Priority Technology Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), DOES HEREBY CERTIFY as of June 30, 2023:

Section 1.    Designation of Series and Number of Shares. The shares of the series of preferred stock are designated as shares of “Senior Preferred Stock,” par value $.001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Senior Preferred Stock”), and the number of shares constituting such series is 250,000, of which (i) 150,000 shares were issued on the Initial Closing Date pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii) 75,000 shares were issued on the Acquisition Closing Date pursuant to the Purchase

Agreement, and (iii) up to 25,000 shares shall be issued on one or more Delayed Closing Dates (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (this clause (iii), the “Authorized Delayed Senior Preferred Stock”).

Section 2.    Ranking. The Senior Preferred Stock ranks, (a) with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions on, and purchase, repurchase or any redemption of, any Capital Stock (provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2 shall prohibit the Corporation from paying a dividend or distribution, or making a purchase, repurchase or redemption, that is permitted pursuant to Section 7 or require the Corporation to pay any cash Dividend on the Senior Preferred Stock except to the extent that the Board has declared such Dividend) and (b) in the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of, and upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation: (i) senior to the Common Stock and each other existing or future class or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation, except for any Parity Securities or Senior Securities (collectively, with the Common Stock (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Parity Securities or Senior Securities), the “Junior Securities”); (ii) on a parity with each other class or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation hereafter issued in compliance with the terms hereof (including Section 7) and the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank on a parity basis with the Senior Preferred Stock with respect to payment of any such dividends and distributions, such purchase, repurchase or redemption and in any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of, and upon any such distribution of the assets of, the Corporation (collectively, the “Parity Securities”); and (iii) junior to each other class or series of preferred stock or any other Capital Stock of the Corporation hereafter issued in compliance with the terms hereof (including Section 7) and the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank senior to the Senior Preferred Stock with respect to payment of such dividends and distributions, such purchase, repurchase or redemption and in any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of, and upon any such distribution of the assets of, the Corporation (collectively, the “Senior Securities”).

Section 3.    Maturity. The Senior Preferred Stock has no stated maturity. Shares of Senior Preferred Stock will remain outstanding indefinitely until redeemed in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designations or otherwise repurchased by the Corporation. The Corporation shall not be required to set aside funds to redeem or repurchase the Senior Preferred Stock.

Section 4.    Dividends.

(a)Payment and Accrual of Dividends. Dividends (“Dividends”) on the outstanding Senior Preferred Stock (i) shall accrue on a daily basis on the sum of the Liquidation Preference plus the aggregate accrued and unpaid Dividends as of the end of the immediately preceding Dividend Period, in each case, at the Dividend Rate set forth in Section 4(b) below and (ii) shall be cumulative. Dividends shall be payable only in cash and shall be payable on each Dividend Payment Date only when, as and if declared by the Board out of legally available funds for such purpose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and for the avoidance of doubt; (x) no Dividends may be declared and paid in securities or otherwise “in kind,” (y) no Dividends shall be declared or paid in cash in anticipation of any optional or mandatory redemption of the Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 9 or any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and (z) Dividends will accrue as set forth herein regardless of whether such Dividends have been declared by the Board and whether or not there are any profits, surplus or other funds legally available for the payment thereof. All Dividends paid with respect to shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be paid pro rata to the Holders in proportion to the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock held.

If the Corporation elects to pay Dividends on a Dividend Payment Date in whole or in part in cash, then not less than 10 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date, the Corporation shall notify the Holders in writing of such election; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Holders are not so notified, such Dividends shall accrue (and be cumulative) but shall not be paid. After the end of each Dividend Period, at such times as the Corporation is required to deliver any financial statements pursuant

to Section 13(a)(ii) with respect to the quarterly period that corresponds with such Dividend Period (or in which such Dividend Period occurred), the Corporation shall provide each Holder with a written statement setting forth the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid Dividends through and including the last day of the applicable Dividend Period with respect to each share of Senior Preferred Stock, including a reasonably detailed calculation thereof and of the applicable Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR included therein.

Each Dividend paid in cash shall be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by each Holder that holds shares of Senior Preferred Stock in writing given to the Corporation at least 5 days prior to the Dividend Payment Date.

The record date for Dividends payable on any Dividend Payment Date shall be the close of business on the 15th calendar day immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date.

