First Advantage Holdings, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a party to a First Lien Credit Agreement (as amended, “2024 First Lien Credit Agreement”), which provided for a term loan of $2.185 billion due October 31, 2031 and a $250.0 million revolving credit facility due October 31, 2029.

On July 30, 2025, the Company amended its 2024 First Lien Credit Agreement (“2025 Amended First Lien Credit Agreement”) to reduce the interest rate on its term loan to a range of 2.50% to 2.75%, based on the first lien ratio, plus the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and an applicable margin (“First Lien Credit Facility”). The amendment also reduced the interest rate on its revolving credit facility to a range of 2.25% to 2.75%, based on the first lien ratio, plus SOFR (“Amended Revolver”). The Amended First Lien Credit Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1.00% of the principal amount. The Amended Revolver has no amortization.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company made aggregate voluntary principal prepayments of $50.0 million on its outstanding term loan. As a result of these prepayments, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million, related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. No prepayment penalties were incurred. In accordance with the terms of the 2025 Amended First Lien Credit Agreement, the voluntary prepayments reduced the remaining scheduled future principal repayment obligations on the term loan.

The 2025 First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default (including upon a change of control). The 2025 First Lien Credit Agreement also includes a “springing” first lien net leverage ratio test, applicable only to the Amended Revolver, that requires such ratio to be no greater than 7.75:1.00 on the last day of any fiscal quarter if more than 40.0% of the Amended Revolver is utilized on such date. As of June 30, 2026, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended Revolver and $2,064.5 million outstanding under the First Lien Credit Facility. In addition, $0.7 million in letters of credit were issued under the 2025 Amended First Lien Credit Agreement to support three office leases. As the Company had no outstanding amounts under the Amended Revolver, it was not subject to the consolidated first lien leverage ratio covenant. The Company was compliant with all covenants under the agreement as of June 30, 2026.
