2. Subordination.

Borrower covenants and agrees, and Junior Creditor by its acceptance of the Junior Note (whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment) likewise covenants and agrees, that (a) the payment of any and all of the Junior Debt shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior Payment in Full of the Senior Debt and (b) any amounts of Exit Fees (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) or similar fees payable by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement shall be payable for the benefit of the Senior Creditor only and not the Junior Creditor. Each holder of Senior Debt, whether now outstanding or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, shall be deemed to have acquired Senior Debt in reliance upon the provisions contained in this Agreement.

2.2. Proceedings. In the event of any Proceeding involving Borrower, (a) all Senior Debt first shall be Paid in Full before any payment of or with respect to the Junior Debt shall be made; (b) any payment or distribution, whether in cash, property or securities which, but for the terms hereof, otherwise would be payable or deliverable in respect of the Junior Debt, shall be paid or delivered directly to Senior Creditor (to be held and/or applied in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement) until all Senior Debt is Paid in Full, and Junior Creditor irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs all receivers, trustees, liquidators, custodians, conservators and others having authority in the premises to effect all such payments and distributions, and Junior Creditor also irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs Senior Creditor to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution; (c) Junior Creditor agrees to execute and deliver to Senior Creditor or its representative all such further instruments confirming the authorization referred to in the foregoing clause (b); (d) Junior Creditor agrees not to initiate or prosecute or encourage any other Person to initiate or prosecute any claim, action or other proceeding challenging the enforceability of the Senior Debt or any liens and security interests securing the Senior Debt, (e) Junior Creditor agrees not to object to any use of cash collateral by Borrower under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code permitted by Senior Creditor or any borrowing by Borrower from Senior Creditor, or to any grant of a lien or security interest by any Person in favor of Senior Creditor (or any agent therefore), under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (f) Junior Creditor agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of the Junior Debt requested by Senior Creditor in connection with any such Proceeding and hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Senior Creditor its agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim upon the failure of Junior Creditor promptly to do so (and, in any event, prior to 15 days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof) and (ii) vote such claim in any such Proceeding upon the failure of Junior Creditor to do so prior to 15 days before the expiration of the time to vote any such claim; provided Senior Creditor shall have no obligation to execute, verify, deliver, file and/or vote any such proof of claim. In the event that Senior Creditor votes any claim in accordance with the authority granted hereby, Junior Creditor shall not be entitled to change or withdraw such vote. Junior Creditor agrees that it will consent and not otherwise object to a sale or other disposition of any assets securing the Senior Debt (or any portion thereof) free and clear of Liens, claims and other interests under the Bankruptcy Code, including Sections 363, 365 and 1129, if Senior Creditor has consented to such sale or other disposition. At the written request of Senior Creditor, Junior Creditor will object to any such sale. Junior Creditor waives any claims it may now or hereafter have arising out of the Senior Creditor’s election of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. Junior Creditor agrees not to (i) initiate or prosecute or join with any other Person to initiate or prosecute any claim, action or other proceeding opposing a motion by Senior Creditor to lift the automatic stay, or (ii) propose or vote (to the extent such vote is required to satisfy Section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code) in favor of any chapter 11 plan that seeks confirmation under Section 1129(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Senior Debt. The Senior Debt shall continue to be treated as Senior Debt and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Creditor and Junior Creditor even if all or part of the Senior Debt or the liens and security interests securing the Senior Debt are subordinated, set aside, avoided or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding and this Agreement shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Debt or any representative of such holder.

2.3. Payment Upon Senior Default. (a) Borrower may not make, and Junior Creditor may not receive, any payment with respect to the Junior Debt Documents; provided, (x) that subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.3, Borrower may make and Junior Creditor may retain scheduled payments of interest with respect to the Junior Debt (“Permitted Payments”) and (y) Borrower may make, and Junior Creditor may retain, payments on the Junior Debt permitted by the second sentence of subsection 2.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may not make and Junior Creditor may not receive any Permitted Payments or any other amount due with respect to the Junior Debt if, at the time of such payment:

(i) A Senior Payment Default exists and such Senior Payment Default shall not have been cured or waived in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents; or

(ii) Subject to the last sentence of this subsection 2.3, (x) Borrower and Junior Creditor shall have received a Senior Default Notice from Senior Creditor stating that a Covenant Default exists or would be created by the making of such payment, and (y) each such Covenant Default shall not have been cured or waived in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents (the period during which either of such conditions described in Section 2.3(i) or (ii) exist being referred to as a “Blockage Period”).

(b) Subject to the last sentence of this subsection 2.3, Borrower may resume payments of Permitted Payments (and may make any payments of Permitted Payments missed due to the existence of a Blockage Period) in respect of the Junior Debt or any judgment with respect thereto upon the expiration of the Blockage Period, whether by cure or waiver of the applicable Senior Payment Default or Covenant Default.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection 2.3 to the contrary:

(i) No Covenant Default existing on the date any Senior Default Notice is given pursuant to clause (a)(ii)(x) of this subsection 2.3 shall, unless the same shall have ceased to exist for a period of at least 30 consecutive days, be used as a basis for any subsequent such notice; and

(ii) The failure of Borrower to make any payment with respect to the Junior Debt by reason of the operation of this subsection 2.3 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Junior Default under the applicable Junior Debt Documents.

The provisions of this subsection 2.3 shall not apply to any payment with respect to which subsection 2.2 would be applicable.

2.4. Payments Otherwise Permitted. Nothing contained in this Section 2 or elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Junior Debt Documents shall prevent Borrower at any time, except during the pendency of any Proceeding referred to in subsection 2.2 or under the conditions referred to in subsection 2.3, from making Permitted Payments with respect to the Junior Debt. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except during the pendency of any Proceeding referred to in subsection 2.2 or unless a Senior Default is then in effect and has not been cured or waived by Senior Creditor, Borrower may repay the Junior Debt as provided in Section 2.6 of the Loan Agreement.

2.5. Restriction on Action by Junior Creditor.

(a) Until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full, Junior Creditor shall not, without the prior written consent of Senior Creditor, take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Junior Debt.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on or after (but not before) the filing of a Proceeding with respect to the Borrower, Junior Creditor may (a) accelerate the Junior Debt and (b) file proofs of claim against the Borrower; provided that any distributions or other proceeds of any Enforcement Action obtained by Junior Creditor shall be held in trust by it for the benefit of Senior Creditor and be paid or delivered to Senior Creditor in the form received until all Senior Debt is indefeasibly Paid in Full.

(b) Until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full and notwithstanding anything contained in the Junior Debt Documents, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Senior Debt Documents to the contrary, Junior Creditor shall not, without the prior written consent of Senior Creditor, agree to any amendment, modification or supplement to the Junior Debt Documents, including, without limitation, any amendment, modification or supplement the effect of which is to (i) increase the maximum principal amount of the Junior Debt, the amount of any fee payable with respect to the Junior Debt or rate of interest on any of the Junior Debt, (ii) change the dates upon which payments of principal or interest on the Junior Debt are due, (iii) change or add any event of default or any covenant with respect to the Junior Debt, (iv) change any redemption or prepayment provisions of the Junior Debt, (v) alter the subordination provisions with respect to the Junior Debt, including, without limitation, subordinating the Junior Debt to any other debt, (vi) change the maturity date of any of the Junior Debt or otherwise to alter the repayment terms of the Junior Debt, or (vii) change or amend any other term of the Junior Debt Documents if such change or amendment would result in an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, increase the obligations of Borrower or any guarantor of the Junior Debt or confer additional material rights on Junior Creditor or any other holder of the Junior Debt in a manner adverse to Borrower, any such guarantor or Senior Creditor.

2.6. Incorrect Payments. If any payment or distribution on account of the Junior Debt not permitted to be made by Borrower or received by Junior Creditor under this Agreement is received by Junior Creditor before all Senior Debt is Paid in Full, such payment or distribution shall not be commingled with any asset of Junior Creditor, shall be held in trust by Junior Creditor for the benefit of Senior Creditor and shall be promptly paid over to Senior Creditor, or its designated representative, for application (in accordance with the Loan Agreement) to the payment of the Senior Debt then remaining unpaid, until all of the Senior Debt is Paid in Full.

2.7. Sale and Transfer. Junior Creditor shall not sell, assign, pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Junior Debt or any Junior Debt Document (a) without giving prior written notice of such action to Senior Creditor and (b) unless prior to the consummation of any such action, the transferee thereof shall execute and deliver to Senior Creditor an agreement substantially identical to this Agreement, providing for the continued subordination and forbearance of the Junior Debt to the Senior Debt as provided herein and for the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of Senior Creditor arising under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the failure to execute or deliver any such agreement, the subordination effected hereby shall survive any sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer of all or any portion of the Junior Debt, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Junior Creditor, as provided in Section 14 below.

2.8. Legends. Until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full, the Junior Note and any other Junior Debt Document at all times shall contain in a conspicuous manner the following legend:

“This instrument and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby are subordinate in the manner and to the extent set forth in that certain Subordination Agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) dated as of April 27, 2018, by and among Sunworks Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and CrowdOut Capital, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“CrowdOut”), to the indebtedness (including interest) owed by Borrower pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of April 27, 2018 between Borrower and CrowdOut, as such Loan Agreement has been and hereafter may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time; and each holder of this instrument, by its acceptance hereof, shall be bound by the provisions of the Subordination Agreement.”

3. Modifications to Senior Debt. Senior Creditor may at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to Junior Creditor, without incurring liability to Junior Creditor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of Junior Creditor under this Agreement, change the manner or place of payment or extend the time of payment of or renew or alter any of the terms of the Senior Debt, or amend in any manner any agreement, note, guaranty or other instrument evidencing or securing or otherwise relating to the Senior Debt.

4. Continued Effectiveness of this Agreement.

Junior Creditor shall not accept any security for the Junior Debt at any time. In the event that Junior Creditor at any time obtains any lien on or security interest in the assets of Borrower or any guarantor of the Senior Debt, Junior Creditor hereby authorizes Senior Creditor to file terminations of any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements with respect thereto and shall deliver such other releases as Senior Creditor shall require to evidence the release of such liens and security interests.
