Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Restructuring Transactions, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in New York as described herein for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) that (A) the proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, all proceedings contemplated by this Section 11(b) shall be brought in the Bankruptcy Court.

(c) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

12.

Specific Performance/Remedies.

It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (including attorneys fees

and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, including an order of the Bankruptcy Court requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder.

13.

Survival.

Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the agreements and obligations of the Parties in this Section 13, the proviso set forth in Section 3(a)(i) hereof, and Sections 4(a)(xv), 5(f), 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 hereof (and any defined terms used in any such Sections) shall survive such termination and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Consenting Creditors in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that any liability of a Party for failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall survive such termination.

14.

Headings.

The headings of the sections, paragraphs and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation hereof or, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Agreement.

15.

Successors and Assigns; Severability; Several Obligations.

This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and representatives; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 15 shall be deemed to permit Transfers of the Senior Notes, First Lien Loans, Second Lien Loans or claims arising under the Senior Notes, First Lien Loans or Second Lien Loans other than in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any person or entity or circumstance, shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision or part thereof and the remaining part of such provision hereof and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon any such determination of invalidity, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. The agreements, representations and obligations of the Parties are, in all respects, ratable and several and neither joint nor joint and several.

16.

Unless expressly stated herein, this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties and no other person or entity shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof.

17.

This Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules hereto (including the Term Sheet and the Backstop Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties, and supersedes all

other prior negotiations, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, except that the Parties acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements (if any) heretofore executed between the Company and each Consenting Creditor shall continue in full force and effect.

18.

This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.

Reservation of Rights; No Admission.

(a) Nothing contained herein shall (i) limit (A) the ability of any Consenting Creditor to consult with other Consenting Creditors or the Company or (B) the rights of any Consenting Creditor under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, foreclosure or similar proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to appear as a party in interest in any matter to be adjudicated in order to be heard concerning any matter arising in the Chapter 11 Cases, in each case, so long as such consultation or appearance is consistent with such Consenting Creditor’s obligations hereunder or under the terms of the Plan and are not for the purpose of hindering, delaying or preventing the confirmation or consummation of the Plan or the Restructuring; (ii) limit the ability of any Consenting Creditor to sell or enter into any transactions in connection with the Senior Notes, First Lien Loans, Second Lien Loans or any other claims against or interests in the Company, subject to the terms of Sections 3(c) and 3(d) hereof; (iii) limit the rights of any Consenting Creditor under the Indenture, the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement (as applicable), or any agreements executed in connection with the Indenture, First Lien Credit Agreement or Second Lien Credit Agreement or (iv) constitute a waiver or amendment of any provision of the Indenture, the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement (as applicable), or any agreements executed in connection with the Indenture, First Lien Credit Agreement or Second Lien Credit Agreement subject to the terms of Section 3(a) hereof.

(b) Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair or restrict the ability of each of the Parties to protect and preserve its rights, remedies and interests, including without limitation, its claims against any of the other Parties (or their respective affiliates or subsidiaries) or its full participation in any bankruptcy case filed by the Company or any of its affiliates and subsidiaries. This Agreement and the Term Sheet are part of a proposed settlement of matters that could otherwise be the subject of litigation among the Parties. Pursuant to Rule 408 of the Federal Rule of Evidence, any applicable state rules of evidence and any other applicable law, foreign or domestic, this Agreement and all negotiations relating thereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce its terms. This Agreement shall in no event be construed as or be deemed to be evidence of an admission or concession on the part of any Party of any claim or fault or liability or damages whatsoever. Each of the Parties denies any and all wrongdoing or liability of any kind and does not concede any infirmity in the claims or defenses which it has asserted or could assert.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall vitiate or restrict any consent or approval rights that any party to the DIP Commitment or the Exit Revolver Commitment may have with respect to any terms, amendments or modifications under the DIP Commitment or the Exit Revolver Commitment, as applicable.

21.

Relationship Among Parties/Committee Membership.

(a) It is understood and agreed that no Consenting Creditor has any duty of trust or confidence in any kind or form with any other Consenting Creditor, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, there are no commitments among or between them. In this regard, it is understood and agreed that any Consenting Creditor may trade in the Senior Notes, First Lien Loans, Second Lien Loans or other debt or equity securities of the Company without the consent of the Company or any other Consenting Creditor, subject to applicable securities laws, the terms of this Agreement and any confidentiality agreement entered into with the Company; provided, however, that no Consenting Creditor shall have any responsibility for any such trading to any other entity by virtue of this Agreement. No prior history, pattern or practice of sharing confidences among or between the Consenting Creditors shall in any way affect or negate this understanding and agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall require any Consenting Noteholder or representative of a Consenting Noteholder that becomes a member of a statutory committee that may be established in the Chapter 11 Cases to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, in such person’s capacity as a statutory committee member; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring any Consenting Noteholder to serve on any statutory committee in the Chapter 11 Cases.

22.

No Solicitation; Representation by Counsel; Adequate Information.

(a) This Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be a solicitation for votes in favor of the Plan in the Chapter 11 Cases or a solicitation to tender or exchange any of the Senior Notes, First Lien Loans or Second Lien Loans. The acceptances of the Consenting Creditors with respect to the Plan will not be solicited until such Consenting Creditor has received the Disclosure Statement and related ballots and solicitation materials, each as approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

(b) Each Party acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to receive information from the Company and that it has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel shall have no application and is expressly waived.

(c) Although none of the Parties intends that this Agreement should constitute, and they each believe it does not constitute, a solicitation or acceptance of a chapter 11 plan of reorganization or an offering of securities, each Consenting Creditor acknowledges, agrees and represents to the other Parties that it (i) is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, (ii) understands that the securities to be acquired by it pursuant to the Restructuring Transactions have not been registered under the Securities Act and that such securities are, to the extent not acquired pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act, based in part upon such Consenting Creditor’s representations contained in this Agreement and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an

exemption from registration is available and (iii) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Consenting Creditor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the securities to be acquired by it pursuant to the Restructuring Transactions and understands and is able to bear any economic risks with such investment.

23.

Confidential Information.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company determines that any information (whether written or oral) required to be delivered under this Agreement is material non-public information within the meaning of Regulation FD of the Exchange Act (“MNPI”), the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any such MNPI to any Party unless and until, such Party has executed a confidentiality agreement, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, under which such recipient has agreed to hold as confidential, subject to customary exceptions, and not disclose, subject to customary exceptions, any such MNPI for a period ending no earlier than April 11, 2013 (which confidentiality agreement shall contain confidentiality arrangements substantially similar to the arrangements set forth in those certain confidentiality agreements between the Company and Centerbridge Advisors II, LLC, dated as of October 13, 2011, the Company and Redwood Capital Management, LLC, dated as of October 17, 2011, and the Company and Platinum Equity Advisors, LLC, dated as of November 22, 2011, other than with respect to the release date of April 11, 2013).

24.

Cancellation of Equity.

The Parent and the Equity Sponsor agree that it shall, on the Effective Date, cause Aquilex Acquisition Sub to submit to Holdings for cancellation all of the membership interests of Holdings held by Aquilex Acquisition Sub, which represents all of the outstanding membership interests of Holdings and which membership interests shall be cancelled by Holdings upon receipt thereof.

25.

