Re: Notice of Termination of Independent Contractor Engagement — For Cause

This letter confirms that your independent contractor engagement with Carolina Pintos Therapy, PLLC (the “Company”) is terminated for Cause, as defined in your signed agreements with the Company, effective immediately upon delivery of this notice. This is the conclusion of a contractual relationship between independent parties; it is not a termination of employment.

Basis for Termination

The following documented issues form the basis for this termination:

• Factual event 1 — state what happened, when, and how it was addressed. Facts only; no characterizations. Example: “On date, a post-operative patient’s incision reopened during scar-tissue work performed with excessive pressure, requiring escalation to the patient’s surgeon.”
• Factual event 2 — e.g., “Required pre-service patient consultations were not completed before massage services on dates, contrary to the clinic’s treatment protocols.”
• Factual event 3 — e.g., “Despite written correction on date, post-operative patients were repeatedly positioned contrary to the clinic’s protocols, creating patient-safety risk.”

These events constitute material breaches of your signed agreements, including their patient-safety and clinical-protocol obligations, and constitute Cause as defined in those agreements.

Surviving Obligations

The obligations under your signed agreements that by their terms survive the end of this engagement remain in effect according to their terms — including confidentiality and protection of the Company’s proprietary information, intellectual-property assignment, non-solicitation of the Company’s patients, referral sources, and staff, and non-disparagement. If you signed a Non-Competition Agreement, it likewise remains in effect according to its terms. Please refer to your signed copies for the specific terms; copies are available on request. The Company reserves all rights under those agreements and applicable law.

Return of Company Property

Please immediately return all Company property in your possession — keys and access credentials, devices, records, patient information in any form, and materials — and retain no copies. If you signed a Key & Property Issuance Acknowledgment, the replacement charges authorized in it apply to any issued items not returned. Your digital access is deactivated as of the effective date.

Final Payment

The Company will pay for all services performed and documented through the effective date, in accordance with your engagement terms. If any offset applies under a Training Investment and Reimbursement Agreement you signed, it will be calculated and applied strictly as set out in that agreement, and a written itemized statement will be provided to you. Final payment will be made by direct deposit unless you notify the Company in writing that you prefer a mailed check.

Thank you for your contributions during your time with the Company. We wish you well in your future endeavors.

Best Regards,

Carolina Miranda & Homero Miranda
