Dear Stockholder:

On behalf


The board of the Boarddirectors and officers of Directors of M I Acquisitions,Priority Technology Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “we”), I invitejoin me in extending to you a cordial invitation to attend our 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).  We hope you can join us.Stockholders. The Annual Meeting will be held:

At:The offices of Loeb & Loeb LLP, 345 Park Ave, New York, New York 10154
On:June 15, 2018
Time:10 a.m. local time

Theheld on Wednesday, May 22, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.


Stockholders will be able to attend, vote and submit questions (both before, and for a portion of, the meeting) from any location via the Internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PRTH2024. If you plan to participate in the virtual meeting, please see “Proxy Statement Q&A.”

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to vote on three proposals set forth in the Notice of 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the Proxy Statement and the proxy card accompanyfollowing this letter and are also available, together with our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, at http://www.astproxyportal.com/ast/21002/. We are first mailing these materials to our stockholders on or about June 1, 2018.

As discussed in the enclosed Proxy Statement, the Annual Meeting will be devoted to (i) the election of certain directors (ii) a proposal to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “extension”) for an additional 90 days, from June 19, 2018 to September 17, 2018 (the “Extended Termination Date”), (iii) a proposal to amend (the “Trust Amendment”) the Company’s investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of September 13, 2016, by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “trustee”) to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account (“trust account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) in the event the Company has not consummated a business combination by the Extended Termination Date, (iv) to ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018 (the “Auditor Proposal”) and (v) consideration of any other business matters properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

The purpose of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment is to allow the Company more time to complete its proposed business combination (the “Transaction”) pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement, dated as of April 17, 2018 (as it may be amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Priority Investment Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“PIH”), Priority Incentive Equity Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (PIEH, and together with PIH, the “Sellers”). The Company’s IPO prospectus and charter provide that the Company initially had until March 19, 2018 to complete its initial business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company has extended the date by which it must complete its initial business combination to May 19, 2018 and anticipates further extending it to June 19, 2018 (the “Current Termination Date”). Following the completion of our IPO in September 2016, our representatives engaged in extensive discussions with investment bankers and business owners with respect to potential business combination opportunities. As a result, our board of directors has determined that it is in the best interests of our stockholders to extend the Current Termination Date to the Extended Termination Date and provide that the date for cessation of operations of the Company if the Company has not completed a business combination would similarly be extended to the Extended Termination Date (the “Extension”). While we have entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Sellers and have filed a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in respect of the Transaction, our board currently believes that there will not be sufficient time before the Current Termination Date to hold an annual meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder approval of the Transaction and consummate the closing of the Transaction. Accordingly, our board of directors believes that in order to be able to consummate the Transaction, we will need to obtain the Extension.

Voting Procedures

participate.

What are my voting rights?
Each share of our common stock that you own in your name entitles youis entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to stockholders at the Annual Meeting.
Can I ask questions at the Virtual Annual Meeting?
Stockholders as of our record date who attend and participate in our virtual Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PRTH2024 will have an opportunity to submit questions live via the Internet during a designated portion of the proposals formeeting. These stockholders may also submit a question in advance of the annual meeting. YourAnnual Meeting at www.proxyvote.com. In both cases, stockholders must have available their control number provided on their proxy card, showsvoting instruction form or Notice.
What is the difference between holding shares of common stock as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner "in street name"?
If your shares of common stock are registered directly in your name with the Company's transfer agent, Equniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered the stockholder of record for these shares of stock. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the persons listed on your proxy card or vote in person at the Annual Meeting.
If your shares of stock are held in a brokerage account or through another nominee, such as a trustee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares of stock held "in street name." These proxy materials are being forwarded to you together with a voting instruction card. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other nominee how to vote, and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Because you are a beneficial owner and not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of stock in person at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a proxy from the broker or other nominee that holds your shares of stock. Your broker or other nominee should have provided directions for you to instruct the broker, trustee, or nominee on how to vote your shares of stock.
What is a broker non-vote?
If you are a beneficial owner whose shares of stock are held "in street name" and you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, your shares of stock will not be voted on any proposal as to which the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote. This is called a "broker non-vote." Your broker has discretionary authority to vote only on Proposal Number Three (ratification of auditor appointment). Therefore, your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposal unless you
2

specifically instruct your broker how to vote your shares of stock by returning your completed and signed voting instruction card.
What constitutes a quorum?
A quorum is the minimum number of shares of our common stock that you own.

