(a)The following new definition is hereby added to Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement, inserted in proper alphabetical order:

(b)The definition of “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” in Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” shall mean, for any Interest Period,

(a)    with respect to the Revolving Facility, an interest rate per annum equal to (i) the Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period plus (ii) 0.10%; and

(a)Each existing Term B-1 Facility Lender that holds outstanding Term B-1 Facility Loans immediately prior to the Effective Date that does not execute a counterpart to this Third Amendment in the form attached hereto as Annex I (such counterpart, a “Consent”) will be deemed to be a “non-consenting Lender” for purposes of Section 13.04(b) of the Existing Credit Agreement (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender” and, collectively, the “Non-Consenting Lenders”). Borrower shall be deemed to have exercised its right pursuant to Section 13.04(b)(A) of the Existing Credit Agreement to replace the Non-Consenting Lenders and shall require that each Non-Consenting Lender assign all of its rights and obligations with respect to all of its Term B-1 Facility Loans to Banco Santander, S.A., New York Branch, as replacement lender (in such capacity, the “Replacement Lender”).

(b)Each of the parties hereto further agrees that (i) for purposes of this Third Amendment, the assignment of the Term B-1 Facility Loans by each Non-Consenting Lender to the Replacement Lender as contemplated by this Third Amendment shall be deemed effective upon (1) the execution of an Assignment Agreement executed by Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Replacement Lender, and the applicable Non-Consenting Lender; provided, that if the applicable Non-Consenting Lender does not execute the Assignment Agreement within one (1) Business Day (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Administrative Agent) after Borrower’s request, then the execution of such Assignment Agreement by such Non-Consenting Lender shall not be required to effect such assignment, and (2) satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 5(b) below, and (ii) following the effectiveness of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” and a “Term B-1 Facility Lender” under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Credit Agreement with respect to such Term B-1 Facility Loans so assigned, in each case in accordance with Section 13.05 of the Existing Credit Agreement.

(c)Each Term B-1 Facility Lender (including the Replacement Lender) that holds outstanding Term B-1 Facility Loans immediately prior to the Effective Date that executes a Consent shall be deemed to irrevocably and unconditionally approve the amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement set forth in Section 2.

4.Representations and Warranties. To induce the Term B-1 Facility Lenders to enter into this Third Amendment, Borrower and each of the other Credit Parties party hereto represent to the Term B-1 Facility Lendersand Administrative Agent that as of the Effective Date:
