WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the New Lenders join the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as Revolving Loan Lenders;

WHEREAS, the Borrower also has requested an increase to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in an aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000 pursuant to Section 2.22(a) of the Credit Agreement (the “June 2024 Incremental Amount”), which June 2024 Incremental Amount shall be provided by the Lenders pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent amend the Credit Agreement in certain respects, and pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to amend the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, the terms and conditions set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Loan Parties, the New Lenders, the other Lenders (including in their capacities as Collateral Agent, Swing Line Lender, and Issuing Bank) and the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1.June 2024 Incremental Amount; Joinder of New Lenders; Reallocations.

Subject to the effectiveness of this New Lender Joinder, including, without limitation, the satisfaction of the conditions of effectiveness set forth in Section 3 below:

(a)    The Borrower has requested that each New Lender act as a Revolving Loan Lender. By its execution hereof, each New Lender so agrees to act as a Revolving Loan Lender. Schedule A to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety pursuant to the corresponding Schedule attached hereto as Annex I. The Revolving Loan Commitment of each Lender, including each New Lender, is set forth in Annex I attached hereto. Each reference herein to a Lender or the Lenders in the Loan Documents shall include each of the New Lenders.

(b)    By its execution hereof, each New Lender is becoming a party to the Credit Agreement as a Revolving Loan Lender. Each New Lender agrees that it constitutes a Revolving Loan Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be bound by the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each New Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has received a copy of this New Lender Joinder and the Credit Agreement, together with copies of financial statements and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this New Lender Joinder and the Credit Agreement and to become a Lender, which analysis and decision has been made independently of and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender. Each New Lender confirms it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, and it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender (including, without limitation, funding obligations in respect of its Revolving Loan Commitments as and when required under the Credit Agreement). U.S. Bank, in its capacity as Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender, hereby consents to the joinder of each New Lender.

(c)    Upon the New Lender Joinder Effective Date, the Borrower shall be deemed to have made all of the prepayments and borrowings required pursuant to Section 2 of the Credit Agreement, so that, after giving effect to such prepayments and borrowings, all Revolving Loans will be held ratably by the Revolving Loan Lenders (including the New Lenders) in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments after giving effect to this New Lender Joinder. It is agreed and acknowledged that, if there are Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit outstanding, the participations of the Revolving Loan Lenders in such Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, shall be automatically adjusted on the New Lender Joinder Effective Date to reflect the Commitment Percentages of all the Revolving Loan Lenders (including the New Lenders) after giving effect to the June 2024 Incremental Amount.
