Section 8. Entire Agreement.
Unless specifically provided herein, this Agreement contains all of the understandings and representations between the Employee
and the Company pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements,
representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. The parties mutually agree that the
Agreement can be specifically enforced in court and can be cited as evidence in legal proceedings alleging breach of the Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) modify the terms of any outstanding
awards or benefits to Employee under the 2008 Incentive Equity Plan or the 2013 Incentive Equity Plan, the Company’s MSP
Plan or any Restricted Stock Award Agreement between Employee and the Company, or (ii) release any of Employee’s rights

Section

modification is agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. No waiver by
either of the parties of any breach by the other party hereto of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by
the other party hereto shall be deemed a waiver of any similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any prior or
subsequent time, nor shall the failure of or delay by either of the parties in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
operate as a waiver thereof to preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or
privilege.

Section
10. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be enforceable
only if modified, or if any portion of this Agreement shall be held as unenforceable and thus stricken, such holding shall not
affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding upon the parties with
any such modification to become a part hereof and treated as though originally set forth in this Agreement. The parties further
agree that any such court is expressly authorized to modify any such unenforceable provision of this Agreement in lieu of severing
such unenforceable provision from this Agreement in its entirety, whether by rewriting the offending provision, deleting any or
all of the offending provision, adding additional language to this Agreement or by making such other modifications as it deems
warranted to carry out the intent and agreement of the parties as embodied herein to the maximum extent permitted by law. The parties
expressly agree that this Agreement as so modified by the court shall be binding upon and enforceable against each of them. In
any event, should one or more of the provisions of this Agreement be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and if such provision or provisions
are not modified as provided above, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had
not been set forth herein.

Section
11. Captions. Captions and headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are intended solely for
convenience and no provision of this Agreement is to be construed by reference to the caption or heading of any Section or
paragraph.

Section
12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original,
but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Reason” means the occurrence of any of the following, in each case without the Employee’s written consent: (i) a reduction

Section 8. Entire Agreement.
Unless specifically provided herein, this Agreement contains all of the understandings and representations between the Employee
and the Company pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements,
representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. The parties mutually agree that the
Agreement can be specifically enforced in court and can be cited as evidence in legal proceedings alleging breach of the Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) modify the terms of any outstanding
awards or benefits to Employee under the 2008 Incentive Equity Plan or the 2013 Incentive Equity Plan, the Company’s MSP
Plan or any Restricted Stock Award Agreement between Employee and the Company, or (ii) release any of Employee’s rights
to indemnification under any indemnification agreement between Employee and the Company or under the Articles of Incorporation
or bylaws of the Company or under Section 607.0850, Florida Statutes, or any of Employee’s rights to advances or reimbursement
under any directors’ and officers’ liability policies maintained by the Company.

Section
9. Modification and Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified unless such amendment or
modification is agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. No waiver by
either of the parties of any breach by the other party hereto of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by
the other party hereto shall be deemed a waiver of any similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any prior or
subsequent time, nor shall the failure of or delay by either of the parties in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
operate as a waiver thereof to preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or
privilege.

Section
10. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be enforceable
only if modified, or if any portion of this Agreement shall be held as unenforceable and thus stricken, such holding shall not
affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding upon the parties with
any such modification to become a part hereof and treated as though originally set forth in this Agreement. The parties further
agree that any such court is expressly authorized to modify any such unenforceable provision of this Agreement in lieu of severing
such unenforceable provision from this Agreement in its entirety, whether by rewriting the offending provision, deleting any or
all of the offending provision, adding additional language to this Agreement or by making such other modifications as it deems
warranted to carry out the intent and agreement of the parties as embodied herein to the maximum extent permitted by law. The parties
expressly agree that this Agreement as so modified by the court shall be binding upon and enforceable against each of them. In
any event, should one or more of the provisions of this Agreement be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and if such provision or provisions
are not modified as provided above, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had
not been set forth herein.

Section
11. Captions. Captions and headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are intended solely for
convenience and no provision of this Agreement is to be construed by reference to the caption or heading of any Section or
paragraph.

Section
12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original,
but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

and does not intend to file, any charge of discrimination against any of the Released Parties with any federal, state or local
agency and understands that Alico has reasonably relied on his/her representations in this paragraph in agreeing to perform the
obligation set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement. Executive further waives any right to recovery based on any charge of discrimination
filed by him/her or on his/her behalf.
