BurgerFi International, Inc.

Dear Sir or Madam:

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) confirms our conversation concerning [ENTITY]’s engagement by BurgerFi International, Inc. (the “Client” or “Company”).

By executing this Agreement, the Company agrees to engage [ENTITY] to provide [DIRECTOR] to serve as an independent board member (“Independent Director”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). As an Independent Director, [DIRECTOR]’s responsibilities will include, without limitation, the following:

● serve as member of the Board;

● serve a member of the board of directors, board of managers or similar governing body of subsidiaries of the Company as may be requested from time to time;

● participate in all meetings, telephone calls and governance activities of the Board; and,

● consider potential strategic alternatives available to the Company as presented to the Board by management and/or the Company’s advisors and make decisions regarding the same.

For the scope of work outlined above (the “Scope”), [ENTITY]’s fee for [DIRECTOR] to serve as an Independent Director will be $15,000.00 per month (“Fiduciary Fee”) to be paid on the first business day of each month or partial month in which [DIRECTOR] serves as an Independent Director. The total Fiduciary Fees paid to [ENTITY] shall not be less than $90,000.00. If the Company asks [ENTITY] to provide any services other than those of [DIRECTOR] as set forth above (“Additional Services”), [ENTITY] will bill the Company at the rate of $250-$800.00 per hour (“Additional Hourly Fee”). Any Additional Services requested of [ENTITY] will be confirmed in writing by [ENTITY] and the Company in advance of being performed.

The Fiduciary Fee will be paid by the Company monthly, in advance. Expenses will be billed to the Company weekly and will be payable upon receipt. There will be a $15,000.00 retainer paid to [ENTITY] at the execution of this Agreement (the “Retainer”). The Retainer will be held by [ENTITY] and applied to [ENTITY]’s final bill for fees and expenses hereunder. Any unapplied Retainer will be returned to the Company.

To the extent personnel from [ENTITY], other than [DIRECTOR], are providing Additional Services, [ENTITY] may charge for time to travel to and from such meeting or other event at one-half of the applicable hourly rate for such person. The Company will be billed for all actual, reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by [ENTITY] in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Such expenses shall include the cost of reasonable and necessary legal fees incurred to review D&O coverage or resulting from [DIRECTOR]’s service as Independent Director, travel, meals and lodging, delivery services, etc. In states where [ENTITY] is obligated to collect sales taxes related to Additional Services, such taxes will be invoiced to the Company.

Certain additional terms and conditions are attached as an appendix to this agreement. By executing this agreement, the Company acknowledges that it has read and agrees to be bound by each of these terms and conditions, which are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.

If the foregoing accurately sets forth the understanding between us, please so indicate by signing and returning the enclosed copy of this letter to me. By virtue of my signature below, [ENTITY] is committed to providing its best efforts in the areas discussed above.

The Company has the option to cancel this Agreement at any time and for whatever reason upon written or oral notice to [ENTITY]. However, if this Agreement is canceled by the Company, [ENTITY] will be entitled to payment of its fees and expenses incurred through cancellation, and the confidentiality and indemnity provisions of this Agreement will survive cancellation.

I very much appreciate the opportunity to present this agreement to you and look forward to working with you on this assignment.
