Amended and Restated Loan Agreement

On August 25, 2021, the Company entered into the Loan Agreement. Under the Loan Agreement, the Bank will continue to provide the Ranor Term Loan and the revolving line of credit, or the Revolver Loan. In addition, the Bank provided the Stadco Term Loan (as defined below) in the original amount of $4,000. The proceeds of the original Ranor Term Loan of $2,850 were used to refinance existing mortgage debt at Ranor. The proceeds of the Revolver Loan are used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Company. The proceeds of the Stadco Term Loan were to be used to support the acquisition of Stadco and refinance existing indebtedness of Stadco.

Since December 20, 2021, Ranor and certain affiliates of the Company entered into thirteen separate amendments to the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and First Amendment to Promissory Note that extended the maturity date of the Ranor Term Loan and Revolver Loan to December 15, 2027 and May 15, 2026, respectively.

On May 13, 2026, Ranor and the other Borrowers entered into a Fourteenth Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and Tenth Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note with the Bank. The Amendment, among other things, extends the maturity date of the Revolver Loan from May 15, 2026 to September 15, 2026. See Note 17, Subsequent Event.

Stadco Term Loan

On August 25, 2021, Stadco borrowed $4,000 from the Bank, or the “Stadco Term Loan”. Interest on the Stadco Term Loan is due on unpaid balances at a fixed rate per annum equal to the 7-year Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston Classic Advance Rate plus 2.25%. Since September 25, 2021 and on the 25th day of each month thereafter, Stadco had made and will make monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $54 each, with all outstanding principal and accrued interest due and payable on August 25, 2028. Interest shall be calculated based on actual days elapsed and a 360-day year.

Unamortized debt issue costs on March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $3 and $18, respectively.

Ranor Term Loan and Revolver Loan

A term loan was made to Ranor by the Bank in 2016 in the amount of $2,850, or the “Ranor Term Loan”. Payments began on January 20, 2017, and were made in monthly installments of $19 each, inclusive of interest at a fixed rate of 5.21% per annum, with all outstanding principal and accrued interest due and payable on the original maturity date, December 20, 2021.

On June 12, 2023, the Company and the Bank executed a waiver under which the parties agreed to exclude from the calculation of capital expenditures for purposes of the Loan Agreement, any such expenditures made by the Company to the extent they are made using funds provided by customers of the Company for the purpose of making such capital expenditures.

On December 20, 2023, Ranor and certain affiliates of the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note, or the “Sixth Amendment”. Effective December 20, 2023, the Sixth Amendment, among other things (i) extended the maturity date of the Revolver Loan from December 20, 2023 to March 20, 2024; (ii) limited the use of proceeds from the Revolver Loan by the Company or its affiliates to $1,000 in the aggregate for due diligence and related professional costs incurred on or prior to March 20, 2024 in connection with any acquisitions; and (iii) made certain changes to the amount and methods of valuation of equipment securing repayment of the borrowed funds.

On March 20, 2024, Ranor and certain affiliates of the Company entered into a Seventh Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and Third Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note, or the “Seventh Amendment”.

Through May 20, 2024, Ranor utilized a revolving line of credit with, following certain modifications, a maximum principal amount available of $5,000. Advances under the Revolver Loan are subject to a borrowing base equal to the lesser of (a) $5,000 or (b) the sum of (i)80% of the net outstanding amount of Base Accounts, plus (ii) the lesser of (x) 25% of Eligible Raw Material Inventory, and (y) $250, plus (iii) 80% of the Appraised Value of the Eligible Equipment, as such terms are defined in the Loan Agreement.

All Revolver Loan fees are payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October and on the Revolver Maturity Date, or upon acceleration of the Revolver Loan, if earlier. Interest-only payments on advances made under

the Revolver Loan will continue to be payable monthly in arrears. Under the amended promissory note for the Revolver Loan, the Company pays interest at the Term SOFR-based rate.

