This Advance Formula Agreement (the "Agreement") is made
as of May 4, 2017, by PERCEPTRON, INC. ("Debtor"), unto COMERICA BANK ("Bank").


 


This Agreement amends, restates, and supersedes in its entirety,
without novation, that certain Advance Formula Agreement dated as of October 30, 2015 by and between Debtor and Bank, as the same
may have been amended from time to time.


 


Debtor executed and delivered unto Bank that certain Master Revolving
Note dated as of May 4, 2017, made in the principal amount of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000) (as the same may be amended, modified,
extended, renewed, restated, substituted and/or replaced from time to time, and whether in a greater or lesser amount, the "Note").
Debtor's liabilities, obligations and indebtedness under or pursuant to the Note are secured pursuant to certain collateral documents
entered into from time to time between Debtor and Bank, including, without limit, that certain Security Agreement dated October
24, 2002, executed and delivered by Debtor unto Bank (as the same may be amended, modified, extended, renewed, restated, substituted
and/or replaced from time to time, the "Security Agreement").

due and payable.


 


12.         
DILUTION OF ACCOUNTS. In the event that Bank, at any time in its sole discretion, determines that the dollar amount
of Eligible Accounts collectable by Debtor is reduced or diluted as a result of discounts or rebates granted by Debtor to the respective
Account Debtor(s), returned or rejected Inventory or services, or such other reasons or factors as Bank deems applicable, Bank
may, in its sole discretion, upon five (5) business days’ prior written notice to Debtor, reduce or otherwise modify the
