2.       Employment Period. This Agreement shall be effective commencing on ___________, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), which Effective Date shall be no later than August 15, 2020. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is not intended to create any contractual rights or obligations concerning the Employee’s employment, other than those contained herein. The Employee will be employed on an “at-will” basis, meaning that either the Employee or the Company may terminate this Agreement at any time in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 and Section 8. The time beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the date of termination of this agreement in accordance with Section 7 or Section 8 is referred to as the “Employment

The Employee shall receive a one-time bonus (the “Start Date Bonus”) of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) payable within two (2) weeks of the Effective Date; provided, however, that the Employee must return the Start Date Bonus in its entirety in the event that (i) the Employee terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7(g) within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date or (ii) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7(a) within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date.

(f)       Annual Bonus. The Employee shall be eligible to receive bonus compensation each year during the Employment Period in accordance with performance criteria and other terms and conditions as established in writing by the Company from year to year and subject to Employee’s employment through the date on which such bonus compensation is paid to the Employee. The target amount of the bonus compensation each year shall be seventy-five percent (75%) of the Employee’s Base Salary then in effect, with the actual amount of the bonus,if any, to be determined in accordance with the written performance criteria and other terms and conditions established from year to year. Such bonus compensation shall be paid to the Employee in a single lump sum payment at the same time as annual bonuses are paid to members of the Company’s senior management.

(g)       Commencement Equity Incentive Grant. The Employee shall receive a long-term incentive opportunity in the form of a number of restricted Class A shares of AdaptHealth Corp., a Delaware corporation (“AdaptHealth Corp.”) equal to (i) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) divided by (ii) the volume weighed average price of the shares of Class A Common Stock of AdaptHealth Corp. traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market for the twenty (20) trading days ending on the day immediately prior to the Effective Date (the “LTI Award”). One-third (1/3) of the LTI Award shall vest annually in equal installments on each of the first three (3) annual anniversaries of the Effective Date, subject to the Employee’s continued employment, in good standing, with the Company under this Agreement from the Effective Date through the relevant vesting date.

Any such grants will be in such form or forms and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee from time to time.

(i)       Code 409A Compliance. It is intended that any payment under this Agreement will comply with (or alternatively be exempt from) Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), and this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed on a basis consistent with such intent. Further, in the event that Section 409A requires that any special terms, provisions, or conditions be included in this Agreement, then such terms, provisions, and conditions shall, to the extent practicable, be deemed to be made a part of this Agreement. In no event shall any payment required to be made pursuant to this Agreement that is considered deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A (and is not otherwise exempt from the provisions thereof) be accelerated or delayed except as permitted by Section 409A. Any payment or installment made under this Agreement and any amount that is paid as a short-term deferral, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), will each be treated as separate payments for purposes of Section 409A. For the purposes herein, the phrase “termination of employment” or similar phrases will be interpreted in accordance with the term “separation from service” as defined under Section 409A if and to the extent required under Section 409A. Any expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement in any calendar year shall not affect any expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other calendar year. The Employee’s rights to reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

4.       Trade Secrets. The Employee agrees that it is in the Company’s legitimate business interest to restrict his disclosure or use of Trade Secrets and Confidential Information relating to the Company or its Affiliates (as defined below) as provided herein, and agrees not to disclose or use the Trade Secrets and/or Confidential Information relating to the Company or its Affiliates for any purpose other than in connection with his performance of his duties to the Company.

