**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

On November 11, 2025, the Company entered into agreements with Emily Humble, the Company's Chief Product Officer, and Thomas Humble, the Company's Chief Experience Officer, setting forth the terms and conditions of the cessation of the Company's employment of Emily Humble and Thomas Humble (collectively the "Separation Agreements"). Pursuant to the Separation Agreements, the employment with the Company of both Emily Humble and Thomas Humble terminated on November 11, 2025. In accordance with the Separation Agreement the Company will pay Emily Humble and Thomas Humble their regular base salary at the annual rate of $320,000 to and through the Termination Date and the Company will reimburse Emily Humble and Thomas Humble for all unreimbursed business expenses incurred per existing Company policies, provided such expenses are or have been submitted for reimbursement to the Company in a manner consistent with Company policy no later than 10 days after the Termination Date.

As consideration for execution, delivery and performance of each of the Separation Agreements, and in exchange for the promises, covenants, releases and waivers set forth herein, the Company will provide Emily Humble and Thomas Humble the following payments and benefits, to which both Emily Humble and Thomas Humble expressly acknowledges they would not otherwise be entitled:

1. Cash Payment. The Company will pay to each Emily Humble and
Thomas Humble as severance pay, less applicable withholdings and deductions, $172,000, which amount is equal to six (6) months of base
salary as of the Termination Date (i.e., $160,000) plus six (6) months of automobile allowance (i.e., $12,000). Such severance pay shall
be paid in six equal consecutive monthly installment payments payable on or before the last day of each applicable calendar month;

2. Equity Issuance. On or before the last day of each calendar
month for six consecutive months beginning May 2026 and ending October 2026, the Company shall issue to each Emily Humble and Thomas
Humble as severance pay, that number of shares of the Company's unregistered common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common
Stock") valued at $32,000, calculated based on the highest closing price of the Common Stock within the 10 days immediately prior
to the applicable issuance; and

3. Payment of COBRA Premiums. If either to each Emily Humble

Date or until any earlier date that they cease to be eligible for continuation of health insurance coverage under COBRA (the "Benefits
Period"), the Company will directly pay to the insurance company the full amount of the COBRA insurance premium for Emily Humble
and/or Thomas Humble.

The cessation of the Company's employment of Emily Humble and Thomas Humble was due to personal reasons and was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. Emily Humble will continue as a member of the Company's Board of Directors.

