P ART I I tem 1. Business. OVERVIEW USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”, “We”, “USAT”, or “Our”) was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in January 1992. We are a provider of technology-enabled solutions that facilitate electronic payment transactions and value-added services primarily within the unattended Point of Sale (“POS”) market. We are a leading provider in the small ticket, beverage and food vending industry and are expanding our solutions to other unattended market segments, such as amusement, commercial laundry, kiosk and others. Since our founding, we have designed and marketed systems and solutions that facilitate electronic payment options, as well as telemetry and machine-to-machine (“M2M”) services which include the ability to remotely monitor, control, and report on the results of distributed assets containing our electronic payment solutions. Historically, these distributed assets have relied on cash for payment in the form of coins or bills, whereas, our systems allow them to accept cashless payments such as through the use of credit or debit cards and contactless forms, such as mobile payment. We derive the majority of our revenues from license and transaction fees related to our ePort Connect service. Connections to our service stem from the sale or lease of our POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software or the servicing of similar third-party installed POS terminals. The majority of ePort Connect customers pay a monthly fee plus a blended transaction rate on the transaction dollar volume processed by the Company. Customers with higher expected transaction rates might pay a lower or no ePort Connect monthly fee, but a higher blended transaction rate on dollar volume processed by the Company. Connections to the ePort Connect service, therefore, are the most significant driver of the Company’s revenues, particularly revenues from license and transaction fees. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately 214,000 connections to its ePort Connect service, compared to approximately 164,000 connections as of June 30, 2012, representing a 30% increase. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company processed approximately 129 million cashless transactions totaling approximately $219 million in transaction dollars, representing a 26% increase in transaction volume and a 28% increase in dollars processed from the 103 million cashless transactions totaling approximately $171 million during the previous fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. The above chart shows the increase, during the last four fiscal years, in the number of connections, revenues and the dollar value of transactions handled by us. The vertical bars reflect total revenues, broken down by license and transaction fees and equipment revenues. The solid line reflects the number of connections to our ePort Connect service, as of the end of each of the last four fiscal years, as indicated by its mid-point on the revenue bar for each year. Similarly, the dollar value of transactions handled by us during each of the last four fiscal years is indicated by the dotted line and its mid-point on the revenue bar for each year. Our solutions have been designed to simplify the transition to cashless for traditionally cash-only based businesses. As such, they are turnkey and include our comprehensive ePort Connect service and POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software able to process traditional magnetic stripe credit and debit cards, contactless credit and debit cards and mobile payments. Services through ePort Connect are maintained on our proprietary operating systems and include merchant account setup on behalf of the customer, automatic processing and settlement, sales reporting, 24x7 customer support and value-added, optional services. In addition, the functionality of our solutions include the flexibility to execute a variety of payment applications on a single system, transaction security, connectivity options, compliance with certification standards, and centralized, accurate, real-time sales and inventory data to manage distributed assets (wireless telemetry and M2M). 4 Our customers range from global food service organizations to small operators primarily in the self-serve, small ticket retail markets including beverage and food vending, amusement and arcade, commercial laundry, car wash, tolls, and various other self-serve kiosk applications; and equipment developers or manufacturers who incorporate our ePort Connect service into their product offerings. The Company also manufactures and sells energy management products that reduce the electrical power consumption of equipment, such as refrigerated vending machines and glass front coolers, thus reducing the electrical energy costs associated with operating this equipment. We derive equipment revenues through the sale of our energy management products both in the United States and in approximately seven countries worldwide. We have a reliable history in cashless payments and a recognized brand name, value proposition for our customers and reputation of innovation in our product and services. We believe that the foregoing positions allow us to capitalize on industry trends. THE INDUSTRY We operate primarily in the small ticket electronic payments industry and, more specifically, the unattended POS market. We also have the ability to accept cashless payment “on the go” through mobile-based payment services, which are generally higher ticket transactions. Our solutions facilitate electronic payments in industries that have traditionally relied on cash transactions. We believe the following industry trends will drive growth in demand for electronic payment systems in general and more specifically within the markets we serve: Shift toward electronic payment transactions and away from cash and checks There has been a shift away from paper-based methods of payment, including cash and checks, towards electronic-based methods of payment. According to The Nilson Report, December 2012, paper-based methods of payment continued to decline in 2010, representing 38.97% of transaction dollars measured compared to 50.45% in 2005. The four card-based systems—credit, debit, prepaid, and electronic benefits transfer—generated $4.22 trillion in the United States in 2011, 50.6% of transaction dollars measured, compared to 42.3% in 2006. By 2016, The Nilson Report projects spending at merchants in the U.S., from the four card-based system to grow to $6.5 trillion, or 62.8% or total transaction dollars measured. Increase in Consumer and Merchant/Operator Demand for Electronic Payments Increase in Consumer Demand . The unattended, vending and kiosk POS market has historically been dominated by cash purchases. However, oftentimes, cash purchases at unattended POS locations represent a cumbersome transaction for the consumer because they do not have the correct monetary value (paper or coin), or the consumer does not have the ability to convert their bills into coins. We believe electronic payment system providers such as USA Technologies that can meet consumers’ demand within the unattended market will be able to offer retailers, card associations, card issuers and payment processors and business owners an expanding value proposition at the POS. Increase in Merchant/Operator Demand . Increasingly, merchants and operators of unattended payment locations (e.g., vending machines, car wash, tabletop games, etc.) are utilizing electronic payment alternatives as a means to improve business results. The Company works with its customers to help them drive increased revenue of their distributed assets through this expanded market opportunity and many continue to see positive results. In addition, electronic payment systems can provide merchants and operators real-time sales and inventory data utilized for back-office reporting and forecasting, helping them to manage their business more efficiently. Increase in Demand for Networked Assets . M2M (machine-to-machine) technology includes capturing value from wireless modules and electronic devices to improve business productivity and customer service. The term M2M describes any kind of 2-way communication system between geographically distributed devices through a centrally managed software application without human intervention. As such, the Company’s integrated POS and ePort Connect remote data management capabilities fall into this category of solution. For example, the Company’s new ePortGO solution integrates cashless payment with software and hardware specific to the taxi and for-hire vehicle industry. In addition, networked assets can provide valuable information regarding consumers’ purchasing patterns and payment preferences, allowing operators to more effectively tailor their offerings to consumers. According to a Verizon Wireless 2011 whitepaper (When Machines Talk, Businesses Listen) within ten years the number of machines that can be connected should exceed sixty billion units. The Company believes that its expertise in integrating cashless payments, its scalable network data capacity, experience with high transaction volume and high quality and reliable data management capabilities make it well suited for the growing opportunities in the M2M market. ■ the shift toward electronic payment transactions and away from cash and checks; ■ the increase in both consumer and merchant/operator demand for electronic transaction functionality; and ■ improving POS technology and NFC equipped mobile phone payment technology. 5 POS Technology and NFC Equipped Mobile Phone Payment Improvements Consumer Interest in Mobile Payment. We believe that NFC-enabled POS terminals and digital wallet applications, such as ISIS, Google Wallet and others, stand to benefit from these evolving trends in mobile payment. Digital wallet is essentially a digital service, accessed via the web or a mobile phone application that serves as a substitute for the traditional credit or debit card. Providers and consumers can also benefit from other ancillary offerings such as coupons and loyalty programs. With over 50% of the Company’s connections NFC-enabled (in addition to being magnetic stripe enabled) as of June 30, 2013, we believe that we are well-positioned to benefit from this emerging space. OUR TECHNOLOGY-BASED SOLUTION Our solutions have been designed to be turnkey and include ePort Connect service and POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software able to process traditional magnetic stripe credit and debit cards, contactless credit and debit cards, as well as NFC equipped mobile phones that allows consumers to make payments with their cell phones. We believe that our ability to bundle our products and services, as well as the ability to tailor them to individual customer needs, makes it easy and efficient for our customers to adopt and deploy our technology, and results in a service unmatched in the small-ticket, unattended retail market today. The Product . The Company offers its customers several different devices or software to connect their distributed assets. These range from our QuickConnect™ Web service and encrypted magnetic stripe card readers to our ePort ® hardware that can be attached to the door of a stand-alone terminal. The Network . Our network is designed to transmit payment information from our terminals for processing and sales and diagnostic data for storage and reporting to our customers. Also, the network, through server-based software applications, provides remote management information, and enables control of the networked device’s functionality. Through our network we have the ability to upload software and update devices remotely enabling us to manage the devices (e.g., change protocol functionality, provide software upgrades, and change terminal display messages). The Connectivity Mediums. The client devices (described above) are interconnected for the transfer of our customers’ data through our ePort Connect network that provides multiple connectivity options such as phone line, ethernet, and wireless. Greater wireless connectivity options, coverage and reliability have allowed us to service a greater number of geographically dispersed customer locations. Additionally, we make it easy for our customers to deploy wireless solutions by acting as a single point of contact. We have contracted with Verizon Wireless and AT&T in the United States and Rogers Wireless in Canada in order to supply our customers with wireless network coverage. Data Security. We are listed on the VISA Global Registry of Service Providers, meaning that VISA has reviewed and accepted our Report on Compliance (RoC) from an authorized PCI assessor as a PCI Level 1 Service Provider. Our entry on that list is valid for one year and was last updated January 31, 2013. The VISA listing can be found online at http://www.visa.com/splisting/searchGrsp.do OUR SERVICES For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, license and transaction fees generated by our ePort Connect ® service represented 84% of the Company’s revenues. ePort Connect is a solution in the marketplace that provides customers with all of the following, under one cohesive service umbrella: ● Diverse POS options. Ability to connect to a broad product line of cashless acceptance devices or software. ● Card Processing Services. Through our existing relationships with card processors and card associations, we provide merchant account and terminal ID set up, pre-negotiated discounted fees on small ticket purchases, and direct electronic funds transfers (EFTs) to our customers’ bank accounts for all settled card transactions as well as ensure compliance with current processing regulations. ● Wireless Connectivity. We manage the wireless account activation, distribution, and the relationship with wireless providers for our customers, if needed. ● Customer/Consumer Services. We support our installed base by providing 24-hour help desk support, repairs, and replacement of impaired system solutions. In addition, all inbound billing inquiries are handled through a 24-hour help desk, thereby eliminating the need for our customers to deal with consumer billing inquiries and potential chargebacks. ● Online Sales Reporting. Via the USALive online reporting system, we provide customers with a host of sales and operational data, including information regarding their credit and cash transactions, user configuration, reporting by machine and region, by date range and transaction type, data reports for operations and finance, graphical reporting of sales, and condition monitoring for equipment service, as well as activation of new devices and redeployments. 6 We enter into a processing and licensing agreement, or ePort Connect Services Agreement, with our customers pursuant to which we act as a provider of cashless financial services for the customer’s distributed asset, and the customer agrees to pay us an activation fee, monthly service fees, and transaction processing fees. Our agreements are generally cancelable by the customer upon thirty to sixty days notice to us. It typically takes thirty to sixty days for a new connection to begin contributing to the Company’s license and transaction fee revenues. The Company counts its ePort connections upon shipment of an active terminal to a customer under contract, at which time activation on its network is performed by the Company, and the terminal is capable of conducting business via the Company’s network and related services. An ePort connection does not necessarily mean that the unit is actually installed by the customer on a machine, or that the unit has begun processing transactions, or that the Company has begun receiving monthly service fees in connection with the unit. Rather, at the time of shipment of the ePort, the customer becomes obligated to pay the one-time activation fee, and is obligated to pay monthly service fees in accordance with the terms of the customer’s contract with the Company. OUR PRODUCTS ePort® is the Company’s core device, which is currently being utilized in self-service, unattended markets such as vending, amusement and arcade, car wash, and various other kiosk applications. Our ePort® product facilitates cashless payments by capturing payment information and transmitting it to our network for authorization with the payment system (e.g., credit card processors). Additional capabilities of our ePort® consist of control/access management by authorized users, collection of audit information (e.g., date and time of sale and sales amount), diagnostic information of the host equipment, and transmission of this data back to our network for web-based reporting, or to a compatible remote management system. Our ePort products are available in several distinctive modular configurations, and as hardware, software or as an API Web service, offering our customers flexibility to install a POS solution that best fits their needs and customer demands. Other forms of our ePort technology include: ● M2M Telemetry and DEX data transfer. USA Technologies is able to push DEX data to customers’ route management systems through its DEX partner program. USA Technologies operates within the VDI (Vending Data Interchange) standards established by NAMA (National Automatic Merchandising Association) and sends DEX files compatible with most major remote management software systems. ● Over-the-Air Update Capabilities. Automatic over-the-air updates to software, settings, and security protocol from our network to our ePort card reader keep our customers’ hardware up-to-date and enable customers to benefit from any advancement made after their hardware or software purchase. ● Value-added Services. Access to additional services such as MORE , our loyalty and prepaid program, two-tier pricing, special promotions such our nationwide Isis mobile payment and loyalty promotion for vending customers, as well as a menu of hardware purchasing options including JumpStart, our terminal-included service option. ● Deployment Planning. Access to services to help operators successfully deploy cashless payment systems and integrated solutions that is based on our extensive market and customer experience data. ● ePort Edge™ product became available for sale to customers during Fiscal 2009. The ePort Edge™ is a one-piece design and is intended for those customers who require a magnetic swipe-only cashless system with basic features at a lower price point. ● ePort® G-8 is a PCI compliant two-piece design that supports traditional magnetic stripe credit/debit cards and contactless cards. The ePort G8 telemeter is also available as a stand-alone DEX telemetry solution. ● ePort® G-9 was introduced in Fiscal 2013 and is expected to be available in Fiscal 2014. It’s designed to offer all the features of the G-8 plus new features that support expanded acceptance options, consumer engagement offerings and advanced diagnostics. ● ePort® G-10 was introduced in Fiscal 2013 and is expected to be available in Fiscal 2014. It’s expected to include all of the added features of the G-9, plus a larger screen for messaging and consumer interaction as well as expanded contact and contactless EMV features. ● QuickConnect™ was introduced in August 2012. QuickConnect™ is a Web service that allows a client application to securely interface with the Company’s ePort Connect service. QuickConnect™ essentially replaces ePort SDK (software development kit), which captured our ePort® technology in software form for PC-based devices such as kiosks. ● eSuds®, our solution developed for the commercial laundry industry that enables laundry operators to provide customers cashless transactions via the use of their credit cards, debit cards and other payment mediums such as student IDs. Effective with the April 2013 mutually exclusive agreement with Setomatic Systems, we are no longer selling the eSuds® solution to new customers. 7 Energy Management Products . Our Company offers energy conservation products (“Energy Misers”®) that reduce the electrical power consumption of various types of existing equipment, such as vending machines, glass front coolers and other “always-on” appliances by allowing the equipment to selectively operate in a power saving mode when the full power mode is not necessary. Each of the Company’s Energy Miser® products utilizes occupancy sensing technology to determine when the surrounding area is vacant or occupied. The Energy Miser® then utilizes occupancy data, product temperatures, and an energy saving algorithm to selectively control certain high-energy components (e.g., compressor and fan) to realize electrical power savings over the long-term use of the equipment. Customers of our VendingMiser® product benefit from reduced energy consumption costs, depending on regional energy costs, machine type, and utilization of the machine. Our Energy Misers® also reduce the overall stress loads on the equipment, helping to reduce associated maintenance costs. Energy Miser products are not currently networked to our ePort Connect service. SPECIFIC MARKETS WE SERVE Our current customers are primarily in the self-serve, small ticket retail markets including beverage and food vending and kiosk, commercial laundry, car wash, tolls, amusement and gaming, and office coffee. While these industry sectors represent only a small fraction of our total market potential, as described below, these are the areas where we have gained the most traction. In addition to being our primary markets, we believe these sectors serve as a proof-of-concept for other unattended POS industry applications. Vending. According to Vending Times’ 2012 Census of the Industry, annual U.S. sales in the vending industry sector were estimated to be approximately $43 billion in 2011 transacted by over 6 million machines. The Company believes these machines represent a significant market opportunity for electronic payment conversion when compared to the Company’s existing ePort Connect service base and the overall low rate of industry adoption to date. For example, in another study conducted by Automatic Merchandiser (State of the Vending Industry, June 2013) that included a representative 5.4 million machines, cashless adoption was projected at only 7% in 2012, up from 4% in 2011. The increase was attributed to higher product price points, increased acceptance of debit and credit in retail for smaller purchases, Gen X and Y/millennials joining the workforce to become vending consumers and the growing research about how cashless payment systems can increase sales. With the continued shift to electronic payments and the advancement in mobile and POS technology, we believe the traditional beverage and food vending industry will continue to look to cashless payments and telemetry systems to improve their business results. Kiosk . According to IHL Consulting Group’s August 2012 North American Self-Service Kiosks Market Study, which defines, for purposes of their study, a kiosk as a self-standing, technology-based, unmanned device deployed across six retail and hospitality environments, approximately $926 billion will be transacted through self-service kiosks in 2013, with compound annual growth for the subsequent three years of seven percent (7%). We believe that kiosks are becoming increasingly popular as credit, debit or contactless payment options enable kiosks to sell an increased variety of items. In addition, the study points to the increasing trend toward self-sufficiency, where time is the most important commodity of the consumer. As merchants continue to seek new ways to reach their customers through kiosk applications, we believe the need for a reliable cashless payment provider experienced with machine integration, PCI compliance and cashless payment services designed specifically for the unattended market will be of increasing value in this market. Our existing kiosk customers integrate with our cashless payment services via our QuickConnect™ Web service using one of our encrypted readers or ePort POS technologies. Laundry . Our primary targets in laundry consist of the coin-operated commercial laundry and multi-housing laundry markets. According to the Coin Laundry Association, the U.S. commercial laundry industry is comprised of 30,000-35,000 laundromats that our partner, Setomatic Systems, estimates translates to roughly 2.5 million commercial washers and dryers. Additionally, an industry participant indicates there are approximately 3.4 million machines in the multi-housing market. While no revenue figures are available for the multi-housing market, the Coin Laundry Association estimates gross revenue in the laundromat market at nearly $5 billion annually. Mobile Merchant. New mobile-based payment acceptance technology has made a transformational impact on an entire base of merchants that previously had almost no access to electronic-based payments. Goldman Sachs (Equity Research Report, June 19, 2012) sees the arrival of mobile technology at the micro/small merchant level addressing an estimated 13 million U.S.-based micro merchants that are likely to benefit from the ability to accept electronic payment from mobile devices. The Company believes that its mobile-based acceptance product and existing turnkey service platform align well with the market’s need for integrated, mobile payment solutions. ePortGO™ is an example of how we have utilized ePortMobile to address the specific needs of customers in the taxi and for-hire vehicle industry. IBISWorld estimates revenues in the taxi and for-hire vehicle industry at $11 billion in the U.S. According to the Taxicab, Limousine and Paratransit Association, there are approximately 12,400 limousine companies operating 126,000 vehicles and approximately 6,300 companies operating 171,000 taxicabs throughout the United States. Municipalities such as New York City and Washington D.C. have recently been mandating the use of in-vehicle credit/debit card acceptance and navigation features in taxis. ● ePortMobile™ is a mobile acceptance solution for credit and debit cards that is supported by USAT’s ePort Connect® service. ePortMobile™ is available as a download from the iTunes and Google Play Store and is also available as an All-In-One solution that includes the phone and data plan. ● ePortGO™ was introduced in August 2013. ePortGO™ integrates our ePortMobile solution and ePort Connect service with software developed by eTaxi USA, LLC, to address the opportunities for streamlined business process and credit and debit card acceptance in the taxi and for-hire vehicle market. 8 OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS We believe that we benefit from a number of advantages gained through our over twenty year history in our industry. They include: OUR GROWTH OPPORTUNITY Our objective is to enhance our position as a leading provider of technology that enables electronic payment transactions and value-added services primarily at small-ticket, self-service, retail locations such as vending, kiosks, commercial laundry, car wash, and other similar markets. The Company believes its service-approach business model creates a high-margin stream of recurring revenues that will create a foundation for long-term value and continued growth. The key elements of our strategy are to: Drive Growth in Connections Leverage Existing Customers/Partners. We have a solid base of key customers across multiple markets, particularly in vending, that have deployed our solutions to just a small portion of their deployed base. As a result, they are a key component of our plan to drive sales. We have worked to build these relationships, drive future deployments, and develop customized network interfaces. Our customers have seen the benefits of our products and services first-hand and we believe represent the largest opportunity to scale our solution. 1. One-Stop Shop, End-to-End Solution. We believe that our ability to offer our customers one point of contact through a bundled cashless payment solution makes it easy and efficient for our customers to adopt and deploy our electronic payment solutions and results in a service unmatched in the small ticket, self-service retail market today. To our knowledge, other cashless payment solutions available in the market today require the operator to set up their own accounts for cashless processing and manage multiple service providers (i.e., hardware terminal manufacturer, wireless network provider, and/or credit card processor). We interface directly with our card processor and wireless service provider, and with our hardware solutions are able to offer a bundled solution to our customers. 2. Trusted Brand Name. The ePort and Energy Miser brands have a strong national reputation for quality, reliability, and innovation. We believe that card associations, payment processors, and merchants/operators trust our system solutions to handle financial transactions in a secure operating environment. Our trusted brand name is best exemplified by our high level of customer retention, over two dozen exclusive three-year agreements with customers for use of our ePort Connect service signed in fiscal 2013, national level agreements with partners like Visa and Verizon Wireless and several one-way exclusive relationships, which we have solidified with several leading organizations within the unattended POS industry, including Setomatic Systems and AMI Entertainment Network, Inc., Innovative Foto, and Air-Serv. 3. Market Leadership. We believe we have the largest installed base of unattended POS electronic payment systems in the unattended small-ticket retail market for food and beverage vending and we continue to expand to other adjacent markets. As of June 30, 2013, we had approximately 214,000 connections to our network. Our installed base supports our sales and marketing infrastructure by enhancing our ability to establish or expand our market position. Finally, we believe our installed base provides several opportunities for referrals for new business, either from the merchant or operator of the deployed asset or through one of our several strategic relationships. 4. Attractive Value Proposition for Our Customers . We believe that our solutions provide our customers an attractive value proposition. Our solutions make possible increased purchases by consumers who in the past were limited to the physical cash value on hand while making a purchase at an unattended terminal, thereby increasing the universe of potential customers and the buying activity of those customers. In addition, offerings and services such as Two-Tier Pricing and M2M telemetry provide operators with the ability to pursue additional opportunities to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. In addition, new consumer engagement services further extend the potential for customers to build new revenue opportunities, customer loyalty and brand distinction. 5. Increasing Scale and Financial Stability. Due to the continued growth in connections to the Company’s ePort Connect service, during the 2013 fiscal year, 84% of the Company’s revenues were from licensing and processing fees which are recurring in nature. We believe that this growing scale provides us improved financial stability and the footprint to market and distribute our products more effectively and in more markets than most of our competitors. 6. Customer-Focused Research and Development. Our research and development initiatives focus on adding features and functionality to our electronic payment solutions based on customer input and emerging market trends. Since we began operations in 1992, we have been granted 86 patents (US and International) and currently have 6 patent applications pending and have generated considerable intellectual proprietary and know-how associated with creating a seamless, end-to-end experience for our customers. 9 Expand Distribution and Sales Reach. We are intently focused on driving profitable growth through efficient sales channels. Added sales resources and new distribution relationships have led to approximately 1,750 new ePort Connect customers as well as increased penetration in markets such as amusement and arcade, and commercial laundry in fiscal year 2013. Further Penetrate Attractive Adjacent Markets. We plan to continue to introduce our turnkey solutions to various markets such as the broad-based kiosk market, car wash and other similar markets by leveraging our expertise in cashless payment integration combined with the capacity and uniqueness of our ePort Connect solution that aligns with the needs of these customers for cashless transactions, sales analysis, remote monitoring, and other services. Capitalize on Opportunities in International Markets . We are currently focused on the U.S. and Canadian markets for our ePort devices and related ePort Connect service but may seek to establish a presence in electronic payment markets in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. In order to do so, however, we would have to invest in additional sales and marketing and research and development resources targeted towards these regions. At this time, the Company believes the most efficient route to these markets will be achieved by optimizing and coordinating opportunities with its global partners and customers. Our energy management devices have been shipped to customers located in North America, Europe, and Asia. Expanding the Value of our Service Capitalize on the emerging NFC and growing mobile payments trends. With over 50% of our connected base NFC and mobile payments ready, the Company believes that the continued increase in consumer preferences towards contactless payments represents a significant opportunity for the Company to further drive adoption and new marketing programs. Continuous Innovation. We continue enhancing our solutions in order to satisfy our customers and the end-consumers relying on our products at the POS locations. Our product innovation team enhances the design, size, and speed of data transmission, as well as security and compatibility with other electronic payment solution providers’ technologies. We believe our continued innovation will lead to further adoption in the unattended POS payments market. Leverage Intellectual Property . We have been granted 86 patents which assert various claims, including claims relating to unattended payment processing, networking and energy management devices. In addition, we own numerous trademarks, copyrights, design rights and trade secrets. We will continue to attempt to leverage this intellectual property to add value for customers, attempt to attain an increased share of the market, and attempt to generate licensing revenues. SALES AND MARKETING The Company’s sales strategy includes both direct sales and channel development, depending on the particular dynamics of each of our markets. Our marketing strategy is diversified and includes media relations, direct mail, conferences, and client referrals. As of August 31, 2013, the Company was marketing and selling its products through its full and part-time staff consisting of seventeen people. Direct Sales Our direct sales efforts are primarily focused on the beverage and food vending industry, although we continue to further develop our presence in our ancillary market segments. Indirect Sales/ Distribution We have entered into agreements with resellers and distributors in connection with our energy management products. As part of our strategy to expand our sales reach while optimizing resources, we also have agreements with select resellers in the car wash, amusement and arcade, and vending markets in addition to a strategic marketing relationship in the commercial laundry market that makes the Company the exclusive service provider to Setomatic Systems’ POS offering, SpyderWash. Marketing Our marketing strategy includes advertising and outreach initiatives designed to build brand awareness, make clear USAT’s competitive strengths, and prove the value of our services to our target markets-both for existing and prospective customers. Activities include creating company and product presence on the web including www.usatech.com and www.energymisers.com, digital advertising, SEO (Search Engine Optimization), and social media; the use of direct mail and email campaigns; educational and instructional online training sessions; advertising in vertically-oriented trade publications; participating in industry tradeshows and events; and working closely with customers and key strategic partners on co-marketing opportunities and new, innovative solutions that drive customer and consumer adoption of our services. 10 IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS Verizon Wireless In April 2011, we signed an agreement to use Verizon’s digital wireless wide area network for transport of data, including credit card transactions and inventory management data. The initial term of the agreement is three years, expiring April 2014. In August 2013, we signed an amendment to this agreement which extended the term until April 2016. At the end of the term, the agreement automatically renews for successive one month periods unless terminated by either party upon thirty days’ notice. On September 21, 2011, the Company and Verizon entered into a Joint Marketing Addendum (the “Verizon Agreement”) which amended the agreement described above. Pursuant to the Verizon Agreement, the Company and Verizon would work together to help identify business opportunities for the Company’s products and services. Verizon may introduce the Company to existing or potential Verizon customers that Verizon believes are potential purchasers of the Company’s products or services, and may attend sales calls with the Company made to these customers. The Company and Verizon would collaborate on marketing and communications materials that would be used by each of them to educate and inform customers regarding their joint marketing work. Verizon has the right to list the Company’s products and services in its Data Solutions Guide for use by its sales and marketing employees and in its external website. The Company has agreed to pay to Verizon a one-time referral fee for each customer introduced to the Company by Verizon that would become a customer of the Company. The Verizon Agreement is terminable by either party upon 45 days notice. VISA As of October 12, 2011, following implementation of the Durbin Amendment, we entered into a one-year agreement with VISA to establish a new, fixed debit interchange rate. On October 8, 2012, we entered into a first amendment pursuant to which the original one-year term was extended until October 31, 2013, and which provided for an automatic renewal for an additional year, or until October 31, 2014. Compass/Foodbuy As per its website, Compass is a $12 billion organization with locations worldwide, is the leader in vending, food service management and support services, is the largest national vending operating company, has over 500,000 associations, and is one of the leading owners and operators of vending machines in the United States. Compass is a division of UK-based Compass Group PLC. On June 30, 2009, we entered into a Master Purchase Agreement (“MPA”) with Foodbuy, LLC (“Foodbuy”), the procurement company for Compass Group USA, Inc. (“Compass”) and other customers. The MPA provides, among other things, that for a period of thirty-six months, Foodbuy on behalf of Compass shall utilize USAT as the sole credit or debit card vending system hardware and related software and connect services provider for not less than seventy-five percent of the vending machines of Compass utilizing cashless payments solutions. The MPA also provides that for a period of thirty-six months from the effective date of the agreement, USAT shall be a preferred supplier and provider to Foodbuy and its customers, including Compass, of USAT’s products and services. On July 1, 2009, USAT and Compass, in conjunction with the MPA described above, entered into a Quick Start Master Lease Agreement pursuant to which Compass could purchase ePort™ devices utilizing USAT’s Quick Start Program. The Quick Start Program enables Compass to acquire USAT’s ePort™ devices through a 36 month non-cancellable lease. Under the Quick Start Program, Compass will pay USAT a monthly amount, per terminal, that includes the lease of the ePort™ hardware and activation fee. Compass would be able to utilize the Quick Start Program to acquire ePorts during the three year term of the Master Purchase Agreement referred to above. In addition, on July 1, 2009, USAT and Compass, in conjunction with the MPA described above, also entered into a new three year ePort Connect Services Agreement pursuant to which USAT will provide Compass with all card processing, data, network, communications and financial services, and DEX telemetry data services required in connection with all Compass vending machines utilizing ePorts. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, Foodbuy and its customers, including Compass, represented 23% of our total revenues. The agreement had an initial term of thirty-six months, and automatically renews for successive one year periods unless terminated by either party upon sixty days’ notice prior to the end of any such one year renewal period. AMI Entertainment On August 22, 2011, we entered into an exclusive three-year agreement with AMI Entertainment (“AMI”) as their exclusive processor of credit and debit cards and other electronic payments in connection with equipment operated on AMI’s network in the U.S. and Canada. The agreement is subject to renewal for one year periods thereafter, subject to notice of non-renewal by either party. AMI manufactures various types of amusement, entertainment and music equipment for sale to third party users. 11 Setomatic Systems In April 2013, we entered into an three-year exclusive agreement with Setomatic Systems (“Setomatic”), a privately owned and operated developer and manufacturer of both open and closed loop card payment systems, drop coin meters and electronic timers for the commercial laundry industry. Under the terms of agreement, the Company, through our ePort Connect® service, will act as the exclusive service provider for all credit/debit card processing for Setomatic’s SpyderWash, a credit/debit card acceptance product. Conversely, the Company will market its ePort Connect service in the United States laundry market exclusively through Setomatic. In addition, the agreement included the transition of Setomatic’s existing cashless connections to the Company. Isis During Fiscal 2013, the Company entered into a strategic marketing agreement with Isis, a mobile commerce joint venture comprised of major telecommunication companies; namely, Verizon Wireless, AT&T Mobility and T-Mobile USA. As part of the agreement, the Company was a participant in the Isis Mobile Wallet in their two launch markets, Austin and Salt Lake City, during Fiscal 2013 for which it received financial and marketing support from Isis. In addition, in April 2013, the Company announced, with Isis, what we believe is the largest nationwide loyalty program in vending. The promotion is designed to allow any of our vending customers nationwide the ability to participate in Isis Mobile Wallet payment and loyalty rewards program, provided that their locations are enabled for Isis SmartTap technology for loyalty tracking. Consumers using the Isis Mobile Wallet at one of these terminals would be eligible to receive their fifth vend free. Under the terms of the agreement covering the promotion, Isis, through the Company, would essentially reimburse our vending customers for that free vend. While the Company continues to market and prepare customers for the nationwide promotion, the timing and success of this promotion will be highly dependent on the strategies and timing of events that under the control of Isis. According to a press release issued by Isis on July 30, 2013, Isis announced plans for its nationwide roll out later in the 2013 calendar year, following successful pilots in Austin, Texas and Salt Lake City, Utah. JUMP START PROGRAM In order to accelerate adoption in the marketplace as well as increase the Company’s license and transaction fee revenues, the Company commenced a program for its customers referred to as the JumpStart Program (“JumpStart”) in December 2009. Pursuant to the JumpStart Program, customers acquire the ePort cashless terminal at no upfront cost by paying a higher monthly service fee, avoiding the need to make a major upfront capital investment. The Company would continue to own the ePort device utilized by its customer. At the time of the shipment of the ePort device, the customer is obligated to pay to the Company the standard one-time activation fee, is obligated to pay monthly ePort Connect service fees in accordance with the terms of the customer’s contract with the Company, and the Company receives transaction processing fees generated from the device. In fiscal 2013, the Company funded approximately 70% of its net connections through JumpStart. The Company anticipates using the JumpStart Program for approximately 60% to 65% of its anticipated new (not net) connections in Fiscal 2014 as a result of its continued diversification strategies that include more software-based connections to its ePort Connect service as well as a broader menu of purchasing programs for its ePort devices. MANUFACTURING The Company utilizes independent third party companies for the manufacturing of its products. Our manufacturing process mainly consists of quality assurance of materials and testing of finished goods received from our contract manufacturers. We have not entered into a long-term contract with our contract manufacturers, nor have we agreed to commit to purchase certain quantities of materials or finished goods from our manufacturers beyond those submitted under routine purchase orders, typically covering short-term forecasts. COMPETITION We are a leading provider and believe we have the largest installed base of unattended POS electronic payment systems in the small ticket, beverage and food vending industry. What we consider to be our competitive advantages are described above under “OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS.” During the last fiscal year, our competitors have begun to increasingly and actively market products and services that compete with our products and services in this vending space including manufacturers who may include in their new vending machines their own (or another third party’s) cashless payment systems and services other than our systems and services. These major competitors include Crane Payment Systems, MEI, Coin Acceptors Inc. (Coinco), Cantaloupe Systems, Inc. and Coca-Cola Refreshments USA, Inc. While we believe our products and services are superior to our competitors, many of our competitors are much larger enterprises and have substantially greater revenues. In addition to these competitors, there are also numerous credit card processors that offer card processing services to traditional retail establishments that could decide to offer similar services to the industries that we serve. In the cashless laundry market, our joint solution with Setomatic Systems competes with hardware manufacturers, who provide joint solutions to their customers in partnership with payment processors, and with at least one competitor who provides an integrated hardware and payment processing solution. 12 CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS Financial instruments that subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts and finance receivables. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. Approximately 41% and 46% of the Company’s trade accounts and finance receivables at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were concentrated with one and two customer(s), respectively. Approximately 37%, 43%, and 48% of the Company’s license and transaction processing revenues for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, were concentrated with two customers: 26%, 25%, and 23%, respectively, with one; and 11%, 18%, and 25%, respectively, with another. There was no concentration of equipment sales revenue for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011. The Company’s customers are principally located in the United States. TRADEMARKS, PROPRIETARY INFORMATION, AND PATENTS The Company owns US federal registrations for the following trademarks and service marks: Blue Light Sequence®, Business Express®, CM2iQ®, Creating Value Through Innovation®, EnergyMiser®, ePort®, ePort Connect®, ePort Edge®, eSuds®, Intelligent Vending®, PC Express®, Public PC®, SnackMiser®, TransAct®, USA Technologies® USALive®, VendingMiser®, and VM2iQ®. The Company owns pending applications for US federal registration of the following trademarks and service marks: ePort GO™, ePortMobile™ and QuickConnect™. Much of the technology developed or to be developed by the Company is subject to trade secret protection. To reduce the risk of loss of trade secret protection through disclosure, the Company has entered into confidentiality agreements with its key employees. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining such trade secret protection, that they will be recognized as trade secrets by a court of law, or that others will not capitalize on certain aspects of the Company’s technology. Through June 30, 2013, 86 patents have been granted to the Company, 73 United States patents and 13 foreign patents, and 2 United States and 4 foreign patent applications are pending. Of the 86 patents, thirteen have expired and four will expire in the next two fiscal years. The Company believes that one or more of its patents, including U.S. Patent No. 6,505,095 entitled “System for providing remote audit, cashless payment, and interactive transaction capabilities in a vending machine” and U.S. Patent No. 7,131,575 entitled “MDB Transaction String Effectuated Cashless Vending”, are important in protecting its intellectual property used in its e-Port ® control system targeted to the vending industry. The aforesaid patents expire in July 2021. The Company filed for reexamination of U.S. Patent No. 7,131,575 (Reexamination Control No. 90/008,437) and for reexamination of U.S. Patent No. 6,505,095 (Reexamination Control No. 90/008,448). On January 6, 2009, the U.S. Patent Office issued an Ex Parte Reexamination Certificate in connection with U.S. Patent No. 7,131,575 confirming patentability without any amendment to the claims. On August 11, 2009, the U.S. Patent Office issued an Ex Parte Reexamination Certificate in connection with U.S. Patent No. 6,505,095 which, among other things, approved amendments to certain of the prior claims and approved twelve new claims, for a total of 43 claims. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses, which are included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, were approximately $901,000, $1,038,000, and $997,000, for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. EMPLOYEES On August 31, 2013, the Company had fifty full-time employees and four part-time employees. 13 I tem 1A. Risk Factors. Risks Relating to Our Business We have a history of losses since inception and if we continue to incur losses, the price of our shares can be expected to fall. We experienced losses from inception through June 30, 2012, with net income for the year ended June 30, 2013. However, continued profitability is not assured. From our inception through June 30, 2013, our cumulative losses from operations are approximately $198 million. For our fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred net losses of $5,211,238 and $6,457,067, respectively, due primarily to the fact that our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations. For the year ended June 30, 2013, we earned net income of $854,123. If we incur losses in the future, the price of our common stock can be expected to fall. The occurrence of unusual or unanticipated non-operational expenses may require us to divert our cash resources from achieving our business plan, adversely affecting our financial performance and resulting in the decline of our stock price. Our fiscal year 2014 business plan assumes that no material unusual or unanticipated non-operational expenses would be incurred by us. In the event we would incur any such expenses, we would anticipate diverting our cash resources from our JumpStart program in order to fund any such expenses. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014, we anticipate utilizing substantial cash resources in connection with the JumpStart program. Any such reduction may cause our anticipated connections, revenues, gross profits, Adjusted EBITDA, and other financial metrics for the 2014 fiscal year and beyond to be materially adversely affected. In such event, the price of our common stock could be expected to fall. We may require additional financing or find it necessary to raise capital to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to achieve our business plan. At June 30, 2013, we had working capital deficit of $(1,290,504). We had operating cash flows of $6,038,952, $78,236, and ($908,227), for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, reflecting a reclassification of cash used for acquisition of property for the JumpStart Program. Although we believe that we have adequate existing resources to provide for our funding requirements through at least July 1, 2014, there can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to generate sufficient funds thereafter. Unless we maintain or grow our current level of operations and maintain or reduce the number of JumpStart connections, we may need additional funds to continue these operations. We may also need additional capital to update our technology or respond to unusual or unanticipated non-operational events. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects. Our future operating results may fluctuate. Our future operating results will depend significantly on our ability to continue to drive revenues from license and transaction fees and our ability to develop and commercialize new products and services. Our operating results may fluctuate based upon many factors, including: Our products may fail to gain substantial increased market acceptance. As a result, we may not generate sufficient revenues or profit margins to achieve our financial objectives or growth plans. There can be no assurances that demand for our products will be sufficient to enable us to generate sufficient revenue or become profitable on a sustainable basis. Likewise, no assurance can be given that we will be able to have a sufficient number of ePorts ® connected to our network or sell equipment utilizing our network to enough locations to achieve significant revenues. Alternatively, the locations which utilize the network may not be successful locations and our revenues would be adversely affected. We may lose locations utilizing our products to competitors, or may not be able to install our products at competitors’ locations, or may not obtain future locations which would be obtained by our competitors. In addition, there can be no assurance that our products could evolve or be improved to meet the future needs of the marketplace. In any such event we may not be able to achieve our growth plans, including anticipated connections and revenue growth. ● fluctuations in revenue generated by our business; ● fluctuations in operating expenses; ● our ability to establish or maintain effective relationships with significant partners and suppliers on acceptable terms; ● the amount of debit or credit card interchange rates that are charged by Visa and Mastercard; ● the fees that we charge our customers for processing services; ● the successful operation of our network; ● the commercial success of our customers, which could be affected by such factors as general economic conditions; ● the level of product and price competition; ● the timing and cost of, and our ability to develop and successfully commercialize, new or enhanced products and services; ● activities of, and acquisitions or announcements by, competitors; and ● the impact from any impairment of inventory, goodwill, fixed assets or intangibles. 14 We may be required to incur further debt to meet future capital requirements of our business, including funding our JumpStart program. Should we be required to incur additional debt, the restrictions imposed by the terms of such debt could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to respond to changes in our business. If we incur additional debt, we may be subject to the following risks: We cannot assure you that our leverage and such restrictions will not materially and adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities. In addition, we cannot assure you that additional financing will be available when required or, if available, will be on terms satisfactory to us. The loss of one or more of our key customers could significantly reduce our revenues, results of operations, and net income. We have derived, and believe we may continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of large customers. Approximately 41% and 46% of the Company’s trade accounts and finance receivables at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were concentrated with one and two customer(s), respectively. Approximately 37%, 43%, and 48% of the Company’s license and transaction processing revenues for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, were concentrated with two customers: 26%, 25%, and 23%, respectively, with the first customer; and 11%, 18%, and 25%, respectively, with the second customer. In August 2013, at the request of the second customer referred to in the prior sentence, we ceased providing ePort Connect services for 10,890 ePort devices which had previously been purchased from us by such customer. We believe that the customer made such a request as a result of the customer developing its own product and service. We continue to provide ePort Connect services to this customer for additional ePorts purchased from us by the customer. The loss of this or any other large customer could adversely affect our results of operations or growth plans. Our customers may buy less of our products or services depending on their own technological developments, end-user demand for our products and internal budget cycles. A major customer in one year may not purchase any of our products or services in another year, which may negatively affect our financial performance. If we are required to sell products to any of our large customers at reduced prices or unfavorable terms, our results of operations and revenue could be materially adversely affected. Further, there is no assurance that our customers will continue to utilize our transaction processing and related services as our customer agreements are generally cancelable by the customer on thirty to sixty days’ notice. We depend on our key personnel and if they would leave us, our business could be adversely affected . We are dependent on key management personnel, particularly the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Stephen P. Herbert and our Chief Financial Officer, David DeMedio. The loss of services of Mr. Herbert or Mr. DeMedio or other officers could dramatically affect our business prospects. Our executive officers and certain of our officers and employees are particularly valuable to us because: We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Herbert that expires on January 1, 2014 and with Mr. DeMedio which expires on June 30, 2014, each of which contains confidentiality and non-compete agreements. We have obtained a key person life insurance policy in the amount of $1,000,000 on Mr. Herbert. We do not have and do not intend to obtain key person life insurance coverage on any other officers. ● our vulnerability to adverse economic conditions and competitive pressures may be heightened; ● our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry may be limited; ● our debt covenants may affect our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in the economy and in our industry; ● a high level of debt may place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that are less leveraged and therefore, may be able to take advantage of opportunities that our indebtedness would prevent us from pursuing; ● the covenants contained in the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness may limit our ability to borrow additional funds, dispose of assets and make certain investments; ● a significant portion of our cash flows could be used to service our indebtedness; ● we may be sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates if any of our debt obligations are subject to variable interest rates; and ● our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate purposes or other purposes may be impaired. ● they have specialized knowledge about our company and operations; ● they have specialized skills that are important to our operations; or ● they would be particularly difficult to replace. 15 We also may be unable to retain other existing senior management, sales personnel, and development and engineering personnel critical to our ability to execute our business plan, which could result in harm to key customer relationships, loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated recruitment and training costs. Our dependence on proprietary technology and limited ability to protect our intellectual property may adversely affect our ability to compete. Challenge to our ownership of our intellectual property could materially damage our business prospects. Our technology may infringe upon the proprietary rights of others. Our ability to execute our business plan is dependent, in part, on our ability to obtain patent protection for our proprietary products, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others. Through June 30, 2013, we had 6 pending United States and foreign patent applications, and intend to file applications for additional patents covering our future products, although there can be no assurance that we will do so. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will maintain or prosecute these applications. The United States Government and other countries have granted us 86 patents as of June 30, 2013. There can be no assurance that: If any of the products are found to have infringed any patent, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain licenses to continue to manufacture and license such product or that we will not have to pay damages as a result of such infringement. Even if a patent application is granted for any of our products, there can be no assurance that the patented technology will be a commercial success or result in any profits to us. If we are unable to adequately protect our proprietary technology, third parties may be able to compete more effectively against us, which could result in the loss of customers and our business being adversely affected. Patent and proprietary rights litigation entails substantial legal and other costs, and diverts Company resources as well as the attention of our management. There can be no assurance we will have the necessary financial resources to appropriately defend or prosecute our rights in connection with any such litigation. Competition from others could prevent the Company from increasing revenue and achieving its growth plans. While we are a leading provider and believe we have the largest installed base of unattended POS electronic payment systems in the small ticket, beverage and food vending industry, during the last fiscal year our competitors have begun to increasingly and actively market products and services that compete with our products and services in this vending space. The competition includes manufacturers who may include in their new vending machines their own (or another third party’s) cashless payment systems and services other than our systems and services. While we believe our products and services are superior to our competitors, many of our competitors are much larger enterprises and have substantially greater revenues. In addition to these competitors, there are also numerous credit card processors that offer card processing services to traditional retail establishments that could decide to offer similar services to the industries that we serve. Competition from other companies, including those that are well established and have substantially greater resources, may reduce our profitability or reduce our business opportunities. Competition may result in lower profit margins on our products or may reduce potential profits or result in a loss of some or all of our customer base. To the extent that our competitors are able to offer more attractive technology, our ability to compete could be adversely affected. The termination of any of our relationships with third parties upon whom we rely for supplies and services that are critical to our products could adversely affect our business and delay achievement of our business plan. We depend on arrangements with third parties for a variety of component parts used in our products. We have contracted with various suppliers to assist us to develop and manufacture our ePort® products. For other components, we do not have supply contracts with any of our third-party suppliers and we purchase components as needed from time to time. We have contracted with DBSi to host our network in a secure, 24/7 environment to ensure the reliability of our network services. We also have contracted with multiple land-based telecommunications providers to ensure the reliability of our land-based network. If these business relationships are terminated, the implementation of our business plan may be delayed until an alternative supplier or service provider can be retained. If we are unable to find another source or one that is comparable, the content and quality of our products could suffer and our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed. ● any of the remaining patent applications will be granted to us; ● we will develop additional products that are patentable or do not infringe the patents of others; ● any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitive advantages or adequate protection for our products; ● any patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by others; or ● any of our products would not infringe the patents of others. 16 A disruption in the manufacturing capabilities of our third-party manufacturers, suppliers or distributors would negatively impact our ability to meet customer requirements. We depend upon third-party manufacturers, suppliers and distributors to deliver components free from defects, competitive in functionality and cost, and in compliance with our specifications and delivery schedules. Since we generally do not maintain large inventories of our products or components, any termination of, or significant disruption in, our manufacturing capability or our relationship with our third-party manufacturers or suppliers may prevent us from filling customer orders in a timely manner. We have occasionally experienced, and may in the future experience, delays in delivery of products and delivery of products of inferior quality from third-party manufacturers. Although alternate manufacturers and suppliers are generally available to produce our products and product components, the number of manufacturers or suppliers of some of our products and components is limited, and a qualified replacement manufacturer or supplier could take several months. In addition, our use of third-party manufacturers reduces our direct control over product quality, manufacturing timing, yields and costs. Disruption of the manufacture or supply of our products and components, or a third-party manufacturer’s or supplier’s failure to remain competitive in functionality, quality or price, could delay or interrupt our ability to manufacture or deliver our products to customers on a timely basis, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance. Substantially all of the network service contracts with our customers are terminable for any or no reason upon thirty to sixty days’advance notice. Substantially all of our customers may terminate their network service contracts with us for any or no reason upon providing us with thirty or sixty days’ advance notice. Accordingly, consistent demand for and satisfaction with our products by our customers is critical to our financial condition and future success. Problems, defects, or dissatisfaction with our products or services could cause us to lose a substantial number of our customers with minimal notice. If a substantial number of our customers were to exercise their termination rights, it would result in a material adverse effect to our business, operating results, and financial condition. Our reliance on our wireless telecommunication service provider exposes us to a number of risks over which we have no control, including risks with respect to increased prices and termination of essential services. The operation of our wirelessly networked devices depends upon the capacity, reliability and security of services provided to us by our wireless telecommunication services providers, AT&T Mobility and Verizon Wireless. We have no control over the operation, quality or maintenance of these services or whether the vendor will improve its services or continue to provide services that are essential to our business. In addition, subject to our existing contracts with them, our wireless telecommunication services providers may increase their prices, which would increase our costs. If our wireless telecommunication services providers were to cease to provide essential services or to significantly increase prices, we could be required to find alternative vendors for these services. With a limited number of vendors, we could experience significant delays in obtaining new or replacement services, which could lead to slowdowns or failures of our network. In addition, we may have to replace our existing ePort ® devices that are already installed in the marketplace and which are utilizing the existing vendor’s services. This could significantly harm our reputation and could cause us to lose customers and revenues. We may accumulate excess or obsolete inventory that could result in unanticipated price reductions and write downs and adversely affect our financial results. Managing the proper inventory levels for components and finished products is challenging. In formulating our product offerings, we have focused our efforts on providing products with greater capability and functionality, which requires us to develop and incorporate the most current technologies in our products. This approach tends to increase the risk of obsolescence for products and components we hold in inventory and may compound the difficulties posed by other factors that affect our inventory levels, including the following: If we accumulate excess or obsolete inventory, price reductions and inventory write-downs may result, which could adversely affect our results of operation and financial condition. ● the need to maintain significant inventory of components that are in limited supply; ● buying components in bulk for the best pricing; ● responding to the unpredictable demand for products; ● responding to customer requests for short lead-time delivery schedules; and ● failure of customers to take delivery of ordered products. 