Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

(b)           As previously reported, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) held on June 13, 2011, Peter A. Michel received a greater number of “withheld” votes from his election as a Class I Director than votes “for” his election as a Class I Director. In accordance with the Director Majority Voting Policy of the Company (the “Policy”), following the Annual Meeting, Mr. Michel tendered to the Company his resignation as a Director. Pursuant to the Policy, the Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors is required to consider the tendered resignation, and recommend to the Board of Directors whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation. The Board of Directors is then required to act on the recommendation of the Nominating Committee, which action may include acceptance or rejection of the tendered resignation.

On June 27, 2011, the Nominating Committee determined to recommend to the Board of Directors that it accept Mr. Michel’s resignation. On June 28, 2011, the Board of Directors acted on the recommendation of the Nominating Committee, and accepted the resignation of Mr. Michel, effective immediately. During February 2010, Mr. Michel had been selected to serve on the Board of Directors by Shareholder Advocates for Value Enhancement (“SAVE”) pursuant to the Settlement Agreement dated February 4, 2010 between the Company, SAVE and certain other parties.
