dated as of June 29, 2018, that certain Waiver and Second Amendment thereto, dated as of August 14, 2018 (as amended, the “Second

and ASPEN REFRIGERANTS, INC. (formerly known as AIRGAS-REFRIGERANTS, INC.), a Delaware corporation (“ARI”
and together with Hudson Technologies, and Holdings, collectively, the “Borrowers”, and each a “Borrower”),
the other Credit Parties hereto, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”), and U.S.
BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as collateral agent and administrative agent for the Lenders (in
such capacities, the “Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement or the Second Amendment, as applicable.

 

Borrowers, Agent and
Lenders hereby agree as follows:

 

		1.)	The date set forth in Section 1.1 of the Second Amendment for delivery of a certificate setting
forth in reasonable detail (with accompanying calculations) the Total Leverage Ratio as of the four fiscal quarter period ending
September 30, 2018 shall be extended to November 30, 2018. Accordingly, effective as of the date hereof, Borrowers, Agent, and
Lenders agree that the text “November 21, 2018” in Section 1.1 of the Second Amendment is hereby replaced with the
text “November 30, 2018”. The period from the date hereof through and including November 30, 2018 is referred to as
the “Extension Period”.

 

		2.)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement, the Second Amendment or any Other
Document, the Borrowers shall be permitted to make voluntary prepayments of the Loans during the Extension Period, and no Prepayment
Premium or Make-Whole Amount shall be due and payable in connection with any such voluntary prepayment.

 

    	 

     

    

 

Except as expressly
provided herein, the Credit Agreement and each Other Document shall continue in full force and effect, and this letter agreement
shall not be deemed to be a waiver or amendment of any other provision of the Credit Agreement or any Other Document. Without limiting
the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly reserve all of their rights, powers, privileges and remedies
under the Credit Agreement, the Other Documents and applicable law. This letter agreement shall constitute an Other Document under
the terms of the Credit Agreement. The governing law, jurisdiction, service of process and waiver of jury trial provisions set
forth in Sections 14.1 and 11.8 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, mutatis mutandis. This letter
agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. The
Credit Agreement (as modified by this letter agreement) and the Other Documents embody the entire agreement among the parties hereto
and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof. This letter
agreement may be executed and delivered via facsimile or email (in .pdf format) transmission with the same force and effect as
if an original were executed, and may be executed in original counterparts each of which counterpart shall be deemed an original
document but all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

By their execution
hereof, Lenders hereby instruct and direct Agent to execute this letter agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and benefits to be derived herefrom, the parties hereto agree as
follows: 
  

	1.	 Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

  

	2.	 Amendments to Article I of Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 1.01 of the Credit
Agreement are hereby amended as follows: 

  

	 	a.	 by deleting the definition of “Prepayment Event” in its entirety and substituting the following in
its stead: 

 “Prepayment Event” means: 

(a)    Any Disposition (including pursuant to a sale and leaseback transaction) of any property or asset of
a Loan Party (other than any Permitted Disposition described in clauses (a) or (f) of the definition thereof); or 

(b)    Any casualty or other insured damage to, or any taking under power of eminent domain or by
condemnation or similar proceeding of (and payments in lieu thereof), any property or asset of a Loan Party of a type included in the Domestic Revolving Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, unless (i) the proceeds therefrom are
required to be paid to the holder of a Lien on such property or asset having priority over the Lien of the Agent or (ii) prior to the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Event, the proceeds therefrom are utilized for purposes of replacing or
repairing the assets in respect of which such proceeds, awards or payments were received within 180 days of the occurrence of the damage to or loss of the assets being repaired or replaced. 

 

	 	b.	 by deleting the definition of “Senior Notes” in its entirety and substituting the following in its
stead:

	3.	 Amendment to Article II of Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 2.05 of the Credit

 (e)    The Borrowers shall prepay the Loans (if any) and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations, in
an amount equal to the Net Proceeds received by a Loan Party on account of a Prepayment Event; provided that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine that no prepayment
shall be required pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Prepayment Event”. 
  

	4.	 Amendment to Article VII of Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 7.06 of the Credit
Agreement are hereby amended as follows: 

  

	 	a.	 by deleting the text “and” immediately following Section 7.06(f).

 (g)    the Lead Borrower may make Restricted Payments to Holdings (or on behalf of Holdings) to pay
obligations of Holdings incurred in the ordinary course of business in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000 in any Fiscal Year; and 

  
 2 

 (h)    if the RP Conditions are satisfied, the Loan Parties may make
other Restricted Payments. 
  

	5.	 Consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.05(e) of the Credit
Agreement, in clause (b) of the definition of “Prepayment Event”, or in any policy or endorsement provided by Affiliated FM Insurance Company, the Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the direct receipt by any of the Loan Parties
of all insurance proceeds related to the casualty events which occurred prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) in certain of the Loan Parties’ Seattle, WA and New York, NY Stores, and such insurance proceeds shall not
be required to be deposited into a segregated account, utilized for purposes of replacing or repairing any assets, or applied to prepay the Loans or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations. 

 

	6.	 Representations and Warranties. 

 

	 	a.	 Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Agents and the Lenders that (a) all representations
and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, except (i) to the extent that such representations and
warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (ii) in the case of any representation and warranty qualified by materiality, they are true and correct in all respects, and
(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the effectiveness of this Amendment. 

  

	 	b.	 The transactions contemplated hereby are within each Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational powers
and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, membership or other necessary action of such Loan Party. The Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party, in each case as amended hereby, (i) has
been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party, and (ii) constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

 

	7.	 Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective on the date (the
“Second Amendment Effective Date”) on which the Agent shall have received counterparts of this Amendment duly executed and delivered by each of the parties hereto. 

 

	8.	 Miscellaneous. 

 

	 	a.	 Except as modified hereby, all terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain
in full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that the Security Documents and any and all Collateral pledged pursuant thereto to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Credit Parties, shall continue to secure all applicable Obligations at any time and from time to time outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as such Obligations have been modified pursuant to this Amendment.

  
 3 

	 	b.	 This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts),
each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter of this Amendment and supersedes any
and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy, pdf or other electronic transmission shall be as effective
as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. 

  

	 	c.	 THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