You can vote your shares in advance of the annual meeting by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the annual meeting. If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares of our common stock will be voted as recommended by our board of directors. Our board of directors recommends voting “FOR” each of the nominees named in this Proxy Statement, the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment and the Auditor Proposal.

You can attend the annual meeting and vote in person even if you have previously voted by submitting a proxy. You will be given a ballot when you arrive. However, if your shares of common stock are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you must get a proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way we can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares of common stock. 

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies is made by the Company. The expenses of solicitation of proxies will be paid by the Company. We may solicit proxies by mail, and the officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone and will receive no extra compensation from such activities.

Morrow Sodali LLC, a proxy solicitation firm that we have engaged to assist us in soliciting proxies, will be paid its customary fee of approximately $15,000 and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses.

The Company will reimburse brokerage houses and other nominees for their expenses incurred in sending proxies and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of shares held by them.

Conversion Rights

Pursuant to our currently existing charter, any holders of our public shares may demand that such shares be converted for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account, less taxes payable, calculated as of twotransact business days prior to the annual meeting. If you affirmatively vote for or against the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment, your request is properly made and the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are approved, these shares will cease to be outstanding and will represent only the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account which holds the proceeds of our IPO (calculated as of two business days prior to the annual meeting). For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the trust account of approximately $55,718,153 on May 15, 2018, the estimated per share conversion price would have been approximately $10.49.

In order to exercise your conversion rights, you must:

check the box on the proxy card to elect conversion;
affirmatively vote for or against both the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment;
submit a request in writing prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on June 13, 2018 (two business days before the annual meeting) that we convert your public shares for cash to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, at the address below, and include in the written request the number of shares for which you are exercising your conversion rights.

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC
6201 15th Avenue

Brooklyn, NY 11219
Attn: Relationship Management
E-mail: Admin42@astfinancial.com

and

deliver your public shares either physically or electronically through DTC to our transfer agent at least two business days before the annual meeting. Stockholders seeking to exercise their conversion rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is our understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, we do not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Stockholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their broker, bank or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically. If you do not submit a written request and deliver your public shares as described above, your shares will not be redeemed.

Any demand for conversion, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising conversion requests (and submitting shares to the transfer agent) and thereafter, with our consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment. If you delivered your shares for conversion to our transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your conversion rights, you may request that our transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the phone number or address listed above.

Prior to exercising conversion rights, stockholders should verify the market price of our common stock, as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their common stock in the public market than from exercising their conversion rights if the market price per share is higher than the conversion price. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your shares of our common stock in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the conversion price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in our common stock when you wish to sell your shares.

If you exercise your conversion rights, your shares of our common stock will cease to be outstanding immediately prior to the Annual Meeting (assuming the Charter Amendment and Trust Amendment are approved) and will only represent the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account. You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of the Company, if any. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly and timely request conversion.

If the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by June 19, 2018 (assuming we have extended the time we have to complete a business combination to such date under our current certificate of incorporation and subject to the requirements of law), we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public stockholders and our warrants to purchase common stock will expire worthless.

Holders of outstanding units must separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising conversion rights with respect to the public shares.

If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company with written instructions to separate such units into public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the public share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your conversion rights with respect to the public shares upon the separation of the public shares from the units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s deposit withdrawal at custodian (DWAC) system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your conversion rights with respect to the public shares upon the separation of the public shares from the units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your public shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your conversion rights.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees for Director

Our Board of Directors currently consists of five members. We have a classified Board of Directors, which is divided into three classes, each with terms expiring at different times. Because we did not have an annual meeting in 2017, we are holding an election for both Class I and Class II Directors at the Annual Meeting. The three classes are currently comprised of the following directors:

Class I consists of directors who are serving until the Annual Meeting (comprising Joshua Sason);

Class II consists of directors who are serving until the Annual Meeting (comprising Marc Manuel and Samuel Holdsworth); and

Class III consists directors who are serving until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2019 (comprising David Schulhof and Donald S. Ienner).

At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms will then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of an equal number of directors.

Information Regarding the Nominees

The term of the three Class I and Class II directors will expire on the date of the Annual Meeting. Mr. Sason, as a Class I Director, and Mr. Manuel and Mr. Holdsworth, as Class II Directors, are standing for re-electionPursuant to the Board of Directors.

We are not aware of any reason that any nominee will be unable or will decline to serve as a director. The term of office of each person elected as a Class I director atCompany's bylaws, the Meeting will continue until our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2020, and the term of office of each person elected as a Class II directorpresence at the Annual Meeting, will continue until our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2019, and until a successor has been elected and qualified. There are no arrangementsperson, by proxy, or understandings between any of our directors or executive officers and any other person pursuant to which he or she is or was to be selected as one of our directors or officers. There are no family relationships among directors or executive officersby remote communication, of the Company. Notwithstanding their election at the Annual Meeting, these directors are expected to be replaced if the Transaction closes, as specified in the preliminary proxy statement for the Transaction filed with the SEC on April 19, 2018.

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the three (3) nominees named above, each of whom is currently one of our directors. Each nominee has consented to be named as a nominee in this Proxy Statement and to continue to serve as a director if elected. If any nominee becomes unable or declines to serve as a director or if additional persons are nominated at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them in such a manner as will assure the election of as many of the nominees listed above as possible (or, if new nominees have been designated by the Board of Directors, in such a manner as to elect such nominees), and the specific nominees to be voted for will be determined by the proxy holders.

For purposes of the election of directors, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of all the above director-nominees.

PROPOSAL 2: THE CHARTER AMENDMENT

The proposed Charter Amendment would amend our existing charter to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) for an additional 90 days to September 17, 2018 (the “Extended Termination Date”). Initially, the Company had until March 19, 2018 to complete its initial business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company has extended the date by which it must complete its initial business combination to May 19, 2018 and anticipates further extending it to June 19, 2018 (the “Current Termination Date”). The complete text of the proposed amendment is attached to this proxy statement asAnnex A. All stockholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. Based on the amount in trust as of May 15, 2018, if more than 4,833,593 shares are elected to be redeemed at the Annual Meeting, we will not effect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting.

Reasons for the Proposed Charter Amendment

The Company is proposing to amend its charter to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from the Current Termination Date to the Extended Termination Date.

The proposed Transaction with the Sellers qualifies as a “business combination” under the Company’s charter, but the Company will not be able to complete the Transaction by the Current Termination Date. The Charter Amendment is essential to allow the Company more time to obtain approval for the Transaction at a special meeting of its stockholders and consummate the closing of the Transaction prior the Extended Termination Date. Approval of the Charter Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the Extension. The Company believes that given the Company’s expenditure of time, effort and money on the proposed Transaction, circumstances warrant providing public stockholders an opportunity to consider the proposed Transaction.

If the Charter Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination by the Current Termination Date, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants or rights which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

Approval of the amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock. If your shares are held in street name, your broker, bank, custodian, or other nominee holder cannot vote your shares on this proposal, unless you direct the holder howstock entitled to vote, by marking your proxy card.be voted will constitute a quorum. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be counted as shares of stock that are present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum. If a quorum is not present, the meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

What are my choices when casting a vote with respect to the election of the six nominated directors, and what vote is needed to elect the director nominees?
In voting on the election of the director nominees ("Proposal Number One"), stockholders may:
1.vote for any of the nominees;
2.vote against any of the nominees; or
3.abstain from voting on any of the nominees.
Pursuant to our bylaws, a nominee must receive a plurality of the votes cast with respect to that director's election by the shares present or represented by proxy at the failureAnnual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Charter Amendmentelection of directors. This means that the nominees who receive the most votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Charter Amendment.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the Charter Amendment.

PROPOSAL 3: THE TRUST AMENDMENT

The proposed Trust Amendment would amend our existing Trust Agreement to change the date by which the trustee must commence liquidating the trustbe elected to the Extended Termination Dateopen director positions. Votes to abstain on Proposal Number One and make other conforming amendments.

Based on the amount in trust as of May 15, 2018, if more than 4,833,593 shares are elected to be redeemed at the Annual Meeting, webroker non-votes will not effect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting.

Reasons for the Proposed Trust Amendment

The Trust Amendment is essential to allowing the Company more time to consummate the closingbe considered shares of the Transaction. Approval of the Trust Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the Extension.

If the Trust Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination by June 19, 2018, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

This process, which is controlledcommonly referred to as "householding," potentially provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. The Company and some brokers "household" proxy materials, delivering a single proxy statement and annual report to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy statement and annual report and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker if your shares of stock are held in a brokerage account, or the Company if you hold shares of stock registered directly in your name.