17 We may not be able to adapt to changing technology and our customers’ technology needs. We face rapidly changing technology and frequent new service offerings that can render existing services obsolete or unmarketable. Our future depends, in part, on our ability to enhance existing services and to develop, introduce and market, on a timely and cost effective basis, new services that keep pace with technological developments and customer requirements. Developing new products and technologies is a complex, uncertain process requiring innovation and accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. When changes to the product line are announced, we will be challenged to manage possible shortened life cycles for existing products and continue to sell existing products. Our inability to respond effectively to any of these challenges may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial success. Security is vital to our customers and therefore breaches in the security of transactions involving our products or services could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations. Protection against fraud is of key importance to purchasers and end-users of our products. We incorporate security features, such as encryption software and secure hardware, into our products to protect against fraud in electronic payment transactions and to ensure the privacy and integrity of consumer data. We design and test our products to high security standards and our products and methodologies are under constant review and improvement. We also maintain the highest level PCI validation standard as mandated by the card industry and engage third party auditors not only to ensure that we meet the highest industry standards, but also to advise us on improving our security methods. Nevertheless, our products may be vulnerable to breaches in security due to defects in our security mechanisms, the operating system and applications in our hardware platform. Security vulnerabilities could jeopardize the security of information transmitted or stored using our products. In general, liability associated with security breaches of a certified electronic payment system belongs to the institution that acquires the financial transaction. However, if the security of the information in our products is compromised, our reputation and marketplace acceptance of our products will be adversely affected, which would adversely affect our results of operations, and subject us to potential liability. If our security applications are breached and sensitive data is lost or stolen, we could incur significant costs to not only assess and repair any damage to our systems, but also to reimburse customers for losses that occur from the fraudulent use of the data. We may also be subject to fines and penalties from the credit card associations in the event of the loss of confidential card information. Our products and services may be vulnerable to security breach. Credit card issuers have promulgated credit card security guidelines as part of their ongoing efforts to battle identity theft and credit card fraud. We continue to work with credit card issuers to assure that our products and services comply with these rules. There can be no assurances, however, that our products and services are invulnerable to unauthorized access or hacking. When there is unauthorized access to credit card data that results in financial loss, there is the potential that parties could seek damages from us. If we fail to adhere to the standards of the Visa and MasterCard credit card associations, our registrations with these associations could be terminated and we could be required to stop providing payment processing services for Visa and MasterCard. Substantially all of the transactions handled by our network involve Visa or MasterCard. If we fail to comply with the applicable requirements of the Visa and MasterCard credit card associations, Visa or MasterCard could suspend or terminate our registration with them. The termination of our registration with them or any changes in the Visa or MasterCard rules that would impair our registration with them could require us to stop providing payment processing services through our network. In such event, our business plan and/or competitive advantages in the market place could be materially adversely affected. We rely on other card payment processors; if they fail or no longer agree to provide their services, our customer relationships could be adversely affected and we could lose business. We rely on agreements with other large payment processing organizations, primarily Elavon, Inc. (“Elavon”), to enable us to provide card authorization, data capture, settlement and merchant accounting services and access to various reporting tools for the customers we serve. Many of these organizations are our competitors and our agreements are subject to termination by them. The termination by our card processing providers of their arrangements with us or their failure to perform their services efficiently and effectively may adversely affect our relationships with the customers whose accounts we serve and may cause those customers to terminate their processing agreements with us. We are subject to laws and regulations that affect the products, services and markets in which we operate. Failure by us to comply with these laws or regulations would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. We are, among other things, subject to banking regulations and credit card association regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in the suspension of our business, the limitation, suspension or termination of service, and/or the imposition of fines that could have an adverse effect on our financial condition. Additionally, changes to legal rules and regulations, or interpretation or enforcement thereof, could have a negative financial effect on us or our product offerings. To the extent this occurs, we could be subject to additional technical, contractual or other requirements as a condition of our continuing to conduct our payment processing business. These requirements could cause us to incur additional costs, which could be significant, or to lose revenues to the extent we do not comply with these requirements. 18 New legislation could be enacted regulating the basis upon which interchange rates are charged for debit or credit card transactions, which could increase the debit or credit card interchange fees charged by bankcard networks. An example of such legislation is the so-called “Durbin Amendment,” to the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The Durbin Amendment regulates the basis upon which interchange rates for debit card transactions are made to ensure that interchange rates are “reasonable and proportionate to costs.”Pursuant to regulations that were promulgated by the Federal Reserve, Visa and MasterCard have significantly increased their interchange fees for small ticket debit card transactions. On October 12, 2011, the Company and Visa entered into a one-year agreement (the “Visa Agreement”) pursuant to which Visa has agreed to make available to the Company reduced interchange fees for debit card transactions. The interchange reimbursement fees made available to the Company will allow the Company to continue to accept Visa’s debit products without adversely impacting the Company’s historical gross profit from license and transaction fee revenues. On October 9, 2012, the Company and Visa entered into a First Amendment to extend the terms of the original agreement to October 31, 2013, which automatically renewed for one year through October 31, 2014. If the Visa Agreement is not extended, our financial results would be materially adversely affected unless we are able to pass these significant additional charges to our customers. Increases in card association and debit network interchange fees could increase our operating costs or otherwise adversely affect our operations. If we do not pass along to our customers any future increases in credit or debit card interchange fees, assessments and transaction fees, our gross profits would be reduced. We are obligated to pay interchange fees and other network fees set by the bankcard networks to the card issuing bank and the bankcard networks for each transaction we process through our network. From time to time, card associations and debit networks increase the organization and/or processing fees, known as interchange fees that they charge. Under our processing agreements with our customers, we are permitted to pass along these fee increases to our customers through corresponding increases in our processing fees. Passing along such increases could result in some of our customers canceling their contracts with us. Consequently, it is possible that competitive pressures will result in our Company absorbing some or all of the increases in the future, which would increase our operating costs, reduce our gross profit and adversely affect our business. During the term of the Visa Agreement, the Company does not anticipate accepting any debit cards with interchange fees that are higher than the rates provided under the Visa Agreement. The Company will continue to accept Visa- branded debit and pre-paid cards in addition to all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express at its current processing rates. If the Visa Agreement is not extended, our financial results would be materially adversely affected unless we are able to pass these significant additional charges to our customers. 19 Risks Related to Our Common Stock We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore investors should not anticipate cash dividends on their investment. The holders of our common stock and series A convertible preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends when, and if, declared by our board of directors. Our board of directors does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain any and all earnings to finance the growth of the business. To date, we have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock or our series A convertible preferred stock and there can be no assurance that cash dividends will ever be paid on our common stock. In addition, our articles of incorporation prohibit the declaration of any dividends on our common stock unless and until all unpaid and accumulated dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock have been declared and paid. Through September 15, 2013, the unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock are $11,928,550. As of June 30, 2013, each share of series A convertible preferred stock was convertible into 0.1938 of a share of common stock at the option of the holder and is subject to further adjustment as provided in our Articles of Incorporation. The unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock are convertible into shares of our common stock at the rate of $1,000 per share at the option of the holder. During the year ended June 30, 2013, none of our series A convertible preferred stock and no cumulative preferred dividends were converted into shares of common stock. Our articles of incorporation also provide that the preferred stock has a liquidation preference over the common stock in the amount of $10 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. As of June 30, 2013, the liquidation preference was $16,026,004. Upon certain fundamental transactions involving the Company, such as a merger or sale of substantially all of our assets, we may be required to distribute the liquidation preference then due to the holders of our series A preferred stock as well as cash payments to certain of our warrant holders which would reduce the amount of the distributions otherwise to be made to the holders of our common stock in connection with such transactions. Our articles of incorporation provide that upon a merger or sale of substantially all of our assets or upon the disposition of more than 50% of our voting power, the holders of at least 60% of the preferred stock may elect to have such transaction treated as a liquidation and be entitled to receive their liquidation preference. Upon our liquidation, the holders of our preferred stock are entitled to receive a liquidation preference prior to any distribution to the holders of common stock which as of June 30, 2013 is equal to $16,026,004. The terms of the warrants that were issued in March 2011 to acquire up to 3,900,000 shares of common stock at $2.6058 per share which expire in September 2016 provide that upon a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the warrant) the holder shall have the right to have the warrant purchased by the Company for cash at its Black Scholes Value (as defined in the warrant). The term Fundamental Transaction includes a merger, sale of substantially all of our assets, or if any person shall acquire 50% or more of the voting power of our shares. The Black Scholes Value (as defined in the warrant) payable as of June 30, 2013 was approximately $3.0 million. We may issue additional shares of our common stock, which could depress the market price of our common stock and dilute your ownership. As of September 15, 2013, we had issued and outstanding warrants to purchase 6,384,624 shares of our common stock. The shares underlying 6,339,624 of these warrants have been registered and may be freely sold. Market sales of large amounts of our common stock, or the potential for those sales even if they do not actually occur, may have the effect of depressing the market price of our common stock. In addition, if our future financing needs require us to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, the supply of common stock available for resale could be increased which could stimulate trading activity and cause the market price of our common stock to drop, even if our business is doing well. Furthermore, the issuance of any additional shares of our common stock including those pursuant to the exercise of warrants by the holders thereof, or securities convertible into our common stock could be substantially dilutive to holders of our common stock. Our stock price may be volatile. The trading price of our common stock is expected to be subject to significant fluctuations in response to various factors including, but not limited to, the following: ● variations in operating results and achievement of key business metrics; ● changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts, if any; ● any differences between reported results and securities analysts’ published or unpublished expectations; ● announcements of new contracts, service offerings or technological innovations by us or our competitors; ● market reaction to any acquisitions, joint ventures or strategic investments announced by us or our competitors; ● demand for our services and products; 20 The securities market in recent years has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic conditions, may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. The substantial market overhang of our shares may tend to depress the market price of our shares. As of September 15, 2013, the Company has registered for resale in the open market 2,075,624 of our shares underlying warrants exercisable at $1.13 per share at any time before December 31, 2013, and 4,264,000 of our shares underlying warrants exercisable at $2.6058 per share at any time before September 18, 2016. As of the date of this Form 10-K, the warrants exercisable at $1.13 per share that expire in December 2013 are in the money. Sales in the public market of a substantial number of the shares underlying these warrants, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. In addition, the sale of these shares could impair our ability to raise capital, should we wish to do so, through the sale of additional common stock. We are unable to estimate the number of shares that may be sold because this will depend on the market price for our common stock, the personal circumstances of the sellers and other factors. Director and officer liability is limited. As permitted by Pennsylvania law, our by-laws limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty except for liability in certain instances. As a result of our by-law provisions and Pennsylvania law, shareholders may have limited rights to recover against directors for breach of fiduciary duty. In addition, our by-laws and indemnification agreements entered into by the Company with each of the officers and directors provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. Our publicly-filed reports are reviewed by the SEC from time to time and any significant changes required as a result of any such review may result in material liability to us, and have a material adverse impact on the trading price of our common stock. The reports of publicly-traded companies are subject to review by the SEC from time to time for the purpose of assisting companies in complying with applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall effectiveness of companies’ public filings, and comprehensive reviews of such reports are now required at least every three years under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. SEC reviews may be initiated at any time. While we believe that our previously filed SEC reports comply, and we intend that all future reports will comply in all material respects with the published SEC rules and regulations, we could be required to modify or reformulate information contained in prior filings as a result of an SEC review. Any modification or reformulation of information contained in such reports could be significant and result in material liability to us and have a material adverse impact on the trading price of our common stock. ● shares of common stock being sold pursuant to Rule 144 or upon exercise of warrants; ● regulatory matters; ● concerns about our financial position, operating results, litigation, government regulation, developments or disputes relating to agreements, patents or proprietary rights; ● potential dilutive effects of future sales of shares of common stock by shareholders and by the Company; ● the amount of average daily trading volume in our common stock; ● our ability to obtain working capital financing; and ● general economic or stock market conditions unrelated to our operating performance. 21 I tem 2. Properties. The Company conducts its operations from various facilities under operating leases. The Company leases 17,249 square feet of space located in Malvern, Pennsylvania for its principal executive office and for general administrative functions, sales activities, product development, and customer support. The lease term expires on April 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s rent payment for this facility is approximately $30,000 per month. The Company also leases space in Malvern, Pennsylvania for its product warehousing and shipping. Through January 2013, the Company leased 13,377 square feet of space at approximately $15,000 per month. Upon termination of this lease, the Company moved its warehouse and shipping operations to a new location, also within Malvern, Pennsylvania under a new lease agreement, which expires on February 28, 2016. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s rent payment is approximately $4,000 per month. I tem 3. Legal Proceedings. None. 22 PA RT II Ite m 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities. The common stock of the Company trades on The NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol USAT. The high and low bid prices on The NASDAQ Global Market for the common stock were as follows: On September 15, 2013, there were 625 record holders of the Common Stock and 338 record holders of the Preferred Stock. The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for payment of dividends. Through the date hereof, no cash dividends have been declared on the Company’s Common Stock or Preferred Stock. No dividend may be paid on the Common Stock until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock have been paid. As of September 15, 2013, such accumulated unpaid dividends amounted to $11,928,550. The Preferred Stock is also entitled to a liquidation preference over the Common Stock which as of June 30, 2013 equaled $16,026,004. As of June 30, 2013, equity securities authorized for issuance by the Company with respect to compensation plans were as follows: (1) Represents 196,385 shares of Common Stock issuable under the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan as approved by shareholders on June 28, 2012, and 500,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the Company’s 2013 Stock Incentive Plan as approved by shareholders on June 21, 2013 for use in compensating employees, officers and directors.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. USA Technologies, Inc. provides wireless networking, cashless transactions, asset monitoring and other value-added services principally to the small ticket, unattended retail markets. Our ePort ® technology can be installed and/or embedded into everyday devices such as vending machines, a variety of kiosks, amusement & arcade machines and smartphones via our ePort Mobile™ solution. Our associated service, ePort Connect ® , is a comprehensive service that includes simplified credit/debit card processing and support, consumer engagement services as well as telemetry and machine-to-machine (“M2M”) services, including the ability to remotely monitor, control and report on the results of distributed assets containing our electronic payment solutions. In addition, the Company provides energy management products, such as its VendingMiser ® and CoolerMiser™, which reduce energy consumption in vending machines and coolers. The Company generates revenue in multiple ways. We derive the majority of our revenues from license and transaction fees related to our ePort Connect service. Connections to our service stem from the sale, or lease of our POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software or the servicing of similar third-party installed POS terminals. The majority of ePort Connect customers pay a monthly fee plus a blended transaction rate on the dollar volume processed by the Company. Customers with higher expected transaction rates might pay a lower or no ePort Connect monthly fee, but a higher blended transaction rate on dollar volume processed by the Company. Connections to the ePort Connect service, therefore, are the most significant driver of the Company’s revenues, particularly revenues from license and transaction fees. The Company also generates equipment revenue through the direct sale or rental of ePort ® technology as well as our stand-alone, non-networked energy management products. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES GENERAL The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the policies and estimates related to revenue recognition, software development costs, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, and investments represent our critical accounting policies and estimates. Future results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point, or upon installation and acceptance of the equipment if installation services are purchased for the related equipment. Activation fee revenue is recognized when the Company’s cashless payment device is initially activated for use on the Company network. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company’s cashless payment and control network. License fees for access to the Company’s devices and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. In all cases, revenue is only recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company estimates an allowance for product returns at the date of sale. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSETS In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification® (“ASC”) Topic 360 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, the Company reviews its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets exceeds its net realizable value, the asset will be written down to its fair value. In the period when the plan of sale criteria of ASC 360 are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of the net assets purchased in acquisitions. The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. Under ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized to earnings, but instead is subject to periodic testing for impairment. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, which amends current guidance to allow the Company to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative impairment test. If after this assessment the Company determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test are unnecessary. If after this assessment the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, than the Company will perform the first step of the two-step impairment test. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a quantitative method, including a discounted cash flow analysis to complete the first step in this process. We also give consideration to our market capitalization. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date. The Company has concluded there has been no impairment of goodwill as a result of its testing on April 1, 2013, April 1, 2012, and April 1, 2011. 28 The Company trademarks with an indefinite economic life are not being amortized. The trademarks, not subject to amortization, are related to the miser asset group and consist of the following trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser. The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment using a two-step process. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a relief from royalty analysis to complete the first step in this process. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company concluded there was an impairment of its indefinite-lived trademarks as a result of its testing in its fiscal year 2011, and has recorded a $581,900 impairment expense in fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). There was no impairment expense recorded during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Patents and trademarks, with an estimated economic life, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, which is calculated on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic life. The Company reviews intangibles, subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. The amount of the impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and its estimated fair value. Other than described above, as of June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company has concluded there has been no impairment of its other patents or trademarks that are subject to amortization. 29 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2013 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 Results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 continued to demonstrate significant growth and improvements in the Company’s operations. Highlights of year over year improvements include: Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 were $35,940,244, consisting of $30,044,429 of license and transactions fees and $5,895,815 of equipment sales, compared to $29,017,243 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, consisting of $23,370,754 of license and transaction fees and $5,646,489 of equipment sales. The increase in total revenue of $6,923,001, or 24%, was primarily due to an increase in license and transaction fees of $6,673,675, or 29%, from the prior year, and an increase in equipment sales of $249,326 or 4%, from the prior year. Revenue from license and transaction fees, which represented 84% of total revenue for fiscal 2013, is fueled primarily by monthly ePort Connect® service fees and transaction processing fees. Highlights for fiscal 2013 include: The increase in license and transaction fees was due to the growth in ePort Connect service fees and transaction dollars that stems from the increased number of connections to our ePort Connect service. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately 214,000 connections to the ePort Connect service compared to approximately 164,000 connections to the ePort Connect service as of June 30, 2012. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company added approximately 50,000 net connections to our network compared to approximately 45,000 net connections during added the year ended June 30, 2012. Connections added as part of our JumpStart program represented approximately 70% and 65% of net connections added during the 2013 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively. Pursuant to its agreements with customers, in addition to ePort Connect service fees, the Company earns transaction processing fees equal to a percentage of the dollar volume processed by the Company. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company processed approximately 129 million transactions totaling approximately $219 million compared to approximately 103 million transactions totaling approximately $171 million during the year ended June 30, 2012, an increase of approximately 26% in the number of transactions and approximately 28% in the value of transactions processed. New customers added to our ePort® Connect service during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 totaled 1,750, bringing the total number of such customers to approximately 5,050 as of June 30, 2013. The Company added approximately 1,350 new customers in the year ended June 30, 2012. By comparison, the Company had approximately 3,300 customers as of June 30, 2012, representing a 53% increase during the past twelve months. We count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of their ePort Connect service agreement. When a reseller sells our ePort, we count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of the applicable services agreement with the customer. The $249,326 increase in equipment sales was a result of an increase of approximately $787,000 related to ePort® products, offset by a decrease of approximately $529,000 in Energy Miser products and $9,000 in other products. The $787,000 increase in ePort products is directly attributable to selling more units and an increase in activation fees during the current fiscal year. The $529,000 decrease in Energy Miser products is directly attributable to selling fewer units during the current fiscal year as a result of fewer Energy Miser product promotions. ● Total revenue up 24%; ● Recurring license and transaction fee revenue up 29%; ● ePort Connect service base up 30%; ● Gross profit dollars up 42%. ● GAAP net income of $854,000 (includes $268,000 non-cash income for change in fair value of warrants), from a GAAP net loss of ($5.2) million (includes $1.8 million non-cash income for fair value of warrants); and, ● 50,000 additional net connections to the Company’s ePort Connect service in fiscal 2013 compared to 45,000 for fiscal 2012; ● As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately 214,000 connections to the ePort Connect service compared to approximately 164,000 connections to the ePort Connect service as of June 30, 2012, an increase of approximately 30%; ● Increases in the number of small-ticket, credit/debit transactions and dollars handled for fiscal 2013 of 26% and 28%, respectively, compared to the same period a year ago; and ● 1,750 ePort Connect customers added in the current fiscal year, up 53% from the prior fiscal year, for 5,050 customers at June 30, 2013. 30 Cost of sales consisted of cost of services for license and transaction fee related costs of $18,219,945 and $15,312,966 and equipment costs of $3,623,686 and $3,743,226, for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in total cost of sales of $2,787,439, or 15%, was due to an increase in cost of services of $2,906,979 that stemmed from the greater number of connections to the Company’s ePort Connect service and increases in transaction dollars processed by those connections, offset by improvements in pricing from major suppliers. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in cost of equipment sales of $119,540. Gross profit (“GP”) for the year ended June 30, 2013 was $14,096,613 compared to GP of $9,961,051 for the previous fiscal year, an increase of $4,135,562, or 42%, of which $3,766,696 is attributable to license and transaction fees GP and $368,866 of equipment sales GP. Overall gross profit margins increased from 34% to 39% due to an increase in license and transaction fees margins to 39%, from 34% in the prior fiscal year and by an increase in equipment sales margins to 39%, from 34% in the prior fiscal year. Improved license and transaction fee margins are due to increased efficiencies stemming from new/or renegotiated supplier agreements as well as a larger ePort Connect service base, including the VISA agreement described under the section titled “Important Relationships” that was entered into on October 12, 2011. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $12,068,566 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, decreased by $3,392,102 or 22%, from the prior fiscal year. Fiscal 2013 SG&A expenses include $328,000 of expenses related to the fiscal 2012 proxy contest, related litigation and settlement. Included in the $15,460,668 of SG&A expenses during the year ended June 30, 2012 were approximately $975,000 of expenses for the separation of the former CEO from the Company and approximately $2.2 million related to the proxy contest, related litigation and settlement. Exclusive of the two matters described above, SG&A decreased approximately $516,000, or 4%, in fiscal 2013 as compared to fiscal 2012. The overall decrease is comprised of approximately $363,000 for the reversal of sales tax audit assessment accruals estimated in fiscal 2012 that were finalized at a lower amount in fiscal 2013; a $222,000 reduction in employee and director compensation and benefit expenses; and, smaller decreases in several other areas totaling $158,000. These reductions are offset, by a $227,000 increase in sales and marketing expenses for the 2013 fiscal year. Other income and expense for the year ended June 30, 2013, primarily consisted of a $267,928 of non-cash gain for the change in the fair value (“FV”) of the Company’s warrant liabilities. The primary factor affecting the change in fair value is the decrease in the Black-Scholes value (“BSV”) of the warrants from June 30 2012 to June 30 2013. For the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company had a non-cash gain of $1,813,687 for the same warrant liabilities. The fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 resulted in net income of $854,123 compared to a net loss of $5,211,238 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an improvement of $6,065,361 between fiscal years. After preferred dividends of $664,452 for each fiscal year, net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders was $189,671 and $(5,875,690) for the fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, net earnings per common share, basic and diluted were $0.01 and $0.01, respectively, compared to the prior fiscal year net loss per common share (basic and diluted) of $(0.18). Non-GAAP net income was $914,195 for fiscal 2013, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3,820,925 for fiscal 2012. Management believes that non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares and non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per common share are important measures of USAT’s business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures serve as useful metrics for our management and investors because they enable a better understanding of the long-term performance of our core business and facilitate comparisons of our operating results over multiple periods, and when taken together with the corresponding GAAP (United States’ Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures and our reconciliations, enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current and future financial performance. 31 A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Non-GAAP net income (loss) for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows: As used herein, non-GAAP net income (loss) represents GAAP net income (loss) excluding costs relating to the proxy contest, the costs associated with the separation of the former CEO and any adjustment for fair value of warrant liabilities. As used herein, non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and where diluted shares are required, adds back the preferred dividend since the conversion of preferred shares are accounted for in the diluted share count. Year ended June 30, 2013 2012 Net income (loss) $ 854,123 $ (5,211,238 ) Non-GAAP adjustments: Operating expenses Selling, general and administrative: Proxy related costs 328,000 2,229,000 CEO Separation - 975,000 Fair value of warrant adjustment (267,928 ) (1,813,687 ) Non-GAAP net income (loss) $ 914,195 $ (3,820,925 ) Net income (loss) $ 854,123 $ (5,211,238 ) Non-GAAP net income (loss) $ 914,195 $ (3,820,925 ) Cumulative preferred dividends (664,452 ) (664,452 ) Net income (loss) applicable to common shares $ 189,671 $ (5,875,690 ) Non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares $ 249,743 $ (4,485,377 ) Net earnings (loss) per common share - basic $ 0.01 $ (0.18 ) Non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - basic $ 0.01 $ (0.14 ) Weighted average number of common shares outstanding 32,787,673 32,423,987 Net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted $ 0.01 $ (0.18 ) Non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted $ 0.01 $ (0.14 ) Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding 33,613,346 32,423,987 32 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, the Company had Adjusted EBITDA of $5,796,406. Reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows: As used herein, Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, stock-based compensation expense, and impairment expense on intangible assets. We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash charge that is not related to the Company’s operations. We have excluded the non-cash expenses, stock-based compensation, and impairment expense, as they do not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company or net cash used in operating activities. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense. Year ended June 30, 2013 2012 Net income (loss) $ 854,123 $ (5,211,238 ) Less interest income (57,121 ) (72,059 ) Plus interest expense 157,205 83,993 Plus income tax expense 27,646 12,599 Plus depreciation expense 3,837,174 2,443,054 Plus amortization expense 742,400 997,900 Plus (gain)/loss for change in fair value of warrant liabilities (267,928 ) (1,813,687 ) Plus stock-based compensation 502,907 782,100 Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) $ 5,796,406 $ (2,777,338 ) 33 FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 Results for the year ended June 30, 2012 continued to demonstrate significant growth and improvements in the Company’s operations. Highlights of year over year improvements include: The growing ePort Connect service base of connections drove the 42% increase in license and transaction fee revenue. Revenue from license and transaction fees, which is fueled primarily by monthly ePort Connect® service fees and transaction processing fees, grew to approximately $23 million for fiscal 2012 from $16 million for fiscal 2011. These recurring revenues represented 81% of total revenue for the fiscal 2012 year. License and transaction fee highlights for the year ended June 30, 2012 included: Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 were $29,017,243, consisting of $23,370,754 of license and transactions fees and $5,646,489 of equipment sales, compared to $22,868,789 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, consisting of $16,442,485 of license and transaction fees and $6,426,304 of equipment sales. The increase in total revenue of $6,148,454, or 27%, was primarily due to an increase in license and transaction fees of $6,928,269, or 42%, from the prior year, and a decrease in equipment sales of $779,815 or 12%, from the prior year. The increase in license and transaction fees was due to the growth in ePort Connect service fees and transaction dollar volume from the increased number of connections to our ePort Connect service. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had approximately 164,000 connections to the ePort Connect service as compared to approximately 119,000 connections to the ePort Connect service of June 30, 2011. During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company added approximately 45,000 connections to our network as compared to approximately 37,000 connections during the year ended June 30, 2011. The JumpStart Program units represented approximately 65% and 60% of net connections added during the 2012 and 2011 fiscal years, respectively. Pursuant to its agreements with customers, the Company, in addition to ePort Connection service fees, earns transaction processing fees equal to a percentage of the dollar volume processed by the Company, which are included as licensing and transaction processing revenues in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company processed approximately 103 million transactions totaling approximately $171 million compared to approximately 72 million transactions totaling approximately $120 million during the year ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 43% in the number and value of transactions processed. In addition, our customer base increased with approximately 1,350 new customers added to our ePort® Connect service during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, bringing the total number of such customers to approximately 3,300 as of June 30, 2012. The Company added approximately 875 new customers in the year ended June 30, 2011. By comparison, the Company had approximately 1,950 customers as of June 30, 2011, representing a 69% increase during the past twelve months. We count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of their ePort Connect service agreement. When a reseller sells our ePort, we count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of the applicable services agreement with the customer. The $779,815 decrease in equipment sales was a result of decreases of approximately $359,000 related to ePort® products, approximately $395,000 in Energy Miser products and approximately $26,000 in other products. The $359,000 decrease in ePort products is attributable to $322,000 of activation fees on non-USAT, third party devices and other activation services performed in the 2011 fiscal year. Also contributing to the decrease in ePort product sales were revenues recorded in the 2011 fiscal year of $225,000 of Visa support funding and approximately $73,000 of revenue recognized under our May 2008 agreement with a customer. These decreases were offset by a $261,000 increase in ePort product revenues attributable to increased activation fees on JumpStart units and equipment sales. The decrease in Energy Miser equipment sale revenue is due directly to fewer units sold during the year ended June 30, 2012 than during the year ended June 30, 2011. ● Total revenue up 27%; ● Recurring license and transaction fee revenue up 42%; ● New connections up 38%; and, ● Gross profit dollars up 29%. ● 45,000 additional net connections to the Company’s ePort Connect service in fiscal 2012; Total connected service base to 164,000 as of June 30, 2012, compared to 119,000 as of June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 38% compared to connections at June 30, 2011; ● Increases in the number of small-ticket, credit/debit transactions and dollars handled in the fiscal year of 43% each compared to the same period a year ago; and, ● 69% growth in ePort Connect customers, fueled by 1,350 new customers in the 2012 fiscal year for 3,300 customers at June 30, 2012. 34 Cost of sales consisted of cost of services for license and transaction fee related costs of $15,312,966 and $11,651,138 and equipment costs of $3,743,226 and $3,468,993, for the year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in total cost of sales of $3,936,061 was due to an increase in cost of services of $3,661,828 and an increase in equipment costs of $274,233. The increase in cost of services was predominantly related to increases in units connected to the network and increases in transaction dollars. In addition, approximately $316,000 of the $3,661,828 increase in cost of services was attributable to increased debit card processing costs incurred because of the significant increase of interchange fees charged by Visa and MasterCard, which became effective on October 1, 2011. The impact on margins caused by these increases in the second fiscal quarter did not impact the subsequent quarters in fiscal 2012 as the Visa Agreement that went effect on October 14, 2011 essentially restored Visa debit interchange rates to pre-October 1, 2011 levels during the one-year term of the agreement, and the Company ceased the acceptance of MasterCard debit cards in mid-November 2011. Also contributing to the increase in cost of services was approximately $199,000 of costs for electronic communication of software updates to connected ePorts®. The increase in equipment costs related to the increased freight-in costs of approximately $140,000 associated with our Verizon enabled ePorts as well as slightly higher costs to manufacture the Verizon enabled ePorts. Gross profit (“GP”) for the year ended June 30, 2012 was $9,961,051 compared to GP of $7,748,658 for the previous fiscal year, an increase of $2,212,393, of which $3,266,441 is attributable to license and transaction fees GP, offset by a decrease of $1,054,048 of equipment sales GP. The increase in GP dollars from license and transaction fees was mainly generated by additional devices connected to our network. The decrease in GP from equipment sales is predominantly due to the fiscal 2011 revenue items mentioned above and the additional costs incurred for freight-in of the Verizon enabled ePorts. Overall margins were consistent at 34%, while license and transaction fee margins increased from 29% to 34%, offset by equipment margins having decreased from 46% to 34%. License and transaction fee margins increased due to improved efficiencies stemming from recent partnership agreements, a larger ePort Connect service base, as well as having a larger number of JumpStart rental units with fees in the 2012 fiscal year versus a year ago when a larger number of JumpStart units had a longer period before monthly fees commenced. These improvements were offset by the additional costs incurred during the second fiscal quarter for interchange fees described above, and electronic communication of device software updates. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $15,460,668 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, increased by $4,030,058 or 35%, from the prior fiscal year. The most significant components of the increase relate to expenses for the proxy contest and related litigation and the Company’s Audit Committee investigation of postings concerning the Company on an internet message board and the resignation of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer. Outside of the two matters described above, SG&A increased approximately $831,000 in fiscal 2012 as compared to fiscal 2011. The overall increase is comprised of approximately $769,000 of additional employee and director compensation and benefit expenses, $311,000 in increased travel, tradeshow, sales and advertising expenses, and $194,000 in additional sales tax and penalty expenses estimated as a result of a state’s revenue audit, offset by approximately $450,000 of expense reductions. The expense reductions include $140,000 less bad debt expense in the 2012 fiscal year, as well as various other cost saving measures approximating $310,000, net. The fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 resulted in a net loss of $5,211,238 compared to a net loss of $6,457,067 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, a decrease in net loss of $1,245,829 between fiscal years. After preferred dividends, net loss applicable to common shareholders was $5,875,690, or $.18 per share, compared to a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $7,122,644, or $0.26 for the prior corresponding fiscal year. 35 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company had an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2,777,338 which includes approximately $3,204,000 of cash expenses related to the proxy contest and former CEO matters outlined in the above table. Reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is as follows: As used herein, Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, stock-based compensation expense, and impairment expense on intangible assets. We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash charge that is not related to the Company’s operations. We have excluded the non-cash expenses, stock-based compensation, and impairment expense, as they do not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company or net cash used in operating activities. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense.

Highlights of year over year improvements include: Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $9,684,842, consisting of $8,172,243 of license and transactions fees and $1,512,599 of equipment sales, compared to $7,902,846 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, consisting of $6,382,575 of license and transaction fees and $1,520,271 of equipment sales. The increase in total revenue of $1,781,996, or 23%, was primarily due to an increase in license and transaction fees of $1,789,668, or 28%, from the prior year quarter, offset by a decrease in equipment sales of $7,672 or 1%, from the same period in the prior year. Revenue from license and transaction fees, which represented 84% of total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, is fueled primarily by monthly ePort Connect® service fees and transaction processing fees. Highlights included: The increase in license and transaction fees was due to the growth in ePort Connect service fees and transaction dollars handled from the increased number of connections to our ePort Connect service. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately 214,000 connections to the ePort Connect service compared to approximately 164,000 connections to the ePort Connect service as of June 30, 2012. During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company added approximately 18,000 net connections to our network as compared to approximately 16,000 net connections during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, an increase of approximately 13%. Connections added as part of our JumpStart program represented approximately 45% and 75% of net connections added during the fourth quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Pursuant to its agreements with customers, in addition to ePort Connect service fees, the Company earns transaction processing fees equal to a percentage of the dollar volume processed by the Company. During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company processed approximately 36 million transactions totaling approximately $63 million compared to approximately 27 million transactions totaling approximately $47 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, an increase of approximately 33% in both the number of transactions and the value of transactions processed. New customers added to our ePort® Connect service during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 totaled 525, bringing the total number of such customers to approximately 5,050 as of June 30, 2013. The Company added approximately 450 new customers in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. By comparison, the Company had approximately 3,300 customers as of June 30, 2012, representing a 53% increase during the past twelve months. We count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of their ePort Connect service agreement. When a reseller sells our ePort, we count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of the applicable services agreement with the customer. The $7,672 decrease in equipment sales was a result of a decrease of approximately $71,000 in Energy Miser products offset by an increase of $47,000 in ePort Products and $16,000 in other products. The $71,000 decrease in Energy Miser products is directly attributable selling fewer units during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 than during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Cost of sales consisted of cost of services for network and transaction fee related costs of $5,139,129 and $3,818,276 and equipment costs of $874,901 and $906,231, for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in total cost of sales of $1,289,523 was due to an increase in cost of services of $1,320,853, offset by a decrease in equipment costs of $31,330. The increase in cost of services was predominantly related to increases in the number of connections to our ePort Connect service network and increases in transaction processing volume. The decrease in equipment costs is attributable to lower equipment revenues as well as lower charges to our inventory allowances during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 than during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. ● Total revenue up 23%; ● Recurring license and transaction fee revenue up 28%; ● ePort Connect service base up 13%; ● Gross profit dollars up 15%; ● GAAP net income of $1.7 million (includes $1.5 million non-cash gain for change in fair value of warrants), from a GAAP net loss of ($2.8) million (includes $170,000 non-cash charge for fair value of warrants and $2.2 million of proxy contest related expenses); and, ● 18,000 net new connections to the ePort Connect service, compared to 16,000 net for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2012; ● Increases in the number of small-ticket, credit/debit transactions and dollars handled in the fourth quarter of 33% each compared to the same period a year ago; and ● 525 more ePort Connect customers added in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013, 17% more than the prior year fourth quarter, for 5,050 customers at June 30, 2013. 37 Gross profit (“GP”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $3,670,812 compared to GP of $3,178,339 for the previous corresponding quarter, an increase of $492,473, of which $468,815 represents increased GP for license and transaction fees and an increase of $23,658 of equipment sales GP. Overall gross profit margins decreased from 40% to 38% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 due to a decline in license and transaction fees margins to 37% from 40% in the prior year. However, this was partially offset by an increase in equipment sales margins to 42% from 40% in the prior year. License and transaction fee margins decreased due to the timing of the commencement of monthly fees for newly deployed units in the fourth quarter and recording allowances for potential customer credits on recurring revenue charges. The increase in equipment sales margins was mainly due to increased activation fees, which have no direct costs associated with them. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $3,150,536 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, decreased $2,270,420, net or 42%, from the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Included in the $5,420,956 of SG&A expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 were approximately $2.2 million of expenses for the proxy contest and related litigation. Exclusive of the proxy contest and litigation expenses, SG&A decreased approximately $41,000 in fiscal 2013’s fourth quarter as compared to the same quarter in the fiscal 2012. Other income and expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, mostly consisted of $1,517,384 of non-cash gain for the change in the fair value (“FV”) of the Company’s warrant liabilities. The primary factor affecting the change in fair value is the decrease in the Black-Scholes value (“BSV”) of the warrants. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company had non-cash charges of $169,755 related to the same warrant liabilities. Net income for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $1,677,168 compared to a net loss of $2,772,605 for the prior year quarter. As noted above, these results include a gain/(charge) of $1,517,384 and ($169,755), for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, net earnings per common share, basic and diluted, were $.05 and $.05, respectively, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2012 net loss per common share (basic and diluted) of ($.09). Non-GAAP net income improved to $159,784, from a non-GAAP net loss of $373,850 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Management believes that non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per common share are important measures of USAT’s business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures serve as useful metrics for our management and investors because they enable a better understanding of the long-term performance of our core business and facilitate comparisons of our operating results over multiple periods, and when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and our reconciliations, enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current and future financial performance. 38 Reconciliation of net income (loss) to Non-GAAP net income (loss) for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows: As used herein, non-GAAP net income (loss) represents GAAP net loss excluding costs relating to the proxy contest and any adjustment for fair value of warrant liabilities. As used herein, non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding. Three months ended June 30, 2013 2012 Net income (loss) $ 1,677,168 $ (2,772,605 ) Non-GAAP adjustments: Operating expenses Selling, general and administrative: Proxy related costs - 2,229,000 Fair value of warrant adjustment (1,517,384 ) 169,755 Non-GAAP net income (loss) $ 159,784 $ (373,850 ) Net income (loss) $ 1,677,168 $ (2,772,605 ) Non-GAAP net income (loss) $ 159,784 $ (373,850 ) Cumulative preferred dividends - - Net income (loss) applicable to common shares $ 1,677,168 $ (2,772,605 ) Non-GAAP net income (loss) applicable to common shares $ 159,784 $ (373,850 ) Net earnings (loss) per common share - basic $ 0.05 $ (0.09 ) Non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - basic $ 0.00 $ (0.01 ) Weighted average number of common shares outstanding 33,080,641 32,496,327 Net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted $ 0.05 $ (0.09 ) Non-GAAP net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted $ 0.00 $ (0.01 ) Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding 34,115,444 32,496,327 39 For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company had an Adjusted EBITDA of $1,624,539. Reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows: As used herein, Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense. We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash gain (charge) that is not related to the Company’s operations. We have excluded the non-cash expenses, stock-based compensation as it does not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company or net cash used in operating activities. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES For the year ended June 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was $6,038,952 as a result of net income of $854,123, non-cash charges of $4,944,338 and net cash provided by the change in operating assets and liabilities of $240,491. Of the $4,944,338 of non-cash charges, the most significant during fiscal year 2013 were depreciation and amortization of assets, and charges for the vesting and issuance of common stock for employee and director compensation offset by the decrease in fair value of warrant liabilities. The cash provided by the $240,491 change in the Company’s operating assets and liabilities was the result of decreases in inventory and prepaid and other assets as well as an increase in accounts payable, offset by a decrease in accrued expenses and increased accounts and finance receivables. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company used $9,180,837 in investing activities of which $9,092,394 related to the purchase of equipment for the JumpStart Program and $107,351 for network equipment. $18,908 related to proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. The Company obtained net cash of $2,696,240 through financing activities, $3,000,000 of which are net proceeds from the Line of Credit and cash proceeds of $432,229 from warrant exercises, offset by $614,937 related to repayment of debt and $121,052 related to cancellation of common stock by our executive officers to satisfy income tax liability due in connection with common stock awards. We experienced losses from inception through June 30, 2012, with net income for the year ended June 30, 2013. Our accumulated deficit through June 30, 2013 is composed of cumulative losses amounting to approximately $198,300,000, preferred dividends converted to common stock of approximately $2,690,000, and charges incurred for the open-market purchases of preferred stock of approximately $150,000. Three months ended June 30 2013 2012 Net income (loss) $ 1,677,168 $ (2,772,605 ) Less interest income (4,212 ) (26,877 ) Plus interest expense 47,804 13,237 Plus income tax expense 6,911 12,599 Plus depreciation expense 1,094,978 695,609 Plus amortization expense 185,600 222,100 Plus (gain)/loss for change in fair value of warrant liabilities (1,517,384 ) 169,755 Plus (less) stock-based compensation 133,674 271,303 Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) $ 1,624,539 $ (1,414,879 ) 40 As a result of the continued growth in connections to our ePort Connect service that has fueled the strong growth in recurring revenue from license and transaction fees and the substantial improvement in GP dollars, the operating activities of the business are now providing cash to fund operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended June 30, 2013 was a positive $5,796,406 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2,777,338 for the prior fiscal year. The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA to reflect the liquidity of operations and a measure of operational cash flow. Adjusted EBITDA excludes significant non-cash charges such as depreciation, amortization of intangibles, fair value warrant liability changes and stock-based compensation from net income (loss). We believe that, provided there are no unusual or unanticipated material non-operational expenses, achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA is sustainable, and will continue to increase, as our connection base increases. For the year ended June 30, 2013, cash provided by operating activities was $6,038,952. The Company believes it will continue to generate positive cash flow from operations during the 2014 fiscal year, as the Company adds connections to existing base of connections, provided there are no material unanticipated or unusual non-operational events. The largest use of cash is for ePorts purchased for use in the Company’s JumpStart Program. For the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company used cash of $9,092,394 in its JumpStart Program. The Company anticipated using the JumpStart Program for approximately 55% to 60% of its anticipated net connections in fiscal 2013 as a result of the potential diversification from the kiosk market, where many customers only require our Quick Connect™ Web service. The Company has efforts under way in sales, marketing, development and partnering efforts that are focused on securing connections from sources away from JumpStart, such as QuickConnect Web service, ePort Mobile and direct sales of its ePort hardware device. However, since the actual percentage of total net connections from JumpStart during the year ended June 30, 2013 have been higher than anticipated, and given the use of cash required by the JumpStart Program, the Company may choose to adjust JumpStart levels or modify the JumpStart Program, subject to contractual obligations, to ensure our cash resources stay at levels deemed necessary in order to fund the ongoing operational requirements of the Company. The Company has three sources of cash available to fund and grow the business: (1) cash on hand of approximately $6 million at June 30, 2013; (2) the anticipated cash generated from operations; and (3) $2 million available on the line of credit with Avidbank, provided we continue to satisfy the various affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the loan agreement. As of June 30, 2013 the Company obtained waivers from Avidbank for the default of two covenants - Adjusted EBITDA and the minimum current ratio - for the June 30, 2013 fiscal quarter and entered into an amendment with Avidbank which modified future quarterly Adjusted EBITDA benchmarks. Although the line of credit matures on June 21, 2014, we anticipate that we will be able to extend the maturity date of line of credit or be able to procure a new line of credit to replace the existing line of credit. In addition to the above, as of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding 2,148,753 common stock warrants at an exercise price of $1.13 per share expiring on December 31, 2013. So long as the Company’s stock price remains above the exercise price of $1.13, we anticipate that a substantial portion of these warrants will be exercised providing us with additional cash resources of up to $2,428,091 by December 31, 2013. During August 2013, at the request of a customer, we ceased providing ePort Connect services for 10,890 ePort devices which the customer had previously purchased from us. We believe that the customer made such a request as a result of the customer developing its own product and service. We continue to provide ePort Connect services to this customer for additional ePort devices that were previously purchased from us by the customer. The license and transaction fees attributable to these continuing connections would have represented approximately 6% to 7% of our license and transaction fee revenues during fiscal year 2013. As a result of our anticipated growth in connections during fiscal year 2014, we do not believe that these deactivations will have a material adverse effect on our business. The customer represented 11%, 18% and 25% of our license and transaction fee revenues during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Therefore, the Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents and available cash resources as of June 30, 2013, would provide sufficient funds through at least July 1, 2014 in order to meet its cash requirements, including payment of its accrued expenses and payables, any cash resources to be utilized for the JumpStart program, other anticipated capital expenditures, and the repayment of long-term debt. 41 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS As of June 30, 2013, the Company had certain contractual obligations due over a period of time as summarized in the following table: I tem 7A.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of USA Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule of USA Technologies, Inc. listed in Item 15(a). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of USA Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

F-6 USA Technologies, Inc. N otes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. BUSINESS USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”, “We” or “Our”), was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in January 1992 and provides wireless networking, cashless transactions, asset monitoring and other value-added services principally to the small ticket unattended retail markets. Our ePort ® technology can be installed and/or embedded into everyday devices such as vending machines, a variety of kiosks, and amusement and arcade machines and smartphones via our ePort Mobile™ solution. Our associated service, ePort Connect ® , is a PCI-compliant, comprehensive service that includes simplified credit/debit card processing and support, consumer engagement services, as well as telemetry and machine-to-machine (“M2M”) services, including the ability to remotely monitor, control and report on the results of distributed assets containing our electronic payment solutions. In addition, the Company provides energy management products, such as its VendingMiser ® and CoolerMiser™, which reduce energy consumption in vending machines and coolers. While strategies to drive growth have resulted in net income of $854,123 for the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company had incurred losses from its inception through June 30, 2012. The impact on net income of future changes to the fair value of our warrant liabilities, which is subject to secondary market conditions, is not reasonably predictable. The Company’s ability to meet its future obligations is dependent upon the success of its products and services in the marketplace and the available capital resources. Until the Company’s products and services can generate sufficient annual revenues, the Company will be required to use its cash and cash equivalents on hand, and its line of credit (see Note 7), and may raise capital to meet its cash flow requirements including the issuance of Common Stock and the exercise of outstanding Common Stock warrants. 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Stitch Networks Corporation (“Stitch”) and USAT Capital Corp LLC (“USAT Capital”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash equivalents represent all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are comprised of money market funds. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which may exceed federally insured limits at times. Included in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0, of cash received by the Company for transaction processing services which is payable to our customers. Included in accounts receivable are amounts for transactions processed with our card processers for which cash has not been received by the Company and included in accounts payable are amounts for transactions processed with our card processers and due to our customers, which are recorded net of fees due to the Company. Generally, contractual terms require us to remit amounts owed to our customers on a weekly basis. F-7 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates doubtful accounts for accounts receivable and finance receivables based on historical bad debts, factors related to specific customers’ability to pay and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when management determines the balance is uncollectible and the Company ceases collection efforts. Management believes that the allowance accrued is adequate to provide for its estimated credit losses. FINANCE RECEIVABLES The Company offers extended payment terms to certain customers for equipment sales under its Quick Start Program. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification® (“ASC”) Topic 840, “Leases”, agreements under the Quick Start Program qualify for sales-type lease accounting. Accordingly, the future minimum lease payments are classified as finance receivables in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Notes receivable or Quick Start leases are generally for a 36 or 60 month term. Finance receivables are carried at their contractual amount and charged off against the allowance for credit losses when management determines that recovery is unlikely and the Company ceases collection efforts. The Company recognizes a portion of the note or lease payments as interest income in the accompanying consolidated financial statements based on the effective interest rate method. INVENTORY Inventory consists of finished goods and packaging materials. The Company’s inventory is stated at the lower of cost (average cost basis) or market. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2010-06 amends certain disclosure requirements of Subtopic 820-10. This ASU provides additional disclosures for transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and for activity in Level 3. This ASU also clarifies certain other existing disclosure requirements including level of desegregation and disclosures around inputs and valuation techniques. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows: Level 1- Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2- Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). Level 3- Inputs are unobservable and reflect the Company’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available. The Company’s financial instruments, principally cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are carried at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s obligations under its long-term debt and credit agreements approximates their carrying value as such instruments are at market rates currently available to the Company. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Property and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line basis over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the respective lease term. F-8 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of the net assets purchased in acquisitions. The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. Under ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized to earnings, but instead is subject to periodic testing for impairment. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which amended guidance to allow the Company to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative impairment test. If after this assessment the Company determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If after this assessment the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, than the Company will perform the first step of the two-step impairment test. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a quantitative method, including a discounted cash flow analysis to complete the first step in this process. We also give consideration to our market capitalization. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date. The Company has concluded there has been no impairment of goodwill as a result of its testing on April 1, 2013, April 1, 2012, and April 1, 2011. The Company trademarks with an indefinite economic life are not being amortized. The trademarks, not subject to amortization, are related to the miser asset group and consist of the following trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser. The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment using a two-step process. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a relief from royalty analysis to complete the first step in this process. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. There was no impairment expenses recorded during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. In fiscal 2011 the Company concluded there was an impairment of its indefinite-lived trademarks as a result of its testing and recorded a $581,900 impairment expense in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 (see Note 5). Patents and trademarks, with an estimated economic life, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, which is calculated on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic life. The Company reviews intangibles, subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. The amount of the impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and its estimated fair value. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company has concluded there has been no impairment of its patents or trademarks that is subject to amortization. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSETS In accordance with ASC 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company reviews its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets exceeds its net realizable value, the asset will be written down to its fair value. In the period when the plan of sale criteria of ASC 360 are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The Company has concluded that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is recoverable as of June 30, 2013 and 2012. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments that subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts and finance receivables. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. Approximately 41% and 46% of the Company’s trade accounts and finance receivables at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were concentrated with one and two customer(s), respectively. Approximately 37%, 43%, and 48%, of the Company’s license and transaction processing revenues for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, were concentrated with two customers - 26%, 25%, and 23%, respectively, with one; and 11%, 18%, and 25%, respectively, with another. There was no concentration of equipment sales revenue for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011. The Company’s customers are principally located in the United States. F-9 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point. Activation fee revenue is recognized when the Company’s cashless payment device is initially activated for use on the Company network. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company’s cashless payment and control network. License fees for access to the Company’s devices and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. In all cases, revenue is only recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company estimates an allowance for product returns at the date of sale. EQUIPMENT RENTAL During the year ended June 30, 2010, the Company commenced a rental program, the JumpStart Program (“JumpStart”), for its ePort devices. The JumpStart terms are typically 36 months and are cancellable with sixty days written notice. In accordance with ASC 840, “Leases”, the Company classifies the rental agreements as operating leases. For the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, there was approximately $806,000, $607,000, and $597,000, respectively, of activation fee revenue related to JumpStart equipment included in equipment sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There was also approximately $10,193,000, $6,074,000, and $2,725,000 of service fee revenue related to JumpStart equipment included in license and transaction fees in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. Cost for the JumpStart revenues, which consists of depreciation expense on the JumpStart equipment, approximated $3,171,000, $1,740,000, and $933,000 for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, and was included in cost of services in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately, $15,685,000 and $9,793,000, respectively, of ePort equipment utilized by the JumpStart Program was included in property and equipment, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet (see Note 4). WARRANTY COSTS The Company generally warrants its products for one to three years. Warranty costs are estimated and recorded at the time of sale based on historical warranty experience, if available. These costs are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, periodically throughout the year.

As of June 30, 2013, there were no common stock options outstanding. INCOME TAXES The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods. Upon the adoption of ASC 740, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. No liabilities have been recorded for uncertain tax positions. Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under the asset and liability method, a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize future tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence it is more likely than not such benefits will be realized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in selling, general and administrative expenses. No interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued or incurred during the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011. The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The tax years ended June 30, 2010 through June 30, 2013 remain open to examination by taxing jurisdictions to which the Company are subject. As of June 30, 2013, the Company did not have any income tax examinations in process. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the year plus the effect of potential common shares unless such effect is anti-dilutive. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 exercise of 825,673 stock purchase warrants was assumed to calculate the weighted average common shares outstanding for the year. Exercise of stock purchase warrants (5,212,955) or the conversion of preferred stock (85,847) or cumulative preferred dividends (11,596) was not assumed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 because the result would be anti-dilutive. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 no exercise of stock options (45,333); or stock purchase warrants (8,045,619); or the conversion of preferred stock (4,430) or cumulative preferred dividends (10,932) was assumed during the because the result would be anti-dilutive. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 no exercise of stock options (90,666); or stock purchase warrants (15,567,199); or the conversion of preferred stock (4,430) or cumulative preferred dividends (10,267) was assumed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 because the result would be anti-dilutive.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONTINUED) The Company’s test for impairment of its indefinite-lived trademarks consists of the trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser. As a result of its testing in fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 the Company determined that no impairment had occurred. In the testing in fiscal year 2011, the Company determined that the sum of the expected discounted cash flows attributable to the trademarks was less than its carrying value of $1,014,000, and that an impairment write-down was required. The primary driver behind the decrease in the value was a decrease in the revenue expectations for the trademarks from the time the trademarks were acquired in July 2003 to when the impairment assessment was prepared. Accordingly, in fiscal year 2011, the Company performed a valuation of the trademark’s fair value with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. The fair value of the trademarks was determined by a method known as “relief from royalty”, in which the fair value is determined by reference to the amount of royalty income the intangible would generate if it were licensed in an arm’s-length transaction. The essential assumptions in a valuation via an income approach are as follows: During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, the fair value of the trademarks was determined to be $432,100. This assessment resulted in an impairment write-down during the fourth fiscal quarter of $581,900, which is included in “Impairment of intangible asset” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. The trademark described above, is not related to the Company’s core operations consisting of its ePort wireless, cashless products and services. At June 30, 2013, the expected amortization of the intangible assets is as follows: approximately $22,000 in fiscal year 2014 and $0 thereafter. The weighted average useful life of these amortized intangible assets is approximately one month at June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, $432,100 of trademarks has an indefinite life and is included in the intangible assets tables above. 6. ACCRUED EXPENSES Accrued expenses consist of the following: 7. LINE OF CREDIT On July 10, 2012, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and other ancillary documents (the “Loan Documents”) with Avidbank Corporate Finance, a division of Avidbank (the “Bank”), providing for a secured asset-based revolving line of credit in an amount of up to $3 million (the “Line of Credit”).

LINE OF CREDIT (CONTINUED) The Loan Documents provide that the aggregate amount of advances under the Line of Credit shall not exceed the lesser of (i) $3.0 million, or (ii) 75% of eligible accounts receivable as defined in the Loan Documents plus 80% of the prior two months transaction processing revenues and networking service fees as defined in the Loan Documents, provided that the amounts advanced on account of such processing revenues and service fees shall not exceed $2,000,000 without the Bank’s prior consent, after the First Amendment entered into on January 2, 2013 As a condition of the Bank entering into the First Amendment, the Company issued to the Bank warrants to purchase up to 45,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The warrants are exercisable at any time prior to December 31, 2017 at an exercise price of $2.10 per share. Upon the issuance of the 45,000 shares of common stock, the fair value of the warrants is $55,962 using a Black Scholes model, which was recorded as prepaid interest and included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and is being amortized as non-cash interest expense over the remaining term of the Line of Credit as amended in January 2013. Non-cash interest of $53,867 has been recognized for the year ended June 30, 2013. The outstanding balance of the amounts advanced under the Line of Credit will bear interest at 2% above the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal or 5% whichever is higher. Interest is payable by the Company to the Bank on a monthly basis, provided, that the minimum interest payable by the Company to the Bank with respect to each six month period shall be $20,000. The Line of Credit and the Company’s obligations under the Loan Documents are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including its intellectual property. The term of the Line of Credit is one year. At the time of maturity all outstanding advances under the Line of Credit as well as any unpaid interest is due and payable. Prior to maturity of the Line of Credit, the Company may prepay amounts due under the Line of Credit without penalty, and subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, may re-borrow any such amounts. On April 2, 2013, the Company and the Bank, entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement. The Second Amendment provided a change to the definition of Adjusted EBITDA for covenant calculations for the fiscal quarters ending through March 31, 2014. On April 15, 2013, the Company and the Bank, entered into a Third Amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement. The Third Amendment provides that, among other things, the aggregate amount available under the Line of Credit will be increased from $3.0 million to $5.0 million, and the maturity date of the Line of Credit will be extended for another twelve months, or until June 21, 2014.The Third Amendment provides that the aggregate amount of advances now available to the Company under the Line of Credit cannot exceed the lesser of (i) $5.0 million, or (ii) 80% of the prior three months transaction processing revenues and networking service fees as defined in the Loan Agreement. The Loan Documents contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Loan Documents also require the Company to achieve a minimum Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Loan Documents and amended by the Second Amendment, dated April 2, 2013, measured on a quarterly basis. Prior to the Third Amendment, the Company was required to maintain a balance of unrestricted cash in accounts with the Bank of at least $3.0 million. The Third Amendment provided that if the amount of the Company’s monthly “net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” including Jumpstart investments, as set forth in the Company’s monthly cash flow statements prepared in accordance with United States’ Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ( “ GAAP ” ) (the “RML”) is negative, the Company must maintain a balance of unrestricted cash in accounts with the Bank plus the availability under the Line of Credit of at least six times the RML. If the RML is positive, then in lieu of the foregoing requirement, the Company must maintain a minimum current ratio of current assets to current liabilities of at least 1.00 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2013 the Company obtained waivers from the Bank for the default of two covenants – Adjusted EBITDA and the minimum current ratio. On April 29, 2013, the Company and the Bank entered into a Fourth Amendment (“Fourth Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement to change the RML from the monthly “net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” including Jumpstart investments to the average monthly amount (based on the prior three months) of the Company’s “net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” including JumpStart investments, as set forth in the Company’s monthly cash flow statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In September 2013, the Company and the Bank entered into a Fifth Amendment (“Fifth Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement to change the definition of Adjusted EBITDA for covenant calculations for the four fiscal quarters ending through June 30, 2014. The Loan Documents also contain customary events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, and bankruptcy and insolvency events, subject to grace periods in certain instances. Upon an event of default, the Bank may declare all of the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Line of Credit and Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, and exercise any other rights provided for under the Loan Documents. As of June 30, 2013, the balance due on the Line of Credit was $3,000,000, and another $2,000,000 was available. F-15 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 8.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the fair values of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments totaled $650,638 and $918,566, respectively. The Level 3 financial instruments consist of common stock warrants issued by the Company in March 2011 and March 2007, which include features requiring liability treatment of the warrants. The fair value of warrants issued in March 2011 (see Notes 12 and 13) to purchase 3.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock is based on valuations performed by an independent third party valuation firm. The fair value was determined using proprietary valuation models using the quality of the underlying securities of the warrants, restrictions on the warrants and security underlying the warrants, time restrictions and precedent sale transactions completed in the secondary market or in other private transactions. The fair value of warrants issued in March 2007 to purchase 903,955 shares of the Company’s common stock was estimated by the Company to be $0 using the Black-Scholes with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected stock price volatility of 46.6, risk free interest rate of 0.04, and an expected life of 0.2 years. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between level 1, level 2, or level 3 during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The following table summarizes the changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments for the years ended: 10. INCOME TAXES At June 30, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $167,517,976 to offset future taxable income expiring through approximately 2033. The timing and extent to which the Company can utilize future tax deductions in any year may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding changes in ownership of corporations (i.e. IRS Code Section 382). The changes in ownership limitations under IRS Code Section 382 have had the effect of limiting the maximum amount of net operating loss carryforwards as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 available for use to offset future years’ taxable income to $129,313,279 and $127,024,196, respectively. Those net operating loss carryforwards start to expire June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded net deferred tax assets of $51,078,657 and $51,708,064, respectively, which were offset by a valuation allowance of $51,118,902 and $51,720,663 as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as the realization of the deferred tax asset is not likely, principally due to the lack of earnings history. As of June 30, 2013and 2012, net deferred tax liabilities of $40,245 and $12,599, respectively, were recorded representing the future potential state and federal income tax effects for basis differences between financial reporting and income tax purposes as of those respective dates for indefinite life intangible assets and goodwill that are being amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting. The potential future income tax effects associated with such indefinite life assets are not subject to offset against deferred tax assets with finite lives. These deferred tax liabilities resulted in a provision for income taxes for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 of $27,646 and $12,599,respectively, which are comprised of deferred state income taxes of $6,804 and $3,101, respectively, and deferred federal income taxes of $20,842 and $9,498, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2013 an income tax provision of $299,801 at the federal statutory rate of 34% is indicated based upon the income before provision for income taxes. In recording the provision for income taxes the indicated provision was reduced for the effects of decreases in the valuation allowance of $205,266 for federal income taxes associated with deferred tax assets, decreased for the effects of permanent differences of $71,379 and increased by state income taxes net of federal benefit of $4,490. For the year ended June 30, 2012 an income tax benefit of $1,767,537 at the federal statutory rate of 34% is indicated based upon the loss before provision for income taxes. In recording the provision for income taxes that benefit was reduced for the effects of increases in the valuation allowance of $2,372,354 for federal income taxes associated with deferred tax assets, increased for the effects of permanent differences of $594,264 and reduced by state income taxes net of federal benefit $2,046.

INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The net deferred tax assets arose primarily from net operating loss carryforwards, as well as the use of different accounting methods for financial statement and income tax reporting purposes as follows: 11. PREFERRED STOCK The authorized Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each series with such rights, preferences or restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2013 each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 0.1938 of a share of Common Stock and each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 0.1938 of a vote on all matters on which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one voting right. Series A Preferred Stock provides for an annual cumulative dividend of $1.50 per share, payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, to the shareholders of record in equal parts on February 1 and August 1 of each year. Any and all accumulated and unpaid cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock must be declared and paid prior to the declaration and payment of any dividends on the Common Stock. Cumulative unpaid dividends at June 30, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $11,596,324 and $10,931,872, respectively. Cumulative unpaid dividends are convertible into common shares at $1,000 per common share at the option of the shareholder.

The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized various compensation plans. Activity for these plans during the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011 are as follows: On February 12, 2007, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Board adopted the LTIP Program for each of our three then-current executive officers.

As of June 30, 2013, 23,809 shares of Common Stock remain unvested for this grant. F-21 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 12. COMMON STOCK (CONTINUED) On September 27, 2011, the Company and Mr. DeMedio entered into a fifth amendment to his employment agreement pursuant to which Mr. DeMedio was granted an aggregate of 25,000 shares of common stock which vest as follows: 8,333 on the date of signing the amendment (September 27, 2011); 8,333 on the first anniversary of such signing date (September 27, 2012); and 8,334 on the second anniversary of such signing date (September 27, 2013). On September 15, 2011, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2012 Performance Share Plan (the “2012 Performance Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2012 Performance Plan, each executive officer will be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves target goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 relating to the total number of connections, total revenues, operating expenses, and operating earnings. Operating earnings is defined as earnings before interest and taxes (after bonus accruals and stock awards) and before non-operating gains or losses. The number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executives is based upon the following weightings: 30% by the total number of connections; 30% by total revenues; 10% by operating expenses; and 30% by operating earnings. No awards would be made under the 2012 Performance Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2012 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2011 fiscal year. Notwithstanding the above description of the 2012 Performance Plan, the executives would receive shares from the Company pursuant to the 2012 Performance Plan only if and to the extent that shares would be available to be issued to the executives under the existing 2011 stock incentive plan or another stock plan that has been approved by the shareholders of the Company in accordance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c).If there would not be a sufficient number of shares available to be issued to the executives, the Company would pay to the executives an amount of cash equal to the value of those shares not available to be issued to the executives. In such event, the executives would be required to utilize the cash payment, net of any withholding, payroll or other taxes attributable to the cash payment, to purchase shares of common stock of the Company on the open market. As of September 15, 2011 and through June 27, 2012, there were not sufficient shares available under the existing 2011 stock incentive plan or another stock plan that had been approved by the shareholders of the Company; consequently, the Company may have been required to deliver to the executives an amount of cash equal to the value of shares earned but not available to be issued to the executives. Therefore, in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, this award was accounted for as a liability of the Company through June 27, 2012. On June 28, 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, which includes sufficient shares for the 2012 Performance Plan. Accordingly, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $197,613 for the vesting of 136,285 shares of Common Stock – 96,201 shares to Mr. Herbert and 40,084 shares to Mr. DeMedio. Final settlement of the award occurred in September 2012. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement entered into by the Company and Mr. Jensen, Mr. Jensen is not entitled to earn shares under the 2012 Performance Plan, and therefore no award was estimated for Mr. Jensen for the fiscal 2012 year. On September 5, 2012, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2013 Performance Share Plan (the “2013 Performance Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2013 Performance Plan, each executive officer would be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves certain performance goals during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The metrics under the 2013 Performance Plan as well as the relative weightings of these metrics are identical to those originally set forth in the 2012 Performance Plan. No awards would be made under the 2013 Performance Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals has been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2013 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2012 fiscal year. If all of the target goals are achieved under the 2013 Performance Plan, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $275,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $100,000. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $75,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $25,000. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $550,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $200,000. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata number of shares from the target goal, if actual results are between target and maximum, then a pro rata number of shares between target and maximum is earned, and if actual results are above maximum (distinguished) than pro rata shares above maximum is earned. F-22 USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 12. COMMON STOCK (CONTINUED) As of September 5, 2012 and through June 20, 2013, there were not sufficient shares for the maximum awards available under the existing 2012 stock incentive plan or another stock plan that had been approved by the shareholders of the Company; consequently, the Company may have been required to deliver to the executives an amount of cash equal to the value of shares earned but not available to be issued to the executives. Therefore, in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, this award was accounted for as a liability of the Company through June 20, 2013. On June 21, 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, which includes sufficient shares for the 2013 Performance Plan. Accordingly, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $19,167 for the vesting of 11,016 shares of Common Stock – 8,142 shares to Mr. Herbert and 2,874 shares to Mr. DeMedio. Final settlement of the award is expected to occur in September 2013. During the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, and as permitted under their employment agreements, executive officers cancelled an aggregate of 64,847, 38,749, and 2,217 shares of Common Stock, respectively, in order to satisfy an aggregate of $121,052, $51,381, and $2,261, respectively, of payroll tax withholding obligations related to shares of Common Stock which vested during the 2010 through 2013 fiscal years. During June 2011, the Board of Directors accepted the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that each non-employee Director serving as of June 30, 2011 receive a stock award of 10,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan valued at $2.22 per share. A total of 50,000 shares of Common Stock were awarded, and the shares vest as follows: 16,665 on June 30, 2011; 16,665 on June 30, 2012; and 16,670 on June 30, 2013. In February 2012, a non-employee member of the Board of Directors forfeited and returned to the Company 6,667 and 3,333 shares of Common Stock, respectively, awarded under this grant in June 2011. As of June 30, 2012, 29,998 shares, net, have vested and been issued. In addition, due to the February 2012 forfeiture and return and changes in the composition of the Board of Directors as approved by shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on June 28, 2012, as of June 30, 2012, 10,002 shares of Common Stock remain reserved for future issuance and 10,000 shares will not vest under this June 2011 grant. As of June 30, 2013, 39,999 shares vested under this award and no shares remain unvested.

The agreement provides for an initial term continuing through January 1, 2013, which is automatically renewed for consecutive one year periods unless terminated by either Mr. Herbert or the Company upon at least ninety days notice prior to the end of the initial term or any one year extension thereof. The agreement increased Mr. Herbert’s base salary to $341,227, which is equal to the base salary under his prior employment agreement plus an amount equal to the cost to the Company of the car allowance and supplemental disability insurance coverage provided to him under his prior employment agreement; and, the car allowance and supplemental disability insurance coverage that had been provided to him under his prior employment agreement, which have been discontinued. He is eligible for a cash bonus as described in the next sentence. The agreement provides for the payment to Mr. Herbert of a cash bonus of $30,000 if the Company would achieve all of the minimum threshold performance target goals under the Fiscal Year 2012 Executive Performance Plan, of $50,000 if the Company would achieve all of the target performance goals under the plan, and of $75,000 if the Company would achieve all of the maximum distinguished performance target goals under the plan. The Company has agreed to obtain and pay the premiums for a term life insurance policy in the amount of $1,500,000 on the life of Mr. Herbert while he is employed by the Company. Mr. Herbert has the right to designate the beneficiary of the policy. On September 5, 2012, the Company discontinued this policy and Mr. Herbert’s base salary was increased by the amount equal to the annual premiums being paid by the Company for the life insurance policy. The agreement provides that if Mr. Herbert would terminate his employment with the Company for good reason (as defined in the agreement), or if the Company would terminate his employment without cause (as defined in the agreement), or if the Company would provide Mr. Herbert with a notice of non-renewal of his employment agreement, then the Company would pay to him a lump sum equal to two times his base salary on or before the termination of his employment. The term good reason as defined in the agreement, includes: (A) a material breach of the terms of the agreement by the Company; (B) the assignment by the Company to Mr. Herbert of duties in any way materially inconsistent with his authorities, duties, or responsibilities, or a material reduction or alteration in the nature or status of his authority, duties, or responsibilities as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; (C) the Company reduces Mr. Herbert’s annual base salary; or (D) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which Mr. Herbert is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that his overall benefit package is significantly reduced unless such failure to continue a plan, policy, practice or arrangement pertains to all plan participants generally.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) The agreement also provides that as a condition of the consummation of a USA Transaction (as defined in the agreement), the successor to the Company’s business or assets would agree to assume and perform Mr. Herbert’s employment agreement. If any such successor would not do so, Mr. Herbert’s employment would terminate on the date of consummation of the USA Transaction, and the Company would pay to Mr. Herbert a lump sum equal to two times his base salary on or before the termination of his employment. On April 12, 2005, Mr. DeMedio and the Company entered into an employment agreement pursuant to which he was employed as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In the event that a USA Transaction shall occur, then Mr. DeMedio has the right to terminate his agreement upon thirty days notice to the Company. On September 24, 2009, the Company agreed to obtain and pay the premiums for a term life insurance policy in the amount of $750,000 on the life of Mr. DeMedio while he is employed by the Company. Mr. DeMedio has the right to designate the beneficiary of the policy. The Company has agreed to obtain and pay the premiums for a supplemental long term disability policy covering Mr. DeMedio over and above the existing long-term group disability plan of the Company. If he shall become disabled while employed by the Company, the policy would provide for monthly disability coverage of up to 65% of his monthly base compensation payable to age 65 or death. If Mr. DeMedio’s employment with the Company would be terminated without cause, the Company has agreed, at its cost, to continue to provide Mr. DeMedio with health insurance benefits substantially similar to those which he is receiving immediately prior to the date of termination for a one year period following such termination. On April 14, 2011, the Company and Mr. DeMedio entered into an additional amendment to the employment agreement. The agreement extended the term of Mr. DeMedio’s employment with the Company from June 30, 2011 until June 30, 2014, and will automatically continue from year to year thereafter unless terminated as of the end of the original term or any such one year renewal period by the Company or Mr. DeMedio by at least 90-days notice. In connection with the amendment, Mr. DeMedio was issued 25,000 shares of common stock under the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan which vest or vested as follows: 8,333 on April 14, 2011; 8,333 on April 14, 2012; and 8,334 on April 14, 2013.

On September 27, 2011, the Company and Mr. DeMedio entered into another amendment to his employment agreement pursuant to which Mr. DeMedio was granted an aggregate of 25,000 shares of common stock as a bonus for his performance during the last six months of the 2011 fiscal year which vest as follows: 8,333 on the date of signing the amendment; 8,333 on the first anniversary of such signing date; and 8,334 on the second anniversary of such signing date. Mr. DeMedio also agreed that the premiums for his supplemental long term disability policy being paid by the Company would now be included in his wages and be taxable to him. On September 5, 2012, the Company discontinued Mr. DeMedio’s car allowance, supplemental disability insurance policy and life insurance policy, and the amount of his base salary was increased by the annual cost of these benefits. 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK During August 2013, at the request of a customer, we ceased providing ePort Connect services for 10,890 ePort devices which the customer had previously purchased from us. We believe that the customer made such a request as a result of the customer developing its own product and service. We continue to provide ePort Connect services to this customer for additional ePort devices that were previously purchased from us by the customer. The license and transaction fees attributable to these continuing connections would have represented approximately 6% to 7% of our license and transaction fee revenues during fiscal year 2013. As a result of our anticipated growth in connections during fiscal year 2014, we do not believe that these deactivations will have a material adverse effect on our business. The customer represented 11%, 18% and 25% of our license and transaction fee revenues during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. LINE OF CREDIT In September 2013, the Company and the Bank entered into a Fifth Amendment (“Fifth Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement to change the definition of Adjusted EBITDA for covenant calculations for the four fiscal quarters ending through June 30, 2014. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS On September 14, 2013 warrants to purchase 903,955 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $5.90 per share expired unexercised. The warrants had been issued in connection with a Securities Purchase Agreement with SAC entered into by the Company on March 14, 2007 (see Note 13). F-29 Item 9. Ch anges in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure. None. I tem 9A. Controls and Procedures. (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013. Based on this evaluation, they conclude that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process effected by the Company’s management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only a reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment, management believes that, as of June 30, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. (c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting. I tem 9B. Other Information. At the Company’s annual meeting on June 21, 2013, its shareholders voted, on an advisory basis, to conduct future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation every one year. Consistent with the shareholders’ advisory vote, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold future shareholder advisory votes on the executive compensation paid to its named executive officers on an annual basis until the next vote on the frequency of such vote is conducted or until the Board of Directors determines that a different frequency of such votes is in the best interests of the shareholders of the Company. 44 P ART III It em 10.

Compensation Discussion And Analysis This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides information about our compensation program for our named executive officers (collectively, the “named executive officers”): Stephen P. Herbert; David M. DeMedio; Michael Lawlor; and Cary Sagady. Effective May 2010 and through June 28, 2011, our Compensation Committee was comprised of Jack Price, Steven Barnhart, and Peter Michel. Effective June 28, 2011, and through July 24, 2012, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Price and Barnhart. From July 24, 2012 and through September 25, 2012, the Compensation Committee consisted of Mr. Price, Mr. Barnhart, Frank Petito and Albin Moschner. From September 25, 2012 through July 25, 2013, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Price, Petito and Moschner. From July 25, 2013 through the date of this Form 10-K, the Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Moschner, Petito and Barnhart. The Compensation Committee is responsible for annually reviewing and recommending compensation and compensation changes for the executive officers of the Company. The compensation of the two other employees named in the Summary Compensation Table is determined by our Chief Executive Officer in consultation with the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer assists the Committee in determining the compensation of all other executive officers, and none of the executive officers has a role in determining his own compensation. Our Chief Executive Officer regularly provides information to the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer is not present during voting or deliberations on his compensation. The Compensation Committee considers each component of executive compensation in light of total compensation. In considering adjustments to the total compensation of the executive officers, the Compensation Committee also considers the value of previous compensation. The Compensation Committee has retained an independent compensation consultant, Buck Consulting, as deemed necessary, to assist the Committee in making appropriate recommendations regarding our executive officer’s compensation. Compensation Goals and Objectives We have developed a compensation policy that is designed to attract and retain key executives responsible for our success and motivate management to enhance long-term shareholder value. The Compensation Committee believes that compensation of the Company’s executive officers should encourage creation of shareholder value and achievement of strategic corporate objectives, and the Committee seeks to align the interests of the Company’s shareholders and management by integrating compensation with the Company’s annual and long-term corporate and financial objectives. We believe that providing our executive officers who have responsibility for the Company’s management and growth with an opportunity to increase their ownership of Company stock aligns the interests of the executive officers with those of the shareholders. In furtherance thereof, in April 2011, the Board approved Stock Ownership Guidelines that were recommended by the Compensation Committee. These guidelines provide that the Chief Executive Officer should own shares with a value of at least three times his annual base salary, and the Chief Financial Officer should own shares with a value of at least one time his annual base salary. The Compensation Committee also ties a significant portion of each executive officer’s compensation to key operational and financial goals and performance. For example, any shares of Common Stock that were awarded to Mr. Herbert from our stock incentive plans during the 2012 fiscal year were attributable to the attainment by the Company of certain target goals or were in exchange for eliminating language in his employment agreement that required the Company to pay excise taxes in connection with excess parachute payments upon a change of control and to make related tax gross up payments. In addition, any cash bonuses earned by Mr. Herbert were contingent upon the attainment of certain target goals by the Company during the 2012 fiscal year. Any shares of Common Stock that were awarded to Mr. DeMedio from our stock incentive plans during the 2012 fiscal year were attributable to the attainment by the Company of certain target goals or were in recognition of his performance during the last six months of the 2011 fiscal year. Any cash bonuses awarded to Messrs. Lawlor and Sagady were contingent upon the attainment by the Company of certain target goals and attainment by the executive of personal business goals during the 2012 fiscal year. In addition, any cash or stock bonuses to be earned during fiscal year 2013 by any of our named executive officers could only be earned by them upon attainment by the Company of specific performance target goals, attainment of individual business goals, or upon attainment by our Common Stock of certain closing prices. 49 Compensation Components In order to be competitive with compensation offered by other companies in our custom peer group, as compiled by our compensation consultant, and to motivate and retain executive officers, the Company intends to offer a total compensation package competitive with other companies in our custom peer group as well as take into account individual responsibilities and performance. The annual compensation package for our named executive officers primarily consists of all or some of the following: ● a base salary; ● stock options; ● restricted stock awards; ● cash and stock bonuses; ● long-term stock incentive awards; and ● other benefits. Base Salary Base salary is the fixed component of our named executive officers’ annual cash compensation and is set with the goal of attracting talented executives and adequately compensating and rewarding them for services rendered during the fiscal year. Our executive officers’ employment agreements specify the level of salary to which each officer is entitled, subject to review by our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee from time to time. During November 2011, and in connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer, we recommended that Mr. Herbert’s existing base salary be increased by an amount equal to the annual costs to the Company of the car allowance and supplemental long-term disability insurance coverage which had previously been provided to him and which were being discontinued upon our recommendation. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that Mr. Herbert’s base salary be increased by an amount equal to the annual premiums being paid by the Company for a life insurance policy on Mr. Herbert’s life that was being discontinued upon our recommendation. Effective July 1, 2011, we increased Mr. DeMedio’s base salary approximately eighteen percent in order for his base salary to be more competitive with the base salaries of chief financial officers of the companies in our custom peer group as compiled by our compensation consultant. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that Mr. DeMedio’s base salary be increased by the annual amount of the car allowance, supplemental long-term disability coverage, and life insurance policy on Mr. DeMedio’s life that were being discontinued upon our recommendation. The base salaries of our executive officers reflect the individual’s level of responsibility and performance. In recommending base salaries of our executive officers to the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee also considers changes in duties and responsibilities, our business and financial results, the relationship among base salaries paid to others within our Company, and its knowledge of base salaries paid to executive officers of our custom peer group. The base salaries for each of Messrs. Sagady and Lawlor were established by our Chief Executive Officer after discussions with each employee. As set forth in his employment agreement, upon the termination of Mr. Herbert’s employment under certain circumstances, including termination by him with good cause or by the Company without cause or by a notice of non-renewal of the employment agreement, the Company has agreed to pay him a lump sum amount equal to two times his annual base salary. We believe that these provisions are an important component of the executive’s employment arrangements. Restricted Stock Awards During the 2010, 2011, and 2012 fiscal years, the Compensation Committee has recommended that restricted stock be awarded to our executive officers under the Company’s incentive stock compensation plans. During April 2011, and based upon past performance and in consideration of the extension of their employment agreements, we awarded an aggregate of 225,000 shares under our stock incentive plan to our executive officers which were to become vested over a two year period. During September 2011, we awarded 150,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to our former CEO and 100,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to Mr. Herbert which were to become vested over a two year period in exchange for the elimination of certain provisions in their employment agreements requiring the Company to pay excise taxes in connection with excess parachute payments in the event of a change in control of the Company and to make related tax gross up payments. The Compensation Committee as well as the executive officers believed that these provisions were no longer appropriate given current compensation practices and represented good corporate governance. During September 2011, we issued 25,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to Mr. DeMedio as a bonus for performance during the last six months of the 2011 fiscal year. 50 On September 5, 2012, and in recognition of his successful leadership of the Company following the separation of the former CEO as well as his successful leadership in connection with the implementation of the Company’s financial turnaround plan, the Board approved our recommendation and awarded Mr. Herbert 71,429 shares of unvested Common Stock under our stock incentive plan having a value of $100,000. These shares would become vested upon the attainment of various closing prices for thirty consecutive trading days at any time during the three year period following the date of the award. One-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.00 per share, one-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.25 per share, and one-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.50 per share. Cash and Stock Bonuses In addition to base salary, we may award variable cash bonus awards to our named executive officers as well as shares available under our incentive stock compensation plans upon the attainment by the Company of target goals during a fiscal year. On September 15, 2011, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2012 Performance Share Plan (the “2012 Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2012 Plan, each executive officer will be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves target goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 relating to the total number of connections, total revenues, operating expenses, and operating earnings. Operating earnings is defined as earnings before interest and taxes (after bonus accruals and stock awards) and before non-operating gains or losses. The number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executives is based upon the following weightings: 30% by the total number of connections; 30% by total revenues; 10% by operating expenses; and 30% by operating earnings. No awards would be made under the 2012 Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) operating earnings for the 2012 fiscal year are not equal to, or better than, those during the 2011 fiscal year. If all of the target performance goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded the following number of shares: Mr. Herbert –120,000 shares; and Mr. DeMedio – 50,000 shares. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 20% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 150% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata portion of the number of eligible shares. Based upon the financial results of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the minimum threshold targets under the 2012 Plan relating to revenues and connections were met. However, as a result of the approximately $2.2 million of expenses incurred in connection with the proxy contest and related litigation and the $975,000 of expenses incurred in connection with the separation of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, operating earnings were less than those for the 2011 fiscal year and the minimum threshold targets under the 2012 Plan relating to operating expenses and operating earnings were not met. On September 5, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that the expenses incurred in connection with the proxy contest and related litigation and the separation of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company should be excluded from the operating expenses and operating earnings metrics under the 2012 Plan. The Compensation Committee and the Board did not believe that costs related to these unusual non-operating events should be included for purposes of evaluating operating performance under the 2012 Plan. On this adjusted basis, operating earnings were better than those of the 2011 fiscal year and met the target goal under the 2012 Plan, and operating expenses met the maximum, distinguished target goal under the 2012 Plan, resulting in the award of 136,285 shares, as follows: Mr. Herbert- 96,201 shares; and Mr. DeMedio, Chief Financial Officer- 40,084 shares. Mr. Herbert’s November 30, 2011 employment agreement with the Company provides that he will receive a cash bonus of $30,000 if the Company would achieve the minimum threshold target goals under the 2012 Plan, of $50,000 if the Company would achieve the target goals under the 2012 Plan, and of $75,000 if the Company would achieve the maximum distinguished target goals under the 2012 Plan. Based on performance against the 2012 Plan, on the adjusted basis approved by the Board of Directors described above, Mr. Herbert earned a cash bonus of $40,000. On September 5, 2012, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2013 Performance Share Plan (the “2013 Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2013 Plan, each executive officer would be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves certain performance goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013. The metrics under the 2013 Plan as well as the relative weightings of these metrics are identical to those originally set forth in the 2012 Plan. No awards would be made under the 2013 Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2013 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2012 fiscal year. 51 If all of the target goals are achieved under the 2013 Plan, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $275,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $100,000. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $75,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $25,000. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert –$550,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $200,000. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata number of shares and if actual results are greater than the target goals, but less than the maximum, distinguished goals, each executive would be awarded a greater pro rata number of shares. The Compensation Committee believes that the attainment of the target goals under the 2013 Plan would represent a significant achievement for management. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $19,167 for the vesting of 11,016 shares of Common Stock – 8,142 shares to Mr. Herbert and 2,874 shares to Mr. DeMedio. Final settlement of the award is expected to occur in September 2013. On September 5, 2012, the Board also approved our recommendation that Mr. Herbert would earn a cash bonus of $30,000 if he achieved certain minimum threshold target goals during the 2013 fiscal year, of $50,000 if he achieved target goals, and of $75,000 if he achieved maximum distinguished target goals during the 2013 fiscal year. The specific strategic performance goals to be utilized for purposes of Mr. Herbert’s bonus plan were established by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board. Mr. Herbert earned a cash bonus of $51,250 under this plan. All cash bonuses earned by Messrs. Lawlor and Sagady during the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years were based upon achievement by the Company of target goals and, to a lesser extent, attainment of personal performance goals. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, all of the cash bonuses to be earned by Messsrs. Lawlor and Sagady are based upon the attainment of target goals by the Company. Other Benefits During the 2011, 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, our named executive officers were entitled to the health care coverage, group insurance and other employee benefits provided to all of our employees. As of September 2012, we recommended to the Board, and the Board approved, the discontinuance of the automobile allowance, long-term supplemental disability coverage and life insurance coverage previously provided to our named executive officers which were in excess of those generally available to the Company’s employees. In this regard, in November 2011, Mr. Herbert’s automobile allowance was discontinued and the Company ceased paying the premiums for a supplemental long-term disability policy for Mr. Herbert over and above the existing long-term group disability plan of the Company. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that the Company discontinue payment of the premiums for a life insurance policy with a face amount of $1,500,000 on Mr. Herbert’s life provided by the Company. On September 5, 2012, the Board also approved our recommendation that the Company discontinue payment of the automobile allowances for each of Messrs. DeMedio, Lawlor and Sagady and discontinue the long-term supplemental disability policy and life insurance policy on Mr. DeMedio’s life provided by the Company. As discussed above, the base salaries of the named executive officers were increased by an amount equal to the annual payments attributable to these discontinued fringe benefits. Impact of Taxation and Accounting Considerations on Executive Compensation The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors take into account tax and accounting consequences of the compensation program and weigh these factors when setting total compensation and determining the individual elements of any executive officer’s compensation package. The restricted stock awards to our executive officers under our stock incentive plans, including the 2012 Plan and 2013 Plan, provide that the executive is responsible for any withholding or payroll tax obligations incurred by the Company in connection with the award, and that the executive may satisfy any such obligations by either the delivery to the Company of a cash payment equal to the obligations, or the assignment or transfer to the Company of shares having a value equal to the obligations, or such other method that shall be satisfactory to the Company. In order to have any benefits payable to the executive officers under their supplemental long term disability policies not be included in their taxable income, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the premiums therefore should be included in their wages from the Company, and such a change was included in each of their September 2011 employment contract revisions.

The term “USA Transaction” means: (i) the acquisition of fifty-one percent or more of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the Company by any person, entity or group, or (ii) the approval by the shareholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, or dissolution of the Company, or the sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (iii) a change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company over a period of twelve (12) months or less such that the continuing directors fail to constitute a majority of the Board. 57 Mr. Herbert’s employment agreement provides that if Mr. Herbert would terminate his employment with the Company for good reason (as defined in the agreement), or if the Company would terminate his employment without cause (as defined in the agreement), or if the Company would provide Mr. Herbert with a notice of non-renewal of his employment agreement, then the Company would pay to him a lump sum equal to two times his base salary on or before the termination of his employment. The term “good reason,” as defined in the agreement, includes: (A) a material breach of the terms of the agreement by the Company; (B) the assignment by the Company to Mr. Herbert of duties in any way materially inconsistent with his authorities, duties, or responsibilities, or a material reduction or alteration in the nature or status of his authority, duties, or responsibilities as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; (C) the Company reduces Mr. Herbert’s annual base salary; or (D) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which Mr. Herbert is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that his overall benefit package is significantly reduced unless such failure to continue a plan, policy, practice or arrangement pertains to all plan participants generally. As a condition to Mr. Herbert receiving any payments or benefits upon the termination of his employment for good reason, Mr. Herbert shall have executed and delivered (and not revoked) a release of any and all claims, suits, or causes of action against the Company and its affiliates in form reasonably acceptable to the Company. The agreement also provides that as a condition of the consummation of a USA Transaction, the successor to the Company’s business or assets would agree to assume and perform Mr. Herbert’s employment agreement. If any such successor would not do so, Mr. Herbert’s employment would terminate on the date of consummation of the USA Transaction, and the Company would pay to Mr. Herbert a lump sum equal to two times his base salary on or before the termination of his employment. If Mr. Herbert’s employment had been terminated as of June 30, 2013 (when the closing price per share was $1.74) (i) by him for good reason, or (ii) by the Company without cause, or (iii) if a successor to the Company’s business or assets had not agreed to assume and perform his employment agreement as a condition to the consummation of a USA Transaction, then Mr. Herbert would have been entitled to receive: (a) an aggregate cash payment of twice his annual base salary or $682,454; (b) an aggregate of 33,334 shares previously granted to him under his employment agreement, which would become automatically vested as of the date of termination, with a value of $58,001; and (c) an aggregate of 23,809 shares previously granted to him on September 2, 2012, which would automatically become vested as of the date of termination, with a value of $41,428.

The remedies granted to USA in this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to remedies otherwise available to USA at law or in equity. SECTION 8. Waiver of Breach. The waiver by USA of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Lawlor shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by Lawlor of such or any other provision. SECTION 9. Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, as follows: To USA: USA Technologies, Inc. 100 Deerfield Lane, Suite 140 Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355 Attn: Stephen P.

All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be deemed duly given and received on the second day next succeeding the date of mailing. SECTION 10. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of any such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be valid and enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law. 12 SECTION 11. Governing Law. The implementation and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to its conflict of laws and choice-of-law rules.