The Separation Agreements also contain provisions relating to Emily Humble and Thomas Humble providing the Company general releases and agreeing to non-competition, non-interference, non-disparagement and confidentiality.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Cessation of Employment</u>. Employee's employment with the Company terminated effective November 11, 2025 (the "**Termination Date**"). The Company will pay Employee the following, less applicable withholdings and deductions, Employee's regular base salary at the annual rate of $320,000 to and through the Termination Date. Employee's final paycheck will be made on or before the first regularly scheduled pay date following the Termination Date or such earlier date as required by applicable law. Additionally, the Company will reimburse Employee for unreimbursed business expenses incurred per existing Company policies, provided such expenses are or have been submitted for reimbursement to the Company in a manner consistent with Company policy no later than 10 days after the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Severance and Other Enhanced Benefits in Exchange for Signing Agreement</u>. In consideration for Employee's execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and in exchange for the promises, covenants, releases and waivers set forth herein, the Company will provide to Employee the following payments and benefits, to which Employee expressly acknowledges Employee would not otherwise be entitled:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1 <u>Cash Payment</u>. The Company will pay Employee as severance pay, less applicable withholdings and deductions, $172,000, which amount is equal to six (6) months of Employee's base salary as of the Termination Date (i.e., $160,000) plus six (6) months of your automobile allowance (i.e., $12,000). Such severance pay shall be paid in six equal consecutive monthly installment payments payable on or before the last day of each applicable calendar month. The first such installment payment shall be paid on or before the last day of the calendar month in which the Effective Date (as defined in Section 14.9 below) occurs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 <u>Equity Issuance</u>. On or before the last day of each calendar month for six consecutive months beginning May 2026 and ending October 2026, the Company shall issue to Employee that number of shares of the Company's unregistered common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "**Common Stock**") valued at $32,000, calculated based on the highest closing price of the Common Stock within the 10 days immediately prior to the applicable issuance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3 <u>Payment of COBRA Premiums</u>. If Employee elects to continue Employee's or Employee's eligible family members' health insurance coverage under COBRA (see Section 3 below), then, for the 6-month period following the Termination Date or until any earlier date that Employee ceases to be eligible for continuation of health insurance coverage under COBRA (the "**Benefits Period**"), the Company will directly pay to the insurance company the full amount of Employee's COBRA insurance premium. Following the Benefits Period, should Employee elect to continue Employee's or Employee's family members' health insurance coverage, Employee shall be responsible for the entire cost thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>COBRA</u>. Under a separate cover, the Company will inform Employee of Employee's rights to convert and continue existing health insurance coverage, if any, under COBRA following the termination of Employee's employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>No Other Payments and Other Representations</u>. Employee represents, warrants and acknowledges that the Company owes Employee no wages, overtime pay, commissions, bonuses, sick pay, personal leave pay, severance pay, vacation pay or other compensation or benefits or payments or form of remuneration of any kind or nature, other than that specifically provided for in this Agreement. Employee further represents, warrants and acknowledges that Employee (i) has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases; (ii) has been provided and/or has not been denied any leave requested under the Family and Medical Leave Act; and (iii) has never asserted, and is not presently asserting, any claim of sexual harassment or sexual assault against the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>General Release</u>. For good and valuable consideration, including without limitation the payments and benefits provided by Section 2 above, Employee, for and on behalf of Employee and Employee's former and current heirs, executors, administrators, agents, representatives, attorneys, family members, decedents, dependents, affiliates, successors and assigns, hereby voluntarily, knowingly and willingly releases, acquits and forever discharges the Company and its former and current parents, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, and each of their former and current agents, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, trustees, heirs, joint venturers, attorneys, representatives, owners and servants, (collectively, the "**Company Release Parties**") from any and all claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, "**Claims**"), whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that Employee ever had, now has or may have based upon any matter, fact, cause or thing, occurring from the beginning of time up to and including the date Employee executes this Agreement, including, without limitation, all Claims regarding Employee's employment with the Company, any events that may have occurred during the course of Employee's employment or the termination of Employee's employment, or any other matters or Claims of any kind or nature. This includes, without limitation, a release of any Claims for unpaid wages, holiday pay, overtime, bonuses or other compensation, breach of contract, wrongful discharge, disability benefits, life, health and medical insurance, sick leave, or any other fringe benefit, employment discrimination, unlawful harassment, retaliation, emotional distress, violations of public policy, defamation, fraudulent misrepresentation or inducements and severance pay.

This release covers both Claims that Employee knows about, and those that Employee may not know about. By signing this Agreement, Employee is forever giving up Employee's rights to make the aforementioned Claims or demands. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed to alter, limit, or release (i) any claim or right to indemnification and/or contribution Employee may have pursuant to applicable law, the Company's governance instruments or otherwise for acts committed during the scope of Employee's employment with the Company; (ii) coverage, if any, under any Company liability insurance policy; (iii) any claim or right under state unemployment and workers' compensation statutes; (iv) any right Employee may have to a vested benefit under any retirement or welfare plan of the Company; (v) any other claim or right that may not be released by private agreement; and (vi) any claim arising from obligations of the Company to Employee that are expressly set forth in this Agreement.

