			This BUSINESS FINANCING AGREEMENT, dated as of June 2, 2017, is made and entered into between WESTERN ALLIANCE BANK, AN ARIZONA CORPORATION (“Lender”) and CAPSTONE TURBINE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), on the following terms and conditions:
		

		
			1.           REVOLVING CREDIT LINE.
		

		
			1.1         Advances.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from the date on which this Agreement becomes effective until the Maturity Date, Lender will make Advances to Borrower not exceeding the Credit Limit (subject at all times to, in the case of Advances with respect to EXIM Eligible Receivables and EXIM Eligible Inventory, the EXIM Credit Limit) or the Borrowing Base (subject at all times to the Domestic Borrowing Base and EXIM Borrowing Base as applicable), whichever is less; provided that in no event shall Lender be obligated to make any Advance that results in an Overadvance or while any Overadvance is outstanding. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement. It shall be a condition to each Advance that (a) an Advance Request acceptable to Lender has been received by Lender, (b) all of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 are true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties already qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects), on the date of such Advance as though made at and as of each such date (other than representations and warranties that speak as of an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date), and (c) no Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Advance. 
		

		
			1.2         Advance Requests.  Borrower may request that Lender make an Advance by delivering to Lender an Advance Request therefor and Lender shall be entitled to rely on all the information provided by Borrower to Lender on or with the Advance Request. If the conditions to lending noted in Section 1.1 are satisfied, the Lender shall honor Advance Requests, instructions or repayments given by Borrower (if an individual) or by any Authorized Person.
		

		
			1.3         Due Diligence.  Lender may audit Borrower’s Receivables and Inventory and any and all records pertaining to the Collateral, at Lender’s sole discretion and at Borrowers expense provided, an audit must be completed prior to the initial Advance and at least once every six months thereafter. Lender may appraise the Inventory, at Lender’s sole discretion and at Borrowers expense provided, an appraisal must be completed prior to the initial Advance and at least once every twelve months thereafter. Lender may at any time and from time to time contact Account Debtors and other persons obligated or knowledgeable in respect of Receivables to confirm the Receivable Amount of such Receivables, to determine whether Receivables constitute Eligible Receivables, and for any other purpose in connection with this Agreement. If any of the Collateral or Borrower’s books or records pertaining to the Collateral are in the possession of a third party, Borrower authorizes that third party to permit Lender or its agents to have access to perform inspections or audits thereof and to respond to Lender’s requests for information concerning such Collateral and records.
		

		
			1.4         Collections.
		

		
			(a)          Lender shall have the exclusive right to receive all Collections on all Receivables. Borrower shall (i) immediately transfer and deliver to Lender all Collections Borrower receives for deposit into the Collection Account, (ii) deliver to Lender a detailed cash receipts journal on Friday of each week until the Lockbox is operational, and (iii) immediately enter into a collection services agreement acceptable to Lender (the “Lockbox Agreement”) pursuant to which all Collections received in the Lockbox shall be deposited into the Collection Account. Borrower shall use the Lockbox address as the remit to and payment address for all of Borrower’s Collections from Account Debtors, and Borrower shall instruct all Account Debtors to make payments either directly to the Lockbox for deposit by Lender directly to the Collection Account, or instruct them to deliver such payments to Lender by wire transfer, ACH, or other means as Lender may direct for deposit to the Lockbox or Collection Account. It will be considered an immediate Event of Default if this does not occur or the Lockbox is not operational within 45 days of the date of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower may maintain any deposit account it maintains with Wells Fargo as of the date of this Agreement solely (i) for purposes of receipt of Collections from customers who have not yet begun paying into the Lockbox or the Collections Account so long as within 30 days from the date of this Agreement (or such later date to which Lender may agree in its sole discretion), at Lender’s option, Borrower enters into one or more “springing” control agreements with Wells Fargo reasonably acceptable to Lender in respect of such account(s), Borrower promptly sweeps Collections received in such account(s) after the date hereof to the Lockbox or the Collections Account and such account(s) is closed within 90 days after the date of this Agreement (or such later date to which Lender may agree in its sole discretion), (ii) for purposes of payment of ACH and checks as of the date of this Agreement until there is no longer any ACH or checks outstanding on such account and (iii) for purposes of paying payroll until such function is switched to Lender or a payroll provider acceptable to Lender.
		

		
			


		 


		

			 

		





 



		

			 

		





		

		
			(b)          At Lender’s option, Lender may either (i) transfer all Collections deposited into the Collection Account to Borrower’s Account, or (ii) apply the Collections deposited into the Collection Account to the outstanding Account Balance, in either case, (x) at the end of each day or (y) if Lender is unable to do so at the end of each day, then in no event later than within three business days of the date received; provided that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Lender may apply all Collections to the Obligations in such order and manner as Lender may determine. Lender has no duty to do any act other than to apply such amounts as required above. If an item of Collections is not honored or Lender does not receive good funds for any reason, any amount previously transferred to Borrower’s Account or applied to the Account Balance shall be reversed as of the date transferred or applied, as applicable, and, if applied to the Account Balance, the Finance Charge will accrue as if the Collections had not been so applied. Lender shall have, with respect to any goods related to the Receivables, all the rights and remedies of an unpaid seller under the UCC and other applicable law, including the rights of replevin, claim and delivery, reclamation and stoppage in transit.  
		

		
			1.5         Receivables Activity Report. Within 30 days after the end of each Month End, Lender shall send to Borrower a report covering the transactions for the prior billing period, including the amount of all Advances, Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, and other fees and charges. The accounting shall be deemed correct and conclusive, absent manifest error, unless Borrower makes written objection to Lender within 30 days after the Lender sends the accounting to Borrower.
		

