The Borrower, the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders are parties to a Term Loan and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which the Lenders provided the Borrower with certain financial accommodations.
The Borrower has requested that the Lenders amend the Term Loan Agreement, all on the terms hereafter set forth, and Lenders are willing to do so on the terms and conditions hereafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of any loan or advance or grant of credit heretofore or hereafter made to or for the account of the Borrower under the Term Loan Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Term Loan Agreement.
2. Amendments.
(a) The definition of “Applicable Margin” appearing in Section 1.1 of the Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as set forth below:
““Applicable Margin” means a percentage per annum equal to (x) at all times prior to the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, in the case of Term Loans maintained as (A) Base Rate Loans, 2.50%, and (B) Eurodollar Rate Loans, 3.50%, (y) at all times on and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date and until the first Business Day that immediately follows the date on which a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(d) in respect of the fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2021, in the case of Term Loans maintained as (A) Base Rate Loans, 3.25%, and (B) Eurodollar Rate Loans, 4.25% and (z) thereafter, the applicable percentage per annum set forth below, as determined by reference to the Secured Leverage Ratio, as set forth in the most recent Compliance Certificate received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.1(d):
Pricing Level | Secured Leverage Ratio | Eurodollar Rate Loans | Base Rate Loans |
1 | > 4.50 to 1.00 | 4.25% | 3.25% |
Pricing Level | Secured Leverage Ratio | Eurodollar Rate Loans | Base Rate Loans |
2 | <
4.50 to 1.00 but > 4.00 to 1.00 |
4.00% | 3.00% |
3 | < 4.00 to 1.00 | 3.75% | 2.75% |
Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Secured Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(d); provided, however, that “Pricing Level 1” for the table set forth above shall apply without regard to the Secured Leverage Ratio at any time after the date on which any annual or quarterly financial statement was required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(b) or Section 5.1(c) but was not delivered (or the Compliance Certificate related to such financial statements was required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(d) but was not delivered), commencing with the first Business Day immediately following such date and continuing until the first Business Day immediately following the date on which such financial statements (or, if later, the Compliance Certificate related to such financial statements) are delivered. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the Borrower’s financial statements or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Secured Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of such ratio would have resulted in higher interest for any period, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and with any such demand by the Administrative Agent being excused), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest actually paid for such period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) to the extent required by Section 2.23(b) in connection with any Incremental Term Facility, each of the Applicable Margins shall be increased as required by Section 2.23(b), and (ii) from and after the Extension, with respect to any Extended Loans, the Applicable Margins specified for such Extended Loans shall be those specified in the applicable definitive documentation thereof.”
(b) The definition of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” set forth in Section 1.1 of the Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the last sentence thereof to read in its entirety as set forth below:

2
(c) The definition of “Consolidated Net Income” set forth in Section 1.1 of the Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following sentence at the end thereof:
