(g) Article II of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new Section 2.17 thereto to read as follows:
Section 2.17 Increase in Aggregate Revolving Commitments.
(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments by an amount not exceeding $20,000,000; provided that any such request shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in whole multiples of $2,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if less,
3
the entire remaining amount of the increase provided for in this Section 2.17). At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Revolving Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Revolving Lenders).
(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Revolving Pro Rata Share of such requested increase. Any Revolving Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment.
(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Revolving Lender of the Revolving Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Revolving Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement (“New Revolving Lenders”) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.
(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Revolving Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section 2.17, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders and any New Revolving Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date.
(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents (i) that contain a materiality qualification, are true and correct, on and as of the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date and (ii) that do not contain a materiality qualification, are true and correct in all material respects, on and as of the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, and except that for purposes of this Section, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) both before and after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, no Default exists. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Loans outstanding on the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent
4
necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Revolving Pro Rata Shares arising from any non-ratable increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.17.
(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section 2.17 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.
(h) Section 7.12(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
(b) Debt to Capitalization Ratio. Permit the Debt to Capitalization Ratio at the end of any Fiscal Quarter commencing on and after September 30, 2015 to exceed 0.25 to 1.00 at any time.
(i) Schedule 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to be in the form of Schedule 1.01 attached to this Sixth Amendment.
(j) Schedule 2.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to be in the form of Schedule 2.01 attached to this Sixth Amendment.
(k) Schedule 5.13 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to be in the form of Schedule 5.13 attached to this Sixth Amendment.
(l) Exhibit G, the Compliance Certificate, is hereby amended to be in the form of Exhibit G attached to this Sixth Amendment.
2. WAIVER. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness to this Sixth Amendment set forth in Section 4 hereof, the Lenders hereby waive the Event of Default that occurred under Section 8.01(c) of the Credit Agreement as a result of the failure of the Borrower to cause 65% of the Equity Interests of PowerSecure Canada Energy Services, Inc., a British Columbia company (“PowerSecure Canada”), to be pledged to secure the Secured Obligations within the time required by Section 6.14 of the Credit Agreement.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. By its execution and delivery hereof, the Borrower represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the waiver provided in Section 2 hereof:

(e) no authorization, approval, consent, or other action by, notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person not previously obtained is required for (i) the execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower, of this Sixth Amendment or the New Revolving Loan Notes or (ii) the acknowledgement and reaffirmation by each Guarantor of this Sixth Amendment.
