Exhibit 10.1
FIRST AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of August 13, 2018 (this “Agreement”), by and among Snap Inc. (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party hereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, reference is hereby made to the Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”; the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined), by and among the Borrower, the Lenders and Issuing Banks from time to time party thereto, and the Administrative Agent;
WHEREAS, the Borrower hereby requests that (a) the Maturity Date be extended to August 13, 2023 (the “Extended Revolving Maturity Date”) and (b) the other amendments reflected in this Agreement be effected, in each case, as of the Effective Date (as defined below);
WHEREAS, (a) each existing Revolving Commitment extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be an “Extended Revolving Commitment” (with each existing Revolving Commitment not so extended, a “Non-Extended Revolving Commitment”), and (b) each existing Revolving Loan extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be an “Extending Revolving Loan” (with each existing Revolving Loan not so extended, a “Non-Extending Revolving Loan”); and
WHEREAS, each Lender party hereto whose name is set forth on Schedule I hereto under the heading “Extending Lenders” has consented to the extension of the maturity date of all of its Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date (each such consenting Lender, an “Extending Lender”; and each non-consenting Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”);
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.Maturity Date Extension. Each of the following transactions will occur on the Effective Date after the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 have been satisfied:
(a)Each Extending Lender agrees that all of its existing Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans will be modified to become an Extended Revolving Commitment and Extending Revolving Loans, respectively, of like amount. The existing Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans of each Non-Extending Lender will remain outstanding as Non-Extended Revolving Commitments and Non-Extending Revolving Loans, respectively. The initial Interest Period applicable to each Non-Extending Revolving Loan and Extending Revolving Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan, Australian Bank Bill Rate Loan, Canadian BA Rate Loan or a EURIBOR Loan will be the then-current Interest Period applicable to such existing Revolving Loan from which it is converted with no conversion into a different Interest Period, or payment or prepayment of such Loan being deemed to have occurred solely due to this Agreement or the transactions described herein. Each existing Revolving Loan of an Extending Lender that is a Eurodollar Loan, ABR Loan, Australian Bank Bill Rate Loan, Canadian BA Rate Loan, or a EURIBOR Loan will be converted into an Extending Revolving Loan of the same Type.
2.Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3 hereof, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

“(q)other Liens securing obligations not otherwise permitted hereunder in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $500,000,000.”
(c)Section 6.04(viii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“(viii) so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, the Borrower may declare or make Restricted Payments not otherwise permitted under this Section 6.04 in an amount not to exceed (a) $100,000,000 plus (b) additional Restricted Payments in an amount not to exceed $900,000,000 so long as, solely in the case of this clause (b), (x) the Borrower has provided the financial statements required by Section 5.01(a) or (b), as applicable, (y) the Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the most recently ended Measurement Period for which financial statements have been delivered is greater than zero, and (z) the Senior Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Restricted Payment as of the most recently ended Measurement Period for which financial statements have been delivered; provided that, in each case, after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payment, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have Liquidity of at least $300,000,000;”
(d)Section 6.04(ix) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“(ix) so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, the Borrower may make Restricted Payments not otherwise permitted under this Section 6.04 using the proceeds of any issuance of Equity Interests (provided that such Restricted Payment and the issuance of Equity Interests are substantially concurrent); provided further that, after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payment, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have Liquidity of at least $300,000,000;”
