other interest in any Existing Notes (each, a “Transfer”), unless the transferee thereof either (i) is a Supporting Holder and agrees to exchange such additional Existing Notes and deliver related consents in the
Exchange Offer, or (ii) prior to such Transfer, agrees in writing for the benefit of the other Parties to become a Supporting Holder and to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement with respect to such acquired Existing Notes by executing
the joinder in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Joinder Agreement”), and delivering an executed copy thereof, within five business days of closing of such Transfer, to counsel to SAE and
counsel to the Supporting Holders, as listed in Section 9.11 hereof, in which event the transferee (including a Supporting Holder transferee, if applicable) shall be deemed to be a Supporting Holder under this Agreement with respect to such
transferred rights, claims, and obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Supporting Holder may Transfer any or all of its Existing Notes to any entity that, as of the date of the Transfer,


  
 -14-

Holder with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such Existing Notes (with the understanding that the Qualified Marketmaker will agree at the time of such acquisition to the terms of this paragraph), shall not be required

capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may Transfer any ownership interests in the Existing Notes that it acquires from an Existing Holder that is not or has not been a Supporting Holder to a transferee that is not a Supporting Holder at the time
of such Transfer without the requirement that the transferee be or become a signatory to this Agreement or execute a Joinder Agreement. 
 As used herein,
“Qualified Marketmaker”) means an entity that (a) holds itself out to the public or applicable private markets as standing ready in the ordinary course of business to purchase from customers and sell to customers claims
against SAE (or enter with customers into long and short positions in claims against SAE), in its capacity as a dealer or marketmaker in claims against SAE and (b) is, in fact, regularly in the business of making a market in claims against issuers
or borrowers (including debt securities or other debt).

provided, however, that any waiver, change, modification, or amendment to this Agreement that materially and adversely affects the economic interests of any Supporting Holder may not be made without the written consent of each such
affected Supporting Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification, amendment or alteration shall be made to (a) the material terms of the New Term Loan Facility and the New Second Lien Notes, (b) the equity allocations set forth on
Schedule 3 of the Term Sheet, or (d) the material economic terms of the Exchange Offer without the consent of each Supporting Holder.

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act.

	 	•	 	on or before July 1, 2016 (such date, the “Funding Date”), the parties shall obtain (i) any consents required from Existing Holders to amend the Existing Notes Indenture, existing security
documents and existing intercreditor agreement (as summarized below under “Consent Solicitation”) and (ii) such waivers, consents or amendments to the Revolving Credit Facility from Wells Fargo, N.A., as lender under the Revolving Credit
Facility, in both cases, as necessary to give effect to and permit the Restructuring referred to herein. Upon receipt of such consents and amendments or waivers, (1) the Supporting Holders and any other Participating Holders (together, the
“New Senior Lenders”) shall enter into the New Senior Loan Facility with the Company on the terms set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, in connection with which the New Senior Lenders shall receive, subject to
the terms and conditions described in Schedule 1, shares of Common Stock of the Company (together with the Backstop Shares (as defined in Schedule 1 hereto), the “New Senior Loan Shares”), equal to 28.20% of the
total outstanding Common Stock of the Company on the Closing Date, on a fully diluted basis, as set forth in Schedule 3 hereto, (2) the Initial Draw (as defined in Schedule 1) shall occur, and (3) the Company and the trustee and collateral

Holders shall agree to forbear, if necessary, from exercising remedies in respect thereof for a period extending to August 15, 2016 to allow the Restructuring to be consummated; and 


  
 2 








	 	•	 	existing holders of the Company’s Common Stock shall retain, on a pro rata basis after giving effect to the Restructuring, shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to 1.32% of the total outstanding Common Stock
of the Company on the Closing Date, on a fully diluted basis, as set forth in Schedule 3. 

  

	 	It is anticipated that the Exchange Offer will close, and that the New Senior Loan Shares and the New Note Shares will be issued, on the date that is intended to be no later than 30 days after the Launch Date (assuming
no amendments and/or extensions of the offer period) (the “Closing Date”). 

  

	 	The New Senior Loan Shares and the New Notes Shares shall be subject to mutual dilution and shall, together with shares issued under the Management Incentive Plan (as defined below), dilute the existing Common Stock of
the Company. The New Senior Loan Shares and the New Notes Shares shall not be dilutive to the Management Incentive Plan. Schedule 3 presents the allocation of the Company’s Common Stock as of the Funding Date, on an as-issued
basis, and the allocation of the Company’s Common Stock as of the Closing Date. 

