Long-Term Debt	5. Long-Term Debt Revolving Credit Facility On October 6, 2022, we entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement” and the revolving credit facility provided thereunder, the “Revolver Facility”). The Revolver Facility, which terminates on October 6, 2027, provides us with revolving loan commitments that total $400 million, of which $50 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit. The Revolver Facility contains a commitment increase feature that, subject to certain conditions precedent, could provide for an additional $200 million in revolving loan commitments. Our obligations under the Revolver Facility are unsecured. Certain of our material subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the Revolver Facility. As of December 31, 2024, we had net availability for borrowings of $256.5 million, based on a $110.0 million outstanding debt balance and $33.5 million in standby letters of credit under the Revolver Facility. In the first quarter of fiscal 2025 we repaid $110.0 million on the Revolver Facility. As of April 1, 2025, we had net availability for borrowings of $366.5 million, based on no outstanding debt balance and $33.5 million in standby letters of credit under the Revolver Facility. Under the Revolver Facility, we are subject to the following financial covenants as of the last day of each fiscal quarter: (i) a maximum ratio of net adjusted debt to EBITDAR (the “ Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio”) of 4.25 and (ii) a minimum ratio of EBITDAR to interest and rent expense (“EBITDAR Ratio”) of 1.90. The Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio includes a rental expense multiplier of six. As of April 1, 2025, we were in compliance with all the foregoing covenants in effect at that date. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s election, at a rate equal to either: (i) the sum of (A) adjusted term SOFR (as defined in the Loan Agreement, the “Term SOFR Rate”) plus (B) a rate variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%, or (ii) the sum of (A) the highest of (x) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in effect in the United States, (y) the greater of the rate calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as the federal funds effective rate or the rate that is published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as the overnight bank funding rate, in either case, plus 0.50%, and (z) the one-month Term SOFR Rate plus 1.00%, plus (B) a rate variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 0.00% to 0.75%. The Company will also pay a fee variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 0.125% to 0.25%, on the daily amount of unused commitments under the Loan Agreement. Letters of credit bear fees that are equivalent to the interest rate margin that is applicable to revolving loans that bear interest at the Term SOFR Rate plus other customary fees charged by the issuing bank. We paid certain customary loan origination fees in conjunction with the Loan Agreement. We are also subject to customary events of default that, if triggered, could result in acceleration of the maturity of the Revolver Facility. Subject to certain exceptions, the Revolver Facility also limits distributions with respect to our equity interests, such as cash dividends and share repurchases, based on a defined ratio, and sets forth negative covenants that restrict indebtedness, liens, investments, sales of assets, fundamental changes and other matters. 2030 Convertible Senior Notes On February 28, 2025, we issued $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (“2030 Notes”). The net proceeds from the sale of the 2030 Notes were approximately $558.5 million after deducting issuance costs of $16.5 million. The 2030 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2030 Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent we are not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of our subsidiaries. The 2030 Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “2030 Indenture”), dated as of February 28, 2025, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “2030 Note Trustee”). The 2030 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2025. The 2030 Notes will mature on March 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before November 15, 2029, noteholders will have the right to convert their 2030 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events, including but not limited to, the Company’s common stock trading above 130% of the conversion price for a specific period, the 2030 Notes per $1,000 in principal amount trading below 98% of the product of the trading price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate for a specific period, and certain fundamental changes to corporate structure. From and after November 15, 2029, noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. The kind and amount of consideration due upon conversion will be determined based on the conversion value of the 2030 Notes, measured proportionately for each trading day in an “Observation Period” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) consisting of 35 trading days, and settled following the completion of that Observation Period. The consideration due in respect of each trading day in the Observation Period will consist of cash, up to at least the proportional amount of the principal amount being converted, and any excess of the proportional conversion value for that trading day that will not be settled in cash will be settled in shares of our common stock. The initial conversion rate is 14.1377 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $70.73 per share of our common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, but will not be adjusted for regular quarterly dividends that do not exceed the dividend threshold (initially equal to $0.27 per share of common stock as defined in the 2030 Indenture). In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of April 1, 2025, the conversion rate for the 2030 Notes was 14.1377 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $70.73 per share of common stock. The 2030 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028 and on or before the 35th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if (i) the notes are “Freely Tradable” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture), and all accrued and unpaid additional interest, if any, has been paid in full, as of the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (1) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send such redemption notice; and (2) the trading day immediately before the date we send such redemption notice. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes unless at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send the related redemption notice. The redemption price will be a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling any 2030 Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that 2030 Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that 2030 Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require us to repurchase their 2030 Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving us and certain de-listing events with respect to our common stock. The 2030 Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the 2030 Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the 2030 Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) our failure to send certain notices under the 2030 Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) our failure to comply with certain covenants in the 2030 Indenture relating to our ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of our assets and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by us in our other obligations or agreements under the 2030 Indenture or the 2030 Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the 2030 Indenture; (v) certain defaults by us or any of our significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20.0 million; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against us or any of our significant subsidiaries for the payment of at least $50.0 million, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving us or our significant subsidiaries. If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us (and not solely with respect to our significant subsidiary) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2030 Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the 2030 Note Trustee, by notice to us, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes then outstanding, by notice to us and the 2030 Note Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2030 Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the 2030 Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the 2030 Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the 2030 Notes. As of April 1, 2025, the 2030 Notes had a gross principal balance of $575.0 million and a balance of $558.8 million, net of unamortized issuance costs of $16.2 million. Total amortization expense was $0.3 million during the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2025. The effective interest rate for the 2030 Notes was 2.57% as of April 1, 2025. 2026 Convertible Senior Notes On June 15, 2021, we issued $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (“2026 Notes”). The net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes were approximately $334.9 million after deducting issuance costs of $10.1 million. On February 28, 2025, we used part of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2030 Notes to repurchase approximately $276.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes in a privately-negotiated transaction for aggregate consideration of $289.8 million (the “2026 Note Repurchase Transaction”). The 2026 Note Repurchase Transaction was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The 2026 Note Repurchase Transactions resulted in a $15.9 million loss on early debt extinguishment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, of which $2.1 million consisted of unamortized issuance costs. The 2026 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2026 Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent we are not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of our subsidiaries. The 2026 Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) between us and a trustee (“2026 Note Trustee”), dated as of June 15, 2021, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture,” and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “2026 Indenture”), dated as of June 15, 2021, between the Company and the 2026 Note Trustee. The 2026 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 0.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2021. The 2026 Notes will mature on June 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before February 17, 2026, noteholders will have the right to convert their 2026 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after February 17, 2026, noteholders may convert their 2026 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. However, upon conversion of any 2026 Notes, the conversion value, which will be determined over an “Observation Period” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) consisting of 30 trading days, will be paid in cash up to at least the principal amount of the Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate is 12.7551 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $78.40 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of April 1, 2025, the conversion rate for the 2026 Notes was 13.9491 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $71.69 per share of common stock. In connection with the cash dividend that was declared by our Board of Directors ("Board") on April 24, 2025, on May 14, 2025 we will adjust the conversion rate (which is expected to increase) and the conversion price (which is expected to decrease) of the 2026 Notes in accordance with the terms. The 2026 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 20, 2024 and on or before the 30th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date we send such notice. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes unless at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send the related redemption notice. In addition, calling any Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that 2026 Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that 2026 Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require us to repurchase their 2026 Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving us and certain de-listing events with respect to our common stock. The 2026 Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the 2026 Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the 2026 Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) our failure to send certain notices under the 2026 Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) our failure to comply with certain covenants in the Indenture relating to our ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of our assets and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by us in our other obligations or agreements under the 2026 Indenture or the 2026 Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the 2026 Indenture; (v) certain defaults by us or any of our significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20,000,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against us or any of our significant subsidiaries for the payment of at least $25,000,000, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving us or any of our significant subsidiaries. If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of ours) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the 2026 Note Trustee, by notice to us, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes then outstanding, by notice to us and the 2026 Note Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the 2026 Note Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes. As of April 1, 2025, the 2026 Notes had a gross principal balance of $69.0 million and a balance of $68.5 million, net of unamortized issuance costs of $0.5 million. Total amortization expense was $0.4 million and $0.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, respectively. The effective interest rate for the 2026 Notes was 0.96% as of April 1, 2025.

