THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is effective as of the 24th day
of September, 2010 (the “Amendment Effective Date”). 
 RECITALS 

WHEREAS, MATRIX SERVICE COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as
Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and as a Lender and Issuing Bank, and the financial institutions therein named as Lenders, are parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as
November 30, 2006, as it has been amended by (i) that certain First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated July 6, 2007 (the “First Amendment”) and (ii) that certain Second Amendment to
Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated February 11, 2009 (as so amended, and as it may be amended, supplemented or restated from time to time hereafter in accordance with its terms, the “Credit Agreement”);

 WHEREAS, all capitalized terms used but not defined in these Recitals shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit
Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested amendments to certain of the covenants and other provisions of the Credit
Agreement, and the Lenders have agreed to such request on the terms and conditions and subject to certain other amendments set forth in this Amendment. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 1. Incorporation by Reference; Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment
(including the Recitals) shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. All terms defined in the foregoing Recitals are incorporated herein by reference. 

The term “Loan Documents” is hereby amended to include the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, all as they may be
further amended from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent and, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, the Lenders. 

The term “Agreement”, as used in the Credit Agreement, is hereby amended to mean the Credit Agreement, as amended by this
Amendment and as it may be further amended from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent and, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, the Lenders. 

The term “Credit Agreement” in all other Loan Documents is hereby amended to mean the Credit Agreement, as amended by this
Amendment and as it may be further amended from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent and, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, the Lenders. 







 2. Amendments. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 

(a) The definition of “Consolidated EBIT” is hereby deleted. 

(b) The definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” is amended by adding the following sentence at the end of such
definition: “Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purpose of determining Consolidated EBITDA for periods ending on or before June 30, 2011, the charges incurred in relation to the California wage and hour class action lawsuit shall be
added.” 
 (c) In the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA,” after the reference to “Senior
Leverage Ratio” there is hereby added “or Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,”. 
 (d) The Numerator for
the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is hereby amended to read: “Consolidated EBITDA for the previous four fiscal quarters ending on such day less all Capital Expenditures during the same period.” 

(e) The Compliance Certificate attached as Exhibit C to the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced with Exhibit C attached to
this Amendment. 
 3. Waiver. The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the period ended June 30, 2010 was not in
compliance with Section 6.19 of the Credit Agreement. Borrower has requested that the Lenders grant a waiver of such Default, and the Lenders have agreed. Accordingly, Lenders hereby waive the provisions of Section 6.19 of the Credit
Agreement as they apply to the period ended June 30, 2010. Also, more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of this Amendment Borrower formed a new Subsidiary, Matrix Service International, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“New Subsidiary”), and prior to the date of this Amendment the Borrower did not provide or cause to be provided to the Agent the documents contemplated by Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement in regard to the New Subsidiary.
Borrower has requested that the Lenders grant a waiver of such Default, and the Lenders have agreed. Accordingly, Lenders hereby waive the provisions of Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement as they apply to the New Subsidiary. These waivers
shall be limited precisely as provided for herein (including without limitation any time periods specified) and none of them shall be deemed to be a waiver of, amendment to, consent to or modification of (i) any other term or provision of the
Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (ii) any other event, condition, or transaction on the part of the Borrower or any other Person which would require the consent of the Agent or any of the Lenders. 

4. Effect of this Amendment. This Amendment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of, amendment to, consent to or modification of any
term or provision of the Credit Agreement or of any term or provision of any of the other Loan Documents, except as specifically set forth herein, and this Amendment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of, amendment to, or consent to or modification
of any event, condition, or transaction on the part of the Borrower or any other Person except as specifically set forth herein.

Date, provided the following conditions precedent are satisfied:

 (e) no authorizations, approvals or
consents of, and no filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person are necessary for the execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower of this Amendment or for the validity or enforceability thereof, other than

 (f) this Amendment
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, and the Ratifications constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Guarantors party thereto,
enforceable against such Guarantors in accordance with their terms, in all cases except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally

In addition to our review of the Documents, we have also examined and relied upon originals or copies of organizational documents and
other records of the Clients as well as such certificates of public officials and officers of the Clients and such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. 

All terms capitalized in this opinion letter without definition have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement. 

