Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business & Basis of Presentation

The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and other recent filings with the SEC.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. The Company’s critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Fair Value Measurements

At both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $17 million of debt and equity securities that fund the deferred compensation plan and are classified in other non-current assets. The Company also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $17 million at both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which are included in other non-current liabilities. The majority of the debt and equity securities are Level 1 as they trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains/(losses) on the debt and equity securities offset those associated with the corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities.

5. Credit Agreement

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s credit facility had a total commitment amount of $825 million. The credit facility is for general corporate purposes, to meet seasonal working capital requirements and to repurchase its stock. The Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature which allows the Company to increase the amount of the credit facility from $825 million to $1.2 billion, subject to lenders’ approval. The Credit Agreement provides the lenders with a collateral security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets and those of its subsidiaries and requires the Company to comply with, among other things, a maximum net leverage ratio (5.0x) and a minimum interest coverage ratio (3.0x).

The Company amended the Credit Agreement on October 26, 2022. The amendment, among other things, (a) provides relief from the requirement that the net leverage ratio not exceed 3.75x for certain corporate actions including Permitted Capital Distributions for Performance or Taxes (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and certain acquisition activity; (b) increases the permissible net leverage ratio to 5.0x for the three consecutive quarterly reporting periods ending July 1, 2023; (c) increases the commitment fee rate to 50 basis points and the margin applicable to interest rates for all borrowings by an additional 50 basis points, in each case if the net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 4.5x; and (d) replaces the option to borrow at an interest rate based on London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) to one based on a Term SOFR Rate. The Term SOFR Rate equals the sum of (x) the Term SOFR Screen Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the applicable interest period (but in no event less than zero), plus (y) 0.10%, plus (z) the margin based on Sleep Number’s net leverage ratio.

The Company amended the Credit Agreement on July 24, 2023. The amendment, among other things, extends the increased permissible net leverage ratio to 5.0x to include the quarterly reporting period ending September 30, 2023. For the quarterly reporting period ending December 30, 2023, and subsequent quarterly reporting periods, the maximum leverage ratio will be 4.5x.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company pays a variable rate of interest and a commitment fee based on its leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement matures in December 2026. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of September 30, 2023.

The following table summarizes the Company’s borrowings under the credit facility ($ in thousands):


	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Outstanding borrowings	$	488,000		$	459,600
Outstanding letters of credit	$	7,147		$	5,947
Additional borrowing capacity	$	329,853		$	359,453
Weighted-average interest rate	8.2		%	6.7		%

The Company amended the Credit Agreement on November 2, 2023. This Tenth Amendment, among other things, (a) decreases the total aggregate commitment under the Credit Agreement from $825 million to $685 million, (b) decreases the $625 million revolving loan commitment to $485 million, (c) decreases the accordion from $400 million to $342.5 million, (d) increases the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate to 50 basis points when the Net Leverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 (as each is defined in the Credit Agreement), (e) increases the Applicable Margin by 25 to 75 basis points for each respective range of Net Leverage Ratios (as each is defined in the Credit Agreement), (f) deems our Net Leverage Ratio as greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 but less than 4.50 to 1.00 as of the Tenth Amendment effective date to set pricing for the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin until receipt of the compliance certificate for the quarterly reporting period ending December 30, 2023, (g) amends the definition of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to include cash add backs, capped at $30 million for the quarterly reporting periods ending December 30, 2023, March 30, 2024, June 29, 2024, September 28, 2024, and December 28, 2024 and capped at $20 million for each quarterly reporting period ending thereafter, (h) amends the definitions of each of Net Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as each is defined in the Credit Agreement) to include the total operating lease liabilities of borrower, as calculated in accordance with ASC 842 accounting guidance (as of the end of the most recently completed quarterly reporting period) replacing the prior

language of six multiplied by Consolidated Rent Expense (for the most recently completed four quarterly reporting periods), (i) adjusts the permissible maximum Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to (I) 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting periods ending December 30, 2023 and March 30, 2024, (II) 5.50 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting period ending June 29, 2024, (III) 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting period ending September 28, 2024, (IV) 4.80 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting period ending December 28, 2024, and (V) 4.00 to 1.00 for each quarterly reporting period occurring thereafter, (j) adjusts the permissible maximum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to (I) 1.50 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting periods ending December 30, 2023 and March 30, 2024, (II) 1.25 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting period ending June 29, 2024, (III) 1.50 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting periods ending September 28, 2024 and December 28, 2024, and (IV) 3.00 to 1.00 for each quarterly reporting period occurring thereafter, and (k) decreases the requisite Net Leverage Ratio from 3.75 to 1.00 down to 3.00 to 1.00 (under the new applicable definitions) before any Acquisitions (with the exception of the Specified Acquisition) or Restricted Payments (as each is defined in the Credit Agreement) may be made. A fee for the amendment is payable to the approving lenders in an amount equal to 20 basis points multiplied by the sum of such lender's Revolving Credit Commitment and outstanding Term Loans (as each is defined in the Credit Agreement). The foregoing description of the Tenth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Tenth Amendment, which is filed as an exhibit to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

6. Leases

The Company leases its retail, office and manufacturing space under operating leases which, in addition to the minimum lease payments, may require payment of a proportionate share of the real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses. While the Company’s local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given markets, the retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to 10 years. The Company’s office and manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to 15 years. In addition, the Company’s mall-based retail store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Company also leases vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to six years.

The Company’s operating lease costs include facility, vehicle and equipment lease costs, but exclude variable lease costs. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, after consideration of rent escalations and rent holidays. The lease term for purposes of the calculation begins on the earlier of the lease commencement date or the date the Company takes possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that extend beyond the original lease term, the Company estimates straight-line rent expense based on current market conditions. Variable lease costs are recorded when it is probable the cost has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

At September 30, 2023, the Company’s finance right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were not significant.

Lease costs were as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2023		October 1, 2022		September 30, 2023		October 1, 2022

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, otherwise dilutive stock-based awards have been excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect on our net loss per diluted share. Additional potential dilutive stock-based awards totaling 1.1 million and 0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively, and 1.2 million and 0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted net (loss)/income per share calculations because these stock-based awards were anti-dilutive.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. If a material loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed. With respect to currently pending legal proceedings, the Company has not established an estimated range of reasonably possible material losses either because it believes that is has valid defenses to claims asserted against it, the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable it to establish an estimate, or the potential loss is not material. The Company currently does not expect the outcome of pending legal proceedings to have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against the Company could adversely impact its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company expenses legal costs as incurred.

Shareholder Class Action Complaints

On December 14, 2021, purported Sleep Number shareholder, Steamfitters Local 449 Pension & Retirement Security Funds (Steamfitters), filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota (the District of Minnesota) on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021, inclusive, against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach and David Callen, the Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Steamfitters alleges material misstatements and omissions in certain of Sleep Number’s public disclosures during the purported class period, in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, reasonable costs and expenses and equitable/injunctive or other relief as deemed appropriate by the District of Minnesota.

On February 14, 2022, a second purported Sleep Number shareholder, Ricardo Dario Schammas, moved for appointment as lead plaintiff in the action. On March 24, 2022, the District of Minnesota heard argument on Schammas’s motion, and subsequently appointed Steamfitters and Schammas as Co-Lead Plaintiffs (together, Co-Lead Plaintiffs). On July 19, 2022, Co-Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, which, like the predecessor complaint, asserts claims against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach, and David Callen under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Co- Lead Plaintiffs purport to assert these claims on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021. Defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint on September 19, 2022, which motion was heard by the Court on January 17, 2023. On July 10, 2023, the Court issued an order dismissing the Plaintiffs’ consolidated amended complaint with prejudice.

Shareholder Derivative Complaint

On May 12, 2022, Gwendolyn Calla Moore, as the appointed representative of purported Sleep Number shareholder Matthew Gelb, filed a derivative action (the Derivative Action) in the District of Minnesota against Jean-Michel Valette, Shelly Ibach, Barbara Matas, Brenda Lauderback, Daniel Alegre, Deborah Kilpatrick, Julie Howard, Kathleen Nedorostek, Michael Harrison, Stephen Gulis, Jr., David Callen, and Kevin Brown. Moore purports to assert claims on behalf of Sleep Number for breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21(d) of the Exchange Act. Moore’s allegations generally mirror those asserted in the securities complaint described above. The Moore complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount, disgorgement, interest, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ and experts’ fees.

On September 13, 2022, the District of Minnesota entered a joint stipulation staying all proceedings in the Derivative Action pending the outcome of any motion to dismiss the Steamfitters consolidated amended complaint.

Stockholder Demand

On March 25, 2022, Sleep Number received a shareholder litigation demand (the “Demand”), requesting that the Board investigate the allegations in the securities class action complaint and pursue claims on Sleep Number’s behalf based on those allegations. On May 12, 2022, the Board established a special litigation committee to investigate the demand.

On October 5 and October 12, 2022, Sleep Number received two additional shareholder litigation demands, which adopted and incorporated the allegations and requests in the Demand. Both of these additional litigation demands were referred to the special litigation committee.

The special litigation committee has concluded that it would not be in the best interests of Sleep Number and its shareholders to take any of the actions requested in the demands at this time.

13. Subsequent Event

On November 6, 2023, in light of the demand trajectory change in August, the Company initiated business restructuring actions which are expected to reduce 2024 operating expenses by approximately $50 million and accelerate gross margin initiatives, in addition to the approximate $80 million of operating expense reductions expected to be realized in 2023. These actions are broad-based and include a headcount reduction of approximately 10% or 500 team members across all areas of the organization, including in corporate and research and development functions. These actions also include a rationalization of the store portfolio with a planned closure of 40 to 50 stores by the end of 2024, a slower rate of new store openings and remodels, and a reduction of the Company's 2024 capital expenditures. Gross margin improvement actions include value engineering and cost optimization strategies, including driving additional efficiencies through the Company's manufacturing and home delivery network. These business restructuring actions are expected to result in up to $20 million of one-time costs, with an estimated $10 million of the costs being recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Results of Operations

Quarterly and Year-to-Date Results

Quarterly and year-to-date operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including increases or decreases in sales, timing, amount and effectiveness of advertising expenditures, changes in sales return rates or warranty experience, timing of investments in growth initiatives and infrastructure, timing of store openings/closings and related expenses, changes in net sales resulting from changes in the Company’s store base, timing of new product introductions and related expenses, timing of promotional offerings, competitive factors, changes in commodity costs, disruptions in global supplies or third-party service providers, seasonality of retail and bedding industry sales, consumer sentiment and general economic conditions. The extent to which these external factors will impact the Company’s business and its consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Therefore, the historical results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for any future period.

Highlights

Financial highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were as follows:

•Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $473 million decreased from $541 million for the same period one year ago. Demand was impacted by ongoing macro challenges with consumers’ increased focus on price to value as their purchasing power moved to its lowest level on record. The bedding industry remains at recessionary levels with low consumer sentiment.

•The net sales change consisted of a 14% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail, slightly offset by additional sales from 16 net new stores opened in the past 12 months that added 1 percentage point (ppt.) of growth. For additional details, see the components of total net sales change on page 17.

•Sales per store (sales for stores open at least one year, Total Retail, including online, phone and chat) on a trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended September 30, 2023 totaled $2,952, compared with $3,302 for the same period last year.

•Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $5 million, compared with $13 million in the prior-year period. The $7 million decrease in operating income was driven by the lower net sales offset by a 1.3 ppt. increase in the gross profit rate and a $25 million reduction in operating expenses.

•The 1.3 ppt. gross profit rate increase was primarily due to pricing actions taken over the last twelve months and easing commodity costs. See the Gross profit discussion on page 19 for additional details.

•The $25 million reduction in the Company’s operating expenses was due to lower marketing, general and administrative and research and development expenses.

•Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $2 million, compared with net income of $5 million for the same period one year ago. Net loss per diluted share was $0.10, compared with net income per diluted share of $0.22 last year.

•The Company’s adjusted return on invested capital (Adjusted ROIC) was 14.9% on a trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended September 30, 2023, compared with 22.3% for the comparable period one year ago.

•The Company generated $32 million in cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $80 million for the same period one year ago.

•As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $488 million of borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 with Three Months Ended October 1, 2022

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $473 million decreased from $541 million for the same period one year ago. Demand was impacted by ongoing macro challenges with consumers’ increased focus on price to value as their purchasing power moved to its lowest level on record. The bedding industry remains at recessionary levels with low consumer sentiment.

The net sales change consisted primarily of a 14% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail slightly offset by additional sales from 16 net new stores opened in the past 12 months that added 1% percentage points (ppt.) of growth.

The $67.9 million net sales decrease compared with the same period one year ago was comprised of the following: (i) a $61.4 million decrease in Retail comparable net sales; (ii) a $10.4 million decrease from phone, online and other sales; offset by (iii) a $3.9 million increase from net store openings. Total Retail smart bed unit sales decreased 21% compared with the prior year. Total Retail average revenue per smart bed unit increased by 11% to $5,640, compared with $5,083 in the prior-year period. Current year average revenue per smart bed unit benefited from pricing actions taken over the last year and the introduction of our latest next generation smart beds. The prior year average revenue per smart bed unit was negatively impacted by a limited product offering of adjustable bases due to constrained supply of semiconductor chips.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $271 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $32 million, or 11%, compared with $303 million for the same period one year ago. The gross profit rate increased to 57.4% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with 56.1% for the prior-year comparable period.

The current-year gross profit rate increase of 1.3 ppt. was mainly due to: (i) favorable pricing actions taken over the last twelve months that increased the rate by 2.5 ppt.; (ii) improvement in commodity prices and operating efficiencies improved the rate by 1.6 ppt.; partially offset by (iii) product mix of our FlexFit smart adjustable bases, pressured the rate by 1.9 ppt.; (iv) higher returns and warranty costs, primarily related to the returnability of the integrated adjustable base as part of the Climate360 smart bed, impacted the rate by 0.6 ppt; and (v) lower delivered smart bed volume deleveraged the rate by 0.5 ppt. In addition, the gross profit rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of other factors, including changes in manufacturing and supply chain operations and performance-based incentive compensation.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $221 million, or 46.8% of net sales, compared with $240 million, or 44.3% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The current-year sales and marketing expenses rate increase of 2.5 ppt. was primarily due to the deleveraging impact of 13% lower net sales partially offset by a 17% decrease in consumer financing costs as the Company adjusted promotional offers to mitigate increased costs associated with the higher interest rate environment. Media spend was 12% lower year-over-year.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $32 million, or 6.8% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $36 million, or 6.7% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $4.1 million decrease in G&A expenses consisted mainly of: (i) a $3.0 million decrease in company-wide performance-based incentive compensation; (ii) a $0.7 million reduction in employee compensation on lower headcount; (iii) a $0.7 million decrease in other miscellaneous expenses; and (vi) $0.6 million reduction in professional and consulting fees; partially offset by (v) a $0.9 million increase in technology investments. The G&A expenses rate increased by 0.1 ppt. in the current-year period, compared with the same period one year ago due to the items discussed above and the deleveraging impact of lower net sales.

Research and development expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased to $13 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $15 million with the same period last year on lower outside services. While the Company’s consumer innovation pipeline remains robust, it is reprioritizing R&D resources in this highly constrained environment.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net increased to $11 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $6 million for the same period one year ago. The $5 million increase was mainly driven by a higher weighted-average interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Income tax (benefit)/expense

Income tax benefit totaled $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared with expense of $2.0 million last year. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 58.4%, compared with 28.5% for the comparable period last year. The change in effective income tax rate was primarily due to the reduction in projected full-year income before income taxes.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 with Nine Months Ended October 1, 2022

Net sales

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $159 million, or 10%, to $1.46 billion, compared with $1.62 billion for the same period one year ago. Demand was impacted by ongoing macro challenges with consumers’ increased focus on price to value as their purchasing power moved to its lowest level on record. The bedding industry remains at recessionary levels with low consumer sentiment.

The 10% net sales decrease consisted of an 11% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail, partially offset by 1 percentage point (ppt.) of sales growth from net new stores opened in the past 12 months. For additional details, see the components of total net sales change on page 17.

The $159 million net sales decrease compared with the same period one year ago was comprised of the following: (i) a $150 million decrease in Retail comparable net sales; (ii) a $27 million decrease in online, phone and other sales; partially offset by (iii) an $18 million increase resulting from net store openings. Total smart bed unit sales declined 16% compared with the prior year. Average revenue per smart bed unit in Total Retail increased by 7% to $5,822, compared with $5,416 in the prior-year period.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $846 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $85 million, or 9%, compared with $930 million for the same period one year ago. The gross profit rate was 58.0% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 57.5% in the prior-year comparable period.

The current-year gross profit rate increase of 0.5 ppt. was impacted by: (i) favorable pricing actions taken over the past twelve months and the introduction of our next generation smart beds increased the rate by 2.1 ppt.; (ii) improvement in commodity prices and operating efficiencies increased the rate by 0.9 ppt.; partially offset by (iii) product mix of our FlexFit smart adjustable bases, pressured the rate by 1.5 ppt.; (iv) higher returns and warranty costs, primarily related to the returnability of the integrated adjustable base as part of the Climate360 smart bed, decreased the rate by 0.6 ppt; and (v) lower delivered smart bed volume deleveraged the rate by 0.3 ppt. The gross profit rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of other factors, including changes in manufacturing and supply chain operations and performance-based incentive compensation.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $649 million, or 44.5% of net sales, compared with $700 million, or 43.3% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The current-year sales and marketing expenses rate increase of 1.2 ppt. was primarily due to: (i) deleveraging impact of a 10% sales decline; (ii) the additional costs associated with operating 16 net new stores; partially offset by (iii) a 12% decrease in media spend year-over-year resulting in 0.3 ppt. of leverage; and (iv) a 13% decrease in consumer financing costs as the Company adjusted


20 \| 3Q 2023 FORM 10-Q						SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

promotional offers to mitigate increased costs associated with the higher interest rate environment resulting in 0.2 ppt. of leverage.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $111 million, or 7.6% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $116 million, or 7.2% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $5 million decrease in G&A expenses consisted of: (i) a $6.6 million reduction in employee compensation on lower headcount; (ii) a $2.3 million reduction in professional and consulting fees; (iii) a $2.2 million decrease in other miscellaneous expenses; and (iv) a $0.5 million decrease in travel and training expenses; partially offset by (v) a $3.9 million increase in company-wide, performance-based incentive compensation due to the achievement of first half of the fiscal year performance targets in the current year; and (vi) a $2.6 million increase in technology investments. The G&A expenses rate increased by 0.4 ppt. in the current-year period, compared with the same period one year ago due to the deleveraging impact of the 10% net sales decrease partially offset by the net expense reductions discussed above.

Research and development expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased by 9% to $43 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $47 million for the same period one year ago on lower outside services and headcount. While the Company’s consumer innovation pipeline remains robust, it is reprioritizing R&D resources in this highly constrained environment.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net increased to $30 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $11 million for the same period one year ago. The $19 million increase was mainly driven by a higher weighted-average interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense totaled $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with $14 million last year. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased to 21.0%, compared with 24.4% for the comparable period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Managing liquidity and capital resources is an important part of the Company’s commitment to deliver superior shareholder value over time. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities and cash available under its $685 million revolving credit facility, as amended. As of September 30, 2023, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing other than its $7 million in outstanding letters of credit. The cash generated from ongoing operations and cash available under the revolving credit facility are expected to be adequate to maintain operations, and fund anticipated expansion, strategic initiatives and contractual obligations such as lease payments and capital commitments for new retail stores for the foreseeable future.

Changes in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily consisted of $32 million of cash provided by operating activities and an $20 million increase in short-term borrowings, offset by $48 million of cash used to purchase property and equipment and $4 million of cash used to repurchase its common stock (based on settlement, in connection with the vesting of employee restricted stock grants).

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company’s legal proceedings are discussed in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, Legal Proceedings, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risks discussed below and other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including both those that are specific to the Company’s business and others that affect all businesses operating in a global environment. Investors should carefully consider the information in this report under the heading, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and also the information under the heading, Risk Factors, in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The risk factors discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not identify all risks that the Company faces because its business operations could also be affected by additional risk factors that are not presently known to the Company or that it currently considers to be immaterial to its operations.

The Company may not fully realize the expected cost savings and other benefits related to its business restructuring actions and such actions could have unexpected adverse effects on the Company.

The Company’s recently announced business restructuring actions, including headcount reduction, store portfolio rationalization, including slower rate of store openings and remodels, capital expenditures reductions, and other cost saving actions and initiatives, are based on a number of assumptions and expectations which, if achieved, are expected to improve profitability and cash flows from operating activities. However, there can be no assurance the expected results will be achieved. These and any future cost actions may have unexpected negative impacts to the business, including, but not limited to, operations, team members, systems and resources, sales, profitability, cash flows and financial condition.

Exhibit 10.2

Attachment 1

APPENDIX D

INSTALLMENT LOANS

For an initial pilot period, Bank and Retailer agree to add closed-end installment loans as a new financing product under the Program (the “Installment Product”). This Appendix establishes the terms and conditions for the Installment Product offered under the Program.

A. It is the intention of Bank and Retailer that the provisions of the Agreement shall apply to installment loans to the greatest extent possible. References to “Accountholder” in the Agreement are deemed to include individuals who have applied for and been approved for an Installment Account. References to “Account” in the Agreement shall be deemed to include Installment Accounts. References to “Charge Transaction Data” will not include amounts settled under Credit Agreements. Unless otherwise noted herein, references to “Net Program Sales” will include sales on Installment Accounts, including any Initial Payment. In addition, as used herein, “Credit Agreement” means the closed-end credit agreement between Bank and each Accountholder pursuant to which such Accountholder may make a purchase financed on installment credit provided by Bank together with any modifications or amendments which may be made to such agreement, as well as any related notes. “Installment Account” means the legal relationship established by and between an Accountholder and Bank pursuant to a Credit Agreement, together with all Indebtedness owing thereunder from time to time and any current or future guaranties, security, or other credit support therefor.

B. The rights and responsibilities of Bank and Retailer under the Program apply to credit provided through closed-end installment loans, except in any circumstance in which a provision purports to deal solely with issues relating to revolving credit and, in such case, if there is an analogous or comparable right or responsibility with respect to installment credit, then such provision shall be deemed revised to the extent necessary to apply to such corresponding right or responsibility (e.g., Bank’s right to establish credit lines and authorize purchases under the Program shall be deemed revised so as to refer to Bank’s right to assign loan amounts and establish credit terms under the Installment Product). If there is no such analogous or comparable right or responsibility, then such provision applies solely to revolving credit extended under the Program.

C. Retailer and Bank will work together in good faith to integrate the offering of the Installment Product with Retailer’s website and internet sales processes, including allowing applications for the Installment Product to be processed through Retailer’s website and use of the Installment Product for online purchases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, subject to the requirements of applicable law, the parties will mutually agree on the execution of presenting consumers the choice of an Installment Product or any credit-based promotion, including presenting both options at the same time, only one option, or one option following the other option. The targeted start date for the Installment Product is on or around October 17, 2023 (the “Installment Effective Date”).

D. The initial pilot for the Installment Product will continue for a [***] (the “Installment Pilot Term”). Bank and Retailer agree to enter into good faith negotiations no less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the Installment Pilot Term regarding extension of the Installment Product.

E. During the Installment Pilot Term, pricing applicable to the consumer APR and loan term made available under the Installment Product (the “Installment Product Offer”) will [***]. During the Installment Pilot Term, [***]. Retailer acknowledges that the Retailer Fee Percentages for Installment Product Offers may be changed by Bank as allowed in the Agreement.

F. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Bank and Retailer acknowledge that Installment Product transactions will utilize the MasterCard network for settlement, and as such, will be subject to Retailer’s agreement with any processor that processes MasterCard transactions. Any MasterCard fees charged to Retailer to process settlement of an Installment Account are the sole responsibility of Retailer.

Exhibit 10.2

G. If Bank is unable to approve an application for a loan in the amount of the purchase, Bank may approve the application at a lower amount and the consumer will be required to reduce the amount of their purchase. Alternatively, Bank may permit the consumer to use the monthly Installment Product for the purchase, without reducing the purchase amount, on the condition that the consumer makes a separate payment to Bank (the “Initial Payment”) before using the Loan Product. The amount of the Initial Payment will be the difference between the full purchase amount and the approved loan amount. Bank will present the consumer with the option to make the Initial Payment. To make the Initial Payment, the consumer will be required to provide Bank with payment details, such as credit or debit card information.

H. No later than 20 days after the end of each calendar month, Bank will invoice Retailer an amount equal to the previous month’s net sales on Installment Accounts, multiplied by the applicable Retailer Fee Percentage(s). The amount due from Retailer will be processed as a merchant adjustment no later than 30 days after the end of each calendar month. For the purpose of calculating the Installment Retailer Fee Percentage as set forth in this Section H, Bank will calculate the fee on the total purchase amount, including any Initial Payment. For clarity, net sales will be calculated consistent with how Net Program Sales is calculated under the Program.

I. Bank will establish the standard Account terms and credit criteria to be applied with respect to Installment Accounts and may modify such terms and criteria from time to time, including (i) the interest rates/APR applicable to Installment Accounts, as well as all other terms upon which credit will be extended to Accountholders thereunder, and (ii) the credit criteria applicable to the establishment of Installment Accounts and the assignment of loan amounts. Section 5(d) (“Expanded Underwriting”) will not apply to the processing of applications for Installment Accounts.

J. The chargeback provisions of the Agreement will apply to purchases made on Installment Accounts, except for Section 9(a)(ix) with respect to Card-Not-Present Purchase transactions. To the extent a chargeback is initiated by an Accountholder with respect to an Installment Account transaction that is processed through the card network system, the chargeback will be governed by the applicable card network association rules.

K. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Appendix have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreement.

NINTH AMENDMENT TO RETAILER PROGRAM AGREEMENT

(Sleep Number)

THIS NINTH AMENDMENT TO RETAILER PROGRAM AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is

WHEREAS, Bank and Retailer desire to add acceptance of the CareCredit® credit card to the Program, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Retailer acknowledges that (x) Bank may use the Retailer Marks to promote the use of CareCredit Accounts at Retailer locations subject to Retailer’s approval on the use of the Retailer Marks, which approval Retailer will not unreasonably withhold and may be provided by email exchange with Legal@sleepnumber.com, and (y) Bank will not need separate approval to use Retailer’s Marks if Retailer has approved a use that is substantially similar to Bank’s new use. Upon Retailer’s request, Bank will provide Retailer with a detailed accounting of each use of Retailer’s Marks related to the CareCredit Accounts within ten business days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank will not be required to obtain Retailer’s consent to use Retailer’s Marks in a listing of locations where CareCredit Accounts can be used. Retailer may advertise its acceptance of CareCredit Accounts in accordance with the Agreement.

(b) It is the intention of Bank and Retailer that, to the greatest extent practicable, the provisions of the Agreement that relate to the acceptance of Cards and Accounts for purchases of goods and services, the submission of Charge Transaction Data to Bank in connection therewith, the issuance of related credits, the resolution of disputes and the processing of related chargebacks and all provisions relating to the confidentiality, privacy and security of the resulting information, and all related indemnification provisions, will apply to transactions in which a CareCredit Account is presented to Retailer as a tender type.

(c) The rights and responsibilities of Retailer pursuant to the Agreement will apply to CareCredit Accountholders, except in any circumstance in which a provision purports to (or should reasonably be read to) deal solely with the Program and, in such case, such provision will apply solely to the Program.

(d) All purchases made using a CareCredit Account at a Retailer location will be subject to the Retailer Fee applicable to Accounts. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, only with pay, deferred interest and fixed pay credit promotions will be available for use on CareCredit Accounts. All transactions processed via Bank’s closed-end system will automatically deduct any

Exhibit 10.3

Retailer Fees owed to Bank from settlements. Bank will invoice Retailer for Dual Card transactions that are processed via Mastercard as detailed in subsection (e).

(e) Retailer will use reasonable efforts to make such system changes as are necessary to allow for the acceptance of CareCredit Accounts, in accordance with guidance provided by Bank, and the transmission to Bank of the resulting Charge Transaction Data. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that certain CareCredit Accounts will be dual cards (i.e., the CareCredit Accounts will communicate with Bank on Bank’s closed-end system as well as the Mastercard® network and are known as “Dual Cards”). Retailer may submit Dual Card transactions via [***].

(f) Anything in the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the following terms and conditions will apply with respect to CareCredit Accounts: (1) Bank will own and have sole control over all CareCredit Accounts and all information pertaining to CareCredit Accounts and CareCredit Accountholders, and Retailer will not have access to any such information; (2) Bank will have sole control over all CareCredit Account terms and conditions and the credit criteria used to manage CareCredit Accounts; (3) the purchase transaction (and related credit) provisions of the Operating Procedures will apply to CareCredit Accounts, (4) indebtedness resulting from purchases financed on CareCredit Accounts at Retailer locations will be included in the calculation of Net Program Sales for purposes of determining whether Retailer has met certain [***]; (5) billing inserts and statement messages applicable to CareCredit Accounts will not be subject to the terms of the Agreement; and (6) Retailer will not accept any payment from a CareCredit Accountholder on such person’s CareCredit Account. For clarity, Retailer’s option at the end of the Term to purchase Accounts, or arrange for the purchase of Accounts, will not apply to any CareCredit Accounts. [***]

(g) The chargeback provisions of the Agreement will apply to purchases made on CareCredit Accounts, other than the provision related to ensuring applications comply with the Agreement.

(h) The following definitions have the following meanings:

“CareCredit Account” means the legal relationship established by and between a CareCredit Accountholder and Bank pursuant to a credit card agreement connected to Bank’s CareCredit Program, together with all indebtedness owing thereunder from time to time.

“CareCredit Accountholder” means an individual holder of a CareCredit Account.

“CareCredit Program” means Bank’s CareCredit program (which may include functionality that allows credit cards issued under the CareCredit Program to be used on a bankcard network), or any successor program to the CareCredit Program. Credit cards issued under the CareCredit Program will be branded with one or more CareCredit marks.

II. GENERAL

2.4 Further Assurances. The parties hereto agree to execute such other documents and instruments and to do such other and further things as may be necessary or desirable for the

Exhibit 10.3

execution and implementation of this Amendment and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

2.5 Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) during any period when the Borrower shall have failed to timely deliver the Consolidated financial statements pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or (c) hereof, or the Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 5.3(d) hereof, until such time as the appropriate Consolidated financial statements and Compliance Certificate are delivered, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent (which may be retroactively effective to the first day of the calendar month following the date upon which the Administrative Agent should have received the Consolidated financial statements pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or (c) hereof, or pursuant to Section 5.3(d) hereof, the Compliance Certificate), be the highest rate per annum indicated in the above pricing grid regardless of the Net Leverage Ratio at such time, and (ii) in the event that any financial information or certification provided to the Administrative Agent in the Compliance Certificate is shown to be inaccurate (if this Agreement or the Commitment in respect of Revolving Loans is in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Commitment Fee Rate for any period (an “Applicable Commitment Fee Period”) than the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate applied for such Applicable Commitment Fee Period, then (A) the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Commitment Fee Period, (B) the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be determined based on such corrected Compliance Certificate, and (C) the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Commitment Fee Rate for such Applicable Commitment Fee Period. The foregoing Applicable Commitment Fee Rate amounts may be adjusted pursuant to ESG Pricing Provisions as contemplated by Section 2.16. As of the Tenth Amendment Effective Date, the Net Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 but less than 4.50 to 1.00.

Greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.50 to 1.00	200.00	100.00
Greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 but less than 2.00 to 1.00	175.00	75.00
Less than 1.50 to 1.00	150.00	50.00

Changes to the Applicable Margin shall be effective on the first day of each calendar month following the date upon which the Administrative Agent should have received, pursuant to Section 5.3(d) hereof, the Compliance Certificate. The above pricing matrix does not modify or waive, in any respect, the requirements of Section 5.7 hereof, the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to charge the Default Rate, or the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Articles VIII and IX hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) during any period when the Borrower shall have failed to timely deliver the Consolidated financial statements pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or (c) hereof, or the Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 5.3(d) hereof, until such time as the appropriate Consolidated financial statements and Compliance Certificate are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent (which may be retroactively effective to the first day of the calendar month following the date upon which the Administrative Agent should have received the Consolidated financial statements pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or (c) hereof, or pursuant to Section 5.3(d) hereof, the Compliance Certificate), be the highest rate per annum indicated in the above pricing grid for Loans of that type, regardless of the Net Leverage Ratio at such time, and (ii) in the event that any financial information or certification provided to the Administrative Agent in the Compliance Certificate is shown to be inaccurate (if this Agreement or the Commitment is in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Margin Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Margin Period, then (A) the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Margin Period, (B) the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on such corrected Compliance Certificate, and (C) the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Margin Period. The foregoing Applicable Margin amounts may be adjusted pursuant to ESG Pricing Provisions as contemplated by Section 2.16. As of the Tenth Amendment Effective Date, the Net Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 but less than 4.50 to 1.00. Unless increased

pursuant to Section 2.3(c), the Applicable Margin shall remain at that level until the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, pursuant to Section 5.3(d), its Compliance Certificate for the Fiscal Year ending December 30, 2023.

The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to Term SOFR or other rates in the definition of Term SOFR Rate or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any Benchmark Replacement), including without limitation, whether any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate (including any Benchmark Replacement), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.5, will have the same value as, or be economically equivalent to, the Term SOFR Rate. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of Base Rate, Term SOFR, the Term SOFR Rate, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Section 1.6. Additional Eligible Currencies; Daily Simple SOFR. The Companies may from time to time request that Revolving Loans be made in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Eligible Currency”; provided that such requested currency otherwise meets the requirements set forth in such definition. Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender thereof) not later than 11:00 a.m. twenty Business Days prior to the date the applicable Company desires to receive a Loan denominated in such currency. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m. ten Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to making Revolving Loans in such requested currency. Any failure by a Lender to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Lender to make Revolving Loans in such requested currency. If all the Lenders consent to making Revolving Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Companies and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Agreed Currency hereunder (a “Future Agreed Currency”). Interest on extensions of credit denominated in such Future Agreed Currencies may require interest rate determinations and calculations, including determinations of credit spread adjustments, as contemplated by the definition of Other Interest Rate or which are not included in this Agreement as of the Eighth Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, prior to any such Future Agreed Currency becoming available hereunder, the Companies and the Lenders extending Loans in such Future Agreed Currencies shall amend this Agreement, on terms and conditions acceptable to all of them, as needed in order to include such interest rate mechanics. Daily Simple SOFR is included herein solely as an alternative Benchmark when Term SOFR is unavailable. So long as Term SOFR is available as a Benchmark, no Loan shall be made hereunder that accrues interest at Daily Simple SOFR. Certain Eurocurrency Loans (as defined herein prior to the Eighth Amendment Effective Date) shall remain outstanding on and after the Eighth Amendment Effective Date until such times as the existing Interest Periods therefor expire (or otherwise terminate early to the extent required hereunder). Thereafter, such Loans shall be fully repaid or shall accrue interest using one of the interest rates available hereunder on and after the Eighth Amendment Effective Date.

ARTICLE II

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

Section 2.1. Amount and Nature of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders, during the Commitment Period and to the extent hereinafter provided, shall make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, participate in Swing Loans made by the Swing Line Lender to the Borrower, and issue or participate in Letters of Credit at the request of the Borrower, in such aggregate amount as the Borrower shall request pursuant to the Commitment in respect of Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit; provided that in no event shall (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under this Agreement be in excess of the Maximum Revolving Amount and (ii) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceed the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount.

(b) Each Lender, for itself and not one for any other, agrees to make Revolving Loans, participate in Swing Loans, and issue or participate in Letters of Credit, during the Commitment Period, on such basis that, immediately after the completion of any borrowing by the Borrower or the issuance of a Letter of Credit:

(i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans made by such Lender (other than Swing Loans made by the Swing Line Lender), when combined with such Lender’s pro rata share, if any, of the Letter of Credit Exposure and the Swing Line Exposure, shall not be in excess of the Maximum Revolving Amount for such Lender; and

(ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans (other than Swing Loans) made by such Lender shall represent that percentage of the aggregate principal amount then outstanding on all Revolving Loans (other than Swing Loans) that shall be such Lender’s Commitment Percentage.

Each borrowing (other than Swing Loans which shall be risk participated on a pro rata basis) from the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders.

(c) Loans other than Term Loans may be made as Revolving Loans as described in Section 2.2(a) hereof, and as Swing Loans as described in Section 2.2(c) hereof, and Letters of Credit may be issued in accordance with Section 2.2(b) hereof.

(d) On the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, the Term Loan Lenders shall make Term Loans to the Borrower in the amount of their respective Term Loan Commitments. The Term Loans shall be made in U.S. Dollars. Giving effect to any principal prepayments then previously applied to the Term Loans, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date. Once repaid, no Term Loan may be reborrowed. The Borrower shall make a scheduled principal payment in respect of the Term Loans equal to $2,500,000 on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date occurring on and after March 31, 2024.

Section 2.2. Revolving Credit Commitment.

(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Commitment Period, the Lenders shall make a Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans to the Borrower in such amount or amounts as the Borrower, through an Authorized Officer, may from time to time request, but not exceeding in aggregate principal amount at any time

outstanding hereunder the Revolving Credit Commitment, when such Revolving Loans are combined with the Letter of Credit Exposure and the Swing Line Exposure. The Borrower shall have the option, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to borrow Revolving Loans, maturing on the last day of the Commitment Period, by means of any combination of Base Rate Loans, Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loans, RFR Loans or Other Interest Rate Loans. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower shall be entitled under this Section 2.2(a) to borrow Revolving Loans, repay the same in whole or in part and re-borrow Revolving Loans hereunder at any time and from time to time during the Commitment Period. The aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans shall be payable in full on the last day of the Commitment Period. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Loans made in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars shall be repaid in the applicable Agreed Currency. Interest on such Loans also shall be paid in the applicable Agreed Currency.

(b) Letters of Credit.

(i) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Commitment Period, the Issuing Lender shall, in its own name, on behalf of the Lenders, issue such Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower or a Guarantor of Payment, as the Borrower may from time to time request. All Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, and all reimbursement amounts in respect of Letters of Credit, as well as fees and expenses owing in respect of Letters of Credit, shall be paid in Dollars. The Borrower shall not request any Letter of Credit (and the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit) if, after giving effect thereto, (A) the Letter of Credit Exposure would exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment, or (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. The issuance of each Letter of Credit shall confer upon each Lender the benefits and liabilities of a participation consisting of an undivided pro rata interest in the Letter of Credit to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, the letters of credit issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and identified on Schedule 2.2(b) (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to be “Letters of Credit” for all purposes of the Loan Documents.

(ii) Request for Letter of Credit. Each request for a Letter of Credit shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent (and to the Issuing Lender, if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent) by an Authorized Officer not later than 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time) three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed issuance of the Letter of Credit. Each such request shall be in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and the Issuing Lender, if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent) and shall specify the face amount thereof, whether such Letter of Credit is a commercial documentary or a standby Letter of Credit, the account party, the beneficiary, the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the expiry date thereof, and the nature of the transaction or obligation to be supported thereby. Concurrently with each such request, the Borrower, and any Guarantor of Payment for whose account the Letter of Credit is to be issued, shall execute and deliver to the Issuing Lender an appropriate application and agreement, being in the standard form of the Issuing Lender for such letters of credit, as amended to conform to the provisions of this Agreement if required by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall give the Issuing Lender and each Lender notice of each such request for a Letter of Credit.

(iii) Commercial Documentary Letters of Credit Fees. With respect to each Letter of Credit that shall be a commercial documentary letter of credit and the drafts thereunder, whether issued for the account of the Borrower or a Guarantor of Payment, the Borrower agrees to (A) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, a non-refundable commission based upon the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit, which shall be paid quarterly in arrears, on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate sum of the Letter of Credit Fee for such Letter of Credit for each day of

such quarter; (B) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the sole benefit of the Issuing Lender, a Letter of Credit fee, which shall be paid on the date that such Letter of Credit is issued, amended or renewed, at the rate of one-fourth percent (1/4%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit; and (C) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the sole benefit of the Issuing Lender, such other issuance, amendment, renewal, negotiation, draw, acceptance, facsimile, courier, postage and similar transactional fees as are customarily charged by the Issuing Lender in respect of the issuance and administration of similar letters of credit under its fee schedule as in effect from time to time.

(iv) Standby Letters of Credit Fees. With respect to each Letter of Credit that shall be a standby letter of credit and the drafts thereunder, if any, whether issued for the account of the Borrower or a Guarantor of Payment, the Borrower agrees to (A) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, a non-refundable commission based upon the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit, which shall be paid quarterly in arrears, on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate sum of the Letter of Credit Fee for such Letter of Credit for each day of such quarter; (B) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the sole benefit of the Issuing Lender, an additional Letter of Credit fee, which shall be paid on each date that such Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or renewed at the rate of one-fourth percent (1/4%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit; and (C) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the sole benefit of the Issuing Lender, such other issuance, amendment, renewal, negotiation, draw, acceptance, facsimile, courier, postage and similar transactional fees as are customarily charged by the Issuing Lender in respect of the issuance and administration of similar letters of credit under its fee schedule as in effect from time to time.

(v) Refunding of Letters of Credit with Revolving Loans. Whenever a Letter of Credit shall be drawn, the Borrower shall promptly reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount drawn (with prompt notice of each such reimbursement to be provided by the applicable Issuing Lender to the Administrative Agent if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent). In the event that the amount drawn shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower within one Business Day of the drawing of such Letter of Credit, at the sole option of the Administrative Agent (and the Issuing Lender, if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2(a) and 2.5 hereof (other than the requirement set forth in Section 2.5(d) hereof), in the amount drawn. Such Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes (or, if a Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, by the records of the Administrative Agent and such Lender). Each Lender agrees to make a Revolving Loan on the date of such notice, subject to no conditions precedent whatsoever. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.2(a) hereof when required by this Section 2.2(b)(v) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that its payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, of the proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to apply the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(v) to reimburse, in full (other than the Issuing Lender’s pro rata share of such borrowing), the Issuing Lender for the amount drawn on such Letter of Credit. Each such Revolving Loan shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan unless otherwise requested by and available to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records relating to its Revolving Credit Note (or, if such Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, its records relating to Revolving Loans) such Lender’s pro rata share of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters of Credit.

(vi) Participation in Letters of Credit. If, for any reason, the Administrative Agent (and the Issuing Lender if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent) shall be unable to or, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, it shall be impracticable to, convert any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit to a Revolving Loan pursuant to the preceding subsection, the Administrative Agent (and the Issuing Lender if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right to request that each Lender fund a participation in the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof (by facsimile or email (confirmed by telephone) or telephone (confirmed in writing)). Upon such notice, but without further action, the Issuing Lender hereby agrees to grant to each Lender, and each Lender hereby agrees to acquire from the Issuing Lender, an undivided participation interest in the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s ratable share of the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit (determined in accordance with such Lender’s Commitment Percentage). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in the amount due under any Letter of Credit that is drawn but not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(vi) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this Section 2.2(b)(vi) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5 hereof with respect to Revolving Loans. Each Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records such Lender’s pro rata share of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters of Credit.

(vii) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If the Borrower so requests, a Letter of Credit shall have an automatic renewal provision; provided that any Letter of Credit that has an automatic renewal provision must permit the Administrative Agent (or the applicable Issuing Lender if the Issuing Lender is a Lender other than the Administrative Agent) to prevent any such renewal by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof at least thirty (30) days prior to the renewal date of such Letter of Credit (or such other period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender). Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Administrative Agent (and the Issuing Lender) to permit at any time the renewal of such Letter of Credit to an expiry date not later than one year after the last day of the Commitment Period.

