Your principal office will be located at the Company’s principal executive offices. You will be required to travel as reasonably necessary to properly fulfill your employment duties and responsibilities.

You will devote all of your business time, energy, business judgment, knowledge and skill and your best efforts to the performance of your duties with the Company, provided that the foregoing shall not prevent you from (a) serving as a director of a public or private company subject to the Company's conflict of interest policy; (b) participating in charitable, civic, educational, professional, community or industry affairs; and (c) managing your passive investments so long as, in the reasonable discretion of the CEO, the activities described in clauses (a) - (c), individually or in the aggregate, do not interfere or conflict with your duties and responsibilities to the Company or create a potential business or fiduciary conflict.

1.Base Salary. Your annual base salary is $450,000, less any applicable tax withholding and deductions as required or permitted by law, for your full-time efforts and will be paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. Your base salary will be subject to review by the Compensation Committee of the Board and/or the CEO from time to time, but no less than annually, and may be adjusted from time to time by the Compensation Committee.

2.Incentive Compensation. You are eligible to participate, at the discretion of the Company’s Board (or Committee thereof, together with the Board, the “Committee”), in the Company’s incentive compensation programs as in effect from time to time for certain of the Company’s officers and employees as follows:

(a)Equity Compensation (“LTI”). Beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 (“FY 2026”) and for subsequent fiscal years while you continue to serve as CFO of the Company, you will participate in the Company’s long-term incentive program for certain officers and employees, as in effect from time to time, and receive periodic equity or equity-based awards (“LTI Awards”) as determined by the Committee. LTI Award(s) will be granted under and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated PAR Technology Corporation 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (as the same may be amended and restated from time to time, or its successor (“Plan”)) and in accordance

with the Company’s Equity Grant Policy (as the same may be amended and restated from time to time, or its successor), and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s LTI program and award agreement(s) then in effect, including vesting requirements and the Committee’s certification as to the achievement of performance targets for the applicable performance period.

The grant date value of your FY 2026 LTI Award is $1,800,000 and shall be subject to the achievement of performance targets established by the Committee for the applicable performance period, and the Committee’s certification thereof. The Committee will establish the amount, form, and performance targets (if any) for LTI Awards in subsequent fiscal years.

(b)Incentive Cash Compensation (“STI”). Beginning with FY 2026 and for subsequent fiscal years while you continue to serve as CFO of the Company, you will participate in the Company’s short-term incentive plan as in effect from time to time for certain officers and employees (“STI Plan”). Pursuant to the STI Plan you will have the opportunity to earn, on an annual basis, a cash bonus subject to the achievement of performance targets established by the Committee for the applicable performance period. Your annual STI bonus target for FY 2026 is 65% of your earned base salary in FY 2026. Annual STI bonus targets and associated payments, if any, for subsequent fiscal years will be established by the Committee. Any annual STI bonus earned for a completed fiscal year will be paid in the immediately following fiscal year at the same time annual STI bonuses are paid to other officers and employees of the Company, subject to your continued employment with the Company through the date of payment. All STI bonus payments, if any, are subject to the Committee’s certification as to the satisfaction of the performance targets for the applicable performance period.

3.Change of Control. Upon the consummation of a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan) unvested performance-vesting equity awards granted to you, including unvested performance RSUs, restricted stock, and stock options, shall convert to Unvested Time-Vesting Equity (as defined in Section 5) based on actual performance achievement as calculated immediately prior to the effective date of the Change of Control and shall vest, subject to termination of your employment without Cause or for Good Reason during a Change of Control Protection Period as contemplated by Section 5 and subject to the provisions of Section 5, consistent with the original vesting schedule of the converted unvested performance-vesting equity awards (e.g., 3 years), but based solely on continued employment.

4.Benefits. Subject to satisfaction of any applicable eligibility requirements, you will continue to be eligible to participate in any employee benefit plan that the Company has adopted or may adopt, maintain, or contribute to, for the benefit of its employees, which includes health insurance and participation in the PAR Technology Corporation Retirement Plan (401(k)). You will participate in the Company’s flexible time-off policy. You will be reimbursed for reasonable travel and other expenses incurred by you in the course of performing your duties and responsibilities as CFO in accordance with the Company’s travel reimbursement policy. The Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate any of its benefit plans, policies, or programs at any time and for any reason.

