<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">On January 12, 2015, USA Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") and MasterCard International Incorporated ("MasterCard") entered into a three year MasterCard Acceptance Agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, MasterCard has agreed to make available to the Company reduced interchange rates for small ticket debit card transactions in the unattended beverage and food vending merchant category code. The reduced interchange rates will become effective when the Company&#8217;s card processor notifies MasterCard that it has effectuated the reduced interchange rates.</div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">As previously reported, MasterCard had significantly increased its interchange rates for small ticket regulated debit card transactions effective October 1, 2011, and as a result, the Company ceased accepting MasterCard debit card products in mid-November 2011. Pursuant to the Agreement, upon effectiveness of the reduced interchange rates, the Company has agreed to accept MasterCard debit card products for small ticket debit card transactions in the unattended beverage and food vending merchant category code.</div>
