indemnify
the director or officer (“Indemnitee”), to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against all losses, claims, actions,
proceedings, awards, judgments, fines, penalties, liabilities, damages, obligations, costs, charges, legal fees and disbursements and
expenses, including without limitation, all amounts paid to settle any action or satisfy any judgment reasonably incurred by or on behalf
of the Indemnitee in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which the Indemnitee is made a party or
any such proceeding which might be threatened in respect of which the Indemnitee is threatened to be made
a party) by reason of him being or having been a director of officer of the Company or a subsidiary thereof, subject to certain limitations;
provided that the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Company and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct
was unlawful . The indemnification agreement also provides for the advancement of expenses relating to the indemnification obligations,
subject to certain limitations.
The foregoing
summary and description of the provisions of the Indemnification Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the Indemnification Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 with this Current Report on Form
