As previously disclosed, on April 30, 2014, Solar Power, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a purchase agreement with certain non-U.S. investors whereby the Company agreed to sell and the investors agreed to purchase 135,937,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.16 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $21,750,000. On June 3, 2014, the Company and one of the non-U.S. investors agreed to amend the purchase agreement with respect to its investment in the Company to change a portion of the securities purchased from the Company from common stock to an $11 million convertible bond that may be converted into shares of Common Stock at $0.16 per share under certain conditions. The convertible bond is due and payable on April 29, 2015, and the Company has the option to extend the maturity date by two years. The holder may convert the convertible bond any time after (i) six months from the issuance date, (ii) the issuance by the Company of 46,517,812 or more of shares of the Company’s common stock, or (iii) the Company declares a cash dividend. In the event of default as defined in the convertible bond, the investor may declare the entire principal amount under the convertible bond immediately due and payable.
The foregoing description of the amendment and convertible bond is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the amendment and convertible bond, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

(b) Company’s option to extend the Maturity Date. If this Bond has not been converted by the terms of this Bond or earlier accelerated by the terms of this Bond on or before April 15, 2015, the Company has the sole power to extend the Maturity Date of this Bond to April 29, 2017. To execute this right, the Company shall send a written notice to the Holder no later than April 20, 2015 of its right to extend the Maturity Date.
(c) No payments of principal are required hereunder until the Maturity Date, except as may otherwise be provided herein.

3. Events of Default. If any of the following events shall occur (an “Event of Default”), the Holder of the Bond may, so long as such condition exists, declare the entire principal immediately due and payable, by notice in writing to the Company:
(a) a failure by the Company to pay as and when due the principal due on this Bond or any portion thereof, and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after delivery of notice from the Holder to the Company; or
(b) the institution by the Company of proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, or other similar official of the Company, or the making by Company of an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(c) if, within ninety (90) days after the commencement of an action against Company seeking any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or similar relief, such action shall not have been dismissed.
4. Conversion. The principal amount of this Bond may be partially (minimum of US $500,000 or in multiples thereof) or wholly converted into shares of common stock of the Company, as follows:
(a) Six Months. At any time at the option of the Holder after six months from the Issuance Date.
(b) Certain Events. Notwithstanding the provision of clause 4(a) above, at any time after the Issuance Date at the option of the Holder if the Company (i) issues shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock in an number equal to more than 46,517,812 (which represents 10% of the Company’s shares of Common Stock on a pro forma basis assuming the completion of the Company’s April 30, 2014 financing pursuant to a Purchase Agreement of which this Bond is a part of) in the aggregate; or (ii) the Company declares a cash dividend. If the Company intends to declare a cash dividend, it shall inform Holder at least 30 days prior to the dividend record date.
(c) Conversion Price The conversion price shall be $.0.16 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in the event of a share consolidation, stock split, stock dividend or similar actions declared by the Company.
(d) No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share upon any conversion of this Bond. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share, the Company shall round such fraction of a share up to the nearest whole share. All rights with respect to this Bond shall terminate upon conversion of the entire Bond as described above.
(e) Mechanics of Conversion. As promptly as practicable after the conversion of this Bond:
i. the portion of the Bond so converted shall be cancelled; and
ii. the Company will issue and deliver to the Holder of this Bond, a certificate or certificates representing the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion (and the issuance of such certificate or certificates shall be made without charge to the Holder of the Bond for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock).
5. General.

(e) Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Bond shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in whole or in part or in any respect, or in the event any one or more of the provisions of this Bond operate or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Bond, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Bond. In such instance, this Bond shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and the remaining provisions of this Bond shall remain operative and in full force and effect and in no way shall be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.
(f) No Setoff or Counterclaim. All payments by the Company under this Bond shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and be free and clear and without any deductions or withholding for any taxes or fees of any nature whatsoever, unless the obligation to make such deduction or withholding is imposed by law.
(g) Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any right under this Bond shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of the Holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion.
