The Beneficiary undertakes to promptly deliver the Lending Party copy of any amendment deed to the US Loan Agreement which will be in future executed between the relevant parties.

E. FINANCIAL COVENANTS DEFAULT

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under the Loan Agreement, it is agreed that in case on any Test Date the Beneficiary fails to comply with one or more financial covenants provided under this Annex 14 bis (Financial Covenants) and such failure also constitutes a financial covenant default under the US Loan Agreement, where the US Lender has waived any of its right arising under the US Loan Agreement as a consequence of the failure of the Beneficiary to comply with such financial covenants, the Beneficiary may request the Lending Party a corresponding waiver and, if the Lending Party has agreed to grant such waiver in relation to the relevant failure hereunder, no Significant Event may be deemed to have occurred hereunder.

3. Effectiveness

The Parties agree that (i) the provisions of the Loan Agreement not amended by means of this agreement shall continue to be in force as agreed in the same Loan Agreement; (ii) the amendments made to the Loan Agreement through the execution of this agreement are accessory, and not material, amendments to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, therefore shall not result in (and shall not be construed in any way as resulting in) the objective novation (novazione oggettiva) of any of the obligations arising under the Loan Agreement and, consequently, shall not result in any way (and shall not be construed in any way as resulting in) the expiry and/or termination of any of the aforesaid obligations; and (iii) the securities created pursuant to the Financial Documents (including, without limitation, the Mortgages) are deemed fully valid and effective securities of the obligations arising under the Loan Agreement as amended by means of this agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the amendments to the Loan Agreement set forth in this agreement are deemed by any competent court to constitute an objective novation (novazione oggettiva) of any of the obligations arising under the Loan Agreement, the Parties, also pursuant to, and for the purposes of, article 1232 of the Italian Civil Code, agree that all the securities created pursuant to the Financial Documents (including, without limitation, the Mortgages) are deemed to be kept in force as security of the obligations arising under the Loan Agreement as amened by means of this agreement.

The effectiveness of the amendments set forth under paragraphs A, H and I of article 2 (Additions and amendments to the Loan Agreement) of this amendment agreement is subject to the occurrence of the following conditions precedent:

(i) delivery to the Lending Party of a copy of the US Loan Agreement executed between Kemet and the US Lender;

(ii) evidence that the drawdown of the term loan facility to be applied in prepayment of the Notes under the US Loan Agreement has occurred within June 10, 2009;

it being understood that the Lending Party, as soon as it receives the documents or the evidence indicated above, and in any case within the day following the receipt of the same, shall promptly notify in writing to the Beneficiary, by means of a declaration signed by it (the “Communication”), that the conditions precedent mentioned above have been satisfied.

As a result of the amendments made to the Loan Agreement through this agreement, for the sake of clarity, the Lending Party acknowledges that the carrying out and completion of the Pluto Transaction and of the activities provided therein or connected to the same, does not constitute, and shall not give rise to, any Significant Event pursuant to, and for the purposes of, article 16 (Significant Events) and, in particular, of article 8 (Failure to Fulfil Contractual Obligations) of Annex 16 (Significant Events) to the Loan Agreement. As a consequence, the Lending Party hereby waives any of its rights, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, which might derive from the carrying out and completion of the Pluto Transaction and of the activities provided therein or connected to the same.

This agreement shall be considered a Financial Document pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

4. Formalities in relation to the Mortgages

Within ten days as of April 30, 2009, the Parties shall cause that any formality which should be useful and/or necessary in relation to the Mortgages as a result of the execution of this agreement shall be fulfilled with the competent register, it being understood that any cost connected with such activity shall be borne by the Beneficiary.

UniCredit hereby consent that the formalities described above shall be carried out.

5. Miscellanea

With regard to any matters which are not expressly regulated in this agreement, the Parties hereby expressly declare that the provisions of the Loan Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis.

Except for that which is expressly provided for hereunder, no other and further amendments and/or additions to the Loan Agreement and/or to the Financial Documents have been agreed upon by the Parties.

The declarations and guarantees contained in article 13 (Declarations and Guarantees) of the Loan Agreement shall be deemed repeated by the Beneficiary (with reference to the facts and circumstances contained therein) on the date of execution of this agreement.

Failure to comply with one or more of the undertakings provided herein by the Beneficiary or, to the extent applicable, the other companies of the Beneficiary’s Group shall constitute a Significant Event and the provisions of clauses 17.1 and 17.2 of the Loan Agreement shall apply.

This agreement shall be subject to registration, without the relevant registration tax being applied, as the Loan Agreement is subject to the substitute tax, pursuant to articles 15 et seq. of Presidential Decree no. 601 of 29th September 1973.

The Beneficiary hereby represents that it shall bear all costs and expenses, including notarial expenses relating to, or otherwise connected with, the execution of this agreement.

The Parties hereby agree that each party shall bear any attorney’s fees relating to the services provided by its own legal advisors in relation to the preparation, negotiation, and execution of this agreement.

This agreement is governed by, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, the Italian laws. Any dispute which might arise in relation to the interpretation, effectiveness, validity, conclusion, performance or termination of this agreement shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Verona, subject to the Agent Bank’s right to sue the Beneficiary before any other court.

The Parties agree that in the event the US Loan Agreement is terminated for any reason pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein before November 15, 2012 (the “Condition”), at the occurrence of the Condition, any amount of the Loan still outstanding on the date on which the Condition has occurred shall be reimbursed pursuant to the amortization instalments (as temporally subsequent to the date on which the Condition has occurred) indicated under the amortization schedule delivered to the Beneficiary at the time of the execution of the Loan Agreement (the “Previous Amortization Schedule”), it being understood that the instalments of the Previous Amortization Schedule which have become due and payable prior to the date on which the Condition has occurred shall not be applicable for any purposes.