On the Effective Date, Holdings shall assume the liability for all Taxes of Aquilex Acquisition Sub for all taxable periods including through dissolution, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the officers, directors and employees of Aquilex Acquisition Sub for any liability arising out of or otherwise related to Aquilex Acquisition Sub’s Taxes; provided, however that such indemnification shall not extend to any act or omission that is a criminal act or constitutes intentional fraud.

(b) Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns. Holdings shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company that are filed after the Effective Date, including consolidated returns for the affiliated group of which Aquilex Acquisition Sub was the parent.

(c) Refunds. Any Tax refunds belonging to Aquilex Acquisition Sub or received by it on behalf of the Company, shall be for the account of Holdings, and Aquilex Acquisition Sub shall pay over to Holdings any such refund within 15 days of its receipt.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Each of the Aquilex Acquisition Sub, Holdings and Holdings’ subsidiaries shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 25 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Aquilex Acquisition Sub agrees to transfer to Holdings all of its books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Aquilex Acquisition Sub shall execute on or prior to the Effective Date a power of attorney authorizing Holdings to correspond, sign, collect, negotiate, settle and administer Tax payments and Tax Returns for all taxable periods ending on or prior to, or including, the Effective Date.

(e) LLC Conversion. Prior to the Closing, each of Aquilex Corporation, Aquilex Finance Corp., Aquilex Hydrochem, Inc., Aquilex HydroChem Industrial Cleaning, Inc., Aquilex Specialty Repair and Overhaul, Inc., Aquilex WSI, Inc. and Aquilex SMS, Inc. shall convert to a single-member limited liability company treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(f) Aquilex Acquisition Sub Liquidation. Immediately following the Effective Date or as soon as practicable thereafter, Aquilex Acquisition Sub will dissolve under state law. As of the Closing, one or more of the new officers of Holdings will be appointed as officers of Aquilex Acquisition Sub, and Holdings will fund and effectuate the dissolution of Aquilex Acquisition Sub as provided above.

Transaction Overview
Restructuring Summary:		The Restructuring shall be implemented through the simultaneous commencement of (1) an out-of-court offer to exchange the Senior Notes for New Common Units (the “*Exchange Offer*”) pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and (2) the solicitation of votes for the Plan.

In connection with the Restructuring, the Company will launch a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) with an aggregate offering amount of up to $80 million, pursuant to which Eligible Noteholders will be entitled to receive their pro rata share of subscription rights to acquire New Participating Preferred Units (the “Rights Offering Units”) that will represent a percentage interest of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (as defined herein) (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2⁴ attached hereto). In the event the Restructuring is consummated pursuant to the Plan, and as set forth in the Backstop Agreement, each of the Backstop Parties will pay, severally and not jointly, to the Company, on the Effective Date, its Total Commitment Percentage of $5.0 million, and in exchange therefor, on the Effective Date the Company will issue to each of the Backstop Parties such Backstop Party’s Total Commitment Percentage of the Plan Additional Units (as defined in the Backstop Agreement). In addition, the Backstop Agreement contemplates the Backstop Parties potentially providing to the Company on the Effective Date (1) up to $561,450 in cash to fund potential consent payments to Noteholders in connection with the Exchange Offer, in exchange for the Consent Payment Units (as defined in the Backstop Agreement), (2) $5,000,000 in cash to fund expenses of the Company in the event the Chapter 11 Cases commence, in exchange for the Plan Additional Units (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) and (3) up to $5,000,000 in cash, if the Required Backstop Interest and the Company determine that the working capital and cash flow needs of the Company are such that it would be desirable to provide additional cash resources to the Company, in exchange for the Cash Flow Shortfall Units (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) (each such amount as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto). The Consent Payment Units, Plan Additional Units and Cash Flow Shortfall Units will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis equal to the aggregate amount of such cash payments divided by the Equity Value. The material terms of the Rights Offering shall be described in more detail in the Equity Term Sheet, dated December 23, 2011, attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit C (the “Equity Term Sheet”) and the Rights Offering Procedures attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit D (the “Rights Offering Procedures”).

On the Effective Date, the Company will obtain financing in the form of (a) a revolving credit facility in the principal amount of $40 million (the “Exit Revolver”), the proceeds of which will be used to fund seasonal increases in working capital and for general working capital and general corporate purposes, and (b) an amendment and restatement of the First Lien Credit Agreement (or replacement financing) in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $132,762,500.00 (the “Exit Term Loan” and, together with the Exit Revolver, the “Exit Financing”). The term sheet for the Exit Term Loan is attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit E and is acceptable to the Lenders and the Consenting Noteholders. The term sheet for the Exit Revolver is attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit H and is acceptable to the Lenders and the Requisite Noteholders. The final form of the Exit Financing shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Noteholders, the First Lien Agent and the Requisite First Lien Lenders.

The proceeds from the Rights Offering and the Exit Financing, plus cash on hand, will be used by the Company to (A) (1) if the First Lien Facility is not otherwise satisfied in full in cash, pay down the First Lien Facility by $65 million, such that the Exit Term Loan will total approximately $132,762,500.00 in principal amount; (2) provide additional liquidity for working capital and general corporate purposes;

⁴	In the event of any conflict between this term sheet and Annex 2, this Term Sheet will control.

and (3) pay all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by each of the Company, the First Lien Agent, the First Lien Lenders, the Second Lien Agent, the Second Lien Lenders, the Ad Hoc Committee, Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board (solely with respect to the reasonable and documented fees and expenses charged by Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP), Centerbridge Advisors II, LLC and certain of its affiliates in connection with the Restructuring or the Company, including the fees (including transaction fees) and expenses of their respective legal and financial advisors (but no more than one legal counsel, one local counsel and one financial advisor for the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Lenders) (collectively, the “Restructuring Expenses”), and (B) to the extent the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, (1) repay the DIP Financing (as defined below) in full in cash (if applicable); (2) fund Plan distributions, including the paydown of the First Lien Facility in an amount equal to $65 million less the amount of the First Lien Facility rolled up into the DIP Financing, if applicable; and (3) fund the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases.

The Rights Offering will be backstopped by the Backstop Parties as contemplated in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Backstop Agreement attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit B.

In exchange for providing the backstop commitment for the Rights Offering, the Backstop Parties will receive the Backstop Commitment Fee. Upon execution of the Backstop Agreement and the DIP Commitment, the Backstop Commitment Fee shall immediately and automatically be deemed earned and payable in the form of an increase in the principal amount of the Second Lien Loan such that the principal amount of the Second Lien Loan shall be increased as of such date, dollar for dollar, by the amount of the Backstop Commitment Fee (the “Incremental Second Lien Debt”) and the parties to the Second Lien Credit Agreement shall amend the Second Lien Credit Agreement accordingly; provided, however, in the event that any Backstop Party is not a lender under the Second Lien Loan as of such date (such Backstop Party, a “Specified Second Lien Lender”), each of the Second Lien Agent, the Second Lien Lenders and the Company agree that the borrower and each of the guarantors under the Second Lien Loan shall issue and deliver notes (or other instruments) under the Second Lien Loan to such non-lender Backstop Party in an amount equal to such non-lender Backstop Party’s Total Commitment Percentage of the Backstop Commitment Fee. In the event the Restructuring is consummated, on the Effective Date each of the Backstop Parties shall, in exchange for cancellation of the Incremental Second Lien Debt, receive a percentage of the New Participating Preferred Units (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto), it being understood that in the event the Restructuring is not consummated, the Incremental Second Lien Debt shall be payable in full in cash in accordance with its terms (unless the holders of the Second Lien Debt agree to different treatment) and shall continue to be included as part of the Second Lien Claims; provided, further, that under no circumstances shall the Incremental Second Lien Debt be payable from proceeds of the DIP Financing (and the parties to the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below) and Side Letter (as defined below) agree to amend the Intercreditor Agreement and the Side Letter accordingly, to the extent necessary.

As part of the Restructuring, on the Effective Date:

• At the option of the Company and the Requisite Noteholders, each First Lien Lender shall be entitled to receive its pro rata share of (a)(1) $65 million in cash, less, in the event that the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, the amount of the First Lien Facility rolled up into the DIP Financing, if applicable; and

(2) the Exit Term Loan or, (b) cash in an amount equal to the amount necessary to repay the First Lien Facility in full in cash, it being understood that outstanding letters of credit issued by RBC under the First Lien Facility or, if applicable, the DIP Financing shall be deemed issued under and as part of the Exit Revolver;

• each Second Lien Lender shall be entitled to receive (a) New Participating Preferred Units that will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto) (provided, that a Specified Second Lien Lender shall not be entitled to receive any such New Participating Preferred Units referred to in this clause (a) unless such Specified Second Lien Lender holds a portion of the Second Lien Loan (other than the Incremental Second Lien Debt)), and (b) on account of the Backstop Commitment Fee, New Participating Preferred Units that will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto);

• each Eligible Noteholder that properly complies with the Exchange Offer procedures and elects to exchange its Senior Notes in the Exchange Offer, shall be entitled to receive, at its option, either (a) (1) its pro rata share of the New Common Units that will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto), plus (2) to the extent such holder properly complies with the Rights Offering Procedures, the right to participate in the Rights Offering and share, on a pro rata basis, New Participating Preferred Units that will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto), or (b) cash in an amount equal to a percentage of the par value of the principal amount of such Eligible Noteholder’s Senior Notes as of the Record Date (as defined in the Rights Offering Procedures) (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto) (the “Eligible Noteholder Cash Option”);

• each Non-Tendering Noteholder (a) shall retain its Senior Notes if the Restructuring is consummated through the Exchange Offer or (b) shall receive cash in an amount equal to a percentage of the par value of the principal amount of such Noteholder’s Senior Notes as of the Record Date if the Restructuring is consummated pursuant to the Plan (such percentage as set forth in Annex 2 attached hereto) (the “Non-Tendering Noteholder Cash Option”), subject to the terms set forth in sixth bullet point of this “Restructuring Summary” section;

• each Non-Eligible Noteholder that properly complies with the Exchange Offer procedures and elects to exchange its Senior Notes in the Exchange Offer shall be entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to 37.5% of the par value of the principal amount of such Non-Eligible Noteholder’s Senior Notes as of the Record Date (the “Non-Eligible Noteholder Cash Option,” and together with the Eligible Noteholder Cash Option and the Non-Tendering Noteholder Cash Option, the “Noteholder Cash Options”) unless such Non-Eligible Noteholder acquired its Senior Notes after December 23, 2011, in which case it will be entitled to the same percentage provided under the Eligible Noteholder Cash Option;


		Non-Eligible Noteholder shall receive cash in the amount set forth in the foregoing bullet unless such Non-Eligible Noteholder informs the Company in writing no less than 5 business days prior to the Confirmation Date that it would like to receive its distribution in the form of New Common Units rather than in cash (in which case, such Non-Eligible Noteholder shall receive a number of New Common Units as determined by clause (a)(1) in the third bullet point of this “Restructuring Summary” section); • the cash payments to any of the Noteholders described in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth bullet points of this “Restructuring Summary” section (the “*Cash Out Payments”) will be funded by the Backstop Parties (through the Company) in return for the Backstop Parties’ receipt, on a pro rata basis, of New Participating Preferred Units that will represent a percentage of the New Units on a Fully Diluted Basis equal to the aggregate amount of the Cash Out Payments divided by the Equity Value (such percentage to be set forth in Annex 2* attached hereto); provided, however, that the Backstop Parties, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be eligible for the Eligible Noteholder Cash Option; • each holder of a General Unsecured Claim shall be entitled to receive, in full and final satisfaction of such allowed General Unsecured Claim, payment in full in cash in the ordinary course of business as and when due and payable; and • the Parent and Ontario, in exchange for treatment as Released Parties and, with respect to Ontario, the reimbursement of the reasonable and documented fees and expenses charged by Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP as provided herein, will agree to (a) cause all of the Existing Equity Interests to be canceled, and such Interests shall be deemed canceled on the Effective Date, and (b) terminate all of their management services agreements with the Company, if any, and waive and relinquish any rights or claims thereunder, if any.

Use of Cash Collateral and DIP Financing:		In the event the Restructuring is consummated through the Plan, the Company will seek authority promptly upon commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases to enter into debtor-in-possession financing (the “*DIP Financing”), which DIP Financing, together with cash on hand, will be used to fund the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases. The DIP Financing shall be provided on the terms and conditions set forth in the commitment agreement and term sheet attached to the Restructuring Support Agreement as Exhibit G* (the “*DIP Term Sheet*”) and shall otherwise be acceptable to the Company, the First Lien Agent, the Requisite First Lien Lenders, and the Requisite Noteholders, each in their reasonable discretion. In connection with the Company’s use of cash collateral, the Debtors shall provide “adequate protection” (as such term is defined in sections 361 and 363 of the Bankruptcy Code) to the First Lien Lenders and the Second Lien Lenders on the terms set forth in the DIP Term Sheet and shall otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Company, the First Lien Agent, the Requisite First Lien Lenders, the Requisite Second Lien Lenders and the Requisite Noteholders. Any order approving the DIP Financing and/or the use of cash collateral shall be consistent with the DIP Term Sheet and shall otherwise be acceptable to the Company, the First Lien Agent, the Requisite First Lien Lenders and the Requisite Noteholders, each in their reasonable discretion.

Non-BP Notes Participation in Cash Out Option

Non-BP Notes that are accredited investors would have an option to cash out at 22.3% - 25.1% of par depending on the number of holders

taking the cash out option

Cash Out Payments formula (for both in and

out-of-court scenarios)

Strictly private and confidential

455014

Cash Out Payments formula (for both in and out-of-court scenarios)

The amount of cash to be paid to the Non-Backstop Parties (“Non-BP Notes”) that accept the cash out option would be equal to the sum of:

(1) The face amount of Senior

Notes

held

the

non-accredited

holders

that

the

cash

out

option

multiplied

37.5%,

plus

(2) The face amount of Senior Notes held by the accredited holders that accept the cash out option multiplied by the accredited Non-BP Notes cash offer (the

“Accredited Notes Cash Offer”)

The Accredited Notes Cash Offer is calculated as follows:

–

Set-up equity value of $187,237,500 (equal to Set-up TEV of $320,000,000 minus pro forma indebtedness of $132,762,500),

–

multiplied by pro forma equity ownership of Senior Noteholders (see calculation below),

–

divided by the aggregate face amount of Senior Notes of $225,000,000

Pro forma equity ownership of Senior Noteholders is equal to:

–

100.0%,

–

Less pro forma equity ownership of the Rights Offering participants of 53.408% (equal to the Aggregate Rights Offering Amount divided by the Equity

Value of $149,790,000)

–

Less pro forma equity ownership of Bridge Facility lenders of 10.525% (in an out of court scenario) or 10.719% (in an in-court scenario). Pro forma

equity ownership of Bridge Facility lenders in an out-of-court scenario is equal to the Bridge Facility amount of $15,764,909 divided by the Equity

Value of $149,790,000. Pro forma equity ownership of Bridge Facility lenders in an in-court scenario is equal to the Bridge Facility amount of

$16,056,553 divided by the Equity Value of $149,790,000

–

Less pro forma equity ownership of the Backstop Parties

Pro forma equity ownership of the Backstop Parties is equal to the sum of (i),(ii), (iii) and (iv) below, divided by the Equity Value of $149,790,000:

–

(i) the Backstop

Fee

$3,631,753

(equal

4.0%

multiplied

the

Total

Backstop

Commitment

$90,793,818

(see

calculation

below)),

–

(ii) the Consent Fee (only applicable in the out-of-court scenario),

–

(iii) the total amount of additional funds contributed by the Backstop Parties at closing equal to the sum of (i) the face amount of Senior Notes held by

the non-accredited

holders

that

the

cash

out

option

multiplied

37.5%,

plus

(ii)

the

face

amount

Senior

Notes

held

the

accredited

holders that accept the cash out option multiplied by the Accredited Notes Cash Offer, and

–

(iv) the Plan Additional Units Purchase Price (only applicable in the in-court scenario)

Total Backstop Commitment of $90,793,818 is calculated as the sum of (a) the Aggregate Rights Offering Amount, plus (b) the maximum amount of the

Consent Fee of $561,450, plus (c) $5,000,000 (Plan Additional Units Purchase Price), plus (d) $5,232,368 (maximum Noteholder Cash Option Amount

assuming 75% of the Non-BP Notes is held by accredited investors and 25% by non-accredited investors)

Consent Fee is equal to the sum of the face value of Senior Notes held by the Non-BP Notes that elect to participate in the Exchange Offer or chose the

cash out option, multiplied by 3.0%

Equity Term Sheet

Exhibit C

AQUILEX HOLDINGS LLC

CERTAIN POST-RESTRUCTURING EQUITY TERMS

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Backstop Purchase Agreement

to which this term sheet is attached as an Exhibit.


THE COMPANY		Aquilex Holdings LLC (the “Company”).

TAX STATUS		The Company shall be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income, state and local tax purposes (and not as a publicly traded partnership within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code), and neither the Company nor any Unitholder (as defined below) shall make any election to the contrary.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE		The limited liability company interests of the Company shall be represented by units. As of the Effective Date, there shall be two classes of units: (i) the Class A Units (the “Class A Units”) and (ii) the Class B Units¹ (the “Class B Units” and, together with the Class A Units and any other limited liability company interests issued pursuant to a Third Amended & Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company (the “Amended LLC Agreement”), the “Units”), each having the terms described below and which will be set forth in the Amended LLC Agreement (by which all holders of Units will be bound as a condition of issuance and delivery of their Units). The holders of Class A Units and Class B Units are referred to herein collectively, as the “Unitholders”, and as applicable, as the “Class A Unitholders” or the “Class B Unitholders”. The “Initial Units” shall be the Offering Units, the Bridge Conversion Units, the Exchange Units, the Consent Fee Units, the Additional Plan Units, the Cash Flow Shortfall Units and the Noteholder Cash Option Units (in each case, as defined below). The “Aggregate Initial Unit Amount” shall be a fixed number of Units equal to 1,000,000, which shall also be equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate number of Offering Units plus (B) the aggregate number of Bridge Conversion Units plus (C) the aggregate number of Exchange Units plus (D) the aggregate number of Noteholder Cash Option Units plus (E) the aggregate number of Consent Fee Units, plus (F) the aggregate number of Additional Plan Units plus (G) the aggregate number of Cash Flow Shortfall Units.

¹	NTD: The Class A Units are the New Common Units, and the Class B Units are the New Participating Preferred Units.

Those who elect to participate in the Rights Offering will be issued an aggregate number of Class B Units equal to the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the Aggregate Rights Offering Amount² divided by (ii) the Equity Value (the “Offering Units”).

The aggregate number of Class B Units to be issued upon conversion of the Bridge Facility in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement will equal the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the dollar amount of all outstanding obligations under the Bridge Facility as of the Effective Date (including all accrued and unpaid interest and the portion of the Backstop Commitment Fee payable in obligations under the Bridge Facility) divided by (ii) the Equity Value (the “Bridge Conversion Units”).

The aggregate amount of cash required to fund payments to the holders of Senior Notes that are entitled, or elect, to receive cash in respect of their Senior Notes shall be fully funded by the Backstop Parties that agree to do so in the Backstop Purchase Agreement in exchange for Class B Units (the “Noteholder Cash Option Units”. The aggregate number of Noteholder Cash Option Units to be issued at the Effective Date will equal the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the dollar amount necessary to fund cash payments to holders of Senior Notes that are entitled, or elect, to receive cash in respect of their Senior Notes on the Effective Date divided by (ii) the Equity Value.

In the event any Consent Payment Amount is funded, the aggregate number of Class B Units to be issued in exchange therefor shall equal the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the Consent Payment Amount³ divided by (ii) the Equity Value (the “Consent Payment Units”).

In the event the Plan Additional Units Purchase Price is funded, the aggregate number of Class B Units to be issued in exchange therefor shall equal the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit

²	NTD: $80/$85 million, as applicable.

³	NTD: An amount not to exceed $561,450 without the consent of the Required Backstop Interest.


		Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the Plan Additional Units Purchase Price ⁴ divided by (ii) the Equity Value (the “Plan Additional Units”). In the event any Cash Flow Shortfall Amount is funded, the aggregate number of Class B Units to be issued in exchange therefor shall equal the product of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount multiplied by (B) the quotient of (i) the Cash Flow Shortfall Amount⁵ divided by (ii) the Equity Value (the “Cash Flow Shortfall Units”). Holders of Senior Notes that validly tender and do not withdraw their Senior Notes (and who elect the equity option) in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer (or that are to receive equity in respect of their Senior Notes pursuant to the Plan, if applicable) will be issued an aggregate number of Class A Units (the “Exchange Units”) equal to (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount minus (B) the aggregate number of Offering Units minus (C) the aggregate number of Bridge Conversion Units minus (D) the aggregate number of Noteholder Cash Option Units minus (E) the aggregate number of Consent Fee Units minus (F) the aggregate number of Additional Plan Units minus (G) the aggregate number of Cash Flow Shortfall Units. After the Closing, the Initial Investors will not be obligated to make any further capital contributions.

PARTIES TO THE AMENDED LLC AGREEMENT		At the Closing, or immediately prior to the Closing, the Company will enter into the Amended LLC Agreement with certain entities (and/or their investment advisors, managers, managed funds or accounts, intermediaries or nominees) affiliated with or under management by the following: (i) Centerbridge Advisors II, LLC (together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, “Centerbridge”); (ii) Platinum Equity Advisors, LLC (together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, “Platinum”); (iii) GSO Capital Partners (together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, “GSO”); and (iv) Redwood Capital Management, LLC (together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, “Redwood”).

⁴	NTD: $5,000,000.

⁵	NTD: An amount not to exceed $5,000,000 without the consent of the Required Backstop Interest and the Company.


		The term “Initial Investor” means each Person who is entitled to receive Units on the Effective Date that is included in the definition of any of Centerbridge, Platinum, GSO and Redwood; and the term “Initial Investors” means all of the Initial Investors collectively. Platinum, GSO and Redwood are referred to herein, individually, as a “Minority Investor” and, collectively, as the “Minority Investors.” The Amended LLC Agreement shall be in form and substance consistent with this term sheet and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Supermajority Investors. The term “Supermajority Investors” means, at the time of determination, Initial Investors holding at least 66²/3% of the aggregate Commitments (if such time of determination is on or prior to the Effective Date) or Units (if such time of determination is after the Effective Date) committed to or held by all Initial Investors (taken together as a single class) at such time.

CLASS B LIQUIDATION VALUE		In the event of (i) any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, Corporate Conversion (as defined below) or winding up of the Company or (ii) a Sale of the Company (as defined herein) (each, a “Liquidation Event”), each of the Class B Unitholders will be entitled to receive, prior to and in preference to the Class A Unitholders (but after payment in full of any other liquidation preference in respect of any other series or class of Units subsequently approved by the Board (as defined below) in accordance with the terms of the Amended LLC Agreement that have a preference in liquidation to the Class B Units), an amount in cash equal to the greater of (i) the aggregate capital contributions made by such Class B Unitholder with respect to the Class B Units of such Class B Unitholder (the “Liquidation Value”) and (ii) the amount payable with respect to each Class B Unit of such Class B Unitholder assuming the Class A Units and the Class B Units share in the aggregate proceeds payable to the holders thereof on a pro rata basis. Distributions made to Class B Unitholders in connection with a Liquidation Event shall be made on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate Liquidation Value of the Class B Units held by the Class B Unitholders).

OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS		Except in the event of a distribution in connection with a Liquidation Event, distributions shall be made, if at all, at such times and in such amounts as determined by the Board of Managers of the Company (the “Board”), and all such distributions shall be made with respect to the Class B Units and the Class A Units on a pro rata basis.


		Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent of available cash and to the extent not prohibited by the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ financing agreements with lenders that are not Unitholders, the Company shall make pro rata quarterly distributions to its Unitholders with respect to the taxable income generated by the Company and its Subsidiaries allocable to the Unitholders in a manner to be set forth in the Amended LLC Agreement, assuming the highest applicable tax rates.

CLASS B COMPANY SALE		On and after the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Class B Units shall have the right, at any time, to require the Company to undertake a process to consummate a Sale of the Company.

MANAGEMENT/INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBER EQUITY		The Company will establish, for the benefit of members of the Board (other than members of the Board that are employed by any of the Unitholders) and members of senior management of the Company and its Subsidiaries, an incentive equity plan pursuant to which Units⁶ representing up to 10% of the Post-Effective Fully-Diluted Units (as defined below) may be issued to members of senior management and Units representing up to 1% of the Post-Effective Fully-Diluted Units may be issued to members of the Board (other than members of the Board that are employed by any of the Unitholders), in each case, on terms and subject to conditions acceptable to the Board and to Centerbridge (the “Incentive Equity Plan”). The Units issuable under the Incentive Equity Plan are referred to herein as “Incentive Equity Plan Units”. The “Post-Effective Fully-Diluted Units” shall mean the sum of (A) the Aggregate Initial Unit Amount plus (B) the aggregate number of Incentive Equity Plan Units.

TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS		Subject to certain customary exceptions to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors, such as transfers to Affiliates, Related Funds and family members (“Permitted Transfers”), and except for transfers made pursuant to Tag-Along rights and Drag-Along obligations, prior to the date that is the earliest to occur of (i) a Sale of the Company, (ii) an IPO and (iii) the first anniversary of the Effective Date, no Unitholder (other than Centerbridge) may transfer any Units without the prior approval of the Board, and any such transfers (or potential transfers) will be subject to securities law compliance, reasonable and customary confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company, regulatory restrictions,

⁶	NTD: To be a new class of limited voting units representing profits interests.


		restrictions on transfers to competitors or holders of more than a 5% interest in a competitor (but no such restriction shall apply to any such holder who holds not more than a 10% interest in any such competitor so long as such holder is a passive investor in such competitor (e.g., such holder or its controlled affiliates have no board membership, observer rights or veto rights over material decisions of such competitor, does not provide services or advice to such competitor and does not have any other material business relationship with such competitor besides its passive investment therein)), and certain other reasonable restrictions designed to keep the Company from being required to be a public reporting company or publicly traded partnership prior to an IPO.

RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER		Subject to certain customary exceptions to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors, prior to the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) a Sale of the Company and (ii) an IPO, if any holder of the Company’s Units (other than Centerbridge) seeks to transfer such Units (other than in a Permitted Transfer or pursuant to Tag-Along rights, Drag-Along obligations or the Class B Put Right), such Units contemplated to be transferred shall be subject to a right of first offer in favor of the Company and, if the Company elects not to exercise such right, the Initial Investors.

DRAG-ALONG		Subject to customary limitations and conditions to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors, for so long as Centerbridge is entitled to designate members of the Board as set forth below in clause (i) under “Board Representation,” in the event that, prior to an IPO, Centerbridge agrees to a Sale of the Company, upon Centerbridge’s request, all other Unitholders (the “Dragged Unitholders”) shall be required to consent to, and raise no objection against, such Sale of the Company, and to reasonably cooperate with Centerbridge in the negotiation, documentation and consummation of such Sale of the Company, which may include (x) selling a percentage of such Dragged Unitholder’s Units to the purchaser in such Sale of the Company corresponding to the aggregate percentage of the Units held by Centerbridge that are proposed to be included in such Sale of the Company at the per Unit price negotiated by and applicable to Centerbridge and (y) signing all documents reasonably necessary to consummate such Sale of the Company (to the same extent as executed by Centerbridge, but subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph). Dragged Unitholders shall receive the same form and amount of consideration per Unit that is being paid to Centerbridge in connection with the Sale of the Company (subject to the terms set forth in “Class B Liquidation Value” above). The terms and


		conditions applicable to the Dragged Unitholders in connection with the Sale of the Company shall not be less favorable than those terms and conditions applicable to Centerbridge. No Dragged Unitholder shall be liable for any indemnification, or be required to participate in any escrow arrangement, relating to the Sale of the Company in excess of the amount of proceeds payable to such Dragged Unitholder in connection with such Sale of the Company (or in an amount that is disproportionate to Centerbridge or the other Dragged Unitholders). If any Dragged Unitholder holds Units through a “blocker” corporation (a “Blocker Corporation”), then, in connection with any sale of Units contemplated under this “Drag-Along” section, Centerbridge shall request the buyer in such transaction to allow such Dragged Unitholder to sell the shares of, or interests in, such Blocker Corporation (the “Blocker Corporation Shares”) so long as such sale would not result in any adverse economic impact to, or the imposition of any liabilities on, any Person (including the Company or any Unitholder) other than the Blocker Corporation, its pre-transaction shareholders or the buyer; provided, however, that if any Unitholder that is included in the definition of Centerbridge is entitled to sell Blocker Corporation Shares in connection with any such sale, then all Dragged Unitholders who hold Units through a Blocker Corporation shall be entitled to sell Blocker Corporation Shares in connection with any such sale on the same basis as such Centerbridge Unitholder. For the avoidance of doubt, the buyer in any such transaction shall be free, in its sole discretion, to purchase or not to purchase the Blocker Corporation Shares.

