THIS APR GUARANTY dated as of February 28, 2020 (this "Guaranty") is made by ATLAS CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the laws of The Republic of the Marshall Islands ("ATLAS") in favor of UMB BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, not in its individual capacity but solely as security trustee, for and on behalf of the Finance Parties (the "Guaranteed Party").

WHEREAS, reference is made to the terms of the Intercreditor and Proceeds Agreement dated as of February 28, 2020 (as amended, supplemented, increased, extended, restated, renewed or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among, inter alios, APR Energy, LLC, as borrower (the “Borrower”), Atlas, as primary guarantor, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Agent”) and UMB Bank, not in its individual capacity but solely as security trustee for the other Secured Parties (the “Security Trustee”);

WHEREAS, reference is further made to the terms of the Credit Agreement dated as of February 28, 2020 (as amended, supplemented, increased, extended, restated, renewed or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among, inter alios, the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders party thereto from time to time;

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Credit Agreement, that Atlas shall have provided a guaranty of all of the Obligations, including but not limited to, the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and premium and interest on, the Loans, as provided in the Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Guaranty.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Atlas, the parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.Definitions. For purposes of this Guaranty, unless the context otherwise requires, (i) capitalized terms used herein (including the recitals above) and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement for all purposes of this Guaranty and (ii) this Guaranty shall be interpreted in accordance with the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(a)Atlas hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, as primary obligor and not merely as a surety to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, to the Guaranteed Party, for and on behalf of the Finance Parties:

(i)guarantees the due and punctual payment and performance of by each Obligor of all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Guaranteed Obligations”);

(ii)undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever any Obligor does not pay any amount when due to a Finance Party under or in connection with any Loan Document, Atlas shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor and not merely as surety; and

(iii)agrees with the Guaranteed Party, for an on behalf of the Finance Parties that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify each Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Loan Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by Atlas under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Section 2(a) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guaranty.

(b)This guaranty is a continuing guaranty and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by each Obligor to the Finance Parties under the Loan Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

(c)If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of Atlas under this Section 2 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

(d)The obligations of Atlas under this Section 2 will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Section 2(d), would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Section 2 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

(i)any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or any other person;

(ii)the release of any Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any other Person;

(iii)the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or any other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

(iv)any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of any Obligor or any other person;

(v)any amendment, novation, supplement, extension (whether of maturity or otherwise) or restatement (in each case however fundamental and of whatsoever nature, and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Loan Document or any other document or security;

(vi)any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Loan Document or any other document or security; or

(e)Without prejudice to the generality of Section 2(d), Atlas expressly confirms that it intends that this guaranty shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the obligations guaranteed hereby (whether due to any (however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to the Loan Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Loan Documents for any reasons, including any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing).

(f)Atlas waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from Atlas under this Section 2. This waiver applies irrespective of any Law or any provision of a Loan Document to the contrary.

(g)Until the Commitments have expired or been terminated, all Obligations have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid in full (excluding any contingent obligations not yet due and payable), and with respect to all Letters of Credit, these have either expired or been canceled (without any pending drawings) or otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(i)refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise), and Atlas shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(ii)hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from Atlas or on account of Atlas’ liability under this Section 2.

(h)Until the Commitments have expired or been terminated, all Obligations have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid in full (excluding any contingent obligations not yet due and payable), and with respect to all Letters of Credit, these have either expired or been canceled (without any pending drawings) or otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and unless the Guarantee Party otherwise directs, Atlas shall not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Loan Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this 2:

(ii)to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor’s obligations under the Loan Documents;

(iii)to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Loan Documents or of any other guaranty or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Loan Documents by any Finance Party;

(iv)to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring the Borrower to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which Atlas has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Section 2;

(vi)to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.

If Atlas receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Finance Parties by the Borrower or any other Obligor under or in connection with the Loan Documents to be unconditionally and irrevocably repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Guaranteed Party or as the Guaranteed Party may direct, for application in accordance with Section 3 hereof.

