3.3 Interest Payments; PIK.

(a) The Company promises to pay accrued interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity provided that, so long as no Event of Default exists and is continuing, at the Company’s option and upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company may elect to defer until the Maturity Date payment of accrued and unpaid interest otherwise due and payable with respect to any Loan on the Interest Payment Election Date at a per annum rate of: (i) from the Closing Date through and including the first anniversary thereof, up to 5.0%, (ii) from the day after the first anniversary of the Closing Date through and including the second anniversary of the Closing Date, up to 4.0%, and (iii) from the day after the second anniversary of the Closing Date through and including the third anniversary of the Closing Date, up to 3.0% (such election to defer payment of accrued and unpaid interest as set forth in and pursuant to this sub-clause (a) being hereinafter referred to as the “Original PIK Option”).

(b) In addition to the Original PIK Option set forth in clause (a) above and commencing on the January 3, 2023 Interest Payment Date, in the event LIBOR or Term SOFR (as applicable) exceeds 1.5% during any Interest Period, and so long as no Event of Default exists and is continuing, at the Company’s option and upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company may elect to defer until the Maturity Date payment of accrued and unpaid interest otherwise due and payable with respect to any Loan on the Interest Payment Election Date at a per annum rate of 1.5% (such additional election to defer payment of accrued and unpaid interest as set forth in and pursuant to this clause (b) being hereinafter referred to as the “Fourth Amendment PIK Option”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Fourth Amendment PIK Option set forth in this clause (b) is in addition to the Original PIK Option set forth in clause (a) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent hereby acknowledges and consents to the application of the Fourth Amendment PIK Option to accrued and unpaid interest that was otherwise due and payable on the January 3, 2023 and February 1, 2023 Interest Payment Dates.

(c) All accrued and unpaid interest the payment of which is so deferred shall (i) be compounded and added to the unpaid principal balance of the applicable Loan on the applicable Interest Payment Date, (ii) itself accrue interest at the rate then applicable under Section 3.1 and (iii) be paid as otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement. After maturity, and at any time an Event of Default exists and is continuing, the Company promises to pay accrued interest on the applicable Loan on demand by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any cash interest paid by the Company in respect of Term Loan C prior to the date of any prepayment required by Section 6.2(b) of this Agreement shall reduce the final payment due on the Maturity Date of Term Loan C by such amount.

(d) By way of example on a given date for a given Interest Period when the Fourth Amendment PIK Option is available, if Term SOFR for such Interest Period shall be 4.60%, then the unpaid principal balance of a Loan shall accrue interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR (4.60% for the purposes of this example), plus, for the purposes hereof, 12.0% per annum. If the Company elects and successfully exercises both the Original PIK Option and the Fourth Amendment PIK Option, then interest on the applicable Loan shall be due and payable on the corresponding Interest Payment Date as follows: (1) 9.0% cash interest shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (2) 3.0% (representing the Original PIK Option) and an additional 1.5% (representing the Fourth Amendment PIK Option) in interest shall be deferred until the Maturity Date, and (3) 3.10% of additional cash interest shall be due and payable on the Interest Payment Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing example, deferred interest in Section (2) of the immediately preceding sentence shall (i) be compounded and added to the unpaid principal balance of the applicable Loan on the Interest Payment Date, (ii) accrue interest at the rate then applicable under Section 3.1, and (iii) be paid as otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Article III (Interest) is hereby amended by adding a new Section 3.6 thereto, to read as follows:

3.6 Inability to Determine Term SOFR; SOFR Benchmark Replacement.

(a) The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to Term SOFR or any replacement rate thereto, including whether the replacement rate will produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as the Term SOFR prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any conforming changes made to a replacement rate. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain Term SOFR or a replacement rate, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Loan Parties or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(b) If at any time Administrative Agent determines, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, that Term SOFR has ceased, will cease, or is not, or as of a specified future date, will not be, representative or in compliance with IOSCO Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then, at Administrative Agent’s option, Administrative Agent may establish a new index, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, which may be adjusted by Administrative Agent to include an different spread or margin (as so adjusted, the “Replacement Index”). Administrative Agent will notify the Company in writing (a “Transition Notice”) setting forth the Replacement Index, the new applicable rate, the date the same will become effective (the “Term SOFR Transition Date”) and the manner in which the applicable rate will be periodically reset (which shall be no less than once each month) based upon changes in the Replacement Index. The Term SOFR Transition Date will be no sooner than ten (10) days following the Transition Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless there is a Hedging Agreement in place in connection with this Agreement, if the Replacement Index is less than 3.5% per annum, then the Replacement Index shall be deemed to be 3.5% per annum

(f) Clause (a) of Section 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayments) is hereby amended by adding the following as a new sub-clause (v) thereto:

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the MEOA Merger closing does not occur prior to the MEOA Merger Outside Closing Date or the Waiver Conditions are not satisfied in Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, then nothing contained herein shall (i) be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Specified Defaults, each of which shall be deemed to remain in existence, or (ii) impair Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ ability to exercise all or any of their rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement and the other Loan Documents or otherwise under applicable law or in equity.

5. Conditions Precedent. This Amendment shall become effective, the consents described in Section 1 above, the amendments described in Sections 2 and 3 above, the waivers described in Section 4 above, shall commence upon receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence of satisfaction of each and every of the following items and conditions, as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion:

6. Amendment Fee, Costs, Expenses and Taxes. In consideration of Administrative Agent’s agreement to enter into this Amendment, and in addition to the payments of principal and interest required under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Loan Parties covenant and agree to pay to Administrative Agent a non-refundable amendment fee equal to $400,000 (the “Amendment Fee”), which Amendment Fee shall be additional interest that has accrued on, and shall be capitalized and added to the aggregate principal amount of, the Term Loan C outstanding as of the Fourth Amendment Closing Date. The Amendment Fee shall be fully earned on the Fourth Amendment Closing Date.

7. Representations, Warranties and Covenant of the Loan Parties. Each Loan Party hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lender, which representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery hereof, that on and as of the date hereof and after giving effect to this Amendment:

(a) each Loan Party has the corporate or limited liability company, as applicable, power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party (and perform its respective obligations hereunder and thereunder). This Amendment and the Transaction Documents to which such Loan Party is a party have been duly authorized by such Loan Party. This Amendment, the Transaction Documents to which such Loan Party is a party, the Credit Agreement and the Notes (as amended by this Amendment) each constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar law affecting creditor’s rights generally and general principles of equity;

(b) each Loan Party’s representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Notes and in the other Loan Documents are true, correct and complete in all material respects (or, if any such representation or warranty is by its terms qualified by concepts of materiality, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly related solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations were true, correct and complete in all material respects (or, if any such representation or warranty is by its terms qualified by concepts of materiality, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date;

(c) all Obligations now due or payable by any Loan Party to Lenders or Administrative Agent are unconditionally owing by such Loan Party to Lenders and Administrative Agent, without offset, defense or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever; and

(d) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing other than the Specified Defaults, and no “Default” or “Event of Default” shall have occurred and be continuing under the Loan Documents, as of the date hereof or shall occur immediately after giving effect to this Amendment.

Each Loan Party acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lenders are specifically relying upon the representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Amendment and that such representations, warranties and agreements constitute a material inducement to Administrative Agent and Lenders in entering into this Amendment.

8. Release by Loan Parties. In further consideration of the execution of this Amendment by Administrative Agent and Lenders, each Loan Party (on behalf of itself and its shareholders, directors, members, managers, partners, officers, affiliates, successors and assigns) hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably forever remises, releases, acquits, satisfies and forever discharges Administrative Agent and Lender and their respective successors, assigns, affiliates, parent entities, officers, employees, directors, shareholders, agents and attorneys (collectively, the “Releases”) from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, disputes, damages, suits, controversies, penalties, fees, costs, expenses, actions and causes of action (whether at law or in equity) and obligations of every nature whatsoever, whether liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent (all of the foregoing, “Claims”), that such Loan Party (or any of its respective shareholders, directors, members, managers, partners, officers, affiliates, successors or assigns) occurring on or before the date hereof, from any or all of the Releases, which arise from or relate to any actions, omissions, conditions, events, or any other circumstances whatsoever on or prior to the date hereof, including, without limitation, with respect to the Obligations, any Collateral, the Credit Agreement, the transactions relating thereto or hereto, and any other Loan Document, other than for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent as finally determined in a non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

9. Reference to Credit Agreement; No Waiver.

(a) References. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, (i) each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and (ii) each reference in each of the Notes to “this Note,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the respective Note, as amended hereby. The term “Loan Documents” as defined in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement shall include (in addition to the Loan Documents described in the Credit Agreement) this Amendment and the other Transaction Documents.

(b) No Waiver. The failure of Administrative Agent (or, as applicable, Lenders), at any time or times hereafter, to require strict performance by Loan Parties of any provision or term of the Credit Agreement, this Amendment or the other Loan Documents shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Administrative Agent (or, as applicable, Lenders) hereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver by Administrative Agent or Lenders of a breach of this Amendment or any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement shall not, except as expressly set forth herein or in any other writing signed by Administrative Agent, suspend, waive or affect any other breach of this Amendment or any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different kind or character. None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of the Loan Parties contained in this Amendment, shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Administrative Agent or Lenders unless such suspension or waiver is (i) in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and (ii) delivered to the Loan Parties. In no event shall Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ execution and delivery of this Amendment establish a course of dealing among Administrative Agent, Lenders, Loan Parties or any other obligor, or in any other way obligate Administrative Agent or Lenders to hereafter provide any amendments or waivers with respect to the Credit Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Amendment shall be limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed (x) to be a consent to any amendment or modification of any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement, the Notes or of any of the Loan Documents (except as expressly provided herein); or (y) to prejudice any right or remedy which Administrative Agent or any Lender may now have under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the Loan Documents. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the Loan Documents, or any Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the execution and delivery of this Amendment does not effectuate a novation of the liabilities and obligations of the Loan Parties to Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect to the Loans, but merely serves as a modification of certain terms thereof.

(c) Full Force and Effect. The Credit Agreement, the Notes and all of the other Loan Documents, in each case as amended hereby, shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

(d) Reaffirmation of Security Interest. Each Loan Party hereby ratifies and reaffirms any and all grants of Liens to Administrative Agent in, to and on the Collateral as security for the Obligations, and the Company acknowledges and confirms that the grants of the Liens to Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and Lenders in, to and on the Collateral: (i) represent continuing Liens on all of the Collateral, (ii) secure the indefeasible payment in full in cash all of the Obligations when due or declared due in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and (iii) represent valid and first priority perfected Liens on all of the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens).

10. Miscellaneous. Titles and headings herein are solely for the convenience of the parties and are without substantive legal meaning. This Amendment may only be amended or modified by a writing signed by Administrative Agent, Required Lenders and the Loan Parties. Neither this Amendment nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Administrative Agent or Lenders, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.

11. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, the Loan Parties may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Amendment without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

12. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in such a manner so as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Amendment is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Amendment.

13. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, admissible into evidence.

14. Facsimile. A signature hereto sent or delivered by facsimile or other electronic means shall be as legally binding and enforceable as a signed original for all purposes.

15. Governing Law. This Amendment and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Amendment or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

16. Jurisdiction. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF NEW YORK COUNTY, THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK; OR, IF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT INITIATES SUCH ACTION, IN ADDITION TO THE FOREGOING COURTS, ANY COURT IN WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL INITIATE OR TO WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL REMOVE SUCH ACTION, TO THE EXTENT SUCH COURT OTHERWISE HAS JURISDICTION. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS IN ADVANCE TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN OR REMOVED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ANY OF SUCH COURTS, HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS ISSUED THEREIN, AND HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH LOAN PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 15.3 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. EACH LOAN PARTY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY COURT HAVING SITUS IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM OR AN IMPROPER FORUM BASED ON LACK OF VENUE. SHOULD ANY LOAN PARTY, AFTER BEING SO SERVED, FAIL TO APPEAR OR ANSWER ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS SO SERVED WITHIN THE PERIOD OF TIME PRESCRIBED BY LAW AFTER THE MAILING THEREOF, SUCH LOAN PARTY SHALL BE DEEMED IN DEFAULT AND AN ORDER AND/OR JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AGAINST SUCH LOAN PARTY AS DEMANDED OR PRAYED FOR IN SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS. THE EXCLUSIVE CHOICE OF FORUM FOR THE LOAN PARTIES SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE ENFORCEMENT, BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN ANY OTHER FORUM OR THE TAKING, BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, OF ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE THE SAME IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION, AND EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO COLLATERALLY ATTACK ANY SUCH JUDGMENT OR ACTION.

17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
