 BACKGROUND 

A. The Existing Borrowers and Lender entered into that certain Credit and Security Agreement dated as of December 10, 2010, as
amended by that certain First Amendment and Joinder to Credit and Security Agreement dated as of October 28, 2011 (as may be amended, modified, extended, or restated from time to time, the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender
extended certain financing arrangements to the Existing Borrowers. 
 B. The parties hereto have agreed to modify the terms and
conditions of the Agreement as more fully set forth herein. 
 C. The New Borrower agrees that it will be a Borrower for all
applicable purposes under the Agreement and shall have all of the obligations and benefits of a Borrower thereunder as if it had executed the Agreement. 
 D. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreement. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions and covenants set forth below, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be
legally bound hereby, promise and agree as follows: 
 1. Amendment to Section 1.2 (General Terms).
Section 1.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by (a) adding the following definitions of “Commodity Exchange Act”, “Excluded Swap Obligation”, “Second Amendment Effective Date”,
and “Swap Obligation” thereto in proper alphabetical order and (b) deleting the definitions of “Borrowers”, “Material Business Agreement” and “Obligations” in their entirety
and replacing them with the following: 
 “Borrower” and “Borrowers” shall mean, individually
or collectively, as the context may require, SIFCO Industries, Inc., SIFCO Custom Machining Company, SIFCO Turbine Components Services, LLC, T & W Forge, LLC (F/K/A TWF Acquisition, LLC), Quality Aluminum Forge, LLC (F/K/A Forge Acquisition,
LLC), General Aluminum Forgings, LLC, and any other Person who may hereafter become a party hereto as a Borrower. 

“Commodity Exchange Act” shall mean the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time,
and any successor statute. 
 “Excluded Swap Obligation” shall mean, with respect to any guarantor of a Swap
Obligation, including the grant of a security interest to secure the guaranty of such Swap Obligation, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, such Swap Obligation is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule,
regulation or order of the Commodity Futures 







 
Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such guarantor’s failure for any reason to constitute an “eligible contract
participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder at the time the guaranty or grant of such security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a
master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such Swap Obligation or security interest is or becomes illegal. 

“Material Business Agreement” shall mean any agreement that if terminated, rescinded or breached would have a Material
Adverse Effect on any Loan Party. 
 “Obligations” shall mean and include any and all loans, advances, debts,
liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties (absolute, contingent, matured or unmatured) owing by the Loan Parties to the Lender or the Issuer or to any other direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of the Issuer or the Lender of any kind or
nature, present or future (including any interest accruing thereon after maturity, or after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to any Loan Party, whether or not
a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), whether or not evidenced by any note, guaranty or other instrument, whether arising under any agreement, instrument or document (including the Loan Documents), whether
or not for the payment of money, whether arising by reason of an extension of credit, opening of a letter of credit, loan, equipment lease or guarantee, or in connection with any commercial credit cards, stored value cards, procurement cards, Fifth
Third Bank multi-cards, cash management or treasury administration services or in any other manner, whether arising out of overdrafts or deposit or other accounts or electronic funds transfers (whether through automated clearing houses or otherwise)
or out of the Issuer’s or the Lender’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with depository transfer check or other similar arrangements, whether direct or indirect (including those
acquired by assignment or participation), absolute or contingent, joint or several, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, contractual or tortious, liquidated or unliquidated, regardless of how such indebtedness or liabilities
arise or by what agreement or instrument they may be evidenced or whether evidenced by any agreement or instrument, including any and all of any Loan Party’s Indebtedness and/or liabilities under the Loan Documents or under any other agreement
between the Issuer or the Lender and any Loan Party, including all Rate Management Obligations, and any amendments, extensions, renewals or increases and all costs and expenses of the Lender and the Issuer incurred in the documentation, negotiation,
modification, enforcement, collection or otherwise in connection with any of the foregoing, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and all obligations of any Loan Party to the Lender or the Issuer to perform acts or refrain from
taking any action; provided that Excluded Swap Obligations shall not at any time be included or considered to be “Obligations”. 
 “Second Amendment Effective Date” shall mean July 23, 2013. 

“Swap Obligation” shall mean any hedging obligation or Rate Management Obligation that constitutes a “swap”
within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended from time to time. 







 2. Amendment to Section 2.12 (Use of Proceeds). Section 2.12 of the
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 2.12 Use of
Proceeds. The Borrowers shall apply the proceeds of Advances (a) to provide capital to fund SIFCO’s acquisition of the assets of GEL Industries, Inc. (DBA Quality Aluminum Forge), (b) to provide capital to fund General
Aluminum Forgings, LLC’s acquisition of the assets of MW General, Inc. (DBA General Aluminum Forgings); (c) to pay fees and expenses relating to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (d) for general corporate purposes, and
(e) to provide for working capital needs. 
 3. Amendment to Exhibits. Exhibit B and Exhibit C
attached to the Agreement are hereby amended by deleting them in their entirety and replacing them with Exhibit B and Exhibit C attached hereto. 
 4. Consent. Borrower has advised Lender that: (a) QAF desires to form the New Borrower as a new, wholly-owned Subsidiary of QAF; (b) the New Borrower desires to acquire certain assets of
MW General, Inc. (DBA General Aluminum Forgings) pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Documents (as hereinafter defined); and (c) in connection with such acquisition, SIFCO will guaranty certain lease obligations of the New Borrower
(collectively, the “Transaction”). The Transaction is currently prohibited by Section 7.1 (Mergers, Consolidation, Acquisition and Sale of Assets), Section 7.3 (Guarantees), and Section 7.11 (Subsidiaries; Partnerships), in
each case, of the Agreement. Borrower has requested that Lender consent to the Transaction and to waive certain restrictions contained in the Agreement in connection therewith. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, Lender hereby
consents to the Transaction and waives the restrictions contained in Section 7.1, 7.3, and 7.11 of the Agreement. Borrower hereby accepts such consent and waiver subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment. The consent and waiver
contained herein is a one-time consent and waiver related specifically to the Transaction and shall not constitute a course of conduct or imply a future waiver of any provision of the Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Nothing contained in this
Amendment shall in any way constitute or be construed as a waiver by Lender or the Issuer of any of the rights and remedies available under the Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or applicable law, or be deemed to constitute or create a course
of dealing between Borrower, the Loan Parties, Lender or Issuer that may obligate or restrict Lender or Issuer in any manner with respect to their future and current dealings with Borrower or the Loan Parties. 

5. Expenses. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Amendment, including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees. 
 6. Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall be effective upon

	 	(d)	The New Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to time it will execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts as Lender may reasonably
request in writing in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement in order to affect the purposes of this Amendment.

security interests and liens granted to Lender in all existing and future assets of Borrower remain unimpaired and in full force and effect and shall continue to cover and secure all Obligations. Borrower further confirms and represents that all of
the collateral of Borrower remains free and clear of all liens other than those in favor of Lender or as otherwise permitted in the Agreement. Nothing contained herein is intended to in any way impair or limit the validity, priority or extent of

OR MIGHT ASSERT NOW OR IN THE FUTURE AGAINST LENDER AND/OR ITS RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS, ACCOUNTANTS, CONSULTANTS, SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS (INDIVIDUALLY, A “RELEASEE” AND COLLECTIVELY, THE
“RELEASEES”), DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISING OUT OF, BASED UPON, OR IN ANY MANNER CONNECTED WITH (A) ANY TRANSACTION, EVENT, CIRCUMSTANCE, ACTION, FAILURE TO ACT, OR OCCURRENCE OF ANY SORT OR TYPE, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, WHICH
OCCURRED, EXISTED, OR WAS TAKEN OR PERMITTED PRIOR TO THE EXECUTION OF THIS AMENDMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS, THE AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF, (B) ANY DISCUSSIONS, COMMITMENTS, NEGOTIATIONS,
CONVERSATIONS, OR COMMUNICATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS OR (C) ANY THING OR MATTER RELATED TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING PRIOR TO THE EXECUTION OF THIS AMENDMENT. THE INCLUSION OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN THIS AMENDMENT AND THE EXECUTION OF THIS
AMENDMENT BY LENDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT OR ADMISSION BY LENDER OF LIABILITY FOR ANY MATTER, OR A PRECEDENT UPON WHICH ANY LIABILITY MAY BE ASSERTED. 
 12. Non-Waiver. This Amendment does not obligate Lender to agree to any other extension or modification of the Agreement nor does it constitute a course of conduct or dealing on behalf of Lender or
a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Lender. No omission or delay by Lender in exercising any right or power under the Agreement, this Amendment or any related instruments, agreements or documents will impair such right or power or be
construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or power will not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no
waiver will be valid unless in writing and then only to the extent specified. 
 13. Incorporation. This Amendment is
incorporated by reference into, and made part of, the Agreement which, except as expressly modified herein, remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. 
 14. No Modification. No modification of this Amendment or of any agreement referred to herein shall be binding or enforceable unless in writing and signed on behalf of the party against whom

will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 
 17.
Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, excluding the provisions related to conflicts of laws. 







 18. Severability. The provisions of this Amendment are to be deemed severable, and
the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect or impair the remaining provisions which shall continue in full force and effect. 
 19. Counterparts, Facsimile and .pdf. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signature by facsimile or .pdf shall have the same force and effect as an original signature hereto.