(b)Dividend Rate. “Dividend Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR, reset quarterly as provided herein, subject to Section 16, plus the Applicable Margin; provided that, except as provided in this clause (b), the Dividend Rate shall not exceed the sum of (i) 22.50% per annum, plus (ii) the Non-Cash Pay Rate Increase, if any, plus (iii) the Default Rate Increase, if any, plus (iv) the Forced Sale Default Rate Increase, if any. The Dividend Rate shall increase automatically by (i) 2.00% per annum effective as of the first day of each Dividend Period in respect of which the Corporation for any reason does not pay cash Dividends (whether or not declared and whether or not there are any profits, surplus or other funds legally available for the payment thereof or such payment is then permitted by applicable law or any instrument or agreement to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party) at or greater than the Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR for such Dividend Period plus 5.00% per annum (“Non-Cash Pay Rate Increase”) through the final day of such Dividend Period, (ii) 3.00% per annum effective immediately upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of a Preferred Default (a “Default Rate Increase”) and (iii) 5.00% per annum effective immediately upon the 120th calendar day following the approval by the Sale Demand Special Committee of a Sale Transaction if all required stockholder approval under the DGCL, the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise to approve such Sale Transaction shall not have been obtained on or prior to such 120th calendar day (the “Required Stockholder Approval”), plus an additional 5.00% per annum on the 30th calendar day after such 120th calendar day and on the first day of each subsequent 30 calendar day period, which incremental increase(s) shall continue until such time as the Required Stockholder Approval shall have been obtained (the “Forced Sale Default Rate Increase”).

(c)    Dividend Payment Date, Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date, and Dividend Period. A “Dividend Payment Date” shall mean each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. The first Dividend Payment Date was on June 30, 2021. If a Dividend Payment Date, other than a redemption date, falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Dividend Payment Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day.

A “Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date” shall mean each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing June 30, 2023 in respect of the Dividend Period commencing on such date. If any Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date falls on a day that is not a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, the Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, except that if that U.S. Government Securities Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, the Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date will be the immediately preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day.

A “Dividend Period” shall mean each: (i) June 30 through and including September 29; (ii) September 30 through and including December 30; (iii) December 31 through and including March 30; and (iv) March 31 through and including June 29.

(d)    Determination of Three-Month Term SOFR. The Holder Representative shall determine the Three-Month Term SOFR using Three-Month Term SOFR determined by reference to each Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date, except as set forth below or in Section 16. Promptly upon each such determination, the Holder Representative will inform the Corporation and, at the request of any Holder, such Holder or, in certain circumstances described below or in Section 16, the Holder Representative will inform the Corporation, of its determination of the Three-Month Term SOFR with respect to such Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date for the next Dividend Period.

The Three-Month Term SOFR will be reset on each Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date and will be the applicable Three-Month Term SOFR (determined as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph) from and including such Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date to but excluding the next succeeding Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date.

The amount of Dividends accrued for any Dividend Period will be determined by the Corporation and will be computed by multiplying the Dividend Rate for that Dividend Period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that Dividend Period (determined by including the first day of the Dividend Period and excluding the last day and on the basis of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the sum of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus (ii) the aggregate accrued and unpaid Dividends as of the last day of the immediately preceding Dividend Period.

Dividends shall accrue from and including the date of original issuance to but excluding the first Dividend Payment Date. Thereafter, Dividends will accrue from and including the last Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the next succeeding Dividend Payment Date.

(e)    Dividend Rate Calculation. The Dividend Rate for each Dividend Period beginning on a Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date shall be determined by the Holder Representative by adding the Three-Month Term SOFR with respect to the applicable Three-Month Term SOFR Reset Date, plus the Three-Month Term SOFR Spread Adjustment, plus the Applicable Margin.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Holder Representative or the Corporation reasonably determines prior to any setting of the Three-Month Term SOFR (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable) that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Three-Month Term SOFR Reference Rate (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions of Section 16 will thereafter apply to all determinations of the Dividend Rate. In accordance with Section 16, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of Dividends that will accrue for each Dividend Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement and the Applicable Margin. However, if the Holder Representative or the Corporation reasonably determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Three-Month Term SOFR (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), but for any reason the Benchmark Replacement has not been determined prior to the setting of the Three-Month Term SOFR (or such then-current Benchmark), the Three-Month Term SOFR (or such other then-current Benchmark) for the applicable Dividend Period will be equal to the Three-Month Term SOFR (or such other then-current Benchmark) for the immediately preceding Dividend Period.

Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the calculation of the applicable Three-Month Term SOFR for each Dividend Period by the Holder Representative shall be final and binding on the Corporation and the Holders and the calculation of the applicable Dividend Rate for each Dividend Period by the Corporation shall be final and binding on the Holders.

In connection with the use or administration of Three-Month Term SOFR, the Holder Representative in consultation with the Corporation will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the documentation relating to the Senior Preferred Stock, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of the Corporation or any Holder. The Holder Representative will promptly notify the Corporation and the Holders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Three-Month Term SOFR.

(f)    Rounding. All percentages resulting from any calculation of any Dividend Rate will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.456789% (or .03456789) being rounded to 3.45679% (or .0345679)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).

Section 5.    Liquidation Event. Upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, each share of Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to the Corporation’s stockholders, before any distribution or payment may be made to a holder of any Junior Securities by reason of its ownership thereof, an amount per share of Senior Preferred Stock in cash in immediately available funds equal to the Redemption Price payable at the time of such Liquidation Event pursuant to Section 9(b). If upon any such Liquidation Event, the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to the Corporation’s stockholders are insufficient to pay the Holders the full amount of such Redemption Price for each outstanding share of Senior Preferred Stock and the full amount (if any) to which the holders of any Parity Securities are entitled, the Holders and the holders of such Parity Securities, as applicable, will share ratably in any such distribution of the assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full respective amounts (if any) to which they are entitled with respect to their shares of Senior Preferred Stock and Parity Securities upon such Liquidation Event. After indefeasible payment to the Holders of the full amount of such Redemption Price to which they are entitled, the Holders as such will have no right or claim to any of the assets of the Corporation. No holder of Junior Securities shall receive any cash or other consideration upon a Liquidation Event by reason of its ownership thereof unless the full amount of such Redemption Price to which Holders are entitled in respect of all outstanding Senior Preferred Stock and any amounts to which any holders of Parity Securities are entitled upon such Liquidation Event have been paid in full in cash in immediately available funds.

Section 6.    Voting Rights. Subject to the express provisions of this Certificate of Designations, except to the extent required by the DGCL, the Senior Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights.

Section 7.    Protective Provisions. For so long as any Senior Preferred Stock is outstanding or any Person shall have any obligation to purchase Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Corporation shall not (and, to the extent such restriction applies to any Subsidiary, shall not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries to) effect any of the following without the prior consent of the Required Holders, voting or consenting, as the case may be, as one class, in person or by proxy, either in writing or by resolution adopted at an annual or special meeting (and any such act or transaction entered into without such consent and approval shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect):

(iv)any direct or indirect Transfer by the Corporation’s Controlling Stockholders of Common Stock of the Corporation unless such Transfer complies with Section 2 of the Transfer Restriction and Voting Agreement, dated as of April 27, 2021, among the Controlling Stockholders and the Investors parties thereto;

(vi)any action for which a separate vote of the Holders is required by applicable law;

(vii)any action by the Corporation directly or indirectly for the purpose of causing the Common Stock to no longer be listed on any of the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the New York Stock Exchange, or any failure by the Corporation to take any commercially reasonable step or steps within its reasonable control in order to prevent the Common Stock from no longer being so listed;

(viii)any action that would cause the Corporation to cease to be treated as a domestic C corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

(ix)the authorization, creation, classification or reclassification, increase in the number of authorized or issued shares, or issuance of, any preferred stock of any Subsidiary of the Corporation, unless such preferred stock is held by the Corporation or a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Corporation, in each case, other than the issuance of preferred stock by an Unrestricted Subsidiary to one or more Persons in connection with an Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary permitted by clause (xiii)(11) below;

(a)The increase in the dividend rate provided for in the definition of “Default Rate Increase” and the exercise of the rights set forth in Section 10, in each case, shall not be the exclusive remedy at law or in equity of the Holders for any Preferred Default and shall in no way be deemed a waiver of such Preferred Default or be deemed to validate any action underlying any such Preferred Default.

