LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 







 This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of December 1, 2011, by and
between COMERICA BANK (“Bank”) and NORTHERN POWER SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), 
 RECITALS

 Borrower wishes to obtain credit from time to time from Bank, and Bank desires to extend credit to Borrower. This Agreement sets forth the terms on
which Bank will advance credit to Borrower, and Borrower will repay the amounts owing to Bank. 
 AGREEMENT 

The parties agree as follows: 
 1. DEFINITIONS
AND CONSTRUCTION. 
 1.1 Definitions. As used in this Agreement, all capitalized terms shall have the definitions set forth on
Exhibit A. Any term used in the Code and not defined herein shall have the meaning given to the term in the Code. 
 1.2 Accounting
Terms. Any accounting term not specifically defined on Exhibit A shall be construed in accordance with GAAP and all calculations shall be made in accordance with GAAP. The term “financial statements” shall include the accompanying
notes and schedules. 
 2. LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT. 

2.1 Credit Extensions. 

(a) Promise to Pay. Borrower promises to pay to Bank, in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all Credit Extensions made by Bank to Borrower, together with interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof. 

(b) Advances Under Revolving Line. 

(i) Amount. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding
amount not to exceed the lesser of (A) the Revolving Line or (B) the Borrowing Base, plus the Non-Formula Amount, less the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued under the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the aggregate limits of the
corporate credit cards issued to Borrower and merchant credit card processing reserves under the Credit Card Services Sublimit and any amounts outstanding under the Foreign Exchange Sublimit. Except as set forth in the Prime Referenced Rate Addendum
attached hereto as Exhibit B, amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time without penalty or premium prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Advances under this
Section 2.1(b) shall be immediately due and payable. 
 (ii) Form of Request. Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower
will notify Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time (12:00 p.m. Pacific time for Bank-assisted wire transfers), on the Business Day that the Advance is to be made. Each such notification shall be promptly
confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form of Exhibit C. Bank is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon 

  
 1 








 
instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in Bank’s discretion such Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which
have become due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any facsimile or telephonic notice given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank
harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section 2. l(b) to Borrower’s deposit account. 

(iii) Letter of Credit Sublimit. Subject to the availability under the Revolving Line, and in reliance on the representations and
warranties of Borrower set forth herein, at any time and from time to time from the date hereof through the Business Day immediately prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, Bank shall issue for the account of Borrower such Letters of Credit as
Borrower may request by delivering to Bank a duly executed letter of credit application on Bank’s standard form; provided, however, that the outstanding and undrawn amounts under all such Letters of Credit (i) shall not at any time exceed
the Letter of Credit Sublimit, and (ii) shall be deemed to constitute Advances for the purpose of calculating availability under the Revolving Line. Any drawn but unreimbursed amounts under any Letters of Credit shall be charged as Advances
against the Revolving Line. All Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s form application and letter of credit agreement. Borrower will
pay any standard issuance and other fees that Bank notifies Borrower it will charge for issuing and processing Letters of Credit. 
 (iv)
Credit Card Services Sublimit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may request corporate credit cards and standard and e-commerce merchant account services from Bank (collectively, the “Credit Card
Services”). The aggregate limit of the corporate credit cards and merchant credit card processing reserves shall not exceed the Credit Card Services Sublimit, provided that availability under the Revolving Line shall be reduced by the aggregate
limits of the corporate credit cards issued to Borrower and merchant credit card processing reserves. In addition, Bank may, in its sole discretion, charge as Advances any amounts that become due or owing to Bank in connection with the Credit Card
Services. The terms and conditions (including repayment and fees) of such Credit Card Services shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Bank’s standard forms of application and agreement for the Credit Card Services, which Borrower
hereby agrees to execute. 
 (v) Foreign Exchange Sublimit. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any
other agreement that Borrower may enter into with the Bank in connection with foreign exchange transactions (“FX Contracts”), Borrower may request Bank to enter into FX Contracts with Borrower due not later than the Revolving Maturity
Date. Borrower shall pay any standard issuance and other fees that Bank notifies Borrower will be charged for issuing and processing FX Contracts for Borrower. The FX Amount shall at all times be equal to or less than the Foreign Exchange 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 Bank remaining 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 Bank, in its sole discretion from time to time. The initial Foreign Exchange Reserve
Percentage shall be ten percent (10%). 
 (vi) Collateralization of Obligations Extending Beyond Maturity. If any Letters of Credit,
Credit Card Services, or FX Contracts extend beyond the Revolving Maturity Date, then, effective as of the Revolving Maturity Date, the balance in any deposit accounts held by Bank and the certificates of deposit or time deposit accounts issued by
Bank in Borrower’s name (and any interest 

  
 2 








 
paid thereon or proceeds thereof, including any amounts payable upon the maturity or liquidation of such certificates or accounts), shall automatically secure such obligations to the extent of
the then continuing or outstanding and undrawn Letters of Credit, Credit Card Services or FX Contracts; provided, however, that if there are insufficient balances in such accounts to secure such obligations, Borrower shall immediately deposit such
additional funds as are necessary to fully secure such obligations. Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any requests by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any
part of such balances for so long as the Letters of Credit, Credit Card Services, or FX Contracts are outstanding or continue. 
 2.2
Overadvances. If the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances exceeds the lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base plus the Non-Formula Amount at any time, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the amount of such
excess. 
 2.3 Interest Rates, Payments, and Calculations. 

(a) Interest Rates. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance
thereof, as set forth in the Prime Referenced Rate Addendum attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
 (b) Late Fee; Default Rate. If
any payment is not made within 10 days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay Bank a late fee equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be
charged under applicable law. At Bank’s option, all Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage points above the interest rate
applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default. 
 (c) Payments. Except as set forth in the Prime Referenced
Rate Addendum attached hereto as Exhibit B, interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the term hereof. Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic
Payments against any of Borrower’s deposit accounts or against the Revolving Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by
becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. 
 (d)
Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change
in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed. 

2.4 Crediting Payments. While no Event of Default is continuing, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of
payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to immediately apply any wire transfer of funds, check,
or other item of payment Bank may receive to conditionally reduce Obligations, but such applications of funds shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check
or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 2:00 p.m. Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of
the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be
due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension. 

  
 3 








 2.5 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following: 

(a) Facility Fee. On the Closing Date, a fee equal to $6,250, which shall be nonrefundable; 

(b) Unused Facility Fee. A quarterly Unused Facility Fee equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum of the difference
between the Revolving Line and the average outstanding principal balance of the Advances under the Revolving Line during the applicable quarter plus the average outstanding face amount of all Letters of Credit during the applicable quarter,
which fee shall be payable in arrears within five (5) days of the last day of each such quarter and shall be nonrefundable; and 
 (c)
Bank Expenses. On the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses incurred and invoiced to Borrower through the Closing Date, and, after the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses, as and when they become due. 

2.6 Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to Section 13.8, shall continue in full force and
effect until Payment-in-Full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default. 
 3. CONDITIONS OF LOANS. 

3.1 Conditions Precedent to Initial Credit Extension. The obligation of Bank to make the initial Credit Extension is subject to the

 (a) timely receipt by Bank of the Payment/Advance
Form as provided in Section 2.1; and 
 (b) the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 shall be true and correct in all
material respects on and as of the date of such Payment/Advance Form and on the effective date of each Credit Extension as though made at and as of each such date, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or would exist after
giving effect to such Credit Extension (provided, however, that those representations and warranties expressly referring to another date shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of such date). The making of each Credit
Extension shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower on the date of such Credit Extension as to the accuracy of the facts referred to in this Section 3.2. 

4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. 

4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants and pledges to Bank a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure prompt
repayment of any and all Obligations and to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in the Schedule, such security interest constitutes a valid, first priority security
interest in the presently existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in later-acquired Collateral, in each case, subject only to Permitted Liens. Borrower also hereby agrees not to: (a) sell, transfer,
assign, mortgage, pledge, lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of its Intellectual Property, except in connection with Permitted Liens and Permitted Transfers; or (b) directly or indirectly enter into any agreement with any
Person that prohibits or restricts or limits the ability of Borrower to create, incur, pledge or suffer to exist any Lien in favor of Bank upon any of Borrower’s Intellectual Property. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement,
Bank’s Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect until Payment-in-Full. 
 4.2 Perfection of Security Interest. Borrower
authorizes Bank to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that (i) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as all assets of Borrower of the kind pledged hereunder,
and (ii) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency of filing 

  
 5 








 
office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to Borrower, if applicable. Any such financing statements may be filed by Bank at any time in any jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 of the Code is then in effect in that jurisdiction. Borrower shall from time to time
endorse and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all Negotiable Collateral and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue perfection of Bank’s security interests in the Collateral
and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have possession of the Collateral, except where expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or where Bank chooses to exercise in its
good faith credit judgment to perfect its security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement. Where Collateral is in possession of a third party bailee, Borrower shall take such commercially reasonable steps as Bank
reasonably requests for Bank to (i) obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, of the bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of Bank, (ii) obtain “control” of any Collateral
consisting of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper (as such items and the term “control” are defined in Revised Article 9 of the Code) by causing the securities intermediary or
depositary institution or issuing bank to execute a control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. Borrower will not create any chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a
security interest in the chattel paper. Borrower from time to time may deposit with Bank specific cash collateral to secure specific Obligations; Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such specific balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts
thereon or any request by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the specific Obligations are outstanding. 

