Re:	Amended and Restated Commitment Letter Ladies and Gentlemen:

Intersnack Group GmbH & Co. KG, a privately owned limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) organized under the laws of Germany (“you” or “Intersnack”) has advised Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), BofA Securities, Inc. (or any of its designated affiliates, “BofA Securities”), BNP Paribas (“BNPP”), BNP Paribas Securities Corp.

Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo Bank”) and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“WFS” and, together with Wells Fargo Bank, “Wells Fargo”; Bank of America, BofA Securities, BNP, DB, GS, HSBC, MSSF and Wells Fargo, the “Commitment Parties”) that one or more of its newly formed subsidiaries organized under the laws of Delaware, intend to, directly or indirectly, acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Utz Brands, Inc. (the “Target”), pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the Original Signing Date (as defined below) (the “Acquisition Agreement”) among the Target, Idaho USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Intersnack (“Acquiror”), Idaho Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror (“Merger Sub”), and Intersnack, as a result of which (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into the Target, with the Target being the surviving corporation and (ii) pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement and the various transactions contemplated thereby, you and a group of shareholders holding certain of the outstanding equity interests in the Target immediately prior to the Acquisition, collectively, will own all of the issued and outstanding common units in Utz Brands Holdings, LLC (collectively, the “Acquisition”).

The Acquisition, the entering into and funding of the Facilities, the Target Refinancing (as hereinafter defined), the payment of fees and expenses in connection therewith and all related transactions are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Transactions.”

This Commitment Letter amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety the Commitment Letter dated as of July 20, 2026 (the “Original Signing Date”) among you, Bank of America and BofA Securities (the “Original Commitment Letter”) and the Original Commitment Letter shall be of no further force or effect; provided that Bank of America and BofA Securities shall be entitled to the benefits of indemnification and expense reimbursement provisions of this Commitment Letter as if they were in effect on the Original Signing Date. The Fee Letter (as defined in the Original Commitment Letter) dated as of the Original Signing Date among you, Bank of America and BofA Securities is the “Original Fee Letter”. The Original Commitment Letter and the Original Fee Letter are the “Original Letters”.

1. In connection with the Transactions, upon and subject to the terms set forth in the Summary of Terms and subject only to the Funding Conditions, (a) Bank of America is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 65.000002% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 35.000002% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility, (b) BNPP is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility, (c) DBNY is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility, (d) GS is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility, (e) HSBC Bank is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility, (f) MSSF is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility and (g) Wells Fargo Bank is pleased to advise you of its several (and not joint) commitment to provide (i) 5.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) 10.833333% of the aggregate principal amount of the ABL Facility. Bank of America, BNPP, DBNY, GS, HSBC Bank, MSSF and Wells Fargo Bank are collectively the “Initial Lenders”. Each of BofA Securities, BNPPSC, DBSI, GS, HSBCS, MSSF and WFS is pleased to advise you of its willingness to act, and you hereby appoint each of BofA Securities, BNPPSC, DBSI, GS, HSBCS, MSSF and WFS to act, as the joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners (in such capacities, the “Lead Arrangers”) for the Facilities. In all marketing materials and any appropriate legal documentation for the Facilities, BofA Securities shall have the “lead left” placement.

2. The Lead Arrangers reserve the right, prior to or after the Closing Date (as defined below), to syndicate all or a portion of the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder to a group of financial institutions and institutional lenders selected by the Lead Arrangers and reasonably acceptable to you (“Lenders”), it being understood that the Lead Arrangers will not seek to obtain or obtain commitments from (a) such Persons that have been specified in writing to the Lead Arrangers by you prior to the Original Signing Date, (b) competitors of you and your subsidiaries that have been specified in writing to the Lead Arrangers from time to time and (c) any of their affiliates (other than affiliates that are bona fide debt funds) that are (x) identified in writing from time to time to the Lead Arrangers by you or (y) clearly identifiable on the basis of such affiliates’ name; provided that no such updates to the list shall be deemed to retroactively disqualify any parties that have previously acquired an assignment or participation interest in respect of any loans or commitments (it being understood and agreed that such prohibitions with respect to Disqualified Institutions shall apply to any potential future assignments or participations to any such parties) (such persons or entities in clauses (a) through (c), collectively the “Disqualified Institutions”).

3. You agree that no bookrunners, agents, co-agents or other arrangers will be appointed and no other titles will be awarded in order to obtain a commitment in respect of the Facilities unless you and the Lead Arrangers shall mutually agree.

4. The Lead Arrangers intend to commence syndication of the Facilities promptly upon your acceptance of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters (as defined below); provided that notwithstanding the Lead Arrangers’ right to syndicate the Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto (i) no Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, its obligation to fund the Term Loan Facility or the ABL Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the Closing Date has occurred, (ii) no assignment or novation by any Initial Lender shall become effective as between you and such Initial Lender with respect to all or any portion of such Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Facilities until the initial funding of the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility, if any, and (iii) unless you otherwise agree in writing, the Commitment Parties shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until after the Closing Date has occurred. Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Facilities and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Facilities constitute a condition to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date. Until the later of a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter) and the 45^th day after the Closing Date (such earlier date, the “Syndication Date”), you agree to use your commercially reasonable efforts to assist (and subject to the limitations of the Acquisition Agreement, cause the Target and its subsidiaries to assist) the Lead Arrangers in achieving a syndication of the Facilities that is reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers and you. Such assistance shall include (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to provide (i) customary pro forma financial statements of the Borrower and its subsidiaries after giving effect to the Transactions (but excluding the impacts of any purchase accounting adjustments), limited in to the financial statements specified in paragraph 13 of Exhibit B and (ii) customary forecasts of financial statements of the Borrower following the Closing Date that the Lead Arrangers shall reasonably request (such forecasts, collectively, the “Projections”); (b) your assistance in the preparation of a confidential information memorandum (the “Information Memorandum”) in form and substance customary for transactions of this type and other customary marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (collectively with the Summary of Terms and any additional summary of terms prepared for distribution to Public Lenders (as hereinafter defined), the “Information Materials”); (c) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts of the Lead Arrangers benefit materially from your existing lending relationships and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, the

existing banking relationships of the Target; (d) making your senior management and certain advisors available and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the senior management and certain advisors of the Target and its subsidiaries to be available from time to time at times and locations mutually agreed upon (it being understood and agreed that no physical “in-person” meeting shall be required) and to make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Borrower, the Target and their respective subsidiaries, as appropriate, at one or more meetings of prospective Lenders; (e) using your commercially reasonable efforts to procure (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to procure) a public corporate credit rating and a public corporate family rating (but not any specific rating) in respect of the Borrower from each of S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc. (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively, and public ratings for the Term Loan Facility from each of S&P and Moody’s, in each case, prior to or concurrently with the launch of general syndication; (f) to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Administrative Agent will be permitted and given access to conduct, at the Borrower’s expense, field examinations and inventory appraisals with respect to the assets of the Loan Parties; and (g) at any time prior to the Syndication Date, there being no competing offering, placement or arrangement of any bank financing by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries without the consent of the Lead Arrangers (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), if such arrangement would materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities (it being understood and agreed that the Borrower, the Target and their respective subsidiaries’ deferred purchase price obligations, ordinary course working capital facilities and ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings, accounts receivable purchase programs, any indebtedness permitted to be incurred or remain under the Acquisition Agreement (including additional indebtedness not to exceed $30 million), any guarantees, keepwell arrangements, letters of credit, reimbursement obligations, or other credit support arrangements in respect of obligations of independent operators, distributors, route operators, franchisees or similar commercial partners, any borrowings under revolving credit facilities or liquidity facilities, any issuance, amendment and/or extension of letters of credit, bank guarantees or similar obligations, any hedging or other similar indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business in each case, will not be deemed to materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or any Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, your obligations to assist in syndication efforts as provided herein (including the obtaining of the ratings referenced above and compliance with any of the provisions set forth in clauses (a) through (f) above) shall not constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Term Loan Facility on the Closing Date.

It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arrangers will, in consultation with you, manage and control all aspects of the syndication, including decisions as to the selection of prospective Lenders (other than Disqualified Institutions) reasonably acceptable to you and any titles offered to proposed Lenders, when commitments will be accepted and the

final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders (subject to your consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). It is understood that no Lender participating in any Facility will receive compensation from you in order to obtain its commitment, except on the terms contained herein, in the Fee Letters and in the Summary of Terms. It is also understood and agreed that the allocation and distribution of the fees among the Lenders will be at the sole discretion of the Lead Arrangers, except as otherwise set forth herein.

You hereby represent, warrant and covenant that (with respect to Information and the Projections and other information referred to in clause (b) below relating to Target and its subsidiaries, to your knowledge) (a) all written information, other than Projections, estimates, budgets, forecasts, forward-looking information and general industry or general economic information (the “Information”), which has been or is hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders by you or any of your subsidiaries or representatives (or on your or their behalf) in connection with any aspect of the Transactions is and will be, as of the date furnished, complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, taken as a whole, not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements contained therein are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto), and (b) the Projections and all other financial projections, forecasts and other forward looking information concerning the Borrower, the Target, and their respective subsidiaries that have been or are hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders by you or any of your subsidiaries or representatives (or on your or their behalf), when taken as a whole, have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time made, it being understood that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and are not a guarantee of financial performance, that the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that actual results may vary materially from the Projections. You agree that if at any time prior to the later of the date the Term Loan Facility is funded (the “Closing Date”) and the Syndication Date, any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made at such time, then you will (or, prior to the Closing Date, with respect to the Information and such Projections relating to Target and its subsidiaries, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, will use commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement, or cause to be supplemented, the Information and Projections so that (with respect to Information relating to Target and its subsidiaries, to your knowledge) such representations, when taken as a whole, will be correct in all material respects at such time. In arranging and syndicating the Facilities, the Lead Arrangers are and will be using and relying on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters, none of the making of any representation or warranty under this paragraph, any supplement thereto, or the accuracy of any such representation or warranty shall constitute a condition precedent to the availability and initial funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date.

You acknowledge that (a) the Lead Arrangers on your behalf will make available Information Materials to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system and (b) certain prospective Lenders may be “public side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Borrower, the Target, their respective affiliates or any of the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities) (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”; all other Lenders, “Private Lenders”). If reasonably requested, you will assist us in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials not containing MNPI with respect to the Borrower, the Target, their respective affiliates or any of the respective securities of any of the foregoing (the “Public Information Materials”) to be distributed to prospective Public Lenders.

Before distribution of any Information Materials (a) to prospective Private Lenders, you shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials and (b) to prospective Public Lenders, you shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials and confirming the absence of MNPI therefrom. In addition, at our reasonable request, you shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify Public Information Materials by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as “PUBLIC”. We shall be entitled to treat all information that is not specifically identified as “PUBLIC” (including the Projections) as being suitable only for posting to Private Lenders. By making such materials “PUBLIC” you shall be deemed to have authorized the Lead Arrangers and the potential new lenders to treat such materials as not containing MNPI (it being understood that you shall not be under any obligation to mark the Information Materials “PUBLIC”).

