The 2021 revolving credit facility includes a $20.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. Subject to certain exceptions, all amounts under the 2021 Credit Facility will become due on April 27, 2026. The Company has the option to borrow incremental term loans or request an increase in the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility up to an aggregate amount of $150.0 million subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

On January 27, 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction fixing the floating component of the interest rate on $100.0 million of borrowings to 1.39% until January 27, 2025. Additionally, effective September 1, 2022, the Company received an interest rate reduction of 0.05% under the 2021 Credit Facility based on the Company’s achievement of certain sustainability and environmental, social and governance related objectives as provided for in the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2021 Credit Facility includes a number of covenants imposing certain restrictions on the Company’s business, including, among other things, restrictions on the Company’s ability, subject to certain exceptions and baskets, to incur indebtedness, incur liens on its assets, agree to any additional negative pledges, pay dividends or repurchase stock, limit the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or distribute assets, make investments, enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation, liquidate, wind-up or dissolve, or convey any part of its business, assets or property, or acquire the business, property or assets of another person, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, engage in any material line of business substantially different from those engaged on the closing date, modify the terms of indebtedness subordinated to the loans incurred under the 2021 Credit Facility and modify the terms of its organizational documents. The 2021 Credit Facility also includes financial covenants which required the Company to remain below a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.25 times until the fiscal quarter ended September 31, 2022, which stepped down to 4.00 times during the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2022 through and including the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2023 and then further stepping down to 3.75 times beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 times. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio was 1.3 times and 0.8 times, respectively, and the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2021 Credit Facility requires customary mandatory prepayments of the term loan and revolver and cash collateralization of letters of credit, subject to customary exceptions, including 100.0% of the proceeds of debt not permitted by the 2021 Credit Facility, 100.0% of the proceeds of certain dispositions, subject to customary reinvestment rights, where applicable, and 100.0% of insurance or condemnation proceeds, subject to customary reinvestment rights, where applicable. The 2021 Credit Facility also includes customary events of default and related acceleration and termination rights.

The weighted average interest rate on the 2021 Credit Facility for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was 3.5% and 2.1%, respectively.

The Company’s obligations under the 2021 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries, and such obligations are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including the capital stock or other equity interests in those subsidiaries.

2020 Credit Facility— On April 13, 2020, the Company entered into a Unitranche Credit Agreement (the “2020 Credit Facility”) providing for a new $225.0 million credit facility comprised of a $175.0 million term loan and a $50.0 million revolving credit facility and used the proceeds therefrom to repay all amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility (as defined below). The 2020 Credit Facility maturity date was April 2025. Up until October 6, 2020, the term loan and the revolver bore interest at LIBOR plus 5.0% with a 1.0% LIBOR floor or the base rate plus 4.0% and LIBOR plus 3.5% or the base rate plus 2.5%, respectively. Effective October 6, 2020, the Company amended the 2020 Credit Facility to provide for a reduction on the applicable interest rate on the term loan from LIBOR plus 5.0% with a 1.0% LIBOR floor to LIBOR plus 4.5% with a 1.0% LIBOR floor. The revolver interest rate remained unchanged. The revolver was also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.35%. The term loan had quarterly repayments that started on September 30, 2020 of $0.5 million, increasing to $1.1 million on September 30, 2021 and further increasing to $1.6 million on September 30, 2022, with the remaining outstanding principal amount due on the maturity date.

The weighted average interest rate on the 2020 Credit Facility for the year ended December 31, 2020 was 5.8%.

The resulting loss on extinguishment upon repayment of the 2020 Credit Facility amounted to $4.1 million, of which $1.0 million was related to fees paid and $3.1 related to unamortized debt issuance costs. Total loss on extinguishment is recorded in interest expense-net within the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Prior Credit Facility—The Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility prior to the 2020 Credit Facility (the “Prior Credit Facility”), which was paid in full in April 2020 via proceeds from the issuance of the 2020 Credit Facility, consisted of a $50.0 million term loan and a $130.0 million revolving credit facility.

Borrowings under the Prior Credit Facility bore interest at either (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin or (ii) a base rate (equal to the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) Lender A’s prime rate and (c) Eurodollar Rate, which is based on LIBOR, (using a one-month period plus 1.0%), plus the applicable margin, as the Company elects. The applicable margin means a percentage per annum determined in accordance with the following table:

Equipment Line of Credit—In the last quarter of 2022, the Company renewed its $10.0 million equipment leasing facility for the purchase of equipment and related freight, installation costs and taxes paid. Any unused capacity on this equipment leasing facility expires on March 31, 2023. Interest on the line of credit is determined based on a three-year swap rate at the time of funding. Equipment leased through this

line of credit meets the finance lease criteria as per ASC 842 and accordingly is accounted for as finance lease right-of-use assets and a finance lease liabilities (Note 7).
