agree as follows:


 


1.Separation
of Employment.By signing this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that Employee’s employment relationship with Employer
ended on the Separation Date and that Employee is not entitled to any further wages, commissions, or benefits from Employer after
the Separation Date, except as otherwise provided by this Agreement.


 


2.       Consideration.
In consideration for Employee signing this Agreement, and agreeing to the commitments herein, the Employer agrees to pay Employee:


 


2.1       Severance
Payment. Employer agrees to provide Employee (1) a one-time cash payment of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000), payable upon
the Separation Date; (2) a cash payment of seventy-two thousand dollars ($72,000), payable in twelve equal monthly payments of
$6,000 (the “Monthly Payment”), beginning on August 15, 2020; and (3) two hundred twenty-eight thousand three hundred
and forty-six (228,346) shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents an amount equal to $290,000, at the price

The shares issue pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall not be subject to the Clinigence Holdings, Inc. 2019 Omnibus
Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and such shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and shall bear a legend to that effect. The Severance Payment will be in addition to gross wages of $7,500.00 to be paid
to Employee on the Employer’s next regular payday of July 15, 2020. In addition, Employee shall be permitted to submit for
reimbursement of unpaid expenses, including without limitation, cell phone and internet service costs, not to exceed a total reimbursement
amount of $2,000. Employee shall submit all such reimbursement requests no later than 30 days after the Separation Date.


 


2.2       Vesting
of Equity Awards. Employer agrees that certain stock award as approved by resolution of the Board on June 30, 2020, shall
be awarded to Employee effective prior to the execution of this Agreement and that such award, together with all outstanding equity
awards held by Employee, shall immediately vest effective on the Separation Date in accordance with Section 3(c) of the Employment
Agreement and the Plan such that all securities issued pursuant to such awards shall be fully vested and no longer subject to
forfeiture. Employer shall record the accelerated vesting required by this Section 2.2 on its records and take such further actions
as necessary and appropriate to give full effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.2.


 


2.3       So
long as Employee properly and timely elects and is eligible for continuing healthcare benefits, Employer shall pay twelve (12)
months of Employee’s continuing healthcare coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”).
After that twelve (12) month period, however, Employee will be solely responsible for continuing any such healthcare benefits.


 


2.3
       Sole Financial Obligation. Employee understands and agrees that the monetary
Severance Payment set forth in this Section 2 constitutes the Employer’s sole financial obligation to Employee.

Consequences of the Severance Payment. The monetary severance benefits set forth in Section 2 above will constitute employment-related
income and Employer will include the amount on Employee’s IRS Form W-2 for the taxable years 2020 and 2021 in which the
Severance Payment is paid. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee is solely responsible for any tax liabilities and consequences
that may result from Employee’s receipt of the Severance Payment and agrees that Employer shall bear no responsibility for
any such liabilities or consequences. Employee further agrees that Employer shall not be required to pay, for any reason, any
further sums to Employee, even if the tax liabilities and consequences to Employee are ultimately assessed in a fashion that Employee
does not presently anticipate. Further, if any liability for taxes, interest, or penalties is imposed on the Employer because
of its failure to comply with any federal, state, or local tax laws with regard to the payment of the severance benefits, Employee
will, upon demand by Employer, indemnify and hold Employer harmless from any and all such liability. Employee acknowledges that
Employer has not made any representations to Employee concerning the tax consequences of the Severance Payment.
