F. Reaffirmation of Events of Default and Rights of Bank. Borrower hereby reaffirms the events of default and rights of Bank contained in Section 6 of the Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

G. Amendments.

(a) Section 2.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

2.1. Revolving Credit Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby extends or continues to extend to Borrower a revolving line of credit facility (the "Facility") under which Bank shall make loans (the "Revolving Loans") to Borrower at Borrower's request from time to time during the term of this Agreement in an aggregate amount not to exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000.00). Borrower may, from time to time, borrow, repay (without penalty or charge), and reborrow under the Facility, provided that the principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding at any one time under the Facility will not exceed the lesser of (i) Three Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000.00) and (ii) the Borrowing Base (the "Revolving Loan Availability"). If the amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at any time under the Facility exceeds the Revolving Loan Availability, Borrower will, upon request, immediately pay the amount of such excess to Bank in cash. In the event Borrower fails to pay such excess following any such request, Bank may, in its discretion, setoff such amount against Borrower's accounts at Bank, if any, and, if such excess is not satisfied by such setoff, declare an Event of Default

(b) Borrower may request a Revolving Loan by written or telephone notice to Bank. Bank will make Revolving Loans by crediting the amount thereof to Borrower's account at Bank, if any, or as otherwise directed by Borrower and approved by Bank. Loan proceeds will be used for general business purposes.

(c) On June 23, 2017, Borrower issued and delivered to Bank a Revolving Note in the original principal amount of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the "Original Note"), which Original Note is being amended and restated as of the date hereof in the new maximum principal amount of Three Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000.00) in the form attached hereto on Exhibit 2.1A (the "Revolving Note"), bearing interest and repayable as specified in the Revolving Note.

(d) The term of the Facility will expire on June 30, 2019, and the Revolving Note will become payable in full on that date.

2

(b) Section 2.3 is hereby added to the Loan Agreement as follows:

2.3. Term Loan #2. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Bank shall make to Borrower a term loan (the "Term Loan #2") on July 2, 2018 in an aggregate amount of Five Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,500,000.00). The unpaid principal balance, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and reimbursable expenses, shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan #2 as evidenced by a Term Loan Note (the "Term Note #2") to be issued by Borrower to Bank dated July 2, 2018 with a final maturity date of July 2, 2023, and otherwise in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.3.

(b) The proceeds of the Term Loan #2 will be used to support the acquisition of Seventh Wave Laboratories, LLC and for general business purposes.

(c) Borrower shall have the right to prepay the principal of the Term Loan #2 in accordance with the provisions and prepayment penalties set forth in the Term Note #2. Early principal payments will not, unless agreed to by Bank in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make regular monthly payments required by the Term Note #2. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Bank payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse" or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Bank may accept it without losing any of Bank's rights under the Term Note #2, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Bank.

(c) Section 4.2(f) is hereby added to the Loan Agreement as follows:

(a) Within twenty (20) days after the end of each calendar month in which the borrowing under the Facility equals or exceeds $1.00, a Borrowing Base Certificate with supporting Accounts Receivable Invoice Data Aging and Accounts Payable Aging report in a format acceptable to Bank;

(c) Section 5.10 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

(a) Borrower shall not permit the Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio, tested quarterly and measured on a trailing twelve (12) month basis, to be less than 1.25 to 1.0, for the quarter ending June 30, 2018 and each quarter thereafter.

The "Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means, for any computation period, the ratio of: (a) the sum of Borrower's (i) consolidated pre-tax net income for such period plus (ii) consolidated interest expense for such period, plus (iii) consolidated amortization expense during such period, plus (iv) consolidated depreciation expense during such period, plus (v) consolidated stock compensation expense during such period, plus (vi) non-recurring transaction costs of up to $525,000 related to the acquisition of Seventh Wave Laboratories, LLC and/or expansion of Premises #2, as approved by Bank (the sum of items (i) through (vi) "EBITDA") less (vii) distributions/dividends paid by Borrower in cash during such period, less (viii) consolidated unfunded capital expenditure expenses during such period, divided by (b) the sum of Borrower's (i) scheduled or required principal and interest payments during such period, plus (ii) consolidated cash interest payments made during such period.

