We are paying the cost of registering the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus as well as various related expenses. We provide more information about how the selling stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of their shares of common stock in the section titled “Plan of Distribution” on page 15.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act, Section 27A of the Securities Act and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature, but rather are predictive of our future operations, financial condition, financial results, business strategies and prospects. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “belief,” “continue,” “could,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements contained herein and in the documents incorporated by reference, including forward-looking statements relating to and our expectations regarding the Merger and the anticipated benefits of the Merger and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the new Delta variant, on our business, operations and financial results. While we have taken and continue to take precautionary measures intended to minimize the impact of COVID-19 to our employees and to our business, there can be no assurances that these actions are sufficient and that additional actions will not be required. Factors that have adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect, and that could subsequently adversely impact, our business, operations and financial results due to the COVID-19 pandemic include: customer store closures; significant reductions or volatility in demand for our products and services; shortages of hardware materials and components, shipping delays and increased costs; canceled or delayed store implementations, decreased product adoptions and bookings; reduced or delayed software or hardware deployments and a reprioritization of investments in technology or point-of-sale infrastructure; delayed or payment defaults by customers; our ability to be agile in the execution of our business and strategies and our management of business continuity risks, including increased exposure to potential cybersecurity breaches and attacks, disruptions or delays in product assembly and fulfillment, and limitations on our selling and marketing efforts; our ability to successfully attract, hire and retain necessary qualified employees to develop and expand our business; and the possible impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets in the event of a significant decline in our financial performance. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact our business, operations, and financial results is uncertain and cannot be predicted, and there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material and adverse effect on our business, operations and financial results during any quarter or year in which we are affected. Other factors, risks, trends and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements contained herein and in the documents incorporated by reference are described in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as applicable, as well as our other filings with the SEC and the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities law.

You should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in any applicable prospectus supplement and any documents incorporated by reference herein or therein could substantially harm our business, operations, financial condition, financial results and prospects, and that if any of these events occur, it could adversely affect the value of an investment in our common stock. Market data and certain other statistical information used throughout this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein are based on independent industry publications, governmental publications, reports by market research firms or other independent sources. Some data are also based on our good faith estimates. Although we believe these third-party sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the information attributed to these third-party sources and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness. Similarly, our estimates have not been verified by any independent source.

You should read this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and the information incorporated by reference herein and therein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made and are not guarantees of future performance. Except as required by applicable securities law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

The following is a summary of our capital stock and provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), our bylaws, as amended (the “Bylaws”) and certain provisions of Delaware law. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. References in this section to “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to PAR Technology Corporation and not to its subsidiaries.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 59,000,000 shares of stock, consisting of 58,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.02 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.02 per share.

Common Stock

As of August 2, 2021, we had 25,857,858 shares of common stock outstanding.

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our directors are elected by a plurality, which means that at any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, the holders of a plurality of the common stock are able to elect all of the directors then standing for election. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of any of our funds legally available when, as and if declared by our board of directors. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preferences of any then outstanding preferred stock. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and the terms of our common stock contain no redemption or sinking fund provisions. The rights, preferences, and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate in the future.

Preferred Stock

As of August 2, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number, rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption, liquidation preference and sinking fund terms, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock.

The issuance of our preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control or other corporate action, or make the removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of decreasing the market price of the common stock.

Except as otherwise provided by Delaware Law or by any resolution adopted by our board of directors fixing the rights, preferences and privileges, the qualifications or restrictions of the preferred stock, the entire voting power of the shares of our capital stock for the election of directors and for all other purposes, as well as all other rights pertaining to shares of our capital stock vest exclusively in the common stock.

Registration Rights

In connection with the Merger, we paid former Punchh stockholders (including holders of vested options and warrants) in the aggregate approximately $390.0 million in cash and 1,594,202 shares of our common stock. At issuance, the shares of common stock comprising the Share Consideration were not registered under the Securities Act, or other applicable securities laws; however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we have agreed to register the shares for resale under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

12

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law, Our Certificate of Incorporation, as Amended and Our Bylaws, as Amended

Certain provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws could make the acquisition of the Company more difficult. These provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us. These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage certain types of coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and are designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate with our board of directors.

Stockholder meetings. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, only the board of directors, or the chairman of the board of directors or the president pursuant to a resolution approved by a majority of the then authorized number of directors of the Company may call special meetings of stockholders.

Requirements for advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals. Our Bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors.

Action by written consent. Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company must be effected at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, and no action required to be taken or that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company may be taken without a meeting except by the unanimous written consent of all stockholders entitled to vote on such action.

Election and removal of directors. Nominations for the election of directors may be made by the board of directors or a committee appointed by the board of directors, or by any stockholder entitled to vote generally in the election of directors who complies with the procedures set forth in our Bylaws. All directors (other than those who may be elected by the holders of any then outstanding preferred stock, voting as a separate class) shall be elected for a one-year term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders. Each director shall serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her death, resignation, or removal. The board of directors has the exclusive right to increase or decrease the size of the board, provided such number will not be less than a minimum of three and more than a maximum of fifteen. Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors, and any vacancies on the board of directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum of the board of directors, or by a sole remaining director, and the directors so chosen shall hold office, subject to the limitations set forth in the Bylaws, until the next annual meeting and until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Subject to the rights of the holders of any then outstanding preferred stock any director may be removed from office, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all shares of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. This system of electing directors may discourage a third-party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes replacing a majority of directors more difficult for stockholders.

