On November 30, 2018, Northern Power Systems, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Northern Power Systems Corp, a British Columbia corporation (collectively, the “Company”), entered into an Amended and Restated Forbearance Agreement by and between Comerica Bank and the Company (the “Amended Forbearance Agreement”). On May 29, 2018, Comerica informed the Company that the Company was not currently in compliance with two covenants (collectively, the “Covenants”) under that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement by and between the Company and Comerica dated December 31, 2013 and as amended (the “Loan”). Ultimately, Comerica and the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement dated August 2, 2018 which the Company previously disclosed on a Form 8-K dated August 2, 2018 (the “Forbearance Agreement”). The Amended Forbearance Agreement amends and restates the Forbearance Agreement.

In the event of a default, Comerica may immediately call the Loan. Further the Amended Forbearance Agreement provides that the Company (i) will repay its obligations under the Loan pursuant to the repayment schedule below and (ii) the Company shall use its best efforts to secure replacement financing of the debt under the Loan as soon as possible, and on or before March 1, 2019.