TAG-ALONG RIGHTS		Prior to the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) a Sale of the Company and (ii) an IPO, in connection with any transfer by Centerbridge of any Units to a purchaser (other than a transfer that constitutes a Permitted Transfer) (a “Tag-Along Sale”), each other Unitholder (collectively, the “Tag-Along Unitholders”) shall have the option to include in such Tag-Along Sale a corresponding percentage of the Units owned by such Tag-Along Unitholder. Tag-Along Unitholders shall receive the same form and amount of consideration per Unit that is being paid to Centerbridge in connection with the Tag-Along Sale (subject to any differences between a Class A Unit and a Class B Unit to take into account the Liquidation Value). The terms and conditions applicable to the Tag-Along Unitholders in connection with the Tag-Along Sale shall not be less favorable than those terms and conditions applicable to Centerbridge. No Tag-Along Unitholder shall be liable for any indemnification, or be required to participate in any


		escrow arrangement, relating to the Tag-Along Sale in excess of the amount of proceeds payable to such Tag-Along Unitholder in connection with such Tag-Along Sale (or in an amount that is disproportionate to Centerbridge or the other Tag-Along Unitholders). If any Tag-Along Unitholder holds Units through a Blocker Corporation, then, in connection with any sale of Units contemplated under this “Tag-Along Rights” section, Centerbridge shall request the buyer in such transaction to allow such Tag-Along Unitholder to sell Blocker Corporation Shares so long such sale would not result in any adverse economic impact to, or the imposition of any liabilities on, any Person (including the Company or any Unitholder) other than the Blocker Corporation, its pre-transaction shareholders or the buyer; provided, however, that if any Unitholder that is included in the definition of Centerbridge is entitled to sell Blocker Corporation Shares in connection with any such sale, then all Tag-Along Unitholders who hold Units through a Blocker Corporation shall be entitled to sell Blocker Corporation Shares in connection with any such sale on the same basis as such Centerbridge Unitholder. For the avoidance of doubt, the buyer in any such transaction shall be free, in its sole discretion, to purchase or not to purchase the Blocker Corporation Shares.

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS		Subject to exceptions to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors, if, after the Effective Date, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company issues Units or other equity securities (or any options, warrants or other securities (including debt securities) that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Units or other equity securities) and Centerbridge participates in such issuance, then holders of more than 5% of the then outstanding Units shall be entitled to participate in such issuance on a pro rata basis. GSO shall be entitled to the foregoing rights described in this “Preemptive Rights” section so long as GSO holds, at the time of such issuance, at least 100% of the Units held by GSO on the Effective Date (subject to adjustment for splits, recapitalizations and similar events, “Adjustments”).

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING		If the Board determines to effect an IPO, and in connection therewith determines that it is appropriate to reorganize the Company as a corporation (a “Corporate Conversion”), the Unitholders will take such actions as shall be reasonably necessary to reorganize the Company (or organize its successor) as a corporation (the reorganized Company or its successor, the “Reorganized Issuer”). In connection therewith, holders of Units will receive shares of common stock of the Reorganized Issuer


		with an aggregate value (based on the initial per share price to the public) equal to the aggregate fair market value of their Units (based on the implied value of the Company immediately prior to consummation of such IPO and taking into account the Liquidation Value). In connection with any Corporate Conversion, any Initial Investor that holds Units through a Blocker Corporation shall be entitled to merge such Blocker Corporation into the Reorganized Issuer and/or contribute the equity securities of such Blocker Corporation into the Reorganized Issuer, in any such case in a tax-free transaction (a “Roll-Up Transaction”), pursuant to which Roll-Up Transaction the holders of any equity securities in the Blocker Corporation that is so merged or the equity securities in which are so contributed shall receive in exchange for such equity securities the same aggregate number and type of shares of capital stock of the Reorganized Issuer as would be issuable pursuant to the Corporate Conversion in respect of the Units held directly or indirectly by the Blocker Corporation immediately prior to such Roll-Up Transaction; provided, however, that no Initial Investor shall be entitled to effect a Roll-Up Transaction if (x) such Roll-Up Transaction would result in an adverse tax consequence to any Person (including the Company, the Reorganized Issuer or any Unitholder) other than the pre-transaction shareholders of the Blocker Corporation or (y) such Initial Investor’s Blocker Corporation has any liabilities at the time of such Roll-Up Transaction (other than immaterial liabilities relating to maintaining its corporate existence or activities incidental thereto).

REGISTRATION RIGHTS		Unitholders shall have the following registration rights: Piggyback Registration: Each Unitholder will have the right to participate on a pro rata basis in registered public offerings initiated by the Company, Centerbridge (which shall have unlimited demand registration rights) or any other Person, subject to underwriter cutbacks, lockups and other customary exceptions or limitations to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors. Demand Rights: Following the first anniversary of the consummation of an IPO, (x) Platinum shall be entitled to one (1) demand registration (other than a registration on Form S-3 or any equivalent successor form) and (y) each of the Minority Investors shall be entitled to unlimited demand registration rights for non-underwritten, resale shelf registrations on Form S-3 or any equivalent successor form (provided, that any such demand registration on Form S-3 (or any equivalent successor form) shall be an underwritten offering if the demanding Minority Investor


		agrees to pay its pro rata share of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company to deliver opinions, comfort letters and other deliverables that the underwriters require under the underwriting agreement), subject to customary exceptions or limitations to be agreed upon by the Supermajority Investors (including with respect to the number and frequency of any such underwritten offerings). Except with the prior approval of Supermajority Investors, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request the Company to register any Units or other equity securities unless such registration rights also permit the Minority Investors the right to participate in any such registration on a pro rata basis (based on the number of Units or other equity securities requested to be included in such registration) on a basis no less favorable to the Minority Investors than that of the party being granted such registration rights. The registration rights agreement (whether as a separate agreement or an agreement that is included directly into the Amended LLC Agreement) shall be in form and substance consistent with this term sheet and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Supermajority Investors.

BOARD REPRESENTATION		The Company shall be governed by the Board. Upon and following the Effective Date, the Board shall comprise such number of managers as determined by the Majority Unitholders (as defined below); provided that: (i) for so long as Centerbridge holds (A) at least seventy-five (75%) of the Units held by Centerbridge as of the Effective Date (subject to Adjustments), and (B) a greater percentage of the Units than any other Unitholder and its Affiliates and Related Funds, Centerbridge shall be entitled to appoint a majority of the members of the Board; (ii) the Board shall include the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) of the Company, and (iii) for so long as Platinum continues to hold at least seventy-five (75%) of the Units held by Platinum as of the Effective Date, the Board shall include one (1) member designated by the Majority Minority Investors (as defined below)(the “Majority Minority Designee”). Any committee of the Board shall include the Majority Minority Designee.

The Board shall meet at least once per calendar quarter.

