Voluntary Filing under Chapter 11

On September 28, 2023, the Company and its wholly owned direct subsidiaries, Capstone Turbine International, Inc. (“Capstone Turbine International”) and Capstone Turbine Financial Services, LLC. (together with the Company, the “Debtors”), commenced voluntary proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 11 proceedings were jointly administered under the caption In re Capstone Green Energy Corporation, Inc., et al. (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). The Debtors continued to operate their business in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. At hearings before the Bankruptcy Court on September 29, 2023, the Debtors obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court of certain “first day” motions containing customary relief intended to assure the Debtors’ ability to continue their ordinary course operations during the Chapter 11 Cases.

Concurrent with the petition, the Debtors entered into the Transaction Support Agreement (“TSA”) with the pre-petition senior secured creditor, Broad Street Credit Holdings, LLC. (“Broad Street”), and Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P. The TSA, among other things, provides that Broad Street and the Collateral Agent will support the Debtors’ restructuring efforts as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the TSA. The TSA contains customary conditions, representations, and warranties of the parties and is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties and compliance with the obligations set forth in the TSA. The TSA also provides for termination by the parties upon the occurrence of certain events.

DIP Note Purchase Agreement

On October 3, 2023, the Debtors entered into a super-priority senior secured debtor-in-possession note purchase agreement (the “DIP Note Purchase Agreement”) with Broad Street and the Collateral Agent. Broad Street provided the Debtors with a credit facility (the “DIP Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million, consisting of (1) $12.0 million new money DIP notes, and (2) a roll-up of a portion of secured obligations under the existing pre-petition debt with Broad Street in the amount of $18.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the DIP Note Purchase Agreement. On September 28, 2023, the Debtors filed the Motion of Debtors for Interim and Final Orders (I) Authorizing the Debtors to Obtain Senior Secured Postpetition Financing, (II) Granting Liens and Superpriority Administrative Expense Status, (III) Authorizing the Use of Cash Collateral, (IV) Granting Adequate Protection to Pre-Petition Secured Parties, (V) Scheduling a Final Hearing, and (VI) Granting Related Relief (the “DIP Motion”) seeking the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the DIP Facility and certain related relief. A copy of the DIP Note Purchase Agreement was attached to the joint prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Plan”) filed as part of the voluntary petition.

On October 2, 2023, the Bankruptcy Court granted the DIP Motion and entered an interim order (the “Interim DIP Order”) approving the DIP Facility on an interim basis and providing the Debtors with the necessary liquidity to continue to operate in Chapter 11. Upon entry of the Interim DIP Order and satisfaction of all applicable conditions precedent, as set forth in the DIP Note Purchase Agreement, the Debtors were authorized to make a single, initial draw of $9.0 million on the DIP Facility (the “Initial Draw”). The remaining $3.0 million of the DIP Facility became available to be drawn by the Debtors on November 13, 2023, after the Bankruptcy Court entered the Final DIP Order (the “Final Order”). The amount was drawn by the Debtors on October 24, 2023, after the entry of the Final Order and

compliance with the terms, conditions, and covenants to be set forth in the DIP Note Purchase Agreement. Substantially all of the Debtors’ assets were encumbered by first-priority liens of the purchaser under the DIP Note Purchase Agreement.

The Bankruptcy Court originally set a final hearing date on November 7, 2023, in accordance with the requirements of the TSA. On November 3, 2023, the final hearing was cancelled and rescheduled to November 13, 2023, with the permission of the Bankruptcy Court.

Emergence from Voluntary Chapter 11 Proceedings

The Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan on November 14, 2023, and the Debtors satisfied all conditions required for Plan effectiveness and the Company emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases ("Emergence") on the Effective Date. On or following the emergence date and pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the following occurred or became effective:

▪Restructuring: The Company was reorganized pursuant to the TSA and the legal entity Capstone Green Energy Corporation became a private company (“Reorganized PrivateCo”) that continues to own assets consisting of (i) all of the Company’s right, title, and interest in and to certain trademarks of the Company and (ii) assets owned by the Company relating to distributor support services ((i) and (ii) together, the “Retained Assets”) and certain income tax attributes that remained with the Reorganized PrivateCo. All other creditors other than the pre-petition senior secured lender of the Company were unimpaired and unaffected by the bankruptcy case. The Company has and will continue to pay vendors and other creditors following Emergence. Capstone Turbine International became a publicly traded company and was renamed Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. This entity is the successor entity for purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission registration. Pre-petition equity holders received 100% of the common equity in Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc., subject to dilution for any equity incentive plans implemented as part of the reorganization, including shares of class B common stock issued to certain key employees and directors. All equity of the Reorganized PrivateCo was cancelled. The Reorganized PrivateCo equity is owned 100% by the pre-petition senior secured lender in exchange for the satisfaction of $35.0 million of its pre-petition claims, and $10.0 million of its DIP claim. A new subsidiary to Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. was created, issuing 100% of its common equity to Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. and 100% of its preferred equity to the Reorganized PrivateCo, with such preferred equity representing a non-dilutable 37.5% equity ownership interest in the new subsidiary. Accordingly, the public entity owns common equity interests representing a 62.5% equity ownership interest in the new subsidiary. Such new subsidiary conducts all of the Capstone business (other than in respect of the Retained Assets).

▪Exit Financing: The DIP Facility converted into an Exit Facility (as defined herein) for an aggregate principal amount of $28.0 million, consisting of (1) $7.0 million new money notes, (2) a roll-up of secured obligations under the pre-petition debt in the amount of $8.0 million, and (3) a roll-up of the DIP new money notes of $12.0 million plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement by and among Capstone Green Energy LLC, as the issuer, Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. and Capstone Turbine Financial Services, LLC, as the guarantors, Broad Street and the Collateral Agent. The new money notes mature two years from the Effective Date, and the roll-up debts mature three years from the emergence date. Interest is calculated using a SOFR rate plus an applicable margin, and a portion is paid-in-kind until the third year following emergence. In the original Plan, the exit facility was to be for an aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million, with only $5.0 million in new money notes. The final approved Plan increased the new money notes to $7.0 million upon the confirmation of the Plan by Bankruptcy Court.

NOL Rights Agreement

In connection with the Emergence and in accordance with the Plan, the NOL Rights Agreement was terminated and the obligations of the Company thereunder were discharged by order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Exit Facility Agreement

In connection with the emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, on the Effective Date, Operating Subsidiary entered into an Exit Note Purchase Agreement (the “Exit Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among Operating Subsidiary, as the issuer, the Company and Capstone Financial Services, as the guarantors (the “Guarantors”), Purchaser and the Collateral Agent (each as defined in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement). The Exit Note Purchase Agreement provides for:

(i) a roll up of the $12.6 million DIP New Money Notes (plus any accrued unpaid interest);

(ii) a roll up of $8.0 million of DIP Roll Up Notes (plus any accrued unpaid interest) (collectively with the roll up of the $12.6 million DIP New Money Notes, the “Exit Roll Up Notes”); and

(iii) an additional $7.0 million new money committed delayed draw term loan facility (the “Exit New Money Notes” and, together with the Exit Roll Up Notes, the “Notes”), of which $3.0 million was drawn at closing.

The Exit Note Purchase Agreement also provides for a $10.0 million uncommitted incremental facility. The proceeds of the $7.0 million of Exit New Money Notes were used to fund restructuring expenses and for working capital, for general corporate purposes and to pay interest, premiums, fees and expenses payable under the other Note Documents (as defined in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement).  The Notes bear interest at a rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement) plus 7.00% per annum. A portion of the interest on the Notes is paid-in-kind until the third year following the Effective Date.

The Exit Roll Up Notes mature on December 7, 2026, and the Exit New Money Notes mature on December 7, 2025.

The Notes issued pursuant to the Exit Note Purchase Agreement are secured by a lien on substantially all of the present and future property and assets of Operating Subsidiary and each Guarantor, subject to customary exceptions and exclusions. The Exit Note Purchase Agreement also includes conditions precedent, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, and other customary provisions, including financial covenants with respect to minimum consolidated liquidity and minimum consolidated adjusted EBITDA.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum adjusted EBITDA covenant contained in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement. In anticipation of such default, the Company obtained a waiver from the Purchaser and the Collateral Agent on March 27, 2024. There can be no assurance that the Purchase and the Collateral Agent will waive any future defaults that may occur. If future defaults occur, the Purchaser and the Collateral Agent can exercise their rights and remedies under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement (and other security related documents), including a right to accelerate the maturity of the Company’s repayment obligations under the Notes.

On June 28, 2024, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Exit Note Purchase Agreement.

The First Amendment provides for: (i) the amendment of the Adjusted EBITDA financial covenant to (a) allow adjustment for costs related to the restatement of, or other adjustments to, the financial statements of the Company for the period beginning on the Closing Date (as defined in the Exit Note Purchase Agreement) and ending at the end of the 2025 Fiscal Year and (b) the Adjusted EBITDA financial covenant to be first tested at the quarter ended September 30, 2024, (ii) the amendment of the Minimum Consolidated Liquidity financial covenant to (a) reduce the Minimum Consolidated Liquidity to $1,000,000 from September 30, 2024 to March 30, 2025 and (b) defer the testing of the Minimum Consolidated Liquidity financial covenant to September 30, 2024 and (iii) the extension of the deadline for the delivery of the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (the “fiscal 2024 financial statements”) to September 27, 2024 and the removal of the covenant that the fiscal 2024 financial statements be accompanied by a report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant which is not subject to any “going concern” or like qualification.

 The minimum liquidity covenant will be tested at all times from and after September 30, 2024, and will require the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain a minimum average Consolidated Liquidity (as defined in the First Amendment) during any seven consecutive day period of no less than:

(i) from September 30, 2024 to March 30, 2025, $1,000,000;

(ii) from March 31, 2025 to June 29, 2025, $2,500,000;

(iii) from June 30, 2025 to September 29, 2025, $3,000,000;

(iv) from September 30, 2025 to March 30, 2026, $3,500,000; and

(v) from March 31 2026 to December 7, 2026, $4,000,000.

The minimum consolidated adjusted EBITDA covenant will be tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with March 31, 2024, and will require the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain a minimum Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the First Amendment) as at the end of any fiscal quarter (i) from the Closing Date until

September 30, 2024, for the period of the fiscal quarters then ended in such calendar year and (ii) from October 1, 2024, for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, to be less than the correlative amount indicated below (with corresponding calendar quarters also included as reference):

The Preferred Units rank senior in certain respects to the Common Units and subordinate to Operating Subsidiary’s existing and future indebtedness, and the Preferred Units will be entitled to vote with the Common Units on an as-converted basis. Additionally, pursuant to the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, Operating Subsidiary may not undertake certain actions without the prior written approval of Reorganized PrivateCo. Subject to certain exceptions, Operating Subsidiary may not, among other things: (1) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Preferred Units or amend any of Operating Subsidiary’s governing documents; (2) make any change in corporate form, including conversion to a corporation; (3) increase the authorized number of Preferred Units; (4) issue any Common Units or equivalents to any person or group of persons (other than the Company), or approve the sale by the Company of Common Units or equivalents to any person or group of persons, such that after the issuance or sale, as applicable, such person or group of persons would own an aggregate number of Common Units in excess of 25% of the actually outstanding Common Units on the date of the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement; (5) create any new class of units with preference over, or parity with, the Preferred Units; (6) authorize, issue or reclassify any securities issued by Operating Subsidiary, its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates (the “Restricted Entities”), other than issuances of Common Units to the Company; (7) sell, issue, sponsor, create or distribute any digital tokens, cryptocurrency or other blockchain-based assets; (8) incur new third party indebtedness exceeding $5.0 million, other than (A) debt contemplated by the TSA, (B) lease or other obligations relating to the rental of equipment to customers or otherwise for energy-as-a-service (EaaS) business activity and (C) debt permitted under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement; (9) declare or pay distributions other than (A) for tax purposes and (B) distributions from Operating Subsidiary’s subsidiaries or controlled affiliate to Operating Subsidiary or its wholly owned subsidiaries; (10) effectuate any liquidation event; (11) acquire any business, ownership of any equity securities in any person other than a wholly owned subsidiary, or enter into a joint venture arrangement; (12) conduct any public offering or direct listing on a national securities exchange; (13) enter into any merger or other transaction resulting in Operating Subsidiary’s equity interests being listed or quoted for trading on an exchange or otherwise subject to registration; (14) commence, settle, defend or make any material decisions with respect to any material settlement or litigation; (15) make any material change to the nature of Operating Subsidiary’s Existing Business (as defined in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement); or (16) enter into any affiliated party transaction except for (A) payments to holders of Common Units (including the Company) in accordance with the terms of the Services Agreement (described below) and (B) compensation arrangements.

Pursuant to the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, the Company, its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates (other than the Restricted Entities) (the “Unrestricted Entities”) may not, without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Units held by the Preferred Members (the “Preferred Requisite Members” which, on the effective date of the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement is solely the Reorganized PrivateCo), engage in any business opportunities, make any investments or enter into any transactions, including any of the foregoing which are or would reasonably be expected to be within the scope of, or would reasonably be deemed to be beneficial to, the Existing Business of Operating  Subsidiary; provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, including in

circumstances in which any Unrestricted Entity proposes to engage in any such business opportunities, make any such investments or enter into any such transactions and (i) where the business opportunity, investment or transaction (the “New Opportunity”) would constitute a change in the Existing Business if the Restricted Entities were to engage in such New Opportunity, make such investments or enter into such transactions and the Preferred Requisite Members do not consent to such change following Operating Subsidiary’s request reasonably in advance of such New Opportunity for the Preferred Requisite Members to be able to reasonably consider such request, or (ii) the New Opportunity is not within the scope of the Existing Business and either (A) the New Opportunity is first presented to Operating Subsidiary, Operating Subsidiary proposes such New Opportunity to the Preferred Requisite Members reasonably in advance of such New Opportunity for the Preferred Requisite Members to be able to reasonably consider such proposal, and the Preferred Members (as defined in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement) do not agree to fund their proportionate share of the cost thereof, or (B) the New Opportunity is funded entirely with the proceeds of financing transactions by, or through the issuance of securities of, any Unrestricted Entity.

Pursuant to the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, at any time during the six-month period following the sixth anniversary of the effective date of the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, the Preferred Requisite Members may elect to have all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Preferred Units redeemed (a “Redemption Request”).  In such event, Operating Subsidiary will redeem all, but not less than all, of the Preferred Units, except Operating Subsidiary may not make such payment if (a) such payment is prohibited by the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. or (b) Operating Subsidiary is, or by such payment would be, insolvent (together, the “Redemption Exceptions”).  The aggregate price for Preferred Units will be an amount equal to the greater of (i) the $10,449,863, plus declared but unpaid distributions, or (ii) the fair market value of the Preferred Units on an as-converted to Common Units basis at the time of such redemption (the “Redemption Price”).  If a Redemption Exception prevents Operating Subsidiary from redeeming all Preferred Units, Operating Subsidiary will redeem the maximum possible number of Preferred Units from the Preferred Members without triggering any Redemption Exceptions.  At any time thereafter when the Redemption Exceptions do not prevent Operating Subsidiary from redeeming Preferred Units that remain issued and outstanding, Operating Subsidiary will immediately use its funds to redeem the balance of the Preferred Units that Operating Subsidiary became obligated to redeem (but which it has not yet redeemed) at the then applicable Redemption Price. Operating Subsidiary may raise new capital to fund the Redemption Price.

Pursuant to the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, each Preferred Member has the right to all or any portion of such Preferred Member’s pro rata portion, at such Preferred Member’s sole discretion, of new securities that any Restricted Entity may from time to time propose to issue or sell to any party, subject to the terms and certain exceptions set forth in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement. Members may not transfer their Units (as defined in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement), provided that all, but not less than all, Preferred Units held by the Preferred Members may be transferred only if: (i) transferred to the same transferee (or its Affiliates) as part of the same transaction or series of related transactions, in which case (A) the Preferred Members must cause the recipient(s) of such Preferred Units to comply with the terms of the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, and (B) if such recipient(s) are competitors of the Company only if first converted into Common Units; or (ii) transferred to more than one unaffiliated transferees as part of the same transaction or series of related transactions, in which case (A) the Preferred Members will cause the recipients of such Preferred Units to comply with the terms of the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, (B) if such recipients are competitors of the Company only if first converted into Common Units, and (C) one transferee must continue to hold a sufficient number of Preferred Units so that such transferee qualifies as the Preferred Requisite Member.  Each Preferred Member has a right of first refusal if any Common Member (the “Offering Member”) receives a bona fide offer that the Offering Member desires to accept to transfer all or any portion of such Offering Member’s Units (the “Offered Units”).  Each time the Offering Member receives an offer for a transfer of all or any portion of such Offering Member’s Units, the Offering Member is required to first make an offering of the Offered Units to the Preferred Members, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement and subject certain exceptions set forth therein, prior to transferring such Offered Units. Additionally, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement, the Company has a right of first offer if the Preferred Members wish to transfer Preferred Units to a third party.  Each Preferred Member is permitted to participate in any proposed transfer by a Common Member of any Units to any Person, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Operating Subsidiary LLC Agreement and subject to certain exceptions set forth therein.
