(b) Section 1.1 is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Applicable Margin” in its entirety to read as follows: “Applicable Margin” means, with respect to Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, the Commitment Fee and the L/C Fee, the rates per annum determined in accordance with Schedule 1C. (c) Section 2.2 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
2 Section 2.2 Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a “Revolving Loan” and collectively for all the Lenders the “Revolving Loans”) in U.S. Dollars to Borrower from time to time on a revolving basis up to the amount of (x) such Xxxxxx’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus (y) an amount equal to the Commitment Block multiplied by such Xxxxxx’s Revolver Percentage, subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, before the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments minus the Commitment Block, in each case, as in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages. As provided in Section 2.6(a), Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

Promptly upon receipt by Ultimate Parent or such Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied first to the outstanding Term Loans (to be applied to the remaining amortization payments on the Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity) until paid in full and then to the Revolving Credit with a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments until the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Lenders is reduced to $50,000,000 in the aggregate. Borrower acknowledges that its performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Lenders for any breach of Section 7.1 or Section 8.1(i) or any other terms of the Loan Documents. (e) Clause (iv) of Section 7.6 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: (iv) beginning after the Amendment Period End Date, the making of Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed in any fiscal year the greater of (x) $12,000,000 and (y) 17.5% of Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period, provided that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom and (B) Ultimate Parent shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.13 on a pro forma basis (as of the fiscal quarter then last ended for which financial statements have been delivered to Administrative Agent) after giving effect to such Restricted Payment (f) Section 7.13 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(c) Modified Leverage Ratio.

If the Loan Parties have not delivered the Ultimate Parent financial statements by the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 6.5, until such financial statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level VII shall apply (or after the Amendment Period End Date, Level V).

If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Ultimate Parent, Borrower or Administrative Agent determines that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by Administrative Agent (or, if any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(j) or (k) with respect to Borrower has occurred and is continuing, automatically and without further action by Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under any other provision of the Loan Documents. Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
