EXPLANATORY
NOTE
This
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed by LifeMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Registrant”).
This
Registration Statement includes a prospectus (the “Reoffer Prospectus”) prepared in accordance with General Instruction C
of Form S-8 and in accordance with the requirements of Part I of Form S-3. This Reoffer Prospectus may be used for the reoffer and resale
of 2,038,750 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) on a continuous or delayed
basis that may be deemed to be “restricted” or “control securities” within the meaning of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, that are issuable to certain
of our employees, executive officers and directors identified in the Reoffer Prospectus. The number of shares of Common Stock included
in the Reoffer Prospectus represents shares of Common Stock issuable to the selling stockholders pursuant to equity awards, including
stock options and restricted stock units, granted to the selling stockholders and does not necessarily represent a present intention
to sell any or all such shares of Common Stock.
PART
I
INFORMATION
REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS
The
information specified in Item 1 and Item 2 of Part I of this Registration Statement is omitted from this filing in accordance with the
provisions of Rule 428 under the Securities Act and the introductory note to Part I of Form S-8. The documents containing the information
specified in Part I will be delivered to plan participants as required by Rule 428(b)(1).
2,038,750 Shares of Common Stock Offered by Selling Stockholders
This
reoffer prospectus (“Reoffer Prospectus”) relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders named
in this Reoffer Prospectus (the “Selling Stockholders”), or their permitted transferees, of up to 2,038,750 shares
of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of LifeMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Common Stock”), which are issuable
to each Selling Stockholder pursuant to awards granted by the Company to the Selling Stockholders under (i) the LifeMD,
Inc. Amended and Restated 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), including stock options and restricted stock
units, (ii) certain agreements with directors of LifeMD, Inc. (the “Director Agreements”) or (iii) certain agreements
and arrangements with executive officers and employees of LifeMD, Inc. (the “Employee Agreements”).
We are not offering any shares of Common Stock and will not
receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus. The
Selling Stockholders are certain of our employees and certain of our directors and executive officers, each of whom is an “affiliate”
of our company (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)).
Subject
to the satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby pursuant to the terms of the relevant award
agreements, the Selling Stockholders may from time to time sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the shares of Common
Stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus through underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers (or a single purchaser) or through broker-dealers
or agents. If underwriters or dealers are used to sell the shares of Common Stock, we will name them and describe their compensation
in a prospectus supplement. The shares of Common Stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, prevailing market prices
at the time of sale, prices related to the prevailing market prices, varying prices determined at the time of sale or negotiated prices.
We do not know when or in what amount the Selling Stockholders may offer the shares of Common Stock for sale. The Selling Stockholders
may sell any, all or none of the shares of Common Stock offered by this Reoffer Prospectus. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning
on page 12 for more information about how the Selling Stockholders may sell or dispose of the shares of Common Stock covered by
this Reoffer Prospectus. The Selling Stockholders will bear all sales commissions and similar expenses. We will bear all expenses of
registration incurred in connection with this offering, including any other expenses incurred by us in connection with the registration
and offering that are not borne by the Selling Stockholders.
Shares
of Common Stock that will be issued pursuant to restricted stock units and stock options granted to Selling Stockholders will be “restricted
securities” or “control securities” under the Securities Act before their sale under this Reoffer Prospectus. This
Reoffer Prospectus has been prepared for the purposes of registering the shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act to allow for
future sales by Selling Stockholders on a continuous or delayed basis to the public without restriction.
Our
Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LFMD.”
We
are a “smaller reporting company” under federal securities laws and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.
Investing
in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading
“Risk Factors” on page 5 of this Reoffer Prospectus and under similar headings in the documents that are incorporated
by reference into this Reoffer Prospectus, as well as “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page 3
of this Reoffer Prospectus.
Neither
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined
if this Reoffer Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The
date of this Reoffer Prospectus is December 21, 2023.

should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Reoffer Prospectus. We have not authorized any other
person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely
on it. Neither we nor the Selling Stockholders are making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale
is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this Reoffer Prospectus is accurate only as of the date hereof.
Additionally, any information we have incorporated by reference in this Reoffer Prospectus is accurate only as of the date of the document
incorporated by reference, regardless of the time of delivery of this Reoffer Prospectus or any sale of securities. Our business, financial

refer to LifeMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries, unless otherwise specified.

All

We
caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Reoffer Prospectus. You should

Overview
LifeMD,
Inc. is a direct-to-patient telehealth company providing patients a high-quality, cost-effective, and convenient way of accessing comprehensive,
virtual healthcare. We believe the traditional model of visiting a doctor’s office, traveling to a local pharmacy, and returning
for follow up care or prescription refills is complex, inefficient, and costly, and discourages many individuals from seeking much needed
medical care. LifeMD, Inc. is positioned to elevate the healthcare experience through telehealth with our proprietary technology platform,
affiliated provider network, broad treatment capabilities, and unique ability to nurture patient relationships.
The
LifeMD, Inc. telehealth platform seamlessly integrates a clinician-centric electronic medical record (“EMR”) system, proprietary
algorithms for case-load balancing and scheduling, customer relationship management (“CRM”) functionality, remote and in-home
lab testing, and digital prescription capabilities, patient-provider audio/video interfacing, cloud pharmacy fulfillment, and more. Our
proprietary technology platform, combined with our 50-state affiliated provider network, enables the management of virtual treatment
offerings and complex patient journeys for hundreds of conditions spanning men’s and women’s health, dermatology, urgent,
and primary care, chronic care management and more. Our telehealth offerings in general seek to connect patients to licensed providers
for diagnoses, virtual care, and prescription medications when appropriate. We also offer over-the-counter (“OTC”) products
that are complementary to the conditions we treat. Our virtual primary care services are primarily offered on a subscription basis.
Our
mission is to empower people to live healthier lives by increasing access to high quality and affordable virtual and in-home healthcare.
We believe our success has and will continue to be attributable to an amazing patient experience, retaining the highest-quality providers
in the industry, and our end-to-end technology platform. We plan to build a diverse portfolio of differentiated telehealth service offerings
that meet the needs of a growing and diversified patient base.
Since
inception, we have helped approximately 803,000 customers and patients, providing them greater access to high-quality, convenient, and
affordable care in all 50 states. Total revenue from recurring subscriptions is approximately 93%. In addition to our telehealth business,
we own 73.32% of WorkSimpli, which operates PDFSimpli, a rapidly growing software as a service platform for converting, signing, editing,
and sharing PDF documents. This business has seen 65% year-over-year revenue growth, with recurring revenue of 100%.
The
mailing address of our principal executive office is located at 236 Fifth Avenue, Suite 400, New York, New York 10001,
and can be reached by telephone at (866) 351-5907.
The
Offering
This
Reoffer Prospectus relates to the public offering, which is not being underwritten, by the Selling Stockholders listed in this Reoffer
Prospectus, of up to 2,038,750 shares of Common Stock issuable to each Selling Stockholder pursuant to awards granted by the Company
to the Selling Stockholder under the Director Agreements, the Employee Agreements or the Plan, including stock options and restricted
stock units. Subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby pursuant to the terms
of the relevant award agreements, the Selling Stockholders may from time to time sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of
the shares of Common Stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus through underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers (or a single purchaser)
or through broker-dealers or agents. We will receive none of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock by the Selling
Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders will bear all sales commissions and similar expenses in connection with this offering. We will
bear all expenses of registration incurred in connection with this offering, as well as any other expenses incurred by us in connection
with the registration and offering that are not borne by the Selling Stockholders.
RISK
FACTORS
Investing
in shares of our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks we have described below and
under Part I, Item 1A: “Risk
Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as updated under Part II, Item 1A:
“Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September
30, 2023, together with all the other information appearing in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before deciding
to invest in our Common Stock. If any of the events or developments we have described occur, our business, financial condition, or results
of operations could be materially or adversely affected. As a result, the market price of our Common Stock could decline, and investors
could lose all or part of their investment. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only risks and uncertainties that
we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business
operations. The risks we have described also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from
those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
The
Selling Stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares of Common Stock, and such sales may be made at prevailing
market prices or at privately negotiated prices. See “Plan of Distribution” below for more information.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We
will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.
SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS
The
table below sets forth information concerning the resale of the shares by the Selling Stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds
from the resale of the shares by the Selling Stockholders.
The

the resale of shares by this Reoffer Prospectus; (ii) the number of shares (and the percentage, if 1% or more) of Common Stock owned

Information
concerning the Selling Stockholders may change from time to time and, if necessary, we will amend or supplement this prospectus accordingly.

prospectus or acquire additional shares of Common Stock. The total number of shares that may be sold hereunder will not exceed the number
of shares offered hereby. Please read the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in this Reoffer Prospectus.

Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Our
bylaws provide for indemnification by us of our directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation
may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed
actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer,
employee or agent to the corporation. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights
to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise. Each director has entered into a Director Agreement which includes indemnification provisions.
Our
amended certificate of incorporation provides that, to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, no director shall be personally liable
to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as director. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation
to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or
its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s
duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions,
or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
The
shares of Common Stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus are being registered by the Company for the account of the Selling Stockholders.
The shares of Common Stock offered may be sold from time to time directly by or on behalf of each Selling Stockholder in one or more
transactions on Nasdaq or any other stock exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed at the time of sale, in privately negotiated
transactions, or through a combination of such methods, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing
market prices, at fixed prices (which may be changed) or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may sell shares through one or
more agents, brokers or dealers or directly to purchasers. Such brokers or dealers may receive compensation in the form of commissions,
discounts or concessions from the Selling Stockholders and/or purchasers of the shares or both. Such compensation as to a particular
broker or dealer may be in excess of customary commissions.
In
connection with their sales, a Selling Stockholder and any participating broker or dealer may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commissions they receive and the proceeds of any sale of shares may be deemed to be
underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the shares
of Common Stock. Any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the shares will be borne
by the Selling Stockholders or other party selling such shares. Sales of the shares must be made by the Selling Stockholders in compliance
with all applicable state and federal securities laws and regulations, including the Securities Act. In addition to any shares sold hereunder,
Selling Stockholders may sell shares of Common Stock in compliance with Rule 144. There is no assurance that the Selling Stockholders
will sell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby. The Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify any broker,
dealer or agent that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares against certain liabilities in connection with the offering
of the shares arising under the Securities Act. We have notified the Selling Stockholders of the need to deliver a copy of this Reoffer
Prospectus in connection with any sale of the shares of Common Stock.
The
anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares of Common Stock and activities of the Selling
Stockholders, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders and
any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of
Common Stock to engage in passive market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. Passive market making involves
transactions in which a market maker acts as both our underwriter and as a purchaser of shares of Common Stock in the secondary market.
All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in
market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock.
Once
sold under the registration statement of which this Reoffer Prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable
in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Our
bylaws provide for indemnification by us of our directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation
may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed
actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer,
employee or agent to the corporation. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights
to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise. Each director has entered into a Director Agreement which includes indemnification provisions.
Our
amended certificate of incorporation provides that, to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, no director shall be personally liable
to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as director. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation
to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or
its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s
duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions,
or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Item
7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
The
securities offered under the Resale Prospectus were issued by the Company to the Selling Stockholders did not involve any underwriters,
underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering. The Company relied upon the exemption from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Regulation D promulgated
by the SEC under the Act.
The
Selling Stockholders are directors, officers and employees of the Company who have represented that they can bear the economic risk of
an investment in the Common Stock for an indefinite period of time, have had an opportunity to ask questions about the offering of the
Common Stock and about the Company, and understand that the investment in the Common Stock involves a high degree of risk.

Item
9. Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement; and
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b)
The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that
a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New York, NY, on December 21, 2023.

STOCK
OPTION AGREEMENT
THIS
AGREEMENT is entered into this 2nd day of January, 2017 between ImmuDyne, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and
John R. Strawn (“Option Holder/Holder”).
WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of the Company has this day authorized the issuance of the option set forth below to Option Holder.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties do hereby agree as follows:
1.
Issuance of Option. The Company hereby issues to Option Holder an option (the “Option”) pursuant to which Option Holder
shall have the right and option to purchase from the Company all or any part of an aggregate of 500,000 (five hundred thousand) shares
of the common stock of the Company, $.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), which shares shall consist of authorized
but unissued shares or issued shares reacquired by the Company.
2.
Option Price. The option or purchase price payable by Option Holder in exercise of the Option shall be $0.40 (forty cents) per share.
The option price shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.
3.
Exercise Period/Term. The Option may only be exercised prior to the date it terminates. Any portion of the Option which remains unexercised
on the tenth anniversary (these options have a ten year term) of the date hereof shall expire.
4.
Exercise of Option/Net Issue Cashless Exercise. The Option Holder may exercise the option by presentation and surrender of this Option
to the Company at its corporate office or at the office of its stock transfer agent. In lieu of exercising this option the Option Holder
may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this option by surrender of this option to the Company together with notice of such
election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Option Holder a number of shares computed using the following formula:
X=Y
(A-B)
A
Where
X = the number of the Shares to be issued to the Holder
Y
= the number of Shares purchasable under this Option
A
= the fair market value on date of determination
B
= the per share Exercise Price of $0.40
The
Company shall cause to be issued one or more certificates for the Option Shares in such denominations as are requested for delivery to
the Option Holder, and the Company shall thereupon deliver such certificates to the Option Holder.
The
Option Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise. The Company may
require the Option Holder to make such representations, and may place legends on the certificates to permit the option shares to be
issue without registration.
The
Company shall pay any and all stock transfer and similar taxes which may be payable in respect to the issuance of the Option shares.
5.
Rights as a Stockholder. The Option holder shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to this Option unless and until certificates
for shares of Common Stock are issued.
6.
Changes in the Company’s Capital Structure.
(a)
The existence of the Option shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any
or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or
any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting
the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part
of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
(b)
If, while the Option remains outstanding, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other increase or reduction
in the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding without receiving compensation therefor in money, services or property, then
(i) in the event of an increase in the number of such shares outstanding, the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to the Option
hereunder shall be proportionately increased; and (ii) in the event of a decrease in the number of such shares outstanding the number
of shares then subject to the Option hereunder shall be proportionately decreased.
(c)
After a merger of one or more corporations into the Company, or after a consolidation of the Company and one or more corporations in
which the Company shall be the surviving corporation, the holder of the Option shall, at no additional cost, be entitled upon exercise
of the Option to receive (subject to any required action by stockholders) in lieu of the number of shares as to which the Option shall
then be so exercisable, the number and class of shares of stock, other securities or consideration to which such holder would have been
entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the agreement of merger or consolidation if, immediately prior to such merger or consolidation,
such holder had been the holder of record of a number of shares of the Company equal to the number of shares as to which the Option had
been exercisable.
(d)
If the Company is about to be merged into or consolidated with another corporation or other entity under circumstances where the Company
is not the surviving corporation, or if the Company is about to sell or otherwise dispose of substantially all of its assets to another
corporation or other entity while the Option remains outstanding, then the Board of Directors will direct that any of the following shall
occur:
(i)
If the successor entity is willing to assume the obligation to deliver shares of stock or other securities after the effective date of
the merger, consolidation or sale of assets, as the case may be, the holder of the Option shall be entitled to receive, upon the exercise
of the Option and payment of the option price, in lieu of shares of Common Stock, such shares of stock or other securities as the holder
of the Option would have been entitled to receive had the Option been exercised immediately prior to the consummation of such merger,
consolidation or sale, and the terms of the Option shall apply as nearly as practicable to the shares of stock or other securities purchasable
upon exercise of the Option following such merger, consolidation or sale of assets; and/or
(ii)
The Board of Directors may cancel the Option as of the effective date of any such merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided that
prior notice of such cancellation shall be given to the holder of the Option at least 30 days prior to the effective date of such merger,
consolidation or sale of assets, and the holder of the Option shall have the right to exercise the Option in full immediately prior to,
and contingent upon, the effective date of such merger, consolidation or sale of assets.
(e)
Except as herein provided, the issuance by the Company of Common Stock or any other shares of capital stock or securities convertible
into shares of capital stock, for cash, property, labor done or other consideration, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof
shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock then subject to the Option.
7.
Agreement. Holder expressly and specifically agrees that the issuance of Options is special incentive compensation which shall not
be taken into account as “wages” or “salary” in determining the amount of payment or benefit to the Option holder.
8.
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Option. If this Option is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may on such terms
as to indemnify or otherwise as it may in its discretion (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Option, include the surrender thereof)
issue a new Option of like denomination and tenor as, and in substitution for, this Option.t
9.
Attorney’s Fees. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provisions of this Option, or where any provision hereof
is validly asserted as a defense, the successful party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements
in addition to the costs and expenses and any other available remedy.
10.
Governing Law. This option shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
11.
Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts each of which shall be deemed to be an original but
all of which together shall constitute but one instrument.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement ts executed and entered Into effective on the day and year first a bore expressed.

Covenant Against Solicitation of Customers. Employee agrees that during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years
immediately following termination of this Agreement, Employee shall not, on his own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm, partnership,

to the selling or providing of any program, product or service competitive or potentially competitive with any program, product, equipment
or service sold or provided or under development by the Company during a period of two (2) years immediately preceding termination of
this Agreement, provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6 shall apply only to customers or prospects of the

actions prohibited by this section shall not be engaged in by Employee, directly or indirectly, whether as manager, owner, sales or service
representative, agent, engineer, technician or otherwise. Employee hereby confirms and acknowledges that the covenant set forth in this
Section is reasonable, appropriate and necessary to protect the interest of the Employer and will not cause undue hardship on Employee.
7.
Covenant against Competition. Employee hereby expressly covenants and agrees that Employee will not during the Term of this Agreement
engage in any activity in competition with the business activities of Employer. Employee further agrees that for a period of two (2)
years immediately following termination of this Agreement, within a fifty

shall be challenged in court and Employee is not enjoined from breaching any of the protective covenants contained in Sections 5, 6,
7 or 8 hereof, then if a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the challenged protective covenant is enforceable, the time periods
described in the challenged Section(s), or Paragraph(s), shall be deemed tolled upon the filing of the lawsuit in which the enforceability
of the covenant is challenged until the dispute is finally resolved and all applicable appeal rights have expired.
10.
Attorney Fee Indemnification for Enforcement of the Provisions of this Contract. The parties hereto agree that if either party is
forced to engage the services of an attorney at law to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement and is successful in so enforcing

prevailing party in bringing such an action to enforce said provisions.

12.
General
12.1
Employee acknowledges and warrants that his breach of any of the provisions contained in Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof would result
in irreparable damage and injury to Employer which injury could not be adequately compensated by money damages or other legal remedies.
Accordingly, in the event of such a breach of any of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof, in addition to any remedies which
may be available to Employer, Employer may seek equitable relief for such breaches, including, without limitations, an injunction or
an order for a specific performance. If Employer seeks to enjoin Employee from breaching any such provision of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8,
Employee hereby waives the defense that Employer has or will then have an adequate remedy at law. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed
to limit Employer’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Employee of any provision of this Agreement which may be pursued
or availed by Employer. Furthermore, nothing in this Paragraph 12.1 or otherwise contained in this Agreement shall limit, abridge or
modify the rights of Employer in and to its trade secrets and confidential information under any applicable trade secret, trademark,
patent, unfair competition or other law of the United States or any other jurisdiction.
12.2
This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto, and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements,
and understandings. Nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to require the commission of any act contrary to law and wherever
there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any present or future statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter
shall prevail, but in such event the provision of this Agreement affected shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary
to bring it within legal requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any compensation or other
monies payable hereunder shall be in excess of the amount permitted by any such statute, law, ordinance, or regulation, payment of the
maximum amount allowed thereby shall constitute full compliance by Company with the payment requirements of this Agreement.
12.3
No representation, promise, or inducement has been made by either party that is not embodied in this Agreement, and neither party
shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, or inducement not so set forth.
12.4
The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their heirs, legal representatives, successors,
and assigns. This Agreement, and Employee’s rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by Employee. Company may assign
its rights, together with its obligations, hereunder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its business and assets. Company may also assign this Agreement to any affiliate of Company; provided, however, that no such assignment
shall (unless Employee shall so agree in writing) release Company of liability directly to Employee for the due performance of all of
the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement to be complied with and performed by Company. The term “affiliate”,
as used in this agreement, shall mean any corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity controlling, controlled by or under common
control with Company. The term “control” (including “controlling”, “controlled by”, and “under
common control with”), as used in the preceding sentence, shall be deemed to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the
power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity, whether
through ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise.
12.5
This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms or covenants hereof may be waived,
only by a written instrument executed by both of the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. The
failure of either party at any time or times to require performance of any provisions hereof shall in no manner affect the right at a
later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or covenant contained in this Agreement, whether
by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any
such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other term or covenant contained in this Agreement.
12.6
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements to be wholly
performed therein.
12.7
The parties hereto expressly agree that it is not the intention of the parties hereto to violate any public policy, statutory or
common law rules, regulations, treaties or decisions of any government or agency thereof. If any provision of this Agreement is judicially
or administratively interpreted or construed as being in violation of any such provision, such articles, sections, paragraphs, sentences,
words, clauses or combinations thereof shall be inoperative in such jurisdiction and the remainder of this agreement shall remain binding
upon the parties hereto and in full force and effect.
12.8
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED
WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE BUYER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

NON-QUALIFIED
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
EMPLOYEE
THIS
NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) entered into as of the October 8, 2021 (the “Memorial
Date”), by and between LifeMD, Inc. (the “Company”) and John V. McMillin IV (the “Optionee”),
memorializing the prior grant of a stock option to Optionee on November 16, 2019 (the “Grant Date”) as reflected in the prior
Employment Agreement, attached as Exhibit A.
WHEREAS,
pursuant to the authority of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), the Company previously granted the Optionee the
right to purchase common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”) of the Company pursuant to stock options,
at not less than 100% of fair market value.
NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.
Grant of Non-Qualified Options. The Company hereby memorializes the prior irrevocable grant to the Optionee, as a matter of separate
agreement and not in lieu of salary or other compensation for services, the right and option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate
of 60,000 shares of authorized but unissued or treasury common stock of the Company (the “Options”), reflecting the
terms and conditions of such grant as set forth herein. The Options are not intended to be Incentive Stock Options as defined by Section
422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
2.
Price. The exercise price of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Options granted hereunder was previously determined to
be 20,000 options with an exercise price of $2.50; 20,000 options with an exercise price of $5.00; and 20,000 options with an exercise
price of $7.50.
3.
Vesting.
| (a) | The
Options shall vest as follows subject to the terms herein and the Optionee continuing to
perform services for the Company on each applicable vesting date. |
20,000
options shall vest on October 1, 2020 with an exercise price of $2.50
20,000
options shall vest on October 1, 2021 with an exercise price of $5.00
20,000
options shall vest on October 1, 2022 with an exercise price of $7.50
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Options shall vest upon the termination of the Optionee’s employment with the Company without Cause (if termination
is by the Company) or for Good Reason (if termination is by Optionee), as such terms are defined in the employment agreement of such
Optionee or if such term or terms is not defined in the employment agreement or there is not an employment agreement, as defined in Section
10 of this Agreement. In lieu of fractional vesting, the number of Options shall be rounded up each time until fractional Options are
eliminated.
(b)
Subject to Sections 3(c) and 4 of this Agreement, Options may be exercised by providing to the Company the Notice of Option Exercise
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B after vesting and remain exercisable until 5:30 p.m. New York time on the date that is
the fifth (5th) year anniversary of the Grant Date.
(c)
However, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, at the option of the Board in its sole and absolute discretion, all Options
shall be immediately forfeited in the event any of the following events occur:
(i)
The Optionee purchases or sells securities of the Company without written authorization in accordance with the Company’s insider
trading policy then in effect, if any;
(ii)
The Optionee (A) discloses, publishes or authorizes anyone else to use, disclose or publish, without the prior written consent of the
Company, any proprietary or confidential information of the Company, including, without limitation, any information relating to existing
or potential customers, business methods, financial information, trade or industry practices, sales and marketing strategies, employee
information, vendor lists, business strategies, intellectual property, trade secrets or any other proprietary or confidential information
or (B) directly or indirectly uses any such proprietary or confidential information for the individual benefit of the Optionee or the
benefit of a third party;
(iii)
During the term of employment and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, the Optionee disrupts or damages, impairs, or interferes
with the business of the Company or its Affiliates by recruiting, soliciting, or otherwise inducing any of their respective employees
to enter into employment or other relationship with any other business entity, or terminate or materially diminish their relationship
with the Company or its Affiliates, as applicable;
(iv)
During the term of employment and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, the Optionee solicits or directs business of any person or
entity who is (A) a customer of the Company or its Affiliates at any time or (B) solicited to be a “prospective customer”
of the Company or its Affiliates, in any case either for such Optionee or for any other person or entity. For purposes of this clause
(v), “prospective customer” means a person or entity who contacted, or is contacted by, the Company or its Affiliates
regarding the provision of services to or on behalf of such person or entity; provided that the Optionee has actual knowledge
of such prospective customer;
(v)
The Optionee fails to reasonably cooperate to affect a smooth transition of the Optionee’s duties and to ensure that the Company
is apprised of the status of all matters the Optionee is handling or is unavailable for consultation after termination of employment
of the Optionee if such availability is a condition of any agreement to which the Company and the Optionee are parties;
(vi)
The Optionee fails to assign all of such Optionee’s rights, title, and interest in and to any and all ideas, inventions, formulas,
source codes, techniques, processes, concepts, systems, programs, software, computer data bases, trademarks, service marks, brand names,
trade names, compilations, documents, data, notes, designs, drawings, technical data and/or training materials, including improvements
thereto or derivatives therefrom, whether or not patentable or subject to copyright or trademark or trade secret protection, developed
and produced by the Optionee used or intended for use by or on behalf of the Company or the Company’s clients;
(vii)
The Optionee acts in a disloyal manner to the Company, such as making comments, whether oral or in writing, that tend to disparage or
injure (i) the reputation or business of the Company or its Affiliates, or is likely to result in discredit to, or loss of business,
reputation, or goodwill of, the Company or its Affiliates or (ii) its directors, officers, or stockholders; or
(viii)
A finding by the Board that the Optionee has acted against the interests of the Company or in a manner that has or may have a detrimental
effect on the Company.
(d)
For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means with respect to a person or entity, any other person or entity controlled
by, in control of or under common control with, such person or entity, and “controlled,” “controlled by,” and
“under common control with” shall mean direct or indirect possession of the power to direct or cause the direction of management
or policies (whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise) of a person or entity.
4.
Representations and Warranties; Acknowledgements. In connection with the grant of the Award Shares hereunder, Optionee represents
and warrants to the Company that:
(a)
Optionee is able to bear the economic risk of Optionee’s investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time because the
Award Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.
(b)
Optionee and Optionee’s advisers have had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions
of the offering of the Shares as Optionee and Optionee’s advisers have requested and have had full and free access and opportunity
to inspect, review, examine, and inquire about such other information concerning the Company and its subsidiaries as they have requested.
Optionee and Optionee’s advisers have also been provided an opportunity to review and ask questions about the Options.
(c)
Optionee has had an opportunity to consult with independent legal counsel regarding Optionee’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement, and fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein. Optionee is not relying on the Company or any of its Optionees,
agents, or representatives with respect to the legal, tax, economic, and related considerations of an investment in the Shares. Optionee
understands that in the future the Shares may significantly increase or decrease in value, and the Company has not made any representation
to the Optionee about the potential future value of the Shares.
(d)
Optionee understands and agrees that the investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk and that no guarantees have been made
or can be made with respect to the future value of the Award Shares or the future profitability or success of the Company.
5.
Termination of Employment. Upon Optionee’s termination of employment, all unvested Options shall be automatically and irrefutably
forfeited. For purposes of this Agreement, terms like “employed” and “termination of employment” refer to employment
with the Company and all Affiliates of the Company.
(a)
If for any reason, except death or disability as provided below, the Optionee terminates employment, the Optionee shall have the right
within three (3) months from the date of termination to exercise the Optionee’s vested Options, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c)
hereof.
(b)
If the Optionee shall die while employed, such Optionee’s estate, or any Transferee (as defined hereinafter) shall have the right
within twelve (12) months from the date of death to exercise the Optionee’s vested Options, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof.
For the purpose of this Agreement, “Transferee” shall mean an individual to whom such Optionee’s vested Options
are transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
(c)
If the Optionee shall become disabled while employed within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, the three-month period referred
to in Section 5(a) of this Agreement shall be extended to one year.
6.
Profits on the Sale of Certain Shares; Redemption. If any of the events specified in Section 3(c) of this Agreement occur within
one (1) year from the last date the Optionee performed services for which the Options were granted (the “Termination Date”),
all profits earned from the sale of the Company’s securities, including the sale of shares of Common Stock underlying the Options,
during the two (2) year period commencing one (1) year prior to the Termination Date shall be forfeited and forthwith paid by the Optionee
to the Company within ten (10) days after the Optionee receives written demand from the Company for such payment and a copy of the documentation
of the sale, including, without limitation, the purchase price therefor. Further, in such event, the Company may at its option redeem
shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Options by payment of the exercise price to the Optionee. The Company’s rights
under this Section 6 do not lapse one year from the Termination Date but are a contract right subject to any appropriate statutory limitation
period.
7.
Transfer. No transfer of the Options by the Optionee by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to
bind the Company unless the Company shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of the letters testamentary or such
other evidence as the Board may deem necessary to establish the authority of the estate and the acceptance by the Transferee or Transferees
of the terms and conditions of the Options.
8.
Method of Exercise. The Options shall be exercisable by a written notice in the manner and form identified on Exhibit B hereto
which information shall include:
(a)
state the election to exercise the Options, the number of shares to be exercised, the natural person in whose name the stock certificate
or certificates for such shares of Common Stock is to be registered and such person’s address and social security number (or if
more than one, the names, addresses and social security numbers of such persons);
(b)
contain such representations and agreements as to the holder’s investment intent with respect to such shares of Common Stock as
set forth in Section 12 hereof;
(c)
be signed by the person or persons entitled to exercise the Options and, if the Options are being exercised by any person or persons
other than the Optionee, be accompanied by proof, satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of the right of such person or persons to
exercise the Options; and
(d)
be accompanied by full payment of the purchase, or exercise price and all applicable required tax withholding in United States dollars
in cash or by bank or cashier’s check, certified check, or money order or (i) by executing a “sell-to-cover cashless exercise”
through the Company’s designated broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of proceeds from the sale of shares having
a fair market value equal to the purchase price and all applicable required tax withholding on the date of exercise; (ii) by executing
a “net cashless exercise” by having the Company withhold Option shares equivalent in value to the exercise price and all
applicable required tax withholding; or (iii) by tendering shares of Common Stock equivalent in value to the exercise price and all applicable
required tax withholding, subject to applicable securities laws and share holding period requirements necessary to avoid a charge to
the Company’s earnings for financial accounting purposes.
Any
certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock as to which the Options shall be exercised shall be registered in the name of
the person or persons exercising the Options.
9.
Sale of Shares Acquired Upon Exercise of Options. If the Optionee is an officer (as defined by Section 16(b) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Section 16(b)”), any shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired pursuant
to Options granted hereunder cannot be sold by the Optionee, subject to registration or an exemption from registration such as to Rule
144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), until at least six (6) months
elapse from the date of grant of the Options, except in the case of death or disability or if the grant was exempt from the short-swing
profit provisions of Section 16(b).
10.
Definitions; Adjustments; Sale Event.
(a)
“Cause” shall mean (i) the Optionee’s dishonest statements or acts with respect to the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company, or any current or prospective customers, suppliers, vendors, or other third parties with which such entity does business;
(ii) the Optionee’s commission of (A) a felony or (B) any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty, or fraud;
(iii) the Optionee’s failure to perform his assigned duties and responsibilities to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company
which failure continues, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, after written notice given to the Optionee by the Company; (iv) the
Optionee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or insubordination with respect to the Company or any affiliate of the Company;
or (v) the Optionee’s material violation of any provision of any agreement(s) between the Optionee and the Company relating to
non- competition, non-solicitation, non-disclosure and/or assignment of inventions.
(b)
“Good Reason” shall mean (i) a material diminution in the Optionee’s base salary except for across-the-board salary
reductions similarly affecting all or substantially all similarly situated employees of the Company or (ii)
if remote work is not approved by Optionee’s direct supervisor, a change of more than 100 miles in the geographic location at which
the Optionee provides services to the Company, so long as the Optionee provides at least 90 days’ notice to the Company following
the initial occurrence of any such event and the Company fails to cure such event within 30 days thereafter.
(c)
Subject to Section 10(d) hereof, if, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split, or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock, the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased
or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new
or different shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares or other
securities, in each case, without the receipt of consideration by the Company, or, if, as a result of any merger or consolidation, or
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the outstanding shares are converted into or exchanged for other securities
of the Company or any successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), the Committee shall make an appropriate and proportionate
adjustment in (i) the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to this Agreement, and (ii) the exercise price for each share
subject to this Agreement, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of
Options) as to which such Options remain exercisable. The Company shall in any event make such adjustments as may be required by the
laws of Delaware and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The adjustment by the Company shall be final, binding, and conclusive.
No fractional shares shall be issued resulting from any such adjustment, but the Company in its discretion may make a cash payment in
lieu of fractional shares.
(d)
In the case of and subject to the consummation of a Sale Event, all outstanding Options issued hereunder shall become one hundred percent
(100%) vested upon the effective time of any such Sale Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Sale Event, the Company
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make or provide for a cash payment to the Optionee, without any consent of the Optionee,
in exchange for the cancellation thereof, in an amount equal to the difference between (A) the value as determined by the Company of
the consideration payable per share of Common Stock pursuant to the Sale Event (the “Sale Price”) times the number of shares
subject to outstanding Options being cancelled (to the extent then vested and exercisable, including by reason of acceleration in connection
with such Sale Event, at prices not in excess of the Sale Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding vested
and exercisable Options.
(e)
“Sale Event” means the consummation of i) a change in the ownership of the Company, ii) a change in effective control of
the Company, or iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company. The occurrence of a Sale Event
shall be acknowledged by the board of directors, by strictly applying these provisions without any discretion to deviate from the objective
application of the definitions provided herein; provided, however, that any capital raising event, or a merger effected solely to change
the Company’s domicile, shall not constitute a “Sale Event.”
Except
as otherwise provided herein, a change in the ownership of the Company occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person
acting as a group acquires ownership of stock of the Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more
than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company. However, if any one person, or more
than one person acting as a group, is considered to own more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of
the stock of the Company the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the
ownership of the Company (or to cause a change in the effective control of the Company). An increase in the percentage of stock owned
by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the corporation acquires its stock in exchange
for property will be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this section. This section applies only when there is a transfer
of stock of the Company (or issuance of stock) which remains outstanding after the transaction. A change in the effective control of
the Company occurs only on either of the following dates: (1) The date any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires
(or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of
stock of the Company possessing 30 percent or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; (2) The date a majority of
members of the Company’s board of directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is
not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors before the date of the appointment or election.
A
change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one
person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12- month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by
such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40 percent of the total
gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, gross
fair market value means the value of the assets of the corporation, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without
regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.
11.
Necessity to Become Holder of Record. Neither the Optionee, the Optionee’s estate, nor the Transferee have any rights as
a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by the Options until such Optionee, estate, or Transferee, as applicable,
shall have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or cash distributions,
ordinary or extraordinary, in respect of such shares of Common Stock for which the record date is prior to the date on which such Optionee,
estate, or Transferee, as applicable, shall become the holder of record thereof.
12.
Conditions to Exercise of Options.
(a)
In order to enable the Company to comply with the Securities Act and relevant state law, the Company may require the Optionee, the Optionee’s
estate, or any Transferee, as a condition of the exercise of the Options granted hereunder, to give written assurance satisfactory to
the Company that the shares of Common Stock subject to the Options are being acquired for such Optionee’s, estate’s, or Transferee’s,
as applicable, own account, for investment only, with no view to the distribution of same, and that any subsequent resale of any such
shares of Common Stock either shall be made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state law which
has become effective and is current with regard to the shares of Common Stock being sold, or shall be pursuant to an exemption from registration
under the Securities Act and applicable state law.
(b)
The Options are subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Board shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, that
the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Options upon any securities exchange or under
any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary as a condition of, or in connection
with the issue or purchase of such shares of Common Stock under the Options, the Options may not be exercised in whole or in part unless
such listing, registration, qualification, consent, or approval shall have been effected.
13.
Severability. In the event any parts of this Agreement are found to be void, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless be binding with the same effect as though the void parts were deleted.
14.
Arbitration. Any controversy, dispute, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or its interpretation, application,
implementation, breach, or enforcement which the parties hereto are unable to resolve by mutual agreement, shall be settled by submission
by either party of the controversy, claim, or dispute to binding arbitration in New York County, New York (unless the parties agree in
writing to a different location), before a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then
in effect. The decision and award made by the arbitrator shall be final, binding, and conclusive on all parties hereto for all purposes,
and judgment may be entered thereon in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
15.
Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their legal representatives,
successors, and assigns.
16.