(viii) Letters of Credit Outstanding Beyond the Commitment Period. If any Letter of Credit is outstanding upon the termination of the Commitment, then, upon such termination, the Borrower shall deposit with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit, cash denominated in Dollars in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the undrawn amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit, which cash shall be free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties. The cash shall be deposited in an escrow account at a financial institution designated by the Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall be entitled to withdraw amounts necessary to reimburse the Issuing Lender for payments to be made under the Letters of Credit and any fees and expenses associated with such Letters of Credit, or incurred pursuant to the reimbursement agreements with respect to such Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall also execute such documentation as the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender may reasonably require in connection with the survival of the Letters of Credit beyond the Commitment or this Agreement. After expiration of

all undrawn Letters of Credit, the remainder of the cash, if any, shall promptly be returned to the Borrower.

(i) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Commitment Period, the Swing Line Lender may, but shall not be required to, make a Swing Loan or Swing Loans to the Borrower in such amount or amounts as the Borrower, through an Authorized Officer, may from time to time request and to which the Swing Line Lender may agree; provided that the Borrower shall not request any Swing Loan if, after giving effect thereto, (A) the Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, or (B) the Swing Line Exposure would exceed the Swing Line Commitment. Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan shall be made in Dollars. All amounts due and payable in respect of Swing Loans (including principal, interest and fees) shall be paid in Dollars.

(ii) Refunding of Swing Loans. If the Swing Line Lender so elects, by giving notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, the Borrower agrees that the Swing Line Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the then outstanding Swing Loans be refinanced as a Revolving Loan. Such Revolving Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan unless otherwise requested by and available to the Borrower hereunder. Upon receipt of such notice by the Borrower and the Lenders, the Borrower shall be deemed, on such day, to have requested a Revolving Loan in the principal amount of such Swing Loan in accordance with Sections 2.2(a) and 2.5 hereof (other than the requirement set forth in Section 2.5(d) hereof). Such Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes (or, if a Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, by the records of the Administrative Agent and such Lender). Each Lender agrees to make a Revolving Loan on the date of such notice, subject to no conditions precedent whatsoever. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that such Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.2(a) hereof when required by this Section 2.2(c)(ii) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that its payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, of the proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to apply the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(ii) to repay in full such Swing Loan. Each Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records relating to its Revolving Credit Note (or, if such Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, its records relating to Revolving Loans) such Lender’s pro rata share of the amounts paid to refund such Swing Loan.

(iii) Participation in Swing Loans. If, for any reason, the Swing Line Lender is unable to or, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, it is impracticable to, convert any Swing Loan to a Revolving Loan pursuant to the preceding Section 2.2(c)(ii), then on any day that a Swing Loan is outstanding (whether before or after the maturity thereof), the Administrative Agent shall have the right to request that each Lender fund a participation in such Swing Loan, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof (by facsimile or email (confirmed by telephone) or telephone (confirmed in writing)). Upon such notice, but without further action, the Swing Line Lender hereby agrees to grant to each Lender, and each Lender hereby agrees to acquire from the Swing Line Lender, an undivided participation interest in the right to share in the payment of such Swing Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of such Swing Loan. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative

Agent, for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender, such Lender’s ratable share of such Swing Loan (determined in accordance with such Lender’s Commitment Percentage). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swing Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(iii) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this Section 2.2(c)(iii) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5 hereof with respect to Revolving Loans to be made by such Lender.

Section 2.3. Interest.

(a) Loans.

(i) Base Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of a Loan that is a Base Rate Loan outstanding from time to time from the date thereof until paid at the Base Rate from time to time in effect. Interest on such Base Rate Loan shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date thereafter and at the maturity thereof.

(ii) Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loans and Certain Other Interest Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan that is a Term SOFR Loan, a EURIBOR Loan, or an Other Interest Loan that accrues interest using Interest Period mechanics, in each case as may be outstanding from time to time, with the interest rate to be fixed in advance on the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto through the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (but subject to changes in the Applicable Margin), at the Term SOFR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate or the relevant Other Interest Rate, as applicable. Interest on such Loan shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date with respect to an Interest Period (provided that, if an Interest Period shall exceed three months, the interest must also be paid every three months, commencing three months from the beginning of such Interest Period).

(iii) RFR Loans and certain Other Interest Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of a Loan that is an RFR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan that accrues interest using Payment Date mechanics, in each case as may be outstanding from time to time from the date thereof until paid at the RFR Rate or the Other Interest Rate from time to time in effect. Interest on each RFR Loan and each Other Interest Rate Loan shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at the maturity thereof.

(b) Swing Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent, for the sole benefit of the Swing Line Lender (and any Lender that shall have funded a participation in such Swing Loan), on the unpaid principal amount of each Swing Loan outstanding from time to time from the date thereof until paid at either (i) the Base Rate from time to time in effect or (ii) the Term SOFR Rate (using a one-month Interest Period, resetting daily), in each case as selected by the Borrower (with such election being made by the Borrower together with the request for such Swing Loan). Interest on each Swing Loan shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date and on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan shall bear interest for a minimum of one day.

(c) Default Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (i) the principal of each Loan and the unpaid interest thereon shall bear

interest, until paid, at the Default Rate, (ii) the fee for the aggregate undrawn amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall be increased by two percent (2%) in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto, and (iii) in the case of any other amount not paid when due from the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided that, during an Event of Default under Section 8.1 or 8.11 hereof, the applicable Default Rate shall apply without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and shall no longer apply when no Event of Default is continuing.

(d) Limitation on Interest. In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowable by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations.

Section 2.4. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Agreed Currency for such Loan and, as applicable, the Interest Period or Interest Payment Date with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the original stated amount of each Letter of Credit and the amount of obligations in respect thereof outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Any Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) may request that its Loans be evidenced by a Note. Notes related to Revolving Loans shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto, Notes related to Term Loans shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, and Notes related to Swing Loans shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. The Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note or Notes in favor of such Lender as supplied by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes in favor of the payee named therein, except to the extent that

any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in clauses (b) (i) and (ii) above.

Section 2.5. Notice of Loans and Credit Events; Funding of Loans.

(a) Notice of Loans and Credit Events. The Borrower, through an Authorized Officer, shall provide to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Loan prior to (i) 12:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the proposed date of borrowing of, or conversion of a Loan to, a Base Rate Loan, (ii) 12:00 P.M. (Eastern time) three Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing of, continuation of, or conversion of a Loan to, a Term SOFR Loan or a EURIBOR Loan, (iii) 12:00 P.M. (Eastern time) five Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing of, or conversion of a Loan to, an RFR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan, and (iv) 4:30 P.M. (Eastern time) on the proposed date of borrowing of a Swing Loan (or such later time as agreed to from time to time by the Swing Line Lender). An Authorized Officer of the Borrower may verbally request a Loan, so long as a Notice of Loan is received by the end of the same Business Day, and, if the Administrative Agent or any Lender provides funds or initiates funding based upon such verbal request, the Borrower shall bear the risk with respect to any information regarding such funding that is later determined to have been incorrect. The Borrower shall comply with the notice provisions set forth in Section 2.2(b) hereof with respect to Letters of Credit.

(b) Funding of Loans. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the date, amount, Agreed Currency, and Interest Period (if applicable) promptly upon the receipt of a Notice of Loan (other than for a Swing Loan, or a Revolving Loan to be funded as a Swing Loan), and, in any event, by 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the date such Notice of Loan is received. On the date that the Credit Event set forth in such Notice of Loan is to occur, each such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, not later than 3:00 P.M. (Eastern time), the amount in the applicable Agreed Currency, in federal or other immediately available funds, required of it. If the Administrative Agent shall elect to advance the proceeds of such Loan prior to receiving funds from such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon prior notice to the Borrower, to debit any account of the Borrower or otherwise receive such amount from the Borrower, promptly after demand, in the event that such Lender shall fail to reimburse the Administrative Agent in accordance with this subsection (b). The Administrative Agent shall also have the right to receive interest from such Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate in the event that such Lender shall fail to provide its portion of the Loan on the date requested and the Administrative Agent shall elect to provide such funds.

(i) At the request of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, subject to the notice and other provisions of this Agreement, the Lenders shall convert a Base Rate Loan to another Type of Loan at any time, shall convert an RFR Loan to another Type of Loan at any time, and shall convert a Term SOFR Loan or a EURIBOR Loan to another Type of Loan on any Interest Adjustment Date applicable thereto; provided, that (x) any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be converted into a Loan denominated in Dollars (using the then applicable Exchange Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent) prior to such Loan becoming a Base Rate Loan and (y) the currency of any Loan shall be converted, as necessary (using the then applicable Exchange Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent) to correspond with the requested Loan (by way of example, a Loan denominated in Euro would be converted to Sterling to the extent the Borrower desires an RFR Loan). Swing Loans may be converted by the Swing Line Lender to Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(ii) hereof.

(ii) At the request of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, subject to the notice and other provisions of this Agreement, the Lenders shall continue one or more Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loans, or, as the case may be, Other Interest Rate Loans as of the end of the applicable Interest Period as a new Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loan or Other Interest Rate Loan with a new Interest Period; provided, that any such Loan shall be continued in the same Agreed Currency in which it was initially made. RFR Loans and Other Interest Rate Loans subject to Payment Date interest rate mechanics shall continue as RFR Loans or Other Interest Rate Loans unless and until such RFR Loans or Other Interest Rate Loans are converted into different Types of Loans or are repaid, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or roll over all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

(d) Minimum Amount for Loans. Each request for:

(i) a Base Rate Loan shall be in an amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), increased by increments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000);

(ii) a Term SOFR Loan, a EURIBOR Loan or an RFR Loan shall be in an amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), increased by increments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount thereof, as applicable); and

(iii) a Swing Loan shall be in an amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or such lower amount as may be agreed by the Swing Line Lender.

(e) Interest Periods and Interest Payment Dates. The Borrower shall not request that Loans subject to Interest Periods be outstanding for more than fifteen (15) different Interest Periods (and each outstanding RFR Loan and Other Interest Rate Loan using Payment Date interest mechanics shall constitute use of one Interest Period for purposes hereof) at the same time.

(f) Additional Provisions with Respect to Affected Lenders.

(i) Advancing of Non Pro-Rata Revolving Loans. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Borrower requests a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.5(a) hereof (and all conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.1 hereof are met) at a time when one or more Lenders are Affected Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to require (and, at the request of the Borrower, shall require) the non-Affected Lenders to honor such request by making a non pro-rata Revolving Loan to the Borrower; provided that in no event shall the Lender Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceed the Maximum Revolving Amount of such Lender after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Loan.

(ii) Reallocation of Participations; Cash Collateralization and Repayment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes an Affected Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer an Affected Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) all or any part of such Affected Lender’s participation

interest in Letters of Credit (pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(vi) hereof) and Swing Loans (pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(iii) hereof) shall be reallocated among the non-Affected Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (calculated as if such Affected Lender did not have a Commitment Percentage of the Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Lender Revolving Credit Exposure of any non-Affected Lender to exceed the Maximum Revolving Amount of such non-Affected Lender; provided that no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against an Affected Lender arising from that Lender having become an Affected Lender, including any claim of a non-Affected Lender as a result of such non-Affected Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation, and (B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent (or the Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender), and without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (1) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s exposure with respect to such Affected Lender’s Commitment Percentage of outstanding Swing Loans (other than Swing Loans as to which such Affected Lender’s participation obligation has been reallocated to other Lenders) and (2) second, cash collateralize the Issuing Lender’s exposure with respect to issued Letters of Credit (other than those Letter of Credit obligations as to which such Affected Lender’s participation obligation has been reallocated to other Lenders or cash collateralized in accordance with the terms hereof).

(iii) New Swing Loans and Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is an Affected Lender, (A) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no exposure with respect to such Affected Lender’s Commitment Percentage of outstanding Swing Loans (other than Swing Loans as to which such Affected Lender’s participation obligation has been reallocated to other Lenders) after giving effect to such Swing Loan, and (B) the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no exposure with respect to issued Letters of Credit (other than those Letter of Credit obligations as to which such Affected Lender’s participation obligation has been reallocated to other Lenders or cash collateralized in accordance with the terms hereof) after giving effect thereto.

(g) Determination of Dollar Amounts. The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Amount of: (a) each Loan as of the date three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which such Loan is to be made or, if applicable, date of conversion/continuation of such Loan, and (b) all outstanding Loans on and as of the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on any other Business Day elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion or upon instruction by the Required Lenders. Each day upon or as of which the Administrative Agent determines Dollar Amounts as described in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to each Loan for which a Dollar Amount is determined on or as of such day. If at any time the Dollar Amount of (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans exceeds the Total Commitment Amount (excluding the Term Loans), or (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal Dollar Amount of all Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceeds the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount, the Borrower shall immediately make a payment on the Loans sufficient to eliminate such excess.

Section 2.6. Payment on Loans and Other Obligations.

(a) Payments Generally. Each payment made hereunder by a Credit Party shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding (except as required or permitted under Section 3.2 hereof) or reduction whatsoever.

(b) Payments from Borrower. All payments (including prepayments) to the Administrative Agent of the principal of or interest on each Loan or other payment, including but

not limited to principal, interest, fees or any other amount owed by the Borrower under this Agreement, shall be made in Dollars unless otherwise specified herein. All payments described in this subsection (b) shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent, at the address of the Administrative Agent for notices referred to in Section 11.4 hereof for the account of the Lenders (or the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as appropriate) not later than 3:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the due date thereof with respect to payments other than for application to Swing Loans, and not later than 4:30 P.M. (Eastern time) on the due date thereof with respect to payments for application to Swing Loans, in each case in immediately available funds. Any such payments received by the Administrative Agent (or the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender) after the time required above shall be deemed to have been made and received on the next Business Day.

(c) Payments to Lenders. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to the Lenders (except with respect to Swing Loans, which shall be paid to the Swing Line Lender and any Lender that has funded a participation in the Swing Loans, or, with respect to Letters of Credit, certain of which payments shall be paid to the Issuing Lender) their respective ratable shares, if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and commitment and other fees received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be delivered to the Lenders in immediately available funds. Each Lender shall record any principal, interest or other payment, the principal amounts of Loans and Letters of Credit, all prepayments and the applicable dates, including Interest Periods and Agreed Currencies, with respect to the Loans made, and payments received by such Lender, by such method as such Lender may generally employ; provided that failure to make any such entry shall in no way detract from the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any Note. The aggregate unpaid amount of Loans, types of Loans, Interest Periods, Agreed Currencies, and similar information with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit set forth on the records of the Administrative Agent shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence with respect to such information, including the amounts of principal, interest and fees owing to each Lender.

(d) Timing of Payments. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder, including, without limitation, any payment to be made on any Loan, shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall in each case be included in the computation of the interest payable on such Loan; provided that, with respect to a Term SOFR Loan, a EURIBOR Loan, or an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Period interest mechanics, if the next Business Day shall fall in the succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the preceding Business Day and the relevant Interest Period shall be adjusted accordingly.

(e) Affected Lenders; Application of Certain Cash Collateral. To the extent that the Administrative Agent receives any payments or other amounts for the account of an Affected Lender, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender shall be deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent use such payment or other amount (or any portion thereof, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent) first, to cash collateralize its unfunded risk participation in Swing Loans and the Letters of Credit, and, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, second, to fulfill its obligations to make Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any cash collateral provided for in this Agreement in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the applicable Affected Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Affected Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(f) Payment of Non Pro-Rata Loans and Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts hereunder may first be applied to such Loans, Letters of Credit and other obligations that were not advanced or participated pro rata hereunder.

(g) Currency Unavailability. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Loan in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency, or any other event occurs, in each case with the result that the type of currency in which the Loan was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or would no longer be an Eligible Currency or the Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrower take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

Section 2.7. Prepayment.

(a) Right to Prepay.

(i) The Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time to prepay, on a pro rata basis for all of the Lenders (except with respect to Swing Loans, which shall be paid to the Swing Line Lender and any Lender that has funded a participation in such Swing Loan), all or any part of the principal amount of the Revolving Loans or Term Loans then outstanding, as applicable, as designated by the Borrower. Such payment shall include interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment and any amount payable under Article III hereof with respect to the amount being prepaid. Prepayments of Base Rate Loans shall be without any premium or penalty. Unless otherwise specified by the Borrower prior to the time of making any prepayment in respect of Term Loans, any such prepayment shall be applied to scheduled installments in inverse order of maturity.

(ii) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to prepay, for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender (and any Lender that has funded a participation in such Swing Loan), all or any part of the principal amount of the Swing Loans then outstanding, as designated by the Borrower, plus interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.7 or otherwise to the contrary, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, in order to prepay Revolving Loans made to the Borrower that were not advanced pro rata by all of the Lenders, any prepayment of a Revolving Loan shall first be applied to Revolving Loans made by the Lenders during any period in which a Defaulting Lender shall exist.

(b) Notice of Prepayment. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice of prepayment of (i) a Base Rate Loan or Swing Loan by no later than 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time) on the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made, (ii) a Term SOFR Loan or EURIBOR Loan by no later than 1:00 P.M. (Eastern time) three Business Days before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made or (iii) an RFR Loan or Other Interest Rate Loan by no later than 1:00 P.M. (Eastern time) three Business Days before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made.

(c) Minimum Amount for Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loans, Other Interest Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans. Each prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan, EURIBOR Loan, Other Interest Rate Loan or RFR Loan shall be in the principal amount of not less than the lesser of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount thereof, if applicable), or the principal amount of such Loan, or, with respect to a Swing Loan, the principal balance of such Swing Loan, except in the case of a mandatory payment pursuant to Section 2.11 or Article III hereof.

Section 2.8. Commitment and Other Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, as a consideration for the Revolving Credit Commitment, a commitment fee, for each day from the Closing Date through the last day of the Commitment Period, in an amount equal to (i) (A) the Maximum Revolving Amount at the end of such day, minus (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure (exclusive of the Swing Line Exposure) at the end of such day, multiplied by (ii) the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate in effect on such day divided by three hundred sixty (360). The commitment fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears, commencing on March 31, 2018 and continuing on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date thereafter, and on the last day of the Commitment Period.

(b) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay the fees set forth in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter.

(c) Authorization to Debit Account. The Borrower hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent has the right to debit from any Deposit Account of the Borrower held by the Administrative Agent, amounts owing and then due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents for payment of fees, expenses and other amounts incurred or owing, and in each case, then due, in connection therewith.

Section 2.9. Modifications to Commitment.

(a) Optional Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitment. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time permanently reduce in whole or ratably in part the Maximum Revolving Amount to an amount not less than the then existing Revolving Credit Exposure, by giving the Administrative Agent not fewer than three Business Days’ written notice of such reduction, provided that any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount, for all of the Lenders, of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), increased in increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the date of each such reduction and such Lender’s proportionate share thereof. After each such partial reduction, the commitment fees payable hereunder shall be calculated upon the Maximum Revolving Amount as so reduced. If the Borrower reduces in whole the Revolving Credit Commitment, on the effective date of such reduction (the Borrower having prepaid in full the unpaid principal balance, if any, of the Revolving Loans, together with all interest (if any) and commitment and other fees accrued and unpaid with respect thereto, and provided that no Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing Line Exposure shall exist), all of the Revolving Credit Notes shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent marked “Canceled” and the Administrative Agent shall redeliver such Revolving Credit Notes to the Borrower. Any partial reduction in the Maximum Revolving Amount shall be effective during the remainder of the Commitment Period. Upon each decrease of the Maximum Revolving Amount, the Total Commitment Amount shall be decreased by the same amount.

(b) Increase in Commitment.

(i) At any time during the Commitment Increase Period, the Borrower may request that the Administrative Agent increase the Total Commitment Amount by increasing the Maximum Revolving Amount; provided that the aggregate amount of all such increases made pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) shall not exceed Three Hundred Forty Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($342,500,000), the entire amount of which is available as of the Tenth Amendment Effective Date. Each such request for an increase shall be in an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), and may be made by either (A) increasing, for one or more Lenders, with their prior written consent, their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, or (B) including one or more Additional Lenders, each with a new commitment under the Revolving Credit Commitment, as a party to this Agreement (each an “Additional Commitment” and, collectively, the “Additional Commitments”).

(ii) During the Commitment Increase Period, all of the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may permit one or more Additional Commitments upon satisfaction of the following requirements: (A) each Additional Lender, if any, shall execute an Additional Lender Assumption Agreement, (B) each Additional Commitment from an Additional Lender, if any, shall be in an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), (C) the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Borrower and each Lender a revised Schedule 1 to this Agreement, including revised Commitment Percentages for each of the Lenders, if appropriate, at least three Business Days prior to the date of the effectiveness of such Additional Commitments (each an “Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date”), and (D) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders such replacement or additional Revolving Credit Notes as shall be required by the Administrative Agent (and requested by the Lenders). The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to execute each Additional Lender Assumption Agreement on behalf of the Lenders.

(iii) On each Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date, the Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves with respect to the Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, commitment fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, in order to reallocate among such Lenders such outstanding amounts, based on the revised Commitment Percentages and to otherwise carry out fully the intent and terms of this Section 2.9(b) (and the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders any amounts that would be payable pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof if such adjustments among the Lenders would cause a prepayment of one or more Loans). In connection therewith, it is understood and agreed that the Maximum Revolving Amount of any Lender will not be increased (or decreased except pursuant to subsection (a) hereof) without the prior written consent of such Lender. The Borrower shall not request any increase in the Total Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) if a Default or an Event of Default shall then exist, or, after giving pro forma effect to any such increase, would exist. At the time of any such increase, at the request of the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties and the Lenders shall enter into an amendment to evidence such increase and to address related provisions as deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrative Agent. Upon each increase of the Maximum Revolving Amount, the Total Commitment Amount shall be increased by the same amount.

Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on Loans (other than Base Rate Loans and Loans denominated in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars where market convention does not follow a 360-day year), Letter of Credit fees, Related Expenses and commitment and other fees and charges hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty (360) days and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest on Base Rate Loans and Loans denominated in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars where market convention

is to follow a 365/366 day year shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 2.11. Mandatory Payments.

(a) Revolving Credit Exposure; Excess Cash and Cash Equivalents.

(i) If, at any time, the Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the next Business Day, pay an aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans or the Swingline Loans sufficient to bring the Revolving Credit Exposure within the Revolving Credit Commitment. Prepayments resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations shall be made as contemplated by Section 2.5(g).

(ii) During the period beginning on the Tenth Amendment Effective Date and ending on December 28, 2024, if the aggregate amount of the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ cash and Cash Equivalents (excluding Cash Equivalents subject to the Administrative Agent’s first-priority Lien) exceeds $60,000,000 at any time, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Credit Exposure (or, if applicable, cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure on terms and in amounts reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) within two Business Days after such excess first arises.

(b) Swing Line Exposure. If, at any time, the Swing Line Exposure shall exceed the Swing Line Commitment, the Borrower shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the next Business Day, pay an aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans sufficient to bring the Swing Line Exposure within the Swing Line Commitment.

(c) Application of Mandatory Payments. Unless otherwise designated by the Borrower, each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof shall be applied in the following order (i) first, on a pro rata basis for the Lenders, to outstanding Base Rate Loans, (ii) second, on a pro rata basis for the Lenders, to outstanding RFR Loans and Other Interest Rate Loans using Payment Date interest mechanics, and (iii) third, on a pro rata basis for the Lenders, to outstanding Term SOFR Loans, EURIBOR Loans, and Other Interest Rate Loans using Interest Period interest rate mechanics; provided that, if the outstanding principal amount of any Loan shall be reduced to an amount less than the minimum amount set forth in Section 2.5(d) hereof as a result of such prepayment, then such Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the date of such prepayment. Any prepayment of a Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to the prepayment provisions set forth in Article III hereof.

Section 2.12. Swap Obligations Make-Well Provision. The Borrower, to the extent that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party in order for such Credit Party to honor its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Swap Obligations. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.12 shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations are paid in full. The Borrower intends that this Section 2.12 constitute, and this Section 2.12 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 2.13. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Loan in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Loan any change in national or

international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls, or any other event, in each case, which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for such Loan to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the Borrower, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, and such Loan shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall be made in Dollars on the requested date for such Loan to be extended, with such Loan being made in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related request for funding, continuation or conversion, as the case may be, as a Base Rate Loan, unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related request for funding, continuation or conversion, as the case may be.

Section 2.14. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s offices on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under the requirements of this Agreement, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

Section 2.15. Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Borrower from time to time may request in writing that one or more of its Foreign Subsidiaries become borrowers hereunder with the ability to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit (each, a “Foreign Subsidiary Borrower”). Each such request shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly circulate each such request to the Lenders. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 20 days after its receipt of such request as to whether the applicable Foreign Subsidiary may become a party hereto as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. No Foreign Subsidiary shall become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower unless approved in writing by all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Any Lender that fails to respond to such a request shall be deemed to have rejected the joinder of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender may request from the Borrower certain information in respect of such a Foreign Subsidiary in order to make such decision, including, without limitation, such Foreign Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization. Loans and Letters of Credit requested by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be

made or issued from the United States. If the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree with the Borrower to add a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto, this Agreement (and the other Loan Documents, as relevant) shall be amended to give effect to such addition. All Lenders shall be required to make Loans to each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, subject to any borrowing sublimits agreed to by the Borrower, the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders. Each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deliver, among other things (and in each case in form, scope and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders), (a) amendments, joinders and other documents required by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to give such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower the ability to receive extensions of credit hereunder, (b) collateral documents made by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in favor of the Administrative Agent, (c) resolutions, charter documents, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, as may be required by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including without limitation, information necessary to evaluate (i) any withholding tax that may arise in respect of any Loans made to or Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Foreign Subsidiary, and (ii) the manner in which Loans may be made available to such Foreign Subsidiary, including in Dollars or the requested Agreed Currency), (d) promissory notes signed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to the extent any Lender so requires, and (e) information required under “know your customer”, anti-money laundering or similar regulations to which such Lender is subject. No Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be joined hereto if (x) a violation of applicable law would result therefrom or (y) any Lender or the Administrative Agent objects to any adverse change in tax treatment that would result therefrom (including, without limitation, the payment of any tax gross-up or the accrual of any withholding tax). In addition, extensions of credit and other financial accommodations from the United States into the applicable jurisdiction must be permitted under applicable law. The Borrower and each Guarantor of Payment shall guaranty the Obligations of each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower on terms and conditions acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each Foreign Subsidiary that is or becomes a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each related document, including service of process.

Section 2.16. Sustainability Adjustments.

(a) ESG Amendment. After the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower, in consultation with the Sustainability Coordinator, shall be entitled to establish up to two key performance indicators (“KPIs”) with respect to certain environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) targets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, which KPIs shall apply to extensions of credit and commitment fees hereunder. The Sustainability Coordinator and the Borrower may amend this Agreement (such amendment, an “ESG Amendment”) solely for the purpose of incorporating the KPIs and the other related provisions (the “ESG Pricing Provisions”) into this Agreement, and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Borrower) written notice that such Required Lenders object to such ESG Amendment. In the event that the Required Lenders deliver a written notice objecting to any such ESG Amendment, an alternative ESG Amendment may be effectuated with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Borrower and the Sustainability Coordinator. Upon the effectiveness of any such ESG Amendment, certain adjustments (increase, decrease or no adjustment) to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Margin will be made based on the Borrower’s performance against one or both of the KPIs; provided that the amount of such adjustments shall not exceed a 5 basis point increase or decrease, in the aggregate, in the Applicable Margin (with such 5 basis point amount to be split across two KPIs if both are in existence at the same time), and a 1 basis point increase or decrease, in the aggregate, in the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (with such 1 basis point amount to be split across two KPIs if

both are in existence at the same time); provided, further, that no Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Applicable Margin shall equal less than zero as a result of such adjustment. A pricing adjustment may be made solely based solely on the Borrower’s compliance with (or failure to comply with) a single KPI. The pricing adjustments pursuant to the KPIs will require, among other things, reporting and validation of the measurement of the KPIs in a manner that is aligned with the Sustainability Linked Loan Principles and is to be agreed between the Borrower and the Sustainability Coordinator (each acting reasonably). The Administrative Agent shall receive notice from the Borrower and the Sustainability Coordinator prior to giving effect to any ESG Amendment and pricing changes contemplated hereby. Following the effectiveness of an ESG Amendment:

(i) any modification to the ESG Pricing Provisions which has the effect of (x) reducing the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Applicable Margin to a level not otherwise permitted by Section 2.16(a) or (y) increasing the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Applicable Margin that is not accompanied by a corresponding reduction of the applicable Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Applicable Margin by a percentage equivalent to such increase, shall (in each case) be subject to the consent of all Lenders; and

(ii) any other modification to the ESG Pricing Provisions (other than as provided for in Section 2.16(a)(i) above) shall be subject only to the consent of the Required Lenders.

(b) Sustainability Coordinator. If engaged by the Borrower, the Sustainability Coordinator will (i) assist the Borrower in determining the ESG Pricing Provisions in connection with the ESG Amendment and (ii) assist the Borrower in preparing informational materials focused on ESG to be used in connection with the ESG Amendment.

(a) If, after the Closing Date, (i) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority, or (ii) the compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(A) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Taxes and Excluded Taxes which are governed by Section 3.2 hereof);

(B) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, insurance charge, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the interest rate for the applicable Loan; or

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining the applicable Loan or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of a written request therefor, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection (a), such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower in reasonable detail (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that, after the Closing Date, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or Risk-Based Capital Guidelines regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or liquidity requirements, or in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit, to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such corporation with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, upon submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (which shall include the method for calculating such amount and reasonable detail with respect to such calculation), the Borrower shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) For purposes of this Section 3.1 and Section 3.5 hereof, the Dodd-Frank Act, any requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), and any rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines and directives adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented in connection with any of the foregoing, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented, are deemed to have been introduced and adopted after the Closing Date.

(d) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.1 together with a reasonably detailed calculation and description of such amounts contemplated by this Section 3.1, submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In determining any such additional amounts, such Lender may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole discretion) shall deem applicable. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 for any increased costs or reductions to the extent such Lender notifies the Borrower thereof more than one hundred eighty (180) days after such Lender becomes aware of such right to additional compensation (except that, if the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions are retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 3.2. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes or Other Taxes. If any Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable

to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after deducting, withholding and payment of all Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in the Loan Documents.

(b) Whenever any Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be withheld and paid by a Credit Party, such Credit Party shall timely withhold and pay such taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities. As promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by such Credit Party showing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender. If such Credit Party shall fail to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Credit Party and the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the appropriate Lenders on demand for any incremental Taxes or Other Taxes paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of any such failure.

(c) If any Lender shall be so indemnified by a Credit Party, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain the benefits of any refund, deduction or credit for any taxes or other amounts with respect to the amount paid by such Credit Party and shall reimburse such Credit Party to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Lender shall receive a refund with respect to the amount paid by such Credit Party or an effective net reduction in taxes or other governmental charges (including any taxes imposed on or measured by the total net income of such Lender) of the United States or any state or subdivision or any other Governmental Authority thereof by virtue of any such deduction or credit, after first giving effect to all other deductions and credits otherwise available to such Lender. If, at the time any audit of such Lender’s income tax return is completed, such Lender determines, based on such audit, that it shall not have been entitled to the full amount of any refund reimbursed to such Credit Party as aforesaid or that its net income taxes shall not have been reduced by a credit or deduction for the full amount reimbursed to such Credit Party as aforesaid, such Credit Party, upon request of such Lender, shall promptly pay to such Lender the amount so refunded to which such Lender shall not have been so entitled, or the amount by which the net income taxes of such Lender shall not have been so reduced, as the case may be.

(d) Each Lender that is not (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States (or any jurisdiction thereof), or (iii) an estate or trust that is subject to federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income (any such Person, a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8IMY or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement with respect to such interest and two copies of a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by Credit Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement or such other Loan Document. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms or appropriate replacements promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that such Lender is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this

subsection (c), a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this subsection (c) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) Any Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, upon the reasonable written request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(f) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that (i) such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender, and (ii) to the extent that such Lender fails to comply with the requirements of this subpart (f), such Lender shall not be entitled to additional compensation otherwise payable under this Section 3.2 if such additional compensation would not have been required had such Lender so complied.

(g) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(h) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(i) The agreements in this Section 3.2 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(j) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans and the Letters of Credit as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

Section 3.3. Funding Losses. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender, promptly after receipt of a written request therefor, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Loans (other than Base Rate Loans not using the Term SOFR component thereof) after the Borrower has given a notice

(including a written or verbal notice that is subsequently revoked) requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Loans other than Base Rate Loans (excluding those accruing interest based on the Term SOFR component thereof) after the Borrower has given a notice (including a written or verbal notice that is subsequently revoked) thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of (i) a Term SOFR Loan, a EURIBOR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Period interest rate mechanics on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, that no such indemnity payment shall be required in respect of a Swing Loan or (ii) an RFR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Payment Date interest rate mechanics on a day that is not the applicable Interest Payment Date therefor, (d) any conversion of a Loan accruing interest using Interest Period mechanics to a Base Rate Loan, an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Period interest rate mechanics or an RFR Loan on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or any conversion of an RFR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Payment Date interest rate mechanics to a Base Rate Loan, a Term SOFR Loan, a EURIBOR Loan or an Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Payment Date interest rate mechanics on a day that is not the applicable Interest Payment Date therefor; provided, that no such indemnity payment shall be required in respect of a Swing Loan, or (e) any compulsory assignment of such Lender’s interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.3(c) or 11.12 hereof. Such indemnification, in respect of a Term SOFR Loan, EURIBOR Loan or applicable Other Interest Rate Loan, shall be in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amounts so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the appropriate interbank market, along with any administration fee charged by such Lender. With respect to RFR Loans or applicable Other Interest Rate Loans, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, if any. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.3 submitted to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by any Lender together with a reasonably detailed calculation and description of such amounts, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 3.4. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office (or an affiliate of such Lender, if practical for such Lender) for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof.

Section 3.5. Lending Unlawful; Inability to Determine Rate; Benchmark Replacement.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, but subject to the remainder of this Section 3.5, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest

error), or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have determined, that:

(i) for any reason in connection with any request for a Loan (other than a Base Rate Loan (excluding the Term SOFR component thereof)), or a conversion or continuation thereof, that the Adjusted Term SOFR Screen Rate, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Adjusted Other Interest Rate, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of the funding such Loans; or

(ii) the interest rate applicable to Loans (other than a Base Rate Loan) is not ascertainable or available (including, without limitation, because the applicable screen on which the rate for such Loan is published (including any successor or substitute page on such screen) is unavailable, and such inability to ascertain or unavailability is not expected to be permanent,

then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of the Type of Loan subject thereto and require any affected Loan to be repaid or converted (and redenominated into Dollars, if applicable) to Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

(b) Benchmark Transition Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any agreement evidencing Swap Obligations shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 3.5), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement with respect to Dollars is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Agreed Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.5, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any

action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.5.

(e) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Screen Rate and the EURIBOR Screen Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for any Benchmark settings and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor

(f) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon notice to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.4 of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period and until a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with this Section 3.5, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Loan (other than a Base Rate Loan (excluding the Term SOFR prong thereof, if unavailable) impacted by the applicable interest rate being unavailable, or any request for the conversion or continuation of such a Loan (other than a Base Rate Loan (excluding the Term SOFR prong thereof, if unavailable)) to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period at the end of the applicable Interest Period, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request at the end of the applicable Interest Period into a request for a Base Rate Loan (excluding the Term SOFR prong thereof, if unavailable) or conversion to a Base Rate Loan (with a corresponding currency redenomination, if applicable). During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

(g) Illegality. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that, after the Closing Date, (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or (ii) any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert (if permitted pursuant to this Agreement) any Loan into, a Loan (other than a Base Rate Loan), the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert into any such Loan shall, upon such determination, be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding Loans payable to such Lender shall (i) if denominated in Dollars, automatically convert (if conversion is permitted under this Agreement) into a Base Rate Loan (excluding the Term SOFR component thereof, if unavailable), or be repaid (if no conversion is permitted) at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by law or such assertion, or (ii) if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, shall be repaid at the end of the then current Interest Period or on the next scheduled Interest Payment Date. The foregoing also shall apply to Swing

Loans accruing interest at the Term SOFR Rate or any Base Rate Loan accruing interest using the Term SOFR component thereof.

Section 3.6. Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof, or asserts its inability to make a Loan pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof; provided that (a) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (c) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 3.4 hereof so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof or, if it has taken any action, such request has still been made, (d) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement and assume all commitments and obligations of such replaced Lender, (e) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 3.3 hereof if any Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto (if applicable), (f) the replacement Lender, if not already a Lender, shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (g) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.10 hereof (provided that the Borrower (or the succeeding Lender, if such Lender is willing) shall be obligated to pay the assignment fee referred to therein), (h) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof, as the case may be; provided that a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to replace such Lender cease to apply, and (i) if more than one Lender shall request such reimbursement based on the same circumstances giving rise to such request, the Borrower shall not be permitted to replace only one of such Lenders.

Section 3.7. Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of such Lender’s Loans in any manner such Lender deems to be appropriate; it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each Term SOFR Loan, EURIBOR Loan, or Other Interest Rate Loan using Interest Period interest rate mechanics during the applicable Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the applicable interest rate for such Interest Period.

COVENANTS

So long as any Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnity obligations) remain unpaid or the Commitment remains outstanding, the Borrower will (or, as applicable, cause each other Company to) comply with the following requirements, unless the Required

Lenders (or the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders) shall otherwise consent in writing:

Section 5.1. Insurance. Each Company (other than a Dormant Subsidiary) shall at all times maintain insurance upon its Inventory, Equipment and other personal and real property (including, if applicable, insurance required by the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994) in such form, written by such companies, in such amounts, for such periods, and against such risks as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, with provisions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for, with respect to Credit Parties, payment of all losses thereunder to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and such Company as their interests may appear (with lender’s loss payable and additional insured endorsements, as appropriate, in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders), and, if required by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deposit the policies with the Administrative Agent. Any such policies of insurance shall provide for no fewer than thirty (30) days prior written notice of cancellation to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. If any Event of Default then exists, any sums received by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in payment of insurance losses, returns, or unearned premiums under the policies may, at the option of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, be applied upon the Obligations whether or not the same is then due and payable, or may be delivered to the Companies for the purpose of replacing, repairing, or restoring the insured property; provided that if an Event of Default does not then exist, any such sums received by the Administrative Agent shall be delivered to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to act as attorney-in-fact for the Companies, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in obtaining, adjusting, settling and canceling such insurance and indorsing any drafts. In the event of failure to provide such insurance as herein provided, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, provide such insurance and the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, upon demand, the cost thereof. Should the Borrower fail to pay such sum to the Administrative Agent upon demand, interest shall accrue thereon, from the date of demand until paid in full, at the Default Rate. Within ten days of the Administrative Agent’s written request, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent such information about the insurance of the Companies as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which information shall be prepared in form and detail satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and certified by a Financial Officer.

Section 5.2. Money Obligations. Each Company shall pay in full (a) prior in each case to the date when penalties would attach, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges and levies (except only those so long as and to the extent that the same shall be contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings and for which adequate provisions have been established in accordance with GAAP) for which it may be or become liable or to which any or all of its properties may be or become subject; (b) all of its material wage obligations to its employees in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. §§ 206-207) or any comparable provisions; and (c) all of its other material obligations calling for the payment of money (except only those so long as and to the extent that the same shall be contested in good faith and for which adequate provisions have been established in accordance with GAAP) before such payment becomes overdue.

Section 6.11. Employee Benefits Plans. Schedule 6.11 hereto identifies each ERISA Plan as of the Closing Date.

With respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a), except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust operationally comply with the applicable requirements of Code Section 401(a); (ii) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have been amended to comply with all such requirements as currently in effect, other than those requirements for which a retroactive amendment can be made within the “remedial amendment period” available under Code Section 401(b) (as extended under Treasury Regulations and other Treasury pronouncements upon which taxpayers may rely); (iii) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service or is in the form of a prototype or volume submitter plan that is the subject of a favorable opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service, unless the ERISA Plan was first adopted at a time for which the above-described “remedial amendment period” has not yet expired and subject to changes the Internal Revenue Service makes to the determination letter process; (iv) the ERISA Plan currently satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b); and (v) no contribution made to the ERISA Plan is subject to an excise tax under Code Section 4972. With respect to any Pension Plan, the “accumulated benefit obligation” of Controlled Group members with respect to the Pension Plan (as determined in accordance with Statement of Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”, as amended) does not exceed the fair market value of Pension Plan assets by an amount that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower represents that, as of the date hereof and throughout the term of this Agreement, no Credit Party is (1) an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, (2) a plan or account subject to Section 4975 of the Code; (3) an entity deemed to hold “plan assets”

of any such plans or accounts for purposes of ERISA or the Code; or (4) a “governmental plan” within the meaning of ERISA.

Section 6.13. Solvency. The Borrower has received consideration that is the reasonably equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that the Borrower has incurred to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Borrower is not insolvent as defined in any applicable state, federal or relevant foreign statute, nor will the Borrower be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Borrower is not engaged or about to engage in any business or transaction for which the assets retained by it are or will be an unreasonably small amount of capital, taking into consideration the obligations to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders incurred hereunder. The Borrower does not intend to, nor does it believe that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. Each Company is Solvent.

ARTICLE VII

SECURITY

Section 7.1. Security Interest in Collateral. In consideration of and as security for the full and complete payment of all of the Secured Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders (and affiliates thereof that hold Secured Obligations), a security interest in the Collateral.

Section 7.2. Collections and Receipt of Proceeds by Borrower.

(a) Prior to the exercise by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders of their rights under Article IX hereof, both (i) the lawful collection and enforcement of all of the Borrower’s Accounts, and (ii) the lawful receipt and retention by the Borrower of all Proceeds of all of the Borrower’s Accounts and Inventory shall be as the agent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

(b) Upon written notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, a Cash Collateral Account shall be opened by the Borrower at the main office of the Administrative Agent (or such other office as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent) and all such lawful collections of the Borrower’s Accounts and such Proceeds of the Borrower’s Accounts and Inventory shall be remitted daily by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in the form in which they are received by the Borrower, either by mailing or by delivering such collections and Proceeds to the Administrative Agent, appropriately endorsed for deposit in the Cash Collateral Account. In the event that such notice is given to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall not commingle such collections or Proceeds with any of the Borrower’s other funds or property, but shall hold such collections and Proceeds separate and apart therefrom upon an express trust for the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. In such case, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, and shall, at the request of the Required Lenders, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, apply all or any portion of the account balance in the Cash Collateral Account as a credit against (i) the outstanding principal or interest of the Loans, or (ii) any other Secured Obligations in accordance with this Agreement. If any remittance shall be dishonored, or if, upon final payment, any claim with respect thereto shall be made against the Administrative Agent on its warranties of collection, the Administrative Agent may charge the amount of such item against the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent or with any other Lender, and, in any event, retain the same and the Borrower’s interest therein as additional security for the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, release funds from the Cash Collateral Account to the Borrower for use in the Borrower’s business. The balance in the Cash Collateral Account may be withdrawn by the Borrower upon termination of this Agreement and payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnity obligations).

(c) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Administrative Agent’s written request, the Borrower shall cause all remittances representing collections and Proceeds of Collateral to be mailed to a lockbox at a location acceptable to the

Administrative Agent, to which the Administrative Agent shall have access for the processing of such items in accordance with the provisions, terms and conditions of the customary lockbox agreement of the Administrative Agent.

(d) The Administrative Agent, or the Administrative Agent’s designated agent, is hereby constituted and appointed attorney-in-fact for the Borrower with authority and power to endorse, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any and all instruments, documents, and chattel paper upon the failure of the Borrower to do so. Such authority and power, being coupled with an interest, shall be (i) irrevocable until all of the Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnity obligations) are paid, (ii) exercisable by the Administrative Agent at any time and without any request upon the Borrower by the Administrative Agent to so endorse, and (iii) exercisable in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, and any and all other similar notices with respect thereto, regardless of the form of any endorsement thereof. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be bound or obligated to take any action to preserve any rights therein against prior parties thereto.

Section 7.3. Collections and Receipt of Proceeds by Administrative Agent. The Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, or the Administrative Agent’s designated agent, as the Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to exercise, at any time, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any of the following powers which, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until the complete and full payment of all of the Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnity obligations):

(a) to receive, retain, acquire, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept, and deposit, in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, any and all of the Borrower’s cash, instruments, chattel paper, documents, Proceeds of Accounts, Proceeds of Inventory, collection of Accounts, and any other writings relating to any of the Collateral. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, and any and all other similar notices with respect thereto, regardless of the form of any endorsement thereof. The Administrative Agent shall not be bound or obligated to take any action to preserve any rights therein against prior parties thereto;

(b) to transmit to Account Debtors, on any or all of the Borrower’s Accounts, notice of assignment to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, thereof and the security interest therein, and to request from such Account Debtors at any time, in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, information concerning the Borrower’s Accounts and the amounts owing thereon;

(c) to transmit to purchasers of any or all of the Borrower’s Inventory (other than with respect to individual consumers), notice of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein, and to request from such purchasers at any time, in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, information concerning the Borrower’s Inventory and the amounts owing thereon by such purchasers;

(d) to notify and require Account Debtors on the Borrower’s Accounts and purchasers of the Borrower’s Inventory on credit granted by the Borrower to make payment of their obligations to the Borrower directly to the Administrative Agent;

(e) to enter into or assent to such amendment, compromise, extension, release or other modification of any kind of, or substitution for, the Accounts, or any thereof, as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem to be advisable;

(f) to enforce the Accounts or any thereof, or any other Collateral, by suit or otherwise, to maintain any such suit or other proceeding in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, and to withdraw any such suit or other proceeding. The Borrower agrees to lend every assistance requested by the Administrative Agent in respect of the foregoing, all at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent and including, without limitation, the furnishing of such witnesses and of such records and other writings as the Administrative Agent may require in connection with making legal proof of any Account. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent in full for all court costs and attorneys’ fees and every other cost, expense or liability, if any, incurred or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, which obligation of the Borrower shall constitute Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default Rate;

(g) to take or bring, in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, all steps, actions, suits, or proceedings deemed by the Administrative Agent necessary or desirable to effect the receipt, enforcement, and collection of the Collateral; and

(h) to accept all collections in any form relating to the Collateral, including remittances that may reflect deductions, and to deposit the same into the Cash Collateral Account or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, to apply them as a payment against the Loans or any other Secured Obligations in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 7.4. Administrative Agent’s Authority Under Pledged Notes. For the better protection of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower has executed (or will execute, with respect to future Pledged Notes) an appropriate endorsement on (or separate from) each Pledged Note and has deposited (or will promptly deposit, but in any event within 30 days after the date of receipt thereof) such Pledged Note with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) ask for, demand, collect and receive all payments of principal of and interest on the Pledged Notes; (b) compromise and settle any dispute arising in respect of the foregoing; (c) execute and deliver vouchers, receipts and acquittances in full discharge of the foregoing; (d) exercise, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, any right, power or privilege granted to the holder of any Pledged Note by the provisions thereof including, without limitation, the right to demand security or to waive any default thereunder; (e) endorse the Borrower’s name to each check or other writing received by the Administrative Agent as a payment or other proceeds of or otherwise in connection with any Pledged Note; (f) enforce delivery and payment of the principal and/or interest on the Pledged Notes, in each case by suit or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may desire; and (g) enforce the security, if any, for the Pledged Notes by instituting foreclosure proceedings, by conducting public or other sales or otherwise, and to take all other steps as the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, may deem advisable in connection with the forgoing; provided, however, that nothing contained or implied herein or elsewhere shall obligate the Administrative Agent to institute any action, suit or proceeding or to make or do any other act or thing contemplated by this Section 7.4 or prohibit the Administrative Agent from settling, withdrawing or dismissing any action, suit or proceeding or require the Administrative Agent to preserve any other right of any kind in respect of the Pledged Notes and the security, if any, therefor.

Section 7.5. Commercial Tort Claims. The Borrower has provided to the Administrative Agent a list of all Commercial Tort Claims of the Companies in existence as of the Closing Date. If the Borrower shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, the Borrower shall, no later than the date the next Compliance Certificate is due, notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by the Borrower, that sets forth the details thereof and grants to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) a Lien thereon and

on the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be prepared by and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.6. Use of Inventory and Equipment.

REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

Notwithstanding any contrary provision or inference herein or elsewhere:

Section 9.1. Optional Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in Section 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9 or 8.10 hereof shall occur, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and shall, at the written request of the Required Lenders, give written notice to the Borrower to:

(a) terminate the Commitment, if not previously terminated, and, immediately upon such election, the obligations of the Lenders, and each thereof, to make any further Loan, and the obligation of the Issuing Lender to issue any Letter of Credit, immediately shall be terminated; and/or

(b) accelerate the maturity of all of the Obligations (if the Obligations are not already due and payable), whereupon all of the Obligations shall become and thereafter be immediately due and payable in full without any presentment or demand and without any further or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

Section 9.2. Automatic Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in Section 8.11 hereof shall occur:

(a) all of the Commitment shall automatically and immediately terminate, if not previously terminated, and no Lender thereafter shall be under any obligation to grant any further Loan, nor shall the Issuing Lender be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit; and

(b) the principal of and interest then outstanding on all of the Loans, and all of the other Obligations, shall thereupon become and thereafter be immediately due and payable in full (if the Obligations are not already due and payable), all without any presentment, demand or notice of any kind, which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

Section 9.3. Letters of Credit. If the maturity of the Obligations shall be accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.2 hereof, the Borrower shall immediately deposit with the Administrative Agent, as security for the obligations of the Borrower and any Guarantor of Payment to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any then outstanding Letters of Credit, cash in Dollars equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the sum of the aggregate undrawn balance of any then outstanding Letters of Credit. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders are hereby authorized, at their option, to deduct any and all such amounts from any deposit balances then owing by any Lender (or any affiliate of such Lender, wherever located) to or for the credit or account of any Company, as security for the obligations of the Borrower and any Guarantor of Payment to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any then outstanding Letters of Credit.

Section 9.4. Offsets.

(a) If there shall occur or exist any Event of Default referred to in Section 8.11 hereof or if the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.2 hereof, each Lender shall have the right at any time to set off against, and to appropriate and apply toward the payment of, any and all of the Obligations then owing by the Borrower or a

Guarantor of Payment to such Lender (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to Section 2.2(b), 2.2(c) or 9.5 hereof), whether or not the same shall then have matured, any and all deposit (general or special) balances and all other indebtedness then held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies or any affiliate of such Lender, wherever located) to or for the credit or account of the Borrower or any Guarantor of Payment, all without notice to or demand upon the Borrower or any other Person, all such notices and demands being hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if a Lender acts as a Securities Intermediary or a depository institution for a Credit Party, and the applicable Securities Accounts or Deposit Accounts of such Credit Party with such Lender (or an affiliate of a Lender) are not subject to a Control Agreement, then such Lender agrees that such accounts are subject to the Lien of the Administrative Agent (to the extent granted pursuant to the Security Documents) and it will not set off against or appropriate toward the payment of, any Indebtedness owing to such Lender that does not constitute Obligations (other than Customary Setoffs with respect to such Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts).

Section 9.5. Equalization Provisions. Each Lender agrees with the other Lenders that, if it at any time shall obtain any Advantage over the other Lenders, or any thereof, in respect of the Obligations (except as to Swing Loans and Letters of Credit prior to the Administrative Agent’s giving of notice to participate and except under Article III hereof), it shall purchase from the other Lenders, for cash and at par, such additional participation in the Obligations as shall be necessary to nullify such Advantage. If any such Advantage resulting in the purchase of an additional participation as aforesaid shall be recovered in whole or in part from the Lender receiving such Advantage, each such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored (but without interest unless the Lender receiving such Advantage is required to pay interest on such Advantage to the Person recovering such Advantage from such Lender) ratably to the extent of the recovery. Each Lender further agrees with the other Lenders that (a) if it at any time shall receive any payment for or on behalf of the Borrower (or through any Guarantor of Payment) on any Indebtedness owing by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by reason of offset of any deposit or other indebtedness, by counterclaim or cross-action, by the enforcement of any right under any Loan Document, or otherwise), or (b) if any Lender (or affiliate of a Lender) (i) maintains Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts of the Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiary, and (ii) exercises a right of offset or takes other action against such Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts; then such Lender will apply such payment (other than Customary Setoffs with respect to the Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts referenced in subpart (b) above) first to any and all Obligations owing by the Borrower to that Lender (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to this Section 9.5 or any other section of this Agreement). Each Credit Party agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from the other Lenders or any thereof pursuant to this Section 9.5 may exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 9.6. Collateral. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall at all times have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the U.C.C., in addition to the rights and remedies of a secured party provided elsewhere within this Agreement, in any other Related Writing executed by the Borrower or otherwise provided in law or equity. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may require the Borrower to assemble the collateral securing the Obligations, which the Borrower agrees to do, and make it available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders at a reasonably convenient place to be designated by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, with or without notice to or demand upon the Borrower and with or without the aid of legal process, make use of such force as may be necessary to enter any premises where such collateral, or any

thereof, may be found and to take possession thereof (including anything found in or on such collateral that is not specifically described in this Agreement, each of which findings shall be considered to be an accession to and a part of such collateral) and for that purpose may pursue such collateral wherever the same may be found, without liability for trespass or damage caused thereby to the Borrower. After any delivery or taking of possession of the collateral securing the Obligations, or any thereof, pursuant to this Agreement, then, with or without resort to the Borrower personally or any other Person or property, all of which the Borrower hereby waives, and upon such terms and in such manner as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable, the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, may sell, assign, transfer and deliver any of such collateral at any time, or from time to time. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. No prior notice need be given to the Borrower or to any other Person in the case of any sale of such collateral that the Administrative Agent determines to be perishable or to be declining speedily in value or that is customarily sold in any recognized market, but in any other case the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower not fewer than ten days’ prior notice of either the time and place of any public sale of such collateral or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof is to be made. The Borrower waives advertisement of any such sale and (except to the extent specifically required by the preceding sentence) waives notice of any kind in respect of any such sale. At any such public sale, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may purchase such collateral, or any part thereof, free from any right of redemption, all of which rights the Borrower hereby waives and releases. After deducting all Related Expenses, and after paying all claims, if any, secured by Liens having precedence over this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may apply the net proceeds of each such sale to or toward the payment of the Secured Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and by such division as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Any excess, to the extent permitted by law, shall be paid to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall at all times have the right to obtain new appraisals of the Borrower or any collateral securing the Obligations, the cost of which shall be paid by the Borrower.

Section 9.7. Other Remedies. The remedies in this Article IX are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other right, power, privilege, or remedy, either in law, in equity, or otherwise, to which the Lenders may be entitled. The Administrative Agent shall exercise the rights under this Article IX and all other collection efforts on behalf of the Lenders and no Lender shall act independently with respect thereto, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise remedies, pursuant to the Loan Documents, against collateral securing the Secured Obligations, on behalf of any Affiliate of a Lender that holds Secured Obligations, and no Affiliate of a Lender shall act independently with respect thereto, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

KeyBank National Association acted as administrative agent under the Existing Credit Agreement. Pursuant to Section 11.23 hereof, KeyBank National Association has resigned as administrative agent and U.S. Bank has agreed to act as administrative agent. The Lenders authorize U.S. Bank and U.S. Bank hereby agrees to act as agent for the Lenders in respect of

this Agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, and upon the following terms and conditions:

Section 10.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, attorneys or employees shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), or be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (b) be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof on the part of the Borrower or any other Company, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Company, or (c) be liable to any of the Companies for consequential damages resulting from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong in connection with the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans or Letters of Credit or any of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

Section 10.2. ERISA Matters. Each Lender as of the date hereof represents and warrants as of the date hereof to the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that such Lender is not and will not be (1) an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, (2) a plan or account subject to Section 4975 of the Code; (3) an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” of any such plans or accounts for purposes of ERISA or the Code; or (4) a “governmental plan” within the meaning of ERISA.

Section 10.3. Consultation With Counsel. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel selected by the Administrative Agent and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.

Section 10.4. Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any duty to examine into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness, genuineness or value of any Loan Document or any other Related Writing furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or the value of any collateral obtained hereunder, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine and what they purport to be.

Section 10.5. Administrative Agent and Affiliates. U.S. Bank and its affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Companies and Affiliates as though U.S. Bank were not the

Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, U.S. Bank or its affiliates may receive information regarding any Company or any Affiliate (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Company or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to other Lenders. With respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (if any), U.S. Bank and its affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though U.S. Bank were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include U.S. Bank and its affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

Section 10.6. Knowledge or Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable, in its discretion, for the protection of the interests of the Lenders.

Section 10.7. Action by Administrative Agent. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, so long as the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 10.6 hereof, to assume that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights that may be vested in it by, or with respect to taking or refraining from taking any action or actions that it may be able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, certificate, warranty or other paper or instrument believed by it to be genuine or authentic or to be signed by the proper party or parties, or with respect to anything that it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment, or that may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the premises. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent’s acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

Section 10.8. Release of Collateral or Guarantor of Payment; Lien Subordination. In the event of a merger, transfer of assets or other transaction permitted pursuant to Section 5.12 hereof (or otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement) where the proceeds of such merger, transfer or other transaction are applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the extent required to be so applied, or in the event of a merger, consolidation, dissolution or similar event, permitted pursuant to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the Borrower, is hereby authorized by the Lenders to (a) release the relevant Collateral (and any other collateral securing the Obligations) from this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) release a Guarantor of Payment in connection with such permitted transfer or event, and (c) duly assign, transfer and deliver to the affected Person (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such Collateral (and any other collateral securing the Obligations) as is then (or has been) so transferred or released and as may be in the possession of the Administrative Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. In addition, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its

discretion, to subordinate its Lien hereunder on any Collateral to the holder of any Lien on such Collateral to the extent such Lien is permitted under Section 5.9(a), (b), (e), or (f).