3

(b) Beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2018, the Cash Flow Leverage Ratio, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter, shall not exceed 4.50 to 1.00.

The "Cash Flow Coverage Ratio" means, for any computation period, the ratio of: (a) Borrower's Total Funded Debt as of the last day of such period, divided by (b) Borrower's EBITDA calculated on a trailing twelve (12) month basis. For purposes of this calculation, "Total Funded Debt" means, as of any date of determination, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Borrower outstanding on such date, determined in accordance with GAAP, consisting of (i) indebtedness for borrowed money, (ii) unreimbursed obligations in respect of drawn letters of credit, (iii) obligations in respect of capitalized leases, (iv) obligations in respect of purchase money debt, and (v) debt obligations evidenced by bonds, debentures, promissory notes, loan agreements or similar instruments.

AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING NOTE

$3,500,000.00 | Date: July 2, 2018
| Due: June 30, 2019

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BIOANALYTICAL SYSTEMS, INC., an Indiana corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Maker"), hereby promises to pay to the order of FIRST INTERNET BANK OF INDIANA, an Indiana state bank, having its principal offices at 11201 USA Parkway, Fishers, Indiana 46037 (hereinafter referred to as "Bank''), in lawful money of the United States of America on the due date specified above, at Bank's principal offices or at such other place or to such other party as the holder hereof may from time to time designate by written notice, the principal sum of Three Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000.00) or as much thereof as may then be outstanding and to pay interest as hereinafter provided as follows:

| (a) | Prior to maturity or the occurrence of an Event of Default, Maker shall pay interest on the principal balance of this Note outstanding from time to time at a floating per annum rate equal to the sum of the Prime Rate less Twenty-five Basis Points (0.25%), which rate shall change concurrently with the Prime Rate (the "Interest Rate"). Maker shall pay accrued but unpaid interest on this Note commencing on August 2, 2018, and on the 2nd day of each monthly period thereafter until maturity of this Note, whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, at which time the unpaid balance of principal of this Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, costs and expenses, shall be due and payable in full.

| (b) | The Borrower will make payments of principal in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to insure that the outstanding principal balance of this Note does not exceed the Borrowing Base.

| (c) | After maturity and the expiration of applicable grace periods provided for in the Credit Agreement (as defined herein) or while there exists any uncured Event of Default, or in the event of acceleration hereunder or the exercise by the Bank of any remedies following any Event of Default under the Loan Documents, the rate of interest shall be increased to a per annum rate equal to the Interest Rate plus Four and No/100 Percent (4.0%) compounded monthly until paid or until the Event of Default shall have been cured.

| (d) | If Maker fails to pay any amount due hereunder, or any fee in connection herewith, in full within ten (10) days after its due date, Maker, in each case, will incur and shall pay a late charge equal to Five Percent (5%) of the unpaid amount, with a minimum late charge in each instance of Twenty-Five and No/100 Dollars ($25.00). After acceleration of repayment of this Note by Bank, the payment of a late charge will not cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default under this Note.

All amounts payable by Maker to the Bank under this Note shall be without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with attorneys' fees and costs of collection as provided in the Credit Agreement. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a Three Hundred Sixty (360) day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed during the period for which interest is being charged. If any payment of principal of or interest on this Note falls due on a day which is not a Banking Day, the due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Day and interest shall be payable at the applicable rate for the period of such extension.

Page 1 of 4

All amounts which shall be paid with respect to this Note shall be applied first to costs of collection and expenses reimbursable by Maker to Bank, secondly to the payment of interest due monthly on the outstanding balance of the principal sum or so much thereof as shall from time to time remain unpaid, and the balance of each monthly payment shall be applied on account of principal. Maker shall be permitted to prepay the outstanding principal balance of this Note on any scheduled payment date without prepayment premium or payment.

This Note evidences indebtedness incurred under a revolving line of credit extended to Maker by Bank pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated June 23, 2017 between the Bank and the Maker, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof, as the same may be further amended from time to time (collectively, the "Credit Agreement"), to which reference is made for definitions of capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein, for the terms and conditions upon which payment of this Note may be accelerated and all amounts outstanding hereunder declared immediately due and payable and for the security provided for the payment of this Note.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents which secure this Note, the holder may, without demand or notice, declare all of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and remaining unpaid balances of interest and expenses immediately due and payable by written notice to Maker, notwithstanding any term or condition in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary. This Note may also be declared due at the option of the holder hereof prior to its expressed maturity at the time, upon the terms and in the manner provided in the Loan Documents. Failure to exercise any such option shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any such option if Maker is in default hereunder.

Maker and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors hereof severally waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest, and expressly agree that this Note and any payment coming due under it may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting their liability hereunder. This Note shall be the joint and several obligation of all makers, sureties, guarantors, and endorsers, and shall be binding upon them and their heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns.

The rights or remedies of the holder hereof as provided in this Note and the Loan Documents shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singly, successively, or together.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Loan Documents to the contrary, no provision contained herein and no provision contained in any of the Loan Documents which purports to obligate Maker to pay any amount of interest or any fees, costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law, shall be effective to the extent that it requires the payment of any interest or other sums in excess of such maximum. In the event Maker shall at any time following the date hereof pay any amount of interest or any fees, costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law, such overpayments shall be deemed to be loans from Maker to the holder hereof, which loans shall be due and payable by the holder upon demand by Maker together with interest from the date or dates of such overpayments calculated at the same rate as Maker is required to pay under this Note, and the repayment of such loans by the holder hereof shall be the sole remedy at law or in equity of Maker for such overpayments.

Page 2 of 4

The person executing this Note for and on behalf of Maker hereby certifies that he is duly empowered by Maker and has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Maker to execute and deliver this Note for and on behalf of Maker.

This Note shall be construed according to and governed by the laws of the State of Indiana. Maker agrees that the state and federal courts in Marion County, Indiana, or any other court in which Bank initiates proceedings have exclusive jurisdiction over all matters arising out of this Note. BANK AND MAKER HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY MATTERS ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE.

For purposes of this Note:

"Basis Point" means one one-hundredth of one percent (.01%).

"Banking Day" means a day which is not (a) a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday on which banking institutions in the State of Indiana or the city in which the office of the Bank is located is authorized to remain closed, or (b) a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed. For the Bank, a "Banking Day" ends at 12:45 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, and all business transacted after such time on any particular day shall be deemed to have been transacted as of the next Banking Day.

"Borrowing Base" will have the same meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreement.

"Prime Rate" means an independent index which is the highest rate identified as the "Prime Rate" in The Wall Street Journal "Money Rates" column on the date the interest rate is to be determined, or if that date is not a publication date, on the publication date immediately preceding. The Prime Rate is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Bank on its loans. If the Prime Rate becomes unavailable, Bank may designate a substitute index after notifying Maker. Bank will inform Maker of the current Index upon Maker's request. Any changes or adjustments to the interest rate will not occur more often than each day. Maker understands that Bank may make loans based on rates other than the Prime Rate.

Maker authorizes Bank and its affiliates without notice, to apply any balances, credits, deposits or moneys of Maker in Bank's possession to payment of any of the foregoing. Time is of the essence of this Note and all other obligations of Maker to Bank or any of its affiliates.

RENEWAL AND EXTENSION. This Note is given in replacement, renewal and/or extension of, but not extinguishing the indebtedness evidenced by, the Revolving Note dated June 23, 2017, executed by Borrower to Lender, in the original principal amount of $2,000,000.00, including previous renewals or modifications thereof, if any (the "Prior Note"), and is not a novation thereof. All interest evidenced by the Prior Note being replaced, renewed, and/or extended by this Note shall continue to be due and payable until paid. All related documents executed in relation to or as security for the Prior Note remain in full force and effect.

| (e) | After maturity and the expiration of applicable grace periods provided for in the Credit Agreement (as defined herein) or while there exists any uncured Event of Default, or in the event of acceleration hereunder or the exercise by the Bank of any remedies following any Event of Default under the Loan Documents, the rate of interest shall be increased to a per annum rate equal to the Interest Rate plus Four and No/100 Percent (4.0%) compounded monthly until paid or until the Event of Default shall have been cured.

| (d) | If Maker fails to pay any amount due hereunder, or any fee in connection herewith, in full within ten (10) days after its due date, Maker, in each case, will incur and shall pay a late charge equal to Five Percent (5%) of the unpaid amount, with a minimum late charge in each instance of Twenty-Five and No/100 Dollars ($25.00). After acceleration of repayment of this Note by the Bank, the payment of a late charge will not cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default under this Note.

All amounts payable by Maker to the Bank under this Note shall be without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with attorneys' fees and costs of collection as provided in the Credit Agreement. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a Three Hundred Sixty (360) day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed during the period for which interest is being charged. If any payment of principal of or interest on this Note falls due on a day which is not a Banking Day, the due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Day and interest shall be payable at the applicable rate for the period of such extension.

This Note may be prepaid, in whole or in part, upon any scheduled payment date, provided such prepayment is accompanied by a premium equal to (i) Two Percent (2.0%) multiplied by the principal amount prepaid, for any amounts prepaid between July 2, 2018 and July 1, 2021, or (ii) One Percent (1.0%) multiplied by the principal amount prepaid, for any amounts prepaid from July 2, 2021 through the Maturity Date.

All amounts which shall be paid with respect to this Note shall be applied first to costs of collection and expenses reimbursable by the Maker to the Bank, secondly to the payment of interest due monthly on the balance of the principal sum or so much thereof as shall from time to time remain unpaid, and the balance of each monthly payment shall be applied on account of principal. All prepaid principal shall be applied to payments due under this Note in the inverse order of maturity.

This Note evidences indebtedness incurred under a term loan ("Term Loan #2") extended to the Maker by the Bank pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated June 23, 2017 between the Bank and the Maker, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof, as the same may be further amended from time to time ("Credit Agreement"), to which reference is made for definitions of capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein, for the terms and conditions upon which payment of this Note may be accelerated and all amounts outstanding hereunder declared immediately due and payable and for the security provided for the payment of this Note.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under any of any Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) which secure this Note, the holder may, without demand or notice, declare all of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and remaining unpaid balances of interest and expenses immediately due and payable by written notice to Maker, notwithstanding any term or condition in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary. This Note may also be declared due at the option of the holder hereof prior to its expressed maturity at the time, upon the terms and in the manner provided in the Loan Documents. Failure to exercise any such option shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any such option if the Maker is in default hereunder.

Maker and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors hereof severally waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest, and expressly agree that this Note and any payment coming due under it may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting their liability hereunder. This Note shall be the joint and several obligation of all makers, sureties, guarantors, and endorsers, and shall be binding upon them and their heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns.

The rights or remedies of the holder hereof as provided in this Note and the Loan Documents shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singly, successively, or together.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Loan Documents to the contrary, no provision contained herein and no provision contained in any of the Loan Documents which purports to obligate Maker to pay any amount of interest or any fees, costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law, shall be effective to the extent that it requires the payment of any interest or other sums in excess of such maximum. In the event Maker shall at any time following the date hereof pay any amount of interest or any fees, costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law, such overpayments shall be deemed to be loans from Maker to the holder hereof, which loans shall be due and payable by the holder upon demand by Maker together with interest from the date or dates of such overpayments calculated at the same rate as Maker is required to pay under this Note, and the repayment of such loans by the holder hereof shall be the sole remedy at law or in equity of Maker for such overpayments.
