Within the limits of the Lender’s Commitment, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.01.

Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Lender will make the funds available to the Borrower at its address referred to in Section 7.02.

(b) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by the Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Lender to fund the Advance when the Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

SECTION 2.03. Fees. (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a commitment fee computed at the rate of 1.00% per annum on the amount of the Lender's Unused Commitment from the date hereof until the Termination Date, payable quarterly in arrears and on the Maturity Date.

(b) Arrangement Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay the Lender a fee in the amount of EUR 375,000 (the “Arrangement Fee”) along with all other accrued fees, costs and expenses of the Lender (including the accrued fees and expenses of counsel to the Lender), such fees becoming due on the Effective Date and payable upon the earliest of (i) the date of the first Borrowing hereunder and (ii) 10 Business Days after the date hereof.

SECTION 2.04. Continuation of Advances. Unless the Borrower provides written notice to the Lender of its intention to repay any maturing Advance on the last day of its Interest Period (such notice to be given not later than 11:00 A.M. (Milan time) on the third Business Day prior to the last day of such Interest Period), the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a continuation of such maturing Advances for an additional Interest Period. If notice of the repayment is given in accordance with the preceding sentence as to any maturing Advance, such Advance shall be repaid on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. The Borrower shall repay to the Lender on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding.

SECTION 2.05. Interest on Advances. i) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to the Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period to the sum of (x) EURIBOR for such Interest Period plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time plus (z) Mandatory Costs, if any, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and on the date such Advance shall be paid in full.

(b) Default Interest.

SECTION 2.06. Interest Rate Determination. If the Lender determines in good faith that EURIBOR for any Interest Period for any Advance will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lender of making, funding or maintaining its Advance for such Interest Period, the Lender shall forthwith so notify the Borrower. During the 15 days next succeeding the giving of such notice, the Borrower and the Lender shall negotiate in good faith in order to arrive at a mutually satisfactory interest rate which shall be applicable during such Interest Period to the Advance. If within such 15-day period, the Borrower and the Lender agree in writing upon an alternative interest rate, such rate shall be effective from the commencement of such Interest Period. If the Borrower and the Lender fail to agree upon such an alternative interest rate within such 15-day period, the interest rate during such Interest Period applicable to the Advance effective from the commencement of such Interest Period shall be such rate as the

Lender shall determine (in a certificate delivered by the Lender to the Borrower setting forth the basis of the computation of such amount, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error) to be necessary to compensate the Lender for its cost of obtaining (in good faith and using commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the interest cost to the Borrower) as of the commencement of such Interest Period funds for such Interest Period in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Advance plus the Applicable Margin. The Lender shall notify the Borrower of each such determination as promptly as practicable.

SECTION 2.07. Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Lender, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Unused Commitment; provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in a minimum amount of EUR 1,000,000 or an integral multiple of EUR 1,000,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 2.08. Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayments of Advances. (a) The Borrower shall have the right to voluntarily prepay in whole or in part, the Advances, without premium or penalty, and (but subject to breakage costs) subject to payment of all accrued interest on the prepaid amounts; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction shall be in a minimum of EUR 1,000,000 or an integral multiple of EUR 1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lender in respect thereof pursuant to Section 7.04(c).

(b) If for any reason, a Material Adverse Change shall occur, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of the first occurrence of such occurrence or event, make a mandatory prepayment in respect of the Advances in an amount equal to the full amount of the Advances then outstanding at which time the Commitment shall terminate.

SECTION 2.09. Increased Costs and Increased Capital. (b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental or regulatory authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender in an amount that the Lender deems material of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining its Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.09 any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.12 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which the Lender is organized or has its Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by the Lender, pay to the Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by the Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If the Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental or regulatory authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender or such corporation in light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.10. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender determines that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Advances or to

fund or maintain Advances hereunder, the Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist the obligation of the Lender to make any Advance shall be suspended and (b) if the Lender shall so request in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding Advances, together with accrued interest thereon (and subject to break costs); provided, however, that before making any such demand, the Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow the Lender or its Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Advances and would not, in the judgment of the Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender. Any amount prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.10 may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.11. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 11:00 A.M.