Section 10.9. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 10.10. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) ratably, according to the total of their respective Commitment Percentages and ratable share of Term Loan Exposure, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or from any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent in any capacity other than as agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 10.10. The undertaking in this Section 10.10 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, if any, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, termination of the Commitment, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the agent.

Section 10.11. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as agent hereunder by giving not fewer than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders (with the consent of the Borrower so long as an Event of Default does not exist and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Administrative Agent’s notice to the Lenders of its resignation, then the Administrative Agent shall appoint a successor agent that shall serve as agent until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date that is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon its appointment, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties as agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” means such successor effective upon its appointment, and the former agent’s rights, powers and duties as agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted

to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.12. Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender and the documents associated therewith. The Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with the Letters of Credit and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Article X, included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Lender.

Section 10.13. Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Swing Loans. The Swing Line Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the Swing Loans as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Article X, included the Swing Line Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Swing Line Lender.

Section 10.14. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, (a) the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to (i) file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent) allowed in such judicial proceedings, and (ii) collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and (b) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Section 10.15. No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s or its affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other anti-terrorism law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Borrower, its Affiliates or agents, the Loan

100

Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.

Section 10.16. Other Agents. The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing right, in consultation with the Borrower, from time to time to designate one or more Lenders (or its or their affiliates) as “syndication agent”, “co-syndication agent”, “documentation agent”, “co-documentation agent”, “book runner”, “lead arranger”, “joint lead arranger”, “arrangers” or other designations for purposes hereof. Any such designation referenced in the previous sentence or listed on the cover of this Agreement shall have no substantive effect, and any such Lender and its affiliates so referenced or listed shall have no additional powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities as a result thereof, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1. Lenders’ Independent Investigation. Each Lender, by its signature to this Agreement, acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent has made no representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the creditworthiness, financial condition, or any other condition of any Company or with respect to the statements contained in any information memorandum furnished in connection herewith or in any other oral or written communication between the Administrative Agent and such Lender. Each Lender represents that it has made and shall continue to make its own independent investigation of the creditworthiness, financial condition and affairs of the Companies in connection with the extension of credit hereunder, and agrees that the Administrative Agent has no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than such notices as may be expressly required to be given by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders hereunder), whether coming into its possession before the first Credit Event hereunder or at any time or times thereafter. Each Lender further represents that it has reviewed each of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.2. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No omission or course of dealing on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the holder of any Note (or, if there is no Note, the holder of the interest as reflected on the books and records of the Administrative Agent) in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and in addition to any other rights, powers or privileges held under any of the Loan Documents or by operation of law, by contract or otherwise.

101

(b) Exceptions to the General Rule. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 11.3:

(c) Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, the consent of all Lenders is required, but only the consent of Required Lenders is obtained, (any Lender withholding consent as described in this subsection (c) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Administrative Agent is not the Non-Consenting Lender, the Administrative Agent may (and shall, if requested by the Borrower), at the sole expense of the Borrower, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Borrower, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.10 hereof) all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to a financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that

102

such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from such financial institution (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Article III hereof).

(d) Generally. Notice of amendments, waivers or consents ratified by the Lenders hereunder shall be forwarded by the Administrative Agent to all of the Lenders. Each Lender or other holder of a Note, or if there is no Note, the holder of the interest as reflected on the books and records of the Administrative Agent (or interest in any Loan or Letter of Credit) shall be bound by any amendment, waiver or consent obtained as authorized by this Section 11.3, regardless of its failure to agree thereto.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, any arranger and any book runner and each of the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, and by facsimile or other electronic signature, each of which counterparts when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

(b) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any assignment and assumption agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including E-SIGN or any other state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(c) The Borrower hereby acknowledges the receipt of a copy of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

105

Section 11.10. Lender Assignments.

(a) Assignments of Commitments. Each Lender shall have the right at any time or times to assign to an Eligible Transferee (other than to a Defaulting Lender), without recourse, all or a percentage of all of the following: (i) such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) all Loans made by that Lender, (iii) such Lender’s Notes, and (iv) such Lender’s interest in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan, and any participation purchased pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or (c) or Section 9.5 hereof.

(b) Prior Consent. No assignment may be consummated pursuant to this Section 11.10 without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (other than an assignment by any Lender to any affiliate of such Lender which affiliate is an Eligible Transferee and either wholly-owned by a Lender or is wholly-owned by a Person that wholly owns, either directly or indirectly, such Lender, or to another Lender), which consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (i) the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if, at the time of the proposed assignment, any Default or Event of Default shall then exist and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent unless the Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three Business Days after notice thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time make a pledge or collateral assignment of all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, as applicable, provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder or substitute such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(c) Minimum Amount. Each such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of the lesser of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) of the assignor’s Commitment or Term Loans, as applicable, and interest herein, or the entire amount of the assignor’s Commitment or Term Loans, as applicable, and interest herein.

(d) Assignment Fee. Unless the assignment shall be to an affiliate of the assignor or the assignment shall be due to merger of the assignor or for regulatory purposes, either the assignor or the assignee shall remit to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an administrative fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500).

(e) Assignment Agreement. Unless the assignment shall be due to merger of the assignor or a collateral assignment for regulatory purposes, the assignor shall (i) cause the assignee to execute and deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver, or cause the assignee to execute and deliver, as the case may be, to the Administrative Agent such additional amendments, assurances and other writings as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

(f) Non-U.S. Assignee. If the assignment is to be made to an assignee that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, the assignor Lender shall cause such assignee, at least five Business Days prior to the effective date of such assignment, (i) to represent to the assignor Lender (for the benefit of the assignor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the assignor with respect to any payments to be made to such assignee in respect of the Loans hereunder, (ii) to furnish to the assignor Lender (and, in the case of any assignee registered in the Register (as defined below), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY, Form W-8BEN, or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (wherein such assignee claims entitlement to complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments hereunder), and (iii) to agree (for the benefit of the assignor, the

106

Administrative Agent and the Borrower) to provide to the assignor Lender (and, in the case of any assignee registered in the Register, to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) a new Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY, Form W-8BEN, or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such assignee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption.

(g) Deliveries by Borrower. Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements specified in subsections (a) through (f) above, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (i) to the Administrative Agent, the assignor and the assignee, any consent or release (of all or a portion of the obligations of the assignor) required to be delivered by the Borrower in connection with the Assignment Agreement, and (ii) to the assignee, if requested, and the assignor, if applicable, an appropriate Note or Notes. After delivery of the new Note or Notes, the assignor’s Note or Notes, if any, being replaced shall be returned to the Borrower marked “replaced”.

(h) Effect of Assignment. Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements set forth in subsections (a) through (g) above, and any other condition contained in this Section 11.10, (i) the assignee shall become and thereafter be deemed to be a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, (ii) the assignor shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent that its interest has been assigned, (iii) in the event that the assignor’s entire interest has been assigned, the assignor shall cease to be and thereafter shall no longer be deemed to be a “Lender” and (iv) the signature pages hereto and Schedule 1 hereto shall be automatically amended, without further action, to reflect the result of any such assignment.

(i) Administrative Agent to Maintain Register. Administrative Agent shall maintain at the address for notices referred to in Section 11.4 hereof a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 11.11. Sale of Participations. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell participations to one or more Eligible Transferees (each a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Commitment and the Loans and participations owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it); provided that:

(a) any such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged;

(b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations;

(c) the parties hereto shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents;

107

(d) such Participant shall be bound by the provisions of Section 9.5 hereof, and the Lender selling such participation shall obtain from such Participant a written confirmation of its agreement to be so bound; and

(e) no Participant (unless such Participant is itself a Lender) shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking action under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with such Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take action of the type described as follows:

(i) increase the portion of the participation amount of any Participant over the amount thereof then in effect, or extend the Commitment Period, without the written consent of each Participant affected thereby; or

(ii) reduce the principal amount of or extend the time for any payment of principal of any Loan, or reduce the rate of interest or extend the time for payment of interest on any Loan, or reduce the commitment fee, without the written consent of each Participant affected thereby.

The Borrower agrees that any Lender that sells participations pursuant to this Section 11.11 shall still be entitled to the benefits of Article III hereof, notwithstanding any such transfer; provided that the obligations of the Borrower shall not increase as a result of such transfer and the Borrower shall have no obligation to any Participant.

Section 11.12. Replacement of Affected Lenders. Each Lender agrees that, during the time in which any Lender is an Affected Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (and the Administrative Agent shall, if requested by the Borrower), at the sole expense of the Borrower, upon notice to such Affected Lender and the Borrower, to require that such Affected Lender assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.10 hereof), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Transferee, approved by the Borrower (unless an Event of Default shall exist) and the Administrative Agent, that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that such Affected Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (recognizing that any Affected Lender may have given up its rights under this Agreement to receive payment of fees and other amounts pursuant to Section 2.6(e) and (f) hereof), from such Eligible Transferee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Article III hereof).

Section 11.13. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender, and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party), hereby notifies the Credit Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, such Lender and the Administrative Agent are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Credit Parties, which information includes the name and address of each of the Credit Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Credit Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or a Lender in order to assist the Administrative Agent or such Lender in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

Section 11.14. Severability of Provisions; Captions; Attachments. Any provision of this Agreement that shall be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such

108

provision in any other jurisdiction. The several captions to sections and subsections herein are inserted for convenience only and shall be ignored in interpreting the provisions of this Agreement. Each schedule or exhibit attached to this Agreement shall be incorporated herein and shall be deemed to be a part hereof.

Section 11.15. Investment Purpose. Each of the Lenders represents and warrants to the Borrower that such Lender is entering into this Agreement with the present intention of acquiring any Note issued pursuant hereto (or, if there is no Note, the interest as reflected on the books and records of the Administrative Agent) for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of distribution or resale, it being understood, however, that each Lender shall at all times retain full control over the disposition of its assets.

Section 11.16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, any Note and any other Loan Document or other agreement, document or instrument attached hereto or executed on or as of the Closing Date integrate all of the terms and conditions mentioned herein or incidental hereto and supersede all oral representations and negotiations and prior writings with respect to the subject matter hereof (except with respect to any provisions of the Administrative Agent Fee Letter, that by their terms survive the termination thereof, in each case, which shall remain in full force and effect after the Closing Date).

Section 11.17. Limitations on Liability of the Issuing Lender. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letters of Credit. Neither the Issuing Lender nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by the Issuing Lender against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the account party on such Letter of Credit shall have a claim against the Issuing Lender, and the Issuing Lender shall be liable to such account party, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such account party that such account party proves were caused by (i) the Issuing Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (ii) the Issuing Lender’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.

Section 11.18. General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit Party or any other Person against any Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, or any other Lender or the affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower, each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waive, release and agree not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in their favor and regardless of whether any Company, any Lender, Issuing Lender, or the Administrative Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss of damage.

109

Section 11.19. No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such Person may act) retained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the Borrower, any other Companies, or any other Person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. The Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons with regard to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged.

Section 11.20. Legal Representation of Parties. The Loan Documents were negotiated by the parties with the benefit of legal representation and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be construed or interpreted against any party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof or thereof.

Section 11.21. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINING A CONTRARY EXPRESS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISION) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS.

(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDER OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE BORROWER OR TO ENFORCE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN RESPECT OF COLLATERAL IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY THE BORROWER AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ISSUING LENDER OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDER OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH ANY LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK.

(c) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDER AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR

110

CONNECTED WITH ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER.

Section 11.22. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement;

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement;

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (i) clause (i) of Section 11.22(a) is true with respect to a Lender or (ii) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with clause (iv) of Section 11.22(a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

111

Section 11.23. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Section 11.24. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of a Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by a Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

112

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any Resolution Authority.

Section 11.25. Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Lender or other holder of any Obligations (each, a “Lender Party”) or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender Party (any such Lender Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”), that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not such error is known to any Payment Recipient) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Payment Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), if any Payment Recipient receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) that (x) is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error (in whole or in part):

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clause (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) in the case of immediately preceding clause (z), an error has been made, in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Payment Recipient shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.25(b).

(c) Each Lender Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under Section 11.25(a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

113

(d) An Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations, except to the extent such Erroneous Payment comprises funds received by the Administrative Agent from a Credit Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Payment Recipient hereby agrees not to assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine, with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment.

(f) Each party’s agreements under this Section 11.25 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Lender, the termination of the Commitments, or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of any or all Obligations.

Section 11.26. Amendment and Restatement; Agency Transfer; New Lenders.

(a) The parties to this Agreement agree that, upon (i) the execution and delivery by each of the parties hereto of this Agreement and (ii) satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business & Basis of Presentation The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and other recent filings with the SEC. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. The Company’s critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value MeasurementsAt both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $17 million of debt and equity securities that fund the deferred compensation plan and are classified in other non-current assets. The Company also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $17 million at both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which are included in other non-current liabilities. The majority of the debt and equity securities are Level 1 as they trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains/(losses) on the debt and equity securities offset those associated with the corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities.

Subsequent Event	Sep. 30, 2023
Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Event	Subsequent EventOn November 6, 2023, in light of the demand trajectory change in August, the Company initiated business restructuring actions which are expected to reduce 2024 operating expenses by approximately $50 million and accelerate gross margin initiatives, in addition to the approximate $80 million of operating expense reductions expected to be realized in 2023. These actions are broad-based and include a headcount reduction of approximately 10% or 500 team members across all areas of the organization, including in corporate and research and development functions. These actions also include a rationalization of the store portfolio with a planned closure of 40 to 50 stores by the end of 2024, a slower rate of new store openings and remodels, and a reduction of the Company's 2024 capital expenditures. Gross margin improvement actions include value engineering and cost optimization strategies, including driving additional efficiencies through the Company's manufacturing and home delivery network. These business restructuring actions are expected to result in up to $20 million of one-time costs, with an estimated $10 million of the costs being recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business & Basis of Presentation	Business & Basis of Presentation The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and other recent filings with the SEC.
Use of Estimates	The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. The Company’s critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.
Consolidation	The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Leases	The Company leases its retail, office and manufacturing space under operating leases which, in addition to the minimum lease payments, may require payment of a proportionate share of the real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses. While the Company’s local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given markets, the retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to 10 years. The Company’s office and manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to 15 years. In addition, the Company’s mall-based retail store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Company also leases vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to six years. The Company’s operating lease costs include facility, vehicle and equipment lease costs, but exclude variable lease costs. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, after consideration of rent escalations and rent holidays. The lease term for purposes of the calculation begins on the earlier of the lease commencement date or the date the Company takes possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that extend beyond the original lease term, the Company estimates straight-line rent expense based on current market conditions. Variable lease costs are recorded when it is probable the cost has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
