Ladies and Gentlemen:

PAR Technology Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby agrees with you as follows:

1.               Issuance of Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions herein contained, the Company proposes to issue and sell to Xxxxxxxxx LLC (the “Initial Purchaser”) $105,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Initial Securities”). The Initial Securities will be issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), to be dated as of February 10, 2020, by and among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). In addition, the Company has granted to the Initial Purchaser an option to purchase up to an additional $15,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 on the terms and conditions and for the purposes set forth in Section 2 (the “Option Securities” and, together with the Initial Securities, the “Securities”). The Securities will be convertible into cash and duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.02 per share (the “Common Stock”), or a combination thereof including any such shares issuable upon conversion in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Final Offering Memorandum) (such shares, the “Conversion Shares”), on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the “Description of the Notes” section of the Final Offering Memorandum (as hereinafter defined).

The Securities will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchaser pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”). Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities shall bear the legends set forth in the final offering memorandum, dated the date hereof (the “Final Offering

Page 2

Memorandum”). The Company has prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated February 4, 2020 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), (ii) a pricing term sheet, dated the date hereof, attached hereto as Schedule I, which includes pricing terms and other information with respect to the Securities and the Conversion Shares (the “Pricing Supplement”), and (iii) the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case, relating to the offer and sale of the Securities (the “Offering”). All references in this Agreement to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document (as defined herein) or the Final Offering Memorandum include, unless expressly stated otherwise, (i) all amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) all documents, financial statements and schedules and other information contained, incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference therein (and references in this Agreement to such information being “contained,” “included” or “stated” (and other references of like import) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum shall be deemed to mean all such information contained, incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference therein) and (iii) any offering memorandum “wrapper” to be used in connection with offers to sell, solicitations of offers to buy or sales of the Securities in non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are collectively referred to herein as the “Time of Sale Document.”

Concurrently with the Offering, the Company is entering into separate privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the Company’s 4.500% Convertible Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) to exchange $66,250,000 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes for a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock (the “Repurchase Shares”) pursuant to repurchase agreements (each, a “Repurchase Agreement,” and, collectively, the “Repurchase Agreements”) between such holder and the Company (such transaction, the “Notes Repurchase”).

2.               Terms of Offering. The Initial Purchaser has advised the Company, and the Company understands, that the Initial Purchaser will make offers to sell (the “Exempt Resales”) some or all of the Securities purchased by the Initial Purchaser hereunder on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Document to persons (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) whom the Initial Purchaser reasonably believes are “qualified institutional buyers” (“QIBs”) (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act). As used herein, “Time of Sale” means 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of this Agreement.

This Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents,” and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions.”

The option will expire 30 days after the date of the Final Offering Memorandum and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time by written notice being given to the Company by the Initial Purchaser; provided that such option may be exercised only once and provided further that such option cannot be exercised unless the Option Securities will be fungible with the Initial Securities for purposes of U.S. federal income tax laws. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate principal amount of Option Securities as to which the option is being exercised, the names in which the principal amount of Option Securities are to be registered, the denominations in which the Option Securities are to be issued and the date and time, as determined by the Initial Purchaser, when the Option Securities are to be delivered; provided, however, that this date and time shall not be earlier than the Initial Closing Date, and if later than the Initial Closing Date, shall not be earlier than the second business day after the date on which the option shall have been exercised nor later than the fifth business day after the date on which the option shall have been exercised.

(d)            The Company shall deliver to the Initial Purchaser one or more certificates representing the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, as the case may be, in definitive form, registered in such names and denominations as the Initial Purchaser may request, against payment by the Initial Purchaser of the purchase price therefor by immediately available federal funds bank wire transfer to such bank account or accounts as the Company shall designate to the Initial Purchaser at least two business days prior to the Closing. The certificates representing the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, as the case may be, in definitive form shall be made available to the Initial Purchaser for inspection at the New York City offices of White & Case LLP (or such other place as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchaser) not later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time one business day immediately preceding the applicable Closing Date. Securities to be represented by one or more definitive global securities in book-entry form will be deposited on the Closing Date, by or on behalf of the Company, with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or its designated custodian, and registered in the name of Cede & Co.

(e)             The Company shall deliver to the Initial Purchaser, on the date of this Agreement, a properly completed and executed Certification Regarding Beneficial Owners of Legal Entity Customers, together with copies of additional documentation necessary to comply with 31 CFR § 1010.230, and the Company undertakes to provide such additional supporting documentation as the Initial Purchaser may reasonably request in connection with the verification of the foregoing certification.

