Mar. 31, 2023

In December 2022, the Company amended its existing credit facility under its amended and restated credit agreement entered into in August 2018 (the "2018 Credit Agreement”), which was comprised of a $680,000 term loan and a $500,000 revolving credit facility, and entered into the 2022 Credit Agreement, which is comprised of a $530,000 term loan and a $650,000 revolving credit facility. The 2022 Credit Agreement, which is guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, replaces the 2018 Credit Agreement. The obligations under the 2022 Credit Agreement are unsecured.

The outstanding balance of the term loan under the 2018 Credit Agreement as of the date of the 2022 Credit Agreement was $527,000. The revolving credit facility and the term loan have a term of five years and expire on December 13, 2027. The 2022 Credit Agreement did not result in a substantial modification of $290,870 of the outstanding term loan under the 2018 Credit Agreement. Further, as a result of the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company extinguished $236,130 of funding arrangements for the outstanding term loan under the 2018 Credit Agreement and obtained funding from new lenders of $239,130, resulting in outstanding principal of $530,000 of the term loan under the 2022 Credit Agreement.

In connection with the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company expensed $126, representing partial acceleration of the amortization of the existing unamortized debt issuance costs and an additional fee paid to the Company’s lenders related to the term loan. The overall borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility increased from $500,000 under the 2018 Credit Agreement to $650,000 under the 2022 Credit Agreement. In connection with the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company expensed $93 relating to existing unamortized debt issuance cost. The remaining unamortized costs and an additional third-party fee paid in connection with the 2022 Credit Agreement will be amortized over the term of the amended facility.

Borrowings under the 2022 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the election of the Company, either Adjusted Term SOFR (which is the rate per annum equal to (a) Term SOFR (the forward-looking secured overnight financing rate) plus (b) a Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10% per annum, but in no case lower than 0.00%) plus an applicable margin equal to 1.375% per annum or a base rate plus an applicable margin equal to 0.375% per annum, in each case subject to adjustment based on the Borrowers' debt ratings provided by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (the "Debt Ratings"). The revolving credit commitments under the 2022 Credit Agreement are subject to a commitment fee equal to 0.20% per annum, subject to adjustment based on the Debt Ratings. The commitment fee accrues on the actual daily amount by which the aggregate revolving commitments exceed the sum of outstanding revolving loans and letter of credit obligations.