		
			1.6         Adjustments.  In the event any Adjustment or dispute is asserted by any Account Debtor, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resolve such disputes; provided that in no case will (a) the aggregate Adjustments made with respect to any Receivable exceed seven percent (7%) of its original Receivable Amount or (ii) the aggregate Adjustments made in any calendar month exceed $25,000, unless, in either case, Borrower has obtained the prior written consent of Lender. So long as any Obligations are outstanding, Lender shall have the right, at any time, to take possession of any rejected, returned, or recovered personal property valued more than $25,000, individually, or $100,000 in the aggregate,. If such possession is not taken by Lender, and provided that the value of such personal property is greater than $25,000, individually, or $100,000 in the aggregate, Borrower is to resell it for Lender’s account at Borrower’s expense with the proceeds made payable to Lender. While Borrower retains possession of any returned goods and the value of such returned goods is greater than $25,000, individually, or $100,000 in the aggregate, Borrower shall segregate said goods and mark them as property of Lender.
		

		
			1.7         Recourse; Maturity.  Advances and the other Obligations shall be with full recourse against Borrower. On the Maturity Date, Borrower will pay all then outstanding Advances and other Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) to the Lender or such earlier date as shall be herein provided.
		

		
			1.8         Letter of Credit Line.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender hereby agrees to issue or cause an Affiliate to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrower to support the obligations of Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”) from time to time; provided that (a) the sum of the Letter of Credit Obligations and the FX Amount (as hereinafter defined) shall not at any time exceed the International Sublimit and (b) the Letter of Credit Obligations will be treated as Advances for purposes of determining availability under the Credit Limit and shall decrease, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount available for other Advances. The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Lender, in its sole discretion. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Lender in connection with the issuance thereof (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). Each draft paid under any Letter of Credit shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Letter of Credit Agreement. No Letter of Credit shall be issued that results in an Overadvance or while any Overadvance is outstanding. Upon the Maturity Date, the amount of Letters of Credit Obligations shall be Cash Collateralized on terms reasonably acceptable to Lender if the term of this Agreement is not extended by Lender, or shall be terminated.
		

		
			1.9         Cash Management Services.  Borrower may use availability hereunder up to the Cash Management Sublimit for Lender’s cash management services, which may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit card, and check cashing services identified in various cash management services agreements related to such services (the “Cash Management Services”). The aggregate committed amount under the Cash Management Sublimit (without giving effect to any extensions of credit thereunder) will be treated as an Advance for purposes of determining availability under the Credit Limit and shall decrease, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount available for other Advances.  The Cash Management Services shall be subject to additional terms set forth in applicable cash management services agreements.
		

		
			1.10         Foreign Exchange Facility. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any other agreement that Borrower may enter into with Lender in connection with foreign exchange transactions (“FX Contracts”) and subject to the availability under the Credit Limit and the Borrowing Base, Borrower may request Lender to enter into FX Contracts with Borrower (the “Foreign Exchange Facility”), which shall be due no later than the Maturity Date unless cash secured on terms reasonably satisfactory to Lender.  Borrower shall conduct all its United States foreign currency exchange business through Lender. Borrower shall pay any standard issuance and

			other fees that Lender notifies Borrower will be charged for issuing and processing FX Contracts for Borrower. The sum of the Letter of Credit Obligations and the FX Amount shall at all times be equal to or less than the International Sublimit. The “FX Amount” shall equal the amount determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount, in United States Dollars, of FX Contracts between Borrower and Lender outstanding as of any date of determination by (ii) the applicable Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage as of such date. The “Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage” shall be a percentage as determined by Lender, in its reasonable discretion from time to time and advised to Borrower.  If at any time the EXIM Line of Credit is terminated or otherwise ceases to exist, Borrower shall immediately secure in cash all obligations under the Foreign Exchange Facility on terms reasonably acceptable to Lender or shall terminate its obligations under the Foreign Exchange Facility.
		

		
			1.11       Overadvances.  Upon any occurrence of an Overadvance, Borrower shall immediately pay down the Advances such that, after giving effect to such payments, no Overadvance exists; provided that if an Overadvance exists because Lender institutes reserves or changes its criteria for what constitutes eligible receivables or inventory for purposes of the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately pay down the Advances after written notice by Lender to Borrower of such Overadvance such that after giving effect to such payments, no Overadvance exists.
		

		
			1.12       Termination of Commitment.  On the Maturity Date the Line of Credit shall automatically terminate, all of Lender’s obligations to make Advances and extend credit to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and the Credit Limit shall automatically reduce to $0.  Borrower may also terminate the Line of Credit at any time upon not less than 7 days’ prior written notice to Lender (it being understood and agreed that the actual date of termination may be modified after delivery of such notice if in connection with a refinancing of the Line of Credit for which the date of such refinancing changes).  In the event of any termination of the Line of Credit, Borrower shall, concurrent with such termination, pay to Lender, in immediately available funds, the entire outstanding balance of the Obligations (other than (i) inchoate indemnification obligations and (ii) Letters of Credit Obligations and other Obligations that have been Cash Collateralized), including the Termination Fee, if applicable.

			(a)         Termination Fee.  In the event the Line of Credit under this Agreement is terminated prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay the Termination Fee to Lender; provided that if this Agreement, following Borrower's request and the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), is transferred to an operating division of Lender other than the Capital Finance Group, the transfer will not be deemed a termination resulting in the payment of the Termination Fee; provided that Borrower agrees, at the time of transfer, to the payment of comparable fees in an amount not less than that set forth in this Agreement, and provided further that such transfer is not as a result of an Event of Default.
