CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions or that include the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “could,” “may,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential,” “plan,” “will,” “should” and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements include statements about our business strategy, industry, future profitability, expected capital expenditures and the impact of such expenditures on our performance, management changes, current and potential future long-term contracts, our capital programs and our future business and financial performance. In addition, our forward-looking statements address the various risks and uncertainties associated with extraordinary market environments and the expected impact on our businesses, results of operations, and earnings.

A forward-looking statement may include a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking statement. We believe that we have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith and that they are reasonable. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. You should also understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider the following list to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by such forward-looking statements include:

the level of domestic spending and access to capital markets which we serve, namely (i) power generation and (ii) the oil and natural gas industry;
uncertainty regarding the future actions of oil producers, including the members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and Russia and the actions taken to set, maintain or cut production levels;
changes in tariffs, trade barriers, price and exchange controls and other regulatory requirements, and the impact of such policies on us, our customers and the global economic environment;
the success of Stateline (as defined in Note 2. “Variable Interest Entities”) and its impact on the financial condition and results of operations of our Solaris Power Solutions segment;
developments and uncertainty in the global economy generally, and/or the energy, power and infrastructure sectors specifically, and the resulting impacts to the demand and supply for power generation or crude oil and natural gas or volatility of the prices for such projects, and therefore the demand for the services we provide and the commercial opportunities available to us;
volatility in the political, legal and regulatory environments, including the impact of a prolonged federal government shutdown or lapse in federal appropriations that could disrupt our operations and future plans and opportunities;
geopolitical risks, including the war between Russia and Ukraine, the Israel and Hamas conflict and continued hostilities in the Middle East which could each affect the stability and continued recovery of oil and gas markets;
uncertainty regarding methods by which the growing demand for power generation will be met in both the short and long term;
customer concentration and the potential for future consolidation amongst current or potential customers that could affect demand for our products and services;

SOLARIS ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE, INC.
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except share and per share amounts)

1.    Business and Basis of Presentation

Business

Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. (referred to as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “Solaris” either individually or together with its consolidated subsidiaries, as the context requires) and its consolidated subsidiaries delivers power generation and distribution solutions, and logistics equipment and services, serving clients in the data center, energy, and other commercial and industrial sectors. The Company’s offerings include equipment for power generation and distribution. The Company also provides solutions for the management and logistics of raw materials used in oil and natural gas well completions. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, the Company serves multiple U.S. end markets, including energy, data centers, and other commercial and industrial sectors. The Company operates through two reportable business segments: Solaris Power Solutions and Solaris Logistics Solutions.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read together with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 5, 2025.

These consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for fair presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or for any interim period.

2.    Variable Interest Entities

On April 28, 2025, the Company formed Stateline Power, LLC (“Stateline”), a variable interest entity involving Solaris Power Solutions Stateline, LLC (“Stateline Power Solutions”), a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of Solaris Energy Infrastructure, LLC (“Solaris LLC”), and CTC Property LLC (“CTC”), a customer of the Company. Solaris LLC is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company.

Stateline was formed to provide off-grid power to CTC’s data center campus pursuant to a long-term equipment rental arrangement. In connection with the formation of Stateline, the Company contributed non-cash assets valued at $86.4 million, consisting primarily of progress payments on power generation equipment now owned by Stateline and pre-funded expenses, in exchange for a 50.1% equity interest in Stateline. CTC contributed $86.0 million in cash in exchange for the remaining 49.9% equity interest. CTC subsequently assigned its interest in Stateline to MZX Tech LLC (“MZX”). MZX is an affiliate of and under common control with CTC.

Concurrent with its formation, Stateline entered into (i) a management agreement with Solaris Power Solutions Stateline Operating, LLC (“Stateline Operator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Solaris LLC, under which Stateline Operator manages Stateline’s day-to-day operations and administrative functions, (ii) a master equipment rental agreement (“Rental Agreement”) with CTC (subsequently assigned to MZX), under which Stateline will lease power generation equipment to MZX for use at its data center facility and (iii) a bill of sale, assignment and assumption agreement under which Solaris LLC assigned to Stateline certain purchase orders related to the equipment required to service the Rental Agreement.

The Rental Agreement lease commences upon completion of equipment deployment and commissioning activities. Accordingly, no rental revenue was recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Table of Contents

The Company evaluated its interest in Stateline under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, and determined that Stateline is a variable interest entity because its equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and the equity holders as a group lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest.

The Company, through Solaris LLC, is the primary beneficiary of Stateline because it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Stateline’s economic performance, primarily from its control of Stateline Operator (which has broad authority over operations, budgeting, and expenditures) and the Company’s exclusive rights to manage and redeploy Stateline’s assets subject to certain conditions. Stateline’s governance structure includes a board with two representatives appointed by the Company and two by MZX, but the Company’s operational and asset management rights establish its power over the activities that most significantly affect Stateline’s economic performance. The Company also has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to Stateline. As a result, the Company consolidates Stateline’s financial position and results of operations in its condensed consolidated financial statements within the Solaris Power Solutions segment.

The contribution of assets by Solaris LLC to Stateline was accounted for as a common control transaction. The assets transferred were recognized at their historical carrying amounts, consistent with the treatment that would have applied had the transfer not occurred. No gain or loss was recognized upon consolidation. The contribution of cash by MZX resulted in the recognition of a non-controlling interest representing MZX’s 49.9% equity ownership. This non-controlling interest is presented within a single line item in equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, together with other non-controlling interests. Refer to Note 13. “Equity and Non-controlling Interest,” for a breakdown of non-controlling interest by entity.

On May 23, 2025, Stateline entered into a delayed draw term loan facility with a lender to finance the power generation equipment to be used under the Rental Agreement. Refer to Note 10. “Debt – Stateline Term Loan” for additional information.

The Company has not provided any financial support to Stateline during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 that it was not contractually required to provide, and it has no current intention to provide such support beyond its existing obligations. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss from its involvement with Stateline is limited to its equity investment of $86.4 million as of September 30, 2025.

The assets of Stateline can be used only to settle its obligations, and creditors of Stateline do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company or its other subsidiaries.

The following table summarizes Stateline’s assets and liabilities, included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025.

3.    Business Segments

We report two distinct business segments. These segments differ by their revenue-generating activities and align with how our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), assesses operating performance and allocates resources.

Our reporting segments are:

Solaris Power Solutions – delivers power generation and distribution solutions. The segment’s offerings support data center, energy, and other commercial and industrial sector customers by providing flexible, on-demand power infrastructure.
Solaris Logistics Solutions – designs and manufactures specialized equipment that enables the efficient management of raw materials used in the completion of oil and natural gas wells. Solaris’ equipment-based logistics services include field technician support, software solutions, and may also include last mile and mobilization services.

Our CODM evaluates the performance of our business segments and allocates resources based on Adjusted EBITDA. We define EBITDA as net income plus depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, and income tax expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus stock-based compensation, certain non-cash items and any extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains, losses or expenses.

In making resource allocation decisions, our CODM primarily considers budget-to-actual variances in Adjusted EBITDA on a monthly basis.

Summarized financial information by business segment is shown below.

4.    HVMVLV Acquisition

On August 15, 2025, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding equity interests in HVMVLV, LLC (“HVMVLV”), pursuant to a membership interest purchase agreement dated August 15, 2025 (the “HVMVLV Acquisition”). HVMVLV is a specialty provider of complex and fast-turnaround electrical control and distribution equipment, along with associated technical design and engineering services. The acquisition enhances our capabilities in power control and distribution solutions within the Solaris Power Solutions segment.

The HVMVLV Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $60.1 million, consisting of the following amounts:

    

Amount

Issuance of 696,028 Solaris LLC units and an equal number of Class B common stock shares (the "equity consideration")

$

19.3

Settlement of pre-existing short-term loan receivable from HVMVLV

3.9

Initial cash consideration (net of initial working capital adjustments)

29.5

Cash paid for HVMVLV's closing cash balance

7.4

Fair value of total purchase consideration transferred

$

60.1

13

Table of Contents

The fair value of the equity consideration was determined using the closing price of the Class A common stock on the acquisition date, which was $27.70 per share. Although not publicly traded, the Solaris LLC units are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for shares of Class A common stock. Additionally, the Class B common stock possesses identical voting rights as the Class A common stock.

On April 3, 2025, the Company extended a short-term loan to HVMVLV with a principal amount of $7.6 million. By the closing date of the HVMVLV Acquisition, the loan receivable increased to $7.8 million due to accrued interest. Of this amount, $3.9 million was settled through a reduction of the equity consideration otherwise payable to the seller and the remaining $3.9 million was settled as a reduction of cash consideration payable at closing.

The net cash consideration for the acquisition was $29.5 million, after initial working capital adjustments. The Company has 90 days from the closing date to finalize the purchase price, including any post-closing working capital adjustments.

The table below outlines our preliminary allocation of the total purchase consideration to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their fair values at the acquisition closing date.

3.1

The fair value of the acquired equipment held for lease was determined using both cost and market approaches. The cost approach involved estimating the replacement cost of the assets and adjusting this amount for their age, condition and utility. The market approach was also considered, analyzing recent transactions of comparable property and equipment to establish fair market value. The fair value of the covenant not to compete was determined using the income approach, specifically the with-and-without method. This method estimates the present value of the incremental cash flows we expect to realize due to the existence of the covenant, measured as the difference between the projected cash flows of the acquired business with the covenant in place and those that would be expected absent such restrictions. The covenant not to compete is subject to amortization over its estimated useful life, which approximates its contractual terms.

Goodwill of $3.1 million, allocated to the Solaris Power Solutions segment, represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired and reflects the assembled workforce and expected growth opportunities from the acquisition. Of this amount, $1.6 million is deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise.

Due to the timing of the HVMVLV Acquisition’s completion, the purchase price and related allocation are preliminary and may be revised. Adjustments could arise from changes to the purchase price, additional information obtained regarding the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and revisions to preliminary estimates of fair values including, but not limited to, certain identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, contractual relationships, intangible assets, certain working capital items, and residual goodwill.

14

Table of Contents

These adjustments to the purchase price allocation could be significant. The final allocation will be completed within the measurement period, which may extend up to one year from the acquisition date.

The Company incurred acquisition-related costs of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. These costs primarily consisted of legal and consulting fees and are included in “other operating expense, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The following table reflects pro forma revenues and net income for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, assuming the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2024. It also includes non-recurring pro forma adjustments to exclude the aforementioned acquisition-related costs. These unaudited pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved during the periods presented, nor do they predict future performance.

5.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily by requiring additional information about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2024 for annual reporting and on January 1, 2025 for interim periods. The Company has applied the amendments retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 3. “Business Segments” for further details on segment information.

Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update requires entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses, including the amounts related to (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) depletion expense, disaggregated within relevant expense captions on the statement of operations. It also requires qualitative descriptions for amounts not separately disaggregated and the total amount of selling expenses, along with the entity’s definition of selling expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Clarifying the Effective Date. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregation of information included in a reporting entity’s income tax disclosures through effective tax rate reconciliation and information on income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effects of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements but does not expect it to have a material impact.

15

Table of Contents

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU simplifies the Current Expected Losses model, including a practical expedient that allows entities to assume current economic conditions will remain stable over the life of the short-term accounts receivable and contract assets arising from revenue contracts under ASC 606, without the need to forecast future economic conditions. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this ASU, but does not expect a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU updates the rules on capitalizing costs related to developing software for internal purposes, eliminating the use of specific project phases and introducing new guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met. This standard applies to fiscal years starting after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

(b) Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity or a variable interest entity (“VIE”) under US GAAP.

Voting Interest Entities. Voting interest entities are entities in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to finance its activities independently and the equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance through voting or similar rights. Voting interest entities are consolidated in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, if the Company owns a majority of the voting interests, unless control does not rest with the majority owner (for example, because of veto rights or other substantive participating rights held by non-controlling interest holders).

Variable Interest Entities. VIEs are entities that lack one or more of the characteristics of a voting interest entity, such as sufficient equity at risk to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support or where the equity holders, as a group, lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. The Company consolidates a VIE in accordance with ASC 810 if it is the primary beneficiary, which occurs when the Company has both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company reassesses its initial evaluation of whether an entity is a VIE upon the occurrence of certain reconsideration events as defined in ASC 810. The Company also reassesses its determination of whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon changes in facts and circumstances that could potentially alter its conclusion.

Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets attributable to equity interests in consolidated subsidiaries that are not owned by the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and as a separate line item in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

For additional information on the Company’s involvement with VIEs, refer to Note 2. “Variable Interest Entities.”

Table of Contents

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(d) Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes amounts that are limited in their use due to contractual agreements or are designated for specific purposes and are not readily available for general use. In our condensed consolidated balance sheets, we classify these amounts as restricted cash. As of December 31, 2024, our restricted cash was restricted for capital expenditures for on-order power generation assets. The restricted cash balance decreased to zero as of September 30, 2025, due to use of restricted cash funds for growth-related capital expenditures.

The following table presents a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that total to the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

(e) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivable, which include trade receivables, unbilled revenue, and operating lease receivables, are stated at the net amount expected to be collected. We record accounts receivable at the invoice amount, plus accrued revenue that is not yet billed, less an estimated allowance for credit losses (for trade receivables) or uncollectible accounts (for operating lease receivables). Total unbilled revenue included in accounts receivable as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $7.6 million and $9.0 million, respectively.

Trade receivables are evaluated for impairment under ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, using the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) methodology. In determining the allowance for credit losses, we pool trade receivables with similar risk characteristics and consider a number of current conditions, past events and other factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, previous loss history and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole, and apply an expected loss percentage. The expected credit loss percentage is determined using historical loss data adjusted for current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Along with the expected credit loss percentage approach, we apply a case-by-case review on individual trade receivables when deemed appropriate. The expense associated with the provision for credit losses on trade receivables is recognized in other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Accounts deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance when our customers’ financial condition deteriorates, impairing their ability to make payments, such as upon customer bankruptcies. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

Operating lease receivables, representing the right to receive lease payments under ASC 842, Leases, are assessed for collectability at lease commencement and reassessed throughout the lease term. When it is probable that substantially all lease payments will be collected, we recognize leasing revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term. If collectability is not probable, we recognize leasing revenue on a cash basis and evaluate the receivables for impairment, recording an allowance for uncollectible amounts based on historical loss experience, current customer-specific conditions, and relevant economic factors. At lease inception, we typically collect the first and last month’s payments, which serve as collateral to mitigate credit risk. Based on this assessment and our historical experience, we maintain a general allowance for uncollectible operating lease receivables to reflect estimated probable losses over the lease term. This allowance is determined using aging analyses, specific reserves for at-risk leasing customers, and adjustments for macroeconomic trends, without incorporating forward-looking expected losses under CECL.

(f) Property, Plant and Equipment and Equipment Held for Lease

Property, plant and equipment, as well as equipment held for lease, are initially recorded at cost, except for assets acquired in a business combination, which are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. At period-end, these assets are reported at their initial measurement (whether at cost or fair value) less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets except for turbine engine cores. Turbine engine cores represent a significant component of our turbines and are depreciated using the units of production method based on an expected life of 30,000 fired hours. To reflect this distinct depreciation method and usage-based nature of these assets, turbine engine cores are presented as a separate line item in the table below, Power Generation – Turbine engine core. In prior periods, these assets were depreciated using this same units of production method and included within Power Generation – Ancillary equipment 3-20 years.

We capitalize interest on borrowings to the extent they are incurred during the construction or acquisition period of qualifying assets in accordance with ASC 835-20, “Interest – Capitalization of Interest”. Qualifying assets are assets which require substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use, such as certain power generation equipment. The amount capitalized is based on the weighted-average expenditures incurred and applicable interest rates on specific or general borrowings. Capitalized interest is included in the cost basis of the related asset and is depreciated over the asset’s estimated useful life once the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization of interest ceases when the qualifying asset is substantially complete.

Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that materially enhance the value or extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. Upon sale or disposal, the asset’s cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet, with any resulting gain or loss recognized in operations.

Property, plant and equipment and equipment held for lease are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability is assessed by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows.

18

Table of Contents

If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value.

(g) Convertible Notes

Our convertible notes are classified as convertible debt instruments recorded as liabilities in accordance with ASC 470-20 and are initially recognized at their principal amount, net of issuance costs and any discounts. Issuance costs and discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the instrument using the effective interest method. We evaluate each instrument to determine its classification as debt or equity and assess whether embedded features, such as conversion options, require bifurcation and separate accounting as derivatives under ASC 815-15. Bifurcation is required if these features are not clearly and closely related to the host contract and do not meet the scope exception criteria under ASC 815-40. Upon conversion, the carrying amount of the debt is reduced, and the settlement is accounted for based on the terms of the instrument, which may include issuance of common stock, cash payment, or a combination thereof. Interest expense includes the contractual coupon rate and amortization of issuance costs and discounts.

(h) Revenue

Service Revenue

We recognize revenue based on the transfer of control to the customer, reflecting the consideration expected to be received in exchange for our services and products. We assess customers’ ability and intention to pay based on factors such as historical payment experience and financial condition, and we typically bill customers on a weekly or monthly basis. Contracts with customers are generally on 30- to 60-day payment terms.

Contracts may include bundled pricing covering multiple performance obligations, such as combinations of systems, mobilization services and sand transportation coordination. In these instances, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation identified in the contract based on relative stand-alone selling prices, or estimates of such prices, and recognize revenue as control of each product or service is transferred to the customer.

Variable consideration may include discounts, price concessions and incentives. We estimate variable consideration based on the expected amount to be received and accrue revenue to reflect updates related to variable consideration as performance obligations are fulfilled.

Leasing Revenue

Leasing revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, reflecting the consumption of benefits derived from the leased assets. Lease payments are generally fixed, with no significant variable lease payments. Leasing arrangements may be renewed, subject to price negotiations with customers.

Future minimum lease payments to be received under our long-term lessor arrangements as of September 30, 2025, including payments from leases that have already commenced and leases that will commence in the future based on estimated commencement dates, were as follows:

Stateline Term Loan

On May 23, 2025, Stateline entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Stateline Term Loan”) with Stonebriar Commercial Finance LLC (“Stonebriar”), as lender, administrative agent, and collateral agent. The Company, through its subsidiary Solaris LLC, is the primary beneficiary of Stateline and therefore consolidates Stateline, including the Stateline Term Loan, in its condensed consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 2. “Variable Interest Entities,” for additional information on the consolidation of Stateline.

The Stateline Term Loan provides for delayed draw term loan facility with a maximum principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $550.0 million and (ii) 80% of the total cost of the Equipment Collateral (as defined in the Stateline Term Loan).

Advances under the facility are permitted through March 31, 2027. As of September 30, 2025, an initial advance of $72.0 million had been drawn. Advances are initially evidenced by “interim notes,” which are subsequently converted into “converted notes” pursuant to the terms of the agreement.

Interest on interim notes accrues from the date of each advance at a variable rate (the “Floating Rate”) equal to 5.94% plus the greater of (a) the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or (b) 4.31%. The Floating Rate resets monthly on the first day of each calendar month. Interest is payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month.

Each advance converts to a “converted advance” on its conversion date (the “Conversion Date”), defined as the earliest of:

(a)The first day of the calendar quarter following the 90-day anniversary of “Go-Live” data (as defined in the Rental Agreement) of the applicable Equipment Collateral,

(b)April 1, 2027, or

(c)A mutually agreed-upon date by Stateline and Stonebriar.

22

Table of Contents

Upon conversion, the related interim note becomes a converted note bearing interest at a fixed rate of 9.85% per annum, subject to a one-time adjustment based on then-prevailing U.S. Treasury rates and SOFR rates as of the business day prior to the Conversion Date. Once established, the fixed rate remains in effect for the 72-month term of the converted note. Interest on converted notes is payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month beginning the month following the Conversion Date.

Principal repayment begins on the first day of each month beginning the month following the Conversion Date, with 80% of the principal due in equal monthly installments over 72 months and the remaining 20% due at maturity. Prepayments are permitted with at least 10 days’ prior notice and, if made before March 31, 2028, are subject to a make-whole provision. Thereafter, prepayments are subject to a prepayment fee. Partial prepayments require lender consent.

The Stateline Term Loan includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on additional indebtedness, liens, asset sales, and distributions. Beginning in the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2027 (except as noted below), Stateline must comply quarterly with the following financial covenants (as defined in the Stateline Term Loan):

•Fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.35 to 1.00

•Leverage ratio of not more than 3.50 to 1.00, and

•Minimum liquidity of not less than $5.0 million through December 31, 2026, and not less than $10.0 million thereafter.

The Stateline Term Loan is secured by the Equipment Collateral, related supply and power contracts, and proceeds thereof. The loan is non-recourse to the Company and secured solely by the assets of Stateline.

Debt financing costs of $5.8 million were incurred, with $0.8 million deducted from the initial advance’s carrying value to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. The remaining $5.0 million was deferred as other non-current assets to be allocated proportionally upon additional advances.

Interest expense recognized in connection with the Stateline Term Loan was $2.0 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, all of which was capitalized as part of the cost of qualifying assets under ASC 835-20, Interest. As of September 30, 2025, $1.6 million of the outstanding principal is classified as current debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The carrying amount of the Stateline Term Loan approximates its fair value as of September 30, 2025, due to its recent origination and variable interest rate that reflects current market conditions (Level 2 fair value measurement under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement).

The table below includes the expected future principal maturities of the Stateline Term Loan as of September 30, 2025, based solely on the outstanding principal balance of $72.0 million and assumed conversion dates in 2026 and 2027 (actual maturities may vary based on timing of conversions and any prepayments). These estimates assume conversion in 2026 and early part of 2027 for the current advances, with principal repayments commencing thereafter over a 72-month term per converted note (80% amortized in equal monthly installments and 20% as a balloon payment at maturity). Future draws under the facility (up to an additional $446.5 million based on the estimated total commitment utilization) are not reflected in the table below, as they represent contingent future borrowings. The maturities of these future borrowings would follow a similar structure upon draw and conversion.

Refer to Note 19. “Subsequent Events” for additional information regarding the payoff of the Term Loan.

11.    Convertible Notes

On May 2, 2025, the Company issued $155.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”) in an underwritten public offering, including the full exercise of a $20.0 million over-allotment option. The Company received net proceeds of $150.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $4.7 million. Additional third-party issuance costs totaled $1.2 million. The Company used the net proceeds to purchase from Solaris LLC, its consolidated operating subsidiary, a subordinated convertible note of Solaris LLC with substantially similar economic terms as the 2030 Notes. Of the $155.0 million gross proceeds, $100.0 million was restricted for capital expenditures to support the growth of the Solaris Power Solutions segment, specifically for additional power generation equipment to support customer activity. As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not have a restricted cash balance due to use of restricted cash funds for growth-related capital expenditures.

The 2030 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and bear interest at a rate of 4.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2025. The 2030 Notes mature on May 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted in accordance with their terms.

The 2030 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at an initial conversion rate of 37.8896 shares per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $26.39 per share. The initial conversion rate would result in approximately 5,872,888 shares if all 2030 Notes were converted at the initial rate. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments in certain events, including stock splits, stock dividends, distributions, and specified corporate transactions. Upon a Make-Whole Fundamental Change (as defined in the indenture governing the 2030 Notes (the “First Supplemental Indenture”)), the conversion rate may be increased for a limited period based on the trading price of the Class A common stock. The maximum increase to the conversion rate in such an event is 13.2612 shares per $1,000 principal amount, which results in up to approximately 2,055,486 additional shares if all 2030 Notes are converted during such period and fully settled in shares.

As of September 30, 2025, the conversion rate remained unchanged from the initial rate of 37.8896 shares per $1,000 principal amount.

24

Table of Contents

Holders may convert their 2030 Notes prior to maturity under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter beginning after June 30, 2025, if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending in the prior quarter;
During the five business days following any 10 consecutive trading day period in which the trading price of the 2030 Notes is less than 98% of the product of the Class A common stock price and the conversion rate;
Upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events, including specified distributions or a Fundamental Change (as defined in the First Supplemental Indenture);
At any time from February 1, 2030 through the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date; or
At any time prior to the second business day before a redemption date, if the 2030 Notes are called for redemption.

The Company may not redeem the 2030 Notes prior to May 1, 2028. On or after that date, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the 2030 Notes for cash at par plus accrued and unpaid interest, provided that:

The last reported sale price of the Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on each of at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the redemption notice date; and
The stock price condition is also satisfied on the trading day immediately preceding such notice date.

The redemption date must fall on or before the 25th scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Partial redemptions are not permitted unless at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes remains outstanding following such redemption. A redemption will also constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, which may trigger an increase in the conversion rate. Holders may convert their 2030 Notes until the second business day before the redemption date. Upon conversion, the Company may elect to settle the 2030 Notes in cash, shares of Class A common stock, or a combination of both, subject to the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture.

Under ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company accounted for the 2030 Notes as a single liability instrument, presented as convertible notes in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The total transaction costs, consisting of underwriting discounts and commissions and third party issue costs, were $5.9 million. These costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the convertible notes and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is 5.6%.

A summary of the 2030 Notes interest expense, discount amortization, deferred debt issuance amortization, and capitalized interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 is as follows:

12.    Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities, as well as certain nonrecurring fair value measurements such as goodwill impairment and long-lived assets impairment, are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, which are as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or other inputs corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities based on the best information available.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities, including insurance premium financing, as reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.

Additionally, the carrying amounts outstanding under our debt agreements with variable rates, as reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value as the effective interest rate approximates market rates. The carrying value of amounts outstanding under our finance and operating lease obligations, as reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value as the borrowing rate approximate market rates. The estimated fair values of these financial instruments are determined using Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. The convertible notes are publicly traded and their fair value is based on Level 1 inputs.

Credit Risk

The financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk mainly include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and trade receivables.

As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $106.7 million (with no restricted cash outstanding). As of December 31, 2024, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $159.9 million. These balances exceed the FDIC-insured limits in both periods. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of institutions.

The majority of our accounts receivable have payment terms of 60 days or less. As of September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 53% and 12% of our total accounts receivable. The concentration of customers operating within the oil and natural gas industry may increase our overall exposure to credit risk, as these customers may be similarly affected by shifts in economic, regulatory or other external factors. If a customer defaults, our gross profit and cash flows may be adversely affected.

