Explanation:

the given sentence, Use of Correlative conjunction 'Either - or' is used. The rule for the usage of correlative conjunction says that the verb which follows two subjects joined by 'or' must agree with the second subject and not the first. In the given sentence, the second subject is 'he' which is singular, therefore a singular helping verb has to be used to agree with it.

From the given options, Option A 'have' is a helping verb which is used with plural subject, Option B 'are' is a helping verb which is also used with plural subject, Option C - 'am' is a helping verb which is used with singular subject 'I'. On the other hand, Option D - 'has' is a helping verb used with singular subject.

Therefore, the correct helping verb which agrees with the given subject is Option D :  has.

The completed sentence, thus, becomes : Either you or he has to leave the place.
