Commitment fees for unused Revolving Facility capacity are at a rate (also based on net total leverage) ranging from 0.150% to 0.300%.

The maturity date of the loans under the Senior Credit Facilities was extended to October 21, 2026.

Certain other changes were made to the terms of the Senior Credit Facilities, including changes providing greater flexibility to the Company with respect to certain covenants.
