Credit Agreement

The Company was a party to a Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 25, 2022 (the “Credit Agreement”), that provided for a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). On July 14, 2025, the Company entered into a Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent, and a syndicate of lenders party thereto. The facility under the New Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Facility”) matures on July 14, 2030; provided that if certain convertible debt that is permitted to be incurred under the New Credit Agreement, and is so incurred after the date of the New Credit Agreement, has a maturity date that is earlier than 91 days after the maturity date of the New Credit Facility and the aggregate amount of any such convertible debt that remains outstanding on the date that is 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of any such convertible debt (the “Springing Maturity Date”) exceeds $100.0 million, then the maturity date for the New Credit Facility shall automatically be modified to be the Springing Maturity Date. The Company’s obligations under the New Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), and are secured by first-priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors.

The New Credit Agreement provides for a revolving borrowing capacity of $375.0 million, and contains an uncommitted accordion feature that allows the Company to further increase its borrowing capacity by the greater of $140.0 million or by the Company’s EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (“Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility”) for the sum of the four most recently ended fiscal quarters, subject to certain conditions, depending on the mix of revolving loans and/or term loans under the incremental facility and subject to conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The New Credit Agreement requires that the Company does not exceed a maximum Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined therein) of 3.25:1.00, which may be increased under certain circumstances and is tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter. In addition, the New Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for a transaction of this type, including covenants that limit indebtedness, liens, asset sales, investments and restricted payments, in each case, subject to negotiated exceptions and baskets. The New Credit Agreement also contains representations, warranties and event of default provisions customary for a transaction of this type. The Company was in compliance with this requirement as of September 30, 2025 as the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio was 0.00:1.00.
Loans under the New Credit Facility will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at (i) Term SOFR, Eurocurrency Rate or Term CORRA plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum or (ii) the U.S. base rate or the Canadian prime rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% per annum, in each case depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio. In no event will Term SOFR, Eurocurrency Rate or Term CORRA be less than 0.00% per annum.

The Company incurred fees of approximately $2.2 million in connection with the New Credit Agreement, which are being amortized on a straight-basis over the term of the New Credit Agreement.
As of September 30, 2025, borrowings under the New Credit Facility were $29.0 million (December 31, 2024 — $37.0 million under the previous Credit Facility) and bore interest at Term SOFR, plus a margin of 1.75% per annum based on the Company’s total leverage ratio. The effective interest rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were 6.09% and 6.15%, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no letters of credit or advance payment guarantees outstanding under the Credit Facility.