Managers (acting in their capacity as such) shall have the same fiduciary duties as directors of a Delaware corporation; provided, however, that, subject to customary confidentiality (but not non-use) obligations in favor of the Company, the Unitholders (who are not also employees or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) and their Affiliates, directors, principals, officers, employees and/or other representatives (including any of the foregoing that may be a manager of the Company or a member of any Subsidiary Governing Body (as defined below)) may engage in, and have no duty or obligation to refer or offer to the Company or any of its Affiliates, any corporate (or analogous) or business opportunity, and the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company will renounce any interest or expectancy in any corporate (or analogous) or business opportunity which may be an opportunity for any of the foregoing Persons.

Except for any decision-making powers that the managers in their good faith and informed judgment deem appropriate to delegate to any (x) committee of the Board or any committee of a Subsidiary Governing Body or (y) officer of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, all decisions with respect to matters that are not in the ordinary course of business of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or that are material to the business and affairs of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (as applicable), shall be made by the Board or the applicable Subsidiary Governing Body.

Each manager shall be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of his or her duties as a manager.

In the event the Majority Minority Investors (as defined below) reasonably determine that the governance of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not being conducted by the Board as contemplated by this Agreement, at their election, the composition of the board of managers or other governing body of any Subsidiary of the Company (each, a “Subsidiary Governing Body”) shall include the Majority Minority Designee, subject in the case of non-U.S. Subsidiaries, to any applicable non-U.S. laws.

The Amended LLC Agreement will contain a customary voting agreement obligating each Unitholder to vote its voting Units in accordance with these terms.


		The “Majority Unitholders” means, at the time of determination, Unitholders holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the then-issued and outstanding Class A Units and Class B Units (taken together as a single class) at such time. The term “Majority Minority Investors” means, at the time of determination, Minority Investors holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the Units held by all Minority Investors (taken together as a single class) at such time.

BOARD OBSERVER		So long as Redwood holds at least of 100% of the Units held by Redwood on the Effective Date (subject to Adjustments), Redwood shall have the right to have one designated representative attend, as an observer in a non-voting capacity (an “Observer”), each meeting of the Board, each Subsidiary Governing Body and each committee of the Board and each Subsidiary Governing Body (each such meeting, a “Meeting”). The Observer shall be entitled to participate in discussions of any matters presented at any Meeting, but shall not be entitled to vote on any such matters.

II.

Rights Offering

To exercise its right to participate in the Rights Offering (the “Subscription Rights”), an Eligible Noteholder must complete the enclosed rights offering subscription exercise form (the “Rights Exercise Form”), which is being sent concurrently to each Eligible Noteholder entitling such holder to exercise its Subscription Rights. To fully exercise their Subscription Rights, the purchase price equals an Eligible Noteholder’s pro rata share of $80 million (the “Rights Exercise Price”), and each Eligible Noteholder may exercise all, some or none of that pro rata share. When any distribution of New Participating Preferred Units pursuant to the Rights Offering would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of New Participating Preferred Units that does not equal a number with a one-hundredths fraction, the actual distribution of New Participating Preferred Units will be rounded as follows: (a) units ending in .005 or greater shall be rounded to the next higher hundredths number; and (b) units ending in less than .005 shall be rounded to the next lower hundredths number with no further payment therefor and no cash shall be distributed in lieu of such fractional amounts.

The Subscription Rights shall not be transferable, assignable or detachable.

III.

The Equity Backstop

The Rights Offering will be backstopped by the Backstop Parties. Each of the Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, has agreed, pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, to subscribe for, and purchase, all New Participating Preferred Units that are not purchased by other Eligible Noteholders pursuant to the Rights Offering (the “Unsubscribed Units”) on a pro rata basis in accordance with the percentages set forth in Schedule 1(c) to the Backstop Agreement. As consideration for their commitment under the Backstop Agreement, the Backstop Parties will receive the Backstop Commitment Fee set forth in the Backstop Agreement.

There will be no over-subscription privilege in the Rights Offering. The Unsubscribed Units will not be offered to other Eligible Noteholders but will be purchased by the Backstop Parties in accordance with the Backstop Agreement.

IV.

Commencement/Expiration of the Rights Offering

The Rights Offering shall commence no later than December 23, 2011 (the “Rights Commencement Date”). The Rights Offering shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) on January 26, 2012, unless extended by the Company in its sole discretion (such date, as may be amended, the “Rights Expiration Date”).

The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished Rights Exercise Forms to the record holders of the Senior Notes, to the extent applicable, including, without limitation, brokers, banks, dealers, or other agents or nominees (the “Subscription Nominees”). Each Subscription Nominee will be entitled to receive sufficient copies of the Rights Exercise Form and the Offering Memorandum for distribution to the beneficial owners of the Senior Notes for whom such Subscription Nominee holds such Senior Notes.

V.	Exercise of Subscription Rights

Each Eligible Noteholder that elects to participate in the Rights Offering (in such capacity, a “Participating Eligible Noteholder”) must affirmatively make a binding, irrevocable election to exercise its Subscription Rights (the “Binding Rights Election”) before the Rights Expiration Date.

The Binding Rights Election, upon receipt by the Subscription Agent, cannot be withdrawn and will be applicable in both the out-of-court restructuring and any chapter 11 case (to the extent the Plan is confirmed).

Each Eligible Noteholder (other than the Backstop Parties) is entitled to participate in the Rights Offering solely to the extent provided in these Rights Offering Procedures. The Company will accept a Binding Rights Election by delivery of written notice to each Participating Eligible Noteholder and the Subscription Agent (the “Acceptance Notice”).

Exercise by Eligible Noteholders

To exercise the Subscription Rights, each Eligible Noteholder must (i) return a duly completed Rights Exercise Form to the Subscription Agent so that the duly completed Rights Exercise Form is actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Rights Expiration Date and (ii) pay to the Subscription Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Rights Exercise Price, so that payment of the Rights Exercise Price is actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on January 26, 2012 (the “Rights Offering Funding Deadline”); provided, that the Backstop Parties (in their capacities as Eligible Noteholders) shall not be required to pay their respective Rights Exercise Prices until the earlier of (A) the closing of the Rights Offering and (B) the effective date of the Plan, in each case, in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Effective Date”). Eligible Noteholders who exercise their Rights by returning a Rights Exercise Form and paying the Rights Exercise Price will become members of the reorganized Company and will be deemed to become party to, and be bound by, the Amended LLC Agreement at Closing.

In order to exercise its Subscription Rights, any Eligible Noteholder who owns its Senior Notes through a Subscription Nominee must return a duly completed Rights Exercise Form to its Subscription Nominee or otherwise instruct its Subscription Nominee as to its instructions for the Subscription Rights in accordance with procedures established by its Subscription Nominee, which, in turn, must comply with clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

For purposes of this Rights Offering, Wilmington Trust, N.A. (as successor to Wilmington Trust FSB), in its capacity as Indenture Trustee for the Senior Notes, shall not constitute a Subscription Nominee and shall have no responsibility with respect to sending any Rights Offering information or collecting any Rights Exercise Forms.

Deemed Representations and Acknowledgements

Any Eligible Noteholder that participates in the Rights Offering is deemed to have made the following representations and acknowledgements:

(i)

Such Noteholder recognizes and understands that the Subscription Rights are not transferable (see Section II above for details) and that the benefits of the Subscription Rights are not separable from the claim or securities with respect to which the Subscription Rights have been granted. Such Noteholder represents and acknowledges that it is an Eligible Noteholder.