Employee represents and warrants that Employee has not filed any Claim, lawsuit or charge against any of the Company Release Parties. Employee hereby promises never to file a Claim, lawsuit or charge asserting any Claims that Employee has released in Section 5 above, except that nothing in this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section and Section 5 above, shall prevent Employee from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), or any other federal, state or local agency charged with the enforcement of any laws. However, to the extent any such charge or complaint or any other Claim is made against any of the Company Release Parties (including by the EEOC or NLRB), Employee expressly waives any Claim to any form of monetary or other damages, or any other form of individual recovery or relief in connection with any such charge, complaint or Claim, except that this Agreement does not limit Employee's right to receive an award for information provided to any government agency. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee has not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or transfer, to any person, firm, corporation or entity any Claim or other matter herein released.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Collective/Class Action Waiver</u>. To the extent Employee possesses any Claims notwithstanding the release set forth in Section 5 above, to the extent permitted by law, Employee waives any right or ability to be a class or collective action representative or to otherwise participate in any putative or certified class, collective or multi-party action or proceeding based on any such claim in which the Company or any other Company Release Parties is a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Return of Company Property, Non-Competition, Non-Interference, Non-Disparagement, Confidentiality, and Intellectual Property.</u> Employee acknowledges and hereby reaffirms Employee's continuing obligations to the Company pursuant to the Employment Agreement between the Parties dated December 12, 2023 (the "**Employment Agreement**"), with which obligations Employee acknowledges, represents and warrants Employee has complied and will continue to comply. Such continuing obligations include, without limitation, those set forth in Sections 8(i) (concerning the return of Company property); 10(a) (Non-Competition), 10(b) (Non-Interference with Customers), 10(c) (Non-Interference with Suppliers), 10(d) (Non-Disparagement), 11 (Confidentiality Provisions), and 12 (Acknowledgement and Transfer of Intellectual Property to Company). A copy of the Employment Agreement is annexed hereto, and the surviving terms thereof are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Employee specifically acknowledge and agrees that Employee has returned to the Company all Company property, including, without limitation, that referenced in Section 8(i) of the Employment Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Cooperation</u>. Employee agrees to assist and to cooperate with the Company in connection with the defense or prosecution of any claim that may be made against or by the Company, or in connection with any ongoing or future investigation or dispute or claim of any kind involving the Company, including any proceeding before any arbitral, administrative, judicial, legislative, or other body or agency, including testifying in any proceeding to the extent such claims, investigations or proceedings relate to services performed or required to be performed by Employee, pertinent knowledge possessed by Employee, or any act or omission by Employee. Employee will also perform all acts and execute and deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section. If requested, Employee agrees to provide the Company with reasonable assistance, including, without limitation, providing information, in connection with the transition of Employee's employment duties and responsibilities to others and matters with which Employee was involved during Employee's employment with the Company. The Company will reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses Employee incurs in fulfilling Employee's obligations under this Section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Requests for Information and Testimony</u>. Employee agrees that, in the event Employee is contacted by any person or entity seeking information or testimony from Employee in connection with Employee's or others' employment, duties or activities at the Company (including, without limitation, knowledge Employee came into possession of in connection with Employee's employment with the Company), Employee shall, to the extent permitted by law, (i) prior to providing any such information or testimony and within 4 days of receipt of such request, advise the Company that such information or testimony is sought, (ii) cooperate with the Company and its representatives (including its counsel) in connection with the request for such information or testimony; and (iii) refuse to provide such information or testimony absent legal requirement to do so. If Employee is legally required to comply with such request for information or testimony (*e.g.*, if such request is in the form of a subpoena or other legal process), to the extent permitted by law, Employee shall, and in advance of providing any response and within 4 days of receipt of such request, provide written notice to the Company of such request so that it may seek to assert its rights and interests in connection with such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Employee from providing information to or otherwise cooperating with a governmental or law enforcement organization, without providing notice to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Confidentiality of this Agreement</u>. The terms of this Agreement, including the specific amount paid hereunder, are and shall be kept confidential by Employee and shall not hereafter be disclosed by Employee to any other person or entity, including, without limitation, any current, former or future employees of the Company Release Parties, except (i) as may be required by law; (ii) as may be required by any taxing authority; (iii) to Employee's counsel, accountants, or financial advisors; (iv) as may be required in the performance or enforcement of this Agreement, and (v) to Employee's immediate family members, as necessary, provided in the cases of clauses (iii) and (v), Employee makes the person to whom disclosure is made aware of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and such person to whom disclosure is to be made agrees to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement fully confidential.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Consequences of Employee's Violation of Promises</u>. If Employee breaches this Agreement, including, but not limited to, by filing, bringing or participating in any Claims or actions contrary to Employee's agreements and representations made herein, including, but not limited to, those in Sections 5 and 6 above and Section , in addition to any other rights and remedies the Company may have, (i) Employee will immediately repay to the Company all amounts received by Employee hereunder, except for $100 in consideration for the release in Section 5 above and Employee's other obligations; (ii) Employee shall forfeit all rights to any and all future payments and benefits, if any, to be provided under this Agreement; and (iii) Employee agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Company or any of the Company Release Parties in defending against such Claims or actions brought by Employee or on Employee's behalf and/or in otherwise enforcing the terms of this Agreement. If the Company breaches this Agreement, Employee reserves the right to file a lawsuit against the Company for such breach pursuant to Sections 14.6 and 14.7 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Permissible Disclosures and Statements</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, no provision of this Agreement or the Employment Agreement prohibits Employee from (i) communicating with Employee's attorneys; (ii) making any statement or disclosure required or that may not be prohibited by law; and (iii) reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or regulatory body or making other disclosures that are protected under any law or regulation, including, without limitation, filing a charge or complaint with, or participating, cooperating, or testifying in any action, investigation, or proceeding with, or providing information to, any governmental agency, legislative body, or any self-regulatory organization, including, but not limited to, any law enforcement agency, the US and applicable state attorney generals, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the SEC, or any other state or local commission on human rights, and making other disclosures under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Miscellaneous</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the Parties and fully supersedes any and all prior agreements or understanding between them pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any post-employment restrictive covenants (such as, without limitation, covenants of confidentiality, non-solicitation or non-competition) contained in any other agreement between Employee and the Company, including, without limitation, those in the Employment Agreement**,** shall remain in full force and effect, except to the extent expressly provided by this Agreement. This Agreement may not be altered, modified, amended or changed, in whole or in part, except in writing executed by Employee and Company. The Company and Employee acknowledge and agree that they are not relying on, and they may not rely on, any oral or written representation of any kind that is not set forth in writing in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. However, the invalidity of any such provision shall have no effect upon, and shall not impair the enforceability of the release language set forth in Section 5 above, provided that, upon a finding by a court of competent jurisdiction that the release language found in Section 5 is unenforceable, the Company shall rewrite Section 5 to cure the defect and Employee shall re-execute the release upon request, and Employee shall not be entitled to any additional monies, benefits and/or compensation therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3 <u>Interpretation</u>. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any Party. No provision in this Agreement will be interpreted in favor of, or against, any of the Parties by reason of the extent to which any such Party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular and the plural include one another.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4 <u>No Admission</u>. Nothing contained in this Agreement, nor the fact that the Parties sign this Agreement, shall be considered as an admission of any type by either Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.5 <u>Waiver</u>. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement except by written instrument signed by the Party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.6 <u>Choice of Law and Forum</u>. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

