Fifth Modification Agreement with Credit Facility Lenders

On December 20, 2017, AeroCentury Corp. (the "Company") entered into a Fifth Modification Agreement (the "Fifth Modification") with MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as credit facility agent and lender ("MUFG") and the other lenders under its credit facility, California Bank and Trust, a division of ZB, N.A., Columbia State Bank, Umpqua Bank, and U.S. Bank National Association (collectively with MUFG, referred to as the "Lenders") to amend certain provisions of the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") between the Company and the Lenders.

The Fifth Modification provides for (i) the consent of the Lenders to the Company's proposed acquisition by merger (the "Merger") of JetFleet Holding Corp. ("JHC"), whereby the Company would become the parent corporation of JHC, and JHC's subsidiary, JetFleet Management Corp. ("JMC"), which is the management company for the Company; (ii) the Lenders' waiver of non-compliance with certain covenants under the Loan Agreement arising from amendment of the Management Agreement with JMC (the "Management Agreement") and entry into the Merger plan and related agreements; (iii) amendments to certain financial covenants under the Loan Agreement to adjust for non-recurring costs related to the Merger; and (iv) the Lenders' conditioned consent to any post-Merger revision and/or termination of the Management Agreement between the Company and JMC.

The foregoing description of the Modification is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Fifth Modification filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