26

Table of Contents

To manage this credit risk, we conduct credit evaluations, monitor customer payment behavior, and, when necessary, pursue legal remedies, such as filing of liens.

13.    Equity and Non-controlling Interest

Dividends

In order to allow the Company to pay quarterly cash dividends to holders of its shares of Class A common stock, Solaris LLC paid distributions totaling $8.2 million and $5.3 million to all Solaris LLC unitholders in the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Of these amounts, $5.8 million and $3.7 million were paid to the Company in the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, all of which was used by it to pay quarterly cash dividends to holders of its shares of Class A common stock. Solaris LLC paid distributions totaling $24.5 million and $15.9 million to all Solaris LLC unitholders in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Of these amounts, $15.4 million and $10.9 million were paid to the Company in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additional pro-rata distributions to certain Solaris LLC unitholders (including the Company) amounting to $1.2 million were made in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 so that the Company could make payments owed by it under the Company’s Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined below).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, a total of 10,147,606 Solaris LLC units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, and a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock were cancelled, resulting in an increase in the Company’s ownership interest in Solaris LLC.

14.    Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to Class A shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the same period. Diluted earnings per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares.

15. Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company is a corporation and, as a result, is subject to United States federal, state and local income taxes. Solaris LLC is treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes and therefore does not pay United States federal income tax on its taxable income. Instead, the Solaris LLC unitholders, including the Company, are liable for United States federal income tax on their respective shares of Solaris LLC’s taxable income reported on the unitholders’ United States federal income tax returns. Solaris LLC is liable for income taxes in those states not recognizing its status as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) into law. Among other things, the OBBBA indefinitely extends the 100% first-year depreciation allowance (i.e. bonus depreciation) on qualified property placed in service after January 19, 2025, includes favorable modifications to the business interest expense limitation, and otherwise extends and enhances certain key provisions of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act. The OBBBA has multiple effective dates with respect to its various provisions, with certain provisions effective in 2025. The most significant impact to the Company of the OBBBA is the permanent reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation on qualified property. The impacts of OBBBA are reflected in our results for the quarter, and there was no material impact to our effective tax rate.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a combined United States federal and state expense for income taxes of $4.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a combined United States federal and state expense for income taxes of $13.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The effective combined United States federal and state income tax rates were 14.1% and (26.3)% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective combined United States federal and state income tax rates were 18.4% and 19.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, our effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to Solaris LLC’s treatment as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.

The Company’s deferred tax position reflects the net tax effects of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting. The largest components of the Company’s deferred tax position relate to the Company’s investment in Solaris LLC and net operating loss carryovers. The Company recorded a deferred tax asset and additional paid-in capital for the difference between the book value and the tax basis of the Company’s investment in Solaris LLC. This difference originates from the equity offerings of Class A common stock, exchanges of Solaris LLC units (together with a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) for shares of Class A common stock, and issuances of Class A common stock, and corresponding Solaris LLC units, in connection with stock-based compensation.

Based on our cumulative earnings history and forecasted future sources of taxable income, we believe that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future. As the Company reassesses this position in the future, changes in cumulative earnings history, excluding non-recurring charges, or changes to forecasted taxable income may alter this expectation and may result in an increase in the valuation allowance and an increase in the effective tax rate.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), contains rules that limit the ability of a company that undergoes an “ownership change” to utilize its net operating loss and tax credit carryovers and certain built-in losses recognized in years after the “ownership change.” An “ownership change” is generally defined as any change in ownership of more than 50% of a corporation’s stock over a rolling three-year period by stockholders that own (directly or indirectly) 5% or more of the stock of a corporation, or arising from a new issuance of stock by a corporation. If an ownership change occurs, Section 382 of the Code generally imposes an annual limitation on the use of pre-ownership change net operating loss carryovers to offset taxable income earned after the ownership change. We do not believe the Section 382 annual limitation related to historical ownership changes impacts our ability to utilize our net operating losses; however, if we were to experience a future ownership change our ability to use net operating losses may be impacted.

Payables Related to the Tax Receivable Agreement

On May 17, 2017, in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”), the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) with the other then-existing members of Solaris LLC. The Tax Receivable Agreement was later amended on June 27, 2023. As of September 30, 2025, our liability under the Tax Receivable Agreement was $76.9 million, of which $1.8 million was current, representing 85% of the net cash savings in United States federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that the Company anticipates realizing in future years from certain increases in tax basis and certain tax benefits attributable to imputed interest as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for United States federal income tax purposes) of Solaris LLC units in connection with our IPO or pursuant to previous exercises of the Redemption Right or the Call Right (each as defined in the Solaris LLC Agreement) and additional tax basis arising from any payments the Company makes under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

The projection of future taxable income involves significant judgment. Actual taxable income may differ from our estimates, which could significantly impact our liability under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Therefore, in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, we have recorded a liability under the Tax Receivable Agreement related to the tax savings we may realize from certain increases in tax basis and certain tax benefits attributable to imputed interest as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for United States federal income tax purposes) of Solaris LLC units in connection with the IPO or pursuant to previous exercises of the Redemption Right or the Call Right (each as defined in Solaris LLC’s limited liability company agreement) and additional tax basis arising from any payments the Company makes under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Solaris LLC may make cash distributions to the Company in order for the Company to satisfy its obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement and will be required to distribute cash pro rata to each of the other members of Solaris LLC, in accordance with the number of Solaris LLC units owned by each member at that time.

On January 9, 2025, the Company made payments totaling $3.6 million under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Solaris LLC made a cash distribution to the Company of $3.6 million to satisfy these obligations and concurrently made a cash distribution on a pro rata basis to certain Solaris LLC unitholders amounting to $1.2 million.

16.  Concentrations

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 54% and 11% of the Company’s revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, three customers accounted for 21%, 13% and 10% of the Company’s revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 46% and 12% of the Company’s revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, three customers accounted for 17%, 13% and 11% of the Company’s revenues.

As of December 31, 2024, two customers accounted for 33% and 18% of the Company’s accounts receivable.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, two suppliers accounted for 33% and 23% of the Company’s total purchases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, three suppliers accounted for 17%, 14% and 10% of the Company’s total purchases. As of September 30, 2025, two suppliers accounted for 31% and 21% of the Company’s accounts payable. As of December 31, 2024, one supplier accounted for 39% of the Company’s accounts payable.

17.  Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Claims

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various claims, legal actions, contract negotiations and disputes. The Company accrues for losses when probable and can be reasonably estimated. In management’s opinion, there are currently no such matters outstanding that would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements other than the following.

Table of Contents

On February 28, 2024, the Company was served with a lawsuit by Masaba Inc. in the Wyoming District Court related to alleged intellectual property infringement (the “Lawsuit”). The complaint was later amended to name the Company’s subsidiaries Solaris Oilfield Site Services Operating, LLC (“SOSSO”) and Solaris Oilfield Site Services Personnel, LLC (“SOSSP”) as defendants. The complaint seeks, among other relief, unspecified compensatory damages, rescission, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, costs and expenses. On July 19, 2024, SOSSO and SOSSP petitioned the Patent Trial and Appeal Board of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) to institute inter partes review (“IPR”) of all claims of the patent asserted in the Lawsuit (U.S. Patent No. 11,780,689 (“the ‘689 Patent”)). Pursuant to the parties’ joint request, the district court case was stayed on August 7, 2024 pending the completion of the requested IPR. On January 27, 2025, the USPTO instituted the IPR on all claims of the ‘689 Patent. A final written decision is expected in the IPR in January 2026. The Company believes that the claims asserted in the Lawsuit are without merit and will vigorously defend against them. At this time, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this case or estimate the range of possible loss, if any.

On March 28, 2025, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint in a putative class action lawsuit styled Stephen Pirello v. Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc., et al., Case No. 4:25-cv-01455, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. The complaint asserts claims against the Company and certain of its officers under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, alleging among other things that they made misleading statements and omissions relating to the acquisition of Mobile Energy Rentals, LLC (“MER” and such acquisition, the “MER Acquisition”). The complaint further alleges that these allegedly misleading statements and omissions were revealed in the Morpheus Research report regarding the Company issued on March 17, 2025, which the complaint alleges caused a decline in the Company’s stock price. The outcome of the lawsuit is uncertain, particularly because it is at its initial stages. However, the Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against it.

On October 31, 2025, Yvens Saint-Phard, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a derivative complaint putatively on behalf of the Company styled Yvens Saint-Phard v. William A. Zartler, et al., Case No. 4:25-cv-05225, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Saint-Phard Lawsuit”). The complaint in the Saint-Phard Lawsuit largely repeats the allegations made in the Pirello lawsuit. The complaint asserts that the alleged conduct harmed the Company and brings claims against certain of the Company’s directors and officers for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act.

Purchase Commitments

As of September 30, 2025, the Company has entered into material purchase commitments for power generation equipment driven by the growth of its Solaris Power Solutions segment.

19. Subsequent Events

Debt Refinancing and Convertible Notes Issuance

On October 8, 2025, the Company completed a refinancing transaction in which it issued $747.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). The 2031 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of May 2, 2025, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a second supplemental indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of October 8, 2025, between the Company and the Trustee.

A portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes were used to repay in full the outstanding principal amount (plus accrued and unpaid interest and any make whole or other prepayment option) under the Term Loan and extinguish such Term Loan, which had a principal balance of $320.9 million as of September 30, 2025. The Company expects to recognize a loss on extinguishment of debt in the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount, and any prepayment penalties. The amount of the loss has not yet been finalized.

The 2031 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations that rank equally in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness (including the 2030 Notes) and bear interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, beginning April 1, 2026, and mature on October 1, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted. Before July 1, 2031, holders may convert the 2031 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events; from and after July 1, 2031, holders may convert their 2031 Notes at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before maturity. Upon conversion, the Company will settle its obligations in cash, shares of its Class A common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 17.4825 shares per $1,000 principal amount, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $57.20 per share of Class A common stock, subject to customary adjustments.

Beginning on October 2, 2028, the Company may redeem the 2031 Notes, in whole or in part, if the market price of its Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the then-applicable conversion price for a specified period. If certain Fundamental Change (as defined in the Second Supplemental Indenture) events (such as qualifying business combinations or de-listing events) occur, holders may require the Company to repurchase their 2031 Notes at par plus accrued interest. Calling the 2031 Notes for redemption or the occurrence of certain Fundamental Changes may, under specified conditions, result in an increase in the conversion rate for a limited period.

Concurrently with the pricing of the 2031 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain financial institutions. The capped calls cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the same number of shares initially underlying the 2031 Notes and are designed to reduce potential dilution to Class A common stock and/or offset cash payments the Company may make upon conversion of the 2031 Notes, subject to a cap price of $88.00 per share. The total cost of the capped call transactions was approximately $65.6 million. These transactions are separate from the 2031 Notes and do not affect holders’ rights under the Second Supplemental Indenture.

Additional Borrowings under Existing Stateline Term Loan Facility

On October 10, 2025, Stateline drew an additional $43.9 million under the Stateline Term Loan, increasing the total outstanding balance to $115.9 million. The proceeds were used to fund growth-related capital expenditures.

Subsequent Commitments

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company entered into additional material purchase commitments for growth-related capital expenditures. The aggregate value of these new commitments totals $402.8 million, of which $195.4 million is expected to be settled within the subsequent 12 months. These commitments are expected to be funded through a combination of available cash, future operating cash flows, and borrowing under existing credit facilities.

Dividends

On November 3, 2025, the Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of Class A common stock, payable on December 18, 2025, to holders of record as of December 8, 2025. Additionally, a distribution of $0.12 per unit will be made to Solaris LLC unitholders, with the same payment and record dates.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

References to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Solaris” or the “Company” refer to Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. (either individually or together with its subsidiaries, as the context requires). The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our plans, estimates, beliefs and expected performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated as discussed in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of risks and uncertainties, including those described above in “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as updated by our subsequent filings with the SEC, all of which are difficult to predict. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed may not occur. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by law.

2031 Notes

In October 2025, we issued $747.5 million aggregate principal amount of 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”) in an underwritten public offering, which included the full exercise of a $97.5 million over-allotment option. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes to repay in full the outstanding principal amount (plus accrued and unpaid interest and any make whole or other prepayment option) under the existing secured term loan agreement (the “Term Loan”) and terminate such Term Loan. As a result, we expect to recognize a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the fourth quarter of 2025. The amount of such loss has not yet been finalized.

Refer to Note 19. “Subsequent Events” for additional information on the terms of the 2031 Notes and related capped call transactions.

Additional Borrowings under Stateline Term Loan

On October 10, 2025, Stateline drew an additional $43.9 million under the Stateline term loan facility, increasing the outstanding balance to $115.9 million. The proceeds were used to fund growth-related capital expenditures.

Market Trends and Outlook

In the third quarter, Solaris Power Solutions segment continued to grow significantly, reflecting returns on the capital investments the Company has made to grow its revenue and earnings contribution from providing power generation solutions. Solaris Power Solutions Revenue contributed 63% of Total Revenue and its Adjusted EBITDA contributed 77% of total segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Solaris Power Solutions contributed 52% of Total Revenue and 67% of total segment Adjusted EBITDA. Capital expenditures should continue to be heavily weighted towards Solaris Power Solutions as we intend to grow our capacity and deploy more power assets with customers. We believe continued demand for our power assets will drive Solaris Power Solutions to continue to be the dominant segment in terms of Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA contribution.

Today, Solaris Power Solutions’ primary customers include a leading company in the artificial intelligence computing sector, as well as several energy companies requiring power for hydrocarbon production, processing, transportation, and refining applications.

Demand for Solaris Power Solutions is predominantly influenced by accelerating needs for power in the U.S., juxtaposed against constrained electrical grid infrastructure. This is due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, aging transmission and distribution networks, extreme weather, and long lead times for various electric infrastructure equipment. Solaris’ power offerings are configurable and can be scaled to match power demand on a “behind-the-meter” or “distributed” basis in a shorter timeline than many grid-based providers can service.

In November 2025, the Company ordered an additional approximately 500 megawatts (“MW”) of power generation equipment which it expects to be delivered by early 2028. The Company estimates its power generation capacity will now reach a total of approximately 2,200 MW by early 2028 based on expected deliveries. The majority of this capacity is currently committed to customers under commercial agreements that primarily range in tenor from two to seven years. Each of these commercial agreements include distinct product specifications, such as product type, quantity, delivery period, and price, as well as standard terms and conditions with respect to acceptance, delivery, transportation, inspection, assignment, taxes and performance failure.

We expect total company capital expenditures remaining in 2025 of approximately $405 million on a consolidated basis, of which approximately $190 million should be incurred by Stateline. The majority of these capital expenditures are to support Solaris Power Solutions capital growth. Capital expenditures for Solaris Logistics Solutions represents less than $10 million of our total expected annual capital expenditures.

We intend to fund the majority of our current planned capital expenditures with available cash, cash flows from operations, available capacity under our revolving credit facility, and proceeds from the Stateline debt financing facility. Additionally, while no assurance can be given, we may seek to issue additional securities through opportunistic capital market transactions, depending upon market conditions, and / or enter into additional debt financing agreements. Even if we are unable to secure the financing of our planned capital expenditures, we have the ability to cancel the committed purchase orders and incur cancellation fees.

The sustainability of this favorable supply-demand dynamic in the power sector will depend on multiple factors, including continued demand growth for generative AI computing applications, supply chain availability for electrical equipment, potential regulatory changes, overall economic activity levels, the level and pace at which the power industry can invest in power infrastructure, and the pace of continued electrification-driven demand growth.

For Solaris Logistics Solutions, demand is predominantly influenced by the level of oil and natural gas well drilling and completion activity in the U.S. During the third quarter of 2025, our fully utilized system count decreased 11% to 84 fully utilized systems from the second quarter of 2025, which was driven by lower levels of oilfield activity. The level of demand over the longer term will depend on multiple factors, including commodity price levels, customer consolidation that can drive activity and procurement strategy changes and industry efficiency gains, geopolitical risk, economic activity, potential regulatory changes and potential impacts from geopolitical disruptions.

Solaris Power Solutions. Revenues from Solaris Power Solutions were $104.9 million and $229.9 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Revenues from Solaris Power Solutions were $4.7 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was due to a full period of contribution from Solaris Power Solutions following the creation of Solaris Power Solutions in the third quarter of 2024, along with increased MW capacity deployed. Deployed capacity increased to approximately 760 MW and 590 MW, respectively, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately 150 MW in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Solaris Logistics Solutions. Revenues from Solaris Logistics Solutions decreased $8.4 million, or 12%, to $61.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $70.3 million in the same period of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a $4.7 million decrease in revenue from fully utilized systems, which decreased to 84 fully utilized systems in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 91 fully utilized systems in the same period of 2024. In addition, revenue from last mile and ancillary services decreased $3.7 million, attributable to a mix impact on slightly higher last mile tonnage.

Revenues from Solaris Logistics Solutions remained relatively flat in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increasing by $0.5 million to $212.6 million, compared to $212.1 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $9.5 million increase in revenue from last mile and ancillary services, attributable to higher last mile tonnage year-over-year. This growth was partially offset by a $9.0 million decrease in revenue from fully utilized systems, which decreased to 92 fully utilized systems in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 95 fully utilized systems in the same period of 2024.