(ii)On and after April 27, 2023, the Corporation may redeem the outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, for cash at the prices (expressed as percentages of the sum of (x) outstanding Liquidation Preference plus (y) any accrued and unpaid Dividends on the shares of Senior Preferred Stock redeemed, through and including the applicable redemption date) indicated below, if redeemed during the applicable period indicated below:

Period     Percentage

On and after April 27, 2023 and to, but not

including, April 27, 2024……………………………………………….     102.00%

On and after April 27, 2024      100.00%

In the event that at any time fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, (x) the selection of the shares to be redeemed shall be made pro rata in proportion to the number of shares held by each Holder, (y) the minimum amount of Liquidation Preference of shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be at least $25,000,000 and (z) after giving effect to the redemption at least $75,000,000 in Liquidation Preference of Senior Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding.

(b)Mandatory Redemption Upon Change of Control or Liquidation Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or a Liquidation Event, the Corporation shall redeem all then outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock for cash at the Redemption Price set forth in Section 9(a)(i) or 9(a)(ii), as applicable, above corresponding to the timing of the occurrence of such Change of Control or Liquidation Event. If applicable law does not permit the Corporation to consummate the redemption described in this Section 9(b) in connection with a Change of Control or Liquidation Event, the Corporation shall not consummate the Change of Control or Liquidation Event unless at the closing thereof all then outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock are purchased from the Holders (by an affiliate of the Corporation or a third party) for cash at the Redemption Price set forth in Section 9(a)(i) or 9(a)(ii), as applicable, above corresponding to the timing of the occurrence of such Change of Control or Liquidation Event (such mandatory redemption or purchase described in this Section 9(b), as applicable, a “Mandatory Redemption”).

(c)Notice of Redemption. The Corporation shall provide notice of any redemption pursuant to this Section 9 at least three (3) days but not more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, to each Holder of record of shares of Senior Preferred Stock to be redeemed at such Holder’s address appearing on the stock register of the Corporation. Each such notice shall state (i) the date fixed for such redemption, (ii) the place or places where certificates (if the shares are certificated) for the shares of Senior Preferred Stock called for redemption are to be surrendered for payment, (iii) the Redemption Price, (iv) that unless the Corporation defaults in making the redemption payment, Dividends on the shares of Senior Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue on and after the redemption date, (v) that if fewer than all of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock owned by such Holder are then to be redeemed, the number of shares or aggregate Liquidation Preference of which are to be redeemed, and (vi) if such notice of redemption is subject to one or more conditions, a description of such conditions.

If the notice of redemption shall have been so given and if prior to the date of redemption specified in such notice all funds necessary to pay the aggregate Redemption Price for such redemption shall have been irrevocably deposited in trust, for the account of the Holders of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock to be redeemed, with a bank, trustee or trust company named in such notice doing business in New York, New York, and having capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000, then, without awaiting the redemption date, all shares of Senior Preferred Stock with respect to which such notice shall have been so given and such deposit shall have been so made thereupon shall, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, be deemed no longer to be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares of Senior Preferred Stock forthwith upon such deposit in trust shall cease and terminate, except for the right of the Holders thereof on or after the redemption date to receive out of such deposit the applicable Redemption Price, without interest. If the Holders of any shares of Senior Preferred Stock which have been called for redemption shall not within two (2) years (or any longer period required by law) after the applicable redemption date claim any amount so deposited in trust for the redemption of such shares, then such bank or trust company shall, if permitted by applicable law, pay over to the Corporation any such unclaimed amount so deposited with it and thereupon shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof; and thereafter the Holders of such shares shall, subject to applicable unclaimed property laws, look only to the Corporation for payment of the Redemption Price for such shares, without interest. Upon surrender, in accordance with such notice, of the certificates for any shares so redeemed, the applicable Redemption Price shall be paid in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by such Holder. In the event that less than all of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate representing the unredeemed shares shall be promptly issued to the Holder thereof without cost to such Holder.

If a redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of the Liquidation Preference and the aggregate accrued and unpaid Dividends payable on that date will be made on the next

succeeding day which is a Business Day, and no Dividends will accrue or other payment made in respect of such delay.

