This
Secured Promissory Note (this "Note") is made and delivered pursuant to that
certain Credit Facility Agreement dated as of September 19, 2006 between Solar
Power, Inc., a California corporation (“Borrower”) and Solar Power, Inc.,
formerly Welund Fund, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Lender” or “Holder”), as such
may be amended from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"). Unless otherwise
defined herein, all capitalized terms used in this Note shall have the same
meanings that are given to such terms in the Credit Agreement, the terms of
which are incorporated into this Note by reference.
1.
Obligation.
The
Borrower hereby promises to pay to the order of Lender or Holder on or before
the Maturity Date, at Lender's principal place of business, or at such other
place as Holder may direct, the principal sum of Two hundred thirty-five
thousand dollars ($235,000.00) or so much thereof as may be advanced and
outstanding, together with all interest accrued on unpaid principal, to be
computed on each Advance from the date of its disbursement to Borrower, at
a
rate equal to eight percent (8%) simple interest per annum, as provided in
the
Credit Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with
accrued interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity
Date.
The outstanding unpaid principal balance of this Note at any time shall be
the
total principal amounts advanced hereunder by Holder less the amounts of
payments of principal made hereon by Borrower, which balance may be endorsed
hereon from time to time by Holder in accordance with Section 2.
2.
Recording
Advances and Payments.
Holder
is authorized to record on Schedule A hereto, and on any continuation(s) of
such
Schedule that may be attached to this Note: (a) the date and principal amount
of
each Advance by Lender under the Credit Agreement; and (b) the date and amount
of each payment or prepayment of principal and/or accrued interest of any
Advance; which recordation will constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy
of the information so endorsed on Schedule A; provided however, that any failure
to record such information on such Schedule or continuation thereof will not
in
any manner affect the obligations of Borrower to make payments of principal
and
interest in accordance with the terms of this Note. Holder will promptly provide
Borrower with a copy of each recordation made by Holder on Schedule A attached
hereto.
3.
Security.
This
Note is subject to a Security Agreement executed September 19, 2006 between
Lender as the Secured party and Borrower as Debtor.
4.
Prepayment.
Prepayment of unpaid principal and/or interest due under this Note may be made
at any time without penalty as specified in the Credit Agreement. Unless
otherwise agreed in writing by Holder, all payments will be made in lawful
tender of the United States and will be applied (a) first, to the payment of
accrued interest, and (b) second, (to the extent that the amount of such
prepayment exceeds the amount of all such accrued interest), to the payment
of
principal.

5.
Default,
Acceleration of Obligation.

may
pursue any legal or equitable remedies that are available to Holder, and may
declare the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note and all unpaid accrued
interest under this Note to be immediately due and payable in full.
7.
Waiver
and Amendment.

by
Borrower, no waiver or consent with respect to this Note will be binding or
effective unless it is set forth in writing and signed by the party against
whom
such waiver is asserted. No course of dealing between Borrower and Holder will
operate as a waiver or modification of any party's rights or obligations under
this Note. No delay or failure on the part of either party in exercising any
right or remedy under this Note will operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right. A waiver given on one occasion will not be construed as a bar