Revolving Credit Facility

On October 6, 2022, we entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement” and the revolving credit facility provided thereunder, the “Revolver Facility”). The Revolver Facility, which terminates on October 6, 2027, provides us with revolving loan commitments that total $400 million, of which $50 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit. The Revolver Facility contains a commitment increase feature that, subject to certain conditions precedent, could provide for an additional $200 million in revolving loan commitments. Our obligations under the Revolver Facility are unsecured. Certain of our material subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the Revolver Facility.

As of December 31, 2024, we had net availability for borrowings of $256.5 million, based on a $110.0 million outstanding debt balance and $33.5 million in standby letters of credit under the Revolver Facility. In the first quarter of fiscal 2025 we repaid $110.0 million on the Revolver Facility. As of April 1, 2025, we had net availability for borrowings of $366.5 million, based on no outstanding debt balance and $33.5 million in standby letters of credit under the Revolver Facility.

Under the Revolver Facility, we are subject to the following financial covenants as of the last day of each fiscal quarter: (i) a maximum ratio of net adjusted debt to EBITDAR (the “ Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio”) of 4.25 and (ii) a minimum ratio of EBITDAR to interest and rent expense (“EBITDAR Ratio”) of 1.90. The Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio includes a rental expense multiplier of six. As of April 1, 2025, we were in compliance with all the foregoing covenants in effect at that date.

Borrowings under the Loan Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s election, at a rate equal to either: (i) the sum of (A) adjusted term SOFR (as defined in the Loan Agreement, the “Term SOFR Rate”) plus (B) a rate variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%, or (ii) the sum of (A) the highest of (x) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in effect in the United States, (y) the greater of the rate calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as the federal funds effective rate or the rate that is published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as the overnight bank funding rate, in either case, plus 0.50%, and (z) the one-month Term SOFR Rate plus 1.00%, plus (B) a rate variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 0.00% to 0.75%. The Company will also pay a fee variable based on the Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio, ranging from 0.125% to 0.25%, on the daily amount of unused commitments under the Loan Agreement. Letters of credit bear fees that are equivalent to the interest rate margin that is applicable to revolving loans that bear interest at the Term SOFR Rate plus other customary fees charged by the issuing bank. We paid certain customary loan origination fees in conjunction with the Loan Agreement.

We are also subject to customary events of default that, if triggered, could result in acceleration of the maturity of the Revolver Facility. Subject to certain exceptions, the Revolver Facility also limits distributions with respect to our equity interests, such as cash dividends and share repurchases, based on a defined ratio, and sets forth negative covenants that restrict indebtedness, liens, investments, sales of assets, fundamental changes and other matters.

2030 Convertible Senior Notes

On February 28, 2025, we issued $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (“2030 Notes”). The net proceeds from the sale of the 2030 Notes were approximately $558.5 million after deducting issuance costs of $16.5 million.

The 2030 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2030 Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent we are not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of our subsidiaries. The 2030 Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “2030 Indenture”), dated as of February 28, 2025, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “2030 Note Trustee”).

The 2030 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2025. The 2030 Notes will mature on March 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before November 15, 2029, noteholders will have the right to convert their 2030 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events, including but not limited to, the Company’s common stock trading above 130% of the conversion price for a specific period, the 2030 Notes per $1,000 in principal amount trading below 98% of the product of the trading price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate for a specific period, and certain fundamental changes to corporate structure. From and after November 15, 2029, noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. The kind and amount of consideration due upon conversion will be determined based on the conversion value of the 2030 Notes, measured proportionately for each trading day in an “Observation Period” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) consisting of 35 trading days, and settled following the completion of that Observation Period. The consideration due in respect of each trading day in the Observation Period will consist of cash, up to at least the proportional amount of the principal amount being converted, and any excess of the proportional conversion value for that trading day that will not be settled in cash will be settled in shares of our common stock. The initial conversion rate is 14.1377 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $70.73 per share of our common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, but will not be adjusted for regular quarterly dividends that do not exceed the dividend threshold (initially equal to $0.27 per share of common stock as defined in the 2030 Indenture). In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of April 1, 2025, the conversion rate for the 2030 Notes was 14.1377 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $70.73 per share of common stock.