Solaris Power Solutions. Cost of revenue for Solaris Power Solutions was $44.4 million and $89.2 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Cost of revenue for Solaris Power Solutions was $1.3 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in cost of revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was due to a full period of contribution from Solaris Power Solutions following the creation of Solaris Power Solutions in the third quarter of 2024, along with increased megawatt activity.

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Solaris Power Solutions was 42% and 39% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Solaris Power Solutions was 27% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Solaris Logistics Solutions. Cost of revenue for Solaris Logistics Solutions decreased by $1.3 million, or 3%, to $44.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $45.6 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in system costs in line with fewer systems utilized.

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Solaris Logistics Solutions was 72% and 65% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Cost of revenue for Solaris Logistics Solutions increased by $14.9 million, or 11%, to $146.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $131.7 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $16.6 million increase in last mile and ancillary service costs, associated with higher last mile tonnage and a $1.8 million increase in systems costs due to the absence of the reversal of property taxes following a settlement with Brown County Appraisal District in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, discussed below in “Gain on Reversal of Property Tax Contingency”. This increase was partially offset by a $1.5 million reduction in system costs in line with fewer systems utilized.

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Solaris Logistics Solutions was 69% and 62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $11.4 million, or 103%, to $22.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.0 million in the same period of 2024. Depreciation and amortization increased by $30.3 million, or 99%, to $60.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $30.5 million in the same period of 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the addition of depreciable assets associated with the Solaris Power Solutions segment placed in service in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Gain on Reversal of Property Tax Contingency

On June 14, 2024, we reached a settlement agreement with Brown County Appraisal District in Texas, following a favorable ruling by the Eastland Court of Appeals on April 18, 2024. As a result, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we reversed $4.3 million of property tax expenses previously recorded through 2023 in connection with this case. Of this amount, $2.5 million was presented as gain on reversal of property tax contingency and $1.8 million reduced the costs of services in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $6.7 million, or 77%, to $15.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $8.8 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $5.7 million increase in salaries, wages and benefits resulting from an increase in average headcount, along with higher employee and office costs associated with supporting a larger workforce as our Solaris Power Solutions segment has expanded. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $20.7 million, or 83%, to $45.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $25.0 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $14.1 million increase in salaries, wages and benefits resulting from an increase in average headcount, as well as a $3.1 million increase in stock-based compensation expense related to the cash settlement of employee stock awards and higher employee and office costs associated with supporting a larger workforce as our Solaris Power Solutions segment has expanded.

Other Operating Expense, net

Other operating expense, net decreased by $0.8 million to $2.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.0 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower transaction costs incurred and higher net gains on disposals of assets in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same period of 2024, partially offset by the $3.0 million increase in Tax Receivable Agreement liability recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2025. Other operating expense increased by $1.0 million to $4.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.7 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the $3.0 million increase in Tax Receivable liability recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, partially offset by lower transaction costs incurred and higher net gains on disposals of assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same period of 2024.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense increased by $6.1 million to $9.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.9 million in the same period of 2024. Interest expense increased by $15.3 million to $19.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $4.4 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher borrowings outstanding along with higher effective interest rates in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same periods of 2024.

Loss on debt extinguishment

Loss on debt extinguishment decreased by $4.1 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024. The loss on debt extinguishment in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 related to the extinguishment of the senior secured bridge term loan facility and the prior revolving credit facility.

Provision for income taxes

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a combined United States federal and state expense for income taxes of $4.1 million, an increase of $3.6 million as compared to the $0.5 million income tax expense we recognized during the same period in 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a combined United States federal and state expense for income taxes of $13.9 million, an increase of $10.3 million as compared to the $3.7 million income tax expense we recognized during the same period in 2024. This change was attributable to changes in operating gains and mix of states where we operate. The effective combined United States federal and state income tax rates were 14.1% and (26.3)% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective combined United States federal and state income tax rates were 18.4% and 19.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to Solaris Energy Infrastructure, LLC’s (“Solaris LLC”) treatment as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity include:

Cash flows from operations;
Borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility and Stateline’s term loan facility;
Proceeds from the issuance of 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”), with certain funds remaining as of September 30, 2025; and
Proceeds from the October 2025 issuance of the 2031 Notes.

We believe these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term and long-term financial obligations, including existing purchase commitments and budgeted capital expenditures. While no assurance can be given, we may seek to issue additional securities through opportunistic capital markets transactions, depending upon market conditions and / or the availability of fleet growth opportunities, and / or enter into additional debt financing agreements.

Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility

As of September 30, 2025, we had an outstanding principal balance of $320.9 million under our Term Loan. On October 8, 2025, we repaid the remaining Term Loan principal of $320.9 million in full using proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes, thereby terminating the Term Loan and related interest obligations. Refer to Note 19. “Subsequent Events” in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for details.

Our revolving credit facility provides for borrowings up to the lesser of $75.0 million or a borrowing base determined by a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, subject to customary reserves and adjustments. At our option, and provided certain conditions are met, the facility may be increased by up to an additional $50.0 million, and up to $10.0 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. As of September 30, 2025, no borrowings were outstanding, and available capacity under the borrowing base was approximately $62.6 million. We intend to use any future borrowings for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Convertible Senior Notes

On May 2, 2025, we issued $155.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes. The net proceeds were primarily allocated to support the growth of our Solaris Power Solutions segment, with a portion of the proceeds remaining available to enhance our overall liquidity. Interest payments on the 2030 Notes are estimated to total approximately $7.4 million over the subsequent 12 months, payable semi-annually beginning November 1, 2025.

In October 2025, we issued $747.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes. The net proceeds from the 2031 Notes were used, in part, to repay and terminate the Term Loan. The issuance of the 2031 Notes further enhanced our liquidity position and extended our debt maturity profile.

Further details regarding the terms of these notes are included in Note 11. “Convertible Notes” and Note 19. “Subsequent Events,” in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Stateline Term Loan

As of September 30, 2025, Stateline had drawn an initial advance of $72.0 million under its delayed draw term loan facility out of the total estimated capacity of $518.5 million based on Stateline’s current capital plan. On October 10, 2025, Stateline drew an additional $43.9 million to fund growth-related capital expenditures, increasing the outstanding balance to $115.9 million. The remaining capacity of $402.6 million is expected to be drawn through 2026, depending on the timing of progress payments and equipment deliveries. This facility provides significant funding flexibility for Stateline’s capital needs. We estimate total interest payments over the next 12 months of approximately $7.3 million, based on the principal drawn as of September 30, 2025, which will increase with subsequent borrowings.

Table of Contents

See Note 10. “Debt” in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for terms and repayment.

Capital Commitments

We have entered into purchase commitments for power generation equipment that are critical to our long-term strategic initiatives. Short-term purchase commitments as of September 30, 2025 due within the subsequent 12 months total $209.8 million. Long-term purchase commitments that extend beyond one year total $520.8 million, of which $121.1 million is scheduled to be fulfilled during the remainder of 2025, and the remaining $399.7 million is due in 2026.

These commitments are cancellable but subject to significant termination penalties, ranging from 5% to 90% of the purchase price, depending on the timing of the cancellation.

Subsequent Commitments

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company entered into additional purchase commitments totaling $402.8 million for growth-related capital expenditures. Of these commitments, $195.4 million is expected to be settled within the subsequent 12 months. These commitments are expected to be funded by cash, operating cash flows, and borrowings under existing credit facilities.

Liquidity Position

As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $106.7 million. We believe that our cash reserves, projected operating cash flows, revolver capacity, and Stateline term loan facility provide adequate liquidity to meet our obligations for the next 12 months and beyond.

The issuance of the 2031 Notes and $43.9 million Stateline term loan facility draw further strengthened liquidity. We expect these combined resources will be sufficient to fund debt service, dividend payments, capital expenditures and related purchase commitments, as well as to support future strategic initiatives.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program on March 1, 2023, with an approved limit of $50.0 million and no set term limits. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we did not repurchase nor retire any shares of Class A common stock under the share repurchase program. As of September 30, 2025, we have collectively repurchased and retired 4,272,127 shares of Class A common stock for $34.6 million, or $8.09 per share, resulting in $15.4 million remaining under the authorized share repurchase program.

All purchases made pursuant to the authorized share repurchase plan were made in accordance with applicable securities laws from time to time in the open-market or through private transactions, depending on market conditions. Going forward, future purchases may be made pursuant to a trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b-18 or Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act, and may be discontinued at any time.

Significant Sources and Uses of Cash Flows

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $113.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $46.3 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of $66.9 million. This increase was primarily driven by higher revenue, largely attributable to continued growth in business activity within our Solaris Power Solutions segment, which was established in the third quarter of 2024, and has rapidly expanded its contribution to our operating performance. Consequently, our net income, adjusted for non-cash items, increased by $95.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the prior comparable period. This increase was partially offset by a $24.6 million increase in working capital use to support higher sales volumes and expanded operations and $3.7 million cash settlement related to stock-based compensation.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $422.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an increase from $189.9 million during the same period in 2024. The $232.1 million increase is mainly attributed to $386.8 million paid for turbines and ancillary equipment to support the growth and operations of Solaris Power Solutions and $29.4 million paid for the HVMVLV Acquisition in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, partially offset with $122.1 million spent on the MER Acquisition and $61.8 million of capital expenditures in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Financing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities totaled $255.7 million. This amount primarily reflects $227.0 million borrowings from debt financing and $86.0 million capital contributions from non-controlling interest in Stateline, partially offset by $15.4 million in quarterly dividends to Class A common stock shareholders, $10.3 million in distributions to Solaris LLC unitholders, $13.1 million paid for debt financing costs, and $10.5 million paid for cancelled shares withheld for taxes from vesting of restricted stock. In comparison, net cash provided by financing activities was $254.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This amount primarily reflects net debt financing proceeds of $295.0 million, partially offset by payments of $14.5 million on debt financing and debt extinguishment costs, $10.9 million in quarterly dividends to Class A common stock shareholders, $8.1 million on share repurchases, and $4.9 million in distributions to Solaris LLC unitholders.

Future Uses of Cash

Our significant cash commitments primarily relate to our capital expenditures under our power generation fleet growth program and debt service on our Stateline term loan facility. In addition, we are obligated to make semi-annual interest payments on the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, with the principal amount due at maturity in 2030 and 2031, respectively. At our election, the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes may be settled in cash, shares of Class A common stock, or a combination of both.

Additional expected uses of cash include obligations under our Tax Receivable Agreement, scheduled payments under finance and operating lease agreements, insurance premium financing agreements, dividend payments, and other routine operating obligations.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2025. Disclosure controls refer to controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated by our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, and summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

As disclosed in Note 4. “HVMVLV Acquisition” included in the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein, we acquired HVMVLV on August 15, 2025, and its total revenues constituted approximately 3% of total revenues as shown on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025. HVMVLV’s total assets constituted approximately 4% of total assets as shown on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025. We excluded HVMVLV’s disclosure controls and procedures related to its internal control over financial reporting from the scope of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. This exclusion is in accordance with the guidance issued by the Staff of the SEC that an assessment of recent business combinations may be omitted from management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting for one year following the acquisition. As part of the Company’s ongoing integration activities, the Company’s financial reporting controls and procedures are in the process of being implemented at HVMVLV.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings

Due to the nature of our business, we may become, from time to time, involved in routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities. In the opinion of our management, there are no pending litigation, disputes or claims against us which, if decided adversely, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations other than the lawsuits by Masaba Inc., Mr. Stephen Pirello and Mr. Saint-Phard as discussed in detail in Note 17. “Commitments and Contingencies – Litigation and Claims” included in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein.

Item 1A.      Risk Factors

Factors that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results or liquidity and the trading price of our Class A common stock are described under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 5, 2025. As of the date of this filing, there have been no material updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 except as described herein.

Tariffs and other trade measures could adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

The U.S. government has announced baseline tariffs of 10% on products from virtually all foreign countries and an additional individualized reciprocal tariff on the countries with which the United States has the largest trade deficits. Additionally, tariffs have been placed on the importation of certain materials. As a result of the administration's trade policies, tariffs have increased and may increase our material input costs. Any further trade restrictions, retaliatory trade measures and additional tariffs could result in higher input costs to our products, increased costs and delays in meeting our customers’ orders. It remains unclear to what extent, upon which countries, and upon which terms, tariffs may be levied. There remains much uncertainty regarding the full scope of tariffs, if they will be increased, decreased or eliminated altogether. In addition, certain legal challenges have been initiated against the Trump Administration’s ability to implement such tariffs with the success of such challenges uncertain as of this time. To the extent that such trade policies impact our supply chain, we may not be able to fully mitigate the impact of these increased costs or pass price increases on to our customers.

The imposition of further tariffs by the United States on a broader range of imports, or further retaliatory trade measures taken in response to additional tariffs or uncertainty regarding such potential impacts, could increase costs in our supply chain or reduce demand of our customers’ products, either of which could adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, changes in trade policy may have negative impacts on the global economic environment (including causing or exacerbating any potential recession) which could have a negative impact on the demand for our power generation solutions as our customers delay or cancel projects in which our business may service.

The ultimate impact of these trade measures on our business operations and financial results is uncertain and may be affected by various factors, including whether and when such trade measures are implemented, the timing when such measures may become effective, the amount, scope, or nature of such trade measures, the direct or indirect impacts that trade measures may have on consumer or business sentiment and the broader economy and our ability to execute strategies to mitigate any negative impacts.

We are subject to a number of risks associated with Stateline.

On April 28, 2025, we announced the formation of Stateline, an entity involving our newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary Solaris Power Solutions and CTC, an affiliate of an industry leader in the evolving AI computer space. CTC subsequently assigned its interest in Stateline to MZX, an affiliate of CTC. Stateline is expected to account for approximately 900 MW (or approximately 53% of our Solaris Power Solutions’ generation assets), and as such, Stateline subjects our overall business to a number of risks, including:

the risk that the demand for off-grid power generation related to artificial intelligence (“AI”) does not grow in the manner in which we expect;
the fact that we derive, and will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenue from a relatively small number of customers, and as a result, this reliance on a few large customers may adversely affect our revenue and operating results;
Stateline may need to seek additional debt and equity financing to support its working capital needs and there can be no assurance that such financing would be available to Stateline on favorable terms or at all;
Stateline and the industry in which it operates is subject to complex, developing regulatory frameworks, which may increase the time and labor necessary to operate the project as the parties intend;
we may experience difficulties in finding alternative lessors for our power generation equipment dedicated to Stateline in the event of an early termination of the related rental agreement;
certain key members of the Company’s management will dedicate a significant amount of their time and attention to Stateline; and
the management agreement to which our subsidiary is a party provides for the termination of its operatorship under certain circumstances and, if those circumstances were to occur, (i) our partner may have the right to purchase our equity interests in Stateline and (ii) the Company would lose its seats on the board of directors of Stateline.

To the extent one or more of these risks materializes, our Solaris Power Solutions segment and, in turn, our consolidated business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We may be subject to short selling strategies and are party to various proceedings and claims related thereto from time to time.

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. We are, and may in the future may be, the subject of unfavorable allegations made by short sellers. For example, earlier this year, Morpheus Research issued a report to short sellers that contained certain allegations against us that we believe to be misleading (as discussed further below). Any such allegations may be followed by periods of instability in the market price of our shares of common stock and negative publicity.

Any related inquiry or formal investigation from a governmental organization or other regulatory body, or resulting litigation from private claimants, could result in a material diversion of our management’s time and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Such a situation could be costly and time-consuming and could distract our management from operating our business. For example, on March 28, 2025, a purported Solaris stockholder filed a complaint in a putative class action lawsuit styled Stephen Pirello v. Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc., et al., Case No. 4:25-cv-01455, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. The complaint asserts claims against Solaris and certain of its officers under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, alleging among other things that they made misleading statements and omissions relating to Solaris’s acquisition of Mobile Energy Rentals LLC. The complaint further alleges that these allegedly misleading statements and omissions were revealed in the Morpheus Research report regarding Solaris issued on March 17, 2025, which the complaint alleges caused a decline in Solaris’s stock price. The outcome of the lawsuit is uncertain, particularly because it is at its initial stages. However, the Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against it.

We may be unable to raise the funds necessary to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes for cash following a fundamental change or to pay any cash amounts due upon maturity or conversion of the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, and our other indebtedness limits our ability to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes or to pay any cash amounts due upon their maturity or conversion.

Noteholders may, subject to a limited exception, require us to repurchase their 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, following a fundamental change at a cash repurchase price generally equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Upon maturity of the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, we must pay their principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest in cash, unless they have been previously repurchased, redeemed or converted. In addition, upon conversion, we will satisfy part or all of our conversion obligation in cash unless we elect to settle conversions solely in shares of our Class A common stock. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, or pay any cash amounts due upon their maturity or conversion. In addition, applicable law, regulatory authorities and the agreements governing our other indebtedness may restrict our ability to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, or pay any cash amounts due upon their maturity or conversion. For example, we expect to fund payments due on the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, respectively, from corresponding payments due to us under the subordinated intercompany convertible note to be issued by Solaris LLC to us. Our revolving credit facility will prohibit Solaris LLC from making payments to us under the subordinated intercompany convertible note except to provide for regularly scheduled interest payments, provided no events of default exists under the revolving credit facility or would result therefrom, and except for certain other payments in equity interests. Accordingly, we may not have access to funds from Solaris LLC to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, for cash following a fundamental change or to pay any cash amounts due upon conversion of the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable. We may seek to obtain a waiver under the revolving credit facility to permit these payments, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such a waiver. Unless we exercise our option to settle conversions solely in shares, our failure to repurchase the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, or to pay the cash amounts due upon their maturity or conversion when required will constitute a default under the indentures governing the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes (the “Indentures”). A default under the Indentures or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our other indebtedness, which may result in that other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy all amounts due under the other indebtedness and the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable.

