The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and restrictive covenants, and customary events of default. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and are secured by first priority liens. The Credit Agreement expires on February 18, 2027, or earlier at the Company’s discretion upon payment in full of loans and other obligations.
