The Credit Agreement provides for a $260.0 million unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that expires in March 2023 and includes, among other things, a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio covenant, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, and certain restrictions on liens, investments and other indebtedness. The Credit Facility includes a $30.0 million subfacility for the issuance of letters of credit, a $30.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $50.0 million sublimit for certain multicurrency borrowings. The Company may request an increase in revolving credit commitments under the facility of up to $150.0 million under certain circumstances. The Company will pay a facility fee of 0.25%-0.40%, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio, on the total commitments under the Credit Agreement and loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.25%-1.85%, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio. There are customary events of default under the Credit Agreement, including for a change of control of the Company and cross-defaults to certain other material indebtedness of the Company.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
