Re:    That certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2020 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, increased, extended, refinanced, renewed, replaced, and/or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Aaron’s, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the “Borrower”), Aaron’s Spinco, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Holdings”) and the other Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and Truist Bank, as Administrative Agent.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.
The Borrower has requested that Truist Bank, in its capacity as an Issuing Bank, issue Letters of Credit in favor of the Borrower in a principal amount in excess of Truist Bank’s existing LC Commitment.
The Borrower has requested that the Lenders, by act of the Required Lenders, amend the Credit Agreement in order to increase Truist Bank’s LC Commitment from $14,000,000 to $17,500,000. For purposes of clarity, the aggregate LC Sublimit of $35,000,000 for all Issuing Banks shall not be increased. By signing below, your institution agrees to amend the Credit Agreement by replacing the text “$14,000,000” in the definition of “LC Commitment” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement with the text “$17,500,000”.
This letter agreement shall constitute the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (this “First Amendment”) and a Loan Document and may be executed by one or more of the parties to this First Amendment on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this letter agreement by facsimile transmission or by any other electronic imaging means (including .pdf), shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this letter agreement.
This First Amendment shall be effective upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of counterparts hereof duly executed by each of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders, and the Borrower.
This letter agreement and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of, or relating to this letter agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof) of the State of New York.
