Senior Secured Credit Facility

On July 21, 2021, the Company amended and restated its credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and various lenders party thereto (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”) to refinance its existing facility. The revised facility provides for a seven-year $460.0 million term loan facility which matures on July 21, 2028, and a $50.0 million revolving loan facility which matures and must be repaid on July 21, 2026, if any amounts are drawn.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility requires the Company to repay term loans at approximately $1.2 million per quarter. The Company is also required to repay the term loans and reduce revolving commitments with (i) 100% of proceeds of any incurrence of additional debt not permitted by the Senior Secured Credit Facility, (ii) 100% of proceeds of asset sales

and 100% of amounts recovered under insurance policies, subject to certain exceptions and a reinvestment right and (iii) 50% of Excess Cash Flow (or “ECF”) as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, at the end of the applicable fiscal year if RE/MAX, LLC’s Total Leverage Ratio (or “TLR”) as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, is in excess of 4.25:1. If the Company’s TLR as of the last day of such fiscal year is equal to or less than 4.25:1 but above 3.75:1, the repayment percentage is 25% of ECF and if the Company’s TLR as of the last day of such fiscal year is less than 3.75:1, no repayment from ECF is required. As of December 31, 2024, no ECF payment was required because the Company’s TLR was below 3.75:1.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility provides for customary restrictions on, among other things, additional indebtedness, liens, dispositions of property, dividends, share repurchases, other distributions, transactions with affiliates and fundamental changes such as mergers, consolidations, and liquidations. In general, the Company can make unlimited restricted payments – including dividends and share repurchases – if the Company’s TLR does not exceed 3.50:1 (both before and after giving effect to such payments). If the Company’s TLR exceeds 3.50:1, the Company will generally be limited in the amount of restricted payments it can make up to the greater of $50 million or 50% of RE/MAX LLC’s consolidated EBITDA on a trailing twelve-month basis (unless the Company relies on other restricted payment baskets available under the Senior Secured Credit Facility).

The Company calculates TLR quarterly and it is based on RE/MAX, LLC’s consolidated indebtedness and consolidated EBITDA on a trailing twelve-month basis, both defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. For the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2025, RE/MAX, LLC’s consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, was $97.0 million and as of June 30, 2025, the Company’s TLR was 3.58:1.

With certain exceptions, any default under any of the Company’s other agreements evidencing indebtedness in the amount of $15.0 million or more constitutes an event of default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the term loans and revolving loans accrue interest, at the Company’s option on (a) the adjusted forward-looking term rate based on the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Adjusted Term SOFR”), provided the Adjusted Term SOFR shall be no less than 0.50% plus an applicable margin of 2.50% or (b) the greatest of (i) the prime rate as quoted by the Wall Street Journal, (ii) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility) plus 0.50% and (iii) the one-month Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.00%, (such greatest rate, the “ABR”), provided the ABR shall be no less than 1.50%, plus in each case, an applicable margin of 1.50%. As of June 30, 2025, the interest rate on the term loan facility was 6.9%.

If any amounts are drawn on the $50 million revolving line of credit as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the terms of the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility require the Company’s TLR to not exceed 4.50:1 as of the last day of four consecutive fiscal quarters. As a result, as long as the Company’s TLR remains below 4.50:1, access to borrowings under the revolving line of credit will not be restricted. A commitment fee of 0.5% per annum (subject to reductions) accrues on the amount of unutilized revolving line of credit regardless of the Company’s TLR. As of the date of this report, no amounts were drawn on the revolving line of credit.
