Material Agreement Form 8 K

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 1, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Second Incremental Amendment") to the credit and guaranty agreement, dated as of May 10, 2022 (as amended by the First Incremental Amendment, dated as of September 29, 2023, as further amended by the Second Incremental Amendment, the "Credit Agreement"), by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as subsidiary guarantors, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as second incremental term facility administrative agent, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $400,000,000 of new term loans (the "Second Incremental Term Loans").

The Second Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to the Second Incremental Amendment will mature on May 10, 2027 and will amortize in quarterly installments (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2025) equal to (x) for the first eight installments, 0.625% of the original principal amount of the Second Incremental Term Loans and (y) for each installment thereafter, 1.875% of the original principal amount of the Second Incremental Term Loans, with the balance payable on the maturity date of the Second Incremental Term Loans. The proceeds of the Second Incremental Term Loans were used in part to repay revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the remainder will be used for general corporate purposes. The Second Incremental Term Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the borrower's option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the rate of interest quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the "Prime Rate," (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% or (3) term SOFR for a period of one month plus 1.00% (or if such rate shall not be ascertainable, 1.00%) or (b) term SOFR for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable interest rate margins for the Second Incremental Term Loans are 2.25% per annum with respect to base rate borrowings and 3.25% per annum with respect to term SOFR borrowings. Except as amended by the Second Incremental Amendment, the terms of the Credit Agreement were not otherwise amended.

The foregoing description of the Second Incremental Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Second Incremental Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
