Re: Third Extension of Transition Date
Dear Richard,
Reference is made to that certain letter agreement by and between you and AdaptHealth Corp.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Letter Agreement.
This letter is intended to confirm our mutual agreement with respect to your continued services as the Interim CEO from and after January 1, 2024. By signing below, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that:
