NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment (including, without limitation, in the recitals hereto) without definition shall have the respective meanings specified in the Loan Agreement.
2. Forgiveness of Certain Obligations. Lender hereby forgives Borrower’s obligation to repay $16,000,000 of the principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Advances.
3. Conversion of Certain Obligations to Equipment Loan. Lender hereby converts the amount of the outstanding Revolving Advances in excess of $16,000,000 as of the date of this Amendment into the Equipment Loan.
4. Amendments to Revolving Line.
A. Amendment of Borrowing Base to Remove Equipment. Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Borrowing Base” so that it reads in full as follows:
“Borrowing Base” means, at any time, 85% of Borrowers’ Eligible Accounts.
B. Reduction of Revolving Line. Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Maximum Revolving Advance Amount” so that it reads in full as follows:
“Maximum Revolving Advances Limit” means $1,000,000.
C. Elimination of Letter of Credit Sub-Facility. The Letter of Credit Sub-Facility is hereby terminated. Any issued and outstanding irrevocable Letters of Credit may remain outstanding through its expiry date, but Lender shall not issue any additional Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower.
5. Maturity of Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the definition of “Revolving Loan Maturity Date” or any other provision of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, the entire principal amount of Revolving Advances, the entire principal amount of the Equipment Loan, all interest accrued on the Revolving Advances and the Equipment Loan, all accrued and unpaid fees, all outstanding Lender Expenses, and all other Obligations shall be due and payable in full on October 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”).

All PIK Interest shall accrue until, and shall be payable in full on, the Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrowers may not request that any Revolving Advances or any portion of the Equipment Loan bear interest on the basis of LIBOR.
7. Optional Loan Prepayments. Borrowers may prepay the principal amount of the Revolving Advances and the Equipment Loan at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.
8. Conditional Mandatory Principal Payments. In addition to their obligation to pay all outstanding principal on the Revolving Advances and the Equipment Loan on the Maturity Date, if as of the last day of any month, commencing with the month ending October 31, 2020, the aggregate balance of Borrowers’ cash on deposit in deposit accounts at Lender is greater than the aggregate gross receipts of equity sold by Enservco after September 18, 2020, then, no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the immediately following month, Borrowers’ excess cash shall be applied first to reduce the principal amount of outstanding Revolving Advances, if needed, and then, if any surplus funds remain, to reduce the principal balance of the Equipment Loan.
9. Deferral of Minimum Liquidity Covenant; Elimination of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant. Section 6.7 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

10. Reduction of Capital Expenditures Limit. Section 7.12 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:
“7.12 Capital Expenditure Limitations. Borrowers shall not make any Capital Expenditure if, after giving effect to such Capital Expenditure, the aggregate cost of all Capital Expenditures made by Borrowers, collectively, in any Fiscal Year would exceed $1,200,000. For any Fiscal Year, in addition to making Capital Expenditures in an aggregate amount of up to $1,200,000 for such Fiscal Year, Borrowers may carry over to, and use in, such Fiscal Year any unused permitted Capital Expenditures allocation from the immediately preceding Fiscal Year.
11. Initial Shares and Warrants. In consideration of the accommodations granted by Lender to Borrowers hereunder, on the effective date of this Amendment, Enservco shall:
(a) Grant the Initial Shares to Lender pursuant to a subscription agreement in form and substance mutually and reasonably satisfactory to Enservco and Lender (the “Equity Agreement”); and
(b) Enter into a warrant agreement for the Warrant Shares in form and substance mutually and reasonably satisfactory to Enservco and Lender (the “Warrant Agreement”)..

Enservco agrees to reasonably assist Lender in reselling some or all of the Initial Shares, including by holding at least one road show presentation.
13. Covenants Not to Dispose of Enservco Shares. Lender hereby agrees to not dispose of any of the Initial Shares until the date six months after the date of this Amendment. By its signature below, Cross River hereby agrees not to dispose of any of its current holdings of shares of common stock of Enservco until the Sale Block Deadline. Cross River and Borrowers acknowledge and agree that a breach of this Section 13 by Cross River shall constitute an Event of Default.
14. Additional Equity Offerings. Enservco shall seek to raise additional equity from third parties under its existing registration statement on Form S-3 (which contains a maximum of $8,000,000 of registered securities) and other registration statements as may be filed in the future in an aggregate amount at least equal to projected working capital needs of Borrowers through the amended term of the Loan Agreement. Enservco also shall continue to seek any other public and private financing that may involve financing in addition to proceeds under its existing S-3 registration statement. Lender will not object to Enservco’s arrangements with third party capital providers, provided that such arrangements do not materially impact Lender’s security interests in Collateral for the Obligations.
15. Waiver of Existing Events of Default. Lender hereby waives each of the Existing Events of Default. Such waiver shall constitute a waiver of only the Existing Events of Default and shall not excuse Borrowers’ compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.7 of the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, for any covenant test date after September 30, 2020.
16. Amendment of Borrowing Base Certificate Exhibit. Exhibit D to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in full as set forth on Exhibit D to this Amendment.

(g) Headings. The headings, captions and arrangements used in this Amendment are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Amendment.
