certain First Lien Term Loans and Second Lien Term Loans (as such terms are
defined in that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2006, by
and among Generac Power Systems, Inc., as borrower, and the other parties
thereto) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $154,814,528 (collectively, the
“Exchange”);

 

WHEREAS, the CCMP Capital Investors also purchased 1,550 shares of the
Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in an equity investment of $15,500,000
(together with the Exchange, the “CCMP Transactions”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Certificate of Designations Establishing the
Voting Powers, Designations, Preferences, Limitations, Restrictions and

Preferred Paid-in Capital (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) of
shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock obtained by the CCMP

increased from the date of issuance of each CCMP Share at a rate of 14% per
annum (calculated quarterly and compounded on the basis of a 360 day year of 12
months);

 

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company authorized the issuance
of an additional 2,000 shares (the “Newly Issued Shares”)  of Series A Preferred Stock (the
“New

Investors and separately purchasing the Purchaser’s applicable pro rata share

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire the Series A
Preferred Unreturned Paid-in Capital (as defined in the Certificate of

Certificate of Designations, the methodology for which is set for on Schedule
I attached hereto;

 

WHEREAS, in connection with
the Offer Notice and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein, the Purchaser desires to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company
desires to sell to the Purchaser that number of shares of Offered Securities
set forth on Schedule II attached hereto opposite the Purchaser’s name (each
share, a “Purchased Share”  and, collectively,
the “Purchased Shares”),  which
Purchased Shares shall have a Series A Preferred Unreturned Paid-in

REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS OF THE PURCHASER

 

3.1                                   The Purchaser
hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

(a)                                    Authorization. The Purchaser
is authorized and qualified and has full right and power to execute and deliver
this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby to
which the Purchaser is a party, and to perform its obligations hereunder and
thereunder. This Agreement and all other agreements and instruments
contemplated hereby to which the Purchaser is a party have been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Purchaser. Assuming the due
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all
other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby by the other parties
hereof and thereof, this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments
contemplated hereby to which the Purchaser is a party are legal, valid and
binding agreements, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with their
terms.

 

(b)                                   Investment Representations.

 

(i)                                   The Purchased
Shares to be received by the Purchaser will be acquired by it for its own
account (or in the case of a custodian, for the account of its affiliated
funds), not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the sale or
distribution of any part thereof in violation of applicable federal and state
securities laws, and it has no current intention of selling, granting a
participation in or otherwise distributing the same, in each case, in violation
of applicable federal and state securities laws. By executing this Agreement, the
Purchaser further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant a participation to
such person, or to any third person, with respect to any of the Purchased
Shares to be received by the Purchaser, in each case, in violation of
applicable federal and state securities laws.

 

(ii)                               The Purchaser
has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment. The Purchaser
further represents that it has had, during the course of the transactions
contemplated hereby and prior to its purchase of the Purchased Shares, the
opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company
concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain additional
information necessary to verify the accuracy of any information furnished to it
or to which it had

 

 

access. The Purchaser understands that no federal or state agency has
passed upon this investment or upon the Company, nor has any such agency made
any finding or determination as to this investment.

 

(iii)                              The Purchaser
understands that the Purchased Shares to be received may not be sold, transferred
or otherwise disposed of without registration under the 1933 Act or an
exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration
statement covering such Purchased Shares or an available exemption from
registration under the 1933 Act, such Purchased Shares must be held
indefinitely. The Purchaser is prepared to bear the economic risk of this
investment for an indefinite period of time. In particular, the Purchaser
acknowledges that it is aware that such Purchased Shares may not be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act unless all of the
conditions of that Rule are met. Among the current conditions for use of Rule 144
by certain holders is the availability to the public of current information
about the Company. Such information is not now available, and the Company has
no current plans to make such information available. The Purchaser represents
that, in the absence of an effective registration statement covering such
Purchased Shares, it will sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of such Purchased
Shares only in a manner consistent with its representations set forth herein
and then only in accordance with the Shareholders’ Agreement.

 

(iv)                            The Purchaser
acknowledges that this investment is not recommended for investors who have any
need for a current return on this investment or who cannot bear the risk of
losing their entire investment. The Purchaser acknowledges that: (i) it
has adequate means of providing for its current needs and possible personal
contingencies and has no need for liquidity in this investment; (ii) its
commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not
disproportionate to its net worth; and (iii) its investment in the
Purchased Shares will not cause its overall financial commitments to become
excessive.

 

3.2                                 Legends; Stop
Transfer.

 

(a)                                 The Purchaser acknowledges
that all certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares shall bear the following
legend:

 

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT
WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO
SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY
TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH

 

 

REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933.”

 

3.3                                 The
certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares shall also bear any legend
required by any applicable state securities law.

 

ARTICLE IV

consent to any departure from any provision of this Agreement shall be

and obligations of each party under this Agreement may not be assigned to any

it had

 

 

access.
The Purchaser understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon this
investment or upon the Company, nor has any such agency made any finding or
determination as to this investment.

 

(iii)                              The Purchaser
understands that the Purchased Shares to be received may not be sold, transferred
or otherwise disposed of without registration under the 1933 Act or an
exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration
statement covering such Purchased Shares or an available exemption from
registration under the 1933 Act, such Purchased Shares must be held indefinitely.
The Purchaser is prepared to bear the economic risk of this investment for an
indefinite period of time. In particular, the Purchaser acknowledges that it is
aware that such Purchased Shares may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act unless all of the conditions of that Rule are
met. Among the current conditions for use of Rule 144 by certain holders
is the availability to the public of current information about the Company. Such
information is not now available, and the Company has no current plans to make
such information available. The Purchaser represents that, in the absence of an
effective registration statement covering such Purchased Shares, it will sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of such Purchased Shares only in a manner consistent with
its representations set forth herein and then only in accordance with the
Shareholders’ Agreement.

 

(iv)                             The Purchaser
acknowledges that this investment is not recommended for investors who have any
need for a current return on this investment or who cannot bear the risk of
losing their entire investment. The Purchaser acknowledges that: (i) it
has adequate means of providing for its current needs and possible personal
contingencies and has no need for liquidity in this investment; (ii) its
commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not
disproportionate to its net worth; and (iii) its investment in the
Purchased Shares will not cause its overall financial commitments to become
excessive.

 

3.2                                  Legends; Stop
Transfer.

 

(a)                                   The Purchaser
acknowledges that all certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares shall bear
the following legend:

 

“THE
SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A
VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE
OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY
TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH

 

 

REGISTRATION
IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

3.3                                 The
certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares shall also bear any legend
required by any applicable state securities law.
