<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>NEW YORK &#150; November</B><B></B><B>&nbsp;21, 2019</B> &#150; Hudson Executive Capital LP (&#147;Hudson Executive&#148; or &#147;HEC&#148;), a New
York-based investment firm and the largest shareholder of USA Technologies, Inc. (&#147;USAT&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) (OTC: USAT) with beneficial ownership of approximately 16.3% of common stock, today announced that the Court of Common
Pleas of Chester County, Pennsylvania has ordered USAT to hold its annual meeting of shareholders no later than April 2020. USAT has not held an annual meeting of shareholders in nearly 19 months. The Court also ordered that USAT&#146;s entire Board
of Directors stand for election at the annual meeting and prohibited the Board from making any further amendments to the Company&#146;s bylaws. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Douglas
Braunstein, Founder and Managing Partner of Hudson Executive, stated: &#147;This order is a reprimand of USAT&#146;s current board and the detrimental actions it has taken in refusing to allow shareholders to vote. True to form, the Board chose the
last possible date permitted by the Court, further underscoring the need for new leadership. It is high time that USAT has a board that will look out for the interests of all shareholders and we are pleased the Court has provided shareholders with
this opportunity.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Moreover, today&#146;s order allows Hudson Executive to nominate its slate of highly qualified, independent candidates for
election to the USAT Board at the annual meeting. Hudson Executive will file solicitation materials expeditiously with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission so that shareholders can express their will. Consistent with the Court&#146;s order,
which was consented to by USAT and Hudson Executive following oral arguments, Hudson Executive is suspending its solicitation of consents to call a special meeting because all shareholders have the opportunity to vote meaningfully sooner to change
existing Company leadership than would have occurred through the special meeting process. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cadwalader, Wickersham&nbsp;&amp; Taft LLP and Pepper Hamilton
