RECITALS
Borrower and Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of April

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. The following defined terms in Section 1.01 of the Agreement hereby are amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
“Methane Leaks Detected Growth” means with respect to any calendar year, each daily full time equivalent on-site at a client facility performing leak detection and repair surveys, which shall include both EPA Method 21 as well as alternative work practice optical gas imaging work, multiplied by one hundred (100).
“Media Treated Margin Adjustment Amount” means (a) positive 2.5 basis points if the Media Treated Growth for such calendar year as set forth in the Sustainability Report is less than 91 for such calendar year, (b) zero basis points if the Media Treated Growth for such calendar year as set forth in the Sustainability Report is more than or equal to 91 for such calendar year but less than 107 for such calendar year, (c) negative 2.5 basis points if the Media Treated Growth for such calendar year as set forth in the Sustainability Report is more than or equal to 107 for such calendar year.
2. No course of dealing on the part of Administrative Agent, each Lender, or their officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Administrative Agent’s or any Xxxxxx’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of Administrative Agent or any Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Administrative Agent and the Required Xxxxxxx.
3. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.
4. Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
