(Edmundo Gonzalez)

This Executive Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of April 1, 2021 between Marpai Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Edmundo Gonzalez (“Executive”).

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

1.               Employment. Executive’s employment under this Agreement will commence upon the Company’s initial public offering (the “Effective Date”). As of the Effective Date, the Company offers and Executive accepts employment and Executive agrees to perform services for the Company upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The character of Executive’s employment is that of “at will” and may be changed only by a document signed by Executive and an officer authorized by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Executive or the Company may terminate Executive’s employment at any time, subject to the provisions of Section 6 and 7.

2.1.            Service With Company. Executive will serve as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company and shall report to the Board. Executive shall have the authority, duties and responsibilities customarily incumbent upon the CEO of the Company, as may be stated in the Bylaws and/or Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as in effect from time to time, and as otherwise assigned to Executive by the Board or consistent with common practice and industry standards for a CEO of comparable companies. Such additional authority, responsibilities, and duties shall be commensurate with Executive’s position as the CEO. Executive shall comply fully with all applicable laws, rules and regulations as well as with the Company’s policies, compliance manuals and procedures, as the foregoing may be amended or modified from time to time.

2.2.   Service on the Board. During the term of this Agreement, Executive agrees to serve, without additional compensation, in one or more executive positions and/or as a member of the Board of the Company or any affiliate or subsidiary of the Company, as determined by the Company, provided such service does not materially increase the amount of time Executive must devote to the business and affairs of the Company and does not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s ability to perform his primary duties as CEO under this Agreement.

2.3.   Performance of Duties. Executive agrees to serve the Company faithfully and to initially devote his full business time and attention (a minimum of forty (40) hours per week) to the business and affairs of the Company during the term of this Agreement. Executive may perform his duties at the Company’s offices or remotely, as discussed and agreed to between Executive and the Chairman of the Board. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from (i) making and managing passive investments, (ii) taking on consulting engagements, disclosed and approved in advance by the Board and/or (iii) engaging in charitable or other community or non-profit activities, in each case in a manner, and to an extent, that will not interfere with his duties to the Company or pose a conflict with the business of the Company.

3.1.   Salary. Company shall pay Executive a base salary at the initial rate of Three Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $350,000) per year. Executive’s salary shall be reviewed annually by the Board and may be increased at the beginning of each calendar year or at such other times as determined by the Board.

3.2.   Bonus. Executive will be eligible for an annual bonus aware in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. Executive’s bonus award will be determined based upon Company’s financial performance and Executive’s individual performance, and will be determined annually by the Compensation Committee.

3.3.   Other Benefits. Executive shall be eligible to participate in all benefit plans which may be in effect for the Company’s executive employees from time to time, including, without limitation, group health and dental insurance, group life insurance, disability insurance, and 401(k) plans, in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

3.4.  Travel and Business Expenses. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and business expenses in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies then applicable to its senior executives. The Company shall reimburse Executive for business class international and domestic airfare, and Executive shall use his judgement on obtaining reasonably priced tickets. The Company shall reimburse eligible expenses in accordance with its policies promptly and in any event, provided that reimbursement of eligible expenses shall be made no later than December 31st of the calendar year in which such expenses accrued. The CEO shall furnish to the Company such receipts and records as the Company may require to verify the foregoing expenses promptly and generally no later than sixty (60) days from accrual.

3.5.   Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance. As the CEO, you will be covered by the Company’s Directors’ and Officers’ insurance policy. In addition, you will receive indemnification as set forth in the Company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws and subject to a separate indemnification agreement to be entered into between you and the Company.

3.6.   Paid Time Off. Executive shall be entitled to paid time off in accordance with the Company’s vacation policies for senior executive employees, but under no circumstances fewer than twenty days paid time off for each calendar year. Any paid time off taken by Executive shall be taken at such time as is reasonably convenient in relationship to the needs of the business of the Company. Paid time off shall not accrue beyond the year in question; provided, however, that any vacation time not taken during any year due to constraints imposed by the Company's business requirements shall accrue beyond the year in question.

4.    Restrictive Covenants. As the CEO, Executive will be privy to the Company’s proprietary, confidential, and competitively valuable information and trade secrets. In consideration for and as a condition to Executive’s employment, Executive will, on or before the Effective Date, deliver to the Company a “Non- Disclosure, Non-Competition and Assignment of Intellectual Property Agreement,” substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”). Nothing in this agreement is intended to modify or supersede the respective obligations thereunder. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement is hereby incorporated in the entirety by reference.

5.   Severance. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without “Cause,” (as hereinafter defined), or if Executive terminates his employment for “Good Reason”, or following the death or permanent disability of Executive, the Company will continue to pay Executive his base salary then in effect and to provide benefit continuation at Company expense as follows: (i) for a period of six (6) months from the date of termination of employment if Executive prior to the 12-month anniversary of the Effective Date; (ii) for a period of nine (9) months from the date of termination of employment if Executive is terminated on or after the 12-month anniversary of the Effective Date but prior to the 24-month anniversary of the Effective Date; and (iii) for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of termination of employment if Executive is terminated after the 24-month anniversary of the Effective Date. Any severance payable to Executive shall be payable in equal installments in the same manner and in the regular payroll cycle of the Company as other salaried executive employees are paid.

All such severance payments shall include the same deductions from salary as Executive was subject to prior to termination of his employment, including but not limited to, deductions for taxes, FICA and 401k contributions, and Executive shall be entitled to Company match contributions for any such 401k contributions. At any time, Company shall have the right to pay the severance amount or the balance thereof then remaining, in a single lump sum to Executive. Executive will continue to be entitled to any (a) unreimbursed business expenses required to be reimbursed to Executive pursuant to Section 3.4 above; and