In rendering this opinion, we have assumed the following to be true and have conducted no investigation to confirm such assumptions or to
determine to the contrary: 
 A. (i) The authenticity of all documents, instruments and certificates submitted to us as
originals, (ii) the conformity with the original documents of all documents, instruments and certificates submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic or electronic copies, and (iii) the authenticity of the originals from which all
such copies were made. 
 B. All parties to the Documents (other than the Clients) have full power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform their respective obligations under the Documents and under the documents required or permitted to be delivered and performed thereunder, and all such documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action by such parties,
have been fully executed by such parties, have been duly delivered by such parties and are or will be valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such parties. 

C. All signatures on the Documents (other than those on behalf of the Clients) are genuine. 

D. The conduct of the parties to the Documents has and will comply with any requirement of good faith, fair dealing, conscionability and
commercial reasonableness. 
 E. There has not been any mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding, fraud, duress or undue
influence in connection with the Documents. 
 F. Each party to each of the Documents (other than the Clients) is in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or organized. 
 G. The execution, delivery and
performance by each party (other than the Clients) of the Documents does not breach, conflict with or constitute a violation of (i) the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any other charter or organizational document of such party, or
(ii) the laws or governmental rules and regulations of any jurisdiction, or (iii) any agreement, instrument or document to which any such party is a party or by which any such party or any of its properties is bound or (iv) any order,
judgment or decree to which any such party is subject or by which any of its properties is bound. 







 In rendering this opinion, we have relied as to matters of fact, to the extent we deem such
reliance appropriate, without investigation, upon certificates of public officials and upon affidavits, certificates and written statements of officers and employees of the Borrower and Subsidiaries, including the various factual representations of
the Clients set forth in the Documents and the Secretary’s Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Clients of even date herewith. 

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 

l. Each of the Clients (other than Matrix Service Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation, Matrix Service Industrial Contractors ULC, a Nova
Scotia, Canada unlimited liability corporation, and Matrix Service ULC, an Alberta, Canada unlimited liability corporation, as to which no opinion is expressed in this paragraph 1) is a corporation or limited liability company duly and
properly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite corporate or limited liability company authority to conduct its business in each
jurisdiction in which its business is conducted; and each of the Clients is qualified to do business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary or
appropriate, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 2. The execution and
delivery by the Clients of the Documents to which they, or any of them, is a party, and the performance by such Client or Clients, as the case may be, of their respective obligations thereunder, have been duly authorized by proper proceedings on the
part of the respective Clients and do not and will not: 
 (a) require any consent of any of the Clients’
shareholders or members (other than any such consent as has already been given and remains in full force and effect); 

(b) violate (i) any United States or Oklahoma law, rule, or regulation, which, in our experience, would normally
apply to transactions of the type contemplated by the Documents, (ii) any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award of which we have knowledge that is applicable to or binding upon any of the Clients, (iii) any Clients’
articles or certificate of incorporation or organization, by-laws or other organizational documents, as the case may be, or (iv) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement that has either been listed as an exhibit to any periodic
report filed by the Borrower since January 1, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act Documents”), or is otherwise known to us, to which any of the
Clients is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder; or 

(c) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on any of the property of any Client pursuant
to the terms of any indenture, instrument or agreement binding upon any of the Clients that has been filed as an exhibit to any of the Exchange Act Documents or that is otherwise known to us. 







 3. The Documents to which any of the Clients is a party have been duly executed and
delivered by the Clients identified therein as party thereto and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Clients party thereto, enforceable against such Clients in accordance with their terms, except to the extent the enforcement
thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject also to the availability of equitable remedies if equitable remedies are sought. 

4. Except as described in Schedule 3.06 to the Credit Agreement, to our knowledge, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental
investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or threatened against any of the Clients which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or
exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by any Client, is required to be obtained by any Client in connection with the execution and delivery
of the Documents, the borrowings under the Credit Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrower of the Obligations, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Documents. 