(ii)

Such Noteholder represents and warrants that it will not accept a distribution of New Participating Preferred Units, if at such time, it does not own the Senior Notes and, by accepting a distribution of New Common Units or New Participating Preferred Units, such Noteholder will be deemed to be the owner thereof.

(iii)

Such Noteholder recognizes and understands that it has agreed to be bound by the Amended LLC Agreement.

Failure to Exercise Subscription Rights

Unexercised Subscription Rights will be relinquished on the Rights Expiration Date. If, on or prior to the Rights Expiration Date, the Subscription Agent for any reason does not receive from an Eligible Noteholder or its Subscription Nominee a duly completed Rights Exercise Form and counterpart signature page to the Amended LLC Agreement, such Eligible Noteholder shall be deemed to have irrevocably relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering.

Any attempt to exercise Subscription Rights after the Rights Expiration Date shall be null and void and the Company shall not be obligated to honor any such purported exercise received by the Subscription Agent after the Rights Expiration Date regardless of when the documents relating thereto were sent.

The method of delivery of the Rights Exercise Form and any other required documents is at each Eligible Noteholder’s option and sole risk, and delivery will be considered made only when actually received by the Subscription Agent. If delivery is by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is encouraged and strongly recommended. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery prior to 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) on the Rights Expiration Date.

Payment for Subscription Rights

If, on or prior to the Rights Offering Funding Deadline, the Subscription Agent for any reason does not receive on behalf of the Eligible Noteholder immediately available funds by wire transfer or bank cashier’s check in an amount equal to the total Rights Exercise Price for such Eligible Noteholder’s Subscription Rights, such Eligible Noteholder shall be deemed to have relinquished and waived its Subscription Rights; provided, that the Backstop Parties (in their capacities as Eligible Holders) shall not be required to pay their respective Rights Exercise Prices until the Effective Date.

Disputes, Waivers, and Extensions

Any and all disputes concerning the timeliness, viability, form and eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights shall be addressed in good faith by the Company in consultation with the Backstop Parties, the determinations of which shall be final and binding. The Company, with the approval of the Required Backstop Interest and subject to Bankruptcy Court approval (if applicable), may (i) waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected, within such times as it may determine in good faith to be appropriate or (ii) reject the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights for which the Rights Exercise Form and/or payment includes defects or irregularities. Rights Exercise Forms shall be deemed not to have been properly completed until all irregularities have been waived or cured. The Company reserves the right, with the approval of the Required Backstop Interest, to give notice to any Eligible Noteholder regarding any defect or irregularity in connection with any purported exercise of Subscription Rights by such Eligible Noteholder and the Company may, with the approval of the Required Backstop Interest, permit such defect or irregularity to be cured; it being understood, that none of the Company, the Subscription Agent or the Backstop Parties (or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors) shall incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

The Company, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court (if applicable) and the Required Backstop Interest, may (i) extend the duration of the Rights Offering or adopt additional detailed procedures to more efficiently administer the distribution and exercise of the Subscription Rights; and (ii) make such other changes to the Rights Offering, including changes that affect which parties constitute Eligible Noteholders.

Funds

The payments made to acquire New Participating Preferred Units pursuant to the Rights Offering (the “Rights Offering Funds”) shall be deposited when made and held by the Subscription Agent in escrow pending the consummation of the Restructuring in an account or accounts (i) which shall be separate and apart from the Subscription Agent’s general operating funds and any other funds subject to any lien, encumbrance or any cash collateral arrangements and (ii) which segregated account or accounts will be maintained for the purpose of holding the money for administration of the Rights Offering until the date of the consummation of the Restructuring. The Subscription Agent shall not use the Rights Offering Funds for any purpose other than to release the funds as directed by the Company on the date of the consummation of the Restructuring or as otherwise set forth in these Rights Offering Procedures or in the Plan and shall not permit the Rights Offering Funds to be encumbered by any lien, encumbrance or cash collateral obligation. No interest will be paid to Participating Eligible Noteholders on account of any amounts paid in connection with their exercise of Subscription Rights under any circumstances.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Backstop Party shall make all payments in connection with the Rights Offering directly to the Company on the date of the consummation of the Restructuring.

Participating Eligible Noteholder Release

Upon the Effective Date of the Plan or date of the consummation of the Restructuring, each Eligible Noteholder that participates in the Rights Offering shall be deemed, by virtue of such election, to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably and forever, released, acquitted and discharged the Company, the Released Parties (as such terms are defined in the Plan and Offering Memorandum) and the Subscription Agent to the same extent as set forth in the Term Sheet. The release set forth above does not release any post-Effective Date obligations of any party under the Plan or any document, instrument or agreement executed to implement the Plan.

VI.

Registration

The New Common Units will be issued to the Eligible Noteholders participating in the Exchange Offer and New Participating Preferred Units will be issued to the Eligible Noteholders participating in the Rights Offering, in each case, without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon an exemption from registration thereunder. There is not and there may never be a public market for the New Common Units or New Participating Preferred Units, and there are no guarantees that the Company will seek or be able to meet the eligibility requirements of any stock exchange or that a public market for the New Common Units or New Participating Preferred Units will ever develop. As a result, the New Common Units or New Participating Preferred Units issued in connection with the Exchange Offer and the Rights Offering, respectively, to the extent a certificate is issued in conjunction therewith, at the option of the Backstop Parties, may contain a restricted securities legend in form and substance substantially similar to the following:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND ACCORDINGLY THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT OF THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES, AND COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE ISSUER TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.

On the date of the consummation of the Restructuring, the Company and the Backstop Parties will execute the Amended LLC Agreement (as defined in the Backstop Agreement), which shall provide, among other things, that all holders of New Common Units and New Participating

Preferred Units shall be entitled to certain registration rights. The Plan, as applicable, will provide that such Amended LLC Agreement shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of Reorganized Aquilex with respect to certain holders of New Common Units and New Participating Preferred Units intended to benefit therefrom. All participating Eligible Noteholders will execute the Amended LLC Agreement and agree to be party thereto, which shall provide for certain rights, privileges and restrictions for the members of Reorganized Aquilex.

VII.

Rights Offering Conditioned Upon Consummation of the Restructuring; Reservation of Subscription Rights; Return of Rights Offering Amount

All exercises of Subscription Rights are subject to and conditioned upon the consummation of the Restructuring. The Company will accept a Binding Rights Election only upon (i) the successful closing of the Exchange Offer and Rights Offering pursuant to the out-of-court restructuring or (ii) the confirmation and consummation of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the Offering Memorandum or in the Plan to the contrary, the Company reserves the right, with the approval of the Required Backstop Interest, to modify these Rights Offering Procedures or adopt additional detailed procedures if necessary in the Company’s business judgment to more efficiently administer the distribution and exercise of the Subscription Rights or comply with applicable law.

In the event that the Restructuring is consummated through chapter 11 proceedings, and the Company revokes or withdraws the Plan, or the Effective Date of the Plan does not occur on or before April 30, 2012 (unless such date is extended in accordance with the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement) or the conditions precedent to the occurrence of the Effective Date shall not have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the Plan, the Subscription Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days of such event, return all amounts received from Eligible Noteholders, without any interest.

In the event that the Restructuring is not consummated out-of-court or through the Plan or the Company does not accept the Binding Rights Election, the Subscription Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, return all amounts received from Eligible Noteholders, without any interest.