Nothing in this Agreement prohibits the Employee from reporting possible violations of federal laws or regulations to any governmental agency or entity, or making other disclosures protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. The Employee does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures, and the Employee is not required to notify the Company that he/she has made such reports or disclosures.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, with respect to the Employee, (i) your act(s) of gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of your employment, (ii) failure or refusal by you to perform in any material respect your duties or responsibilities, (iii) misappropriation (or attempted misappropriation) by you of any assets or business opportunities of the Company, together with any direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company (the “Company Group”), (iv) theft, embezzlement or fraud committed (or attempted) by you, at your direction, or with your prior actual knowledge, (v) your conviction of or pleading “guilty” or “no contest” to, (x) a felony or (y) any other criminal charge that has, or could be reasonably expected to have, an adverse impact on the performance of your duties to the Company or any other member of the Company Group or otherwise result in injury to the reputation or business of the Company or any other member of the Company Group, (vi) any material violation by you of the policies of the Company or any other member of the Company Group including but not limited to those relating to sexual harassment or business conduct, and those otherwise set forth in the manuals or statements of policy of the Company or any other member of the Company Group, (vii) your breach of any restrictive covenant agreement between you and any member of the Company Group, (viii) any act or omission to act by you intended to harm or damage the business, property, operations, financial condition or reputation of the Company or any other member of the Company Group, (ix) your failure to cooperate, if requested by the Company, with any investigation or inquiry into your or the Company Group’s business practices, whether internal or external, including, but not limited to, your refusal to be deposed or to provide testimony or evidence at any trial, proceeding or inquiry, or (x) any chemical dependence by you which adversely affects the performance of your duties and responsibilities to the Company or any other member of the Company Group. If, within ninety (90) days subsequent to your termination for any reason other than by the Company for Cause, the Company determines that your employment could have been terminated for Cause pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv), or (v) of the definition thereof, your employment will be deemed to have been terminated for Cause for all purposes, and you will be required to disgorge to the Company all amounts received pursuant to this letter or otherwise on account of such termination that would not have been payable to you (or that you would have been required to repay) had such termination been by the Company for Cause.

(b)       Effect of Termination by Company for Cause or Termination by Employee without Good Reason. In the event the Employee’s employment under this Agreement is terminated for Cause by the Company as provided in Section 7(a), or in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Employee without Good Reason pursuant to Section 7(g), then the Employee will be entitled to (i) Base Salary through the effective date of termination, (ii) any earned but unpaid bonus compensation, which shall be paid in the normal course for such bonuses as provided in Section 3(e), (iii) any accrued but unused paid annual leave or other paid time off, (iv) any unreimbursed business expenses in accordance with the Company’s policies for which expenses the Employee provides appropriate documentation, and (v) any accrued benefits to which the Employee is then entitled under the terms of the benefit plans (other than severance) then sponsored by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans (collectively, subparts (i) through (v) of this Section 7(b) shall be referred to as the “Accrued Benefits”). Except for the Accrued Benefits, Employee’s rights and the Company’s obligations hereunder shall cease as of the effective date of the termination including, without limitation, with respect to the right to receive Base Salary not yet accrued and all other compensation or benefits provided for in this Agreement, and the Employee shall not be entitled to any further compensation or severance compensation of any kind.

In addition, in the event this Agreement is terminated without Cause by the Company pursuant to this Section 7(c), the Company shall pay the Employee the Accrued Benefits.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon written notice to the Employee, the Company may immediately relieve the Employee of all his duties and responsibilities hereunder and may relieve the Employee of authority to act on behalf of, or legally bind, the Company; provided, however, that no such action taken by the Company under this Section 7(d) shall relieve the Company of its obligation to continue the payment of Base Salary to the Employee, as well as provide all other benefits as described in Sections 3(b) and (c) hereof, through the remainder of the Employment Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Employee’s employment under this Agreement is terminated under the circumstances set forth in Section 7(c) or Section 7(f), the Employee will become entitled to the severance benefits therein set forth.