You agree that the Lead Arrangers may distribute the following documents to all prospective Lenders on your behalf in the form provided to you and your counsel a reasonable time prior to their distribution, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers in writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distributions that such material should only be distributed to prospective Private Lenders: (a) administrative materials for prospective Lenders such as lender meeting invitations and funding and closing memoranda, (b) notifications of changes to the terms of the Facilities and (c) other materials intended for prospective Lenders after the initial distribution of the Information Materials, including drafts and final versions of the Credit Documentation. If you advise us that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then the Lead Arrangers will not distribute such materials to Public Lenders without your consent. The Borrower and the Lead Arrangers shall have the right to approve every form of written communication, including the Information Memorandum, from the Borrower or any parties acting on its behalf (including the Lead Arrangers) to any Lender or potential Lender in connection with the offer and arrangement of the commitments under the Facilities.

5. You acknowledge that each Lead Arranger or any of its affiliates may be providing financing or other services to parties whose interests may conflict with yours and the Borrower’s. Each Commitment Party agrees that it will not furnish confidential information obtained from you or the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries to any of its other

customers and that it will maintain the confidentiality of all confidential information relating to you, your affiliates, the Borrower and the Borrower’s subsidiaries with the same degree of care as it treats its own confidential information. Each Commitment Party further advises you that it will not make available to you or the Borrower confidential information that it has obtained or may obtain from any other customer. In connection with the Transactions, you agree that each Commitment Party shall be permitted to access, use and share (subject to the confidential provisions hereof) with any of its bank or non-bank affiliates, agents, advisors (legal or otherwise) or representatives any information concerning you, any of your affiliates, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s subsidiaries that is or may come into the possession of such Commitment Party or its affiliates or agents.

In addition, please note that BofA Securities has been retained as a buy-side financial advisor (in such capacity, the “Buy-Side Advisor”) in connection with the Acquisition. You agree to such retention, and further agree not to assert any claim you might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of the Buy-Side Advisor and/or its affiliates and, on the other hand, our and our affiliates’ relationships with you as described and referred to herein. Each of the Commitment Parties party hereto acknowledges (i) the retention of BofA Securities as the Buy-Side Advisor and (ii) that such relationship does not create any fiduciary duties or fiduciary responsibilities on the part of BofA Securities or any of its affiliates.

6. As consideration for the commitments of the Initial Lenders hereunder and for the agreement of the Lead Arrangers to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay (or cause to be paid) the fees set forth in the Summary of Terms and in the Fee Letters, if and to the extent payable. Once paid, such fees shall not be refundable under any circumstances, except as otherwise contemplated by the Fee Letters.

The Lead Arrangers reserve the right to allocate, in whole or in part, to any of its affiliates any of the fees payable to such Lead Arranger pursuant to this Commitment Letter or any Fee Letter to which it is a party in such manner as such Lead Arranger determines in its sole discretion.

7. The commitments of the Initial Lenders to fund the Term Loan Facility and to provide and fund the ABL Facility on the Closing Date and the agreements of the Lead Arrangers to perform the services described herein are subject solely to the conditions set forth in Exhibit B hereto (the “Funding Conditions”), and upon satisfaction (or waiver by all Commitment Parties) of such conditions, the initial funding and availability of the Facilities shall occur; it being understood and agreed that there are no other conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Credit Documentation.

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter (including each of the exhibits attached hereto), the Fee Letters, the Credit Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the only representations the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of the Facilities and funding of the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility

on the Closing Date shall be (A) such of the representations made by or with respect to the Target in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders in their capacity as such, but only to the extent that you have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or otherwise decline to consummate the Acquisition as a result of a breach of such representations in the Acquisition Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”), and (B) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (ii) the terms of the Credit Documentation shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Facilities or funding of the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility on the Closing Date if the Funding Conditions are satisfied (or waived by the Commitment Parties) (it being understood that to the extent any security interest in any collateral in respect of the Facilities is not or cannot be provided and/or perfected on the Closing Date (other than (x) the pledge and perfection of the security interests in the equity interests of the Borrower and its wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries to the extent required pursuant to Credit Documentation and (y) other assets with respect to which a lien may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code) after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense, then the creation and/or perfection of a security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date but instead shall be required to be provided and/or delivered within 90 days after the Closing Date or such longer period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting reasonably). For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in the Existing Credit Agreements relating to organizational status of the Parent and the Borrower; power and authority, due authorization, execution and delivery and enforceability, in each case with respect solely to the Credit Documentation, no conflicts with or consent under charter documents, in each case, related to the entering into and the performance of the Credit Documentation and the incurrence of the extensions of credit thereunder; solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions and with solvency being determined in a manner consistent with the solvency certificate attached as Annex B-I to Exhibit B hereto) of Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; Federal Reserve margin regulations; the use of loan proceeds not violating OFAC, FCPA and the Patriot Act; the Investment Company Act; and, subject to the parenthetical in the immediately preceding sentence, creation, validity and perfection of security interests in the Collateral (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreements). This paragraph, and the provisions herein, shall be referred to as the “Certain Funds Provisions”.

For the avoidance of doubt, compliance by you and/or your affiliates with the terms and conditions of this Commitment Letter (other than the Funding conditions) is not a condition to Initial Lenders’ commitments to provide the Facilities hereunder on the terms set forth herein.

8. [Reserved]

9. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Commitment Parties and each of their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and other representatives and successors (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor as the same are incurred, together with reasonably detailed back-up documentation) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any aspect of the Transactions or (b) the Facilities, or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (i) is found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of such Indemnified Party’s controlled affiliates or controlling persons or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, in each case who are involved in or aware of the Transactions (each, a “Related Indemnified Party”) and, (ii) is found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from a material breach of this Commitment Letter or the Credit Documentation by an Indemnified Party or a Related Indemnified Party or (iii) arises from any dispute (to the extent such dispute does not arise from any act or omission of you or any of your affiliates) that is brought by an Indemnified Party against any other Indemnified Party (other than claims against the Administrative Agent or any Lead Arranger in its capacity in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent or arranger under any Facility). You agree to reimburse the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates from time to time, within thirty (30) days after written demand, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including syndication expenses, field examinations, appraisal and due diligence expenses and the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one outside counsel for all Commitment Parties (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Indemnified Party affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Party)) and, if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate material jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple material jurisdictions)) incurred in connection with the Facilities and any related documentation (including the Original Letters, this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters and the Credit Documentation). You acknowledge that we may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transactions is consummated.

You shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding effected without your prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with your prior written consent or if there is a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses

and related expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 9. If the indemnifying party has reimbursed any Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses in accordance with such request and there is a final and non-appealable judicial determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification or contribution rights with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 9, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly refund such amount.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter or the Original Commitment Letter, (i) no Protected Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use or misuse by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent that such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Protected Party or any Related Protected Party thereof, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) none of the Commitment Parties, you, any Protected Party or any Related Protected Party, shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Original Commitment Letter, the Transactions (including the Facilities and the use of proceeds thereunder), or with respect to any activities related to the Facilities, including the preparation of this Commitment Letter, the Original Commitment Letter and the Credit Documentation; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit your indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth in this Section. For purposes hereof, “Protected Parties” means the Commitment Parties and each of their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and other representatives and successors, and a “Related Protected Party” of any Protected Party means any of such Protected Party’s controlled affiliates or controlling persons or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, in each case who are involved in or aware of the Transactions.

10. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by this Commitment Letter, you acknowledge and agree, and acknowledge your affiliates’ understanding, that, other than with respect to the Buy-Side Advisor as addressed in Section 5: (i) the arrangement of the Facilities and any related arranging or other services described in this Commitment Letter is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between you and your affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, and you are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter; (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each Commitment Party is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for you or any of your affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Commitment Party has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in your or your affiliates’ favor with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Commitment Party has advised or is currently advising you or your affiliates on other matters) and no Commitment Party has any obligation to you or your affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth in this

Commitment Letter; (iv) each Commitment Party and its affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from yours and your affiliates and no Commitment Party has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) no Commitment Party has provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and you have consulted your own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent you have deemed appropriate.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE ORIGINAL LETTERS, THIS COMMITMENT LETTER (INCLUDING THE SUMMARY OF TERMS), THE FEE LETTERS AND THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY COMMITMENT PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in respect of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the provisions of the Original Letters, this Commitment Letter (including the Summary of Terms), the Fee Letters, the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court.