4.3 Right to Inspect. Bank (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, from
time to time during Borrower’s usual business hours but no more than twice a year (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to inspect Borrower’s Books and to make copies thereof and to check, test, and appraise the
Collateral in order to verify Borrower’s financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral. 

4.4 Lock Box. 
 (a)
Borrower agrees that the Revolving Line shall be on a “remittance basis”. Borrower shall at its sole expense establish and maintain (and Bank, at Bank’s option, may establish and maintain at Borrower’s expense): 

(i) A United States Post Office lock box (the “Lock Box”), to which Bank shall have exclusive access and control. Borrower expressly
authorizes Bank, from time to time, to remove the contents from the Lock Box, for disposition in accordance with this Agreement. Borrower agrees to notify all account debtors and other parties obligated to Borrower that all payments made to Borrower
(other than payments by electronic funds transfer) shall be remitted, for the credit of Borrower, to the Lock Box, and Borrower shall include a like statement on all invoices; and 

(ii) A non-interest bearing deposit account with Bank which shall be titled as designated by Bank (the “Dominion of Funds Account”)
to which Bank shall have exclusive access and control. Borrower agrees to notify all account debtors and other parties obligated to Borrower that all payments made to Borrower by electronic funds transfer shall be remitted to the Dominion of Funds
Account, and Borrower, at Bank’s request, shall include a like statement on all invoices. Borrower shall execute all documents and authorizations as required by Bank to establish and maintain the Lock Box and the Dominion of Funds Account. 


  
 6 








 (b) Borrower shall hold in trust for Bank all amounts that Borrower receives despite the
directions to make payments to the Lock Box or Dominion of Funds Account, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit into the Lock Box or Dominion of
Funds Account, as applicable. 
 All items or amounts which are remitted to the Dominion of Funds Account, or otherwise delivered by or for
the benefit of Borrower to Bank on account of partial or full payment of, or with respect to, any Collateral shall, on a daily basis, be applied to the payment of outstanding Advances, whether then due or not, with the balance, if any, deposited to
Borrower’s operating account maintained at Bank. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all items or amounts remitted to the Lock Box, the Dominion of Funds Account or that Bank has otherwise received shall, in
Bank’s sole discretion, be applied to the payment of any amounts under the Revolving Line, whether then due or not, in such order or at such time of application as Bank may determine in its sole discretion. Borrower agrees that Bank shall not
be liable for any loss or damage which Borrower may suffer as a result of Bank’s processing of items or its exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement, including without limitation indirect, special or consequential damages,
loss of revenues or profits, or any claim, demand or action by any third party arising out of or in connection with the processing of items or the exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold
Bank harmless from and against all such third party claims, demands or actions, and all related expenses or liabilities, including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and INCLUDING CLAIMS, DAMAGES, FINES, EXPENSES, LIABILITIES OR CAUSES OF
ACTION OF WHATEVER KIND RESULTING FROM BANK’S OWN NEGLIGENCE except to the extent (but only to the extent) caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and warrants as follows: 

5.1 Due Organization and Qualification. Borrower and each Subsidiary is an entity duly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware
and qualified and licensed to do business in any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 5.2 Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents are within
Borrower’s powers, have been duly authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained in Borrower’s organizational documents, nor will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement
by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement by which it is bound, except to the extent such default would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.3 Collateral. Borrower has rights in or the power to transfer the Collateral, and its title to the Collateral is free and clear of
Liens, adverse claims, and restrictions on transfer or pledge except for Permitted Liens. Except for laptop computers and cell phones in the possession of Borrower’s employees and agents used for business purposes while out of the office, all
Collateral is located solely in the Collateral States. The Eligible Accounts are bona fide existing obligations. The property or services giving rise to such Eligible Accounts has been delivered or rendered to the account debtor or its agent for
immediate shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor. Borrower has not received notice of actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any account debtor whose accounts are included in any Borrowing Base Certificate as an Eligible
Account. No licenses or agreements giving rise to such Eligible Accounts are with any Prohibited Territory or with any Person organized under or doing business in a Prohibited Territory. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and
merchantable quality, free from all material defects, except for Inventory for which adequate reserves have been made. Except as set forth in the Schedule, none of the Collateral is maintained or invested with a Person other than Bank or Bank’s
Affiliates.

