 “(excluding any borrowing base certificates and information directly relating to delivery of borrowing base certificates, including,
without limitation, collateral reports relating to inventory, receivables and equipment valuations)”

Agreement as in effect on the date of this Amendment or as amended or modified from time to time in compliance with any restrictions set forth in the Financing Documents (and following a reduction in the “Commitments” under and as defined
in the Senior Credit Agreement by 85% or more, with the consent of the Required Holders);” 
 6 Amendment to
Section 9. Section 9 of the Note Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following Section 9.7 as the last section thereof: 
 “9.7 Mandatory Prepayment Upon Asset Dispositions. 
 If any Credit Party shall at any
time or from time to time following the Senior Termination Date: 
 (i) make an Asset Disposition; or 
 (ii) suffer an Event of Loss; 
 and, in each
case, the aggregate Net Proceeds Amount received by such Credit Party in connection with such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss and all other Asset Dispositions and Events of Loss occurring during the fiscal year exceeds the US dollar equivalent of
$2,500,000, then (A) the Company shall promptly notify each holder of Notes of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss (including the estimated Net Proceeds Amount to be received such Credit Party in respect thereof) and (B) promptly upon
receipt by such Credit Party of the Net Proceeds Amount of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss, the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, such Net Proceeds Amount to the holders of Notes as a prepayment of the Notes, which prepayment
shall be allocated in accordance with Section 9.5 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such prepayment shall not be required to the extent the Company or a Subsidiary reinvests
or enters into any binding commitment that 

 
would effect such a reinvestment of the Net Proceeds Amount of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss in productive assets (other than Inventory) of a kind
then used or usable in the business of such Credit Party, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss and in the case of a binding commitment, such funds are reinvested within ninety
(90) days after the date such binding commitment is entered into.” 
 7 Amendment to Section 10.
Section 10 of the Note Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following Sections 10.8, 10.9 and 10.10 as the last sections thereof: 
 “10.8 Cash Management Systems. Subject to Section 10.10, at all times following the Senior Termination Date, the Company will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, enter into, and cause each
depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary to enter into, Control Agreements with respect to any deposit, securities, commodity or similar account maintained by such Person (other than any payroll account, so long as such
payroll account is a zero balance account, and withholding tax and fiduciary accounts). 
 10.9 Landlord Agreements. Subject to
Section 10.10, at all times following the Senior Termination Date, the Company will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord agreement or bailee or mortgagee waivers, as applicable,
from the lessor of each leased property, bailee in possession of any Collateral or mortgagee of any owned property with respect to each location where any Collateral is stored or located, which agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to the Collateral Agent. 
 10.10 Further Assurances; Limitation on Guarantees and Liens. 
 (a) If at any time any Credit Party shall grant the Senior Agent any Lien on any property or asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries to secure
obligations under the Senior Loan Documents, the Company shall, contemporaneously therewith, cause the Collateral Agent to have a perfected security interest in such property or asset, junior only to the Liens of the Senior Agent under the Senior
Loan Documents and the Liens permitted under Section 11.5. 
 (b) The Company will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, ensure
that all written information, exhibits, and reports furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any other Credit Party to the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers do not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact when made and do not
and will not omit to state any material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and will promptly disclose to the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers and correct any
material defect or material error that may be discovered therein or in any Financing Document or in the execution, acknowledgement or recordation thereof. 

 (c) Promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent, the Company will (and, subject to the limitations
hereinafter set forth and set forth in the Collateral Documents, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) take such additional actions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require from time to time in order (i) to carry out more effectively
the purposes of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, (ii) to subject to the Liens created by any of the Collateral Documents any of the properties, rights or interests in which any Lien is granted pursuant to any of the Collateral
Documents, (iii) to perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any of the Collateral Documents and the Liens intended to be created thereby, and (iv) to better assure, convey, grant, assign, transfer, preserve,
protect and confirm to the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers the rights granted or now or hereafter intended to be granted to the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers under any Financing Document or under any other document executed in connection
therewith. 
 (d) In connection with each pledge of Stock and Stock Equivalents, the Company will cause the Credit Parties to deliver to the
Senior Agent, irrevocable proxies and stock powers and/or assignments, as applicable, duly executed in blank. In connection with each Mortgage, the Company shall cause the Credit Parties to execute and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent, a fully
executed Mortgage substantially in the same form as delivered to the Senior Agent together with an A.L.T.A. lender’s title insurance policy issued by a title insurer insuring that the Mortgage is a valid and enforceable Lien on the respective
property, junior only to the Liens of the Senior Agent under the Senior Loan Documents, and otherwise in substantially the same form delivered to the Senior Agent, and copies of A.L.T.A. surveys and environmental site assessments delivered to the
Senior Agent. 
 (e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if at any time any Credit Party shall cause a Subsidiary to guaranty
any obligations under the Senior Loan Documents or grant the Senior Agent any Lien on its property to secure such obligations, the Company shall, contemporaneously therewith, cause such Subsidiary to become a party to the Guaranty and Security
Agreement and a Credit Party hereunder.” 
 8 Amendment to Section 10.2. Section 10.2 of
the Note Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding “(a)” at the beginning thereof and the adding the following clauses (b) and (c) as the last clauses thereof: 
 “(b) The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, cause all insurance relating to any Collateral of any Credit Party to name the
Collateral Agent as additional insured or loss payee, as its interests may appear, in each case subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreement, as appropriate. All policies of insurance on real and personal property of the Credit Parties will
contain an endorsement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, showing loss payable to the Collateral Agent (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) and extra expense and business interruption endorsements. Unless otherwise agreed
by the Collateral Agent, such Credit Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to the Collateral Agent, will provide that the insurance companies will give the Collateral
Agent at least 30 days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered or cancelled and that no act or default of the Credit 

