This AMENDED AND RESTATED
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of July 29, 2016, by and between FinTech Acquisition
Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), CardConnect, LLC (f/k/a Financial Transaction Services,
LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Company”),
and Jeffrey Shanahan (“Executive”).

WHEREAS, effective as of the
date hereof, FTS Holding Corporation, the Company’s parent corporation, merged with and into FinTech Merger Sub, Inc. (the
“Merger”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and the entity surviving the merger changed its name to FTS
Holding Corporation (“FTS”);

WHEREAS, in connection with
the Merger, the Company and the Executive desire to modify certain terms of the Employment Agreement between such parties dated
as of September 15, 2010 (the “Original Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, this Agreement amends
and restates in its entirety the Original Employment Agreement.

In consideration of the mutual
covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Employment. Parent
and the Company shall employ Executive, and Executive hereby accepts employment with Parent and the Company, upon the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning on the date hereof and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof
(the “Employment Period”).

2.Position and Duties.

(a)During the Employment
Period, Executive shall serve as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries (as defined
below) and shall have the normal duties, responsibilities, and authority of an executive serving in such position subject to the
direction of Parent’s board of directors (the “Board”).

(b)Executive shall report
to the Board and shall devote his best efforts and full business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and
reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries.
Executive shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries hereunder in
good faith and to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with
Parent’s, the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’ policies and procedures in all material respects. So long as
Executive is employed by Parent or the Company, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), accept other employment or perform other services for compensation; provided, that
Executive may (i) serve as an officer or director of or otherwise participate in purely educational, welfare, social, religious
and civic organizations so long as such activities do not materially interfere with Executive’s services and obligations
hereunder, and (ii) make and manage personal investments of his choice so long as such activities do not materially interfere
with Executive’s services and obligations hereunder.

    

     

    

(c)Executive shall perform
his duties hereunder at the Company’s office in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. It is understood that Executive shall undertake
such business travel as reasonably required by Parent or the Company to perform his duties and responsibilities.

(d)For purposes of this
Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership
interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of determination,
owned by Parent or the Company, directly or through one of more Subsidiaries

3.Compensation and
Benefits.

(a)During the Employment
Period, Executive’s base salary shall be five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) per annum, subject to increase as approved
by Parent’s compensation committee (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be payable by Parent in regular
installments in accordance with Parent’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). In addition, during
the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of Parent and the Company’s vacation, paid holidays,
medical and other employee benefit programs for which members of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries’ executive management
team are generally eligible. Executive shall be entitled to six (6) weeks of paid time off each calendar year, which if not taken
during any year may not be carried forward to any subsequent year and no compensation shall be payable in lieu thereof, except
as otherwise required by law.

(b)During the Employment
Period, Parent shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in the course of performing
his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with Parent’s policies in effect from time to time
with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to Parent’s requirements with respect to reporting
and documentation of such expenses, provided that Executive shall be entitled to travel business class on all flights taken
by Executive in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

(c)All expenses or other
reimbursements under this Agreement which would be deemed taxable income to the Executive shall be made on or prior to the last
day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive. Any right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and no such reimbursement, expenses eligible
for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement,
or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(d)In addition to the
Base Salary, Executive shall be eligible to receive, in respect of each full calendar year, subject to his continued employment
through the last day of each calendar year and at the discretion of Parent’s compensation committee (except as otherwise
provided herein), a bonus based on the performance of the Company, as measured by the Company’s achievement of certain target(s)
approved by Parent’s compensation committee (the “Annual Bonus”). During the Employment Period, Executive’s
target Annual Bonus shall not be less than sixty percent (60%) of the Base Salary. The amount of the Annual Bonus for the 2016
calendar year shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the annual incentive plan under which Executive
participated immediately prior to the Merger. All amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be payable in cash to Executive
within fourteen (14) days following completion of the annual accounting audit of Parent and the Company, but in any event no later
than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following the fiscal year in respect of which such payment is earned or as soon
as administratively practicable within the meaning of Code Section 409A (as defined below).

    	 	-2-	 

     

    

(e)As soon as practicable
after the consummation of the Merger, Executive shall be granted equity compensation in the form of nonqualified stock options
(the “Options”) pursuant to the equity compensation plan to be adopted by Parent (or its successor) in connection
with the Merger (the “Equity Plan”), to purchase a number of shares of common stock of the Parent (or its successor)
equal to 33.3% of the total shares authorized for issuance under the Equity Plan at an exercise price equal to the fair market
value of such shares on the grant date. The Options shall be issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and
the terms and conditions of the Options shall be consistent with similar equity-based compensation awards granted to similarly-situated
senior executives of Parent; provided, however, that (i) the Options shall vest and become exercisable in four equal
annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date hereof, except that the Options shall become fully vested and
exercisable (A) if the Employment Period is terminated by Parent without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason or (B) upon a “change
of control” (as such term is defined in the Equity Plan) and (ii) the scheduled expiration date of the Options shall be 10
years from the grant date of the Options.

4.Term.

(a)The Employment Period
shall end on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof and shall automatically be renewed on the same terms and conditions
set forth herein as modified from time to time by the parties hereto for additional one-year periods beginning on such fifth (5th)
anniversary unless either party notifies the other no later than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then current term that
it does not wish to renew the Agreement; provided, that (i) the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executive’s
resignation with Good Reason or without Good Reason, death or Disability, and (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by Parent
at the sole discretion of the Board at any time for Cause or without Cause. Any termination of the Employment Period by Parent
shall be effective as specified in a written notice from Parent to Executive.

(b)If the Employment
Period is terminated by Parent without Cause (other than as a result of Executive’s Disability) or by Executive with Good
Reason, Executive shall be entitled to (i) a lump sum cash payment within fourteen (14) days following the date of his termination
of employment equal to the sum of (A) his accrued but unused vacation, (B) Base Salary payable through the date of termination,
(C) any accrued but unpaid bonus or incentive compensation earned by Executive for a prior fiscal year, (D) the target Annual
Bonus for the year in which the Employment Period was terminated, to the extent it would have been payable to Executive under
Section 3(d), prorated on the basis of the number of full days of service rendered by Executive during such year, and (E)
any unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 3(b), and (ii) an amount equal to twenty-four
(24) months of Executive’s Base Salary, less applicable withholdings and deductions, such amount payable in regular installments
in accordance with Parent’s normal payroll practices at the time of termination over a period of twenty-four (24) months
commencing on the date the Employment Period is terminated (the “Severance Period”), in each case if and only
if Executive has executed and delivered to Parent and the Company the Parent’s standard, general release in form and substance
satisfactory to the Board (the “Release”) within thirty (30) days of such termination and only so long as Executive
has not revoked or breached the provisions of such Release or breached the provisions of Sections 5, 6 and 7
hereof during the Severance Period. Executive shall forfeit all rights to payment under clause (ii) of this Section 4(b)
unless the Release is signed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within thirty (30) days following
the date of Executive’s termination of employment. Subject to the provisions of Section 24, if the general release
is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the preceding sentence, then payments under clause
(ii) of this Section 4(b) shall be made or commence upon the thirtieth (30th) day following Executive’s
termination of employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been due
prior thereto under the terms of this Agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon Executive’s termination of
employment, and any payments made thereafter shall continue in accordance with Parent’s payroll practices at the time of
termination. In addition, if Executive elects to continue and pays his health insurance coverage under Section 4980B of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“COBRA”), following the termination of Executive’s employment, then
Parent shall pay or reimburse Executive for the portion of the monthly premium under COBRA for such coverage in excess of the
portion paid by active employees for similar coverage until the earliest of (x) the expiration of the Severance Period and
(y) the date Executive receives substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment.

    	 	-3-	 

     

    

(c)If the Employment Period
is terminated (i) by Parent for Cause, (ii) due to Executive’s death or Disability, or (iii) by Executive’s resignation
without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary through the date of such termination, any accrued but
unused vacation, any accrued but unpaid bonus or incentive compensation earned by Executive for a prior fiscal year, and unreimbursed
business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 3(b), all of which shall be payable in a lump sum cash
payment within fourteen (14) days following the date of his termination of employment.

(d)Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from
Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to
salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination
of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment
Period (including, without limitation, any vested rights under the Equity Plan (and any successor plans)) or other amounts owing
hereunder as of the date of such termination that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly
required under applicable law (such as COBRA).

(e)Parent, the Company
and their Subsidiaries may offset any amounts Executive owes Parent, the Company or such Subsidiaries against any amounts Parent,
the Company or such Subsidiaries, as applicable, owes Executive hereunder, except as provided in Section 24(e) or under
applicable law.

(f)For purposes of this
Agreement, “Cause” shall mean with respect to Executive one or more of the following: (i) the conviction of,
or plea of no contest by, Executive with respect to a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude offense if, and only if,
it is determined by the Board that such event has occurred and merits termination of the Executive’s employment pursuant
to this Agreement, (ii) the commission of any other act or omission by Executive involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty,
theft or fraud with respect to Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their business relationships, (iii)
Executive’s illegal possession of a controlled substance, use of illegal drugs or repetitive abuse of alcohol or other behavior
which materially interferes with the performance of his duties to Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary or which compromises the
integrity and reputation of Executive, Parent, the Company or any Subsidiaries, (iv) Executive’s failure to substantially
perform material duties as reasonably directed by the Board in accordance with this Agreement continuing beyond thirty (30) days’
prior written notice of such failure, (v) Executive’s willful act or omission aiding or abetting a competitor of Parent,
the Company or any of their Subsidiaries to the material disadvantage or detriment of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries,
(vi) Executive’s willful failure to comply in all material respects with Parent and the Company’s material policies,
procedures and guidelines, including corporate governance and human relations policies, and applicable laws with respect to Parent’s
and the Company’s business operations, (vii) Executive’s breach of fiduciary duty, gross negligence or willful misconduct
with respect to Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, or (viii) any other material breach by Executive of this Agreement
which is not cured to the Board’s reasonable satisfaction within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to Executive.
For purposes of clauses (v), (vi) and (vii) above, no act or failure to act on the part of Executive shall be considered “willful”
unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that Executive’s action
or omission was in the best interests of Parent or the Company.

    	 	-4-	 

     

    

(g)The Executive’s
“Disability” shall be deemed to have occurred only if, as a result of his incapacity due to physical or mental
illness, Executive is considered disabled under the Company’s or Parent’s long-term disability insurance plans.

