W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Revolving Termination Date of the outstanding Revolving Commitments be extended in accordance with Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, (a) each existing Revolving Commitment extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be an “Extended Revolving Commitment” (and the Lenders signing this Agreement to hold such Extended Revolving Commitments, the “Accepting Lenders”) and (b) each existing Revolving Loan extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be an “Extended Revolving Loan”;

WHEREAS, each party whose name appears on the signature pages hereto has consented to the extension of the maturity date of all of its existing Revolving Commitments and existing Revolving Loans and shall constitute an Accepting Lender under the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement permits the Company, each Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent to enter into an Extension Agreement to effectuate the extension of Revolving Commitments, and this Agreement is an Extension Agreement under the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Company, the Accepting Lenders party hereto and the Administrative Agent are willing to agree to this Agreement on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of all of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendment. Effective as of the Extension Agreement Effective Date (as defined below), the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a) Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the following definition in its entirety:

“Revolving Termination Date” means August 8, 2023.

(b) The column relating to Revolving Commitments set forth on Schedule 1.1A of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the Revolving Commitments set forth on Schedule 1.1A to this Agreement.

SECTION 2. Extended Revolving Commitments.

(a) Each existing Revolving Lender that executes and delivers a signature page to this Agreement indicating that such Person is an “Accepting Lender” will have agreed to the terms of this Agreement upon the effectiveness of this Agreement on the Extension Agreement Effective Date as an Accepting Lender. The Extended Revolving Commitments of any Accepting Lender will be the amount set forth opposite such Accepting Lender on Schedule 1.1A hereto. On and after the Extension Agreement Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement and this Agreement to (i) “Revolving Commitment” shall include the Extended Revolving Commitments as contemplated hereby and (ii) “Revolving Loan” shall include the Extended Revolving Loans as contemplated hereby.

(b) On and following the Extension Agreement Effective Date, the Extended Revolving Commitments and the Extended Revolving Loans shall be Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans with the same terms (except as to final maturity) as the existing Revolving Commitments and existing Revolving Loans; provided that all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their pro rata share of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and all borrowings under Revolving Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis.

(c) On the Extension Agreement Effective Date, all existing Revolving Loans shall be repaid, together with accrued interest then due and payable, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Extension Agreement Effective Date, and reborrowed as Extended Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement. Each Revolving Lender party hereto hereby agrees that (i) the requirements set forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.4 of the Credit Agreement with respect to the repayment and borrowings set forth in this Section 2(c) shall be deemed satisfied by this Agreement and (ii) Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall not apply to any repayment made pursuant to this Section 2(c).

(d) Fees. The Company hereby agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each of the Accepting Lenders, a consent fee in an amount equal to 0.05% of each Accepting Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment, payable on the Extension Agreement Effective Date (the “Consent Fee”).

(e) With respect to any Lender with existing Revolving Commitments that are not extended as Extended Revolving Commitments, the Borrower hereby exercises its right under Section 10.1(c) of the Credit Agreement to replace each such Lender by requiring that it assign all of its existing Revolving Commitments to one or more of the Accepting Lenders. Pursuant to Section 10.1(c) of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that, upon each such Lender’s receipt of the amount necessary to purchase each such Lender’s Revolving Commitments, at par, and pay all accrued interest thereon, such existing Revolving Commitments shall be deemed assigned to one or more of the Accepting Lenders pursuant to this Agreement (with each such Accepting Lender’s adjusted Revolving Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1.1A hereto) and, accordingly, no other action by the Borrower, any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent hereby waives the processing and recordation fees under Section 10.6(b)(ii)(B) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the foregoing deemed assignment of Revolving Commitments.