 5.4 Intellectual Property. Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property, except
for (a) licenses granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course of business, (b) software that is commercially available to the public and (c) non-material intellectual property licensed to Borrower. To the best of
Borrower’s knowledge, each of the Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made to Borrower that
any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.5 Name; Location of Chief Executive Office. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, Borrower has not done business under any name other
than that specified on the signature page hereof, and its exact legal name is as set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. The chief executive office of Borrower is located in the Chief Executive Office State at the address indicated in
Section 10 hereof. 
 5.6 Actions, Suits, Litigation, or Proceedings. Except as set forth in the Schedule, there are no actions,
suits, litigation or proceedings, at law or in equity, pending by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court, administrative agency, or arbitrator in which a likely adverse decision would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 5.7 No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements. All consolidated and consolidating financial statements related to
Borrower and any Subsidiary that are delivered by Borrower to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating financial condition as of the date thereof and Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating
results of operations for the period then ended. There has not been a material adverse change in the consolidated or in the consolidating financial condition of Borrower since the date of the most recent of such financial statements submitted to
Bank. 
 5.8 Solvency, Payment of Debts. Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature; the fair saleable
value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; and Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

5.9 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Borrower and each Subsidiary have met the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect
to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. No event has occurred resulting from Borrower’s failure to comply with ERISA that is reasonably likely to result in Borrower’s incurring any liability that would reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Borrower is not engaged principally,
or as one of the important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulations T and U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). Borrower has
complied in all material respects with all the provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower is in compliance with all environmental laws, regulations and ordinances except where the failure to comply is not reasonably likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has not violated any statutes, laws, ordinances or rules applicable to it, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower and each Subsidiary have filed or caused
to be filed all tax returns required to be filed, and have paid, or have made adequate provision for the payment of, all taxes reflected therein except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP or where the failure to

operation of Borrower’s business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.12 Inbound Licenses. Except as disclosed on the Schedule, Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any inbound license or other
similar agreement, the failure, breach, or termination of which would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, or that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower’s interest in such
license or agreement or any other property. 
 5.13 Full Disclosure. No representation, warranty or other statement made by Borrower
in any certificate or written statement furnished to Bank taken together with all such certificates and written statements furnished to Bank in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby contains any untrue statement
of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained in such certificates or statements, in light of the circumstances in which it is made, not misleading, it being recognized by Bank that the
projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections and forecasts may differ from the
projected or forecasted results. 
 6. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants that, until Payment-in-Full, Borrower shall do all
of the following: 
 6.1 Good Standing and Government Compliance. Borrower shall maintain its and each of its Subsidiaries’

requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. Borrower shall comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and maintain all material permits, licenses and approvals required thereunder

accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Bank; (iii) if applicable, copies of all statements, reports and notices sent or made available generally by Borrower to its security holders or to any holders of Subordinated Debt and all reports on

Business Days of submission of the unsigned electronic copy the certification of monthly financial statements, the intellectual property report, the Borrowing Base Certificate and the Compliance
Certificate, each bearing the physical signature of the Responsible Officer. 
 6.3 Inventory; Returns. Borrower shall keep all
Inventory in good and merchantable condition, free from all material defects except for Inventory for which adequate reserves have been made. Returns and allowances, if any, as between Borrower and its account debtors shall be on the same basis and
in accordance with the usual customary practices of Borrower, as they exist on the Closing Date. Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of all returns and recoveries and of all disputes and claims involving more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000). 
 6.4 Taxes. Borrower shall make, and cause each Subsidiary to make, due and timely payment or deposit of all material
federal, state, and local taxes, assessments, or contributions required of it by law, including, but not limited to, those laws concerning income taxes, F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A. and state disability, and will execute and deliver to Bank, on demand, proof
satisfactory to Bank indicating that Borrower or a Subsidiary has made such payments or deposits and any appropriate certificates attesting to the payment or deposit thereof; provided that Borrower or a Subsidiary need not make any payment if the

6.5 Insurance. 
 (a)
Borrower, at its expense, shall keep the Collateral insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, and all other hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as ordinarily insured against by other owners in similar businesses
conducted in the locations where Borrower’s business is conducted on the date hereof. Borrower shall also maintain liability and other insurance in amounts and of a type that are customary to businesses similar to Borrower’s. 

(b) All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with such companies, and in such amounts as reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All
policies of property insurance shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement, in a form satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an additional lender loss payee, and all liability insurance policies shall show Bank as an additional insured and
specify that the insurer must give at least twenty (20) days’ notice to Bank before canceling its policy for any reason other than nonpayment of premium in which case the insurer must give at least ten (10) days’ notice to Bank
prior to cancellation of the policy. Upon Bank’s request, Borrower shall deliver to Bank certified copies of the policies of insurance and evidence of all premium payments. If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, proceeds payable
under any casualty policy will, at Borrower’s option, be payable to Borrower to replace the property subject to the claim, provided that any such replacement property shall be deemed Collateral in which Bank has been granted a first priority
security interest. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all proceeds payable under any such policy shall, at Bank’s option, be payable to Bank to be applied on account of the Obligations. 

6.6 Accounts. Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall maintain all their depository and operating accounts with Bank and their primary
investment accounts with Bank or Bank’s Affiliates (covered by satisfactory control agreements), except (a) that Borrower and its Subsidiaries may maintain deposit, operating and investment accounts in an aggregate amount not to exceed
U.S. $400,000 at other banks (including banks outside of the United States) and without the need for control agreements and (b) for the TD Account so long as (i) Borrower notifies all account debtors and other parties obligated to Borrower
that all on-going payments made to Borrower shall be remitted, for the credit of Borrower, to a deposit account maintained with the Bank, and Borrower shall include a like statement on all invoices, (ii) after the expiration of the Second
Period, all cash balances in the TD Account are transferred and swept into a deposit account maintained with the Bank within 3 Business Days of deposit into the TD Account and (iii) the TD Account is closed by the TD Account Closing Date.

or registrations will be filed; (ii) prior to the filing of any such applications or registrations, execute such documents as Bank may reasonably request for Bank to maintain its perfection in such intellectual property rights to be registered
by Borrower; (iii) upon the request of Bank, either deliver to Bank or file such documents simultaneously with the filing of any such applications or registrations; (iv) upon filing any such applications or registrations, promptly provide
Bank with a copy of such applications or registrations together with any exhibits, evidence of the filing of any documents requested by Bank to be filed for Bank to maintain the perfection and priority of its security interest in such intellectual
property rights, and the date of such filing. 
 (d) Borrower shall (i) protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of
the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, and trade secrets, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to detect infringements of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights and promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements detected and
(iii) not allow any material Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the written consent of Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

6.9 Consent of Inbound Licensors. Prior to entering into or becoming bound by any license or other similar agreement (other than
licenses for over-the-counter software or technology that is commercially available to the public), Borrower shall provide written notice to Bank of the material terms of such license or agreement with a description of its likely impact on
Borrower’s business or financial condition.

 7.6

 13 








 7.7 Investments. Directly or indirectly acquire or own, or make any Investment in or to
any Person, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so, other than Permitted Investments, or maintain or invest any of its property with a Person other than Bank or Bank’s Affiliates or permit any Subsidiary to do so unless such Person has

 8.1 Payment Default. If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations when due; 

8.2 Covenant Default.

within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable
period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, so long as Borrower continues to diligently attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to have cured such

any state, county, municipal, or governmental agency, and the same is not paid within five (5) days after Borrower receives notice thereof, provided that none of the foregoing shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or event is

8.7 Other Agreements. If there is a default or other failure to perform in any agreement to which Borrower is a party with a third party

a Material Adverse Effect;

representation set forth in any Guaranty Document or in any certificate delivered to Bank in connection with any Guaranty Document, or if any of the circumstances described in Sections 8.3 through 8.9 occur with respect to any Guarantor. 

9. BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without
notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, in accordance with applicable law, all of which are authorized by Borrower: 

(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.6 (insolvency), all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); 

(b) Demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to the amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn,
outstanding Credit Card Services or outstanding FX Contracts, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, outstanding Credit Card Services or outstanding FX Contracts, and (ii) pay in advance
all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of the Letters of Credit, Credit Card Services fees or FX Contracts fees, and Borrower shall promptly deposit and pay such amounts; 

(c) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between
Borrower and Bank; 
 (d) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order
that Bank reasonably considers advisable; 
 (e) Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect
its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate during normal business hours. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises
where the Collateral is located, to take 

  
 16 








 and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any
encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower’s owned premises, Borrower hereby
grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge by Borrower, WPH or any affiliate of Borrower or WPH, in order to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in
equity, or otherwise; 
 (f) Set off and apply to the Obligations then due any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by
Bank, and (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank; 
 (g) Ship, reclaim,
recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1,
to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in
completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to
Bank’s benefit; 
 (h) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or
transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate.
Bank may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Bank may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale
of the Collateral. If Bank sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Bank, and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. If the purchaser fails to pay for
the Collateral, Bank may resell the Collateral and Borrower shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale; 
 (i) Bank may credit bid and
purchase at any public sale; 
 (j) Apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Collateral, without
notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Obligations and without regard to the solvency of Borrower, any guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations; and 

(k) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. 