  

	 	In connection with the Restructuring, on the Closing Date, the Company will: 

  

	 	•	 	enter into new amended employment agreements with the Company’s senior management (Jeff Hastings, Brian Beatty, Brent Whitely, Mike Scott, Darin Silvernagle, Trisha Gerber and Ryan Abney), as described below;


  

	 	•	 	adopt the Management Incentive Plan, as described below; and 

  

	 	•	 	issue Warrants to existing holders of the Company’s Common Stock, as described below.

	 The Exchange Offer 
	Eligible Existing Holders will be offered an opportunity to participate pro rata in the exchange offer for the Existing Notes (together, the “Exchange Offer”), pursuant to which each participating Existing Holder (the
“Participating Holders”) shall receive, on the Closing Date, for every $1,000 principal amount of Existing Notes tendered for exchange (subject to a minimum tender of $2,000 principal amount and in $1,000 increments in excess
thereof): 

  

	 	•	 	$500 principal amount of New Second Lien Notes, which shall have terms substantially similar to the Existing Notes; provided that (1) the New Second Lien Notes shall have a maturity date of September 24, 2019,
provided that, if any of the Existing Notes remain outstanding as of March 31, 2019, the maturity date of the New Second Lien Notes will become April 14, 2019 upon the vote of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding New Second
Lien Notes, (2) the liens securing the New Second Lien Notes shall be junior to the liens securing the New Senior Loan Facility and senior to the liens securing the Existing Notes after the Closing Date, (3) the Company may elect to pay
interest on the New Second Lien Notes in kind with additional New Second Lien Notes for the first twelve months of interest payment dates following the Closing Date, provided that, if the Company makes this election, the interest on the New Second
Lien Notes for such in kind payments will accrue at a per annum rate 100 basis points higher than the cash interest rate, (4) the definition of “Permitted Holders” for purposes of the Change of Control covenant will include the
Supporting Holders and their related parties, (5) the New Second Lien Notes will have a special redemption right at par of up to $35 million of the issuance to be paid out of the proceeds of the Alaska tax credit certificates and shall be
conditioned upon payment in full of the Revolving Credit Facility and the New Senior Loan Facility, and (6) the New Second Lien Notes shall include a make-whole provision requiring that if the New Second Lien Notes are accelerated or otherwise
become due and payable prior to their stated maturity due to an Event of Default (including but not limited to a bankruptcy or liquidation of the Company (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), then the Applicable Premium
payable with respect to an optional redemption will also be immediately due and payable, along with the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest on, the notes and shall constitute part of the obligations in respect thereof as if such
acceleration were an optional redemption of the notes, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each holder’s lost profits as
a result thereof; and

  

	 	•	 	a pro rata portion the New Notes Shares, collectively representing 64.48% of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Company on the Closing Date, on a fully diluted basis, as set forth in Schedule 3.


  

	 	The indenture for the New Second Lien Notes shall include the following additional language in respect of the make-whole:

  

	 	“Any Applicable Premium payable shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each holder as the result of the early redemption and the Company agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances
currently existing. The Applicable Premium shall also be payable in the event the New Second Lien Notes (and/or the Indenture) are satisfied or released by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or any other means. The Company expressly waives (to
the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) the provisions of any present or future statute or law that prohibits or may prohibit the collection of the foregoing Applicable Premium in connection with any such acceleration. The Company expressly
agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the
Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between holders and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such
agreement to pay the premium; and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Applicable Premium to Holders as
herein described is a material inducement to holders to purchase the Notes. The Applicable Premium shall constitute part of the holders’ claim in respect of the New Second Lien Notes in the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation, and such
claim shall be allowed against the debtors without the need to file a proof of claim. 

  

	 	The calculation of the Applicable Premium shall be the same as that appearing in the Existing Notes Indenture, except that the discount rate will be based on Treasuries plus 25 basis points.” 


 

	 	The Restructuring will be conditioned on participation in the Exchange Offer by Existing Holders holding at least 90% of the Existing Notes outstanding as of the date of this Term Sheet. The Participating Holders shall
deliver consents to the amendments to the Existing Notes Indenture as described below under “Consent Solicitation.” 

  

	 	Pursuant to, and subject to the terms of, the RSA, the Supporting Holders shall agree to participate in the Exchange Offer for the full amount of their Existing Notes, to deliver consents to amend the Existing Notes
Indenture and to waive withdrawal rights with respect to their tendered Existing Notes and related Consents, each as described below under “Consent Solicitation.” 


  
 4 








	 Consent Solicitation 
	In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company will seek consents from Participating Holders to: 

  

	 	•	 	amend the Existing Notes Indenture (the “Consent Solicitation”) to: 

  

	 	•	 	waive the applicable change of control provisions; 

  

	 	•	 	permit the entry into, and incurrence of draws pursuant to, the New Senior Loan Facility on the Funding Date and the issuance of the New Second Lien Notes (including any additional New Second Lien Notes issued in lieu
of cash interest payments) by amending the Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock and Liens covenants; 

  

	 	•	 	amend the definition of “Permitted Holders” for purposes of the Change of Control covenant to include the Supporting Holders and their related parties; and 


 

	 	•	 	amend the Payments for Consents and Transactions with Affiliates covenants in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Term Sheet; 


 

	 	•	 	amend the security documents relating to the Existing Notes to give effect to the Term Sheet, including to consent to full subordination of the liens securing the Existing Notes to the New Senior Loan Facility and the
New Second Lien Notes; and 

  

	 	•	 	amend and restate the existing intercreditor agreement to account for the entry into the New Senior Loan Facility on the Funding Date, the New Second Lien Notes and the related liens and the relative lien priorities of
the Revolving Credit Facility, the New Senior Loan Facility, the New Second Lien Notes and the Existing Notes as contemplated by Schedule 1. 

  

	 	In order to tender Existing Notes for exchange in the Exchange Offer, Participating Holders shall be required to deliver consents in the Consent Solicitation. Supporting Holders’ participation in the Exchange Offer
and Consent Solicitation will occur at the launch of the deal and Supporting Holders shall, subject to the terms of the RSA, waive withdrawal rights with respect to tendered Existing Notes and the related Consents, with the effect that, the Company
and the trustee for the Existing Notes Indenture shall be able to enter into a supplemental indenture to permit the entry into the New Senior Loan Facility and related matters on the Funding Date. 


 

	 Amendment of the Revolving Credit Facility 
	The Revolving Credit Facility shall remain in place; provided that consummation of the New Senior Loan Facility shall be subject to obtaining the necessary consents or waivers from Wells Fargo (as discussed below). 


  
 5 








	 Management Incentive Plan 
	On the Closing Date, the Company shall adopt a management incentive plan (the “Management Incentive Plan”), which shall reserve 10%, on a fully diluted basis, of the total shares of common stock outstanding as of the
Closing Date (the “MIP Shares”) for distribution to covered employees on terms to be agreed with senior management. The Management Incentive Plan shall supersede any prior management or employee stock compensation plan of the
Company in effect on the Closing Date. Senior management shall receive 60% of the MIP Shares on the Closing Date, of which 1/3 shall vest on each of (1) the earlier of (a) the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (b) the date the Company shall
have received Alaskan tax credit certificates in a face amount of at least $25 million (the “Tax Credit”), and (2) each anniversary of the Closing Date for the two years thereafter in the form of: 


 

	 	     (i) shares equal to 3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of the Closing Date on a fully diluted basis; and 


 

	 	     (ii) at-the-money incentive options to acquire shares equal to 3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of the Closing Date, based on an equity value (a) if options are
initially distributed on the first anniversary of the Closing Date or after the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date due to the receipt of the Tax Credit (the “Tax Credit Valuation Date”), the volume-weighted average
price (the “VWAP”) per share of SAE Common Stock during the 30-day period ending on the date that is the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date or (b) if options are initially distributed due to the receipt of the Tax
Credit prior to the 60th calendar date following the Closing Date, the VWAP per share of SAE Common Stock during the 30-day period ending on the date one day preceding any public announcement of the Tax Credit
Valuation Date; provided, however, that if the Tax Credit Valuation Date occurs before the expiration of 30 days following the Closing Date, then the VWAP calculation period shall be the number of days between the Closing Date and the Tax
Credit Valuation Date. 

  

	 	If any member of senior management terminates his or her employment without good reason within the first twelve months after the Closing Date, that employee’s vested MIP Shares or the cash proceeds thereof will be
clawed back. 

  

	 	The remaining 40% of MIP Shares shall be granted to members of management and other key employees and distributed according to a vesting schedule to be determined by the New Board, provided, however, that the MIP
Shares may not be used to fund any of the Annual Performance Awards (as defined in Schedule 4). 

  

	 Warrants 
	In connection with the Restructuring, the Company will enter into, as of the Closing Date, a warrant agreement with its transfer agent, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”), that shall provide for the issuance of
warrants in two series to all existing holders of Common Stock that, upon exercise, will each represent 2.25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Closing Date, subject to dilution by the New Loan Shares and the MIP Shares, at an
exercise price to reflect market capitalizations of $112 million and $140 million, respectively, with five year terms (“Warrants”). The Warrant Agreement will contain customary cashless exercise and anti-dilution provisions.