Section 10.    Forced Sale Trigger. From and after the earliest of (i) October 27, 2028, (ii) 30 days after written notice from the Holders to the Corporation of a breach of Section 7(vii) hereof, which breach is not cured within such 30 day period, and (iii) the date that is 90 days following the Corporation’s failure to consummate when due a Mandatory Redemption of the Senior Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or Liquidation Event (whether or not there are any profits, surplus or other funds legally available for the payment thereof or such payment is then permitted by applicable law or any instrument or agreement to which the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries is a party) (such earliest date, the “Sale Trigger Date”), the Required Holders may deliver to the Corporation a written notice (a “Sale Demand”) requesting that the Corporation commence a process diligently and in good faith to seek to effect a Sale Event (a “Sale Process” and, the transaction resulting therefrom, a “Sale Transaction”). Upon receipt of a Sale Demand, the Corporation shall promptly engage in a Sale Process in good faith, including selecting a nationally recognized investment banking firm having experience in the industry in which the Corporation and its Subsidiaries are engaged and reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders to assist the Corporation in the Sale Process on engagement terms reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders. If the Corporation fails to promptly engage in such a Sale Process, fails to conduct such a Sale Process in good faith, fails to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Sale Transaction within six (6) months of the Sale Demand or fails to consummate a Sale Transaction within twelve (12) months of the Sale Demand, then any such failure shall constitute a Preferred Event of Default and shall further constitute a “Sale Demand Default Event” and, by written notice (which notice may be given more than once) to the Corporation from the Required Holders:

(a)at the election of the Required Holders either (x) the number of directors constituting the Board shall be increased by two members and the Required Holders, voting separately and as one class, shall have the exclusive right to nominate and elect each such director to serve on the Board (each, a “Sale Demand Director” and, collectively, the “Sale Demand Directors”) at a meeting called therefor upon the occurrence of such Sale Demand Default Event and at every subsequent meeting at which the terms of office of the director so elected by the Required Holders expires and/or (y) the number of directors constituting the Board shall be increased by the number necessary to permit the Required Holders, voting separately and as one class, to nominate and elect that number of directors constituting a majority of the Board and the Required Holders shall have the exclusive right to nominate and elect such directors to serve on the Board (the “Majority Directors”) at a meeting called therefor upon the occurrence of such Sale Demand Default Event and at every subsequent meeting at which the terms of office of the director so elected by the Required Holders expires; and

(b)    the Corporation shall take all corporate action necessary and shall fully cooperate with the Holders to cause each Sale Demand Director and/or the Majority Directors, as applicable, to be nominated and reelected to the Board.

The right of the Holders voting together as a separate class to elect one or more members of the Board as set forth in this Section 10 above shall continue unless and until there is no Senior Preferred Stock outstanding. At any time after voting power to elect a director shall have become vested and be continuing in the Holders pursuant to this Section 10, or if vacancies shall exist in the offices of any director elected by the Holders, a proper officer of the Corporation may, and upon the written request of any Holder then outstanding addressed to the secretary of the Corporation shall, call a special meeting of the Holders, for the purpose of electing the director which such Holders are entitled to elect, in each case subject to applicable law. If such meeting shall not be called by a proper officer of the Corporation within fifteen (15) days after personal service of said written request upon the secretary of the Corporation, or within thirty (30) days after mailing the same within the United States of America by certified mail, addressed to the secretary of the Corporation at its principal executive offices, then any Holder may

designate in writing one Holder to call such meeting at the expense of the Corporation, and such meeting may be called by the Holder so designated upon notice to the other Holders and shall be held at the place designated by such Holder. Any Holder so designated shall have, and the Corporation shall provide, access to the lists of stockholders to be called pursuant to the provisions hereof. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing directors at which the Holders shall have the right, voting together as a separate class, to elect one or more directors as aforesaid, the presence in person or by proxy of the Required Holders shall be required to constitute a quorum of the Holders. Any vacancy occurring in the office of a director elected by the Holders may be filled solely by the Holders in accordance with this Section 10.

The Board hereby designates, effective from the occurrence of a Sale Demand Default Event until consummation of a Sale Transaction, a special committee (the “Sale Demand Special Committee”) to consist solely of the Sale Demand Directors or one or more Majority Directors designated by the Required Holders; provided that for so long as TCP shall continue to be the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation and a member of the Board, TCP, or an independent director of the Board designated by him, shall be entitled to participate as a member of the Sale Demand Special Committee. At all times following the occurrence of a Sale Demand Default Event and until consummation of a Sale Transaction, the Sale Demand Special Committee shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board with respect to any act, decision or determination relating to or in furtherance of the consummation of a Sale Transaction (including, without limitation, the authority to exclusively initiate, investigate, negotiate, implement, direct, control, review, communicate, act upon and approve any and all matters in furtherance of a Sale Transaction); provided that the Sale Demand Special Committee shall not have the power or authority to (a) approve or adopt any action or matter expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to the stockholders for approval or (b) adopt, amend or repeal any by-law of the Corporation. The Sale Demand Special Committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board when required. The Sale Demand Directors or the Majority Directors, as applicable, shall have full power and authority to retain on behalf of the Sale Demand Special Committee and/or the Corporation, such legal counsel and financial, accounting, tax or other advisors as the Sale Demand Directors or Majority Directors, as applicable, deem necessary or advisable in connection with any Sale Transaction (collectively, “Sale Demand Advisors”). The Corporation shall fully cooperate (and shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ officers and employees to fully cooperate) with the Sale Demand Special Committee in connection with any and all actions, decisions and determinations taken by the Sale Demand Special Committee in furtherance of a Sale Transaction and otherwise in accordance with this Section 10.

The Corporation shall (i) reimburse each member of the Sale Demand Special Committee for all reasonable travel and other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses related to such member’s role or performance of duties contemplated by this Certificate of Designations, (ii) enter into an indemnification agreement with each Sale Demand Director and Majority Director no less favorable to such Director than the indemnification agreements then in effect between the Corporation and any other non-employee member of the Board and (iii) upon election to the Board cause each such Sale Demand Director and Majority Director to be included in all directors and officers liability insurance policies and endorsements.

The Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Corporation and its Subsidiaries’ management to cooperate fully with (and not to impede) any such Sale Process and take such other actions as are reasonably required for the Corporation to comply with its obligations under this Section 10 with respect to any such Sale Process.

Section 11.    Written Consent. Any action as to which a class vote of the Holders is required pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations or the DGCL may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so

taken, shall be signed by Holders having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of Senior Preferred Stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation. The Corporation will provide to each Holder a copy of or notice of each such proposed written consent not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of effectiveness of such written consent (or will provide such copy or notice a shorter period in advance as is practicable if five (5) Business Days’ notice is not practicable), and promptly following the effectiveness of any action taken by written consent, will give written notice of such action to each Holder; provided, however, that failure to give any notice as required by this sentence shall not impair or affect the validity of such consent or action.

Section 12.    Transfer Restrictions. The shares of Senior Preferred Stock owned by any Holder shall be freely transferable upon no less than five days’ prior written notice to the Corporation (except no such notice shall be required in the case of any such transfer to any other Holder or Affiliate of a Holder), subject to compliance with applicable securities laws; provided that, to the extent that the list of Disqualified Institutions (the “DQ List”) is made available to all Holders or potential transferees, no transfer shall be made to any Person which is a Disqualified Institution; provided, further, that such restriction in the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply (x) during the occurrence and continuance of a Preferred Event of Default or a Bankruptcy Event and (y) from and after the Sale Trigger Date or the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event. The Corporation hereby agrees to provide the DQ List to any Holder or potential transferee of the Senior Preferred Stock upon request and expressly authorizes the Holders to provide the DQ List to any potential transferee.

When the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment (other than as described in Section 4(c) or Section 9(c)) or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day and such extension shall be reflected in the computation of Dividends or fees, as the case may be.

(g)    Pro Forma Calculations.

    (i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Preferred Net Leverage Ratio and compliance with covenants determined by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 18(g); provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of this Section 18(g), when calculating any such ratio or test for purposes of the incurrence of any Indebtedness, Cash and Cash Equivalents resulting from the incurrence of any such Indebtedness shall be excluded from the pro forma calculation of any applicable ratio or test (including compliance with covenants defined by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA). In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, the reference to the “Test Period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered to the Holders pursuant to Section 13(a)(ii) or (iii), as applicable, for the relevant Test Period.

    (ii)    For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test or compliance with any covenant determined by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, any Specified Transactions (with any incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith to be subject to clause (iv) of this Section 18(g)) that have been consummated (x) during the applicable Test Period or (y) if applicable as described in clause (i) above, subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had

occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Corporation or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 18(g), then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated to give Pro Forma Effect thereto in accordance with this Section 18(g).

    (iii)    Whenever Pro Forma Effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by an Authorized Officer of the Corporation and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and initiatives and synergies resulting from or relating to any Specified Transaction (including the Transactions), in a manner permitted under and without duplication with clause (i)(r) of the definition of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.

    (iv)    In the event that the Corporation or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility (for ordinary course working capital draws and repayments) unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and not replaced), (A) during the applicable Test Period or (B) subject to clause (i) above, subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving Pro Forma Effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, in each case to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period.

    (v)    [Reserved].

    (vi)    In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(A)    determining compliance with any provision of this Certificate of Designations which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the Total Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Preferred Net Leverage Ratio; or

(B)    testing availability under baskets set forth in this Certificate of Designations (including baskets determined by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and baskets subject to Preferred Default, Preferred Event of Default and Bankruptcy Event conditions),

in each case, at the option of the Corporation (the Corporation’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder (or any requirement, representation or warranty or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any continuing Preferred Default, Preferred Event of Default or Bankruptcy Event (other than with respect to a condition that no Preferred Payment Default and no Bankruptcy Event has occurred and is continuing, which shall be tested on the date of the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction)) shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Limited Condition Transaction (and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith), the Corporation or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such

ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Corporation has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would have failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of the Corporation or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations. If the Corporation has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, the making of Restricted Payments, the making of any Investment, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary (each, a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or (y) the date that the definitive agreement is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Certificate of Designations, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis (i) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (ii) in the case of any Restricted Payment, assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated.

(h)    Currency Generally. For purposes of calculating the Total Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Preferred Net Leverage Ratio on any date of determination, amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars will be translated into Dollars at the currency exchange rates used in the latest financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 13(a)(ii) or (iii), and will, in the case of Indebtedness, reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of Interest Rate Agreements for currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination of the amount in Dollars of such Indebtedness.

(i)    Divisions. For all purposes under the Preferred Equity Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized (and, if applicable, treated as a newly formed or acquired Restricted Subsidiary) on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Capital Stock at such time; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Corporation enter into any such division or plan of division transaction.

(j)    Certain Determinations.

(i)    For purposes of determining compliance with any of the covenants set forth in Section 7 or Section 13 at any time (whether at the time of incurrence or thereafter), if any Investment, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction meets the criteria of one, or more than one, of the clauses of the provision permitting such Investment,

Asset Sale, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction as the case may be, the Corporation (x) shall in its sole discretion determine under which clause or clauses such Investment, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction (or, in each case, any portion thereof), as the case may be, is classified and (y) shall be permitted in its sole discretion to make any subsequent re-determination and/or at a later time divide, classify or reclassify under which clause or clauses such Investment, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction as the case may be, is permitted from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided herein, if the applicable date for meeting any requirement hereunder or under any other Preferred Equity Document falls on a day that is not a Business Day, compliance with such requirement shall not be required until noon on the first Business Day following such applicable date.

(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Certificate of Designations that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, Total Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Preferred Net Leverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) intended to be utilized with or substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Certificate of Designations that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence.

(iii)    If any baskets set forth in Section 7 are exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent Test Period after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose under Section 7, such baskets will be deemed not to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations.

Section 19.    Share Certificates; Legends.

(a)If any certificates representing shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation shall issue, in exchange and in substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a new certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such certificate and indemnity by the Holder thereof, if requested, reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation.

(b)Each certificate representing shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall contain a legend substantially to the following effect (in addition to any legends required under applicable securities laws):

THIS SECURITY HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND WITHOUT A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION AND IN A TRANSACTION THAT WAS NOT REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS SECURITY OR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION THEREIN MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS AND (B)(1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES

ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND, IN THE CASE OF CLAUSE (B)(2), PROVIDED THAT THE CORPORATION, IF IT SO REQUESTS, RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

If any shares of Senior Preferred Stock are not represented by certificates, an appropriate notation shall be made in book entry in the share registry with respect to such shares to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

Section 20.    Miscellaneous. For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, the following provisions shall apply:

(a)Status of Cancelled Shares. Shares of Senior Preferred Stock that have been redeemed, repurchased or otherwise cancelled shall be retired and, following the filing of any certificate required by the DGCL, have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Senior Preferred Stock, without designation as to series, until such shares are once more designated by the Board as part of a particular series of Senior Preferred Stock of the Corporation.

(b)Severability. If any right, preference or limitation of the Senior Preferred Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designations is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other rights, preferences and limitations set forth in this Certificate of Designations which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable right, preference or limitation shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no right, preference or limitation herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other such right, preference or limitation unless so expressed herein.