Bank may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered
adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. 
 9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s designated officers, or employees) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for
verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into


  
 17 








 
Bank’s possession; (c) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts,
verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower’s policies of insurance; (f) settle and adjust
disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; and (g) file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments
thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Borrower where permitted by law; provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in clause (g) above,
regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations
have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated. 
 9.3 Accounts
Collection. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Borrower
shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for
deposit. 
 9.4 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or
entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Line
as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.5 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as
Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any
payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement. 

9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. Bank has no obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. All risk of
loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower. 
 9.6 No Obligation to Pursue Others. Bank has no
obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other person liable for them and Bank may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting
Bank’s rights against Borrower. Borrower waives any right it may have to require Bank to pursue any other Person for any of the Obligations. 

9.7 Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be
cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and
then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Borrower expressly agrees that this Section 9.7 may not be waived or modified by Bank by course of performance, conduct, estoppel or
otherwise. 

  
 18 








 9.8 Demand; Pretest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Borrower waives
demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment and any other notices relating to the Obligations. 

10. NOTICES. 
 10.1 Unless
otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by any party relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith shall be in writing and (except for financial statements and other informational
documents which may be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid) shall be personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight delivery service, certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telefacsimile or email to Borrower

11.1 This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to
principles of conflicts of law. Each of Borrower and Bank hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts located in the State of California. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A
CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN 

  
 19 








 
CIRCUMSTANCES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR
THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED PARTIES. 

12. REFERENCE PROVISION. 

12.1 In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to proceed under this Judicial Reference
Provision. 
 12.2 With the exception of the items specified in Section 12.3, below, any controversy, dispute or claim (each, a
“Claim”) between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other document, instrument or agreement between the undersigned parties (collectively in this Section, the “Loan Documents”), will be resolved by a
reference proceeding in California in accordance with the provisions of Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of
any Claim, including whether the Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the Superior Court in the County where the real property involved in the
action, if any, is located or in a County where venue is otherwise appropriate under applicable law (the “Court”).

any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or oppose from a court of competent jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or
opposition to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this Agreement. 
 12.4 The referee shall
be a retired Judge or Justice selected by mutual written agreement of the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten (10) days of a written request to do so by any party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by
the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result if ex parte relief is not granted. 

12.5 The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings. Accordingly, the referee shall be requested,
subject to change in the time periods specified herein for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try
all issues of law or fact within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii) report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for decision. 

12.6 The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or
cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s failure to provide requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery,


  
 20 








 
depositions may be taken by either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating
to discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be final and binding. 
 12.7
Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the referee shall determine the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings, the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that
arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee, except for trial, shall be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so requests, a court reporter will be
used at any hearing conducted before the referee, and the referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall have the obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s
power to award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the court reporter at trial. 
 12.8
The referee shall be required to determine all issues in accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the
reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and rule on any motion which would be authorized in a court proceeding, including without
limitation motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding which disposes of all claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP §
644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as if the action had been tried by the Court and any such decision will be final, binding and conclusive. The parties reserve the right to appeal from the
final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different
judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this provision. 
 12.9 If the enabling legislation which
provides for appointment of a referee is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration. The arbitration will
be conducted by a retired judge or Justice, in accordance with the California Arbitration Act §1280 through §1294.2 of the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such
arbitration proceeding. 
 12.10 THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED UNDER THIS REFERENCE
PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES
THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 

13. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 

13.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of
each of the parties and shall bind all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any

13.8 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as
any Obligations remain outstanding or Bank has any obligation to make any Credit Extension to Borrower. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 13.2
shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Bank have run. 
 13.9

 PRIME REFERENCED RATE ADDENDUM TO 

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 

This Prime Referenced Rate Addendum to Loan and Security Agreement (this “Addendum”) is entered into as of December 1, 2011, by
and between Comerica Bank (“Bank”) and Northern Power Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”). This Addendum supplements the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 1, 2011 (as
the same may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or restated from time to time, collectively, the “Agreement”). 
 1. Definitions.
As used in this Addendum, the following terms shall have the following meanings. Initially capitalized terms used and not defined in this Addendum shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement. 

a. “Applicable Margin” means one percent (1.00%) per annum. 

b. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day designated as a holiday under Federal or applicable
State statute or regulation, on which Bank is open for all or substantially all of its domestic and international business (including dealings in foreign exchange) in San Jose, California, and, in respect of notices and determinations relating the
Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, also a day on which dealings in dollar deposits are also carried on in the London interbank market and on which banks are open for business in London, England. 

c. “Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate” means, for any day, a per annum interest rate which is equal to the quotient of the following: 

 

	 	(1)	for any day, the per annum rate of interest determined on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States Dollars for a period equal to one (1) month appearing on Page BBAM of the Bloomberg Financial Markets
Information Service as of 8:00 a.m. (California time) (or as soon thereafter as practical) on such day, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the event that such rate does not appear on Page BBAM of the
Bloomberg Financial Markets Information Service (or otherwise on such Service) on any day, the “Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate” for such day shall be determined by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying eurodollar
rates as may be reasonably selected by Bank, or in the absence of such other service, the “Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate” for such day shall, instead, be determined based upon the average of the rates at which Bank is offered dollar deposits
at or about 8:00 a.m. (California time) (or as soon thereafter as practical), on such day, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day, in the interbank eurodollar market in an amount comparable to the outstanding
principal amount of the Obligations and for a period equal to one (1) month; 

 divided by 

 

	 	(2)	1.00 minus the maximum rate (expressed as a decimal) on such day at which Bank is required to maintain reserves on “Euro-currency Liabilities” as defined in and pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or, if such regulation or definition is modified, and as long as Bank is required to maintain reserves against a category of liabilities which includes eurodollar deposits or includes a category of assets
which includes eurodollar loans, the rate at which such reserves are required to be maintained on such category. 








 d. “LIBOR Lending Office” means Bank’s office located in the Cayman Islands,
British West Indies, or such other branch of Bank, domestic or foreign, as it may hereafter designate as its LIBOR Lending Office by notice to Borrower. 

e. “Prime Rate” means the per annum interest rate established by Bank as its prime rate for its borrowers, as such rate may vary from
time to time, which rate is not necessarily the lowest rate on loans made by Bank at any such time. 
 f. “Prime Referenced Rate”
means, for any day, a per annum interest rate which is equal to the Prime Rate in effect on such day, but in no event and at no time shall the Prime Referenced Rate be less than the sum of the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate for such day plus two and
one-half percent (2.50%) per annum. If, at any time, Bank determines that it is unable to determine or ascertain the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate for any day, the Prime Referenced Rate for each such day shall be the Prime Rate in effect at such
time, but not less than two and one-half percent (2,50%) per annum. 
 2. Interest Rate. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Addendum,
the Obligations under the Agreement shall bear interest at the Prime Referenced Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 3. Payment of Interest. Accrued
and unpaid interest on the unpaid balance of the Obligations outstanding under the Agreement shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first day of each month, until maturity (whether as stated herein, by acceleration, or otherwise). In the event
that any payment under this Addendum becomes due and: payable on any day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, to the extent applicable, interest shall continue to accrue and be
payable thereon during such extension at the rates set forth in this Addendum. Interest accruing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed, and in such computation,
effect shall be given to any change in the applicable interest rate as a result of any change in the Prime Referenced Rate on the date of each such change. 

4. Bank’s Records. The amount and date of each advance under the Agreement, its applicable interest rate, and the amount and date of any repayment
shall be noted on Bank’s records, which records shall be prima facie evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, any failure by Bank to make any such notation, or any error in any such notation, shall not relieve Borrower
of its obligations to repay Bank all amounts payable by Borrower to Bank under or pursuant to this Addendum and the Agreement, when due in accordance with the terms hereof. 

5. Default Interest Rate. From and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, and so long as any such Event of Default remains unremedied or uncured
thereafter, the Obligations outstanding under the Agreement shall bear interest at a per annum rate of five percent (5%) above the otherwise applicable interest rate hereunder, which interest shall be payable upon demand. In addition to the
foregoing, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of each late payment hereunder may be charged on any payment not received by Bank within ten (10) calendar days after the payment due date therefor, but acceptance of payment of
any such charge shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default under the Agreement. In no event shall the interest payable under this Addendum and the Agreement at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. 

  
 2 








 6. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay all or part of the outstanding balance of any Obligations at any time
without premium or penalty. Any prepayment hereunder shall also be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing shall not, in any way whatsoever,
limit, restrict, or otherwise affect Bank’s right to make demand for payment of all or any part of the Obligations under the Agreement due on a demand basis, in Bank’s sole and absolute discretion. 