(h)For purposes of this
Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean if Executive resigns from employment with Parent or the Company prior to
the end of the Employment Period as a result of one or more of the following reasons: (i) any material breach by Parent or the
Company of this Agreement including a reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or target Annual Bonus opportunity or a material
reduction in Executive’s employee benefits in the aggregate under this Agreement, (ii) a material reduction or diminution
of Executive’s duties, authority or responsibilities (including any change in his reporting requirements), or (iii) a material
change in Executive’s principal place of employment to a location more than 25 miles outside of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.
Notwithstanding the above, the occurrence of any of the events described in (i), (ii) or (iii) above will not constitute a “Good
Reason” unless Executive gives Parent written notice, within sixty (60) calendar days after the occurrence of any such events
that such circumstances constitute “Good Reason,” and Parent or the Company thereafter fails to cure such circumstances
within 30 days after receipt of such notice. The termination of the Employment Period for Cause shall preclude Executive’s
resignation with Good Reason.

(i)Executive shall not
be required to mitigate the severance benefits contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive
from any other source reduce any such severance benefits.

5.Confidential Information.

(a)Executive acknowledges
that the continued success of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of
a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or
to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential
Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied
in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to Parent’s, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’
or affiliates’ current or potential business, and (ii) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information
includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by him whether before or after the date
of this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, information
concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to Parent, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’
business or industry of which Executive becomes aware, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective business
relations, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic,
marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists
and telephone numbers, locations of sales agents, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, merchant service,
integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that he
shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s
prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available
for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act, or (ii) is required to be disclosed
pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to Parent at the end of the Employment Period, or at
any other time the Board may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies
thereof) relating to the business of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all
Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control.

    	 	-5-	 

     

    

(b)During the Employment
Period, Executive shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any
other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of Parent, the Company
or their Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person
to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Executive
shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training
and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally
in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or affiliates, or
(iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Executive
has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during
employment with Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary, Executive believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will
be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers or other persons, Executive
shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c)Executive shall immediately
notify the Board of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information
by Executive or any other person or entity of which Executive becomes aware. Executive shall cooperate fully with the Company in
the procurement of any protection of Parent or the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(d)Executive understands
that Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information
(“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s, the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’
and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.
During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 5(a) above,
Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel
of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for
Parent, the Company or such Subsidiaries and affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for Parent, the Company or
their Subsidiaries and affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by the Board’s written consent.

    	 	-6-	 

     

    

6.Intellectual Property,
Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements,
developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or
not including any Confidential Information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information
and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to Parent’s, the Company’s or any of
their Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and
which are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by Parent, the Company
or any Subsidiary, whether before or after the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), shall be deemed to be
“work made for hire” (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. § 101 et seq., as amended) and
belong exclusively to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product to the Board
and, at Parent’s expense, perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period)
to establish and confirm such title and ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and
other instruments).

7.Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation.

(a)In further consideration
of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of his employment with Parent,
the Company and their Subsidiaries (including predecessors of such entities) Executive has and shall become familiar with Parent’s,
the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent, the
Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates and that his services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary
value to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, and, therefore, Executive agrees that, during the Employment
Period and for twenty four (24) months thereafter (the “Noncompete Period”), Executive shall not directly or
indirectly, either for himself or for any other person, partnership, corporation, company or other entity, own any interest in,
manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any other manner engage in any business or enterprise
which (i) is engaged in the business of developing, marketing, licensing and maintaining payment, security and encryption software
solutions, including payment acceptance, authorization, settlement and reconciliation of funds functionality or (ii) provides
payment processing services to merchants (provided directly and indirectly through independent sales organizations and agents)
and related operations, including, but not limited to, facilitating the exchange of information and funds between merchants and
cardholders’ financial institutions, providing end-to-end electronic payment processing services to merchants, including
merchant set-up and training, transaction authorization and electronic draft capture, clearing and settlement, merchant accounting,
merchant assistance and support and risk management or provides products, or services which are similar to or compete with any
other products or services of Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries (or any products or services Parent, the Company
or any of their Subsidiaries are currently in the process of developing), as of the expiration date or earlier termination of
the Employment Period, anywhere within the United States of America (any of the foregoing, a “Competitive Activity”).
For purposes of this Agreement, “participate” includes any direct or indirect interest in any enterprise, whether
as an officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, executive, franchisor,
franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise; provided, that the foregoing activities shall not include the passive ownership
(i.e., Executive does not directly or indirectly participate in the business or management of the applicable entity) of less than
two (2)% of the stock of a publicly-traded corporation. Executive agrees that the aforementioned covenant is reasonable with respect
to its duration, geographical area and scope. In particular, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the geographic scope of this
restriction is necessary to protect the goodwill and Confidential Information of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries.

    	 	-7-	 

     

    

(b)During the Employment
Period and for twenty-four (24) months thereafter, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another person or entity
(i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of Parent, the Company
or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary and any employee
thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary at any time during the twelve (12) months
preceding such hiring, (iii) induce or attempt to induce any merchant, agent, independent sales organization, or other business
relation of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any
way interfere with the relationship between any such merchant, agent, independent sales organization, or other business relation
and Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications
about Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries) or (iv) service, engage in business with or provide products or services to any
merchant, agent, independent sales organization, or other business relation of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary with respect
to any product or service provided or rendered by Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or which Parent, the Company
or any of their Subsidiaries is in the process of developing, as of the expiration date or earlier termination of the Employment
Period. For purposes of this Section 7(b), the term “employee” shall include consultants and independent contractors
of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries.

(c)If, at the time of
enforcement of Section 5, 6 or 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated
herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable
under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise
the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Executive acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and that he has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement
with his legal counsel.

(d)In the event of the
breach or a threatened breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 7, Parent and the Company would suffer
irreparable harm, and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, each of Parent and the
Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction
in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition,
in the event of an alleged breach or violation by Executive of this Section 7, the Noncompete Period or other restricted
period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

8.Executive’s
Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to Parent and the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement,
instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Executive is not a party
to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity, and

acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this
Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

limitation any persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether
by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company”
for the purposes of this Agreement). This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal
or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise
be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall,
without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Section 15.

16.Choice of Law.
All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and the exhibits
and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

17.Amendment and Waiver.
The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company (as approved by the
Board) and Executive, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any party hereto in enforcing or exercising
any of the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Company’s right to terminate the Employment Period
for Cause or, except as otherwise stated herein, Executive’s right to terminate this Agreement for Good Reason) shall affect
the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or be deemed to be an implied waiver of any provision of this
Agreement.

18.Insurance. The
Company may, at its discretion, apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit life and/or disability insurance
on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination,
supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary
to obtain and constitute such insurance. Executive hereby represents that he has no reason to believe that his life is not insurable
at rates now prevailing for healthy men of his age.

19.Taxes. Parent,
the Company and their Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from Parent, the Company or
any of their Subsidiaries to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes
imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries
or Executive’s ownership interest in Parent or the Company (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the
receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity).

    	 	-10-	 

     

    

20.Dispute Resolution.
Except with respect to disputes or claims under Sections 5, 6 or 7 hereof (which may be pursued in any court
of competent jurisdiction and with respect to which each party shall bear the cost of its own attorney’s fees and expenses
except as otherwise required by applicable law), this Agreement and the rights of any and all parties hereto pursuant hereto shall
be settled by arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, before three (3) arbitrators pursuant to the National Rules for the Resolution
of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (the “Association”). Arbitration may be commenced
at any time by any party hereto giving written notice to each other party to a dispute that such dispute has been referred to arbitration
under this Section 20. Each of the parties hereto shall select one (1) arbitrator within twenty (20) days after the date
of the notice referred to above and the third arbitrator shall be a state or federal court judge selected by the two arbitrators
appointed by the parties hereto, but if the two arbitrators do not so agree within twenty (20) days after their selection by the
parties hereto, the selection shall be made pursuant to the rules of, and from the panels of arbitrators maintained by, the Association.
Any award rendered by the arbitrators shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto; provided, however,
that any such award shall be accompanied by a written opinion of the arbitrators giving the reasons for the award. This provision
for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable by the parties and the decision of the arbitrators in accordance herewith shall
be final and binding and there shall be no right of appeal therefrom. Each party shall pay its own expenses of arbitration and
the expenses of the arbitrators shall be equally shared; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the arbitrators
any claim for indemnification or any defense or objection thereto was unreasonable, the arbitrators may assess, as part of their
award, all or any part of the arbitration expenses of the other party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and of the arbitrators
against the party raising such unreasonable claim, defense or objection. To the extent that arbitration may not be legally permitted
hereunder and the parties to any dispute hereunder may not at the time of such dispute mutually agree to submit such dispute to
arbitration, the resolution of such dispute shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this
Section 20 shall prevent the parties from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time.

21.Waiver of Jury Trial.
As a specifically bargained for inducement for each of the parties hereto to enter into
this Agreement (after having the opportunity to consult with counsel), each party
hereto expressly waives the right to trial by jury in any lawsuit or proceeding relating to or arising in any way from this Agreement
or the matters contemplated hereby.

22.Corporate Opportunity.
During the Employment Period, Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers
presented to Executive or of which Executive becomes aware which relate to the business of providing payment processing services
to merchants (provided directly and indirectly through independent sales organizations and agents) and related operations, including,
but not limited to, facilitating the exchange of information and funds between merchants and cardholders’ financial institutions,
providing end-to-end electronic payment processing services to merchants, including merchant set-up and training, transaction
authorization and electronic draft capture, clearing and settlement, merchant accounting, merchant assistance and support and
risk management or provides products at any time during the Employment Period (“Corporate Opportunities”).
Unless approved by the Board, Executive shall not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on Executive’s
own behalf.

    	 	-11-	 

     

    

23.Executive’s
Cooperation. During the Employment Period and for one (1) year thereafter, Executive shall, subject to the Company reimbursing
Executive for out-of-pocket expenses, cooperate with Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or
administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Executive
being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s
request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent
information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all
at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments).

24.Section 409A Compliance.

(a)The intent of the parties
is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance
promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted,
this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional
tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section
409A.

(b)A termination of employment
shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or
benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service”
within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,”
“termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

(c)Notwithstanding any
other payment schedule provided herein to the contrary, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified
employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then each of the following shall apply:

(i)With regard to
any payment that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,”
such payment shall be made on the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the
date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (B) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay
Period”) to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments delayed
pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such
delay) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum, and all remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided
in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein; and

(ii)To the extent
that any benefits to be provided during the Delay Period is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A provided
on account of a “separation from service,” and such benefits are not otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A, Executive
shall pay the cost of such benefits during the Delay Period, and the Company shall reimburse Executive, to the extent that such
costs would otherwise have been paid by the Company or to the extent that such benefits would otherwise have been provided by
the Company at no cost to Executive, the Company’s share of the cost of such benefits upon expiration of the Delay Period,
and any remaining benefits shall be reimbursed or provided by the Company in accordance with the procedures specified herein.

    	 	-12-	 

     

    

(d)For purposes of Code
Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any installment payment pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right
to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(e)Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred
compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset, counterclaim or recoupment by any other amount payable
to Executive unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

25.Legal Fees Associated
with this Agreement. Following the closing of the Merger, Parent shall reimburse Executive for the documented legal fees and
expenses of Executive’s counsel in connection with the review, negotiation, drafting and finalization of this Agreement in
an amount not to exceed twenty thousand dollars ($20,000).

CARDCONNECT, LLC

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

This AMENDED AND RESTATED
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of July 29, 2016, by and between FinTech Acquisition
Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), CardConnect, LLC (f/k/a Financial Transaction Services, LLC),
a Delaware limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Company”),
and Charles B. Bernicker (“Executive”).

WHEREAS, effective as of the
date hereof, FTS Holding Corporation, the Company’s parent corporation, merged with and into FinTech Merger Sub, Inc. (the
“Merger”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and the entity surviving the merger changed its name to FTS
Holding Corporation (“FTS”);

WHEREAS, in connection with
the Merger, the Company and the Executive desire to modify certain terms of the Employment Agreement between such parties dated
as of July 25, 2012 (the “Original Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, this Agreement amends
and restates in its entirety the Original Employment Agreement.

In consideration of the mutual
covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Employment. Parent
and the Company shall employ Executive, and Executive hereby accepts employment with Parent and the Company, upon the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning on the date hereof and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof
(the “Employment Period”).

2.Position and Duties.

(a)During the Employment
Period, Executive shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries (as defined below) and
shall have the normal duties, responsibilities, and authority of an executive serving in such position subject to the direction
of Parent’s Chief Executive Officer and Parent’s board of directors (the “Board”).

(b)Executive shall report
to Parent’s Chief Executive Officer and the Board and shall devote his best efforts and full business time and attention
(except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of Parent,
the Company and their Subsidiaries. Executive shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to Parent, the Company
and their Subsidiaries hereunder in good faith and to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient
manner and shall comply with Parent’s , the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’ policies and procedures in all
material respects. So long as Executive is employed by Parent or the Company, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Board (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), accept other employment or perform other services for compensation;
provided, that Executive may (i) serve as an officer or director of or otherwise participate in purely educational, welfare,
social, religious and civic organizations so long as such activities do not materially interfere with Executive’s services
and obligations hereunder, and (ii) make and manage personal investments of his choice so long as such activities do not
materially interfere with Executive’s services and obligations hereunder.

     

     

    

(c)Executive shall perform
his duties hereunder at the Company’s offices in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. It is understood that Executive shall undertake
such business travel as reasonably required by Parent or the Company to perform his duties and responsibilities.

(d)For purposes of this
Agreement “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership
interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of determination,
owned by Parent or the Company, directly or through one of more Subsidiaries.

3.Compensation and
Benefits.

(a)During the Employment
Period, Executive’s base salary shall be three hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($350,000) per annum, subject to increase
as approved by Parent’s compensation committee (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be payable by Parent
in regular installments in accordance with Parent’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). In addition,
during the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of Parent’s and the Company’s vacation,
paid holidays, medical and other employee benefit programs for which members of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries’
executive management team are generally eligible. Executive shall be entitled to six (6) weeks of paid time off each calendar year,
which if not taken during any year may not be carried forward to any subsequent year and no compensation shall be payable in lieu
thereof, except as otherwise required by law.

(b)During the Employment
Period, Parent shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in the course of performing
his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with Parent’s policies in effect from time to time
with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to Parent’s requirements with respect to reporting
and documentation of such expenses, provided that Executive shall be entitled to travel business class on all flights taken by
Executive in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

(c)All expenses or other
reimbursements under this Agreement which would be deemed taxable income to the Executive shall be made on or prior to the last
day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive. Any right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and no such reimbursement, expenses eligible
for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement,
or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(d)In addition to the
Base Salary, Executive shall be eligible to receive, in respect of each full calendar year, subject to his continued employment
through the last day of each calendar year and at the discretion of Parent’s compensation committee (except as otherwise
provided herein), a bonus based on the performance of the Company, as measured by the Company’s achievement of certain target(s)
approved by Parent’s compensation committee (the “Annual Bonus”). During the Employment Period, Executive’s
target Annual Bonus shall not be less than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Base Salary. The amount of the Annual Bonus for the
2016 calendar year shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the annual incentive plan under which Executive
participated immediately prior to the Merger. All amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be payable in cash to Executive
within fourteen (14) days following completion of the annual accounting audit of Parent and the Company, but in any event no later
than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following the fiscal year in respect of which such payment is earned or as soon
as administratively practicable within the meaning of Code Section 409A (as defined below). 

    	 	-2-	 

     

    

 (e)As soon as practicable
after the consummation of the Merger, Executive shall be granted equity compensation in the form of nonqualified stock options
(the “Options”) pursuant to the equity compensation plan to be adopted by Parent (or its successor) in connection
with the Merger (the “Equity Plan”), to purchase a number of shares of common stock of the Parent (or its successor)
equal to 12% of the total shares authorized for issuance under the Equity Plan at an exercise price equal to the fair market value
of such shares on the grant date. The Options shall be issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and the terms
and conditions of the Options shall be consistent with similar equity-based compensation awards granted to similarly-situated senior
executives of Parent; provided, however, that (i) the Options shall vest and become exercisable in four equal annual
installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date hereof, except that the Options shall become fully vested and exercisable
(A) if the Employment Period is terminated by Parent without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason or (B) upon a “change
of control” (as such term is defined in the Equity Plan) and (ii) the scheduled expiration date of the Options shall be 10
years from the grant date of the Options.

4.Term.

(a)The Employment Period
shall end on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof and shall automatically be renewed on the same terms and conditions
set forth herein as modified from time to time by the parties hereto for additional one-year periods beginning on such fifth (5th)
anniversary unless either party notifies the other no later than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then current term that
it does not wish to renew the Agreement; provided, that (i) the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executive’s
resignation with Good Reason or without Good Reason, death or Disability, and (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by Parent
at the sole discretion of the Board at any time for Cause or without Cause. Any termination of the Employment Period by Parent
shall be effective as specified in a written notice from Parent to Executive.

(b)If the Employment
Period is terminated by Parent without Cause (other than as a result of Executive’s Disability) or by Executive with Good
Reason, Executive shall be entitled to (i) a lump sum cash payment within fourteen (14) days following the date of his termination
of employment equal to the sum of (A) his accrued but unused vacation, (B) Base Salary payable through the date of termination,
(C) any accrued but unpaid bonus or incentive compensation earned by Executive for a prior fiscal year, (D) the target Annual
Bonus for the year in which the Employment Period was terminated, to the extent it would have been payable to Executive under
Section 3(d),, prorated on the basis of the number of full days of service rendered by Executive during such year, and
(E) any unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 3(b), and (ii) an amount equal
to twelve (12) months of Executive’s Base Salary, less applicable withholdings and deductions, such amount payable in regular
installments in accordance with Parent’s normal payroll practices at the time of termination over a period of twelve (12)
months commencing on the date the Employment Period is terminated (the “Severance Period”), in each case if
and only if Executive has executed and delivered to Parent and the Company the Parent’s standard, a general release in form
and substance satisfactory to the Board (the “Release”) within thirty (30) days of such termination and only
so long as Executive has not revoked or breached the provisions of such Release or breached the provisions of Sections 5,
6 and 7 hereof during the Severance Period. Executive shall forfeit all rights to payment under clause (ii) of this
Section 4(b) unless the Release is signed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within thirty
(30) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment. Subject to the provisions of Section 24, if
the general release is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the preceding sentence, then
payments under clause (ii) of this Section 4(b) shall be made or commence upon the thirtieth (30th) day following
Executive’s termination of employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would
have been due prior thereto under the terms of this Agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon Executive’s termination
of employment, and any payments made thereafter shall continue in accordance with Parent ’s payroll practices at the time
of termination. In addition, if Executive elects to continue and pays his health insurance coverage under Section 4980B of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“COBRA”), following the termination of Executive’s employment,
then Parent shall pay or reimburse Executive for the portion of the monthly premium under COBRA for such coverage in excess of
the portion paid by active employees for similar coverage until the earliest of (x) the expiration of the Severance Period
and (y) the date Executive receives substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment
or self-employment.

    	 	-3-	 

     

    

(c)If the Employment Period
is terminated (i) by Parent for Cause, (ii) due to Executive’s death or Disability, or (iii) by Executive’s resignation
without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary through the date of such termination, any accrued but
unused vacation, any accrued but unpaid bonus or incentive compensation earned by Executive for a prior fiscal year, and unreimbursed
business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 3(b), all of which shall be payable in a lump sum cash
payment within fourteen (14) days following the date of his termination of employment.

(d)Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from
Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to
salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination
of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment
Period (including, without limitation, any vested rights under the Equity Plan (and any successor plans)) or other amounts owing
hereunder as of the date of such termination that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly
required under applicable law (such as COBRA).

(e)Parent, the Company
and their Subsidiaries may offset any amounts Executive owes Parent, the Company or such Subsidiaries against any amounts Parent,
the Company or such Subsidiaries, as applicable, owes Executive hereunder, except as provided in Section 24(e) or under
applicable law.

(f)For purposes of this
Agreement, “Cause” shall mean with respect to Executive one or more of the following: (i) the conviction of,
or plea of no contest by, Executive with respect to a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude offense if, and only if,
it is determined by the Board that such event has occurred and merits termination of the Executive’s employment pursuant
to this Agreement, (ii) the commission of any other act or omission by Executive involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty,
theft or fraud with respect to Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their business relationships, (iii)
Executive’s illegal possession of a controlled substance, use of illegal drugs or repetitive abuse of alcohol or other behavior
which materially interferes with the performance of his duties to Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary or which compromises the
integrity and reputation of Executive, Parent, the Company or any Subsidiaries, (iv) Executive’s failure to substantially
perform material duties as reasonably directed by Parent’s Chief Executive Officer or the Board in accordance with this
Agreement continuing beyond thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such failure, (v) Executive’s willful act
or omission aiding or abetting a competitor of Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries to the material disadvantage or
detriment of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries, (vi) Executive’s willful failure to comply in all material respects
with Parent and the Company’s material policies, procedures and guidelines, including corporate governance and human relations
policies, and applicable laws with respect to Parent’s and the Company’s business operations, (vii) Executive’s
breach of fiduciary duty, gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries,
or (viii) any other material breach by Executive of this Agreement which is not cured to the Board’s reasonable satisfaction
within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to Executive. For purposes of clauses (v), (vi) and (vii) above, no act or
failure to act on the part of Executive shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by
Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of Parent
or the Company.

    	 	-4-	 

     

    

(g)The Executive’s
“Disability” shall be deemed to have occurred only if, as a result of his incapacity due to physical or mental
illness, Executive is considered disabled under the Company’s or Parent’s long-term disability insurance plans.

