OIL-DRI CORPORATION OF AMERICA CREDIT AGREEMENT BMO Xxxxxx Bank N.A. Chicago, Illinois Ladies and Gentlemen: The undersigned, Oil-Dri Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), applies to you (the “Bank”) for your commitment, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and on the basis of the representations and warranties hereinafter set forth, to make a revolving credit (the “Revolving Credit”) available to the Company, all as more fully hereinafter set forth. SECTION 1. THE CREDITS. Section 1.1. Revolving Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Bank agrees to extend a Revolving Credit to the Company which may be availed of by the Company from time to time during the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, at which time the commitment of the Bank to extend credit under the Revolving Credit shall expire. The Revolving Credit may be utilized by the Company in the form of loans (individually a “Loan” and collectively the “Loans”) and Letters of Credit, provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding at any one time shall not exceed $45,000,000 (the “Revolving Credit Commitment”, as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof), and (b) as provided in Section 1.3(a), the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder shall not at any one time exceed the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000. Each Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $25,000; provided, however, that Loans which bear interest with reference to the Adjusted LIBORTerm SOFR or Offered Rate shall be in such greater amount as is required by Section 2 hereof. The Loans shall be made against and evidenced by a single promissory note of the Company in the form (with appropriate insertions) attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”) payable to the order of the Bank in the principal amount of $45,000,000. The Note shall be dated the date of issuance thereof and be expressed to bear interest as set forth in Section 2 hereof. The Note, and all Loans evidenced thereby, shall mature and be due and payable in full on the Termination Date. Without regard to the principal amount of the Note stated on its face, the actual principal amount at any time outstanding and owing by the Company on account of the Note shall be the sum of all Loans made under this Section less all payments of principal actually received by the Bank. During the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, the Company may use the Revolving Credit Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing Loans in whole or in part, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Section 1.2. Xxxxxx and Disbursement of Loans. The Company shall give written or telephonic notice to the Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if given by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing) by no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date the Company requests the Bank to make a Loan hereunder; provided, however, that

-2- telephonic notice may only be given by an Authorized Representative. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date of the Loan requested (which must be a Business Day) and (ii) and the amount of such Loan. The Company agrees that the Bank may rely upon any written or telephonic notice given by any person the Bank reasonably and in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation and, in the event any earlier telephonic notice conflicts with the later written confirmation, such notice shall govern if the Bank has acted in reasonable reliance thereon. Subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof, the proceeds of each Loan shall be made available to the Company at the principal office of the Bank in Chicago, Illinois, in immediately available funds. Each Loan shall initially constitute part of the Base Rate Portion except to the extent the Company has otherwise timely elected as provided in Section 2 hereof. Section 1.3. Letters of Credit. (a) General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Revolving Credit Commitment may be availed of by the Company in the form of standby letters of credit issued by the Bank for the account of the Company (individually a “Letter of Credit” and collectively the “Letters of Credit”), provided that the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit (including the Present Letters of Credit) issued and outstanding hereunder shall not at any one time exceed the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000. For purposes of this Agreement, a Letter of Credit shall be deemed outstanding as of any time in an amount equal to the maximum amount which could be drawn thereunder under any circumstances and over any period of time plus any unreimbursed drawings then outstanding with respect thereto. If and to the extent any Letter of Credit expires or otherwise terminates without having been drawn upon, the availability under the Commitment shall to such extent be reinstated. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Present Letters of Credit shall each constitute a “Letter of Credit” herein for all purposes of this Agreement to the same extent, and with the same force and effect as if such Letter of Credit had been issued at the request of the Company hereunder. (b) Term. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall expire not later than the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months from the date of issuance (or be cancelable not later than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance and each renewal) or (ii) 270 days after the Termination Date. On the Termination Date, the Company hereby agrees to pay to the Bank without notice or demand an amount equal to 103% of the Letters of Credit outstanding on such date (whether or not the relevant Letters of Credit have been drawn upon) which amount shall be held by the Bank as collateral security therefor ( and which cash collateral shall be accompanied by such security documents as are then required by the Bank in its reasonable discretion) or the Company shall provide a “back-up” letter of credit in a face amount equal to 103% of the Letters of Credit outstanding on such date and otherwise in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, satisfactory to the Bank in its reasonable discretion, as security for the repayment of any amounts owing with respect to the Letters of Credit. (c) General Characteristics. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be payable in U.S. Dollars or an Available Foreign Currency, conform to the general requirements of the Bank for the issuance of a standby letter of credit as to form and substance, and be a letter of credit which the Bank may lawfully issue.

-3- (d) Applications. At the time the Company requests each Letter of Credit to be issued (or prior to the first issuance of a Letter of Credit in the case of a continuing application), the Company shall execute and deliver to the Bank an application for such Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the Bank (individually an “Application” and collectively the “Applications”). Subject to the other provisions of this subsection, the obligation of the Company to reimburse the Bank for drawings under a Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Application for such Letter of Credit. In the event a drawing is paid on a Letter of Credit and the Company has not notified the Bank by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is paid that the Company intends to repay such reimbursement obligation with funds not borrowed under this Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably requested a Loan constituting a Base Rate Portion on such day in the amount of the reimbursement obligation then due, in each case subject to Section 6.1 hereof (other than the requirement that a Loan be in a certain minimum amount), which new Loan shall be applied to pay the reimbursement obligation then due. Anything contained in the Applications to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) in the event the Bank is not reimbursed by the Company (whether out of the proceeds of such a Loan or otherwise) for the amount the Bank pays on any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit issued hereunder by 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is paid, the obligation of the Company to reimburse the Bank for the amount of such drawing paid shall bear interest (which the Company hereby promises to pay on demand) from and after the date the drawing is paid until payment in full thereof at the fluctuating rate per annum determined by adding 2% to the Base Rate as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), (ii) the Company shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 3 hereof, and (iii) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default the Bank will not call for the funding of a Letter of Credit by the Company prior to being presented with a drawing thereunder. Section 1.4. Guaranties from Domestic Subsidiaries . Payment of the Obligations shall at all times be jointly and severally guaranteed by each Domestic Subsidiary pursuant hereto or pursuant to a Guaranty issued by such Domestic Subsidiary; provided, however, that no such guaranty shall be required from any Domestic Subsidiary which is an Inactive Subsidiary. In the event any Domestic Subsidiary is hereafter acquired or formed or any previously Inactive Domestic Subsidiary ceases to be Inactive, the Company shall also cause such Domestic Subsidiary to execute a Guaranty, together with such other instruments, documents, certificates and opinions required by the Bank in connection therewith. SECTION 2. INTEREST ON LOANS AND CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES. Section 2.1. Interest Rate Options on Loans. (a) Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2, portions of the principal indebtedness evidenced by the Note (all of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note bearing interest at the same rate for the same period of time being hereinafter referred to as a “Portion”) shall bear interest with reference to the Base Rate (the “Base Rate Portion”) or, at the option of the Company subject to the terms and conditions hereof, with reference to an Adjusted LIBORTerm SOFR (“LIBORSOFR Portions”) or with reference to an Offered Rate (“Offered Rate Portions”), and Portions may be converted from time to time from one basis to the other. All of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note which is not part of a Fixed Rate Portion shall constitute a single Base Rate Portion. All of the indebtedness evidenced by the