Unamortized debt issue costs on March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $150 and $50, respectively.

Loan Covenants

For purposes of this discussion, Ranor and Stadco are referred to together as the “Borrowers”. The Company agreed to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants under the Loan Agreement. Namely, the Borrowers agree to maintain the ratio of the Cash Flow of TechPrecision-to-the Total Debt Service of TechPrecision of not less than 1.20 to 1.00, measured quarterly on the last day of each fiscal quarter, or annual period of TechPrecision on a trailing 12-month basis. Calculations will be based on the audited (year-end) and unaudited (quarterly) consolidated financial statements of TechPrecision. Quarterly tests are measured based on the financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q within 60 days of the end of each quarter, and annual tests will be measured based on the financial statements included in the Company’s annual reports on Form 10-K within 120 days after the end of each fiscal annual period. Cash Flow means an amount, without duplication, equal to the sum of net income of TechPrecision plus (i) interest expense, plus (ii) taxes, plus (iii) depreciation and amortization, plus (iv) stock based compensation expense taken by TechPrecision, plus (v) non-cash losses and charges and one time or non-recurring expenses at the Bank’s discretion, less (vi) the amount of cash distributions, if any, made to stockholders or owners of TechPrecision, less (vii) cash taxes paid by the TechPrecision, all as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. “Total Debt Service” means an amount, without duplication, equal to the sum of (i) all amounts of cash interest paid on liabilities, obligations, and reserves of TechPrecision paid by TechPrecision, (ii) all amounts paid by TechPrecision in connection with current maturities of long-term debt and preferred dividends, and (iii) all payments on account of capitalized leases, all as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Borrowers agreed to cause their Balance Sheet Leverage to be less than or equal 2.50 to 1.00. For purposes of this covenant, “Balance Sheet Leverage” means, at any date of determination, the ratio of Borrowers’ (a) Total Liabilities, less Subordinated Debt, to (b) Net Worth, plus Subordinated Debt.

The Borrowers agree to maintain a Loan-to-Value Ratio of not greater than 0.75 to 1.00. “Loan-to-Value Ratio” means the ratio of (a) the sum of the outstanding balance of the Ranor Term Loan and the Stadco Term Loan to (b) the fair market value of the property pledged as collateral for the loan, as determined by an appraisal obtained from time to time by the Bank, but not more frequently than one time during each 365 day period (provided that the Bank may obtain an appraisal at any time after either the Ranor Term Loan or the Stadco Term Loan has been accelerated), which appraisals shall be at the expense of the Borrowers.

The Borrowers agree that their combined annual capital expenditures shall not exceed $1,500. Compliance shall be tested annually. On June 12, 2023, the Company and the Bank executed a waiver under which the Bank waived the Company’s noncompliance with the capital expenditure limit and acknowledged that specified capital expenditures can be excluded from the calculation of the Borrowers combined annual expenditures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company, including specified capital expenditures, exceeded combined annual capital expenditures of $1,500.

The Company was also not in compliance with the balance sheet leverage covenant as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2025, the Company was also not in compliance with the debt service ratio and the balance sheet leverage covenants. In addition, the Bank retains the right to act on covenant violations that occur after the date of delivery of any waiver. The lender has not granted us a waiver. It is also probable that the Company will not be in compliance with the same debt covenants at subsequent measurement dates within the next twelve months. As a result of the above, all of our long-term debt has been classified as current in our consolidated balance sheet.

Collateral securing all the above obligations comprises all personal and real property of the Company, including cash, accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, and financial assets. The Company’s short-term and long-term debt is all privately held with no public market for this debt and is considered to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of short and long-term borrowings approximates their fair value.

Stadco Equipment Financing

Stadco entered into a two-year equipment financing agreement dated May 1, 2024 to purchase certain computer hardware for $65. On the last day of each month, Stadco will make monthly payments of $3, with all remaining outstanding amounts paid in full on April 30, 2026.
