"Company") entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with First
Citizens Bank (the "Bank") (the "Credit Agreement"), amending and restating that
certain Credit Agreement, dated September 24, 2019, between the Company and the

fund the consummation of the Acquisition (as defined below), and for general
working capital purposes, including those of MRC (as defined below).
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement: (A) the Term Loan (i) accrues interest at a
per annum rate equal to 2.75% above the one-month forward-looking term rate (the

Closing Date, in the case of the initial Term SOFR Rate, and, (b) thereafter,

adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a
change in government regulation; and (ii) and the Company shall make payments on
March 10th, June 10th, September 10th, and December 10th of each calendar year,
commencing on June 10, 2023, of principal plus accrued interest on the Term Loan
in amounts sufficient to fully amortize the Term Loan through February 28, 2028
(the "Term Loan Maturity Date"), with all principal and accrued interest on the
Term Loan being due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date; and (B)
outstanding advances under the Line of Credit ("Advances") will accrue interest
at the Applicable Rate, and commencing on April 1, 2023, and continuing on the
1st day of each calendar month thereafter until December 23, 2023, or the date
of the termination in whole of the Line of Credit as otherwise set forth in the
Amended and Restated Agreement (the "LOC Termination Date"), the Company shall
make payments of accrued interest on Advances, and all principal and accrued
interest on outstanding Advances shall be due and payable in full on the LOC
Termination Date. The Company may prepay amounts borrowed under the Loan, in
whole or in part with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the
amount prepaid, by written notice to Bank at least one business day prior to the
proposed prepayment.
The Agreement contains customary events of default (each an "Event of Default"),
which upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, among other things, interest
will accrue at the Applicable Rate plus 2% per annum, and the Bank may declare
all Obligations, with interest thereon, immediately due and payable. The Credit
Agreement further contains: (X) customary representations and warranties of the
Company; (Y) customary indemnification provisions whereby the Company will
indemnify Bank for certain losses arising out of inaccuracies in, or breaches
of, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, and certain
other matters; and (Z) customary affirmative and negative covenants, including,
without limitation, covenants: (i) to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) of net less than 1.25 to 1.00 as tested
quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis, starting with the fiscal quarter
ending March 31, 2023; (ii) to maintain a Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 2.50 to 1.00 as tested

leases and purchase money obligations for fixed assets less than $100,000
without the Bank's prior approval, and payable to trade creditors in the
ordinary course of business; (iv) not to undertake certain fundamental or
corporate changes; and (v) not to make certain Dispositions (as defined in the
Credit Agreement).