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 

(i) The provisions contained in the Documents that permit any person to take action or make determinations, or to benefit from
indemnities or similar undertakings, may be subject to requirements that such action be taken or such determinations be made, or that any action or inaction by such person that may give rise to a request for payment under such an indemnity or
similar undertaking be taken or not taken, on a reasonable basis and in good faith. 
 (ii) Under certain circumstances the
requirements that the provisions of the Documents may be modified or waived only in writing or only in a specific instance may be unenforceable to the extent that an oral agreement has been effected or a course of dealing has occurred modifying such
provisions. 
 (iii) A court may modify or limit contractual awards of attorneys’ fees. 

(iv) We express no opinion with regard to the effect of any (a) federal or state securities and “blue sky” laws and
regulations, (b) federal or state antitrust and unfair competition laws and regulations, (c) federal or state pension and employee benefit laws and regulations, (d) federal or state environmental, subdivision, zoning, health, safety
or land use laws and regulations, (e) federal or state racketeering laws and regulations and banking laws and regulations, and (f) administrative decisions, and rules and regulations of county and municipal political subdivisions.

 (v) With respect to our opinion in paragraph 3 above, we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any Documents
that purport to be governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Oklahoma or that purport to (a) limit or expand remedies beyond those recognized in Oklahoma; (b) give the right of specific performance; (c) alter
rules of civil procedure or evidence; (d) waive defenses or rights; (e) create and govern a trustee or creditor in possession status; (f) create indemnities or exculpate a party from liability for its own wrongful or negligent acts;
(g) authorize the secured party to take discretionary independent action for the account of or as an agent or 







 
attorney-in-fact for the debtor; (h) limit or expand the rights of set-off; (i) guarantee the performance of acts other than payment of money; (j) limit jurisdiction of the courts,
establish any exclusive venue, purport to waive jury trial, or establish evidentiary standards; or (k) provide for the appointment of a receiver without notice. The invalidity or unenforceability of such provisions should not, in our opinion,
substantially interfere with the practical realization of the benefits of the Documents. 
 (vi) We express no opinion with
respect to matters of perfection or priority of liens and security interests in any property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 

(vii) With respect to our opinion in paragraph 5, we express no opinion regarding any filings the Lenders would be required to
make subsequent to foreclosure in connection with the ownership and operation of the Clients’ assets. 
 We have not relied
upon, nor do we undertake for the purpose of this opinion the responsibility to review, the records of any court or administrative or governmental body to determine the existence of any judicial or administrative proceeding, order, decree, writ or
judgment. As to all matters where we refer to “our knowledge” of the existence of any facts, situations or instruments, such knowledge means that after considering the actual knowledge of those attorneys in our firm who have given
substantive attention to the Borrower’s affairs, we find no reason to believe that the opinions expressed above are factually incorrect. 

We are members of the bar of the State of Oklahoma. Our opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of Oklahoma, the
corporate laws of the State of Delaware, the corporate laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the corporate laws of the State of New Jersey, and the federal laws of the United States of America, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning
the laws of any other jurisdiction. To the extent the opinions expressed in paragraphs 2 and 3 above are governed by the laws of a province of Canada, we have assumed that the applicable law in those jurisdictions is the same as the
applicable law in the State of Oklahoma in all relevant respects. 
 The effective date of this opinion is the date first set
forth above, and we do not undertake to advise you of any matter brought to our attention thereafter which would or may modify, in whole or in part, any or all of the foregoing. This opinion is limited to the matters expressly stated herein, and no
opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. 
 This opinion is rendered to the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders who are parties to the Credit Agreement and their respective permitted participants and assigns under the Credit Agreement, is for their sole benefit and may only be relied upon by them. At your request, we
hereby consent to reliance hereon by any future permitted participant, successor or assignee under the Credit Agreement on the condition and with the understanding that (i) this opinion speaks only as of the date hereof, (ii) we have no
responsibility or obligation to update this opinion, to consider its applicability or correctness to any person other than those named in the preceding sentence, or to take into account changes in law, facts or any other developments of which we may
later become aware, and (iii) any such reliance by a future participant, successor or assignee must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of the applicable participation, assignment or transfer, including any
changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by the participant, assignee or transferee at such time. 







 This opinion is not to be quoted in whole or in part or otherwise referred to, nor is it to
be filed with or delivered or communicated to any government agency (other than any government agency with regulatory authority as to any of the Lenders or as may otherwise be required by law) or any other person, without our prior written consent.

  

	
	Very truly yours,