7. Regulatory Developments or Other Circumstances Relating to the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate. 

a. If the adoption after the date hereof, or any change after the date hereof in, any applicable law, rule or regulation (whether domestic or
foreign) of any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) made by any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency after the date hereof: (a) shall subject Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this Addendum or any Obligations under the
Agreement, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to Bank of the principal of or interest under this Addendum or any other amounts due under this Addendum in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income
of Bank or its LIBOR Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which Bank’s principal executive office or LIBOR Lending Office is located); or (b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any
imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Bank, or shall impose on Bank or the foreign exchange and
interbank markets any other condition affecting this Addendum or the Obligations hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of maintaining any part of the Obligations hereunder or to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by Bank under this Addendum by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then Borrower shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate of Bank, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by Bank and submitted by Bank to Borrower, setting forth the basis for determining
such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 b.
In the event that any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation (whether domestic or foreign) now or hereafter in effect and whether or not presently applicable to Bank, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by Bank with any guideline, request or directive of any such authority (whether or not having the force of law), including any risk-based capital guidelines, affects or would
affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Bank (or any corporation controlling Bank), and Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any obligations of Bank hereunder or
the maintaining of any Obligations hereunder, and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s (or such controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of such obligations or the maintaining of such Obligations
hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or such controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then Borrower shall pay to Bank, within fifteen
(15) days of Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate Bank (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the amount of capital and reduced rate
of return which Bank reasonably determines to be allocable to the existence of any obligations of the Bank hereunder or to maintaining any Obligations hereunder. A certificate of Bank as to the amount of such compensation, prepared in good faith and
in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by Bank to the undersigned, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

 8. Legal Effect. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement
remain in full force and effect. 
 9. Conflicts. As to the matters specifically the subject of this Addendum, in the event of any conflict between
this Addendum and the Agreement, the terms of this Addendum shall control. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have agreed to the foregoing
as of the date first set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall not include any copyrights, patents, trademarks, servicemarks and applications therefor, now owned or
hereafter acquired, or any claims for damages by way of any past, present and future infringement of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Intellectual Property”); provided, however, that the Collateral shall include all accounts and
general intangibles that consist of rights to payment from the sale, licensing or disposition of all or any part of, or rights in, the Intellectual Property (“Rights to Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a judicial authority

2011, include the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Rights to Payment.

 Exhibit G-5 








 AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 

This Amendment No. 1 to Loan and Security Agreement (“Amendment”) is made on May 18 2012 (“First Amendment
Effective Date”) between NORTHERN POWER SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”) and COMERICA BANK, a Texas banking association (“Bank”). 

Borrower and Bank entered into a Loan and Security Agreement dated December 1, 2011 (“Loan and Security Agreement”) providing
terms and conditions governing certain loans and other credit accommodations extended by Bank to Borrower (“Indebtedness”). 

Borrower and Bank have agreed to amend the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement as provided in this Amendment. 

Accordingly, Borrower and Bank agree as follows: 

1. Capitalized Terms. In this Amendment capitalized terms that are used without separate definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan
and Security Agreement. 
 2. Amendments. The Loan and Security Agreement is amended as follows: 

(a) Clause (ii) of Section 6.2 of the Loan and Security Agreement is amended to read in its entirety as follows: 

“(ii) as soon as available, but in any event within one hundred fifty (150) days after the end of WPH’s fiscal year
(except for WPH’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, by July 15, 2012), audited consolidated and consolidating financial statements of WPH and its Subsidiaries prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, together with an opinion
which is unqualified (unless such qualification is solely the result of a ‘going concern’ related to insufficient access to capital and/or negative profits and Ex-Im grants a waiver allowing such statements to be qualified) or otherwise
consented to in writing by Bank on such financial statements of an independent certified public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Bank;”. 
 3.
Representations. Borrower represents and agrees that: 
 (a) Except as expressly modified in this Amendment, (i) the representation
and warranties set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement and in each Loan Document remain true and correct in all respects, except to the extent that they expressly speak as of a specific prior date, and (ii) the covenants set forth in the Loan
and Security Agreement continue to be satisfied in all respects, and are legal, valid and binding obligations with the same force and effect as if entirely restated in this Amendment. 

(b) When executed, this Amendment will be a duly authorized, legal, valid, and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable in accordance with
its terms, and will not conflict with or violate any of Borrower’s formation documents or any agreement, instrument, law, or order to which Borrower or any material portion of its assets is subject or bound. 

(c) Borrower continues to be in good standing under the laws of the States of Delaware and Vermont. 







 (d) There is no default continuing under the Loan and Security Agreement, or any related
document, agreement, or instrument, and no event has occurred or condition exists that is or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would be such a default. 

4. Conditions Precedent. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject Bank’s receipt of or Borrower’s satisfaction of all of the following:

 (a) this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower; 

(b) execution and delivery by the Guarantors of the attached Acknowledgement and Consent of Guarantors; 

(c) corporate resolutions and incumbency certifications for the Borrower and each Guarantor, in form acceptable to Bank; 

(d) payment all of Bank expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment; and 

(e) such other documents and completion of such other matters as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate.
