The Revolving Facility also includes a subfacility with an available borrowing capacity of up to $50.0 million for short-term borrowings referred to as swingline loans.

The Amendment increases the maximum leverage ratio covenant and decreases the minimum fixed charge ratio covenant until January 30, 2026, or earlier at the Company’s option upon achieving certain financial covenant milestones (“Covenant Relief Period”). The Amendment also restricts the Company’s repurchase of shares of its common stock during the Covenant Relief Period and reduces the limits on certain additional liens and subsidiary debt the Company may incur during the Covenant Relief Period. Certain lenders under the Credit Agreement and their affiliates have, from time to time, provided investment banking, commercial banking, advisory and other services to the Company and/or its affiliates for which they have received customary fees and commissions, and such lenders and their affiliates may provide these services from time to time in the future.
