Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(b) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(A) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the



Borrower so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders that such Required Lenders (A) in the case of an amendment to replace the LIBO Rate with a SOFR-Based Rate, object to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement that is not a SOFR-Based Rate, object to such amendment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Required Lenders shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(B) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(C) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (3) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (4) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.03(b).

(D) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a LIBO Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Base Rate based upon the LIBO Rate will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.”



n.Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the two last provisos in clause (b) of such Section and substituting the following in their stead:

“; provided that (x) prior to the Commitment Reduction Date and (y) at any time that a Monthly Borrowing Base Delivery Event has occurred and is continuing, such Borrowing Base Certificate (which prior to the Commitment Reduction Date shall include a report on the aggregate amount of cash on hand) shall be delivered on the 15th day of each Fiscal Month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), in each case, as of the close of business as of the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Month; provided further that at any time that a Weekly Borrowing Base Delivery Event has occurred and is continuing, such Borrowing Base Certificate (which prior to the Commitment Reduction Date shall include a report on the aggregate amount of cash on hand) shall be delivered on Tuesday of each week (or, if Tuesday is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), in each case, as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Saturday;”

o.Section 10.01(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the conjunction “and” before clause (y) and (ii) adding the following new clause (z) at the end of such paragraph:
