Don't start this crap.
11/24/19, 9:25 PM
What the issue
11/24/19, 9:26 PM
You have caused a significant issue, you are
in material breach of several agreements, and
we are now finding out you are also in breach
of settling other litigation that directly impacts
our deal.
11/24/19, 9:28 PM
That's your only issue?
11/24/19, 9:33 PM
With you, yes.
11/24/19, 9:33 PM
Ok great That can be fixed
11/24/19, 9:33 PM
It's funny how you call direct deals "little shits"
but they become a big problem when they
add up.
11/24/19, 9:34 PM
I need a list
11/24/19, 9:34 PM
?
11/24/19, 9:35 PM
We did a couple of enterprise deals, signed in
August, that were boarded before the
definitive doc was signed. They were very
clear that these were not part of the
residuals/portfolio because they were direct
deals. I have done my best to give you
everything | did after the deal, shit, I even
turned down revenue to run stuff through
shift4 and pay you guys. But, as usual, you
have fucked it up.
11/24/19, 9:37 PM
List of what
11/24/19, 9:37 PM
Deals
11/24/19, 9:37 PM
Of the direct deals
11/24/19, 9:38 PM
There were only a couple. I don't think I have
a list. Sam may have something. I am
working on my letter to finscrv stating you
are in breach.
11/24/19, 9:39 PM
No need for that
11/24/19, 9:39 PM
I handled that I'm sure it will be fine You
know I don't need that at all.
11/24/19, 9:39 PM
Finserv? Are you fucking kidding me? You
signed a fucking contract.
11/24/19, 9:41 PM
You are on a board call tomorrow, my friend..
11/24/19, 9:41 PM
Tomorrow is Monday you should have no
problem recalling the deals before the board
call
11/24/19, 9:42 PM
It's all good. Going to them was a last resort.
11/24/19, 9:42 PM
You can handle that
11/24/19, 9:42 PM
You have a copy of my letter to general
counsel

So I'm clear on the sequence of events here..
You and I spoke, I told you there was an
issue. I ask for a list and I get bullshit. I ask
again, and get "we may have a list"
11/24/19, 9:46 PM
Then I find out you may not have been
completely truthful with the settlement of
your prior lawsuit, which is a breach of our
agreement.
11/24/19, 9:46 PM
I think I will wait for the call tomorrow. Thank
for the lovely conversation.
11/24/19, 9:47 PM
Jared. Stop It's really not necessary Don't
threaten me You know that's not me We
can fix this without that
11/24/19, 9:49 PM
I will provide whatever I can for you, and I'm
asking you to not contact finserv. That has
nothing to do with you or me or those deals.
11/24/19, 9:50 PM
Sam is pulling a list, give him some time.
11/24/19, 9:50 PM
If you recall we had an entire group working
on the transition. I don't have access to that
intel.
11/24/19,9:55 PM
Jared, the board call request is not for you.
11/24/19, 9:56 PM
It's for your dad and Randy.
11/24/19, 9:56 PM
Got it.
11/24/19, 10:01 PM
We need to get this resolved so the next
payment is not held.
11/24/19, 10:01 PM
I realize that.

Payments for Residuals

Randy,
Yes, this is all fine and expected.
First, that drop off in rev/profit is almost entirely North
American Bancard. It was around 6.5-7M in rev. We knew
that was going direct at the end of Q1 as part of their
acquisition term sheet, so we expected that well before we
began discussions with Card Connect. It should not be
included in any of the baseline revenue or purchase price
calculations.
Second, the two large direct deals, that we discussed with
Card Connect during diligence (MGM and Landry's), are
also not included in any baseline revenue or purchase
price calculations. I think their combined rev is S5-6M a
year.
I believe everything else in terms of expected run rates in
terms of merchants, volume, revenue and profit has been
equal to or greater than expectations. We would just need
to back-out the above, whic

Payments for Residuals

Randy,
Yes, that all seems fine and expected, as it
was all known,
First, there was the NAB rev reduction, which I
think was near $7M. This was per their TS, long
before we began discussions with Card
Connect, so it was not included in any ARR
calculations.
Second, there were the two large direct deals
(MGM and Landry's), which altogether was
about $5-6M in rev. This was also agreed to
and known on both sides.
I think our baseline revenue and net was up
slightly for what we expected in the 2H of the
year. I'd need that confirmed with Sam and
Taylor since you have that info.
Thanks,

Exhibit E.

Subject: RE: Draft LOI

Randy,
Makes sense. Just so we are totally clear on our (Lighthouse)
run rate revenue, we are excluding (i) the NAB run rate
revenue (approx $7m), (ii) the Landry's run rate revenue
(approx $3m) and (iii) the MGM run rate revenue (approx
$2.5m). So we get to around $41M a year or $3.4M per
month. Of course, there will be some variation month to month
but it gets us directionally close. We can use August as the
first full month where the NAB impact is recognized and agree
to true-ups/downs every 6 months - 1 year. How do you
usually handle that period?

Thanks Jared - very helpful. Directionally, the run rate that you show looks to be right on as we
get to the low $40M range, which incorporates the items that you referenced. As always, and as
you said, we will need to look at the last few months to see what adjustments might be made to
that number but nothing obvious stands out at this point. The six month true up generally aligns
with the model.

Exhibit 12 to the Declaration of J.ুদের R. Drahi (Document 80-13): I did not have access to it. Because it declaration document, not the actually exhibit.

Key Observations and Contextual Notes

  • NAB (North American Bancard) Exclusion: The emails repeatedly discuss the exclusion of North American Bancard revenue from the baseline calculations. This was clearly a significant point of discussion before the deal with Card Connect was finalized.
  • Direct Deals (MGM and Landry's): Similarly, the revenue from MGM and Landry's, considered "direct deals," was also excluded from the baseline revenue. This also appears to have been agreed upon during the due diligence phase.
  • Run Rate Revenue: The discussions focus on establishing a "run rate" revenue for Lighthouse (Shift4's prior name), which would form the basis for payments or purchase price calculations. There's an attempt to get to a figure around $41 million annually, or $3.4 million per month, after excluding the NAB and direct deal revenue.
  • material breach: From the message content, it is know that J.ুদের R. Drahi considered, Jared Isaacman breached the contract.
  • Breach of Prior Settlement: The text messages from November 24, 2019, introduce a new element: an alleged breach of a prior settlement agreement by Jared Isaacman, which Drahi claims also impacts the agreement with Card Connect. This adds another layer of complexity to the dispute. The details surrounding the settlement were not listed.
  • Finserv Involvement: The discussion about contacting "Finserv" (likely referring to Fiserv, Card Connect's parent company) indicates an escalation of the conflict. Drahi's threat to involve Finserv was met with resistance from Isaacman.