(c)Headings. The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.

(d)Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Certificate of Designations or by applicable law, all notices, requests, demands, and other communications shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, delivered by facsimile, email or courier service, or mailed, certified with first class postage prepaid, to the address set forth on the books of the Corporation, in the case of communications to a stockholder, and to the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Delaware with a copy to the chief executive offices of the Corporation at 2001 Westside Parkway, Suite 155, Alpharetta, Georgia 30004, attention: General Counsel, for all communications to the Corporation. Each such notice, request, demand, or other communication shall be deemed to have been given and received (whether actually received or not) on the date of actual delivery thereof, if personally delivered or delivered by facsimile transmission or email (if receipt is confirmed at the time of such transmission by telephone or electronically), or on the third (3rd) day following the date of mailing, if mailed in accordance with this clause (d), or on the day specified for delivery to the courier service (if such day is one on which the courier service will give normal assurances that such specified delivery will be made). Any notice, request, demand, or other communication given otherwise than in accordance with this clause (d) shall be deemed to have been given on the date actually received. Any stockholder may change its address for purposes of this clause (d) by giving written notice of such change to the Corporation in the manner herein above provided. Whenever any notice is required to be given by law or by this Certificate of Designations, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of notice.

(e)Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Certificate of Designations to Sections, paragraphs, clauses or similar subdivisions, such reference shall be to a Section, paragraph, clause or subdivision to or of this Certificate of Designations unless otherwise indicated. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(f)Certain Tax Matters.

(i)All payments, dividends and distributions on the Senior Preferred Stock shall be subject to withholding and backup withholding of tax to the extent required by law, and amounts withheld, if any, shall be treated as received by the Holders in respect of which such amounts were withheld. The Senior Preferred Stock shall be treated as equity for tax purposes.

(ii)If, at any time during which any Senior Preferred Stock remains outstanding, it is reasonably expected that the Corporation will or has become a “United States real property holding corporation” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 897(c)(2), the Corporation shall notify each Holder in writing of such change in tax status within a reasonable period of time.

(iii)If the Corporation makes any cash distribution to Holders or if there is any deemed distribution to Holders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Corporation shall provide each Holder, no later than 30 days after the date of such cash or deemed distribution, with a reasonable estimate of the portion of such distribution that will be considered a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided that if such estimate is not available at such time, the Corporation shall provide such estimate as soon as reasonably practicable and, in all events, no later than 60 days after the end of the taxable year in which such distribution occurs.

(g)Amendment. Subject to Section 7(iii) and Section 16, (i) no provision of this Certificate of Designations may be amended, including pursuant to or as a result of a merger, consolidation or business combination, except in a written instrument signed by the Corporation and the Required Holders and (ii) any of the rights of the Holders set forth herein may be waived by a vote or written consent of the Required Holders. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Certificate of Designations shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

(h)Equity; No Collateral Protection. The Senior Preferred Stock is equity and has no collateral protection or security.

(i)Holder Representative. The Holder Representative does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (x) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Three-Month Term SOFR Reference Rate, Three-Month Term SOFR or Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Three-Month Term SOFR Reference Rate, Three-Month Term SOFR, Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (y) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Holder Representative

and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Three-Month Term SOFR Reference Rate, Three-Month Term SOFR, Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Corporation. The Holder Representative may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain Three-Month Term SOFR Reference Rate, Three-Month Term SOFR, Adjusted Three-Month Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations, and shall have no liability to the Corporation, any Holder or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Holder Representative shall be under no obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of the Three-Month Term SOFR (or other applicable Benchmark), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event or Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any alternative reference rate or Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what Conforming Changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing. The Holder Representative shall not be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Certificate of Designations as a result of the unavailability of the Three-Month Term SOFR (or other applicable Benchmark) and absence of a designated replacement Benchmark, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party, including, without limitation the Corporation, in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated in this Certificate of Designations and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. The Holder Representative shall have no liability for any rate published by the Term SOFR Administrator or any publication that is the source for determining the Dividend Rate or for any rates compiled by the Term SOFR Administrator or any successor thereto, or for any rates published on any publicly available source, including, without limitation, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s website, or in any of the foregoing cases for any delay, error or inaccuracy in the publication of any such rates, or for any subsequent correction or adjustment thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations to be executed by a duly authorized officer of the Corporation as of the date first set forth above.
