MR. BRYAN AGONCILLO

Branch Head/OIC – OBP Katipunan
OBP Academy Incorporated

Dear Sir,

I am writing to officially tender my resignation letter from OBP Academy effective

June 26, 2016.

Since January 2014, I have worked as an Academic Consultant for Mathematics. My

involvement with the institution has been an experience I will not forget. I have had
the opportunity to work with some of the finest colleagues and staff members which
shaped me both personally and professionally. I have grown in many ways during
my time here and I appreciate the opportunities provided for me. With that, I will be
forever grateful to the institution.

This was not an easy decision and took a lot of consideration. However, I am
confident that this will help me move towards some of the goals I have for my
career. If I can be of any assistance during the transition, I would be glad to help
however I can.

Thank you and more power.

Respectfully yours,

Judy Ann D. Reyes

RE: BREACH OF EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT

Dear Ms. Reyes:

We write for and in behalf of our client, OBP ACADEMY INCORPORATED (OBP for
brevity) in relation to you breach of employment contract dated August 27, 2014.

In violation of Article 11 of the employment contract, you knowingly abandoned

work: 1) only after a month from notice of your accepted resignation; and 2)
without securing the required approval from the Company in case of abandonment
of work.

Worse, you continue to ignore repeated inquiries from the Company concerning this
matter.

The aforesaid provision states:

11. A 90-day prior written notice addressed to the EMPLOYER must be given by
the EMPLOYEE intending to resign and should secure the written approval of
the administration before resigning or abandoning work. Should the
employee fail to do so, the EMPLOYER reserves the right to file the necessary
legal action for breach of contract and damages against the EMPLOYEE.

From the foregoing, we write to give you a final opportunity to submit to

management or to our law office your written explanation for the abandonment of
your work in violation of the employment contract on or before 29 June 2016.

Kindly give this your preferential attention. In the event that you fail to comply with
this demand, our client has no other recourse by to proceed immediately with the
filing of any and all necessary legal/formal action in the proper courts, criminal,
civil, and/or administrative, in order to protect and enforce its rights.

Sincerely,

RE: WRITTEN EXPLANATION

Dear Sir:

This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 22 June 2016 re: Breach of
Employment Contract.

In accordance with Article No. 285 of Labor Code of the Philippines, in case of
voluntary resignation, the law affords the employee the right to resign regardless of
whether the company has found an able and competent replacement and whether
the operation of the company would be affected, provided he serves a written notice
on the employer at least one month in advance.

The aforesaid article states:

Article 286. Termination by Employee – (a) An

employee may terminate without just cause the
employee-employer relationship by serving a written
notice on the employer at least one (1) month in
advance. The employer upon whom no such notice was
served may hold the employee liable for damages.

I filed my resignation letter and have it received last 13 April 2016 and reported to
OBP until 14 May 2016. By virtue of the foregoing, I was able to comply with the 1
month notice which was also acknowledged by OBP during your formal letter.
Therefore, there are no grounds to say that I knowingly abandoned my work since I
faithfully comply with the requirements of the law by filing my resignation letter a
month ahead before my last day.

Further, I left OBP before the lapse of 90 days only upon the assurance of Mr. Bryan
Agoncillo that it was okay to do so and that I would not suffer any repercussions by
choosing to leave OBP before the lapse of 90 days from the day I submitted my
resignation letter.

Thank you very much and more power

Sincerely,

JUDY ANN D. REYES

RE: REPLY TO WRITTEN EXPLANATION DATED 28 JUNE 2016

Dear Ms. Reyes:

This referes to your reply-letter dated 30 June 2016. In relation thereto, we write to
inform you that our client, OBP ACADEMY INCORPORATED finds your explanation
unacceptable, unjustifiable, and groundless.

It is basic that a contract is the law between the parties and Article 11 of your
employment contract clearly provides for a 90-day prior written notice before
resignation. The employment contract is hereto attached as Annex “A” for your
ready reference.

From the foregoing, the breach of the aforesaid contracts subjects you to liability
enforceable before the proper courts and entitles OBP to recover damages for
whatever prejudice such breach might have caused it. Accordingly, our client
reserves the right to file any and all necessary legal/formal action in the proper
courts, criminal, civil, and/or administrative, in order to protect and enforce its
rights.

Sincerely,
