PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
(1) The Company, the Lenders and the Agent have entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of January 22, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of April 28, 2021 (as so amended, the Credit Agreement). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the same meanings as specified in the Credit Agreement.
(2) Pursuant to Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, the Company has requested that the Termination Date (a) with respect to any Tranche A Lender be extended from January 22, 2026 to January 22, 2027 and (b) with respect to any Tranche B Lender be extended from January 22, 2024 to January 22, 2025.
(3) The Company has requested certain amendments to the Credit Agreement, and the parties hereto agree to such amendments as set forth in, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of, this Amendment (the Credit Agreement as so amended, the Amended Credit Agreement).
SECTION 1. Consent to Extension Request. Each Lender so indicating on its signature page to this Amendment agrees to extend the Termination Date with respect to its Tranche A Commitment for a period of one year, expiring January 22, 2027 and to extend the Termination Date with respect to its Tranche B Commitment for a period of one year, expiring January 22, 2025 (each such Lender, an Extending Lender). This agreement to extend the Termination Date is subject in all respects to the terms of the Credit Agreement, other than the provisions of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement that specify the date by which the Company must submit an extension request, the date by which Extending Lenders submit responses or the date by which the Agent must notify the Company of each Appropriate Lenders determination, which provisions are hereby waived. For the avoidance of doubt, upon satisfaction (or waiver) of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4 below, the extension of the Termination Date of each Extending Lender shall be effective on February 10, 2023.
SECTION 2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. (a) Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5(a) below, the Lenders and the Company hereby agree to amend the definition of Benchmark Replacement Adjustment in Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement to read as follows:
Benchmark Replacement Adjustment means, with respect to (i) any Advance denominated in Dollars bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to a SOFR rate, 0.10% and (ii) any replacement of any then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Agent and the Company giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body and/or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for syndicated credit facilities denominated in the applicable Currency at such time.
(b) As of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5(b) below, the Lenders and the Company hereby agree to amend the Credit Agreement to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Amended Credit Agreement attached as Annex A hereto.
