To Our Clients:

 

Enclosed for your consideration are the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange dated December 26, 2018 and the related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Letter of Transmittal and Consent”), which together set forth the offer of Priority Technology Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, to each holder of its warrants to purchase one share of common stock, par value of  $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) for a purchase price of  $11.50, to receive 0.1920 shares of Common Stock in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”). The Offer is made solely upon the terms and conditions in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and in the Letter of Transmittal and Consent. The Offer will be open until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on January 25, 2019, or such later time and date to which the Company may extend. The period during which the Offer is open, giving effect to any withdrawal or extension, is referred to as the “Offer Period.” The date and time at which the Offer Period ends is referred to as the “Expiration Date.”

 

The Offer is being made to:

 

All holders of our publicly traded warrants to purchase our Common Stock, which were originally issued as warrants to purchase the common stock, $0.0001 par value, of M I Acquisitions, Inc. (“M I”) in connection with the initial public offering of M I’s securities on September 19, 2016 (the “M I IPO”), which entitle such warrant holders to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50, subject to adjustments, referred to as the “Public Warrants.” Our Common Stock is listed on The NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “PRTH,” and our Public Warrants are listed on NASDAQ under the symbol “PRTHW.” As of December 21, 2018, 5,310,109 Public Warrants were outstanding. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 1,019,541 shares of Common Stock in exchange for the Public Warrants.

 

 

 

 

All holders of certain of our warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock that were privately issued in connection with the M I IPO based on an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, referred to as the “Private Warrants.” The Private Warrants entitle the holders to purchase one share of Common Stock for a purchase price of $11.50, subject to adjustments. The terms of the Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that such Private Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and are not redeemable by us, in each case so long as they are still held by the initial holders or their affiliates. The Public Warrants and Private Warrants are referred to collectively as the “Warrants.” As of December 21, 2018, 421,107 Private Warrants were outstanding. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 80,852 shares of our Common Stock in exchange for the Private Warrants.

 

Each Warrant holder whose Warrants are exchanged pursuant to the Offer will receive 0.1920 shares of Common Stock for each Warrant tendered by such holder and exchanged. Any Warrant holder that participates in the Offer may tender less than all of its Warrants for exchange.

 

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued pursuant to the Offer. In lieu of issuing fractional shares, any holder of Warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer will, after aggregating all such fractional shares of such holder, be paid cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share multiplied by the last sale price of the Common Stock on NASDAQ on the last trading day of the Offer Period. The Company’s obligation to complete the offer is not conditioned on the receipt of a minimum number of tendered warrants.

 

Concurrently with the Offer, we are also soliciting consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the Warrants to amend (the “Warrant Amendment”) the Warrant Agreement, dated as of September 13, 2016, by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Warrant Agreement”), which governs all of the Warrants to permit the Company to require that each outstanding Warrant be converted into 0.1728 shares of Common Stock, which is a ratio 10% less than the ratio applicable to the Offer. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, the consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Warrants is required to approve the Warrant Amendment, with the Public Warrant holders and Private Warrant holders voting together. Therefore, one of the conditions to the adoption of the Warrant Amendment is the receipt of the consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Warrants. You may not consent to the Warrant Amendment without tendering your Warrants in the Offer and you may not tender your Warrants without consenting to the Warrant Amendment. The consent to the Warrant Amendment is a part of the letter of transmittal and consent relating to the Warrants, and therefore by tendering your warrants for exchange you will deliver to us your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time prior to the Expiration Date by withdrawing the Warrants you have tendered.

 

If at least a majority of the holders of the outstanding warrants do not provide consent to the Warrant Amendment, Warrants not exchanged for shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Offer will remain outstanding subject to their current terms, including any such terms permitting the Company to redeem such Warrants prior to their expiration. The Company reserves the right to redeem any of the Warrants, as applicable, pursuant to their current terms at any time, including prior to the completion of the Offer.

 

THE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION IS NOT MADE TO THOSE HOLDERS WHO RESIDE IN STATES OR OTHER JURISDICTIONS WHERE AN OFFER, SOLICITATION OR SALE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL.

 

Please follow the instructions in this document and the related documents, including the accompanying Letter of Transmittal and Consent, to cause your Warrants to be tendered for exchange pursuant to the Offer and provide consent to the Warrant Amendment.

 

On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Company will allow the exchange of all Warrants properly tendered before the Expiration Date and not properly withdrawn, at an exchange rate of 0.1920 shares of Common Stock for each Warrant so tendered.