-4- Note which bears interest with reference to a particular Adjusted LIBORTerm SOFR for a particular Interest Period shall constitute a single LIBORSOFR Portion. All of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note which bears interest with reference to a particular Offered Rate for a particular Interest Period shall constitute a single Offered Rate Portion. There shall not be more than ten (10) Fixed Rate Portions applicable to the Note outstanding at any one time. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Bank to create, continue or effect by conversion any Fixed Rate Portion shall be conditioned upon the fact that at the time no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Company hereby promises to pay interest on each Portion at the rates and times specified in this Section 2. (b) Base Rate Portion. The Base Rate Portion shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time, provided that if the Base Rate Portion or any part thereof is not paid when due (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise), or at the election of the Bank upon notice to the Company during the existence of any other Event of Default, such Portion shall bear interest, whether before or after judgment, until payment in full thereof at the rate per annum determined by adding 2% to the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable thereto from time to time. Interest on the Base Rate Portion shall be payable quarter-annually on the last day of each March, June, September and December, in each year (commencing on the first such date occurring after the date hereof) and at maturity of the Note and interest after maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise) shall be due and payable upon demand. Any change in the interest rate on the Base Rate Portion resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall be effective on the date of the relevant change in the Base Rate. (c) LIBORSOFR Portions. Each LIBORSOFR Portion shall bear interest for each Interest Period selected therefor at a rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin to the Adjusted LIBORTerm SOFR for such Interest Period, provided that if any LIBORSOFR Portion is not paid when due (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise), or at the election of the Bank upon notice to the Company during the existence of any other Event of Default, such Portion shall bear interest, whether before or after judgment, until payment in full thereof through the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto at the rate per annum determined by adding 2% to the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable thereto, and effective at the end of such Interest Period such LIBORSOFR Portion shall automatically be converted into and added to the Base Rate Portion and shall thereafter bear interest at the interest rate applicable to the Base Rate Portion after default. Interest on each LIBORSOFR Portion shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, with respect to any Interest Period applicable to a LIBORSOFR Portion in excess of three (3) months, on the date occurring every three (3) months after the date such Interest Period began and at the end of such Interest Period, and interest after maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise) shall be due and payable upon demand. The Company shall notify the Bank on or before 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the third Business Day preceding the end of an Interest Period applicable to a LIBORSOFR Portion whether such LIBORSOFR Portion is to continue as a LIBORSOFR Portion, in which event the Company shall notify the Bank of the new Interest Period selected therefor, and in the event the Company shall fail to so notify the Bank, such LIBORSOFR Portion shall automatically be converted into and added to the Base Rate Portion as of and on the last day of such Interest Period.

-5- (d) Offered Rate Portions. Each Offered Rate Portion shall bear interest for the Interest Period selected therefor at the Offered Rate for such Interest Period, provided that if such Offered Rate Portion is not paid when due (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise), or at the election of the Bank upon notice to the Company during the existence of any other Event of Default, such Portion shall bear interest, whether before or after judgment, until payment in full thereof through the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto at the rate per annum determined by adding 2% to the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable thereto and effective at the end of such Interest Period such Offered Rate Portion shall automatically be converted into and added to the Base Rate Portion and shall thereafter bear interest at the interest rate applicable to the Base Rate Portion after default. Interest on each Offered Rate Portion shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and interest after maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise) shall be due and payable upon demand. The Company shall notify the Bank by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Business Day on which the Company requests that any Offered Rate Portion be created or that any part of the Base Rate Portion or any part of a LIBORSOFR Portion be converted into an Offered Rate Portion (each such notice to specify in each instance the amount thereof and the Interest Period selected therefor). Upon receipt of notice from the Bank of the Company’s request that an Offered Rate Portion be created or effected by conversion, the Bank shall in its discretion quote an interest rate to the Company at which the Bank would be willing to make the Offered Rate Portion available to the Company for such Interest Period. The Company understands and agrees that (i) the Bank has no obligation to quote Offered Rates or to make any Offered Rate Portion available to the Company, (ii) that the Bank may refuse to make any such Offered Rate Portion available to the Company after receiving a request therefor from the Company and (iii) that any such Offered Rate Portion made available to the Company shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as are mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Bank. If the Company accepts the Offered Rate so quoted by the Bank, then the Company shall be irrevocably committed to take the Offered Rate Portion on the date, in the amount and for the Interest Period requested by the Company and at the Offered Rate quoted by the Bank. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each interest rate quote is given for immediate acceptance, and if the Company does not so immediately accept the Offered Rate quoted on the terms and conditions specified by the Bank and in the amount and for the Interest Period requested by the Company, the offer to make such Offered Rate Portion shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and such Offered Rate Portion not created or effected by conversion, as the case may be. Section 2.2. Minimum Amounts; Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Minimum Amounts. Each LIBORSOFR Portion shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $50,000. Each Offered Rate Portion shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $50,000. (b) Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest on each Fixed Rate Portion and the Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. All interest on the Base Rate Portion and the commitment fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed.