(h)For purposes of this
Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean if Executive resigns from employment with Parent or the Company prior to
the end of the Employment Period as a result of one or more of the following reasons: (i) any material breach by Parent or the
Company of this Agreement including a reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or target Annual Bonus opportunity or a material
reduction in Executive’s employee benefits in the aggregate under this Agreement, (ii) a material reduction or diminution
of Executive’s duties, authority or responsibilities (including any change in his reporting requirements), or (iii) a material
change in Executive’s principal place of employment to a location more than 25 miles outside of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.
Notwithstanding the above, the occurrence of any of the events described in (i), (ii) or (iii) above will not constitute a “Good
Reason” unless Executive gives Parent written notice, within sixty (60) calendar days after the occurrence of any such events
that such circumstances constitute “Good Reason,” and Parent or the Company thereafter fails to cure such circumstances
within 30 days after receipt of such notice. The termination of the Employment Period for Cause shall preclude Executive’s
resignation with Good Reason.

(i)Executive shall not
be required to mitigate the severance benefits contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive
from any other source reduce any such severance benefits.

5.Confidential Information.

(a)Executive acknowledges
that the continued success of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of
a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or
to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential
Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied
in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to Parent’s, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’
or affiliates’ current or potential business, and (ii) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information
includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by him whether before or after the date
of this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, information
concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to Parent, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’
business or industry of which Executive becomes aware, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective business
relations, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic,
marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists
and telephone numbers, locations of sales agents, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, merchant service,
integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that he
shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s
prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available
for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act, or (ii) is required to be disclosed
pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to Parent at the end of the Employment Period, or at
any other time the Board may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies
thereof) relating to the business of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all
Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control.

    	 	-5-	 

     

    

(b)During the Employment
Period, Executive shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any
other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of Parent, the Company
or their Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person
to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Executive
shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training
and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally
in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or affiliates, or
(iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Executive
has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during
employment with Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary, Executive believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will
be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers or other persons, Executive
shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c)Executive shall immediately
notify the Board of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information
by Executive or any other person or entity of which Executive becomes aware. Executive shall cooperate fully with the Company in
the procurement of any protection of Parent or the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(d)Executive understands
that Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information
(“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s, the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’
and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.
During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 5(a) above,
Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel
of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for

6.Intellectual Property,
Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements,
developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or
not including any Confidential Information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information
and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to Parent’s, the Company’s or any of
their Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and
which are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by Parent, the Company
or any Subsidiary, whether before or after the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), shall be deemed to be
“work made for hire” (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. § 101 et seq., as amended) and
belong exclusively to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product to the Board
and, at Parent’s expense, perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period)
to establish and confirm such title and ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and
other instruments).

7.Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation.

(a) In further consideration
of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of his employment with Parent,
the Company and their Subsidiaries (including predecessors of such entities) Executive has and shall become familiar with Parent’s,
the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent, the
Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates and that his services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary
value to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and affiliates, and, therefore, Executive agrees that, during the Employment
Period and for twenty-four (24) months thereafter (the “Noncompete Period”), Executive shall not directly or
indirectly, either for himself or for any other person, partnership, corporation, company or other entity, own any interest in,
manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any other manner engage in any business or enterprise
which (i) is engaged in the business of developing, marketing, licensing and maintaining payment, security and encryption software
solutions, including payment acceptance, authorization, settlement and reconciliation of funds functionality or (ii) provides
payment processing services to merchants (provided directly and indirectly through independent sales organizations and agents)
and related operations, including, but not limited to, facilitating the exchange of information and funds between merchants and
cardholders’ financial institutions, providing end-to-end electronic payment processing services to merchants, including
merchant set-up and training, transaction authorization and electronic draft capture, clearing and settlement, merchant accounting,
merchant assistance and support and risk management or provides products, or services which are similar to or compete with any
other products or services of Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries (or any products or services Parent, the Company
or any of their Subsidiaries are currently in the process of developing), as of the expiration date or earlier termination of
the Employment Period, anywhere within the United States of America (any of the foregoing, a “Competitive Activity”).
For purposes of this Agreement, “participate” includes any direct or indirect interest in any enterprise, whether
as an officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, executive, franchisor,
franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise; provided, that the foregoing activities shall not include the passive ownership
(i.e., Executive does not directly or indirectly participate in the business or management of the applicable entity) of less than
two (2)% of the stock of a publicly-traded corporation.

    	 	-7-	 

     

    

(b)During the Employment
Period and for twenty-four (24) months thereafter (the “Nonsolicit Period”), Executive shall not directly or
indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary
to leave the employ of Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent, the
Company or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary
at any time during the twelve (12) months preceding such hiring, (iii) induce or attempt to induce any merchant, agent, independent
sales organization, or other business relation of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent, the
Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such merchant, agent, independent sales organization,
or other business relation and Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging
statements or communications about Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries) or (iv) service, engage in business with or provide
products or services to any merchant, agent, independent sales organization, or other business relation of Parent, the Company
or any Subsidiary with respect to any product or service provided or rendered by Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries
or which Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries is in the process of developing, as of the expiration date or earlier
termination of the Employment Period. For purposes of this Section 7(b), the term “employee” shall include consultants
and independent contractors of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries.

(c)If, at the time of
enforcement of Section 5, 6 or 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated
herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable
under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise
the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Executive acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and that he has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement
with his legal counsel.