5.Termination Without Cause & Termination for Good Reason during a Change of Control Protection Period. If both (i) your employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause (as herein defined) (but not including due to death or disability) or terminated by you for Good Reason (as herein defined), subject to the Company’s right to cure and (ii) such termination occurs during a Change of Control Protection Period (as herein defined), then, subject to the satisfaction of Section 6, the Company will pay you:

4.your unvested time-vesting equity awards granted to you, including unvested RSUs, restricted stock, and stock options (collectively, “Unvested Time-Vesting Equity”) shall become 100% vested; and, in the case of the vested portion of any such stock options, such vested portion may be exercised at any time within three (3) months following the termination date of your employment; and

5.the amount of all premiums for continued coverage under any group health plan maintained by the Company in which you and any dependents participated at the time of your termination for up to the end of the eighteenth (18th) full calendar month following your termination of employment, provided that you timely elect to receive continuation coverage under Section 4980B of the Code.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, to the extent that, upon a Change of Control, any of the payments and benefits provided for under the Plan or any other agreement or arrangement between the Company and you (collectively, the “Payments”) would constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (a “Parachute Payment”), as determined by an independent accountant or tax advisor (“Independent Tax Advisor”) selected by the Company, then, if and solely to the extent that reducing the benefits payable hereunder would result in you receiving a greater amount, on an after-tax basis, taking into account any excise taxes payable under Section 4999 of the Code and all applicable income, employment and other taxes payable on such amounts, the amounts payable hereunder shall be reduced or eliminated, as the case may be, so that the total amount of Parachute Payments received by you do not exceed the amount that would result in no portion of the Payments being treated as an excess parachute payment pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. Any reduction in the amount of compensation or benefits effected pursuant to this paragraph shall first come, in order and, in each case, solely to the extent necessary, from any cash severance benefits payable to you, then from any other payments which are treated in their entirety as Parachute Payments and then from any other Parachute Payments payable to you, as determined by the Independent Tax Advisor.

(i)“Cause” shall mean: (A) your willful refusal or material failure to perform your job duties and responsibilities (other than by reason of your serious physical or mental illness, injury, or medical condition); (B) your willful refusal or failure to comply in any material respect with (1) the Company’s policies; or (2) lawful directives of the CEO and/or the Board of the Company; (C) your material breach of any contract or agreement between you and the Company (including but not limited to this Letter and any incentive equity or restrictive covenants agreement(s) (or similar agreement between you and the Company, including the NDA); (D) your material breach of any statutory duty, fiduciary duty or any other obligation that you owe to the Company; (E) your commission of an act of fraud, theft, embezzlement, or other unlawful act against the Company or involving its property or assets (including its products); (F) your violation of Federal or state securities laws; (G) your engaging in unprofessional, unethical or other acts that materially discredit the Company or are materially detrimental to the reputation, character or good standing of the Company, its property or assets (including its products); and (H) your indictment or conviction or plea of nolo contendere or guilty plea with respect to any felony or crime of moral turpitude. In the event the CEO determines to terminate your employment for Cause, you shall be given written notice of such determination and a period of 30 days following your receipt of such notice to cure such

have not consented, which are not substantially cured by the Company within 30 days following written notification from you to the Company as required below: (A) the diminution (other than temporarily while physically or mentally incapacitated or as required by applicable law) in your duties, authorities or responsibilities that is inconsistent with your position, excluding immaterial diminutions not taken in bad faith; or (B) the Company's breach of its material obligations to you under this Letter. You will provide the Company with a written notice detailing the specific circumstances alleged to constitute Good Reason within 30 days after you first know, or with the exercise of reasonable diligence would have known, of the occurrence of such circumstances, and you must actually terminate your employment within 30 days following the expiration of the Company's cure period as set forth above if the Company has failed to substantially cure the alleged breach. Otherwise, any claim of such circumstances as Good Reason shall be deemed irrevocably waived by you.

6.Conditions to Receipt of Separation Payments or Benefits. The Company’s payment or provision of benefits under Section 5 is subject to the Company’s receipt of your fully executed and effective Release (in accordance with Section 7) and your continued compliance with the NDA and any additional post-employment covenants set forth in this Letter and/or in the Release. To the extent that any amounts payable under Section 5 constitute "non-qualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, any such payment scheduled to occur during the first 6 months following such termination shall not be paid until the expiration of 6 months following such termination and shall include payment of any amount that was otherwise scheduled to be paid prior thereto.

7.Release. Any and all amounts payable and benefits or additional rights provided pursuant to this Letter in connection with the termination of your employment shall only be payable or provided if you deliver a fully executed and effective release of claims in favor of the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company (“Release”).
