To Whom It May Concern:

This request for extension (this “Extension Request”) is made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the 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.Extension Notice, Request and Consent.

(a)    Pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, each of the Loan Parties hereby requests that each Lender listed under Part A of Schedule I to the Credit Agreement, effective as of February 8, 2024, extend its respective Commitment Termination Date to February 8, 2029.

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

(c)     Each Lender so indicating on its signature page to this Extension Request (each an “Extending Lender”) agrees to extend the Commitment Termination Date with


respect to its Commitment to February 8, 2029 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 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.

(d)    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 the Agent elect to extend the Commitment Termination Date with respect to its Commitment to February 8, 2029. In such event, the Agent shall be authorized and directed to make the necessary updates to the Register.

B.Effect on Original Terms. The Borrower, the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks 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 the 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.

C.Extension Effective Date. This Extension Request shall become effective as of February 8, 2024; provided, that (i) on or prior to such date, (A) the Borrower and the Agent have executed this Extension Request, (B) Lenders having Commitments equal to more than 50% of the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such date have executed and delivered this Extension Request, and (C) the Borrower shall have paid all accrued fees and expenses of the Agent (including the accrued fees and expenses of counsel to the Agent), and the up-front fees then payable to the Extending Lenders, and (ii) the Borrower shall have satisfied the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(c), (d) and (f) of the Credit Agreement and delivered the certificate described in Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement on such date. This Extension Request shall be deemed to constitute a Loan Document.

D.Execution and Delivery. 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.

E.Headings. The division into sections and other subdivisions of this Extension Request and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Extension Request. Words in the singular include the plural and vice versa and words in one gender include all genders.