This Commitment Letter and the commitments hereunder shall not be assignable by any party hereto (except that GS may assign any of its rights, obligations and commitments hereunder to Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC; and it is understood that any Commitment Party’s agreements hereunder may be performed by or through its affiliates) without the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of each other party hereto (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and, to the extent expressly provided in Section 9 above, the Indemnified Parties and Protected Parties, and is not intended to and does not confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person other than the parties hereto and, to the extent expressly provided in Section 9 above, the Indemnified Parties and Protected Parties.

14. The Commitment Parties will use all confidential information provided to them by or on behalf of you hereunder solely for the purpose of providing the services which are the subject of this Commitment Letter and otherwise in connection with the Transactions and shall treat confidentially all such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Commitment Parties from disclosing any such information (a) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case the Commitment Parties agree (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, to inform you promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (b) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority or self-regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Commitment Party or any of its affiliates, (c) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of disclosure by the Commitment Parties in violation of this paragraph, (d) to the extent that such information

is received by such Commitment Party from a third party that is not, to the knowledge of such Commitment Party, subject to contractual or fiduciary confidentiality obligations owing to you, (e) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such Commitment Party or any of its affiliates, without the use of confidential information and without violation of this Commitment Letter, (f) to such Commitment Party’s affiliates and to its and its affiliates’ respective employees, legal counsel, independent auditors, advisors and other experts or agents who need to know such information in connection with the Transactions and who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential, (g) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any such information on a customary basis), (h) solely with respect to data about the transaction of the type customarily provided to such entities, to loan service providers, market data collectors and similar services providers to such Commitment Party in connection with the administration and management of the Facilities or (i) to potential or prospective new Lenders, participants or assignees and to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or potential counterparty to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective obligations, in each case who agree to be bound by the terms of this paragraph (or language substantially similar to this paragraph or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to you and the Commitment Parties, including, without limitation, as agreed in any Information Materials or other marketing materials, or as set forth on the standard splash page of Syndtrak) in accordance with the standard syndication processes of the Lead Arrangers or customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information. The Commitment Parties’ and their respective affiliates’, if any, obligations under this paragraph shall terminate automatically and be superseded by the confidentiality provisions contained in the Credit Documentation upon execution thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall terminate on the earlier of the (i) effectiveness of the Facilities and (ii) second anniversary of the Original Signing Date.

Each Commitment Party hereby notifies you that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Act”), each of them is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies you, which information includes your name and address, a certification regarding beneficial ownership as required by 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230 (such certification, the “Beneficial Ownership Certification”) and other information that will allow such Commitment Party to identify you in accordance with the Act.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Commitment Letter or the Original Commitment Letter (including Section 11 or this Section 14) prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any person.

15. The provisions of Sections 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether Credit Documentation shall be executed and delivered, and notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or any commitment or undertaking of any Commitment Party hereunder; provided that, your obligations under

this Commitment Letter, other than those relating to indemnification and confidentiality, shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect (or, if applicable, be superseded by the Credit Documentation) on the Closing Date and you shall automatically be released from all liability hereunder in connection therewith at such time.

16. Each of the parties hereto agrees that (i) this Commitment Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law)) with respect to the subject matter contained herein, including an agreement to negotiate in good faith the Credit Documentation by the parties hereto in a manner consistent with this Commitment Letter for the purpose of executing and delivering the Credit Documentation substantially simultaneously with the closing of the Acquisition, it being acknowledged and agreed that the funding of the Facilities is only subject to the Funding Conditions and (ii) each Fee Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law)) of the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter set forth therein. You shall have the right to terminate this Commitment Letter and the commitments of the Commitment Parties hereunder in full or in part (ratably across the Facilities and among the Commitment Parties) at any time upon written notice to us from you, subject to your surviving obligations as set forth in this Commitment Letter and in the Fee Letters; provided that the termination of any commitment or this Commitment Letter pursuant to this paragraph shall not prejudice your rights and remedies in respect of any breach or repudiation of this Commitment Letter that occurred prior to any such termination.

17. To the extent any commitment hereunder is contemplated to you, any borrower or any of your or its restricted subsidiaries in an EEA Member Country within the meaning of Article 21c of Directive (EU) 2024/1619 amending Directive (EU) 2013/36 (each such entity, an “EU Borrower”), each Commitment Party (the “Notifying Commitment Party”) may identify one or more of its (x) branches or (y) affiliates that are either specified to you on or prior to the date hereof (including in the case of Bank of America, Bank of America Europe Designated Activity Company and its successors) or with respect to which you have consented in writing (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), in each case established in an EEA Member Country (each, an “EU Commitment Party”) to make commitments to one or more EU Borrowers by delivering a notice (the “EU Notice”) to you duly executed by the Notifying Commitment Party and its corresponding EU Commitment Party identifying one or more EU Borrowers for which the EU Notice shall apply. The EU Notice may bifurcate EU commitments among different EU Commitment Parties and EU Borrowers in a single EU Notice, provided such notice identifies each applicable EU Commitment Party and its corresponding EU Borrower. An EU Notice delivered on the date hereof shall be deemed simultaneous with the Notifying Commitment Party’s execution of this Commitment Letter, and a Notifying Commitment Party executing this Commitment Letter on the date hereof may either (A) deliver the EU Notice simultaneously with such execution or (B) note on its signature page that it is executing as both a Commitment Party and a Notifying

Commitment Party and appointing the corresponding EU Commitment Party, which shall countersign as EU Commitment Party under this Commitment Letter. The EU Notice shall designate the applicable EU Commitment Party as the party responsible for making such commitments to the identified EU Borrower. No consent of you or any other person (other than the Notifying Commitment Party and the EU Commitment Party) is required to deliver or revoke any EU Notice. Upon delivery of the applicable EU Notice, any commitment schedule shall be deemed annotated to reflect each applicable EU Commitment Party’s commitment to the applicable EU Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, no Commitment Party is required to deliver an EU Notice or otherwise utilize the provisions of this paragraph nor deliver the EU Notice for all EU Borrowers hereunder. As used herein, “EEA Member Country” shall mean any of the member states of the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway.

Upon execution and delivery of an EU Notice: (i) the EU Commitment Party shall be deemed a Commitment Party hereunder with respect to commitments to the applicable EU Borrower (and for avoidance of doubt the Notifying Commitment Party shall not be deemed to hold any commitment to the applicable EU Borrower), (ii) the Notifying Commitment Party’s other commitments, if any, to you or other borrowers shall remain in full force and effect, and (iii) the EU Commitment Party shall be subject to, afforded and extended any and all rights, obligations and duties arising as a Commitment Party in respect of commitments to the applicable EU Borrower hereunder.

18. This Commitment Letter and all commitments and undertakings of the Commitment Parties hereunder will expire at 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on August 17, 2026 unless you execute this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters and return them to us prior to that time (which may be by facsimile transmission), whereupon this Commitment Letter (including the Summary of Terms) and the Fee Letters (each of which may be signed in one or more counterparts) shall become binding agreements. Thereafter, all commitments and undertakings of the Commitment Parties hereunder will expire on the earliest of (a) the 5th business day after the later of the Outside Date (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement on the Original Signing Date), unless the Closing Date occurs on or prior thereto, (b) the closing of the Acquisition with or without the use of the Facilities and (c) after execution of the Acquisition Agreement and prior to the consummation of the Transactions, the valid termination of the Acquisition Agreement in accordance with its terms as in effect as of the Original Signing Date.