Family Relationships
Thomas Priore, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and John Priore, a non-employee Director, are brothers.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
In 2015, approximately three years after reaching a civil settlement with regulators on the matter, and without admitting or denying the allegations against him, Thomas Priore consented to the entry of an order by the SEC against him (the "SEC Order") relating to his prior involvement as the majority owner, President and Chief Investment Officer of a registered investment adviser, ICP Asset Management, LLC. Under the SEC Order, Mr. Priore agreed to be barred from associating with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer or transfer agent, and from participating in any offering involving a penny stock, for a total purchase priceminimum of $4,025,000,five years from us. These purchases took place on a private placement basis simultaneouslythe date of the SEC Order with the consummation ofright to apply to the IPO. Simultaneouslyapplicable regulatory body for reentry thereafter. The SEC Order does not, nor has it ever, prohibited Thomas Priore's involvement with the purchase of units resulting fromCompany, or his service as Chairman or Chief Executive Officer.
Other than the exercise ofabove, to our knowledge, during the over-allotment option by the underwriter, M SPAC LLC, M SPAC Holdings I LLC and M SPAC Holdings II LLC also purchased from us at a price of $10.00 per unit 18,607 private units.

In order to meet our working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, our insiders, officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummationpast ten years, none of our initialdirectors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business combination, without interest,of which such person was a general partner or at the lender’s discretion, up to $200,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of our business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Our stockholders have approved the issuance of the private units upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert such notesexecutive officer either at the time of the consummation of our initial business combination. If we do not complete a business combination, any outstanding loans from our insiders, officers and directorsbankruptcy or their affiliates, will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside our trust account, if any.

We extended the time to complete an initial business combination to April 19, 2018 by having deposited $132,753 into our trust accountwithin two years prior to such date,that time;

convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and further extendedother minor offenses);

the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not bear interest and are payable five business days after the date we complete a business combination.

A more detailed description of the promissory notes and the related transactions can be found in our Current Reports on Form 8-K dated March 14, 2018 and April 12, 2018.

The holders of our insider shares issued and outstanding on the date of the IPO, as well as the holders of the private units (and underlying securities) and any shares our insiders, officers, directorssubsequently reversed, suspended or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to us, will be entitled to registration rights pursuantvacated, relating to an agreementalleged violation of (a) any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; (b) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, be signed prior toa temporary or on the effective datepermanent injunction, order of the IPO.

The holders of a majority of the private unitslaw or shares issued in payment of working capital loans made to us can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurredregulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

Magna Management LLC, a company owned by our insiders, has agreed that, commencing on the date of the IPO through the earlier of our consummation of our initial business combination or our liquidation, it will make available to us certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative support, as we may require from time to time. We have agreed to pay Magna Management LLC $10,000 per month for these services (the “Administration Fee”). However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, we may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by our audit committee that we lack sufficient funds held outside the trust to pay actual or anticipated expensesself-regulatory organization (as defined in connection with our initial business combination. Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of our initial business combination. We believe that the fee charged by Magna Management LLC is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated person.

Other than the fees described above, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees or other similar compensation, will be paid to our insiders or any of the members of our management team, for services rendered to us prior to, or in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, such individuals will receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with activities on our behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses, performing business due diligence on suitable target businesses and business combinations as well as traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses to examine their operations. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the trust account and the interest income earned on the amounts held in the trust account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination.

After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, board, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation materials furnished to our stockholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a stockholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation. In this event, such compensation will be publicly disclosed at the time of its determination in a Current Report on Form 8-K, as required by the SEC.

All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority of our uninterested independent directors, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested independent directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $100,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

We also require each of our directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our insiders, officers or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm and the approval of a majority of our disinterested and independent directors (if we have any at that time) that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated stockholders from a financial point of view. Furthermore, in no event will our insiders, or any of the members of our management team be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

SECTION 16( a ) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a)3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, requires our officers, directors andas amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons who own more than ten percentassociated with a member.

Ethics.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board does not have a policy on whether or not

Currently, the rolespositions of theChairman and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman should be separate.  Instead,are held by one individual, Thomas Priore. Although no formal policy currently exists, the Company’s By-Laws provideBoard has determined that, at present, Mr. Priore is able to devote his time to both the directors may designate a Chairmandaily execution of the Board from among anyCompany's business strategies and to the long-term strategic direction of the directors.  Accordingly, the Board reserves the right to vest the responsibilities of the Chief Executive OfficerCompany and Chairmanhaving him serve in the same person or in two different individuals depending on what it believesboth roles is in the best interestinterests of our stockholders.
Our Board oversees the risk management activities designed and implemented by our management. Our Board executes its oversight responsibility both directly and through its committees. Our Board also considers specific risk topics, including risks associated with our strategic initiatives, business plans and capital structure. Our management, including our executive officers, is primarily responsible for managing the risks associated with operation and business of the Company.   The Board has not designated a Chairman because it believes that the small size of the Board allows effective communication among all members.  The Board believes that there is no single Board leadership structure that would be most effective in all circumstancescompany and therefore retains the authoritywill provide appropriate updates to modify this structure to best address the Company’s and the Board’s then current circumstances as and when appropriate.

The Company’s management is responsible for identifying, assessing and managing the material risks facing the business. The Board and, in particular, the Audit Committee are responsible for overseeing the Company’s processes for assessing and managing risk.  Each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with input as appropriate from other appropriate management members, report and provide relevant information directly to either the Board and/or the Audit Committee on various types of identified material financial, reputational, legal, operational, environmental and business risks to which the Company is or may be subject, as well as mitigation strategies for certain salient risks.  In accordance with NASDAQ Capital Market requirements and as set forth in its charter, the Audit Committee periodically reviews and discusses the Company’s business and financial risk management and risk assessment policies and procedures with senior management, the Company’s independent auditor.  The Audit Committee reports its risk assessment function to the Board.  The roles of the Board and the Audit Committee. Our Board delegates to the Audit Committee oversight of its risk management process, and our other committees also consider risk as they perform their respective committee responsibilities. All committees report to the Board as appropriate, including when a matter rises to the level of material or enterprise risk.

Per our securities trading policy, all covered persons, including all executive officers and directors, are prohibited from purchasing Company securities on margin or pledging Company securities as collateral.
Independence of Directors
As a result of our common stock being listed on the NASDAQ, Priority adheres to the rules of such exchange in determining whether a director is independent. A director is not independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that he or she does not have a relationship which, in the risk oversight process have not affected the Board leadership structure.  Although the board has not formally designated a lead independent director, Mr. Holdsworth has led the executive session of the independent directors.

The Board of Directors held seven meetings during the year ended December 31, 2017. During fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, no director attended fewer than 75% of the meetingsopinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of Directorsindependent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director in accordance with the NASDAQ corporate governance rules for listed companies. The Board has determined that a majority of our directors, specifically, Messrs, Crisafulli, Davis, Favilla, and Board committeesPassilla, are independent directors. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees
The Nominating and Governance Committee considers persons identified by its members, management, stockholders, investment bankers and others. The guidelines for selecting nominees, which the Nominating and Governance Committee will take into consideration, include, but are not limited to, providing those persons to be nominated:
should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;
should possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the Board and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and
should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interest of stockholders.
The Nominating and Governance Committee considers a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background, diversity of viewpoints, professional experience, education and skills, and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person's candidacy for membership on the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific Board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of Board members. Any shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate for consideration as a possible director nominee for election at an upcoming meeting of shareholders must provide timely, written notice to Bradley Miller, the Company's General Counsel, Chief Risk Officer, and Corporate Secretary, at the Company's address set forth in the 2024 Notice of Annual Meeting. The Nominating and Governance Committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by stockholders and other persons.
Stockholder and Interested Party Communications
Priority's Board does not provide a process for stockholders or other interested parties to send communications to the Board because management believed that it was premature to develop such processes given the limited liquidity of common stock at that time. However, management may establish a process for stockholder and interested party communications in the future.
Limitation on Directors' Liability
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will indemnify our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). The DGCL permits a corporation to limit or eliminate a director's personal liability to the corporation or the holders of its capital stock for breach of duty. This limitation is generally unavailable for acts or omissions by a director which (i) were in bad faith, (ii) were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated or (iii) involved a financial profit or other advantage to which such director was not legally entitled. The DGCL also prohibits limitations on director liability for acts or omissions which resulted in a member.

violation of a statute prohibiting certain dividend declarations, certain payments to stockholders after dissolution and particular types of loans. The effect of these provisions is to eliminate the rights of our Company and our stockholders (through stockholders' derivative suits on behalf of our Company) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director (including breaches

Establish and administer a periodic assessment procedure relating to the performance of the Board as a whole and its individual members.

PROPOSAL NUMBER TWO
APPROVAL OF ADVISORY VOTE ON NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

Under these programs, our NEOs are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term, and strategic goals, corporate goals, and the realization of increased stockholder value.
Highlights of our executive compensation program, as described in the Compensation of Executive Officers and Compensation of Directors section, include:
compensation programs that are performance-based and align executive officer incentives with stockholder interests over multiple timeframes;
annual incentives that are earned based on performance measured against specific financial and strategic objectives for an executive’s area of responsibility, together with a qualitative assessment of performance;
