CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), amends the Loan Agreement dated as of October 1, 2010 (the “Loan Agreement”), between the Authority and the Company.

Illinois Finance Authority Recovery Zone Facility Revenue Bonds (Navistar International Corporation Project) Series 2010 (the “Bonds”), in the aggregate principal amount of $135,000,000, under the Indenture of Trust dated as of
October 1, 2010, as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture of Trust dated August 1, 2016 (as supplemented and amended, the “Indenture”), between the Authority and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the
“Trustee”). 
 The Company wishes to amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement with the consent of the owners of not
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds outstanding and has requested the Authority to enter into this Amendment, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 2.05.    Section 4.07(x) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated
in its entirety to read as follows: 
 (x)    Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to
the Senior Notes, the Bonds, the Cook County Bonds or the related Subsidiary Guarantees, as the case may be, not to exceed $300.0 million at any time outstanding; 

2.06.    Section 4.07(aa) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: 

(aa)    Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries not otherwise permitted to be
incurred pursuant to clauses (a) through (z) of this Section 4.07, which, together with any other outstanding Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (aa), has an aggregate principal amount not in excess of
$225.0 million at any time outstanding; 
 2.07.    Section 4.07 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended by adding
the following three paragraphs as the last three paragraphs of such Section: 
 In the event that the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary enters into or increases commitments under a revolving credit facility or enters into any commitment to incur or issue Indebtedness, the incurrence or issuance thereof for all purposes under this Loan Agreement, including
without limitation for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio or the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio, as applicable, or availability of clauses (a) through (aa) of this Section for borrowings and reborrowings thereunder
(and including issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) will, at the Company’s option, exercised when the revolving credit facility or increased commitment is entered into, either (i) be
determined on the date of such revolving credit facility or such entry into or increase in commitments (assuming that the full amount thereof has been borrowed as of such date) or other Indebtedness and be considered outstanding for purposes of
calculating such ratios and other provisions of this Loan Agreement, and, if the covenant with respect to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio or Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio, as applicable, or other provision of this Loan Agreement is satisfied with
respect thereto at such time, any borrowing or reborrowing thereunder (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) will be permitted under this covenant irrespective of the


  
 -3- 








 
Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio or Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio, as applicable, or other provision of this Loan Agreement at the time of any borrowing or reborrowing (or issuance or creation
of letters of credit or bankers’ acceptances thereunder) or (ii) be determined on the date such amount is borrowed or reborrowed pursuant to any such facility or increased commitment. 

Notwithstanding anything in this covenant to the contrary, in the case of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance Indebtedness
initially incurred in reliance on a clause of the first paragraph of this covenant measured by reference to a maximum Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio at the time of incurrence, if such refinancing would cause the maximum Secured Indebtedness
Leverage Ratio restriction to be exceeded if calculated based on the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio on the date of such refinancing, as applicable, such Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio restriction shall not be deemed to be exceeded so long
as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance, costs and fees in connection with such refinancing. 

Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Agreement to the contrary, if the Senior Notes include a covenant (a “More
Favorable Covenant”) that, in the sole judgment of the Trustee or the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds, is more restrictive to the Company or otherwise more favorable to the holders of the
Senior Notes than the covenants contained in any of Sections 4.07(n), (r), (x) and (aa) (each, an “Existing Covenant”), taking into account for these purposes the effect of any defined term used or referenced in any More Favorable
Covenant or Existing Covenant, then, upon receipt by the Company of a notice to that effect from the Trustee, or a notice from such holders with a copy to the Trustee, this Loan Agreement shall, without any further action by any party, be deemed to
be amended to either conform a corresponding Existing Covenant to such More Favorable Covenant or, if there is no corresponding Existing Covenant, to include such More Favorable Covenant in this Loan Agreement; provided that, with respect to the
Existing Covenant contained in Section 4.07(n), the foregoing shall also apply if and to the extent that a More Favorable Covenant is contained in any Credit Facilities in effect from time to time. At the request of the Trustee or the holders
of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds, the Company shall execute and deliver a written document evidencing such deemed amendment to this Loan Agreement.

 2.08.    Section 4.08(a)(iv)(3)(A) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows: 
 (A)    50% of cumulative Consolidated Net Income of the
Company (or, in the case cumulative Consolidated Net Income of the Company shall be negative, less 100% of such deficit) for the period (treated as a single accounting period) from August 1, 2017 through the last day of the Company’s most
recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available; plus 
 2.09.    Section 4.08(b)(xvi) of the
Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: 
 (xvi)    if no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof, any other Restricted Payment which, together with all other Restricted Payments made pursuant to this clause (xvi), does not exceed
$225.0 million in aggregate since the date of execution of the Amendment plus, to the extent any Restricted Payment made pursuant to this clause (xvi) constitutes an Investment, the amount of all such Investments that are no longer
outstanding. 
 2.10.    Section 12.07 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as
follows: 
 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Loan Agreement shall be governed
exclusively by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State without application of the conflicts of law provisions of any other state. With respect to any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Loan Agreement, and
for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to exclusive jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Cook County and any State of Illinois appellate court thereof,
and irrevocably waives any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.

 The amendments to the
Loan Agreement set forth in Section 2 of this Amendment shall be effective as of the date (the “Amendment Effective Date”) of the execution and delivery of this Amendment by the Authority and the Company and consent of the

	4.	MISCELLANEOUS. 

 Except as specifically amended herein, the Loan Agreement shall
continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Reference to this Amendment need not be made in any note, document, agreement, letter, certificate, the Loan Agreement itself, or any communication issued or made subsequent to or with