(c) All computations of interest and fees shall be made by the Lender on the basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Whenever any payment under the Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any Advance to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

SECTION 2.12. Taxes (a) Any and all payments made to the Lender under the Loan Documents or under any instrument delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11 or the applicable provisions of such other instrument, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present and future taxes (including, without limitation, value-added taxes and withholding taxes), levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the Lender, taxes imposed on the Lender’s overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Lender is organized or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of the Lender's Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the applicable Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under the Loan Documents or under any other instrument to be delivered hereunder or thereunder to the Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12), the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the applicable Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made under the Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or

This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Lender makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the applicable Loan Party shall furnish to the Lender, at its address referred to in Section 7.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Loan Parties or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties contained in Sections 2.09, 2.12, 7.04, 7.08, 7.10, 7.11 and 7.12 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder.

The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Loan Parties after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Commitment, the Advances owing to it); provided, however, that (i) any assignment to a Person (other than an Affiliate of the Lender) shall require the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no such consent shall be required) and (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance. Upon such execution and delivery, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of the Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.09, 2.12 and 7.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto.

(b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Loan Parties or the performance or observance by the Loan Parties of any of their obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of each Loan Document, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon such assigning Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; and (v) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as the Lender.

(c) The Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it); provided, however, that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iv) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Advance or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Advance or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation.

(d) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

EXISTING LITIGATION

In November 2009, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Audit Committee”) initiated an independent investigation regarding certain unsubstantiated accounting entries. The Audit Committee announced the results of its investigation in March 2010. For information regarding the Audit Committee's investigation, see Part I - “Item 1: Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 1,” and “Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Restatement of Previously Issued Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of Parent’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 3, 2010, and Parent's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2010. For a description of the control deficiencies identified by management as a result of the investigation and Parent's internal reviews, and management's plan to remediate those deficiencies, see Part I - “Item 4: Controls and Procedures” of Parent’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 3, 2010.

Three securities class action lawsuits were filed against Parent and certain of Parent’s current and former officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of a class consisting of those who acquired Parent’s securities from April 17, 2008 through November 16, 2009. The cases were consolidated as Xxxxxxx v. SunPower Corp. et al., Case No. CV-09-5473-RS (N.D. Cal.), and lead plaintiffs and lead counsel were appointed on March 5, 2010. Lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on May 28, 2010. The actions arise from the Audit Committee's investigation announcement on November 16, 2009. The consolidated complaint alleges that the defendants made material misstatements and omissions concerning Parent's financial results for 2008 and 2009, seeks an unspecified amount of damages, and alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. Parent believes it has meritorious defenses to these allegations and will vigorously defend itself in these matters. The court held a hearing on the defendant's motions to dismiss the consolidated complaint on November 4, 2010, and took the motions under submission. Parent's management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of the lawsuits will not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Derivative actions purporting to be brought on behalf of Parent have also been filed in state and federal courts against several of Parent’s current and former officers and directors based on the same events alleged in the securities class action lawsuits described above. The California state derivative cases were consolidated as In re SunPower Corp. S'holder Derivative Litig., Lead Case No. 1-09-CV-158522 (Santa Xxxxx Sup. Ct.), and co-lead counsel for plaintiffs have been appointed. The complaints assert state-law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, unjust enrichment, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. Plaintiffs are scheduled to file a consolidated complaint on or before December 3, 2010. The federal derivative complaints were consolidated as In re SunPower Corp. S'holder Derivative Litig., Master File No. CV-09-05731-RS (N.D. Cal.), and lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel were appointed on January 4, 2010. The complaints assert state-law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment, and seek an unspecified amount of damages. Parent intends to oppose the derivative plaintiffs' efforts to pursue this litigation on its behalf. Parent's management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of the lawsuits will not have a Material Adverse Effect.
