The Company's long-term debt financing is comprised of certain senior unsecured notes issued to insurance companies in private placement transactions pursuant to note purchase agreements (the “Note Purchase Agreements”), totaling $313,325,000 as of March 31, 2026. These notes are denominated in U.S. dollars and have fixed interest rates ranging from 2.30 percent to 6.17 percent. The notes had original maturities of seven to 12 years with mandatory principal payments beginning four, five and six years after issuance. The Company will be required to make principal payments on the currently outstanding notes from 2026 to 2033.

The Company’s credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of banks provides for credit facilities in an initial aggregate principal amount of $450,000,000, consisting of (a) a $350,000,000 multi-currency revolving credit facility and (b) a $100,000,000 delayed draw term loan credit facility, each of which matures on June 24, 2027. The Company's credit agreement with Credit Industriel et Commercial NY (the CIC Credit Agreement) provides for a credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $8,700,000. The facility is for the sole purpose of the issuance of standby letters of credit. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an outstanding letter of credit of $8,694,000 under the CIC Credit Agreement. The

Company maintains import and export letters of credit, and standby letters of credit under its workers’ compensation insurance agreements and for other purposes, as needed from time to time, which are issued under the Credit Agreement and under the CIC Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $4,860,000 and $338,400,000 of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement, inclusive of an $81,875,000 delayed-draw term loan ($18,125,000 of the term loan principal has been permanently repaid as scheduled). There was $88,615,000 available under the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2026.

The Company's foreign subsidiaries had no debt outstanding at March 31, 2026.

The Company’s material debt agreements contain provisions which, among other covenants, require maintenance of certain financial ratios and place limitations on additional debt, investments and payment of dividends. Based on the loan agreement provisions that place limitations on dividend payments, unrestricted retained earnings (i.e., retained earnings available for dividend distribution) were $213,848,000 and $263,923,000 at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
