This SECOND MODIFICATION TO LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the
19th day of December, 2018, by and between RANOR, INC., a Delaware corporation
(the “Borrower”), and BERKSHIRE BANK, a savings bank organized and existing
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (“Lender”), successor by
merger to Commerce Bank & Trust Company, in the following circumstances:

 

A.       Lender has made a term loan to Borrower in the original principal
amount of $2,850,000.00 (the “Term Loan”), which Term Loan is evidenced by that
certain Promissory Note dated December 20, 2016 made by Borrower in favor of
Lender in the stated principal amount of $2,850,000.00 (the “Term Note”) and has
made a revolving line of credit loan to the Borrower in the maximum principal
amount of $1,000,000.00 (the “Line of Credit” and together with the Term Loan,
collectively, the “Loans”), which Line of Credit is evidenced by that certain
Promissory Note dated December 20, 2016 made by Borrower in favor of Lender in
the stated principal amount of $1,000,000.00 (the “Line of Credit Note” and
together with the Term Note, collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes are governed
by the Loan Agreement by and between Borrower and Lender dated December 20,
2016, as amended by that certain First Modification to Loan Agreement dated as
of June 6, 2018 (as amended, the “Loan Agreement”). Any capitalized terms used
but not expressly defined herein shall be given the same meaning given to such
term in the Loan Agreement.

 

B.       The Notes are secured by a lien on the assets of Borrower pursuant to
that certain Security Agreement by and between Borrower and Lender dated
December 20, 2016 (the “Security Agreement”). The Notes are further secured by
that certain Mortgage, Security Agreement and Financing Statement dated December
20, 2016 made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Mortgage”). The Notes are
further secured by the unlimited guaranty of TechPrecision Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (“Guarantor”) pursuant to that certain Unlimited Guaranty
dated as of December 20, 2016 made by Guarantor in favor of Lender (the
“Guaranty”).

 

C.       Borrower has requested that Lender extend the maturity of the Line of
Credit and Lender has agreed on the condition that the Loan Agreement be
modified as set forth herein.
