Xxxxxx Xxxxx Leibler
Ref: BNM: DLM 011720976
ABL/2636636v5

Second Deed of Amendment and Restatement | Page 4

(c)

the number of Performance Warrants and their convertibility to Warrant Shares will be reduced to the extent that the Borrower has affected a redemption of the Convertible Notes by 30 June 2013, on a pro-rata basis. For the avoidance of doubt, and as an example, if 50% of the Face Value of the Notes has been Redeemed on or before 30 June 2013, the reduction in the number of Performance Warrants and their convertibility to Warrant Shares will also be reduced by 50% on 30 June 2013;

(d)

any reduction in the number of Performance Warrants and their convertibility to Warrant Shares in (c) above will be shared by the Noteholders in their Respective Proportions;

(e)

the number of Performance Warrants reduced in accordance with (c) and (d) above will automatically be deemed void and cancelled and will not be capable of being exercised or exchanged into Shares of the Borrower;

(f)

each Performance Warrant will terminate on the date the Noteholder Warrants are due to terminate;

(g)

the Performance Warrants shall have an exercise or exchange price of Xx0.0000 Xxxxxxx Share but that exercise price shall decrease if the Borrower issues any Equity Securities which allows a person to acquire or hold Shares for a price that is less than the current exercise or exchange price then applicable under the Noteholders’ warrants (in which case the exercise or exchange price for the Noteholders’ warrants will decrease to match the per Share price implied by the Equity Security). “Equity Securities” means any Shares or any security, convertible instrument, warrant, derivative, or right to a person which may result the person being issued or holding Shares and includes, without limitation: (i) any share or right issued pursuant to any employee share option plan (however so described and whether or not such share or right is issued, authorized or reserved); (ii) any convertible debt or instrument; (iii) any options or warrants in respect of Shares; and (iv) any preference shares that are convertible into Shares; and (v) any combination of the above (for example, debt instruments or options that are convertible into preference shares that are convertible themselves into Shares); and

(h)

to the extent that the Borrower is not able to deliver the requisite number of Warrant Shares to the Noteholders following an exercise or exchange of the Performance Warrants, the Borrower shall pay to the Noteholders an amount determined by PFG to equal the Fair Value of the undelivered portion of the Performance Warrant. Such amount shall be payable in cash within 3 Business Days of the date that any failure to deliver the Shares occurs (Relevant Date). The “Fair Value” of the undelivered portion of the warrant will be determined by PFG using Black-Scholes European Option-Pricing Model (Black-Scholes Calculation) with the following assumptions: (A) a risk-free interest rate equal to the Australian Government 5 year coupon bond yield to maturity at the Relevant Date (or as close thereto as practicable), (B) a contractual life of the Warrant equal to the remaining term of the Warrant as of the Relevant Date, (C) an annual dividend yield equal to dividends declared on the underlying Shares during the term of this Warrant (calculated on an annual basis), and (D) a volatility based on the market price of the Shares over the one year period ending on the day prior to the Relevant Date.

(b)

amend the Exchange Price (as defined in each Noteholder Warrant) from A$0.053 to A$0.0275.

Default Interest and Fees

(a)

The Obligors acknowledge and agree that as at 31 December 2012, USD$$116,061 of additional default interest has accrued at the Default Rate under the Original Agreement (and the for avoidance of doubt, this amount excludes ordinary interest that has accrued under Note Condition 2.1 in respect of the same period) (Default Interest).

1.8 Late Fee. Subject to Convertible Note Condition 2.2, if any payment of accrued interest for any month is not made within three (3) business days after the date it is due, or if any payment of principal or any other payment is not made within three (3) Business Days after the date due, then Borrower shall pay PFG a late payment administrative fee equal to 5% of the amount of such late payment in the first and second instances of late payment and 10% of the amount of each third or more late payment occurring thereafter. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed as PFG’s consent to Borrower’s failure to pay any amounts when due, and PFG’s acceptance of any such late payments shall not restrict PFG’s exercise of any rights remedies arising out of any such failure.

1. 9 Purpose. The proceeds from the subscription of all Convertible Notes are to be used by Borrower for: (i) refinancing and repaying all amounts outstanding under the HSBC Loan and part of the Permitted Indebtedness; (ii) payment to Renewable Energy Systems Limited (or its Related Bodies Corporate) in respect of the TaraIga wind farm project; and (iii)general working capital purposes and for any other purpose to which PFG consents (acting reasonably).

If a Convertible Note Certificate is lost or destroyed, Borrower must issue a duplicate Convertible Note Certificate in its place on application in writing by the relevant Noteholder accompanied by the following: (i) a statutory declaration or such other evidence as Borrower may reasonably require that: (A) the Convertible Note Certificate has been lost or destroyed; and (B) if the Convertible Note Certificate has been lost, proper searches for it have been made; and (ii) a written undertaking that if the original Convertible Note Certificate is found or received by the relevant Noteholder, it will be returned to Borrower.

2.6 Reinstatement of rights. Under laws relating to Insolvency, a person may claim that a transaction (including a payment) in connection with a guarantee or indemnity in this Section 2 or the Obligations are void or voidable.

Rights given to the Noteholders under the guarantee and indemnity in this Section 2 and the joint and several liability of the Obligors are not affected by any act or omission or any other thing which might otherwise affect them under law or otherwise. For example, those rights and liabilities are not affected by: (i) any act or omission: (A) varying or replacing in any way and for any reason any agreement or arrangement under which the Obligations are expressed to be owing (such as by adding, replacing or changing the purpose of any financial accommodation provided by a Facility Document, increasing the Credit Limit or extending the term of any financial accommodation including in connection with a restructuring or refinancing of the Obligations or substituting the Noteholders for a subsequent financier) requiring performance; (B) releasing an Obligor or giving an Obligor a concession (such as more time to pay); (C) releasing any person who gives a guarantee or indemnity in connection with any of the Obligors’ obligations; (D) releasing, losing the benefit of, or not obtaining any Security Interest or negotiable instrument; (E) by which a person becomes an Obligor after the date of this guarantee and indemnity; (F) by which the obligations of any person who guarantees any of the Obligations (including under this guarantee) may not be enforceable; (G) by which any person who was intended to guarantee any of the Obligations does not do so, or does not do so effectively; (H) by which a person who is a co-surety or co-indemnifier for payment of the Obligations is discharged under an agreement or by operation of law; or (I) by which any Security Interest which could be registered is not registered; (ii) a person dealing in any way with a Security Interest, guarantee, indemnity, judgment or negotiable instrument; (iii) the Insolvency of any person including an Obligor; (iv) changes in the membership, name or business of any person; (v) acquiescence or delay by PFG or any other person; or (vi) an assignment of rights in connection with the Obligations.

2.8 Borrower’s rights are suspended. As long as there are any Obligations (or any other amounts secured by any Security Interest that secures amounts including the Obligations), no Obligor may, without PFG’s consent: (i) reduce its liability under this Agreement or the guarantee and indemnity in this Section 2 by claiming that it or an Obligation or any other person has a right of set-off or counterclaim against PFG; or (ii) exercise any legal right to claim to be entitled to the benefit of another guarantee, indemnity, or Security Interest that secures amounts or obligations, including the Obligations, or any other amount payable or obligation to be performed under this Agreement. (For example, an Obligor may not try to enforce or require the enforcement of any Security Interest PFG has taken that secures amounts or Obligations); or (iii) claim an amount from another Obligor under a right of indemnity or contribution; or (iv) claim an amount in the Insolvency of another Borrower.

2.9 Borrower’s right of proof limited. Each Obligor agrees not to exercise a right of proof after an event occurs relating to the Insolvency of another Obligor or another guarantor of the Obligations independently of any attorney appointed under this Agreement.

2.10 No set-off against assignees. If PFG or any Other Noteholder assigns or otherwise deals with its rights under this Agreement, each Obligor may not claim against any assignee (or any other person who has an interest in this guarantee) any right of set-off or other right the Obligor has against PFG or any Other Noteholder other than payments in accordance with the Facility Documents having discharged its obligation to pay that amount.

2.11 Suspense account. If an Event of Default is subsisting, a Noteholder may place in a suspense account any payment they receive from an Obligor for as long as it thinks prudent (acting reasonably) and need not immediately apply it towards satisfying its Relevant Proportions of Obligations (so long as such amount is ultimately deemed an amount received towards satisfying the Obligations at the time of receipt or returned to the Borrower).