General
12.1
Employee acknowledges and warrants that his breach of any of the provisions contained in Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof would result
in irreparable damage and injury to Employer which injury could not be adequately compensated by money damages or other legal remedies.
Accordingly, in the event of such a breach of any of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof, in addition to any remedies which
may be available to Employer, Employer may seek equitable relief for such breaches, including, without limitations, an injunction or
an order for a specific performance. If Employer seeks to enjoin Employee from breaching any such provision of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8,
Employee hereby waives the defense that Employer has or will then have an adequate remedy at law. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed
to limit Employer’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Employee of any provision of this Agreement which may be pursued
or availed by Employer. Furthermore, nothing in this Paragraph 12.1 or otherwise contained in this Agreement shall limit, abridge or
modify the rights of Employer in and to its trade secrets and confidential information under any applicable trade secret, trademark,
patent, unfair competition or other law of the United States or any other jurisdiction.
12.2
This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto, and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements,
and understandings. Nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to require the commission of any act contrary to law and wherever
there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any present or future statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter
shall prevail, but in such event the provision of this Agreement affected shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary
to bring it within legal requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any compensation or other
monies payable hereunder shall be in excess of the amount permitted by any such statute, law, ordinance, or regulation payment of the
maximum amount allowed thereby shall constitute full compliance by Company with the payment requirements of this Agreement.
12.3
No representation, promise, or inducement has been made by either party that is not embodied in this, Agreement and neither party
shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, or inducement not so set forth.
12.4
The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their heirs, legal representatives, successors,
and assigns. This Agreement, and Employee’s rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by Employee. Company may assign
its rights, together with its obligations, hereunder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its business and assets. Company may also assign this Agreement to any affiliate of Company; provided, however, that no such assignment
shall (unless Employee shall so agree in writing) release Company of liability directly to Employee for the due performance of all of
the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement to be complied with and performed by Company. The term “affiliate”,
as used in this agreement, shall mean any corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity controlling, controlled by or under common
control with Company. The term “control” (including “controlling”, “controlled by”, and “under
common control with”), as used in the preceding sentence, shall be deemed to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the
power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity, whether
through ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise.
12.5
This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms or covenants hereof may be waived,
only by a written instrument executed by both of the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. The
failure of either party at any time or times to require performance of any provisions hereof shall in no manner affect the right at a
later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or covenant contained in this Agreement, whether
by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any
such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other term or covenant contained in this Agreement.

or an exemption from such registration is available.
(b) Optionee
and Optionee’s advisers have had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the

or representatives with respect to the legal, tax, economic, and related considerations of an investment in the Shares. Optionee understands
that in the future the Shares may significantly increase or decrease in value, and the Company has not made any representation to the
Optionee about the potential future value of the Shares.
(d) Optionee
understands and agrees that the investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk and that no guarantees have been made or can
be made with respect to the future value of the Award Shares or the future profitability or success of the Company.
5. Termination

for any reason, except death or disability as provided below, the Optionee terminates employment, the Optionee shall have the right within
three (3) months from the date of termination to exercise the Optionee’s vested Options, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof.

For the purpose of this Agreement, “Transferee” shall mean an individual to whom such Optionee’s vested Options
are transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

of the sale, including, without limitation, the purchase price therefor. Further, in such event, the Company may at its option redeem
shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Options by payment of the exercise price to the Optionee. The Company’s rights
under this Section 6 do not lapse one year from the Termination Date but are a contract right subject to any appropriate statutory limitation
period.
7. Transfer.
No transfer of the Options by the Optionee by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company
unless the Company shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of the letters testamentary or such other evidence
as the Board may deem necessary to establish the authority of the estate and the acceptance by the Transferee or Transferees of the terms
and conditions of the Options.

stock split, or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock, the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or decreased
or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new or different
shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares or other securities, in
each case, without the receipt of consideration by the Company, or, if, as a result of any merger or consolidation, or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, the outstanding shares are converted into or exchanged for other securities of the Company
or any successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), the Committee shall make an appropriate and proportionate adjustment in
(i) the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to this Agreement, and (ii) the exercise price for each share subject to
this Agreement, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of Options) as
to which such Options remain exercisable. The Company shall in any event make such adjustments as may be required by the laws of Delaware
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The adjustment by the Company shall be final, binding, and conclusive. No fractional
shares shall be issued resulting from any such adjustment, but the Company in its discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional
shares.
(d) In
the case of and subject to the consummation of a Sale Event, all outstanding Options issued hereunder shall become one hundred percent
(100%) vested upon the effective time of any such Sale Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Sale Event, the Company
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make or provide for a cash payment to the Optionee, without any consent of the Optionee,
in exchange for the cancellation thereof, in an amount equal to the difference between (A) the value as determined by the Company of
the consideration payable per share of Common Stock pursuant to the Sale Event (the “Sale Price”) times the number of shares
subject to outstanding Options being cancelled (to the extent then vested and exercisable, including by reason of acceleration in connection
with such Sale Event, at prices not in excess of the Sale Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding vested
and exercisable Options.
(e) “Sale
Event” means the consummation of i) a change in the ownership of the Company, ii) a change in effective control of the Company,
or iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company. The occurrence of a Sale Event shall be acknowledged
by the board of directors, by strictly applying these provisions without any discretion to deviate from the objective application of
the definitions provided herein; provided, however, that any capital raising event, or a merger effected solely to change the Company’s
domicile, shall not constitute a “Sale Event.”
Except
as otherwise provided herein, a change in the ownership of the Company occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person
acting as a group acquires ownership of stock of the Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more
than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company. However, if any one person, or more
than one person acting as a group, is considered to own more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of
the stock of the Company the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the
ownership of the Company (or to cause a change in the effective control of the Company). An increase in the percentage of stock owned
by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the corporation acquires its stock in exchange
for property will be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this section. This section applies only when there is a transfer
of stock of the Company (or issuance of stock) which remains outstanding after the transaction. A change in the effective control of
the Company occurs only on either of the following dates: (1) The date any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires
(or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of
stock of the Company possessing 30 percent or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; (2) The date a majority of
members of the Company’s board of directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is
not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors before the date of the appointment or election.
A
change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one
person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12- month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by
such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40 percent of the total
gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, gross
fair market value means the value of the assets of the corporation, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without
regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.
11. Necessity
to Become Holder of Record. Neither the Optionee, the Optionee’s estate, nor the Transferee have any rights as a shareholder
with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by the Options until such Optionee, estate, or Transferee, as applicable, shall have
become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or cash distributions, ordinary
or extraordinary, in respect of such shares of Common Stock for which the record date is prior to the date on which such Optionee, estate,
or Transferee, as applicable, shall become the holder of record thereof.
12. Conditions to Exercise of Options.
(a) In
order to enable the Company to comply with the Securities Act and relevant state law, the Company may require the Optionee, the Optionee’s
estate, or any Transferee, as a condition of the exercise of the Options granted hereunder, to give written assurance satisfactory to
the Company that the shares of Common Stock subject to the Options are being acquired for such Optionee’s, estate’s, or Transferee’s,
as applicable, own account, for investment only, with no view to the distribution of same, and that any subsequent resale of any such
shares of Common Stock either shall be made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state law which
has become effective and is current with regard to the shares of Common Stock being sold, or shall be pursuant to an exemption from registration
under the Securities Act and applicable state law.
(b) The
Options are subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Board shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the
listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Options upon any securities exchange or under any
state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary as a condition of, or in connection
with the issue or purchase of such shares of Common Stock under the Options, the Options may not be exercised in whole or in part unless
such listing, registration, qualification, consent, or approval shall have been effected.
13. Severability.
In the event any parts of this Agreement are found to be void, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless be binding
with the same effect as though the void parts were deleted.
14. Arbitration.
Any controversy, dispute, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or its interpretation, application, implementation,
breach, or enforcement which the parties hereto are unable to resolve by mutual agreement, shall be settled by submission by either party
of the controversy, claim, or dispute to binding arbitration in New York County, New York (unless the parties agree in writing to a different
location), before a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The decision
and award made by the arbitrator shall be final, binding, and conclusive on all parties hereto for all purposes, and judgment may be
entered thereon in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
15. Benefit.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their legal representatives, successors, and
assigns.
16. Notices
and Addresses. All notices, offers, acceptance, and any other acts under this Agreement (except payment) shall be in writing, and