  
 6 








	 	The Warrants will not become exercisable until 30 days before their expiration date. In addition, it shall be a condition precedent to any exercise that the Company shall have received Alaska tax credit
certificates in a face amount of at least $25 million. 

  

	 	Holders of the Warrants will be entitled to the benefit of a customary resale registration rights agreement. 

  

	 Treatment of Existing Equity Holders 
	In connection with the Restructuring, existing holders of Common Stock will retain 1.32% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, as of the Closing Date, provided that these shares shall be subject to dilution
by the subsequent issuance of the remaining 40% of the MIP Shares. 

  

	 Employment Agreements 
	On the Closing Date, the Company shall enter into new amended employment agreements with the Company’s senior management (Jeff Hastings, Brian Beatty, Brent Whiteley, Mike Scott, Darin Silvernagle, Trisha Gerber and Ryan Abney), to reflect
the material terms and conditions set forth on Schedule 4 hereto. 

  

	 New Board 
	As of the Closing Date, the Company’s board of directors (the “New Board”) shall consist of 7 members, one of whom shall be a member of senior management appointed by the Company. The remaining 6 directors shall be
selected by the Supporting Holders in their sole discretion; provided that the Supporting Holders shall consult in good faith with the Company’s management in the selection thereof; provided, further, that a sufficient
number of independent directors will be selected to comply with any applicable listing requirements. 

  

	 Amended Articles & Bylaws 
	As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, the Company’s existing articles and bylaws will be subject to customary amendments and modifications to be agreed upon in the RSA. 


 

	 Public Status; Listing 
	The Company shall remain an SEC-registered public company and shall file reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to comply with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market, as applicable. 

  

	 	The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to receive the requisite shareholder votes to affect the Restructuring, to the extent required by its charter, other corporate governance documents and
applicable law. 


  
 7 








	 Closing Conditions 
	The effectiveness of the Restructuring shall be conditioned upon the absence of any material business, regulatory or legal impediments thereto, as determined by the Supporting Holders in their reasonable discretion, and shall be subject to
customary closing conditions, including, without limitation:

	 	•	 	participation by holders of 90% of the outstanding Existing Notes in the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation; 

  

	 	•	 	no success fee shall be payable to a financial advisor, if any, to the Company, except on terms reasonably acceptable to the Supporting Holders; 


 

	 	•	 	receipt of any necessary amendments and/or waivers from the lender under the Revolving Credit Facility to permit the Restructuring; and 


 

	 	•	 	payment of all fees and expenses incurred by the Supporting Holders.

  

	 Fiduciary Out / Shop Right 
	The Company may terminate this Term Sheet or the RSA upon three business days’ prior notice if the board of directors of the Company determines, after receiving advice from counsel, that proceeding with the Restructuring would be
inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties. Notwithstanding anything in this Term Sheet or the RSA to the contrary, nothing in this Term Sheet or the RSA shall prevent the Company from taking or failing to take any action that it is
obligated to take (or to fail to take) in the performance of any fiduciary duty or as otherwise required by applicable law which the Company owes to any other person or entity under applicable law. 


 

	 Fees and Expenses 
	The Company shall pay promptly all accrued and unpaid fees and expenses of the Supporting Holders and any agent or trustee under the various debt documents in connection with the Restructuring (whether or not the Restructuring is consummated)
including, without limitation, the costs and expenses incurred by counsel to the Supporting Holders in connection with the Restructuring. 

  

	 Reservation of Rights 
	Nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair or restrict the ability of each of the Company and the Supporting Holders to protect and fully preserve all of their rights, remedies, claims and interests, including the
Supporting Holders’ claims against the Company or any other party in interest or their respective property. If the Restructuring is not consummated, the Company and the Supporting Holders fully reserve any and all of their respective rights.


  

	 No Admission 
	Nothing in the Term Sheet is or shall be deemed to be an admission of fact or liability or deemed binding on the Company or the Supporting Holders.

	Base Salary	  	No changes to 2016 base salary under the current employment agreements. Starting in 2017, annual increases in base salary will be set by the new board of directors (the “New Board”), provided that the New
Board may not unilaterally decrease the base salary at any point without the consent of the executive.

Amendments to Employment Agreements 






 Amendments to Employment Agreements 

Capitalized Terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement. 

 

			
	 Topic
	  	 Amendment

	Term	  	New three-year terms, starting as of the Closing Date, with evergreen features providing for successive one year terms as contained in the current employment agreements.
		
	Base Salary	  	No changes to 2016 base salary under the current employment agreements. Starting in 2017, annual increases in base salary will be set by the new board of directors (the “New Board”), provided that the New
Board may not unilaterally decrease the base salary at any point without the consent of the executive.
		
	Annual Cash Performance Award	  	No change to 2016 amounts, targets, calculation, or methodology under the current employment agreements. Starting in 2017, the New Board can set Executive Goals but not the Target Percentages (as defined in the employment
agreements). In addition, no more than 50% of any award may be in Common Stock.
		
	Existing Management/Employee Equity	  	All issued equity compensation (LTIP shares, preferred shares, etc.) shall vest and convert into common shares immediately prior to the Closing Date and be treated as existing equity subject to dilution pursuant to the Term
Sheet.
		
	Existing MIP	  	All existing equity-based compensation programs shall be replaced by the Management Incentive Plan.
		
	Severance	  	No change to existing severance package under the current employment agreements; however, executives shall not be entitled to any severance if the executive voluntarily terminates the employment agreement other than for cause or
good reason.
		
	Non-compete	  	The non-compete shall last for one year with no additional severance, with the option to extend for an additional year in the Company’s sole discretion, provided that the Company must pay the executive one year’s base
salary and 100% of the target bonus of that base salary if it elects to extend.
		
	Change of Control	  	Waived to allow for the Restructuring Transactions.
		
	280G Gross-Up	  	To be deleted.
		
	Constructive Dismissal	  	Revision to the definition of “Good Reason” in the current employment agreements to reflect that the New Board will have discretion to set base salary increases and annual bonuses and such adjustments will not constitute
Good Reason, provided that the New Board may not unilaterally decrease the base salary at any point without the consent of the executive.








			
	 Topic
	  	 Amendment

	Indemnification	  	Employment agreements shall include indemnification by the Company against any officer or director liability related to the Restructuring Transactions.

 Exhibit F 

Terms of Management Incentive Plan 






 Preliminary Management Incentive Plan Term Sheet 

This management incentive plan term sheet sets forth an outline of certain key terms and conditions of the employment agreements between SAExploration
Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain key executives set forth on Exhibit E. Capitalized Terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement. 

On the Closing Date, the Company shall adopt the Management Incentive Plan, which shall reserve 10%, on a fully diluted basis, of the total shares of common
stock outstanding as of the Closing Date (the “MIP Shares”) for distribution to covered employees on terms to be agreed with senior management. The Management Incentive Plan shall supersede any prior management or employee
stock compensation plan of the Company in effect on the Closing Date. Senior management shall receive 60% of the MIP Shares on the Closing Date, of which 1/3 shall vest on each of (1) the earlier of (a) the first anniversary of the Closing Date and
(b) the date the Company shall have received Alaskan tax credit certificates in a face amount of at least $25 million (the “Tax Credit”), and (2) each anniversary of the Closing Date for the two years thereafter in the form
of: 
 (i) shares equal to 3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of the Closing Date on a fully diluted basis; and 

(ii) at-the-money incentive options to acquire shares equal to 3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of the Closing Date, based
on an equity value (a) if options are initially distributed on the first anniversary of the Closing Date or after the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date due to the receipt of the Tax Credit (the “Tax Credit Valuation
Date”), the volume-weighted average price (the “VWAP”) per share of SAE Common Stock during the 30-day period ending on the date that is the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date or (b) if options are
initially distributed due to the receipt of the Tax Credit prior to the 60th calendar date following the Closing Date, the VWAP per share of SAE Common Stock during the 30-day period ending on the date one day preceding any public announcement of
the Tax Credit Valuation Date; provided, however, that if the Tax Credit Valuation Date occurs before the expiration of 30 days following the Closing Date, then the VWAP calculation period shall be the number of days between the Closing Date
and the Tax Credit Valuation Date. 
 If any member of senior management terminates his or her employment without good reason within the first twelve months
after the Closing Date, that employee’s vested MIP Shares or the cash proceeds thereof will be clawed back. 
 The remaining 40% of MIP Shares shall be
granted to members of management and other key employees and distributed according to a vesting schedule to be determined by the New Board, provided, however, that the MIP Shares may not be used to fund any of the Annual Performance
Awards as defined in Schedule 4 to the Term Sheet attached as Exhibit A. 
 Vesting of the MIP Shares will not be conditioned on
any financial, operating or other performance metrics. Except for termination due to death, disability, termination without cause, termination for good reason or termination six (6) months prior to or within 12 months following a change in control,
individuals need to be employed on each vesting date to receive settlement of the MIP Shares.