2.12 Right to prove. Each Obligor irrevocably appoints PFG and each of its Officers individually as its attorney (and agrees to formally approve all action taken by an attorney) to: (i) do anything which an Obligor may lawfully do to exercise their right of proof after an event relating to Insolvency occurs in respect of the Borrower or any Guarantor. (These things may be done in the relevant Obligor’s name or the attorney’s name and they include signing and delivering documents, taking part in legal proceedings and receiving any dividend arising out of the right of proof); and (ii) delegate its powers (including this power) and may revoke a delegation; and (iii) exercise its powers even if this involves a conflict of duty and even if it has a personal interest in doing so. The attorney need not account to any Obligor for any dividend received on exercising the right of proof under Section 2.12(i) except to the extent that any dividend remains after PFG has received repayment and performance of all of the Obligations.

Each Obligor will give PFG at least 10 days prior written notice before opening any additional place of business, changing its chief executive office, or moving any of the Secured Property to a location other than another Obligor’s Address or one of the locations set forth in the Representations Letter, except that an Obligor may open and maintain sales offices in the ordinary course of business at which not more than a total of A$200,000 fair market value of Equipment (per office) is located and the Representations Letter shall be amended to reflect such change.

3.4 Title to Secured Property; Perfection; Permitted Security Interests.

(a) Each Obligor is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of the Secured Property under any Security given by it. The Secured Property now is and will remain free and clear of any and all Security Interests, except for Permitted Security Interests. Following completion of this Agreement and the Facility Documents, PFG (as trustee under the Security Trust Deed) will, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Secured Property, subject only to the Permitted Security Interests, and Borrower will at all times defend PFG and the Secured Property against all other Security Interests, other than Permitted Security Interests.

(b) Borrower has set forth in the Representations Letter all of the Deposit Accounts, and Borrower will give PFG three (3) Business Days written notice before establishing any new Deposit Accounts.

(c) In the event that an Obligor shall at any time after the date hereof have any commercial tort claims against others, which it is asserting, and in which the potential recovery exceeds A$250,000, Borrower shall promptly notify PFG thereof in writing and provide PFG with such information regarding the same as PFG shall reasonably request (unless providing such information would waive the Borrower’s attorney-client privilege). Any Obligor is permitted to take all necessary urgent or ex parte action it sees fit in relation to any such claim so as to preserve and protect the nature of the claim without providing notification to PFG under this Section 3.4(c) provided that: (i) notice is provided to PFG as soon as is reasonably practicable and in any event with in three (3) Business Days of any such action being taken; and (ii) any indemnity for costs or undertaking as to damages that is required to be given by Borrower in relation to such action is not expected to exceed A$250,000.

(d) No non-trivial Secured Property now is or will be affixed to any real property in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. No Obligor is and, without PFG’s consent, no Obligor will become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the lessor may obtain any rights in any non-trivial amount of Secured Property and no such lease now prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair an Obligor’s right to remove any such Secured Property from the leased premises. Whenever any Secured Property is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest, Borrower shall, whenever requested by PFG, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such third party to execute and deliver to PFG, in form reasonably acceptable to PFG, such waivers and subordinations as PFG shall specify (acting reasonably). The Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all material terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Secured Property now or in the future may be located.

3.5 Maintenance of Secured Property. Each Obligor will maintain the Secured Property in good working condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and the Obligors will not use the Secured Property for any unlawful purpose. The Obligors will immediately advise PFG in writing of any material loss or damage to the Secured Property.

No claims are or are reasonably likely to be asserted against the Obligors with respect to any unpaid Taxes and Borrower has paid or procured the payment of all Taxes payable by them, in each case other than Tax payable by an Obligor where the Obligor: (i) in good faith and in accordance with proper procedures, is contesting its liability to pay that Tax; (ii) is not required by applicable law to pay that Tax before contesting its liability to pay the Tax; and (iii) has satisfied PFG that it has set aside sufficient reserves of liquid assets to pay that Tax and any fine, penalty or interest payable if the contest is unsuccessful.

Borrower is unaware of any material claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax years which could result in a material amount (which for the avoidance of doubt means any amount in excess of A$50,000) of additional taxes becoming due and payable by the Borrower or any Obligor other than (1) A liability incurred prior to the Borrower’s ownership of eco-Kinetics Victoria, in respect of approximately A$450,000 of Taxes for the 6 months ended 31 December 2009 and (2) Correspondence with the Australian Taxation Office in respect of the GST treatment of Renewable Energy Certificates,

Each Obligor has, to the best of its knowledge, complied, and will comply, in all material respects, with all laws applicable to and binding on the Obligor, including, but not limited to, those relating to Obligor’s ownership of real or personal property, the conduct and licensing of the Group’s business, and all environmental matters.

3.10 Litigation. There is no claim, suit, litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or (to best of the Obligors’ knowledge) threatened against or affecting any Obligor in any court or before any governmental agency (or any basis therefor known to any Obligor) which would reasonably be expected to result, either separately or in the aggregate, in any Material Adverse Change other than a potential claim by Goldwind. Each obligor will promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) inform PFG in writing of any claim, proceeding, litigation or investigation in the future threatened or instituted against Borrower involving any single claim of A$250,000 or more, or involving A$500,000 or more in the aggregate.

3.11 No Default. As at Financial Close, no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred, and no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default will have occurred after the subscription by the Noteholders of the Convertible Notes. Borrower shall give PFG immediate (but in any event within two (2) Business Days) written notice of any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default upon becoming Aware of its occurrence and provide PFG with all details relating to such Potential Event of Default or Event of Default (as the case may be).

Convertible Note Facility Agreement

8.14 Benefit of Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs, beneficiaries and representatives of Borrower and PFG; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of PFG, and any prohibited assignment shall be void. No consent by PFG to any assignment shall release Borrower from its liability for the Obligations. Each Noteholder may assign, novate, transfer, sub-participate or otherwise dispose of or deal with all or any part of its rights or obligations under a Facility Document without being required to obtain the consent of the Obligors or to provide any prior notice to the Obligors (and in these circumstances, the Obligors will execute such documents and do such acts as may reasonably be required by the Noteholders so long as the Obligor's rights or obligations under this document are not adversely affected). The Borrower represents and warrants that while its Shares are listed on NASDAQ, other than restrictions on transfer as may apply under the US securities laws, there are no restrictions on transfer applicable to the Shares (following Conversion) and no opinion of counsel shall be required of PFG for removal of any restrictive legends applicable to the Conversion Shares,

8.15 Joint and Several Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one Person, their liability shall be joint and several, and the compromise of any claim with, or the release of, any Borrower shall not constitute a compromise with, or a release of, any other Borrower.

8.16 Limitation of Actions. Any claim or cause of action by Borrower against a Noteholder, its directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants or attorneys, based upon, arising from, or relating to this Agreement, or any other Facility Document, or any other transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or relating hereto or thereto, or any other matter, cause or thing whatsoever, incurred, done, omitted or suffered to be done by a Noteholder, its directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants or attorneys, shall be barred unless asserted by Borrower by the commencement of an action or proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction by: (a) the filing of a complaint within one year after the earlier to occur of: (i) the first act, occurrence or omission upon which such claim or cause of action, or any part thereof, is based; or (ii) the date this Agreement is terminated; and (b) the service of a summons and complaint on an officer of the Noteholder, or on any other person authorized to accept service on behalf of the Noteholder, within thirty (30) days thereafter. Borrower agrees that such one-year period is a reasonable and sufficient time for Borrower to investigate and act upon any such claim or cause of action. The one-year period provided herein shall not be waived, tolled, or extended except by the written consent of PFG in its sole discretion. This provision shall survive any termination of this Agreement or any other Facility Document.

8.17 Correction of Facility Documents. PFG may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Facility Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties so long as PFG provides the Borrower with written notice of such correction and allows Borrower at least ten (10) days to object to such correction. In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment signed by both PFG and Borrower.