-6- Section 2.3. Manner of Rate Selection. The Company shall notify the Bank by (i) 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date upon which the Company requests that any LIBORSOFR Portion be created or that any part of the Base Rate Portion or any part of an Offered Rate Portion be converted into a LIBORSOFR Portion (each such notice to specify in each instance the amount thereof and the Interest Period selected therefor) and (ii) 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date upon which the Company requests that any Offered Rate Portion be created or that any part of the Base Rate Portion or any part of a LIBORSOFR Portion be converted into an Offered Rate Portion (each such notice to specify in each instance the amount thereof and the Interest Period selected therefor). If any request is made to convert a Fixed Rate Portion into the Base Rate Portion, such conversion shall only be made so as to become effective as of the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. All requests for the creation, continuance and conversion of Portions under this Agreement shall be irrevocable.

SECTION 9. THE GUARANTEES. Section 9.1. The Guarantees. To induce the Bank to provide the credits described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to each Guarantor by reason of the commitments and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally to the Bank, and each other holder of any Obligations, the due and punctual payment of all present and future Obligations, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Note, the due and punctual payment of all obligations owing under the Applications, and the due and punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by the Company under the Loan Documents as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof; provided, however, that, with respect to any Guarantor, Obligations consisting of Hedging Liability guaranteed by such Guarantor shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations. In case of failure by the Company punctually to pay any indebtedness or other Obligations guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees jointly and severally to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company. Section 9.2. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor as a guarantor under this Section 9 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Company or of any other Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise; (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting, the Company, any other Guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Company or of any other Guarantor contained in any Loan Document;

-46- (d) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Bank or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith; (e) any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or Property; (f) any application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any obligation of the Company, regardless of what obligations of the Company remain unpaid; (g) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company or any other Guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Company or any other Guarantor of the principal of or interest on the Note or any other amount payable by it under the Loan Documents; or (h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Bank or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 9. Section 9.3. Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 9 shall remain in full force and effect until the commitments are terminated and the principal of and interest on the Note and all other amounts payable by the Company under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or of a Guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 9 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time. Section 9.4. Subrogation. Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall have been paid in full subsequent to the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and expiration of all Letters of Credit. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the Obligations under the Loan Documents and all other amounts payable by the Company hereunder and the other Loan Documents and (y) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and expiration of all Letters of Credit, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Bank (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to the Bank (and their Affiliates) or be credited and applied upon the Obligations under the Loan Documents, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

-47- Section 9.5. Waivers. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Bank or any other Person against the Company, another Guarantor or any other Person. Section 9.6. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right to recovery of the holders of the Obligations against each Guarantor under this Section 9 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder void or voidable under applicable law, including without limitation fraudulent conveyance law. Section 9.7. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Company under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall nonetheless be payable jointly and severally by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Bank. Section 9.8. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by the Company and each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until discharged in accordance with Section 9.3. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of the Company and each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS. Section 10.1. Holidays. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable. In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest. Section 10.2. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Bank or on the part of the holder of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of the Bank and of the holder of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise

-48- have. Section 10.3. Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by the Company therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank and the Company.

The Company further agrees to indemnify the Bank, and any security trustee, and their respective directors, officers and employees, against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the indemnified person is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any extension of credit made available hereunder, other than those which arise from a material breach of this Agreement by the party claiming indemnification or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party claiming indemnification. The Company, upon demand by the Bank at any time, shall reimburse the Bank for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing except if the same is directly due to a material breach of this Agreement by the party to be indemnified or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.