All Applicable Agreements that are material to the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, are in full force and effect and are legal, valid and binding obligations, other than as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum. There exists no condition that, with the passage of time or otherwise, would constitute (a) a violation of such Charter Documents, (b) a violation of Applicable Laws, or (b) a breach of or default or a “Debt Repayment Triggering Event” (as defined below) under any Applicable Agreement, except, in the case of clauses (b) and (c), for any such violations, breaches, defaults or Debt Repayment Triggering Events as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum. As used herein, a “Debt Repayment Triggering Event” means any event or condition that gives, or with the giving of notice or lapse of time would give, the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase,

Neither the execution, delivery or performance of the Documents nor the consummation of any of the Transactions (including the use of proceeds from the sale of the Securities as described in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum under the caption “Use of Proceeds”) will conflict with, violate, constitute a breach of or a default (with the passage of time or otherwise) or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event under, or result in the imposition of a Lien on any assets of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the imposition of any penalty or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event under or pursuant to (i) the Charter Documents, (ii) any Applicable Agreement, (iii) any Applicable Law or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award binding upon or affecting the Company, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) for such conflicts, violations, breaches, defaults or events that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(r)             No Consents. Assuming (i) that the purchasers in any Exempt Resales are QIBs and (ii) the accuracy of the Initial Purchaser’s representations and warranties in Section 6 herein, no consent, approval, authorization, order, filing or registration of or with any Governmental Authority or third party is required for execution, delivery or performance of the Documents or the consummation of the Transactions, except such (i) that have been made and are in full force and effect and (ii) as may be required under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of U.S. state or non-U.S. jurisdictions or other non-U.S. laws applicable to the purchase of the Securities outside the U.S. in connection with the Transactions.

(s)             No Material Proceedings.

(t)              All Necessary Permits. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries possess all licenses, permits, certificates, consents, orders, approvals and other authorizations from, and has made all declarations and filings with, all Governmental Authorities, presently required or necessary to own or lease, as the case may be, and to operate its properties and to carry on its businesses as now or proposed to be conducted as described in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum (“Permits”), except where the failure to possess such Permits would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has fulfilled and performed all of its obligations with respect to such Permit except where the failure to perform such obligations would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; no event has occurred which allows, or after

Page 10

notice or lapse of time would allow, revocation or termination of any such Permit or has resulted, or after notice or lapse of time would result, in any other material impairment of the rights of the holder of any such Permit; and none of the Company or the Subsidiaries has received or has any reason to believe it will receive any notice of any proceeding relating to revocation or modification of any such Permit, except as described in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum or except where such revocation or modification would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(u)            Title to Properties. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has good, marketable and valid title to all material real property owned by it and good title to all material personal property owned by it and good and valid title to all material leasehold estates in real and personal property being leased by it and, as of the applicable Closing Date, will be free and clear of all Liens other than those that do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries. All Applicable Agreements to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound are valid and enforceable against each of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, and are valid and enforceable against the other party or parties thereto and are in full force and effect with only such exceptions as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(v)            Tax Law Compliance. All material Tax (as hereinafter defined) returns required to be filed by the Company and each of the Subsidiaries have been filed and all such returns are true, complete and correct in all material respects. All material Taxes that are due from the Company and the Subsidiaries have been paid other than those (i) currently payable without penalty or interest or (ii) being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate accruals have been established in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States, applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved (“GAAP”). To the knowledge of the Company, there are no actual or proposed Tax assessments against the Company or any of the Subsidiaries that would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The accruals on the books and records of the Company and the Subsidiaries in respect of any material Tax liability for any period not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments of Tax for any such period. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Tax” and “Taxes” shall mean all U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state, and local taxes, and other assessments of a similar nature (whether imposed directly or through withholding), including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto.

(w)           Intellectual Property Rights. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed under, and has the right to use, all patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions, copyrights, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), trademarks, service marks, domain names and trade names (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) necessary for the conduct of its businesses and, as of the applicable Closing Date, the Intellectual Property will be free and clear of all Liens, other than those that do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries. The Company is not a party to, or bound by, any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the intellectual property rights of any other person or entity that are necessary to be described in the Time of

Page 11

Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum to avoid a material misstatement or omission and are not described therein. No claims or notices of any potential claim have been asserted by any person challenging the use of any such Intellectual Property by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property or any license or agreement related thereto, other than any claims that, if successful, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the intellectual property used by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries has been obtained or is hereby used by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries in violation of any contractual obligation binding on the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or, to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries’ knowledge, its officers, directors or employees or otherwise in violation of the rights of any person, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(x)            Compliance with Data Privacy Laws.

requirements would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(bb)         Use of Proceeds; Solvency; Going Concern. On the applicable Closing Date, after giving pro forma effect to the Offering and the use of proceeds therefrom described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum, the Company (i) will be Solvent (as hereinafter defined), (ii) will have sufficient capital for carrying on its business and (iii) will be able to pay its debts as they mature.

Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum, neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ee)          No Price Stabilization or Manipulation. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates has and, to the Company’s knowledge, no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that has constituted or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company, whether to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities or otherwise, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum, paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company.

(a)           Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities of any kind to which the Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent or such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:

(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto; or

(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state, in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

and, subject to the provisions hereof, will reimburse, as incurred, the Initial Purchaser and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and each such controlling persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating, defending against, settling, compromising, paying or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof; provided, however, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent (but only to the extent) that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense resulted solely from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Initial Purchaser to the Company consists of the information set forth in Section 12. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.

(b)          Indemnification by the Initial Purchaser. The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and its directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company or any such director, officer, employee or agent or controlling person may

Page 28

become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) have resulted solely from (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state in the Documents a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, subject to the provisions hereof, will reimburse, as incurred, the Company and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and each such controlling persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating, defending against, settling, compromising, paying or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof; provided, however, the Initial Purchaser will not be liable in any such case to the extent (but only to the extent) that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein as set forth in Section 12; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any liability that the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.

(c)             Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. As promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under Section 8(a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a proximate result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in Section 8(a) and (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to

Page 29

the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, designated by the Initial Purchaser in the case of Section 8(a) or the Company in the case of Section 8(b), representing the indemnified parties under such Section 8(a) or (b), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions), (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party and shall be paid as they are incurred. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such indemnifying party waived in writing its rights under this Section, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent.

(d)            Settlements. No indemnifying party shall be liable under this Section for any settlement of any claim or action (or threatened claim or action) effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if a claim or action settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified party from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the indemnified party is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by the indemnified party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional written release of the indemnified party, in form and substance satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time an indemnified party shall have

Page 30

requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for legal or other expenses as contemplated by Section 8(c) hereof, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of such judgment.

(e)            Contribution. In circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in this Section is unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), each indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contributions, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchaser pursuant to Section 8(b) above, on the other hand, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omissions, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.

(f)             Equitable Consideration. Each of the Company and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution determined pursuant to Section 8(e) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(e). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Initial Purchaser shall not be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of Section 8(e), each director, officer, employee and affiliate of the Initial Purchaser, and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange

Page 31

Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchaser, and each director, officer, and employee of the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

9.              Termination. The Initial Purchaser may terminate this Agreement (i) at any time prior to the applicable Closing Date by written notice to the Company if any of the events described in Sections 7(c) (No Material Adverse Change), 7(d) (No Hostilities) or 7(e) (No Suspension in Trading; Banking Moratorium) shall have occurred or if the Initial Purchaser shall decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted by this Agreement or (ii) on the applicable Closing Date if any condition described in Section 7 is not fulfilled or waived in writing by the Initial Purchaser on or prior to the applicable Closing Date Any termination pursuant to this Section shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Company to the Initial Purchaser, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the Initial Purchaser for all documented out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred, unless the termination results from any of the events described in Section 7(d) or Sections 7(e)(ii), (iii) or (v), and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Initial Purchaser, or (b) the Initial Purchaser to the Company, except, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

10.            Survival. The representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of the Company set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser, (ii) the acceptance of the Securities, and payment for them hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

11.            No Fiduciary Relationship. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Initial Purchaser is acting solely as initial purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities. The Company further acknowledges that the Initial Purchaser is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Initial Purchaser act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Company or their management, stockholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Initial Purchaser may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Securities, either before or after the date hereof. The Initial Purchaser hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Company, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Company hereby confirms its understanding and agreement to that effect. The Company and the Initial Purchaser agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Initial Purchaser to the Company regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Company. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that either of the Company may have against the Initial Purchaser with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or

RE:      PAR Technology Corporation (the “Company”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned is an owner of record or a beneficial owner of certain shares of common stock, par value $0.02 per share, of the Company (“Shares”) or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares.

The undersigned recognizes that the Offering will be of benefit to the undersigned and will benefit the Company. The undersigned acknowledges that you are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this letter agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”) in carrying out the Offering and, at a subsequent date, entering into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the Company with respect to the Offering.

In consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that the undersigned will not, and will cause any spouse or immediate family member (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), “Immediate Family Member”) of the spouse or the undersigned living in the undersigned’s household not to, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxxxx LLC (the “Initial Purchaser”) (which consent may be withheld in the Initial Purchaser’s sole discretion), directly or indirectly, (1) sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell (including without limitation any short sale), pledge, assign, transfer, establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of any Shares, options or warrants to acquire Shares, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Shares currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by the undersigned, the undersigned’s spouse or the Immediate Family Members of each of the foregoing living in the undersigned’s household, (2) enter into any swap, hedge or similar arrangement or agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic risk of ownership of all or any part of

the Shares, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Shares currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by the undersigned regardless of whether any such transaction is to be settled in securities, in cash or otherwise, (3) make any demand for or exercise any right to cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any Shares or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Shares or any other securities of the Company or (4) or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the close of trading on the date 90 days after the date of the Purchase Agreement (the “Lock-up Period”); provided, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to:

(i) the transfer of any or all of the Shares owned by the undersigned by gift to Immediate Family Members of the undersigned;

(ii) dispositions to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or Immediate Family Members of the undersigned;

(iii) dispositions of Shares to any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity all of the beneficial ownership interests of which are held by the undersigned and/or Immediate Family Members of the undersigned;

(iv) distributions of Shares to partners, members or stockholders of the undersigned or to the undersigned’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned;

(v) dispositions by will or intestate succession; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant this clause, any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Shares, shall state that such transfer is a disposition by will or intestate succession;

(vi) transfers pursuant to an order of a court or regulatory agency; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant this clause, any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Shares, shall state that such transfer is pursuant to an order of a court or regulatory agency, unless such a statement would be prohibited by any applicable law, regulation or order of a court or regulatory authority;

(vii) to transfers to a nominee or custodian of a person or entity to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (i) through (vi);

(viii) in the case of vesting of restricted stock or a similar security granted pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans or granted as an inducement award, the disposition of shares to the Company limited to that number of Shares as may be necessary to meet tax obligations related to such vesting (or related delivery) of such securities, provided, that any public report or filing under Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall state in the footnotes thereto that the filing relates to the vesting of restricted stock or similar

security and a related sale to meet tax obligations;

(ix) the entry into any trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, provided that such plan does not provide for any sales or other dispositions of Shares during the Lock-Up Period and no public announcement or public disclosure of entry into such plan is made or required to be made;

(x) transactions relating to Shares acquired by the undersigned in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering;

(xi) the repurchase of Shares by the Company in connection with termination of the undersigned’s employment with the Company; and

provided, however, that (A) in the case of the transactions in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and in the case of clause (vii) in respect of a transaction in clause (i) through (iv) above, it shall be a condition to such transfer that the transferee executes and delivers to Xxxxxxxxx LLC an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Shares subject to the provisions of this letter agreement, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares, except in accordance with this letter agreement and (B) in the case of the transactions in clauses (i) through (iv) and (x) above, and in the case of clause (vii) in respect of a transaction in clause (i) through (iv) and (x) above, it shall be a condition to such transfer that no public disclosure and no filing by any party to the transfer (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Exchange Act shall be required nor shall be voluntarily made reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of the Shares in connection with such transfer or distribution prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period (as the same may be extended pursuant to the terms hereof).

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares held by the undersigned except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

This letter agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and the respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, and assigns of the undersigned.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power, capacity and authority to enter into this letter agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

If (i) the Company notifies the Initial Purchaser in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the Purchase Agreement is not executed before February 29, 2020 or (iii) the Purchase Agreement (other than the provisions thereof that survive termination) terminates or is terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Notes, then in each case, this Lock-up Agreement shall automatically, and without any action on the part of any other party, terminate and be of no further force and effect, and the undersigned shall automatically be released from the obligations under this Lock-up Agreement.

This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
