Re: CONSENT, RELEASE AND THIRD AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We refer to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2014, (as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2014, as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of April 20, 2016, and as the same may be further amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (including hereby), the “Credit Agreement”), by and among ARC Group Worldwide, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Parent”), each of the Borrowers party thereto (collectively, the “Borrowers”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and McLarty Capital Partners SBIC, L.P., as administrative agent (in such capacity, including any successor and assign thereto, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

The Parent and the Borrowers have notified the Administrative Agent that the Parent intends to sell and transfer all of its Equity Interests of Arc Wireless LLC (“Wireless LLC”) or substantially all of the assets of Wireless LLC, in either case as a Non-Core Business Disposition (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) as permitted under Section 7.04(f) and 7.05(n) of the Senior Credit Agreement.

1. Limited Consent & Release.  

(a) Effective as of and from the Effective Date (as defined below), the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders hereby consent to the Non-Core Business Disposition of Wireless LLC and prospectively waive solely those Events of Default under the Credit Agreement that would otherwise occur solely as a result of a Non-Core Business Disposition of Wireless LLC. 

(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, and the Required Lenders hereby fully release Wireless LLC as a Loan Party as of the date hereof upon completion of the Non-Core Business Disposition of Wireless LLC. 

1

(c) Nothing in this Amendment shall directly or indirectly be deemed a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, except as expressly set forth in Section 1(a) above, and shall not be deemed to prejudice any right or rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any Loan Document or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, as the same may be amended from time to time.  The foregoing limited consent and waiver shall also not be deemed to operate as, or obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to grant any, future waiver or modification of or consent to any provision, term, condition or Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.  

2. Amendment to the Credit Agreement. 

(a)Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” by deleting “and” at the end of clause (b)(ix) thereof, inserting “and” at the end of clause (b)(x) thereof and inserting the following as clause (b)(xi) thereof:

(xi) such additional amounts as set forth on that certain Test Period Calculation Schedule, dated March 31, 2017, delivered by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, to the Borrowers on March 31, 2017;

(b)Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” as set forth below:

“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” means, for any period, the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA minus the unfinanced portion of Capital Expenditures (other than Tooling Capex) minus expense for taxes paid in cash (other than (i) any taxes resulting from any gains realized as a result of any Non-Core Business Disposition and (ii) any taxes attributable to the income of any Borrower the Equity Interests of which are Disposed of in a Non-Core Business Disposition during such period) minus Restricted Payments paid in cash minus earn-out obligations paid in cash to (b) Fixed Charges, all calculated for the Parent and its Subsidiaries for such period on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

(c)Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following additional definitions in the correct alphabetical order:

“Tooling Capex” means Capital Expenditures in connection with the production of tools for various customers of Borrowers which are financed with the proceeds of the Term Loan or other Indebtedness from a third-party financing source.

“Non-Core Business Disposition” means a Disposition by any Loan Party of all of the outstanding Equity Interests or all or substantially all of the assets of (a) Tekna Seal, (b) General Flange or (c) Wireless.