The 2030 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028 and on or before the 35th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if (i) the notes are “Freely Tradable” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture), and all accrued and unpaid additional interest, if any, has been paid in full, as of the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (1) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send such redemption notice; and (2) the trading day immediately before the date we send such redemption notice. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes unless at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send the related redemption notice. The redemption price will be a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling any 2030 Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that 2030 Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that 2030 Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require us to repurchase their 2030 Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving us and certain de-listing events with respect to our common stock.

The 2030 Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the 2030 Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the 2030 Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the 2030 Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) our failure to send certain notices under the 2030 Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) our failure to comply with certain covenants in the 2030 Indenture relating to our ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of our assets and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by us in our other obligations or agreements under the 2030 Indenture or the 2030 Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the 2030 Indenture; (v) certain defaults by us or any of our significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20.0 million; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against us or any of our significant subsidiaries for the payment of at least $50.0 million, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving us or our significant subsidiaries.

If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us (and not solely with respect to our significant subsidiary) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2030 Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the 2030 Note Trustee, by notice to us, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes then outstanding, by notice to us and the 2030 Note Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2030 Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the 2030 Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the 2030 Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the 2030 Notes.

As of April 1, 2025, the 2030 Notes had a gross principal balance of $575.0 million and a balance of $558.8 million, net of unamortized issuance costs of $16.2 million. Total amortization expense was $0.3 million during the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2025. The effective interest rate for the 2030 Notes was 2.57% as of April 1, 2025.

2026 Convertible Senior Notes

On June 15, 2021, we issued $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (“2026 Notes”). The net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes were approximately $334.9 million after deducting issuance costs of $10.1 million. On February 28, 2025, we used part of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2030 Notes to repurchase approximately $276.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes in a privately-negotiated transaction for aggregate consideration of $289.8 million (the “2026 Note Repurchase Transaction”). The 2026 Note Repurchase Transaction was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The 2026 Note Repurchase Transactions resulted in a $15.9 million loss on early debt extinguishment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, of which $2.1 million consisted of unamortized issuance costs.

The 2026 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2026 Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent we are not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of our subsidiaries. The 2026 Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) between us and a trustee (“2026 Note Trustee”), dated as of June 15, 2021, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture,” and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “2026 Indenture”), dated as of June 15, 2021, between the Company and the 2026 Note Trustee.

The 2026 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 0.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2021. The 2026 Notes will mature on June 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before February 17, 2026, noteholders will have the right to convert their 2026 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after February 17, 2026, noteholders may convert their 2026 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. However, upon conversion of any 2026 Notes, the conversion value, which will be determined over an “Observation Period” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) consisting of 30 trading days, will be paid in cash up to at least the principal amount of the Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate is 12.7551 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $78.40 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of April 1, 2025, the conversion rate for the 2026 Notes was 13.9491 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $71.69 per share of common stock. In connection with the cash dividend that was declared by our Board of Directors ("Board") on April 24, 2025, on May 14, 2025 we will adjust the conversion rate (which is expected to increase) and the conversion price (which is expected to decrease) of the 2026 Notes in accordance with the terms.

The 2026 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 20, 2024 and on or before the 30th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date we send such notice. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes unless at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send the related redemption notice. In addition, calling any Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that 2026 Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that 2026 Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require us to repurchase their 2026 Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving us and certain de-listing events with respect to our common stock.

The 2026 Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the 2026 Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the 2026 Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) our failure to send certain notices under the 2026 Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) our failure to comply with certain covenants in the Indenture relating to our ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of our assets and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by us in our other obligations or agreements under the 2026 Indenture or the 2026 Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the 2026 Indenture; (v) certain defaults by us or any of our significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20,000,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against us or any of our significant subsidiaries for the payment of at least $25,000,000, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving us or any of our significant subsidiaries.

If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of ours) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the 2026 Note Trustee, by notice to us, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes then outstanding, by notice to us and the 2026 Note Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the 2026 Note Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes.

As of April 1, 2025, the 2026 Notes had a gross principal balance of $69.0 million and a balance of $68.5 million, net of unamortized issuance costs of $0.5 million. Total amortization expense was $0.4 million and $0.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, respectively. The effective interest rate for the 2026 Notes was 0.96% as of April 1, 2025.
