Employment Agreement by and between La Rosa Holdings Corp. and Alex Santos, dated January 10, 2022

(b) Restriction on Competition. Executive agrees that if Executive were to become employed by, or substantially involved in, the business of a competitor of the Company during the Restricted Period (defined below), it would be very difficult for the Executive not to rely on or use the Company’s trade secrets and confidential information. Thus, to avoid the inevitable disclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential information, and to protect such trade secrets and confidential information and the Company’s relationships and goodwill with customers, during the Restricted Period (defined below), the Executive will not directly or indirectly through any other person or entity engage in, enter the employ of, render any services to, have any ownership interest in, nor participate in the financing, operation, management or control of, any competitor of the Company in the United States or globally.

(c) Non-Solicitation of Clients by Executive. Executive agrees that for so long as Executive is employed by the Company and continuing for three (3) years thereafter (such period is referred to as the “Restricted Period”) Executive shall not solicit or attempt to solicit the business of any customers or clients of the Company with respect to services that the Company performs for such customers or clients regardless of how or when the Executive first obtained business from or provided services to such customers or clients.

(d) Non-Solicitation of Employees. Executive agrees that during the Restricted Period not to directly or indirectly, by sole action or in concert with others, induce or influence, or seek to induce or influence any person who is currently engaged by the Company at the time of the termination of Executive’s employment as an employee, agent, independent contractor, or otherwise to leave the employ of the Company or any successor or assign, or to hire any such person.

(e) Non-Disparagement. During Executive’s employment with the Company and at any time thereafter, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in any conduct or make any statement, whether in commercial or noncommercial speech, disparaging or criticizing in any way the Company, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, customers or agents or any products or services offered by any of them, nor shall Executive engage in any other conduct or make any other statement that could be reasonably expected to impair the goodwill of any of them.

(f) Understanding of Covenants. (i) Executive acknowledges that, in the course of his employment with the Company, he has become familiar, or will become familiar, with the Company’s trade secrets and with other confidential and proprietary information concerning the Company and that his services have been and will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. The Executive agrees that the foregoing covenants set forth in this Section 6 (together, the “Restrictive Covenants”) are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s trade secrets and other confidential and proprietary information, good will, stable workforce, and customer relations.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of Executive’s agreement in the preceding paragraph, the Executive (A) represents that he is familiar with and has carefully considered the Restrictive Covenants, (B) represents that he is fully aware of his obligations hereunder, (C) agrees to the reasonableness of the length of time, scope and geographic coverage, as applicable, of the Restrictive Covenants, (D) agrees that the Company currently conducts business throughout the United States and in certain foreign countries, and (E) agrees that the Restrictive Covenants will continue in effect for the applicable periods set forth above in this Section 6 regardless of whether Executive is then entitled to receive severance pay or benefits from the Company. Executive understands that the Restrictive Covenants may limit his ability to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company, but he nevertheless believes that he has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other benefits as an employee of the Company and as otherwise provided hereunder or as described in the recitals hereto to clearly justify such restrictions which, in any event (given his education, skills and ability), Executive does not believe would prevent him from otherwise earning a living. Executive agrees that the Restrictive Covenants do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the detriment of the Executive.

(g) Remedies for Breach of Covenants. (i) In the event that a Restrictive Covenant shall be deemed by any court to be unreasonably broad in any respect, it shall be modified in order to make it reasonable and shall be enforced accordingly; provided, however, that in the event that any court shall refuse to enforce any of the Restrictive Covenants, then the unenforceable covenant shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purpose of those proceedings to the extent necessary to permit the remaining covenants to be enforced so that the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Section 6 shall not be affected thereby.

(ii) Executive acknowledges that any breach of the Restrictive Covenants may cause irreparable harm to the Company which will be difficult if not impossible to ascertain, and the Company shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief, against any actual or threatened breach hereof, without bond and without liability should such relief be denied, modified or vacated. Neither the right to obtain such relief nor the obtaining of such relief shall be exclusive of or preclude the Company from any other remedy the Company or may have hereunder or at law or equity.

7. Termination. This Agreement and the employment of Executive shall terminate upon the occurrence of the following events.

(a) Death or Disability. This Agreement and the employment of Executive shall terminate upon the death of Executive or the finding by the Company’s Board that the Executive has a Disability. “Disability” means a physical or mental impairment), which as reasonably determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board, prevents Executive from performing the essential functions of Executive’s position for a period of either (x) ninety one (91) days or more in any one hundred twenty (120) consecutive day period or (y) one hundred eighty (180) days or more in any twelve (12) month period.

No finding of Cause shall be effective unless and until the Board votes to terminate Executive’s employment for Cause at a Board meeting or by unanimous written consent.

8. Effect of Termination.

(a) All Terminations Other Than by the Company Without Cause. If Executive’s employment is terminated under any circumstances other than a termination by the Company without Cause (including a voluntary termination by Executive or a termination by the Company for Cause or due to Executive’s death or Disability), the Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall immediately cease and Executive shall only be entitled to receive: (i) the Salary that has accrued and is unpaid and to which Executive is entitled as of the effective date of such termination and to the extent consistent with general Company policy, to be paid in accordance with the Company’s established payroll procedure and applicable law but no later than the next regularly scheduled pay period; (ii) unreimbursed business expenses for which expenses the Executive has timely submitted appropriate documentation; (iii) any bonus earned and approved by the Board but not yet paid; (iv) any amounts or benefits to which Executive is then entitled under the terms of the benefit plans then-sponsored by the Company in accordance with their terms (and not accelerated to the extent acceleration does not satisfy Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”)) (the payments described in this sentence, the “Accrued Obligations”).

(b) Termination by the Company Without Cause. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or in the event of a Change in Control of the Company (whether or not the Executive is retained by a successor entity), the Company shall: (i) pay to Executive, in a single lump sum on the Payment Date (as defined below) an amount of $100,000 (the “Severance Benefits”).

(c) Release. As a condition of Executive’s receipt of the Severance Benefits, Executive must execute and deliver to the Company a severance and release of claims agreement in a customary form to be provided by the Company (which shall include a release of all releasable claims, reaffirmation of continuing obligations, and confidentiality and reasonable cooperation obligations, but shall not expand Executive’s then-existing restrictive covenants or impose restrictive covenant obligations on the Executive that do not then exist) (the “Severance Agreement”), which Severance Agreement must become irrevocable within sixty (60) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment (or such shorter period as may be directed by the Company). The Severance Benefits will be paid or commence to be paid in the first regular payroll beginning after the Severance Agreement becomes effective, provided that if the foregoing sixty (60) day period would end in a calendar year subsequent to the year in which the Executive’s employment ends, the Severance Benefits will not be paid or begin to be paid before the first payroll of the subsequent calendar year (the date the Severance Benefits commence pursuant to this sentence, the “Payment Date”). Executive must not materially breach the Confidentiality Agreement or the Severance Agreement in order to be eligible to receive or continue receiving the Severance Benefits and any post severance breach will subject the Executive to a claw back of such Severance Benefits.