## Exhibit 10.2

**Exhibit 10.2**

**SEPARATION AGREEMENT**

**AND GENERAL RELEASE**

This SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE ("**Agreement**"), dated as of November 11, 2025, is entered into by and between ECD Automotive Design, Inc. (the "**Company**") and Thomas A. Humble ("**Employee**," together with the Company, the "**Parties**" and, each, a "**Party**"). In consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Cessation of Employment</u>. Employee's employment with the Company terminated effective November 11, 2025 (the "**Termination Date**"). The Company will pay Employee the following, less applicable withholdings and deductions, Employee's regular base salary at the annual rate of $320,000 to and through the Termination Date. Employee's final paycheck will be made on or before the first regularly scheduled pay date following the Termination Date or such earlier date as required by applicable law. Additionally, the Company will reimburse Employee for unreimbursed business expenses incurred per existing Company policies, provided such expenses are or have been submitted for reimbursement to the Company in a manner consistent with Company policy no later than 10 days after the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Severance and Other Enhanced Benefits in Exchange for Signing Agreement</u>. In consideration for Employee's execution (without any revocation), delivery and performance of this Agreement, and in exchange for the promises, covenants, releases and waivers set forth herein, the Company will provide to Employee the following payments and benefits, to which Employee expressly acknowledges Employee would not otherwise be entitled:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1 <u>Cash Payment</u>. The Company will pay Employee as severance pay, less applicable withholdings and deductions, $172,000, which amount is equal to six (6) months of Employee's base salary as of the Termination Date (i.e., $160,000) plus six (6) months of your automobile allowance (i.e., $12,000). Such severance pay shall be paid in six equal consecutive monthly installment payments payable on or before the last day of each applicable calendar month. The first such installment payment shall be paid on or before the last day of the calendar month in which the Effective Date (as defined in Section 14.9 below) occurs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 <u>Equity Issuance</u>. On or before the last day of each calendar month for six consecutive months beginning May 2026 and ending October 2026, the Company shall issue to Employee that number of shares of the Company's unregistered common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "**Common Stock**") valued at $32,000, calculated based on the highest closing price of the Common Stock within the 10 days immediately prior to the applicable issuance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3 <u>Payment of COBRA Premiums</u>. If Employee elects to continue Employee's or Employee's eligible family members' health insurance coverage under COBRA (see Section 3 below), then, for the 6-month period following the Termination Date or until any earlier date that Employee ceases to be eligible for continuation of health insurance coverage under COBRA (the "**Benefits Period**"), the Company will directly pay to the insurance company the full amount of Employee's COBRA insurance premium. Following the Benefits Period, should Employee elect to continue Employee's or Employee's family members' health insurance coverage, Employee shall be responsible for the entire cost thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>COBRA</u>. Under a separate cover, the Company will inform Employee of Employee's rights to convert and continue existing health insurance coverage, if any, under COBRA following the termination of Employee's employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>No Other Payments and Other Representations</u>. Employee represents, warrants and acknowledges that the Company owes Employee no wages, overtime pay, commissions, bonuses, sick pay, personal leave pay, severance pay, vacation pay or other compensation or benefits or payments or form of remuneration of any kind or nature, other than that specifically provided for in this Agreement. Employee further represents, warrants and acknowledges that Employee (i) has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases; (ii) has been provided and/or has not been denied any leave requested under the Family and Medical Leave Act; and (iii) has never asserted, and is not presently asserting, any claim of sexual harassment or sexual assault against the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>General Release</u>. For good and valuable consideration, including without limitation the payments and benefits provided by Section 2 above, Employee, for and on behalf of Employee and Employee's former and current heirs, executors, administrators, agents, representatives, attorneys, family members, decedents, dependents, affiliates, successors and assigns, hereby voluntarily, knowingly and willingly releases, acquits and forever discharges the Company and its former and current parents, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, and each of their former and current agents, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, trustees, heirs, joint venturers, attorneys, representatives, owners and servants, (collectively, the "**Company Release Parties**") from any and all claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, "**Claims**"), whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that Employee ever had, now has or may have based upon any matter, fact, cause or thing, occurring from the beginning of time up to and including the date Employee executes this Agreement, including, without limitation, all Claims regarding Employee's employment with the Company, any events that may have occurred during the course of Employee's employment or the termination of Employee's employment, or any other matters or Claims of any kind or nature. This includes, without limitation, a release of any Claims for unpaid wages, holiday pay, overtime, bonuses or other compensation, breach of contract, wrongful discharge, disability benefits, life, health and medical insurance, sick leave, or any other fringe benefit, employment discrimination, unlawful harassment, retaliation, emotional distress, violations of public policy, defamation, fraudulent misrepresentation or inducements and severance pay. Employee is also specifically releasing any rights or Claims Employee may have, if any, under common law or the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ("**ADEA**") (which prohibits discrimination in employment based on age), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 ("**OWBPA**") (which also prohibits discrimination in employment based on age), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Rehabilitation Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Labor Management Relations Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Employment Retirement Income Security Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (to the extent such claims may be lawfully released), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Genetic Information and Non-Discrimination Act, the Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA), the Florida Whistleblower Protection Act (FWA), the Florida Workers' Compensation Law's Retaliation provision, the Florida Wage Discrimination Law, the Florida Minimum Wage Act, the Florida Equal Pay Law, the Florida Omnibus AIDS Act, the Florida Domestic Violence Leave Act, the Florida Discrimination on the Basis of Sickle Cell Trait Law, Florida OSHA, the Florida Constitution, the Florida Fair Housing Act (FHA), Miami-Dade County Code, Chapter 11A, Broward County Human Rights Act, all the above statutes as amended from time to time, and any other federal, state or local laws, rules, ordinances or regulations, whether equal employment laws, rules or regulations or otherwise or any right under any Company pension, welfare, or stock plans. This release covers both Claims that Employee knows about, and those that Employee may not know about. By signing this Agreement, Employee is forever giving up Employee's rights to make the aforementioned Claims or demands. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed to alter, limit, or release (i) any claim or right to indemnification and/or contribution Employee may have pursuant to applicable law, the Company's governance instruments or otherwise for acts committed during the scope of Employee's employment with the Company; (ii) coverage, if any, under any Company liability insurance policy; (iii) any claim or right under state unemployment and workers' compensation statutes; (iv) any right Employee may have to a vested benefit under any retirement or welfare plan of the Company; (v) any other claim or right that may not be released by private agreement; and (vi) any claim arising from obligations of the Company to Employee that are expressly set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>No Pending Lawsuits; No Assignment of Claims</u>. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has not filed any Claim, lawsuit or charge against any of the Company Release Parties. Employee hereby promises never to file a Claim, lawsuit or charge asserting any Claims that Employee has released in Section 5 above, except that nothing in this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section and Section 5 above, shall prevent Employee from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), or any other federal, state or local agency charged with the enforcement of any laws. However, to the extent any such charge or complaint or any other Claim is made against any of the Company Release Parties (including by the EEOC or NLRB), Employee expressly waives any Claim to any form of monetary or other damages, or any other form of individual recovery or relief in connection with any such charge, complaint or Claim, except that this Agreement does not limit Employee's right to receive an award for information provided to any government agency. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee has not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or transfer, to any person, firm, corporation or entity any Claim or other matter herein released. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Employee from challenging the validity of the ADEA or OWBPA waiver herein; however, in the event Employee unsuccessfully does so, Employee may be held liable for the Company's attorney's fees and costs to the same extent that successful defendants are allowed attorney's fees under the ADEA and/or OWBPA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Collective/Class Action Waiver</u>. To the extent Employee possesses any Claims notwithstanding the release set forth in Section 5 above, to the extent permitted by law, Employee waives any right or ability to be a class or collective action representative or to otherwise participate in any putative or certified class, collective or multi-party action or proceeding based on any such claim in which the Company or any other Company Release Parties is a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Return of Company Property, Non-Competition, Non-Interference, Non-Disparagement, Confidentiality, and Intellectual Property.</u> Employee acknowledges and hereby reaffirms Employee's continuing obligations to the Company pursuant to the Employment Agreement between the Parties dated December 12, 2023 (the "**Employment Agreement**"), with which obligations Employee acknowledges, represents and warrants Employee has complied and will continue to comply. Such continuing obligations include, without limitation, those set forth in Sections 8(i) (concerning the return of Company property); 10(a) (Non-Competition), 10(b) (Non-Interference with Customers), 10(c) (Non-Interference with Suppliers), 10(d) (Non-Disparagement), 11 (Confidentiality Provisions), and 12 (Acknowledgement and Transfer of Intellectual Property to Company). A copy of the Employment Agreement is annexed hereto, and the surviving terms thereof are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Employee specifically acknowledge and agrees that Employee has returned to the Company all Company property, including, without limitation, that referenced in Section 8(i) of the Employment Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Cooperation</u>. Employee agrees to assist and to cooperate with the Company in connection with the defense or prosecution of any claim that may be made against or by the Company, or in connection with any ongoing or future investigation or dispute or claim of any kind involving the Company, including any proceeding before any arbitral, administrative, judicial, legislative, or other body or agency, including testifying in any proceeding to the extent such claims, investigations or proceedings relate to services performed or required to be performed by Employee, pertinent knowledge possessed by Employee, or any act or omission by Employee. Employee will also perform all acts and execute and deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section. If requested, Employee agrees to provide the Company with reasonable assistance, including, without limitation, providing information, in connection with the transition of Employee's employment duties and responsibilities to others and matters with which Employee was involved during Employee's employment with the Company. The Company will reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses Employee incurs in fulfilling Employee's obligations under this Section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Requests for Information and Testimony</u>. Employee agrees that, in the event Employee is contacted by any person or entity seeking information or testimony from Employee in connection with Employee's or others' employment, duties or activities at the Company (including, without limitation, knowledge Employee came into possession of in connection with Employee's employment with the Company), Employee shall, to the extent permitted by law, (i) prior to providing any such information or testimony and within 4 days of receipt of such request, advise the Company that such information or testimony is sought, (ii) cooperate with the Company and its representatives (including its counsel) in connection with the request for such information or testimony; and (iii) refuse to provide such information or testimony absent legal requirement to do so. If Employee is legally required to comply with such request for information or testimony (*e.g.