2.The Borrowers desire to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement, and the Agent has agreed to make such amendments, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree to be bound as follows:
“Applicable Margin”: For any day, the rate per annum set forth below opposite the applicable Level then in effect (based on the Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter):
Tier | Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio | Applicable Margin |
I | Less than 3.00 to 1.00 | 3.00% |
II | Less than 4.00 to 1.00 but greater than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 | 3.50% |
III | Greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 | 4.00% |
Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(d) for the relevant fiscal quarter; provided, however, (a) the Borrowers shall provide notice to the Agent of any change in the Applicable Margin, and (b) that if a Compliance Certificate is not delivered when due in accordance with such Section, then, upon the request of the Required Lenders, the highest rate set forth in each column of the Applicable Margin, in each case as of the first Business Day after the date on which such Compliance Certificate was required to have been delivered and in each case shall remain in effect until the first Business Day following the date on which such Compliance Certificate is delivered. In addition, at all times when the rate of interest is determined, at the option of the Required Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.4(b), the highest rate set forth in each column of the Applicable Margin shall apply.
If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries or for any other reason, the Borrowers, or the Lenders determine that (i) the Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrowers as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the Agent (in its capacity as issuer of the Letters of Credit under this Agreement, or any successor to the Agent in such capacity), as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.
This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, under any provision of this Agreement to payment of any Obligations hereunder at the rate of interest determined under Section 2.4(b). The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the obligation of the Lenders to make Revolving Loans and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
The initial Applicable Margin shall be set forth in Tier I until the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 5.1(d) for the fiscal quarter ending on or about September 30, 2025. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Loans and Letters of Credit then existing or subsequently made or issued.

“Revolving Commitment Amount”: With respect to a Lender, the amount set opposite such Lender’s name on Schedule 1.1(a) hereto or opposite such caption in the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Lender becomes a party hereto, as applicable, as such amount may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Agreement; provided that the Revolving Commitment Amount shall be temporarily increased to be the amount set opposite such Lender’s name on Exhibit A attached to the Second Amendment starting from the Second Amendment Effective Date to April 30, 2026 (the “Temporarily Increased Revolving Commitments”).
“Second Amendment”: That certain Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of September 15, 2025.

Section 6.18Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio. Commencing on September 30, 2025, the Borrowers will not permit the Senior Cash Flow Leverage Ratio to be more than (a) 4.75 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025, (b) 4.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about March 31, 2026, (c) 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2026, (d) 2.75 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about December 31, 2026, (e) 2.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about December 31, 2027, and (f) 2.25 to 1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarters ending on or about December 31, 2028 and the last day of each fiscal quarter ending thereafter.