 
Parties or any other Person shall affect the right of the Collateral Agent to recover, subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreement, under such policy
or policies of insurance in case of loss or damage. Following the Senior Termination Date, such Credit Party shall direct all present and future insurers under its “All Risk” policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder
directly to the Collateral Agent. Following the Senior Termination Date, if any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Credit Party and the Collateral Agent jointly, the Collateral Agent may endorse such
Credit Party’s name thereon and do such other things as the Collateral Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Following the Senior Termination Date, the Collateral Agent reserves the right at any time, upon review of each Credit
Party’s risk profile, to require additional forms and limits of insurance. 
 (c) Unless the Company provides the Collateral Agent with
evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may (until the Senior Termination Date, with the written consent of the Senior Agent) purchase
insurance at the Credit Parties’ expense to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the Purchasers’ interests in the properties of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries. Such insurance may, but need not, protect the interests of the
Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries. The coverage that the Collateral Agent purchases may provide that such coverage will not pay any claim that any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party makes or any claim that is made against such
Credit Party of any Subsidiary in connection with such coverage. The Company may later cancel any insurance purchased by the Collateral Agent, but only after providing the Collateral Agent with evidence that insurance as required by this Agreement
has been obtained. If the Collateral Agent purchases any such insurance, the Credit Parties will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges the Collateral Agent may impose in connection with the
placement or such insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of any such insurance shall be added to the Obligations. The costs of any such insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the
Credit Parties may be able to obtain on their own.” 
 9 Amendment to Section 11.
Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following Section 11.10 as the last section thereof: 
 11.10 No Negative Pledges. 
 “(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly,
enter into, assume or become subject to any Contractual Obligation prohibiting the existence of any Lien upon any of its assets in favor of the Collateral Agent, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the
following encumbrances or restrictions shall be permitted: (i) encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (A) this Agreement and the other Financing Documents; (B) Indebtedness permitted by Section 11.3;
(C) customary provisions restricting subletting or assignment of any lease governing a leasehold interest; (D) customary provisions restricting assignment of any agreement entered into by a Subsidiary of the Company in 

 
the Ordinary Course of Business; (E) any holder of a Lien permitted by Section 11.5 restricting the transfer of the property subject thereto;
(F) customary restrictions or conditions contained in any agreement relating to the sale of any property permitted under Section 11.6 pending the consummation of such sale, (G) in the case of a Joint Venture, restrictions in such
person’s organization documents or pursuant to any joint venture agreement or stockholders’ agreements solely to the extent of the Stock or Stock Equivalents of or property held in the subject Joint Venture, (H) the Senior Loan
Documents, and (I) any agreement in effect on the Second Amendment Effective Date and set forth on Schedule 11.10; or (ii) any encumbrances or restrictions imposed by any amendments or refinancings that are otherwise permitted by the
Financing Documents or the agreements referred to in clause (i) above; provided that such amendments or refinancings are no more restrictive with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those prior to such amendment or refinancing.

 (b) The Company will not, and will not permit any Credit Party to, issue any Stock or Stock Equivalents and pledge such Stock or Stock
Equivalents to the Senior Agent under the Senior Loan Documents unless such Stock and Stock Equivalents are pledged to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Obligations, on substantially the same terms and
conditions as the Stock and Stock Equivalents are pledged to the Senior Agent under the Senior Loan Documents.”

property, and, in each case, any refinancing of any of the foregoing Indebtedness; provided further, that in the case of each of the foregoing, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all such Indebtedness (together with such Indebtedness of
Project Subsidiaries) shall not exceed at any time $15,000,000;”

that is non-recourse to the Company and is non-recourse to each of the Company’s other Subsidiaries (other than to a Project Subsidiary Holding Company that owns, directly or indirectly, the Stock of such Project Subsidiaries) and does not
