This Limited Release of Claims (hereinafter, this “Release”) is made and entered into as of February 2, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Dennis McIntosh (“McIntosh”) and Alfi, Inc. (the “Company”) (collectively, the “Parties”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, and the Company have entered into that certain letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof, regarding resignation from the Company and the termination of his employment (the “Letter Agreement”);
WHEREAS, McIntosh and the Company have entered into that certain Executive Employment Agreement, dated February 10, 2021, in the form attached as Exhibit 10.8 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-251959) (the “Employment Agreement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and
WHEREAS, this Release shall not be deemed in any manner as an admission, finding, or indication for any purposes whatsoever, that either Party, or any of the Company’s officials, officers, employees, and/or other agents acted contrary to the law or violated the rights of McIntosh or any other person at any time.
Now, therefore, in exchange for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

other time regarding or relating to the tax status of the Final Compensation Payment and that he is not relying in any way upon the Company or Releasees in this regard.
2.LIMITED WAIVER AND LIMITED RELEASE OF CLAIMS
a.In exchange for the foregoing consideration described in Paragraph 1 of this Release, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and except as set forth herein in Paragraphs 2c. and 2d. of this Release, McIntosh, for himself, his spouse, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, and any other agents or representatives, hereby fully and finally releases and discharges the Company, its direct and indirect parents, subsidiaries and/or related entities, and all of their respective present or former employees, attorneys, outside investigators, officers, directors, agents, representatives, and each of them (collectively, “Releasees”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, damages, losses, costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of any kind and every character whatsoever, whether known or unknown, which he has or may have, or may later claim to have had, against one or more of Releasees pursuant to or under the Employment Agreement and/or for any other compensation or financial remuneration due to McIntosh in his capacity as an employee of the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, the “Compensation Claims”).