AGREEMENT
This
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made effective as of December 13th, 2021, (the “Effective Date”),
by and between LifeMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), having corporate headquarters at 236 Fifth Avenue,
Suite 400, New York, NY 10001, and Dennis Wijnker, an individual and resident of the State of California with an address at 2732 Tucker
Lane, Los Alamitos, CA 90720 (the “Employee”).
The
Company and Employee are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party.”
WlTNESSETH:
WHEREAS,
the Company desires to employ, and Employee agrees to work in the employ of the Company; and
WHEREAS,
the Parties hereto desire to set forth the terms of Employee’s employment with the Company.
NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and obligations contained, the Company and Employee hereby agree
as follows:
1.
Employment. The Company hereby employs Employee, and Employee hereby accepts employment by the Company, on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth.
2.
Duties and Responsibilities.
(a)
Commencing as of the Effective Date, Employee shall serve in the position of Chief Technology Officer. During the Employment Term, Employee
shall (i) be subject to all of the Company’s policies, rules, and regulations applicable to its executives, (ii) report to, and
be subject to the direction and control of, Officer, Director, and Co-founder Stefan Galluppi and (iii) perform such duties commensurate
with Employee’s position as shall be assigned to Employee.
(b)
During the term of Employee’s employment, and excluding any vacation, paid holiday, and sick and personal leave to which Employee
may be entitled under this Agreement or applicable federal, state, or local law, Employee agrees to devote substantially all of his business
time, energies, skills, and attention to the business and affairs of the Company and any corporation, partnership, limited liability
company, or other entity owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Company (each, a “Subsidiary”), to the
extent necessary to discharge the responsibilities assigned to Employee hereunder, to use Employee’s reasonable best efforts to
perform faithfully, effectively, and efficiently such responsibilities. During the term of Employee’s employment, it shall not
be a violation of this Agreement for Employee to (i) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (ii) deliver lectures
or fulfill speaking engagements, (iii) perform pro bono legal work or (iv) manage personal investments, so long as such activities do
not (A) violate the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement between Employee and the Company, or between the Company and any third
party or (B) constitute an actual or prospective conflict of interest or otherwise interfere with the performance of Employee’s
responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with this Agreement.
(c)
To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, Employee represents and warrants to the Company that he is subject to no restraint,
limitation, or restriction by virtue of any agreement or arrangement, or by virtue of any law or rule of law or otherwise which would
impair [his/her] right or ability (i) to enter the employ of the Company or (ii) to perform fully his duties and obligations pursuant
to this Agreement.
3.
Term of Employment. This Agreement and the employment relationship and terms hereunder shall continue from the Effective Date
until Employee’s employment is terminated by either the Company or Employee pursuant to Section 7 (the “Employment
Term”).
4.
Compensation. In consideration for all services rendered by Employee to the Company during the Employment Term, and the covenants
and agreements of Employee set forth herein (including without limitation the Amendment and Waiver provision in Section 8), the
Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Employee, and Employee shall accept, the payments and benefits set forth in this Section
4. The Company shall be entitled to deduct and/or withhold from the compensation amounts payable under this Agreement, all amounts
required or permitted to be deducted or withheld under any federal, state, or local law or regulation, or in connection with any Bonus
Plan (as defined below) or Benefit Plan (as defined below) in which Employee participates and which mandates a contribution, assessment,
or co-payment by the participants therein.
(a)
Base Salary. The Company shall pay Employee a base salary at the rate of $[***] per calendar year, which amount
shall be subject to adjustment as set forth below (the “Base Salary”). Employee’s Base Salary shall be paid
in approximately equal installments in accordance with the Company’s regular practices, as such practices may be modified from
time to time. During the Employment Term, Employee’s Base Salary shall be reviewed annually (on a calendar year basis) by and shall
be subject to adjustment at the discretion of the Company. “Base Salary” as used in this Agreement shall refer to
the Base Salary as so adjusted from time to time.
(b)
Bonus Plans. Employee shall be eligible to receive a discretionary “Performance Bonus” for each calendar year
during the Employment Term. The Performance Bonus, if any, shall be determined on a calendar year basis in the Company’s sole discretion,
with a target of 15% of the Base Salary, and shall be paid as and when determined by the Board, but typically no later than March 15
of the calendar year following the year to which the Performance Bonus is attributable. Exemplary performance metrics pertinent to the
award of a Performance Bonus will be determined and further specified by Mr. Galluppi in coordination with LifeMD’s Chief Financial
Officer, and include but are not limited to:

(c)
Benefit Plans. Employee shall be eligible to participate in all benefit plans of the Company, including without limitation—and
to the extent available and/or offered—medical coverage, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k plan, and/or other benefits that
may be provided by the Company, from time to time, to Company employees of comparable status, subject to, and to the extent that, Employee
is eligible under each such benefit plan in accordance with their respective terms (i.e., after the passage of any pre-required
amount of service pursuant to each benefit plan). For example, medical benefits commence for your position on the first day of the month
following the first day of employment, whereas the Employee 401(k) plan commences after 3 months of service.
(d)
Stock Option. The Board has approved, and Employee shall be entitled to—on December 29, 2021 (the “Grant Date”)—a
nonqualified stock option (the “Stock Option”) to purchase up to 80,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an
exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Grant Date. The Stock Option shall be granted subject
to a standalone non-statutory stock option agreement pursuant to the NASDAQ inducement grant exception and shall be subject to the terms
thereof (the “Option Agreement”). Provided the Employee’s service with the Company continues through each applicable
vesting date, the Stock Option shall vest and become exercisable in three equal installments, based on the passage of 12 month increments
of time over the 36 months following the Grant Date. Upon the consummation of a “change in control event” (as defined in
Section 409A of the Code), any unvested Stock Option for the installment when the change in control event occurs shall vest in a pro
rata fashion for that installment. All other terms of the Stock Option shall be governed by the Plan and the Option Agreement. The Stock
Option is intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and shall be administered and interpreted consistent with such intent.
(e) Signing
Bonus. The Company shall pay Employee a one-time signing bonus of $10,000 to be paid in ten equal and consecutive monthly
installments of $1,000 each, with the first monthly installment paid after completion of the first full month of
employment.
5.
Additional Benefits. During the Employment Term, Employee shall receive a total of 15 days per calendar year of paid vacation
and other time off. During the Employment Term, Employee shall be eligible to receive any other employment benefits that may be provided
by the Company from time to time to Company employees of comparable status, subject to, and to the extent that, Employee is eligible
under such benefits in accordance with their respective terms. The Company reserves the right to change benefits from time to time in
its discretion.
6.
Covenants of Employee.
(a)
Employee will truthfully and accurately make, maintain, and preserve all records and reports that the Company may from time-to-time reasonably
request or require;
(b)
Employee will obey all rules, regulations, and reasonable special instructions applicable to Employee, and will be loyal and faithful
to the Company at all times, constantly endeavoring to improve Employee’s ability and knowledge of the business in an effort to
increase the value of Employee’s services to the mutual benefit of the Parties;
(c)
Employee will make available to the Company all information Employee has knowledge relating to the business of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries and will make all suggestions and recommendations which Employee feels will be of benefit to the Company;
(d)
Employee will fully account for all money, records, goods, wares, and merchandise or other property belonging to the Company of which
Employee has custody, and will pay over and deliver the same promptly whenever and however he may be reasonably directed to do so;
(e)
During employment with the Company, its subsidiaries, and thereafter, the Employee will not divulge, transmit or otherwise disclose (except
as legally compelled by court order), directly or indirectly, any confidential knowledge or information with respect to the operations,
finances, organization or employees of the Company or its affiliates or with respect to confidential or secret processes, services, techniques,
customers or plans with respect to the Company and its affiliates. The Employee will not use, directly or indirectly, any confidential
information of the Company and its affiliates for the benefit of anyone other than the Company or its affiliates.
(f)
All files, records, correspondence, memoranda, notes or other documents (including, without limitation, those in computer-readable form)
or property relating or belonging to the Company and its affiliates, whether prepared by the Employee or otherwise coming into [his/her]
possession in the course of the performance of [his/her] services, shall be the exclusive property of the Company and shall be immediately
delivered to the Company and not retained by the Employee (including, without limitations, any copies thereof) upon termination of employment
for any reason whatsoever.
(g)
While employed by the Company and its subsidiaries and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Restricted
Period”), the Employee shall not, within any jurisdiction or marketing area in which the Company or any of its affiliates is
doing business, directly or indirectly—limited to telehealth or telemedicine businesses—(i) participate in the
ownership, management, operation, or control of; or (ii) consult with, be employed by, or otherwise render services to any said
telehealth or telemedicine business. During the Restricted Period, the Employee shall not, privately or publicly: (i) solicit for
business or accept the business of, any person or entity who is, or was at any time within the previous twelve (12) months, a
customer of the Company (or potential customer with whom the Company had initiated contact) or its affiliates, unless Employee had
contacts with said customer or potential customer prior to signing these Employment Terms; (ii) disparage or make derogatory,
pejorative, or offensive remarks about the Company, it affiliates, or its brands, products, and offerings.
(h)
Employee represents and warrants that Employee’s performance under these Terms does not and will not violate the terms of any other
agreement to which Employee is a party, including, without limitation, confidentiality, or non-competition agreements.
(i)
Employee understands that in his performing work for the Company, he will be expected not to use or disclose any confidential information,
including trade secrets, of any former employer or other person that Employee has an obligation of confidentiality. Rather, Employee
further understands that he will be expected to use only that information which is generally known and used by persons with training
and experience comparable to his own, which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain, or which is
otherwise provided or developed by the Company. Employee agrees that he will not bring onto Company premises any unpublished documents
or property belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality. Employee hereby represents
that he has disclosed to the Company any contract he has signed that may restrict Employee’s activities on behalf of the Company.
(j)
Employee acknowledges and understands that the securities of the Company are publicly traded and subject to the Securities Act of 1933
and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result, Employee acknowledges and agrees that (i) he is required under applicable securities
laws to refrain from trading in securities of the Company while in possession of material nonpublic information and to refrain from disclosing
any material nonpublic information to anyone except as permitted by this Agreement in connection with the performance of Employee’s
duties hereunder, and (ii) he will communicate to any person to whom Employee communicates any material nonpublic information that such
information is material nonpublic information and that the trading and disclosure restrictions in clause (i) above also apply to such
person.
7.
Termination of Employment. Employee’s employment with the Company will be “at-will.” Either the Company or Employee
can terminate the employment at any time and for any reason, with or without notice by the Company, and with at least two weeks written
notice by Employee. If Employee’s employment is terminated without cause, Employee will receive severance pay equal to Employee’s
monthly Base Salary for three months from the date of termination of employment.
The
Company may terminate the employment of the Employee with cause if the Company determines that, for example, Employee has:
|
(a)
|
materially
breached any provision hereof or habitually neglected the duties which Employee was required to perform under any provision of this
Agreement; |
|
|
|
|
(b)
|
misappropriated
funds or property of the Company or otherwise engaged in acts of dishonesty, fraud, misrepresentation, or other acts of moral
turpitude, even if not in connection with the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, which could reasonably be expected
to result in serious prejudice to the interests of the Company if Employee were retained as an employee; |
|
|
|
|
(c)
|
secured
any personal profit not completely disclosed to and approved by the Company in connection with any transaction entered into on behalf
of or with the Company or any affiliate of the Company; or |
|
|
|
|
(d)
|
failed
to carry out and perform duties assigned to Employee in accordance with the terms hereof in a manner acceptable to the Company after
a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Employee which identifies the manner in which Employee has not substantially
performed Employee’s duties and provided further that Employee shall be given a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure. |
For

enforcement of any waiver, change, modification, extension or discharge is sought; however, the amount of compensation to be paid to
Employee for services to be performed for the Company hereunder may be changed from time to time by the Parties by written agreement
without in any other way modifying, changing or affecting this Agreement or the performance by Employee of any of the duties of his employment
with the Company. Any such written agreement shall be, and shall be conclusively deemed to be, a ratification and confirmation of this
Agreement, except as expressly set forth in such written amendment. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement
shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach thereof, nor of any breach of any other term or provision
of this Agreement.
9.

provision invalid or unenforceable, to the extent permitted by law (a) the Parties agree that they will amend such provision to the minimal
extent necessary to bring such provision within the ambit of enforceability, and (b) any court of competent jurisdiction may, at the
request of either party, sufficiently revise, reconstruct, or reform such provision to cause it to be valid and enforceable.
11.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement forms the complete and exclusive statement of Employee’s employment agreement with the
Company. It supersedes any other agreements, representations or promises made to Employee by anyone, whether oral or written. Changes
in Employee’s employment terms, other than those changes expressly reserved to the Company’s discretion in this Agreement,
require a written modification signed by an officer of the Company.
12.
Force Majeure. Neither of the Parties shall be liable to the other for any delay or failure to perform hereunder, which delay
or failure is due to causes beyond the control of said Party, including, but not limited to acts of God; acts of the public enemy; acts
of the United States of America or any state, territory, or political subdivision thereof or of the District of Columbia; fires; floods;
epidemics, quarantine restrictions; strike or freight embargoes. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, in every
case the delay or failure to perform must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Party claiming excusable delay.
13.
Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute arising under or pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties agree to attempt to resolve
the dispute in a commercially reasonable fashion before instituting any litigation or arbitration (except for emergency injunctive relief).
If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days, then the parties agree to mediate the dispute with a mutually
agreed upon mediator in New York, NY. If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator within ten (10) days after either party shall first
request commencement of mediation, each party will select a mediator within five (5) days thereof, and those mediators shall select the
mediator to be used. The mediation shall be scheduled within thirty (30) days following the selection of the mediator. The parties further
agree that any applicable statute of limitations will be tolled for the period of time from the date mediation is requested until 14
days following the mediation. If the mediation does not resolve the dispute, then the parties irrevocably and unconditionally agree to
the arbitration provisions in Section 14.
14.
Arbitration. To ensure the rapid and economical resolution of disputes that may arise in connection with your employment with
the Company, Employee and the Company agree that any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action, in law or equity, including but not
limited to statutory claims, arising from or relating to the enforcement, breach, performance, or interpretation of this Agreement, Employee’s
employment with the Company, or the termination of Employee’s employment, shall be resolved pursuant to the Federal Arbitration
Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1-16, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding and confidential arbitration conducted by JAMS or
its successor, under JAMS’ then applicable rules and procedures for employment disputes (available upon request and also currently
available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules- employment-arbitration/). The arbitration will take place in New York, NY unless otherwise
agreed to by the Parties. Employee acknowledges that by agreeing to this arbitration procedure, both Employee and the Company waive the
right to resolve any such dispute through a trial by jury or judge or administrative proceeding. In addition, all claims, disputes, or
causes of action under this section, whether by Employee or the Company, must be brought in an individual capacity, and shall not be
brought as a plaintiff (or claimant) or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding, nor joined or consolidated
with the claims of any other person or entity. The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person or entity and may
not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. To the extent that the preceding sentences regarding class claims or
proceedings are found to violate applicable law or are otherwise found unenforceable, any claim(s) alleged or brought on behalf of a
class shall proceed in a court of law rather than by arbitration. This paragraph shall not apply to any action or claim that cannot be
subject to mandatory arbitration as a matter of law, including, without limitation, claims brought pursuant to the California Private
Attorneys General Act of 2004, as amended, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, as amended, and the California Labor Code,
as amended, to the extent such claims are not permitted by applicable law(s) to be submitted to mandatory arbitration and the applicable
law(s) are not preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act or otherwise invalid (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”).
In the event Employee intends to bring multiple claims, including one of the Excluded Claims listed above, the Excluded Claims may be
filed with a court, while any other claims will remain subject to mandatory arbitration. Employee will have the right to be represented
by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator shall: (a) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution
of the dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be permitted by law; and (b) issue a written statement signed by the arbitrator
regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, awarded as to each claim, the reasons for the award, and the arbitrator’s
essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award all relief that Employee
or the Company would be entitled to seek in a court of law. The Company shall pay all JAMS arbitration fees in excess of the administrative
fees that Employee would be required to pay if the dispute were decided in a court of law. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent
either Employee or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such
arbitration.
15.
Successors.
(a)
No rights or obligations of Employee under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by Employee other than Employee’s rights
to payments or benefits hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Upon Employee’s
death, this Agreement and all rights of Employee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s beneficiary
or beneficiaries, personal or legal representatives, or estate, to the extent any such person succeeds to Employee’s interests
under this Agreement. Subject to compliance with the terms of any Company sponsored benefit plan, Employee shall be entitled to select
and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive following Employee’s death any benefit or compensation payable hereunder by
giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of Employee’s death or a judicial determination of Employee’s incompetence,
reference in this Agreement to Employee shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to Employee’s beneficiary(ies), estate or
other legal representative(s).
(b)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and permitted assigns.
(c)
The Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement to any successor of substantially all of its business or assets, and any such
successor shall be bound by all of the provisions hereof.
16.
Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Parties shall be governed by and construed and enforced in
accordance with the substantive laws of New York.
17.
Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts each deemed to be an original but all of which
together shall constitute but one instrument.