8.18 Paragraph Headings; Construction. Paragraph headings are only used in this Agreement for convenience. Borrower and PFG acknowledge that the headings may not describe completely the subject matter of the applicable paragraph, and the headings shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit, define or interpret any term or provision of this Agreement. This Agreement has been fully reviewed and negotiated between the parties and no uncertainty or ambiguity in any term or provision of this Agreement shall be construed strictly against PFG or Borrower under any rule of construction or otherwise. References to "Borrower" are construed to mean "each Borrower", unless otherwise expressly specified. Amounts set off in brackets or parentheses are negative. The word "shall" is mandatory, the word "may" is permissive, and the word "or" is not exclusive. Identical terms in a Schedule shall be governed by the terms of the applicable Schedule.

8.19 Withholding; Gross-up. All payments to be made by Borrower under this Agreement, whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall (save insofar as required by law to the contrary) be paid in full without any set-off or counterclaim and free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding or payment for or on account of any taxes that may be imposed in Australia or in any other jurisdiction from which payment may be made by Borrower under this Agreement. If Borrower shall be required by law to effect any deduction or withholding or payment as aforesaid from or in connection with any payment made under this Agreement for the account of a Noteholder then: (a) Borrower shall promptly notify PFG upon becoming aware of the relevant requirements to deduct any such deduction or withholding or payment; (b) Borrower shall ensure that such deduction or withholding or payment does not exceed the minimum legal liability therefor, shall remit the amount of such tax to the appropriate taxation authority and shall forthwith pay to the Noteholder such additional amount as will result in the immediate receipt by the Noteholder of the full amount which would otherwise have been receivable hereunder had no such deduction or withholding or payment been made; and (c) Borrower shall not later than 50 days after each deduction or withholding or payment of any taxes forward to PFG documentary evidence reasonably required by PFG in respect of the payment of any such taxes.

8.22 PFG as administrator.

(a) Except in relation to: (i) the obligation of a Noteholder to subscribe for a Convertible Note; or (ii) the decision by a Noteholder to convert some or all of their Convertible Notes (“Reserved Matters”), each Noteholder agrees that PFG is irrevocably appointed to act as administrator and controller in respect of the Facility Documents and shall have the sole discretion to exercise any rights, obligations or discretions under this Agreement without consultation with or prior written approval by the Noteholders (and PFG need not seek the instructions of, or consult with, any Noteholder (but may do so)).

(b) Except with respect to Reserved Matters, any action taken by PFG under a Facility Document binds all Noteholders. The parties agree that no Obligor need to enquire whether any instructions from Noteholders have been given to PFG or as to the terms of those instructions in respect of any action or decision taken by PFG under a Facility Document (except with respect to Reserved Matters).

(c) The Noteholders agree and acknowledge that PFG owes no fiduciary or other duty or responsibility except as expressly provided in a Facility Document. PFG and its officers, employees, agents, attorneys and are neither responsible to, nor will be liable (whether in negligence or on any other ground) in respect of, any of the following whether before or after the date of this Agreement: (i) any conduct relating to any loan proposal, prospectus, offering circular, information memorandum or other information, any document or agreement or any transaction; (ii) the value, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any document or agreement or any transaction; (iii) any default by any Obligor; and (iv) any action taken or not taken by it or them under any Facility Document except in the case of its or their own wilful misconduct or gross negligence. PFG may be a Noteholder in its private or another capacity. As a Noteholder, PFG has the same rights as any other Noteholder. The Noteholders acknowledge and agree that they have made will continue to make, independently and without reliance on PFG or any other Noteholder its own investigations of the Obligors its own analyses and decisions whether to enter the Facility Documents or to take or not take action under them. PFG shall provide to each Noteholder a copy of each material notice, report and other document given to it under any Facility Document (and each Obligor authorises PFG to do so).

(d) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, no Noteholder is obliged to fund ay shortfall or have any obligation in relation to another Noteholder's failure to subscribe for their Respective Proportions of Convertible Notes.

(e) All decisions regarding the response to an Event of Default, including without limitation the decision to institute legal proceedings against the Borrower or any Guarantor, to require the Convertible Notes to be Redeemed, or to exercise any other rights or remedies with respect to, the Facility Documents or the Secured Property, shall be made by PFG in its sole discretion. Each Other Noteholder hereby irrevocably undertakes to PFG that it will not take or attempt to take or join any action (including any demand or court application) in relation to the Facility Documents which is inconsistent with, interferes with, or otherwise seeks to hinder, frustrate or prevent the exercise of any rights or remedies by PFG in relation to the Facility Documents or the Secured Property.