(e)       Termination by Employee. The Employee may terminate the Employee’s employment under this Agreement for “Good Reason” in accordance with the “Good Reason Process.” For purposes hereof, the term “Good Reason” means, unless approved by the Employee, (i) a breach by the Company of any material provision hereof, (ii) any reduction in the Employee’s Base Salary, (iii) any material diminution of or material adverse alteration of the Employee’s position or authority as of the Effective Date (including in connection with or following a sale of, or other change in control transaction with respect to, the Company); or (iv) a relocation of the Employee’s principal work location to more than fifty (50) miles from his principal work location as set forth in Section 3(d) hereof. “Good Reason Process” means the following series of actions: (i) the Employee reasonably determines in good faith that Good Reason exists, (ii) the Employee notifies the Company in writing of the existence of Good Reason within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of the event that gave rise to the existence of Good Reason, (iii) the Employee cooperates in good faith with the Company’s efforts to remedy the conditions that gave rise to the existence of Good Reason for a period of sixty (60) days following such notice (such 60-day period, the “Cure Period”), (iv) notwithstanding such efforts, Good Reason continues to exist and (v) the Employee terminates his employment within thirty (30) days after the end of the Cure Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company successfully remedies the conditions that gave rise to the existence of Good Reason during the Cure Period, Good Reason shall be deemed not to have existed.

(f)        Effect of Termination by Employee for Good Reason. In the event the Employee terminates this Agreement for Good Reason, the Company shall (i) continue the payment of Base Salary to the Employee, as well as provide all other benefits as described in Sections 3(b) and (c) hereof, for twelve (12) months, and (ii) pay the Employee a yearly bonus for the year of such termination equal to the target amount of the Employee’s yearly bonus for such year, pro-rated for the number of days the Employee was employed with the Company during such year of termination and paid at the same time as the yearly bonuses for such year is otherwise paid to the Company’s senior management.

Any termination under this Section 8 is subject to the provisions of Section 17 hereof

9.       No Conflicts. The Employee has represented and hereby represents to the Company and its Affiliates that the execution, delivery and performance by the Employee of this Agreement do not conflict with or result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any contract, agreement or understanding, whether oral or written, to which the Employee is a party or of which the Employee is or should be aware and that there are no restrictions, covenants, agreements or limitations on his right or ability to enter into and perform the terms of this Agreement, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates from any liability, cost or expense, including attorney’s fees, based upon or arising out of any such restrictions, covenants, agreements, or limitations that may be found to exist. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall include any subsidiary in the case of the Company, and any person or entity directly or indirectly controlled by or controlling the Company.

10.       Non-Competition. The Employee hereby agrees that, during the Employment Period and for a period of one (1) year thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), the Employee will not, directly or by assisting others, within seventy-five (75) miles of the Employee’s current place of employment and, regardless of distance, in any corporate office of a national company or enterprise engaged in the durable medical equipment business, (a) contact, solicit or attempt to solicit any person or entity who is a customer or supplier of the Company as of Employee’s termination date, for purposes of providing products or services that are competitive with the products or services offered by the Company on the Employee’s termination date, (b) provide to any such customer any products or services that are competitive with the products or services offered by the Company on the Employee’s termination date, or (c) otherwise interfere with the relationship between any such customer or supplier and the Company or its Affiliates.

12.      Enforcement. The Employee agrees that any breach of the provisions of this Agreement would cause substantial and irreparable harm, not readily ascertainable or compensable in terms of money, to the Company for which remedies at law would be inadequate and that, in addition to any other remedy to which the Company may be entitled hereunder, and notwithstanding the terms of Section 18 hereof, the Company shall be entitled to temporary, preliminary and other injunctive relief in the event the Employee violates the provisions of this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing, in addition, any other remedies available to the Company for such breach. A waiver by the Company of any breach of any provision hereof shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of a breach of any other provision of this Agreement or of any subsequent breach by the Employee.

Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 4, 5, 6, 10 and 11 hereof are reasonable, and that the Company would not have entered into this Agreement, in the absence of such restrictions, and that any violation of any provision of those Sections will result in irreparable injury to the Company.

EMPLOYEE FURTHER REPRESENTS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) HE HAS BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY TO CONSULT HIS OWN LEGAL COUNSEL IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT, (ii) HE HAS HAD FULL OPPORTUNITY, PRIOR TO EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, TO REVIEW THOROUGHLY THIS AGREEMENT WITH HIS COUNSEL, AND (iii) HE HAS READ AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Employee agrees that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of providing actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from any violation of Sections 4, 5, 6, 10, or 11 hereof, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled. In the event that any of the provisions of Sections 10 or 11 hereof should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law.

13.      Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon (a) the Company, its successors and assigns, and any company with which the Company may merge or consolidate or to which the Company may sell substantially all of its assets, and (b) Employee and his executors, administrators, heirs and legal representatives. Since the Employee’s services are personal and unique in nature, the Employee may not transfer, sell or otherwise assign his rights, obligations or benefits under this Agreement.

14.      Notices. Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed to have been effectively made or given if in writing and personally delivered, or sent properly addressed in a sealed envelope postage prepaid by certified or registered mail, or delivered by a reputable overnight delivery service.

15.      Severability. It is expressly understood and agreed that although the Company and the Employee consider the restrictions contained in this Agreement to be reasonable and necessary for the purpose of preserving the goodwill, proprietary rights and going concern value of the Company, if a final determination is made by arbitration or any court having jurisdiction that any provision contained in this Agreement is invalid, the provisions of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent as such arbitral body or court may determine or indicate to be reasonable. Alternatively, if the arbitral body or court finds that any provision or restriction contained in this Agreement or any remedy provided herein is unenforceable, and such restriction or remedy cannot be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained therein or the availability of any other remedy. The provisions of this Agreement shall in no respect limit or otherwise affect the Employee’s obligations under any other agreements with the Company.

16.      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures hereto may be facsimiles or electronically scanned copies which shall have the same full force and effect as a manually signed original thereof.

17.      Effects of Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 or Section 8 or expires by its terms, the provisions of Sections 4 -6 and 10-20 of this Agreement shall survive and continue in full force and effect for the period stated in such Section or for one (1) year if no period is stated.

18.      Governing Law/Jurisdiction/Mediation. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania. The Company and the Employee consent to the exclusive in personam jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in connection with any claim, dispute, or interpleader action arising under or in connection with this Agreement, or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder. If any action in connection with such a claim is commenced against the Company or the Employee in any court, the Company and the Employee also agree that service of process may be made on the Company and the Employee by certified or registered mail addressed to the Company and the Employee at their respective addresses specified above. All disputes arising between the parties to this Agreement, or their respective agents, employees, directors, officers, members, equity owners, heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, shall be submitted to mandatory mediation prior to the commencement of any litigation in any court (other than for injunctive relief). Mediation shall be commenced by a party sending notice of a request for mediation to the other party with the nature of the dispute and the identity of one or more potential mediators. The other party shall respond within fourteen (14) days of the receipt of the mediation notice, acknowledging receipt of the mediation request and notice of acceptance of one of the identified potential mediators or delivery of a list of one or more other potential mediators. Mediation shall be confidential and nothing that occurs, is exchanged, or is otherwise discussed or said may be used in any subsequent legal proceeding except as provided under applicable rules of evidence; provided, however, that any evidence previously disclosed or known by a party, or otherwise discoverable or admissible had the mediation not occurred, and not created solely for the purpose of the mediation, shall not be rendered confidential, inadmissible or non-discoverable solely as a result of its use in the mediation. Mediation shall be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The mediator shall be selected jointly, may not have a conflict of interest that is not waived by all parties, and shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by the Company and fifty (50%) by the Employee unless otherwise agreed at the mediation. In the event the parties are unable to agree on a mediator, each party shall select one (1) mediator and the names shall be submitted to the Company’s accountant in alphabetical order by the Employee (without any disclosure or indication by either party as to which party proposed the respective mediators), and the accountant shall select one of such mediators, which decision of the accountant shall be final. The parties agree that any statute of limitations or similar defense shall be tolled curing the period of the mandatory mediation process hereunder. Mediation shall be deemed terminated at any time that either the Company or the Employee gives the other party notice that the mediation is concluded or terminated, or if the mediation is not concluded within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the date of a party’s request for mediation.