communicate with any customer or prospect of the Company, or any representative of any customer or prospect of the Company, with a view
to the selling or providing of any program, product or service competitive or potentially competitive with any program, product, equipment
or service sold or provided or under development by the Company during a period of two (2) years immediately preceding termination of
this Agreement, provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6 shall apply only to customers or prospects of the
Company, or representatives of customers or prospects of the Company, with which Employee had contact during such two-year period. The
actions prohibited by this section shall not be engaged in by Employee, directly or indirectly, whether as manager, owner, sales or service
representative, agent, engineer, technician or otherwise. Employee hereby confirms and acknowledges that the covenant set forth in this
Section is reasonable, appropriate and necessary to protect the interest of the Employer and will not cause undue hardship on Employee.

Agreement engage in any activity in competition with the business activities of Employer. Employee further agrees that for a period
of two (2) years immediately following termination of this Agreement, within a fifty (50) mile radius of the address where

activity that is competitive with the activities Employee conducted for Employer within one year prior to the termination of this
Agreement.

Tolling of Restrictive Covenants. In the event the enforceability of any of the terms of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement
shall be challenged in court and Employee is not enjoined from breaching any of the protective covenants contained in Sections 5, 6,
7 or 8 hereof, then if a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the challenged protective covenant is enforceable, the time periods
described in the challenged Section(s), or Paragraph(s), shall be deemed tolled upon the filing of the lawsuit in which the enforceability
of the covenant is challenged until the dispute is finally resolved and all applicable appeal rights have expired.
10.
Attorney Fee Indemnification for Enforcement of the Provisions of this Contract. The parties hereto agree that if either party is
forced to engage the services of an attorney at law to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement and is successful in so enforcing

General
12.1
Employee acknowledges and warrants that his breach of any of the provisions contained in Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof would result
in irreparable damage and injury to Employer which injury could not be adequately compensated by money damages or other legal remedies.
Accordingly, in the event of such a breach of any of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 hereof, in addition to any remedies which
may be available to Employer, Employer may seek equitable relief for such breaches, including, without limitations, an injunction or
an order for a specific performance. If Employer seeks to enjoin Employee from breaching any such provision of Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8,
Employee hereby waives the defense that Employer has or will then have an adequate remedy at law. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed
to limit Employer’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Employee of any provision of this Agreement which may be pursued
or availed by Employer. Furthermore, nothing in this Paragraph 12.1 or otherwise contained in this Agreement shall limit, abridge or
modify the rights of Employer in and to its trade secrets and confidential information under any applicable trade secret, trademark,
patent, unfair competition or other law of the United States or any other jurisdiction.
12.2
This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto, and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements,
and understandings. Nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to require the commission of any act contrary to law and wherever
there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any present or future statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter
shall prevail, but in such event the provision of this Agreement affected shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary
to bring it within legal requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any compensation or other
monies payable hereunder shall be in excess of the amount permitted by any such statute, law, ordinance, or regulation, payment of the
maximum amount allowed thereby shall constitute full compliance by Company with the payment requirements of this Agreement.
12.3
No representation, promise, or inducement has been made by either party that is not embodied in this Agreement, and neither party
shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, or inducement not so set forth.
12.4
The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their heirs, legal representatives, successors,
and assigns. This Agreement, and Employee’s rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by Employee. Company may assign
its rights, together with its obligations, hereunder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its business and assets. Company may also assign this Agreement to any affiliate of Company; provided, however, that no such assignment
shall (unless Employee shall so agree in writing) release Company of liability directly to Employee for the due performance of all of
the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement to be complied with and performed by Company. The term “affiliate”,
as used in this agreement, shall mean any corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity controlling, controlled by or under common
control with Company. The term “control” (including “controlling”, “controlled by”, and “under
common control with”), as used in the preceding sentence, shall be deemed to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the
power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such corporation, firm, partnership, or other entity, whether
through ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise.
12.5
This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms or covenants hereof may be waived,
only by a written instrument executed by both of the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. The
failure of either party at any time or times to require performance of any provisions hereof shall in no manner affect the right at a
later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or covenant contained in this Agreement, whether
by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any
such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other term or covenant contained in this Agreement.
12.6
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements to be wholly
performed therein.
12.7
The parties hereto expressly agree that it is not the intention of the parties hereto to violate any public policy, statutory or
common law rules, regulations, treaties or decisions of any government or agency thereof. If any provision of this Agreement is judicially
or administratively interpreted or construed as being in violation of any such provision, such articles, sections, paragraphs, sentences,
words, clauses or combinations thereof shall be inoperative in such jurisdiction and the remainder of this agreement shall remain binding
upon the parties hereto and in full force and effect.
12.8
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED
WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE BUYER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Re: |
Registration
Statement on Form S-8 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We
have acted as counsel to LifeMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with a Registration Statement
on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to (i) 1,260,750 shares of common stock of
the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) that are issued or subject to issuance by the Company upon the
exercise or settlement of awards previously granted under the LifeMD, Inc. Amended and Restated 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and that are being registered for resale by certain directors, officers and employees, and (ii) 778,000 shares of Common Stock that are
issued or subject to issuance by the Company upon the exercise or settlement of awards previously granted under certain agreements and
arrangements with certain directors, officers and employees (collectively, the “Non-Plan Arrangements”) and that are being
registered for resale by those directors, officers and employees. For the purposes of this opinion, the shares described under (i) shall
be referred to as the “Plan Shares,” and the shares described under (ii) shall be referred to as the “Non-Plan Shares.”
In
connection with this opinion, we have reviewed the actions proposed to be taken by the Company in connection with the issuance and resale
of the Plan Shares and the Non-Plan Shares. We have also examined and relied upon the Registration Statement and the originals or copies
certified to our satisfaction of such other documents, records, certificates, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are
necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. With the Company’s consent, we have relied upon certificates
and other assurances of officers of the Company as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We
have assumed the genuineness and authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to originals of all documents
submitted to us as copies thereof and the due execution and delivery of all documents where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite
to the effectiveness thereof.
This
opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed
herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement, other than as expressly stated herein. Our opinion
is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. Our opinion
herein is expressed solely with respect to the federal laws of the United States and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
Our opinion is based on these laws as in effect on the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to advise the Company of facts, circumstances,
events or developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may alter, affect or modify the opinion expressed herein.
We are not rendering any opinion as to compliance with any federal or state antifraud law, rule or regulation relating to securities,
or to the sale or issuance thereof.

Based
upon and subject to the foregoing, we advise the Company that, in our opinion, when the Plan Shares have been issued pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the Plan and pursuant to the agreements which accompany the Plan, and in accordance with the Registration Statement,
such Plan Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and when the Non-Plan Shares have been issued pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the Non-Plan Arrangements, and in accordance with the Registration Statement, such Non-Plan Shares will be validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We
hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus included in the Registration
Statement and to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit
that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder.
