Subsequent Event
In April 2026, the Company solicited consents from holders of its Senior Secured Notes and from the lenders under the credit agreement governing its Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) to approve certain amendments to the documents governing such indebtedness. Following receipt of the requisite consents, the Company entered into supplemental indentures with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Agreement to provide that the Merger will not constitute a change of control under such documents and to add or amend certain related defined terms. These supplemental indentures and the amendment are effective but will become operative only upon consummation of the Merger and will cease to be effective if the Merger is not completed.
