Mr. Bamburg attended Southwestern Oklahoma State University on an athletic scholarship where he earned his Bachelor's Degree in Healthcare Administration and his Master of Business Administration from Oklahoma City University. He is board-certified in healthcare management and recognized as a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives.

In connection with his appointment as the Company's Chief Operating Officer, on September 16, 2025, the Company entered into a two (2) year employment agreement with Mr. Bamburg (the "Bamburg Agreement") pursuant to which Mr. Bamburg is entitled to receive a base annual salary of $415,000, subject to annual review by the Company's CEO and Board of Directors.

No severance is payable under the Bamburg Agreement if Mr. Bamburg's employment is terminated by the Company for cause (as defined in the Bamburg Agreement), Mr. Bamburg resigns without good reason (as defined in the Bamburg Agreement) or is unable to perform due to death or disability. Mr. Bamburg is entitled to receive payment of all salary and benefits accrued up to the termination date of his employment upon any termination of employment, unpaid expense reimbursements, and accrued but unused paid time off within thirty (30) days.

Mr. Bamburg will also be eligible to receive an annual cash bonus (the "Annual Bonus") in an amount of up to sixty percent (60%) of his Base Salary. The Annual Bonus will be recommended by the CEO at his discretion and approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Annual Bonus shall be based on a combination of Company-wide and Employee-specific goals, both qualitative and quantitative, to be developed and approved by the CEO and Board of Directors each year.

Mr. Bamburg shall be eligible to participate in the Company's long-term incentive plan that may be available to similarly positioned executives and in the event RSUs' are awarded, such award may be valued up to sixty percent (60%) of his Base Salary.

Mr. Bamburg will receive an additional cash compensation of $100,000 as a signing bonus, payable in four equal quarterly payments of $25,000, provided Mr. Bamburg remains in employment with the Company for a minimum of twelve months.

The foregoing description of the Bamburg Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Bamburg Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

There are no other arrangements or understandings between Mr. Bamburg and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Bamburg was named Chief Operating Officer.

The Company may terminate the Employee's employment if the Employee is disabled and, because of the disability, is unable to perform the essential functions of the Employee's then existing position or positions under this Agreement with or without reasonable accommodation. This provision is not intended to reduce any rights the Employee may have pursuant to any law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Termination by the Company for Cause</u>. At any time during the Term, the Company may terminate the Employee's employment hereunder for Cause.

With respect to the events in (i), (iii) and (iv) herein, the Company shall have delivered written notice to the Employee of its intention to terminate the Employee's employment for Cause, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the circumstances claimed to give rise to the Company's right to terminate the Employee's employment for Cause and the Employee shall not have cured such circumstances to the extent such circumstances are reasonably susceptible to cure as determined by the Board in good faith within thirty (30) days following the Company's delivery of such notice. For avoidance of doubt, "Cause" shall not include (w) below par or below average operational performance, in and of itself; (x) expense reimbursement disputes in which the Employee acts in reasonably good faith; (y) occasional, customary and de minimis use of the Company's property for personal purposes; and (z) acting in good faith upon advice of Company's legal counsel.

At any time during the Term, the Company may terminate the Employee's employment hereunder without Cause by providing the Employee with sixty (60) days advance written notice. Any termination by the Company of the Employee's employment under this Agreement that does not constitute a termination for Cause under <u>Section 4(c)</u> and does not result from the death or Disability of the Employee under <u>Sections 4(a)</u> or <u>4(b)</u> shall be deemed a termination without Cause under this <u>Section 4(d)</u>. Any suspension of the Employee's employment with pay or benefits pending an investigation of alleged improper activities by the Employee that, if determined to be accurate, would-be grounds for a Cause termination, shall not be considered a termination of the Employee's employment without Cause.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Notice of Termination</u>. Except for termination as specified in <u>Section 4(a)</u>, any termination of the Employee's employment shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination by the terminating Party to the other Party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "<u>Notice of Termination</u>" shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)<u>Date of Termination</u>. "<u>Date of Termination</u>" shall mean the earliest of the following: (i) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the Employee's death, the date of the Employee's death; (ii) if the Employee's employment is terminated on account of Disability under <u>Section 4(b)</u> or by the Company for Cause under <u>Section 4(c)</u>, the date on which Notice of Termination is given that follows any applicable required cure period; (iii) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the Company under <u>Section 4(d)</u>, thirty (30) days after the date on which a Notice of Termination is given; or (iv) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the Employee, thirty (30) days after the date of which a Notice of Termination is given or such shorter period agreed to by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Employee gives a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may unilaterally accelerate the Date of Termination, but such acceleration shall nevertheless be deemed a termination by the Employee on the accelerated date for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of determining the time when the lump sum portion of the Severance Amount, if any, is to be paid under

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;- 3 -&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

<u>Section 5(b)(i)</u> of this Agreement, "<u>Date of Termination</u>" means the Employee's separation from service as defined under Section 409A.

With respect to vested compensation or benefits the Employee may have under any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement of the Company, payment will be made to the Employee under the terms of the applicable plan, program, or arrangement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Termination by the Company without Cause</u>. If the Employee's employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in <u>Section 4(d)</u>, or the Employee terminates his employment during the Term, or the Employee terminates employment at the end of the Term after the Company provides notice of intent not to renew pursuant to <u>Section 1</u> for reasons other than would provide grounds for a Cause termination, then the Company shall, through the Date of Termination, pay the Employee his or her Accrued Benefits. If the Employee signs a general release of claims substantially in the form which is attached as <u>Exhibit A</u> to this Agreement) (the "<u>Release</u>") within twenty-one (21) days of the receipt of the form of the Release (extended to forty-five (45) days in the event of a group termination or exit incentive program) and does not revoke such Release during the seven (7) day revocation period:

Accordingly, the Employee agrees that a remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach of the covenants or other obligations in <u>Section 6</u> of this Agreement would be inadequate and that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available, shall be entitled to obtain preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to secure specific performance of such covenants and to prevent a breach or contemplated or threatened breach of this Agreement without the necessity of proving actual damage and without the necessity of posting bond or security, which the Employee expressly waives.

The Employee agrees that each obligation specified in <u>Section 6</u> of this Agreement is a separate and independent covenant that shall survive any termination of this Agreement and that the unenforceability of any of them shall not preclude the enforcement of any other covenants in <u>Section 6</u> of 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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Limitation on Payments</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in <u>Section 3</u> and <u>Section 5</u> of this Agreement, if any payment or distribution that the Employee would receive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise ("<u>Payment</u>") would (a) constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code), and (b) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "<u>Excise Tax</u>"), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Payment are paid to the Employee, which of the following alternative forms of payment would maximize the Employee's after-tax proceeds: (i) payment in full of the entire amount of the Payment (a "<u>Full Payment</u>"), or (ii) payment of only a part of the Payment so that the Employee receives that largest Payment possible without being subject to the Excise Tax (a "<u>Reduced Payment</u>"), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest marginal rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes), results in the Employee's receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment, notwithstanding that all or some portion the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the date the first Payment is due shall make all determinations required to be made under this <u>Section 19</u>. If the independent registered public accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, group or entity effecting the transaction, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such independent registered public accounting firm required to be made hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The independent registered public accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and the Employee at such time as requested by the Company or the Employee. If the independent registered public accounting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Payment, it shall furnish the Company and the Employee with an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Employee that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the Parties.

(t.<u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including, but not limited to, electronically signed or scanned images, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.
