Exhibit 10.2

PAYROLL AND BENEFIT EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT agreement

This Payroll and Benefit Expense Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of November 30, 2022 (this “Agreement”), is by and between PAVmed Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PAVmed”), and Lucid Diagnostics Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lucid Diagnostics”).

WHEREAS, Lucid Diagnostics is a subsidiary of PAVmed; and

WHEREAS, PAVmed desires to pay for certain payroll and benefit-related expenses in respect Lucid Diagnostics personnel on behalf of Lucid Diagnostics, and Lucid Diagnostics desires to reimburse PAVmed for the same.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Covered Expenses

(a) General. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, during the term of this Agreement, PAVmed has paid, and will continue to pay, for certain payroll and benefit-related expenses (“Covered Expenses”) in respect of Lucid Diagnostics personnel on behalf of Lucid Diagnostics, and Lucid Diagnostics desires to reimburse PAVmed for the same.

(b) Records. PAVmed shall maintain appropriate and accurate books and records pertaining to the Covered Expenses it incurs in respect hereof, and will make such books and records available to Lucid Diagnostics and its representatives at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.

2. Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue until such time as either party gives the other party written notice of its election to terminate this Agreement.

3. Reimbursement. Lucid Diagnostics shall reimburse PAVmed for all Covered Expenses paid by PAVmed in respect of Lucid Diagnostics personnel on behalf of Lucid Diagnostics in accordance with the terms hereof. The Covered Expenses shall be reimbursed on a quarterly basis or at such other frequency as the parties may determine, in cash or, subject to approval by the board of directors of each of PAVmed and Lucid Diagnostics, shares of Lucid Diagnostics common stock (which shall be valued at the volume weighted average price of such stock during the final ten trading days preceding the later of the two dates on which such stock issuance is approved by the board of directors of each of PAVmed and Lucid Diagnostics, but in no event shall such shares be valued at a price per share lower than $0.40 (as may be equitably adjusted for stock dividends, subdivisions, combinations, or other similar events affecting the Lucid Diagnostics common stock as a whole)), or a combination of the two. If PAVmed does not notify Lucid Diagnostics of its election as to the form of payment of the Covered Expenses at least sixty (60) days after the end of the quarter in respect of which such payment is due, PAVmed shall be deemed to have elected that the fee for such month be paid in shares of Lucid Diagnostics common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Lucid Diagnostics issue any shares of its common stock to PAVmed in satisfaction of all or any portion of any Covered Expenses if the issuance of such shares of common stock would exceed the maximum number of shares of common stock which Lucid Diagnostics may issue hereunder without breaching Lucid Diagnostics’ obligations under the rules or regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), unless Lucid Diagnostics obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Nasdaq for issuances of shares of its common stock hereunder in excess of such amount. If PAVmed elects for all or any portion of the Covered Expenses to be paid in cash, Lucid Diagnostics may defer payment of all or any portion of the Covered Expenses payable in cash until such time that it has sufficient cash to pay such amount, and in such case any unpaid Covered Expenses shall continue to accrue (without interest) so long as they remain unpaid.

4. Tax Matters.

(a) Lucid Diagnostics will be liable for and will reimburse PAVmed or pay, as applicable, any applicable sales or similar taxes with respect to the Covered Expenses.

(b) If Lucid Diagnostics is required to withhold from any amount owed to PAVmed for any taxes for which PAVmed is responsible, the amount withheld shall be subtracted from the amount owed by Lucid Diagnostics and PAVmed will receive the amount remaining after the tax withheld.

5. Limitation of Liability

(a) General Limitation. PAVmed shall not be liable to Lucid Diagnostics or any other person for any act or omission or any alleged act or omission in connection with its performance of (or failure to perform) its obligations under this Agreement, except where such act or omission or alleged act or omission is finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of PAVmed. In no event shall PAVmed have liability under or in respect of this Agreement in the aggregate in excess of the Covered Expenses actually reimbursed by Lucid Diagnostics.

(b) Force Majeure. PAVmed shall not be liable to Lucid Diagnostics or any other person for any act or omission or any alleged act or omission in connection with its performance of (or failure to perform) its obligations under this Agreement from any cause beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, embargoes, epidemics, war, terrorist acts, riots, insurrections, fires, explosions, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, floods, strikes, and power blackouts.

(c) No Consequential Damages. Neither party shall have any liability to the other party hereunder for any consequential, exemplary, incidental, indirect, prospective, punitive, remote or speculative damages.

(d) Indemnification. Lucid Diagnostics shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless PAVmed, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, actions, fines, penalties, expenses or costs (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by any such Indemnified Person relating to any claim of a third party arising from or in connection with PAVmed’s performance of (or failure to perform) its obligations under this Agreement, except where such performance (or non-performance) is finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(e) Survival. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

The parties expressly authorize the arbitrator to require that all or a portion of the prevailing party’s fees and expenses in the arbitration be allocated to and borne by the other party, if the arbitrator determines that the other party’s positions were sufficiently non-meritorious so as to make such allocation equitable.
