Ladies and Gentlemen:

This request for extension (the “Extension Request”) is made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the referenced Credit Agreement. Any capitalized terms appearing but not otherwise defined in this Extension Request shall have the meanings specified for those terms in the Credit Agreement.

(a)
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, each of the Loan Parties hereby requests that each Lender extend its respective Commitment Termination Date to February 8, 2025.

(b)
The Loan Parties, Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, for the purposes of this particular request for extension only, the Consent Date shall be January 17, 2020, and this Extension Request shall constitute Notice provided to Agent in accordance with Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement.

Each Lender so indicating on its signature page to this Extension Request (an “Extending Lender”) agrees to extend the Commitment Termination Date with respect to its Commitment to February 8, 2025 or to such other date specified on its



 

signature page to this Extension Request. By execution of this Extension Request, each Extending Lender agrees to waive the requirements of Section 2.11(a) solely to the extent that such Section requires notices to be received and delivered within specified times. This agreement to extend the Commitment Termination Date is subject in all respects to the terms of the Credit Agreement and is irrevocable.

(c)
Notwithstanding any provision hereof, of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Lender that is presently a party to the Credit Agreement or, subsequent to the date hereof, becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement by virtue of an assignment from another Lender, may, by written notice to Agent elect to extend the Commitment Termination Date with respect to its Commitment to a February 8th later than such current Commitment Termination Date, but not later than February 8, 2025. In such event, Agent shall be authorized and directed to make the necessary updates to the Register.

The Loan Parties, Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, except as expressly set forth in this Extension Request, all terms of the Credit Agreement shall remain unmodified and shall continue in full force and effect from and as of the date hereof. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Extension Request shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver or amendment of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.

This Extension Request shall become effective as of February 8, 2020 (provided that each of the Loan Parties, Agent and Lenders having Commitments equal to more than 50% of the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such date have executed and delivered this Extension Request on or prior to such date). On and after the effectiveness of this Extension Request, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as supplemented by this Extension Request. This Extension Request shall be deemed to constitute a Loan Document.

This Extension Request may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Extension Request by emailed pdf file or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually-executed counterpart signature page.

This Extension Request shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereunder (other than § 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law).
