THIS THIRD AMENDMENT (this “Amendment”) dated as of December 16, 2021 to the Credit Agreement referenced below is by and among FOX FACTORY HOLDING CORP., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors identified on the signature pages hereto, the Lenders identified on the signature pages hereto and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

WHEREAS, credit facilities have been extended to the Borrower pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, modified, supplemented and extended from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of March 11, 2020 among the Borrower, the Lenders identified therein and the Administrative Agent; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested certain modifications to the Credit Agreement, and all the Lenders have agreed to the requested modifications on the terms set forth herein.

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

1.Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

2.Amendments to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a)(i) The definition of “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

“Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio” means, as of any date, the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP to (b) Consolidated Interest Expense (excluding non-cash interest expense relating to Permitted Convertible Indebtedness) paid in cash for such period, in each case measured for the four consecutive Fiscal Quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date for which financial statements are required to have been delivered under this Agreement.

and (ii) each instance of “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” in the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced with “Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio”.

(b)The definition of “Consolidated Fixed Charges” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.

(c)The definition of “Material Indebtedness” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Material Indebtedness” means any Indebtedness (other than the Loans and the Letters of Credit) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries individually or in an aggregate committed or outstanding principal amount exceeding 7.5% of Consolidated EBITDA. For purposes of determining the amount of attributed Indebtedness from Hedging Obligations, the “principal amount” of any Hedging Obligations at any time shall be the Net Mark-to-Market Exposure of such Hedging Obligations.

(d)The definition of “Permitted Acquisition” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended by deleting clauses (a), (e) and (f) and renumbering the remaining clauses (a) through (i).

(e)The definition of “Permitted Encumbrance” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended (i) by deleting the “and” at the end of clause (r), (ii) by deleting the “.” at the end of clause (s) and replacing same with “; and”, and (iii) adding the following new clause (t) at the end of said definition:

(t)    Liens on equipment, inventory and/or goods of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries granted in the ordinary course of business to a warehouseman, bailee, processor or other third party which stores and/or has temporary possession of any such equipment, inventory and/or goods.

(f)Section 2.16(i) of the Credit Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(i)    the aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loans effected pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall not exceed (A) $200,000,000 plus (B) an unlimited amount so long as after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Facility Loans (assuming the full amount of the Incremental Facility Loans have been funded) and any related transactions, on a Pro Forma Basis, the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, based on the last Fiscal Quarter ended for which financial statements have been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.01(b), is less than 3.25:1.00;

(g)Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Section 5.10     ERISA. Except, in each case, as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Plan is in substantial compliance in form and operation with its terms and with ERISA and the Code (including, without limitation, the Code provisions compliance with which is necessary for any intended favorable tax treatment) and all other applicable laws and regulations. Each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code covering all applicable tax law changes, or is comprised of a master or prototype plan that has received a favorable opinion letter from the IRS, and nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that would adversely affect such determination (or, in the case of a Plan with no determination, nothing has occurred that would adversely affect the issuance of a favorable determination letter or otherwise adversely affect such qualification). No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, which individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There exists no Unfunded Pension Liability with respect to any Plan, except for a liability that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate is making or accruing an obligation to make contributions, or has, within any of the five (5) calendar years immediately preceding the date this assurance is given or deemed given, made or accrued an obligation to make, contributions to any Multiemployer Plan. There are no actions, suits or claims pending against or involving a Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate, threatened, which would reasonably be expected to be asserted successfully against any Plan and, if so asserted successfully, would reasonably be expected either singly or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower, each of its Subsidiaries and each ERISA Affiliate have made all contributions to or under each Plan and Multiemployer Plan required by law within the applicable time limits prescribed thereby, by the terms of such Plan or Multiemployer Plan, respectively, or by any contract or agreement requiring contributions to a Plan or Multiemployer Plan. No Plan which is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA has applied for or received an extension of any amortization period within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA. None of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate have ceased operations at a facility so as to become subject to the provisions of Section 4068(a) of ERISA, withdrawn as a substantial employer so as to become subject to the provisions of Section 4063 of ERISA or ceased making contributions to any Plan subject to Section 4064(a) of ERISA to which it made contributions. Each Non-U.S. Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, except as would not reasonably be expected to result in liability to the

Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. All contributions required to be made with respect to a Non-U.S. Plan have been timely made. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Non-U.S. Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Non-U.S. Plan, determined as of the end of the Borrower’s most recently ended Fiscal Year on the basis of reasonable actuarial assumptions, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Non-U.S. Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.

(h)The first sentence in the paragraph following clause (g) in Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a), 6.01(b), Section 6.01(e) or Section 6.02(c) (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which such materials are publicly available as posted on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (EDGAR), (ii) on which the Borrower posts such documents, or provides a link thereto on the Borrower’s website on the Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 11.02; or (iii) on which such documents are posted on the Borrower’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent); provided that: (i) the Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such documents to the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon its written request to the Borrower to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and (ii) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender (by facsimile or e-mail) of the posting of any such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent by e-mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery of or to maintain paper copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by the Borrower with any such request by a Lender for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents.

(i)Section 6.02(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(d)    promptly and in any event within fifteen (15) days of the occurrence of any ERISA Event that, alone or together with any other ERISA Events that have occurred, could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount exceeding $10,000,000; and
