Exhibit 10.04

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT made and entered into this ____ day of _______, 20__ (the "Agreement"), by and between H/Cell Energy Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and ___________ (the "Indemnitee"):

WHEREAS, competent persons are becoming more reluctant to serve corporations as members of the Board of Directors or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance and indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the inability to attract and retain such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company's stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future; and

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; and

WHEREAS, the Indemnitee is willing to serve as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors or designated subsidiaries on the condition that they be so indemnified;

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