(i)Payments to Guaranteed Party. All payments and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations due from Atlas under this Guaranty shall be made and/or performed by Atlas to and/or in favour of the Guaranteed Party, for the benefit of the Finance Parties, and such payments and/or performance to and/or in favour of the Guaranteed Party shall discharge fully and completely Atlas’ liability under this Guaranty with respect to such payments and/or performance.

All amounts paid by Atlas during any relevant Interest Period under this Guaranty, made in favour of the Guaranteed Party, for the benefit of the Finance Parties, shall be applied, on each Payment Date and (following an Event of Default which is continuing) on each date required by the Required Lenders in the following order of priority but only to the extent that all distributions of a higher priority have been made in full, in payment:

(a)firstly, to the Guaranteed Party or any other Administrative Party in discharging any fees, expenses and indemnity payments owing to any of them;

(b)secondly, pari passu and pro rata to the Lenders and any Issuing Banks for application in or towards the discharge of the Borrower’s liabilities in respect of payment of Commitment Fees, L/C Fees and L/C Fronting Fees and interest then due and payable (including Default Interest) on the Loans under the Credit Agreement;

(c)thirdly, pari passu and pro rata to the Lenders for application in or towards the discharge of the Borrower’s liabilities in respect of principal then due and payable on the Loans under the Credit Agreement and to the Administrative Agent for application in or towards the discharge of the Borrower’s liabilities to Cash Collateralize any Letter of Credit;

(d)fourthly, for application in or towards the discharge of any other Obligor’s liabilities due and payable to any Administrative Party or any other Finance Party under any of the Loan Documents; and

(e)lastly, for application in or towards any other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents.

Section 4.No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any performance or payment or payments made by Atlas hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of Atlas by the Guaranteed Party or a Finance Party, Atlas shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Guaranteed Party or any Finance Party against the Borrower or any Obligor or any Collateral, security or guaranty or right of setoff held by the Guaranteed Party or any Finance Party for the payment and/or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall Atlas seek or be entitled to seek any reimbursement from any Obligor in respect of payments and/or performance made by Atlas hereunder, on account of the Guaranteed Obligations until the Commitments have expired or been terminated, all Obligations have been irrevocably and unconditionally paid in full (excluding any contingent obligations not yet due and payable) and all Letters of Credit have expired or been canceled (without any pending drawings) or otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(a)Atlas hereby undertakes in favor of the Finance Parties that its rights and claims under, in and to the Loan Documents are, and shall at all times until the Commitments have expired or been terminated, all Obligations have been irrevocably and unconditionally paid in full (excluding any contingent obligations not yet due and payable) and all Letters of Credit have expired or been canceled (without any pending drawings) or otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement, be fully subject and subordinated to the rights and claims of the Finance Parties in, to and under the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents and any loans or other amounts advanced thereunder, and that no amounts shall be payable to it under the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents otherwise than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, until the Commitments have expired or been terminated, all Obligations have been paid irrevocably and unconditionally paid in full (excluding any contingent obligations not yet due and payable) and all Letters of Credit have expired or been canceled (without any pending drawings) or otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5 shall prohibit (x) Atlas receiving proceeds in respect of Additional Secured Debt used to refinance any Obligor Indebtedness incurred under an Intra Group Loan Agreement with Atlas, in accordance with Section 6.03(b) of the Credit Agreement; and/or (y) payments to Atlas made by any Obligor (A) using cash which is freely available to such Obligor under and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; and (B) where such Obligor is permitted to make dividends and/or distributions to shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

(e)The subordination effected by, and the obligations of each Obligor and Atlas under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release, prejudice or otherwise exonerate all or any of the Obligors or Atlas from their respective obligations under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and this Guaranty or affect such obligations including and whether or not known by any Obligor or Atlas or any other person (i) any Lien or right of the Finance Parties in respect of the Obligations, (ii) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with any Obligor or any other person, (iii) the release of any Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor, (iv) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realize the full value of any Collateral, (v) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of any Obligor or Atlas or any other person, (vi) any amendment, novation, supplement, extension (whether of maturity or otherwise) or restatement (in each case however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Loan Document or any other document or security (including any change in the purpose of, any extension of, or any variation or increase in any facility or amount made available under any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Loan Document or other document or security), (vii) any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any Obligor or Atlas or of any other person under any Loan Document or any other document or security; or (viii) any insolvency or similar proceedings.

Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, when pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against Atlas, the Guaranteed Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any of the Obligors or any other Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Guaranteed Party to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments to enforce performance from any of the Obligors or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any of the Obligors or any such other Person or of any such collateral security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve Atlas of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Guaranteed Party against Atlas. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon Atlas and its successors and permitted assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Guaranteed Party and its successors and permitted assigns, until all the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been satisfied by unconditional and irrevocable payment or performance in full which shall occur simultaneously with the expiry or termination of the Commitments, unconditional and irrevocable payment in full of the Obligations and expiry or cancellation of all Letters of Credit (without any pending drawings) which have not otherwise been Cash Collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement, unless terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.

(vii)ANY OTHER ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT OR ANY OTHER EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE THAT (A) VARIES THE RISK OF ATLAS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR (B) BUT FOR THE PROVISIONS HEREOF, WOULD, AS A MATTER OF STATUTE OR RULE OF LAW OR EQUITY, OPERATE TO REDUCE, LIMIT OR TERMINATE THE OBLIGATIONS OF ATLAS THEREUNDER OR DISCHARGE ATLAS FROM ANY THEREOF (OTHER THAN ANY REDUCTION, LIMITATION OR TERMINATION OF THE OBLIGATION OF ATLAS OR THE DISCHARGE OF ATLAS THEREFROM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS GUARANTY).

No change in the name, objects, capital stock, membership or constitution of any Obligor shall in any way affect the liability of Atlas under this Guaranty, and the Guaranteed Obligations shall be guaranteed by this Guaranty notwithstanding that any amount of Program Debt incurred by an Obligor or any Loan Document entered into by an Obligor shall be in excess of the powers of that Obligor, or of its officers, directors or agents, acting or purporting to act on its behalf, or be in any way irregular or defective.

As between the Guaranteed Party and Atlas with respect to Atlas’ obligations under this Guaranty, Atlas hereby expressly further waives (i) all defenses (other than a defense of payment or performance) to, and all setoffs, counterclaims and claims of recoupment against the Guaranteed Obligations that may at any time be available to Atlas; (ii) any defense based upon, arising out of or in any way related to (a) any claim that any sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other properties or assets for the Guaranteed Obligations was not conducted in a commercially reasonable fashion or that a public sale, should the Security Trustee have elected so to proceed, was, in and of itself, not a commercially reasonable method of sale, (b) any claim that any election of remedies by the Guaranteed Party or any Finance Party, including the exercise by the Security Trustee of any rights against or in respect of any Collateral, impaired, reduced, released or otherwise extinguished any right that Atlas might otherwise have had against any Obligor or

any other guarantor or against any Collateral, including any right of subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement or contribution or right to obtain a deficiency judgment, (c) any claim based upon, arising out of or in any way related to any of the matters referred to in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 6 and (d) any claim that the Loan Documents should be strictly construed against the Guaranteed Party or any other Person; (iii) all defenses of any type or description to the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty; (iv) any reliance upon any representation or warranty made by any Person under or pursuant to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document; and (v) ALL OTHER DEFENSES (other than a defense of payment or performance) UNDER ANY APPLICABLE LAW THAT WOULD, BUT FOR THIS Section 6, BE AVAILABLE TO ATLAS AS A DEFENSE AGAINST OR A REDUCTION OR LIMITATION OF ITS LIABILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