*, if such request is in the form of a subpoena or other legal process), to the extent permitted by law, Employee shall, and in advance of providing any response and within 4 days of receipt of such request, provide written notice to the Company of such request so that it may seek to assert its rights and interests in connection with such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Employee from providing information to or otherwise cooperating with a governmental or law enforcement organization, without providing notice to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Confidentiality of this Agreement</u>. The terms of this Agreement, including the specific amount paid hereunder, are and shall be kept confidential by Employee and shall not hereafter be disclosed by Employee to any other person or entity, including, without limitation, any current, former or future employees of the Company Release Parties, except (i) as may be required by law; (ii) as may be required by any taxing authority; (iii) to Employee's counsel, accountants, or financial advisors; (iv) as may be required in the performance or enforcement of this Agreement, and (v) to Employee's immediate family members, as necessary, provided in the cases of clauses (iii) and (v), Employee makes the person to whom disclosure is made aware of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and such person to whom disclosure is to be made agrees to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement fully confidential.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Consequences of Employee's Violation of Promises</u>. If Employee breaches this Agreement, including, but not limited to, by filing, bringing or participating in any Claims or actions contrary to Employee's agreements and representations made herein, including, but not limited to, those in Sections 5 and 6 above and Section , in addition to any other rights and remedies the Company may have, (i) Employee will immediately repay to the Company all amounts received by Employee hereunder, except for $100 in consideration for the release in Section 5 above and Employee's other obligations; (ii) Employee shall forfeit all rights to any and all future payments and benefits, if any, to be provided under this Agreement; and (iii) Employee agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Company or any of the Company Release Parties in defending against such Claims or actions brought by Employee or on Employee's behalf and/or in otherwise enforcing the terms of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply to any Claims that Employee files under ADEA or OWBPA or any challenge that Employee makes to the validity of the ADEA or OWBPA waiver contained in this Agreement. In the event Employee unsuccessfully challenges the validity of the ADEA or OWBPA waiver herein, Employee may be held liable for the Company's attorneys' fees and costs to the same extent that successful defendants are allowed attorneys' fees under the ADEA and/or OWBPA. If the Company breaches this Agreement, Employee reserves the right to file a lawsuit against the Company for such breach pursuant to Sections 14.6 and 14.7 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Permissible Disclosures and Statements</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, no provision of this Agreement or the Employment Agreement prohibits Employee from (i) communicating with Employee's attorneys; (ii) making any statement or disclosure required or that may not be prohibited by law; and (iii) reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or regulatory body or making other disclosures that are protected under any law or regulation, including, without limitation, filing a charge or complaint with, or participating, cooperating, or testifying in any action, investigation, or proceeding with, or providing information to, any governmental agency, legislative body, or any self-regulatory organization, including, but not limited to, any law enforcement agency, the US and applicable state attorney generals, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the SEC, or any other state or local commission on human rights, and making other disclosures under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Miscellaneous</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the Parties and fully supersedes any and all prior agreements or understanding between them pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any post-employment restrictive covenants (such as, without limitation, covenants of confidentiality, non-solicitation or non-competition) contained in any other agreement between Employee and the Company, including, without limitation, those in the Employment Agreement**,** shall remain in full force and effect, except to the extent expressly provided by this Agreement. This Agreement may not be altered, modified, amended or changed, in whole or in part, except in writing executed by Employee and Company. The Company and Employee acknowledge and agree that they are not relying on, and they may not rely on, any oral or written representation of any kind that is not set forth in writing in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. However, the invalidity of any such provision shall have no effect upon, and shall not impair the enforceability of the release language set forth in Section 5 above, provided that, upon a finding by a court of competent jurisdiction that the release language found in Section 5 is unenforceable, the Company shall rewrite Section 5 to cure the defect and Employee shall re-execute the release upon request, and Employee shall not be entitled to any additional monies, benefits and/or compensation therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3 <u>Interpretation</u>. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any Party. No provision in this Agreement will be interpreted in favor of, or against, any of the Parties by reason of the extent to which any such Party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular and the plural include one another.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.5 <u>Waiver</u>. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement except by written instrument signed by the Party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.6 <u>Choice of Law and Forum</u>.

Any dispute concerning or arising out of this Agreement shall be litigated exclusively in an appropriate state or federal court in Miami, Florida and the Parties hereby irrevocably consent and waive any objection to the jurisdiction of any such court.

Each Party agrees that either of them may file a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary, and bargained agreement between Employee and the Company irrevocably to waive trial by jury, and that any dispute or controversy whatsoever between Employee and the Company shall instead be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction by a judge sitting without a jury. This Section shall not affect or limit the scope of any release of claim contained herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.8 <u>Counterparts</u>.
