•increasing the aggregate principal amount of commitments by $35 million, from $125 million to $160 million, which includes a $25 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and $25 million sublimit for swingline loans;
•permitting the Company to increase the aggregate principal amount of commitments by up to an additional $50 million, subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;
•extending the scheduled maturity date from July 9, 2026 to February 28, 2028;
•providing that borrowings bear interest at either (i) an annual rate equal to the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index Rate (the "BSBY Rate"), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.0% to 2.0% depending on specified leverage levels (the "Applicable Margin"), or (ii) at the Company's options, (x) a base rate as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement plus the Applicable Margin or (y) the BSBY Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and
•adjusting the annual commitment fee to an amount, dependent on the amount of debt outstanding, between 12.5 and 25 basis points of the unused portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, from an amount between 15 and 20 basis points of such amount under the 2021 Credit Agreement.
