RECITALS
A. The Borrowers, the Lenders, and Administrative Agent are parties to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 17, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) and certain other related Loan Documents, pursuant to which the Lenders provide the Borrowers a revolving credit facility with sub-facilities for letters of credit and swing line loans).
B. The parties hereto desire to amend the Credit Agreement: (i) to increase the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments from $50,000,000 to $75,000,000; (ii) to add KeyBank National Association “KeyBank”), by joinder, as a Lender under the Credit Agreement, with a Revolving Credit Commitment of $25,000,000; (iii) to permit the Borrowers to grant a subordinate purchase-money security interest to Merial LLC (“Merial”); and (iv) to make various technical corrections and other modifications, all as set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. All initially capitalized terms used in this Amendment (including in the recitals hereto) without definition shall have the respective meanings set forth for such terms in the Credit Agreement.
2. Addition of Definitions. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding therein new definitions of “First Amendment Effective Date” and “Refinanced Debt” as follows:

“Refinanced Debt” means Indebtedness that is the subject of a Permitted Refinancing.
3. Deletion of Cash Management Obligations Sublimit. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby further amended by amending and restating the definition of “Cash Management Obligations” so that it reads in full as follows (changes to the text are indicated with

If such interest rate shall cease to be available from the above-described Bloomberg report, the Eurodollar Rate shall be determined from such financial reporting service as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine and use with respect to its other loan facilities for which interest is determined based on the London interbank offered rate.
6. Amendment of Definition of Required Lenders. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby further amended by amending and restating the definition of “Required Lenders” so that it reads in full as follows (changes to the text are indicated with a strikethrough or in bold, italicized and underscored type):

B.
