SECOND AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT
SECOND AMENDMENT, dated as of May 6, 2020 (this “Second Amendment”), to the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 16, 2017 (as amended by that certain Augmenting Lender Supplement dated as of October 26, 2018, that certain First Amendment dated as of December 21, 2018, and as further amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among RADIAN GROUP INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each of the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually, each a “Lender”), ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”) and an LC Issuer, and the other agents and arrangers party thereto.
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to the amendments to the Credit Agreement provided for herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the material agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Second Amendment but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.
Section 2. Amendments. Effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a) The definition for “Facility Termination Date” shall be replaced in its entirety with: “Facility Termination Date” means January 18, 2022 or any earlier date on which the Aggregate Commitment is reduced to zero or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms hereof.
(b) The definition for “Eurocurrency Base Rate” shall be replaced in its entirety with: “Eurocurrency Base Rate” means, with respect to a Eurocurrency Advance for the relevant Interest Period, the greater of (a) zero percent (0.0%) and (b) the applicable interest settlement rate for deposits in Dollars administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate) appearing on the applicable Reuters Screen (or on any successor or substitute page on such screen) as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Quotation Date for such Interest Period, and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period; provided that, if the applicable Reuters Screen (or any successor or substitute page) is not publicly available for any reason, the applicable Eurocurrency Base Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall instead be the applicable interest settlement rate for deposits in Dollars administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate) as reported by any other generally recognized financial information service selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Quotation Date for such Interest Period, and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period; provided that, if no such interest settlement rate administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate) is publicly available, the applicable Eurocurrency Base Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall instead be the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the rate at which RBC or one of its Affiliate banks offers to place deposits in Dollars with first-class banks in the interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period, in the approximate amount of RBC’s relevant Eurocurrency Loan and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent (i) determines that the interest settlement rate for deposits in Dollars

administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate) or any other generally recognized financial information service selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion is not publicly available and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) determines that the circumstances described in the preceeding clause (i) of this sentence has not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans or (iii) new syndicated loans have started to adopt a new benchmark interest rate, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Base Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable, provided that to the extent that the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market convention is not administratively feasible or that no market convention for the administration of such alternate rate of interest exists, the Administrative Agent shall administer such alternate rate of interest in a manner determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. If a notice of an alternate rate of interest has been given and no such alternate rate of interest has been determined, and (x) the circumstances under clause (i) or (iii) above exist or (y) the specific date referred to in clause (ii) has occurred (as applicable), Alternate Base Rate shall apply without regard to clause (c) of the definition thereof. Provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.
Section 3. Condition Precedent to Effectiveness. This Second Amendment shall become effective on the date that each of the following conditions precedent is satisfied or waived in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Credit Agreement (such date, the “Second Amendment Effective Date”):

(b) Enforceability. This Second Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party party hereto and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.
(c) No Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(d) Credit Agreement and Guaranty Representations.

(c) The provisions of this Second Amendment shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted by the Credit Agreement.