(d)In the event of the
breach or a threatened breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 7, Parent and the Company would suffer
irreparable harm, and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, each of Parent and the
Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction
in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition,
in the event of an alleged breach or violation by Executive of this Section 7, the Noncompete Period and/or Nonsolicit Period
shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

(e)Executive agrees that
the aforementioned covenants are reasonable with respect to their duration, geographical area and scope. In particular, Executive
acknowledges and agrees that the geographic scope of these restrictions is necessary to protect the goodwill and Confidential Information
of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries.

8.Executive’s
Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to Parent and the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement,
instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Executive is not a party
to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity, other

15.Successors and Assigns.

limitation any persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether
by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company”
for the purposes of this Agreement). This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal
or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise
be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall,
without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as

16.Choice of Law.
All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and the exhibits
and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without

jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

17.Amendment and Waiver.
The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company (as approved by the
Board) and Executive, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any party hereto in enforcing or exercising
any of the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Company’s right to terminate the Employment Period

    	 	-10-	 

     

    

 

19.Taxes. Parent,
the Company and their Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from Parent, the Company or
any of their Subsidiaries to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes
imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries
or Executive’s ownership interest in Parent or the Company (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the
receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity).

20.Dispute Resolution.
Except with respect to disputes or claims under Sections 5, 6 or 7 hereof (which may be pursued in any court
of competent jurisdiction and with respect to which each party shall bear the cost of its own attorney’s fees and expenses
except as otherwise required by applicable law), this Agreement and the rights of any and all parties hereto pursuant hereto shall
be settled by arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, before three (3) arbitrators pursuant to the National Rules for the Resolution
of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (the “Association”). Arbitration may be commenced
at any time by any party hereto giving written notice to each other party to a dispute that such dispute has been referred to arbitration
under this Section 20. Each of the parties hereto shall select one (1) arbitrator within twenty (20) days after the date
of the notice referred to above and the third arbitrator shall be a state or federal court judge selected by the two arbitrators
appointed by the parties hereto, but if the two arbitrators do not so agree within twenty (20) days after their selection by the
parties hereto, the selection shall be made pursuant to the rules of, and from the panels of arbitrators maintained by, the Association.
Any award rendered by the arbitrators shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto; provided, however,
that any such award shall be accompanied by a written opinion of the arbitrators giving the reasons for the award. This provision
for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable by the parties and the decision of the arbitrators in accordance herewith shall
be final and binding and there shall be no right of appeal therefrom. Each party shall pay its own expenses of arbitration and
the expenses of the arbitrators shall be equally shared; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the arbitrators
any claim for indemnification or any defense or objection thereto was unreasonable, the arbitrators may assess, as part of their
award, all or any part of the arbitration expenses of the other party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and of the arbitrators
against the party raising such unreasonable claim, defense or objection. To the extent that arbitration may not be legally permitted
hereunder and the parties to any dispute hereunder may not at the time of such dispute mutually agree to submit such dispute to
arbitration, the resolution of such dispute shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this
Section 20 shall prevent the parties from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time.

21.Waiver of Jury Trial.
As a specifically bargained for inducement for each of the parties hereto to enter into
this Agreement (after having the opportunity to consult with counsel), each party
hereto expressly waives the right to trial by jury in any lawsuit or proceeding relating to or arising in any way from this Agreement
or the matters contemplated hereby.

22.Corporate Opportunity.
During the Employment Period, Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers
presented to Executive or of which Executive becomes aware which relate to the business of providing payment processing services
to merchants (provided directly and indirectly through independent sales organizations and agents) and related operations, including,
but not limited to, facilitating the exchange of information and funds between merchants and cardholders’ financial institutions,
providing end-to-end electronic payment processing services to merchants, including merchant set-up and training, transaction
authorization and electronic draft capture, clearing and settlement, merchant accounting, merchant assistance and support and
risk management or provides products at any time during the Employment Period (“Corporate Opportunities”).

own behalf.

23.Executive’s
Cooperation. During the Employment Period and for one (1) year thereafter, Executive shall, subject to the Company reimbursing
Executive for out-of-pocket expenses, cooperate with Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or
administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Executive
being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s
request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent
information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all
at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments).

24.Section 409A Compliance.

(a)The intent of the parties
is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance
promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted,
this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional
tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section
409A.

(b)A termination of employment
shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or
benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service”
within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,”
“termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

(c)Notwithstanding any
other payment schedule provided herein to the contrary, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified
employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then each of the following shall apply:

(i)With regard to
any payment that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,”
such payment shall be made on the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the
date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (B) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay
Period”) to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments delayed
pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such
delay) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum, and all remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided
in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein; and

(ii)To the extent
that any benefits to be provided during the Delay Period is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A provided
on account of a “separation from service,” and such benefits are not otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A, Executive
shall pay the cost of such benefits during the Delay Period, and the Company shall reimburse Executive, to the extent that such
costs would otherwise have been paid by the Company or to the extent that such benefits would otherwise have been provided by
the Company at no cost to Executive, the Company’s share of the cost of such benefits upon expiration of the Delay Period,
and any remaining benefits shall be reimbursed or provided by the Company in accordance with the procedures specified herein.

    	 	-12-	 

     

    

(d)For purposes of Code
Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any installment payment pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right
to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(e)Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred
compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset, counterclaim or recoupment by any other amount payable
to Executive unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.
