1.     Grant of Options.

1.1    Grant; Type of Option Award. Pursuant to Section 6.1 of the EVO Payments, Inc. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”), the Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of options (the “Options”) to purchase Shares of the Company set forth above, at the Exercise Price set forth above. The Options are intended to be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, although the Company makes no representation or guarantee that the Options will qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined on the Grant Date) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its affiliates) exceeds $100,000, the Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.

1.2    Consideration; Subject to Plan. The grant of the Options are made in consideration of the services to be rendered by the Participant to the Company or its affiliates and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.

2.    Exercise Period; Vesting.

If the Participant incurs a Termination of Service as the result of death or Disability, the Participant will become vested in the number of Options (rounded up to the nearest whole Option) that would have become vested as of the anniversary of the Grant Date next following such Participant’s death or Disability.

2.3    Forfeiture. Subject to Section 2.2, the Participant’s unvested Options shall be automatically forfeited upon the Participant’s Termination of Service, and neither the Company nor any affiliate shall have any further obligations to the Participant under this Agreement.

2.4    Expiration. The Options will expire on the Expiration Date set forth above, or earlier as provided in this Agreement or the Plan.

3.    Termination of Service. The Participant’s Options shall be forfeited upon his or her Termination of Service, except as set forth below:

3.1    Termination of Service for Reasons Other Than Cause, Death, or Disability. Upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than death, Disability, or for Cause, any Options held by such Participant that were vested and exercisable immediately before such Termination of Service may be exercised at any time until the earlier of (a) the ninetieth (90th) day following such Termination of Service and (b) the Expiration Date.

4.    Manner of Exercise.

4.1    Election to Exercise. To exercise Options, the Participant (or in the case of exercise after the Participant’s death or incapacity, the Participant’s executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company a written notice of intent to exercise in the form specified or accepted by the Committee (or by complying with any alternative exercise procedures that may be authorized by the Committee), setting forth the number of Options to be exercised. If someone other than the Participant exercises the Options, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company verifying that such person has the legal right to exercise such Options.

4.2    Payment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of the Options exercised shall be payable to the Company in full at the time of exercise, in cash, certified or bank check or such other instrument as the Committee may accept. If approved by the Committee, and subject to any terms, conditions, and limitations as the Committee may prescribe and to the extent permitted by law, payment of the Exercise Price, in full or in part, may also be made in one or more of the manners permitted by Section 6.6 of the Plan.

4.3    Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate is authorized to withhold from any Award granted or payment due under the Plan the amount of all federal, state, local and non-United States taxes due in respect of such Award or payment and take any such other action as may be necessary or appropriate, as determined by the Committee, to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income or wages of a Participant for federal, state, local and non-United States tax purposes with respect to any Award, such Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any federal, state, local, or non-United States taxes or social security (or similar) contributions of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount, in accordance with Sections 17.1 and 17.2 the Plan.

4.4    Issuance of Shares. Subject to any governing rules or regulations, as soon as practicable after receipt of a written notification of exercise and full payment in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 4 and satisfaction of tax obligations, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, in the Participant’s name, evidence of book entry Shares, in an appropriate amount based upon the number Options exercised.

5.    No Right to Continued Service; No Rights as Shareholder. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to be retained in any position, as an Employee, consultant, advisor or Nonemployee Director of the Company. Further, nothing in the

3

Plan or this Agreement shall be construed to limit the discretion of the Company to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time, with or without Cause. No Participant or other person shall become the Beneficial Owner of any Shares subject to the Options until a book entry has been created for the Participant with respect to such Shares following exercise of his or her Options in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.

6.    Transferability. Unless otherwise designated by the Committee or as provided in the Plan, the Options shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any nontransferable Options or any right or privilege confirmed hereby contrary to the provisions hereof, the Options and the rights and privileges confirmed hereby shall immediately become null and void.

8.    Adjustments. The number of Options may be adjusted in any manner as contemplated by Section 4.4 of the Plan.

9.    Tax Liability and Withholding. Notwithstanding any action the Company takes with respect to income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and the Company (a) makes no representation or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Options or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired on exercise; and (b) does not commit to structure the Options to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

10.    Compliance with Law. The exercise of the Options and the issuance and transfer of Shares shall be subject to compliance by the Company and the Participant with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed. No Shares shall be issued pursuant to exercised Options unless and until any then applicable requirements of state or federal laws and regulatory agencies have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel. The Participant understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission or any stock exchange to effect such compliance.

16.    Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan or this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, and each provision of the Plan and this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

17.    Discretionary Nature of Plan. The Plan is discretionary and may be amended, cancelled or terminated by the Company at any time, in its discretion. The grant of the Options in this Agreement does not create any contractual right or other right to receive any Options or other Awards in the future. Future Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. Any amendment, modification, or termination of the Plan shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company.
