At any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Agent, and at the sole expense of the Obligors, the Obligors will promptly and duly give, execute, deliver, indorse, file or record any and all amendments, notices (including, without limitation, notifications to financial institutions and any other Person), contracts, agreements, assignments, certificates, stock powers or other instruments, obtain any and all governmental approvals and consents and take or cause to be taken any and all steps or acts that may be necessary or advisable or as the Agent may reasonably request to create, perfect, establish the priority of, or to preserve the validity, perfection or priority of, the Liens granted by the Loan Documents or to enable the Agent to enforce its rights, remedies, powers and privileges under the Loan Documents with respect to such Liens or to otherwise obtain or preserve the full benefits of the Loan Documents and the rights, powers and privileges therein granted.

8. Term Loan Amendment. (a) The Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that the terms of the Term Loan Amendment and the Term Loan Forbearance Agreement (each, as in effect on the date hereof) are permitted under Section 10.2.15(d) of the Loan Agreement.

(b) The Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, hereby acknowledges and agrees that the $20,000,000 of incremental Term Loans provided or to be provided under the Term Loan Amendment (as in effect on the date hereof) constitute Term Loan Obligations for purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement and are not Term Loan Excess Amount (as defined

therein). The Parent hereby agrees to timely request any “Additional First-Out Loans” (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) to meet its and its Subsidiaries’ cash flow needs during the Forbearance Period (it being understood that the funding of such Additional First-Out Loans is subject to the discretion of the Primoris Lenders (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement)). The Parent hereby further agrees to timely submit a written request to the Primoris Lenders for such Additional First-Out Loans in an amount not less than is required to remedy any cash deficiency indicated in the most recent cash flow forecast delivered by the Parent to the Agent in accordance with Section 6.1(c) or (d) hereof.

9. Ratification of Loan Documents and Collateral. Except as modified by this Agreement, each Obligor hereby acknowledges, ratifies, reaffirms and agrees that each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the first priority (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), perfected Liens and security interests created thereby in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral, are and will remain in full force and effect and binding on such Obligor, and are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and applicable law. Each Obligor hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or confirms that the Agent already possesses, Liens and security interests in the Collateral, as security for all of the Obligations (in the case of the U.S. Facility Obligors) or Canadian Facility Obligations (in the case of the Canadian Facility Obligors). In addition, each Obligor hereby agrees and confirms that the Agent, as a depository bank, has control over all Deposit Accounts of the Obligors and the contents thereof that are maintained with it. By its execution hereof and thereof, each Obligor (in its individual capacity and in its capacity as member, shareholder or partner of each other Obligor, as applicable) acknowledges, ratifies and reaffirms all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents and the enforceability thereof against it, which terms and provisions, except as modified herein, are incorporated by reference as of the Effective Date as if set forth herein including, without limitation, all promises, agreements, warranties, representations, covenants, releases, and indemnifications contained therein. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Borrower hereby acknowledges, ratifies and confirms the Loan Agreement and all of its debts and obligations to the Agent and the Lenders thereunder; each U.S. Domiciled Obligor hereby acknowledges, ratifies and confirms its guaranty of the Obligations under the Loan Agreement and all of its debts and obligations to the Agent and the Lenders thereunder; and each Canadian Domiciled Obligor hereby acknowledges, ratifies and confirms its guaranty of the Canadian Facility Obligations under the Loan Agreement and all of its debts and obligations to the Agent and the Lenders thereunder.
