1.5Amendment to Section 2.1. Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Section 2.1    Commitments to Lend. Each Term Loan Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Term Loans to the Borrower pursuant to this Section from time to time in up to four (4) Borrowings during the Term Loan Commitment Period as requested by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2 in an amount not to exceed its Term Loan Commitment; provided that (i) if the Borrower does not make Borrowings of Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments as in effect on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date on or prior to April 3, 2023 then the Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments shall be reduced in accordance with Section 2.9, (ii) all Borrowings of Term Loans shall be made no later than the last day of the Term Loan Commitment Period, (iii) the aggregate principal amount of any such Borrowing of Term Loans shall not exceed the amount of the unused total Term Loan Commitments on the date of such Borrowing of Term Loans, and (iv) the principal amount of Term Loans made by any Term Loan Bank to the Borrower shall not exceed such Term Loan Bank’s Term Loan Commitment.

If the Term Loan Amount shall be increased in accordance with Section 9.17, each Term Loan Bank whose Term Loan Commitment shall have been increased in accordance therewith or who shall have become a Term Loan Bank hereunder, severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Term Loans to the Borrower pursuant to this Section from time to time in amounts such that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans by such Term Loan Bank at any one time outstanding shall not exceed the amount of its Term Loan Commitment.

3



in proportion to their respective Term Loan Commitments. Any Term Loans that are repaid may not be reborrowed.
1.6Amendment to Section 2.9. Section 2.9 of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Section 2.9    Mandatory Termination or Reduction. On April 3, 2023, if the Borrower has not made Borrowings of the Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of at least equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments as in effect on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, then the Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments will be reduced, automatically and without further action by any party, to two times the Borrowing of Term Loans made during the period commencing on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date and terminating on April 3, 2023, and the Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments and Term Loan Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such reduction (for example, if the Borrower has made only $25,000,000 of additional Borrowings of Term Loans by April 3, 2023, then the available unused Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments shall be permanently reduced from $100,000,000 to $50,000,000 on such date). If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent those notices required by Section 2.11(d) that are necessary pursuant to Section 2.9 to reflect the reductions in the unused Amendment No. 1 Incremental Commitments described in the preceding sentence.
1.7Amendment to Section 9.17(a). The first sentence of Section 9.17(a) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:

1.8Request under Section 9.17(a) of Credit Agreement.
(a)The Administrative Agent and the Banks party hereto hereby waive the requirement under Section 9.17(a) of the Credit Agreement that the Borrower provide written notice to the Administrative Agent of its request for New Term Loan Commitments.
(b)This Amendment No. 1 is and shall be deemed to be for all purposes of the Credit Agreement the partial exercise by the Borrower of its rights under Section 9.17(a) of the Credit Agreement (as amended by this Amendment No. 1) to request an increase of the Term Loan Commitments. From and after the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall be able to request additional Incremental Commitments of up to $150,000,000 pursuant to Section 9.17 of the Credit Agreement.
