<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On November&nbsp;5, 2018, SIFCO Industries, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the First Amendment (the &#147;First
Amendment&#148;) to its Credit Agreement (&#147;Credit Agreement&#148;) and to its Security Agreement (&#147;Security Agreement&#148;), in each case, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association (the &#147;Lender&#148;). The First
Amendment retroactively amended certain definitions and provisions effective as of the original closing date to clarify the parties&#146; original understandings regarding, among other things: (i)&nbsp;the permitted liens securing certain
indebtedness of the Company to the City of Cleveland (described below), (ii)&nbsp;the timeframes for which certain post-closing requirements would be satisfied, and (iii)&nbsp;the conditions under which the Company will be required to meet the
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which is as follows: the borrowers will not permit the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio to be less than: (a)&nbsp;1.1 to 1.0 as of August&nbsp;31, 2018 or as of September&nbsp;30, 2018; or (b)&nbsp;1.1 to 1.0 at any
month end on or after October&nbsp;31, 2018; provided that the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will not be tested under this clause&nbsp;(b) unless (i)&nbsp;a Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii)&nbsp;Availability was less than or equal to
12.5% of the Revolving Commitment for three or more business days in any consecutive 30&nbsp;day period (with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio calculated as of the end of the month for which the Lender has most recently received financial
statements). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On November&nbsp;8, 2018, the Company entered into an Economic Development Administration Title&nbsp;IX Loan Agreement (the &#147;Cleveland
Loan Agreement&#148;) with the City of Cleveland. Under the Cleveland Loan Agreement, the City of Cleveland has agreed to loan the Company $305,000 (the &#147;Cleveland Loan&#148;) in connection with the Company&#146;s acquisition of a forging press
machine to add additional capacity to its operations in Cleveland. The term of the Cleveland Loan is 60&nbsp;months, beginning on the first day of the calendar month following initial disbursement of loan funds, but in no event later than
January&nbsp;1, 2019, and its maturity date shall be 60 months from the first day of the calendar month following initial disbursement of loan funds, but in no event later than December&nbsp;1, 2023. The interest rate on the Cleveland Loan is fixed
at 3.56%. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the Cleveland Loan Agreement, the Company has agreed to, among other things, maintain a minimum number of jobs at the Cleveland location,
enter into a Workforce Development Agreement with the City of Cleveland, work with the Workforce Investment Board of the City of Cleveland to identify and solicit qualified candidates for job opportunities, and to complete the acquisition of the
forging press machine within a certain timeframe. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Cleveland Loan Agreement contains customary events of default relating to, among other things,
payment defaults, breach of covenants and representations and warranties, cross default to material indebtedness, bankruptcy-related defaults, judgment defaults, the relocation of a material portion of its operations or jobs outside of the City of
Cleveland, or the material reduction of employment or shutting down of operations in the City of Cleveland. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the termination or suspension of the Cleveland Loan Agreement, reduction in loan funds,
recovery of funds previously paid to the Company, and/or any other rights the City of Cleveland may have in law or equity. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition to the foregoing,
the Cleveland Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and indemnification provisions in favor of the City of Cleveland. </P>
