[Signature Page to First Amendment]EWELLNESS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION AND EVOLUTION
PHYSICAL THERAPY, INC. COOPERATIVE OPERATING AGREEMENT

 

OPERATING AGREEMENT

 

THIS COOPERATIVE OPERATING AGREEMENT (hereinafter
“COA”), is made and entered into effective April 1, 2015, by and among: eWellness Healthcare Corporation (hereinafter
“EWC”), a Nevada corporation located at 11825 Major Street, Culver City, California 90230 and Evolution Physical Therapy,
Inc. (hereinafter “EPT”), a California corporation located at 11825 Major Street, Culver City, California 90230 (collectively
referred to in this agreement as the “Parties”). The purpose of this operating agreement is to allow EPT to offer EWC’s
telemedicine exercise platform known as www.phzio.com to selected physical therapy patients of EPT. This COA is not a software
or intellectual property licensing agreement and does not provide any rights or ownership of the www.phzio.com platform or EWC’s
business methods to EPT. The term of this agreement is 5 years with an automatic renewal for an additional 5 years upon consent
by both Parties. The extent of this Operating Agreement becomes null and void and shall be renegotiated
if Darwin Fogt is no longer positioned as CEO of EWC during this term.

 

SECTION 1

OPERATING CAPITAL ADVANCES

 

1.1    Operating
Capital Advances. EWC agrees to provide Operating Capital Advances (hereinafter “OCA”) to EPT in order for EPT
to operate EWC telemedicine platform www.phzio.com and to offer it to selected physical therapy patients of EPT’s. EWC shall
advance the requested capital, via a written Capital Advance Request (hereinafter “CAR”) from EPT to EWC. EWC will
make its best efforts to provide the requested capital within 5 business days of the receipt of any CAR by EPT. No interest will
be charged by EWC for any CAR advances. CAR requests can be made to EWC by EPT for the specific following uses specifically associated
with operating the www.phzio.com platform and associated physical therapy treatments: computer equipment, office and or facilities
monthly rental payments, physical therapist (hereinafter “PT”) and or physical therapy assistant, (hereinafter “PTA”),
administrative staff, patient induction equipment, office supplies, utilities including: power, gas, telephone and internet services,
parking and other associated operating costs. It is assumed that the operation of the www.phzio.com platform by EPT will generate
positive cash flow within 90 days from the start of patient program inductions.

 

SECTION 2

ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES; DISTRIBUTIONS

 

2.1    Profits/Losses. For financial accounting
and tax purposes, the net profits or net losses that are generated by EPT operating EWC’s www.phzio.com platform shall be
determined on an monthly basis and shall be allocated to the Parties in proportion to the following formula: In consideration of
EWC provisioning the phzio.com platform and for making the above noted OCA, EWC shall receive 75% of the Net Patient Insurance
Reimbursements (hereinafter “NPIR”) associated with EPT operating EWC’s www.phzio.com platform and EPT shall
receive 25% of the net patient insurance reimbursements. NPIR is calculated to be gross reimbursements received by EPT though the
use of EWC’s www.phzio.com platform, less any costs associated with operations related to the www.phzio.com platform by EPT.
The initial NPIR payments to EWC will be for the partial or repayments any CAR advances. Once the www.phzio.com platform becomes
cash flow positive, EPT will remit to EWC on the 1st of each month a net profit/loss statement and all NPIR fees that
are due to EWC by EPT. EWC may elect to allow EPT to retain some operating funds in order to smooth out any cash flow needs by
EPT to operate the www.phzio.com platform.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

SECTION 3

INITIAL OPERATING BUSINESS ASSUMPTIONS &
CONFLICT OF INTEREST

 

3.1    Initial Business Operating Assumptions.
The Parties have developed the following Initial Business Operating Assumptions (hereinafter “IBOA”), which created
the basis for executing this COA. The IBOA assume that a majority of EPT www.phzio.com patients (at least for the initial year
of operations) will have PPO insurance that will reimburse for in-office PT visits, and at least initially will not reimburse (insurance
plans will be billed for the telemedicine visits regardless of weather they are reimbursed or not) for the www.phzio.com telemedicine
visits. Thus, www.phzio.com patients will complete 3 on-line www.phzio.com and one in-office PT visits each week during the 26-week
program. It is assumed that at a minimum, EPT initially anticipates that it can induct 80 new patients per month per www.phzio.com
Program Induction Office (hereinafter “PIO”).

 

3.2    Best Effort by EPT and EWC. The
Parties shall make a best-efforts to build the business set out in the IBOA. In the event that the business developed through this
COA is significantly different than the IBOA, then the Parties can mutually agree to change certain provisions of this COA in order
to keep the same dynamics in place for both Parties.

 

3.3    Conflicts of Interest Waiver. It
is understood by the Parties that Darwin Fogt, MPT is the President & CEO of EWC and is President of EPT. Both Parties waiver
this conflict of interest in cooperatively building the IBOA. It is acknowledged by both Parties that due to this conflict and
other issues the percentage of the NPIR is significantly higher for EWC than is anticipated to be earned with other third parties
PT firms that EWC may cooperate with in the future.

 

SECTION 4

INDEMNIFICATION

 

4.1    Indemnification. The Parties shall
indemnify any person who was or is a party defendant or is threatened to be made a party defendant, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Parties)
by reason of the fact that he is or was a Party of the Parties, Manager, employee or agent of the Parties, or is or was serving
at the request of the Parties, against expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually
and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the Parties determine that he acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Parties, and with respect to any criminal
action proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding
by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of “no lo Contendere” or its equivalent, shall not in itself
create a presumption that the person did or did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in the
best interest of the Parties, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his/her
conduct was lawful. EPT agrees to add EWC under its indemnity insurance policies.