Undesignated preferred stock. The authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for the board of directors, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to obtain control of us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the Company.

Amendment of provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66²/₃% of all of the shares of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to amend the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation relating to calling special meetings of stockholders, stockholder actions by written consent, the number and election of directors, and director liability.

Amendment of provisions in the Bylaws. The affirmative vote of 66²/₃ % of the stockholders entitled to vote generally for the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to amend the provisions of our Bylaws relating to calling special meetings of stockholders, the advance notice procedures, the number, nomination, election, term, and removal of directors.

13

Our Bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for:

• any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf;

• any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers, employees, or agents to us or our stockholders;

• any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; or

• any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. is the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PAR.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Resales by Selling Stockholders

We are registering the shares of common stock on behalf of the selling stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement we entered into in connection with our acquisition of Prism, which agreement is incorporated herein by reference.

Any or all of the selling stockholders may offer the shares of common stock from time to time, either in increments or in a single transaction. The selling stockholders may also decide not to sell all the shares of common stock they are allowed to sell under this prospectus. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.

The term “selling stockholders” also includes persons who obtain common stock from the selling stockholders as a gift, on foreclosure of a pledge, in a distribution or dividend of assets by an entity to its equity holders or partners, as an assignee, transferee or other successor-in-interest, or in another private transaction.

Types of Sale Transactions

The selling stockholders may sell the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices that may be changed. Sales of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders may occur from time to time in one or more of the following types of transactions (which may involve crosses or block transactions):

• through the New York Stock Exchange or any other securities exchange that quotes the common stock;

• in the over-the-counter market;

• in transactions other than on those exchanges or in the over-the-counter market (including negotiated transactions and other private transactions);

• in short sales (sales of shares completed by delivery of borrowed stock) of the common stock, in transactions to cover short sales or otherwise in connection with short sales;

• by pledge to secure debts and other obligations or on foreclosure of a pledge;

• through put or call options, including the writing of exchange-traded call options, or other hedging transactions related to the common stock;

• in a combination of any of the above transactions; or

• any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

Selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions from time to time in which a selling stockholder may:

• enter into transactions with a broker-dealer or any other person in connection with which such broker-dealer or other person will engage in short sales of common stock, in which case such broker-dealer or other person may use shares of common stock received from the selling stockholder to close out its short positions;

• sell common stock short itself and redeliver shares offered by this prospectus to close out its short positions or to close out stock loans incurred in connection with its short positions;

• enter into option or other types of transactions that require the selling stockholder to deliver common stock to a broker-dealer or any other person, who will then resell or transfer the common stock under this prospectus; or

• loan or pledge the common stock to a broker-dealer or any other person, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares under this prospectus.

15

Selling stockholders may use broker-dealers or other persons to sell their shares in transactions that may include one or more of the following:

• a block trade in which a broker-dealer or other person may resell a portion of the block, as principal or agent, in order to facilitate the transaction;

• purchases by a broker-dealer or other person, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer or other person for its account; or

• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers.

Resales by selling stockholders may be made directly to investors or through securities firms acting as underwriters, brokers or dealers. When resales are to be made through a securities firm, the securities firm may be engaged to act as the selling stockholder’s agent in the resale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholder, or the securities firm may purchase shares of our common stock from the selling stockholder as principal and thereafter resell those shares from time to time. The fees earned by or paid to the securities firm may be the normal stock exchange commission or negotiated commissions or underwriting discounts to the extent permissible. The securities firm may resell the securities through other securities dealers, and commissions or concessions to those other dealers may be allowed.

The selling stockholders and any agent, broker or dealer that participates in sales of common stock offered by this prospectus may be deemed “underwriters” under the Securities Act, and any commissions or other consideration received by any agent, broker or dealer may be considered underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

Instead of selling shares of common stock under this prospectus, the selling stockholders may sell shares of common stock in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available.

Regulation M

We have informed the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation provisions of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to their sales of common stock.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify selling stockholders against certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act from sales of common stock. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, broker or dealer that participates in sales of common stock against liabilities arising under the Securities Act from sales of common stock.

Effectiveness of Registration Statement

Under the Merger Agreement, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part effective until the earlier of (1) the selling stockholders cease to hold registrable securities, (2) the date as of which all of the registrable securities have been sold pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or another registration statement filed under the Securities Act and (3) the date as of which all holders of registrable securities may sell their registrable securities without any limitation as to volume or manner of sale restrictions pursuant Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Expenses of this Offering

We have agreed to pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the registration and sale of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus, including, among other things, all registration and filing fees (including SEC, New York Stock Exchange and blue sky registration and filing fees), printing expenses, the fees and disbursements of our outside counsel and independent accountants, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling stockholders, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions and the costs of any additional counsel of the selling stockholders.
