Eighth Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement

On June 10, 2025, we entered into an eighth amended and restated senior credit agreement consisting of: (a) a $100.0 million term loan facility and (b) a $650.0 million revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility will terminate and the loans outstanding under the term loan facility will expire on June 10, 2030. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments increasing over the term of the facility. During the second quarter of 2025 we made a $15.0 million prepayment on the term loan facility resulting in the elimination of such quarterly payments until March 2028. Proceeds from the term loan facility and borrowings under the revolving credit facility were used to repay the then existing senior credit agreement. Interest rates are at the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") (4.375% at June 30, 2025) plus an interest rate margin of 1.125% (5.50% at June 30, 2025). For borrowings where we elect to use the alternate base rate, the initial base rate is the greatest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the New York Federal Reserve Bank Rate plus 0.50% or (iii) the one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00%, plus, in each case, an interest rate margin.

There were $85.0 million in borrowings outstanding on the term loan facility as of June 30, 2025. There were $4.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2025. Our available borrowings on the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2025 were $644.4 million with approximately $1.6 million of the facility set aside for outstanding letters of credit. The carrying amounts of the term loan and revolving credit facility approximate fair value.
    
The eighth amended and restated senior credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of our personal property and assets. The eighth amended and restated senior credit agreement contains covenants and restrictions which, among other things, require the maintenance of certain financial ratios and restrict dividend payments and the incurrence of certain indebtedness and other activities, including acquisitions and dispositions. We were in full compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of June 30, 2025. We are also required, under certain circumstances, to make mandatory prepayments from net cash proceeds from any issuance of equity and asset sales.
2.250% Convertible Notes

On June 6, 2022, we issued $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.250% Convertible Notes due 2027 (the "2.250% Notes"). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2022. The 2.250% Notes will mature on June 15, 2027, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The 2.250% Notes represent subordinated unsecured obligations and are convertible under certain circumstances, as defined in the indenture, into a combination of cash and CONMED common stock, with the principal required to be paid in cash. The 2.250% Notes may be converted at an initial conversion rate of 6.8810 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2.250% Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $145.33 per share of common stock). Holders of the 2.250% Notes may convert the 2.250% Notes at their option at any time on or after March 15, 2027 through the second scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date. Holders of the 2.250% Notes will also have the right to convert the 2.250% Notes prior to March 15, 2027, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The conversion rate is subject to anti-dilution adjustments if certain events occur. A portion of these proceeds were used to repurchase and extinguish a portion of our then-outstanding 2.625% Convertible Notes (the "2.625% Notes"), pay off our then outstanding balance on our revolving line of credit, pay down of $90.0 million of our term loan and partially pay for the In2Bones acquisition. In addition, approximately $115.6 million of the proceeds were used to pay the cost of certain convertible notes hedge transactions related to the 2.250% Notes.

For both the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we have recorded interest expense on the 2.250% Notes of $4.5 million, and for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we have recorded interest expense on the 2.250% Notes of $9.0 million, at the contractual coupon rate of 2.250%

The estimated fair value of the 2.250% Notes was approximately $758.8 million as of June 30, 2025 based on a market approach which represents a Level 2 valuation in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value was determined based on the estimated or actual bids and offers of the 2.250% Notes in an over-the-counter market transaction on the last business day of the period.

Convertible Notes Hedge Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2.250% Notes, we entered into convertible notes hedge transactions with a number of financial institutions (each, an “option counterparty”). The convertible notes hedge transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2.250% Notes, the number of shares of our common stock underlying the 2.250% Notes. Concurrent with entering into the convertible notes hedge transactions, we also entered into separate warrant transactions with each option counterparty whereby we sold to such option counterparty warrants to purchase, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the same number of shares of our common stock.

The convertible notes hedge transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the 2.250% Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2.250% Notes, as the case may be, in the event that the market price per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the convertible notes hedge transactions, is greater than the strike price of the convertible notes hedge transactions, which initially corresponds to the conversion price of the 2.250% Notes and is subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion rate of the 2.250% Notes. If, however, the market price per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the warrant transactions, exceeds the strike price ($251.53) of the warrants, there would nevertheless be dilution to the extent that such market price exceeds the strike price of the warrants, unless we elect to settle the warrants in cash.
