2.1. The following definitions in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
““Applicable Rate” means (a) at any time the NAV Coverage Condition is in effect, (x) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR plus 200 basis points (2.00%), and (y) with respect to Prime Rate Loans, the Prime Rate in effect from day to day less 90 basis points (0.90%) (provided that solely for the purpose of this subsection (a), such rates provided for in this subsection (a) will not take effect until the NAV Coverage Condition is in effect for twelve (12) consecutive Business Days, and (b) otherwise, (x) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR plus 170 basis points (1.70%), and (y) with respect to Prime Rate Loans, the Prime Rate in effect from day to day less 120 basis points (1.20%); provided that, in each case, in the event such rate of interest is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Credit Agreement.”

““Stated Maturity Date” means February 4, 2022, subject to Borrowers’ extension of such date under Section 2.8.”
““Unused Commitment Fee” means a fee equal to 25 basis points (0.25%) per annum of the average unused portion of the Commitments, as determined by Administrative Agent. The unused portion of the Commitments, for purposes of this definition, shall equal the difference between (x) the Commitments (as they may be reduced or increased from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Credit Agreement) and (y) the average for the period of the daily closing balance of Loans outstanding.
2.2. Section 2.8(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“(d) within five (5) Business Days of the applicable Borrowers’ receipt of the Extension Notice, such Borrowers shall pay an extension fee to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in an amount equal to 25 basis points (0.25%) of each such Lender’s Commitment as of the date on which such Borrowers receive such Extension Notice.”
2.3. Section 3.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“3.6. Increase in the Maximum Commitment Provided there exists no Event of Default or, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Administrative Agent, Potential Default on the effective date of the increase, and subject to compliance with the terms below, upon written notice to Administrative Agent, Borrowers may request the Lenders to increase the Maximum Commitment. Such increase shall be effective upon the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (a) the existing Lenders shall have agreed in their sole discretion to increase their Commitments and/or additional Persons shall have agreed to join the Credit Facility as Lenders such that the Commitments of all Lenders equal the increased Maximum Commitment; (b) on or prior to the proposed date of such increase, Borrowers shall have paid to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Lender that increases its Commitment or provides a new Commitment, a fee in an amount equal to 25 basis points (0.25%) of such increased or new Commitment; and (c) Borrowers shall provide Administrative Agent such evidence of their power and authority to effectuate such increase as Administrative Agent may reasonably request. For the avoidance of doubt, such increase will be on the same terms as contained herein with respect to the Commitments and the Loans. No Lender will be required to commit, nor shall any Lender have any preemptive right, to provide any portion of such increase. On any date the Maximum Commitment is increased in accordance herewith, Borrowers and the Lenders agree to execute such documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to give effect to such increase.”
