On June 30, 2020, Patricia A. Oelrich resigned from her position as a director on the Board of Directors of USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) effective the same day.

Departure of Chief Financial Officer

On June 29, 2020, the Company terminated the employment of Michael Wasserfuhr, its former Chief Financial Officer.

(c) Appointment of Interim Chief Financial Officer

On June 29, 2020, the Company appointed Eugene C. Cavanaugh as the Company’s interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of July 1, 2020. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Cavanaugh entered into an independent contractor agreement with the Company, dated as of June 29, 2020 (the “Cavanaugh Agreement”), which provides that Mr. Cavanaugh will be compensated with the following per month of his engagement: (i) $15,000 in cash, and (ii) 3,000 shares of Company common stock, in each case prorated for any partial month of service. The Cavanaugh Agreement will remain in effect until the Company appoints a permanent Chief Financial Officer (unless earlier terminated by either the Company or Mr. Cavanaugh). The Company has commenced a search for a permanent Chief Financial Officer.

Mr. Cavanaugh, 63, has over 30 years’ experience in corporate finance, treasury, as well as strategic planning, risk management and operations management, across multiple industries - from start-ups, to the Fortune 100. Most recently, he worked as a private investor and consultant, providing CFO level financial management and process improvement for portfolio companies of Triple Tree Capital Partners, an independent merchant bank in Minneapolis, and other independent companies. Previously, Mr. Cavanaugh was a member of the executive leadership team at UnitedHealth Group (UHG), a managed health care company, and was the CFO of its $3+ billion Uniprise business segment. There, he led the completion of the $1.6 billion MetraHealth acquisition integration, which included building a finance organization, creating a business unit balance sheet and management reporting process, improving internal controls, rationalizing legacy systems and reducing DSOs in the national account business. As part of his role as CFO, Mr. Cavanaugh was also Treasurer of UnitedHealthcare Insurance Co. of Connecticut, the primary insurance carrier for UHG’s non-HMO products nationally, and responsible for legal entity reporting and compliance, with Connecticut insurance regulations. Prior to joining UnitedHealth Group, Mr. Cavanaugh managed Arthur Andersen’s finance and accounting outsourcing practice in Metro Philadelphia. He is a graduate of Villanova University.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Cavanaugh and any other persons in connection with Mr. Cavanaugh’s appointment as interim Chief Financial Officer (other than the Cavanaugh Agreement), and Mr. Cavanaugh has no family relationship with any director or executive officer of the Company. Mr. Cavanaugh has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction with the Company that is reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, nor have any such transactions been proposed.

The foregoing summary of the Cavanaugh Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Cavanaugh Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by this reference.
