You acknowledge that the following documents may be distributed to Public Lenders, unless you notify the Lead Arrangers in writing (including by email) within a reasonable period of time prior to the intended distribution that any such document contains Private Lender Information (provided that such materials have been provided to you for review a reasonable period of time prior thereto): (x) term sheets and drafts and final versions of the Credit Documentation and the Amendment; (y) administrative materials prepared by the Lead Arrangers for prospective Lenders (or lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement, in the case of the Amendment) (such as a lender meeting invitation, allocation, if any, customary marketing term sheets and funding and closing memoranda); and (z) notification of changes in the terms and conditions of the Amendment and the Facilities.

You agree that if at any time prior to the later of the Closing Date and the end of the Syndication Period, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections and other forward-looking information were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly advise the Agents and supplement (or in the case of Information or Projections relating to the Target prior to the Closing Date, use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement) the Information and the Projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects under those circumstances (or (x) as to Information relating to the Target prior to the Closing Date, correct to your knowledge in all material respects under those circumstances and/or (y) as to Projections and any forward looking information relating to the Target, prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that you believe to be reasonable at the time made and at the time such Projections or other forward looking information are made available to the Agents), it being understood that any such supplement shall cure

You may terminate the Initial Lenders’ commitments with respect to the Facilities hereunder at any time in their entirety (or any portion thereof on a pro rata basis among the Initial Lenders), subject to the provisions of the preceding sentence, by written notice to the Initial Lenders.

Each Initial Lender’s commitments with respect to the Committed Facilities as set forth above, and each Agent’s agreements to perform the services described herein, will automatically terminate (without further action or notice) on the first to occur of (i) 11:59 P.M.

The transactions described above, together with the transactions related thereto, are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions”. This Exhibit A, the Backstop Term Sheet, the Interim Facility Term Sheet and the Conditions Precedent attached hereto as Exhibit D are collectively referred to herein as the “Term Sheets”. The Backstop Facility, the Interim Facility and the Best Efforts Facilities are collectively referred to herein as the “Facilities”.

The Backstop Facility Documentation, the Interim Facility Documentation (as defined in Exhibit C to the Commitment Letter) and the definitive documentation in respect of the Best Efforts Facilities are collectively referred to herein as the “Credit Documentation”. The Backstop Facility Documentation and the Interim Facility Documentation are collectively referred to herein as the “Committed Facilities Documentation”. For purposes of this Commitment Letter, “Closing Date” shall mean the date of the initial funding under any of the Facilities and the consummation of the Acquisition.


Borrower:			Maximus, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Borrower”).
Administrative Agent:			JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”) will act as sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Backstop Administrative Agent”) for the Backstop Facility (as defined below).
Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners:			JPMCB will act as lead arranger and bookrunner for the Backstop Facility (as defined below) (together with its designated affiliates and any additional joint lead arrangers or bookrunners appointed pursuant to Section 2 of the Commitment Letter (if any), each in such capacity, a “Backstop Lead Arranger” and, together, the “Backstop Lead Arrangers”), and will perform the duties customarily associated with such roles.
Lenders:			A syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other lenders arranged by the Backstop Lead Arrangers in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter (the “Lenders”).
Backstop Facility:			A senior unsecured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million (the “Backstop Facility”), which Backstop Facility shall be available in dollars, Euro, Sterling, Yen, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars and (subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Backstop Facility Lenders) other lawful currencies that are readily available, freely transferable and convertible into dollars (all of the foregoing currencies, other than dollars, “Alternative Currencies”); provided that the aggregate outstanding amount of Backstop Facility Loans denominated in, and letters of credit issued in, Alternative Currencies shall not exceed $100,000,000 (the “Alternative Currency Sublimit”). Lenders with commitments (“Backstop Commitments”) under the Backstop Facility are collectively referred to as “Backstop Facility Lenders” and the loans thereunder, together with (unless the context otherwise requires) the swingline borrowings referred to below, are collectively referred to as “Backstop Loans”.
Swingline Loans:			In connection with the Backstop Facility, JPMCB (in such capacity, a “Swingline Lender”) will make available to the Borrower a swingline facility of up to $15,000,000 on terms at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement.


Letters of Credit:			Up to $50,000,000 of the Backstop Facility, with individual caps for each Issuing Bank to be agreed, will be available to the Borrower for the purpose of issuing letters of credit in dollars and Alternative Currencies; provided that the aggregate outstanding amount of Backstop Facility Loans denominated in, and letters of credit issued in, Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. Letters of credit under the Backstop Facility (“Letters of Credit”) will be issued by each Initial Lender and/or other Backstop Facility Lenders reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Backstop Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) who agree to issue letters of credit (each, an “Issuing Bank”). Each Letter of Credit shall expire not later than the earlier of (a) 12 months after its date of issuance or such longer period as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and (b) the fifth business day prior to the Backstop Loan Maturity Date (as defined below); provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for automatic renewal thereof for additional periods of up to 12 months or such longer period as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank (which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (b) above, except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the relevant Issuing Bank). The face amount of any outstanding letter of credit (and, without duplication, any unpaid drawing in respect thereof) will reduce availability under the Backstop Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of loans under the Backstop Facility) within one business day after notice of such drawing is received by the Borrower from the relevant Issuing Bank. The Backstop Facility Lenders will be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to acquire participations in each letter of credit, pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Backstop Facility, and to fund such participations in the event the Borrower does not reimburse an Issuing Bank for drawings within the time period specified above.


Incremental Facilities:			The Backstop Facility Documentation (as defined below) will permit the Borrower to increase commitments under the Backstop Facility (any such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Increase”) in an aggregate principal amount for all such increases not to exceed $600,000,000; provided that (i) no existing Lender will be required to participate in any such Incremental Revolving Increase without its consent, (ii) no default or event of default (limited, in the case of an incurrence to fund an acquisition or other investment permitted hereunder, to Specified Event of Default) under the Backstop Facility would exist after giving effect thereto, (iii) all of the representations and warranties contained in the Backstop Facility Documentation (or, in the case of an incurrence to fund an acquisition or other investment permitted hereunder, subject to the Limited Condition Provision, the Specified Representations) shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in all respects, if qualified by materiality) and (iv) the Incremental Revolving Increase shall be on the same terms and pursuant to the exact same documentation applicable to the Backstop Facility. The Borrower may seek commitments in respect of the Incremental Revolving Increase from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other lenders (other than Disqualified Institutions) who will become Lenders in connection therewith (“Additional Lenders”); provided that the Backstop Administrative Agent shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to each such Additional Lender, if such consent would be required for an assignment of loans or commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender; provided, further, that the Swingline Lender and Issuing Banks shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to such Additional Lender, if such consent would be required for an assignment of revolving loans or commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender.


Limited Condition Provision:			In the case of the incurrence of any indebtedness (other than the incurrence of any Loan or Letter of Credit (other than any Loan pursuant to an Incremental Revolving Increase) under the Backstop Facility) or liens or the making of any restricted payment, or the designation of any restricted subsidiaries or unrestricted subsidiaries or any other action restricted by the terms of the Credit Documentation, in each case, in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, each at the Borrower’s option, any relevant ratios and baskets shall be determined, the accuracy of representations and warranties in all material respects (other than the Specified Representations) shall be determined, or any default or event of default blocker (other than a Specified Event of Default blocker) shall be tested, either, at the option of the Borrower, (a) at the time of delivery of irrevocable notice with respect to such transaction, (b) the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction or entered into or (c) at the time of the completion of such transaction or the making of such repurchase or repayment, as applicable, in each case after giving effect to the relevant transaction, any related debt (including the intended use of proceeds thereof) and all other permitted pro forma adjustments on a pro forma basis; provided that if the Borrower has made such an election, in connection with the calculation of any ratio or basket on or following the such date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires or such irrevocable notice is rescinded, as applicable, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other pro forma events in connection therewith (including any incurrence of indebtedness) have been consummated. The provisions of this paragraph are referred to herein as the “Limited Condition Provision”. As used herein, “Limited Condition Transaction” means (a) any acquisition or other investment whose consummation is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third party financing and (b) the redemption or repayment of indebtedness requiring irrevocable notice in advance of such redemption of repayment. As used herein, “Specified Event of Default” means (a) any payment Event of Default and (b) any bankruptcy Event of Default.


Unrestricted Subsidiaries			Subject to no event of default and other terms and conditions to be agreed (including limitations on loans and advances to, and other investments (including with respect to intellectual property) in, unrestricted subsidiaries), the Borrower may designate any subsidiary as an “unrestricted subsidiary” and subsequently re-designate any such unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary. Unrestricted subsidiaries will be excluded from the guarantee requirements and will not be subject to the representations and warranties, covenants, events of default or other provisions of the Credit Documentation, and the results of operations and indebtedness of unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of calculating any financial metric contained in the Credit Documentation except to the extent of distributions actually received therefrom. The re-designation of an unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary will be deemed to be an incurrence by the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries of the debt and liens of such unrestricted subsidiary at the time of re-designation thereof.
Use of Proceeds:			The Backstop Loans shall be utilized for working capital and other general corporate purposes (it being understood and agreed that Letters of Credit may be issued on the Closing Date in the ordinary course of business and to replace or provide credit support for any existing letters of credit of the Borrower or its subsidiaries or the Target (including by “grandfathering” such existing letters of credit into the Backstop Facility)); provided that on the Closing Date, Backstop Loans shall be used solely (i) for working capital purposes (including to replace amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Facility), (ii) to fund any original issue discount or upfront fees pursuant to the “flex” provisions of the Fee Letters and (iii) up to an additional amount to be agreed for other purposes (the use of loans for purposes of (and in amounts permitted by) clauses (i) through (iii) above, “Closing Date Purposes”).
Availability:			The Backstop Facility (including Letters of Credit and Backstop Loans) will be made available on and after the Closing Date until the day prior to the final maturity of the Backstop Facility, in minimum principal amounts to be agreed upon (and at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement). Amounts repaid under the Backstop Facility may be re-borrowed.
Maturity:			The final maturity date of the Backstop Facility shall be September 22, 2022 (the “Backstop Maturity Date”).
Guarantees:			The obligations under the Backstop Facility will be unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by each existing or subsequently acquired or organized wholly-owned Material Subsidiary (to be defined in a manner at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement) that is a restricted domestic subsidiary of the Borrower (including the Target and its subsidiaries that are wholly-owned restricted domestic Material Subsidiaries), subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law and other exceptions to be agreed (the “Guarantors”).
Security			None.


Voluntary Prepayment:			The Borrower may prepay the Backstop Facility at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty (other than LIBOR breakage cost), upon written notice, in minimum principal amounts to be agreed (and at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement). The unutilized portion of any commitment under the Backstop Facility may be reduced in minimum principal amounts to be agreed (and at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement) or terminated by the Borrower at any time without penalty.
Mandatory Commitment Reductions:			Prior to the Closing Date and subject to certain exceptions to be mutually agreed, the commitments in respect of the Backstop Facility shall be automatically reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the incurrence of any revolving indebtedness for borrowed money by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or the receipt by the Borrower or any of its affiliates of revolving commitments in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money (including commitments in respect of the Best Efforts Revolving Facility) so long as the conditions to borrowing of such indebtedness on the Closing Date for Closing Date Purposes are (other than with respect to customary limited conditionality provisions related to (i) provision of security on the Closing Date and (ii) representations related to security on the Closing Date) not more restrictive than the conditions to borrowing of the Backstop Facility on the Closing Date.
Mandatory Prepayments:			If at any time the outstandings pursuant to the Backstop Facility (including Letter of Credit outstandings and swingline loans) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of Backstop Loans and/or Swingline Loans (and/or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess. If at any time the outstandings pursuant to the Backstop Facility (including Letter of Credit outstandings) denominated in foreign currencies exceed 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, prepayments of Backstop Loans denominated in foreign currencies (and/or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit denominated in foreign currencies) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess.


Interest Rates and Undrawn Commitment Fee:			At the Borrower’s option, dollar denominated loans under the Backstop Facility may be maintained from time to time as (x) ABR Loans (as defined below), which shall bear interest at ABR (as defined below) in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin (as defined below) or (y) the Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans, which shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined below), plus the Applicable Margin; provided that all swingline loans shall bear interest based upon the ABR. Loans under the Backstop Facility denominated in foreign currencies shall accrue interest based on the floating rate applicable for loans of such currency in accordance with the Backstop Administrative Agent’s customary convention plus the Applicable Margin in respect of Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans. “Applicable Margin” shall mean, at any date, a percentage per annum equal to (x) initially, (A) with respect to ABR Loans, 0.75% and (B) with respect to Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans, 1.75%; provided that from and after the delivery by the Borrower to the Backstop Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s financial statements for the period ending at least one full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, the Applicable Margin for Backstop Loans shall be determined in accordance with the Pricing Grid set forth below (with the level being set based on the Leverage Ratio (to be defined in a manner at least as favorable to the Borrower as under the Existing Credit Agreement)). “ABR” means the Alternate Base Rate, which is the highest of the prime rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal, the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00% and a daily rate equal to one-month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.00%, and subject to a floor of 1.00% per annum. “ABR Loans” means the borrowings made under the Backstop Facility bearing interest based upon ABR. “Adjusted LIBO Rate” means the LIBO Rate, as adjusted for statutory reserve requirements for eurocurrency liabilities. “Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans” means the borrowings made under the Backstop Facility bearing interest based upon Adjusted LIBO Rate. “Federal Funds Effective Rate” means, for any day, the rate calculated by the NYFRB based on such day’s federal funds transactions by depositary institutions, as determined in such manner as the NYFRB shall set forth on its public website from time to time, and published on the next succeeding business day by the NYFRB as the federal funds effective rate, provided that if the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to zero for the purposes of calculating such rate.


			“Interpolated Rate” means, at any time, for any interest period, the rate per annum (rounded to the same number of decimal places as the LIBO Screen Rate) determined by the Backstop Administrative Agent (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) to be equal to the rate that results from interpolating on a linear basis between: (a) the LIBO Screen Rate for the longest period (for which the LIBO Screen Rate is available for the applicable currency) that is shorter than the Impacted Interest Period; and (b) the LIBO Screen Rate for the shortest period (for which that LIBO Screen Rate is available for the applicable currency) that exceeds the Impacted Interest Period, in each case, at such time. “LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Adjusted LIBO Rate borrowing for any applicable currency and for any interest period, the LIBO Screen Rate at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two business days prior to the commencement of such interest period; provided that if the LIBO Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for such interest period (an “Impacted Interest Period”) with respect to the applicable currency then the LIBO Rate shall be the Interpolated Rate. “LIBO Screen Rate” means, for any day and time, with respect to any eurodollar borrowing for any interest period, the London interbank offered rate as administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other person that takes over the administration of such rate for the relevant currency) for a period equal in length to such interest period as displayed on pages LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Reuters screen that displays such rate (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen that displays such rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Backstop Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided that if the LIBO Screen Rate as so determined would be less than 0.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 0.00% for the purposes of calculating such rate. In respect of Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans, the Borrower may elect interest periods of 1, 3 or 6 months or, to the extent agreed to by all Backstop Lenders, 12 months or periods shorter than 1 month as are satisfactory to the Backstop Administrative Agent. The Backstop Facility Documentation will include customary “hardwired” LIBOR replacement language. Interest in respect of ABR Loans shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar quarter. Interest in respect of Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans shall be payable in arrears at the end of the applicable interest period and every three months in the case of interest periods in excess of three months. Interest will also be payable at the time of repayment of any such loans and at maturity. All interest on ABR Loans, Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans and commitment fees and any other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (or, in the case of ABR Loans determined by reference to the prime lending rate, a 365/366-day year and actual days elapsed).


			The Borrower shall initially pay a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the Backstop Facility, payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the last business day of the first full fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date, calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. From and after the delivery by the Borrower to the Backstop Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s financial statements for the period ending at least one full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, the Commitment Fee under the Backstop Facility shall be determined in accordance with the Pricing Grid set forth below (with the level being set based on the Leverage Ratio). Such fees shall be distributed to the Backstop Facility Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Backstop Facility Lender’s Backstop Commitment, with exceptions for defaulting lenders. The Applicable Margin with respect to the Backstop Loans and the Commitment Fee with respect to the Backstop Facility, for each fiscal quarter, shall be the applicable rate per annum set forth in the table below opposite the Leverage Ratio, determined as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter.


Default Interest:			At any time when the Borrower is in default in the payment of any amount of principal due under the Backstop Facility, such amount shall bear interest at 2% above the rate otherwise applicable thereto. Overdue interest, fees and other amounts shall bear interest at 2% above the rate applicable to ABR Loans. Such interest shall be payable on demand.
Yield Protection:			Consistent with the Documentation Principles.
Documentation:			The Backstop Facility shall be negotiated in good faith and shall be governed by a definitive loan agreement (the “Backstop Credit Agreement”) and related agreements and documentation (collectively, the “Backstop Facility Documentation” and the principles set forth in this paragraph, the “Documentation Principles”) to be based on, and no less favorable to the Borrower than, the terms set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement as modified to (i) permit the Transactions and to make the other modifications specifically set forth herein, in the annexes hereto and in the Commitment Letter (as modified by the “flex” provisions of the Fee Letters) and any other modifications as may be mutually agreed, (ii) reflect changes in law and accounting standards since the date of the Existing Credit Agreement (including updates for EU/UK Bail-In, LLC divisions, QFC stay and electronic signature provisions), (iii) reflect the standard agency and administrative provisions of the Backstop Administrative Agent and (iv) include provisions as agreed between the Borrower and the Lead Arrangers to reflect customary market updates since the date of the Existing Credit Agreement.