The issuance of shares of our Class A common stock upon conversion of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes will dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders and could depress the trading price of our Class A common stock.

Upon conversion of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, we will satisfy part or all of our conversion obligations in shares of our Class A common stock, unless we elect to settle conversions solely in cash. The issuance of shares of our Class A common stock upon conversion of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes will dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders, which could depress the trading price of our Class A common stock. In addition, the market’s expectation that conversions may occur could depress the trading price of our Class A common stock even in the absence of actual conversions. Moreover, the expectation of conversions could encourage the short selling of our Class A common stock, which could place further downward pressure on the trading price of our Class A common stock.


Provisions in the indentures governing the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes could delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover of us.

Certain provisions in the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes and each of the respective Indentures could make a third party attempt to acquire us more difficult or expensive. For example, if a takeover constitutes a “fundamental change” (as defined in each of the Indentures), then investors of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, as applicable, will have the right to require us to repurchase their 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, for cash. In addition, if a takeover constitutes a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in each of the Indentures), then we may be required to temporarily increase the conversion rate for the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable. In either case, and in other cases, our obligations under the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, as applicable and each of the Indentures could increase the cost of acquiring us or otherwise discourage a third party from acquiring us or removing incumbent management, including in a transaction that holders of our Class A common stock may view as favorable.

The conditional conversion feature of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, respectively, is triggered, holders of such notes will be entitled to convert the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, we may elect to settle all or a portion of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

The accounting method for each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes could adversely affect our reported financial condition and results.

The accounting method for reflecting the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, as applicable, on our balance sheet, accruing interest expense for the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, as applicable, and reflecting the underlying shares of our Class A common stock in our reported diluted earnings per share may adversely affect our reported earnings and financial condition.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, we expect that the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes will be reflected as a liability on our balance sheets, with the initial carrying amount equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, as applicable, net of issuance costs. The issuance costs will be treated as a debt discount for accounting purposes, which will be amortized into interest expense over the term of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes. As a result of this amortization, the interest expense that we expect to recognize for each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes for accounting purposes will be greater than the cash interest payments we will pay on each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, which will result in lower reported income.

In addition, we expect that the shares of Class A common stock underlying each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes will be reflected in our diluted earnings per share using the “if converted” method. Under that method, diluted earnings per share would generally be calculated assuming that all the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes, respectively, were converted solely into shares of our Class A common stock at the beginning of the reporting period, unless the result would be anti-dilutive. The application of the if-converted method may reduce our reported diluted earnings per share, and accounting standards may change in the future in a manner that may adversely affect our diluted earnings per share.

Furthermore, if any of the conditions to the convertibility of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes is satisfied, then we may be required under applicable accounting standards to reclassify the liability carrying value of each of the 2030 Notes and 2031 Notes as a current, rather than a long-term, liability. This reclassification could be required even if no noteholders convert their 2030 Notes or 2031 Notes, as applicable, and could materially reduce our reported working capital.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

2030 Notes

As described in Note 11. “Convertible Notes” to our notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein, on May 2, 2025, we issued $155.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes. The 2030 Notes were offered and sold in an offering registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR (Reg. No. 333-286868), as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement dated April 30, 2025, the pricing term sheet dated May 1, 2025, and a final prospectus supplement dated May 1, 2025.

Our shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2030 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. We do not intend to file a registration statement for the resale of the 2030 Notes or any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2030 Notes. We anticipate any such future issuances will be made in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act.

The initial conversion rate will be 37.8896 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $26.39 per share of Class A common stock. The conversion rate will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, including pursuant to customary “make-whole” provisions. The maximum conversion rate will be 51.1508 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes, representing a minimal conversion price of approximately $19.55 per share, in each case subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2030 Notes is 7,928,374, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

HVMVLV Acquisition

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of HVMVLV, on August 15, 2025, the Company issued 696,028 shares of Class B common stock, along with an equal number of Solaris LLC Units that are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, as partial consideration for the acquisition.

The Company’s issuance of 696,028 shares of Class B common stock in connection with the HVMVLV Acquisition was not registered under the Securities Act, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

THIRD AMENDMENTTO
LOAN, SECURITY AND GUARANTY AGREEMENT

THIRD AMENDMENTTO LOAN, SECURITY AND GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), dated as of October 6, 2025, to the Loan, Security and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2024 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Loan Agreement”), among SOLARIS ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Infrastructure”), SOLARIS OILFIELD SITE SERVICES OPERATING, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Site Services Operating”), SOLARIS OILFIELD EARLY PROPERTY, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Early Property”), SOLARIS OILFIELD SITE SERVICES PERSONNEL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Site Services Personnel”), SOLARIS LOGISTICS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Logistics”), SOLARIS OILFIELD TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Technologies”), SOLARIS TRANSPORTATION, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Transportation”), SOLARIS POWER SOLUTIONS, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (formerly known as Mobile Energy Rentals LLC) (“SPS”), HVMVLV, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“HVMVLV”, and together with Infrastructure, Site Services Operating, Early Property, Site Services Personnel, Logistics, Technologies, Transportation, and SPS, “Borrowers”), SOLARIS ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and certain of Parent’s Subsidiaries, as Guarantors (Guarantors and Borrowers together, “Obligors”), the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders, and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, “Agent”).

2.1Loan Commitments
2.1.1Commitments. Each Lender agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Commitment, on the terms set forth herein (including Section 6), to make Loans to Borrowers from time to time through the Termination Date. The Loans may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time as provided herein. In no event shall Lenders have any obligation to honor a request for a Loan if Revolver Usage at such time plus the requested Borrowing would exceed the Borrowing Base.
2.1.2Notes. Loans and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and the applicable Lender. At the request of a Lender, Borrowers shall deliver promissory note(s) to such Lender, evidencing its Loans.
2.1.3Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of Loans shall be used by Borrowers solely (a) to satisfy existing Debt; (b) to pay fees and transaction expenses associated with the closing of this credit facility; (c) to pay Obligations in accordance with this Agreement; and (d) for lawful corporate purposes, including working capital. Borrowers shall not, directly or indirectly, use any Letter of Credit or Loan proceeds, nor use, lend, contribute or otherwise make available any Letter of Credit or Loan proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, (i) to purchase or carry, or to reduce or refinance any debt incurred to purchase or carry, any Margin Stock or for any related purpose as governed by any regulation (including Regulation U) of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors; (ii) to fund any activities of or business with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of issuance of the Letter of Credit or funding of the Loan, is the target of any Sanction; or (iii) in any manner that would result in a violation of a Sanction, Anti-Corruption Law or other Applicable Law by any Person (including any Secured Party or other individual or entity participating in any transaction).
2.1.4Voluntary Reduction or Termination. Upon at least 10 days prior written notice to Agent at any time, Borrowers may terminate or reduce the Commitments. Each reduction shall be specified in the notice, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (plus any increment of $1,000,000), and applied ratably to all Commitments. A notice of termination or reduction by Borrowers is irrevocable; provided, that a notice of termination in full may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of another credit facility, in which case such notice may be revoked or modified by Borrower Agent by notice to Agent on or prior to the specified effective date if such condition is not satisfied.
2.1.5Overadvances. Any Overadvance shall be repaid by Borrowers within one Business Day, and constitute an Obligation secured by the Collateral, entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. Agent may require Lenders to fund Base Rate Loans that cause or constitute an Overadvance and to forbear from requiring Borrowers to cure an Overadvance, as long as the total Overadvance does not exceed $7,500,000 and does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days without the consent of Required Lenders. In no event shall Loans be required that would cause Revolver Usage to exceed the aggregate Commitments. No funding or sufferance of an Overadvance shall constitute a waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default caused thereby if unpaid. No Obligor shall be a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

39


2.1.6Protective Advances. Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any condition in Section 6 is not satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans (“Protective Advances”) (a) up to an aggregate amount of $7,500,000 outstanding at any time, if Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance payment of Obligations, as long as such Loans do not cause Revolver Usage to exceed the aggregate Commitments; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to Obligors under any Loan Documents, including interest, costs, fees and expenses. Each Lender hereby purchases an undivided Pro Rata participation in Protective Advances outstanding from time to time. Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances under clause (a) by written notice to Agent. Absent such revocation, Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. No funding of a Protective Advance shall constitute a waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default relating thereto. No Obligor shall be a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.
2.1.7Increase in Commitments. Borrowers may request an increase in Commitments from time to time upon not less than 30 days’ notice to Agent, as long as (a) the requested increase is in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and is offered on the same terms as existing Commitments, except for a closing fee specified by Borrowers, (b) total increases under this Section do not exceed $50,000,000 and no more than three increases are made, and (c) the requested increase does not cause the Commitments to exceed any applicable cap under any intercreditor or subordination agreement (including the Intercreditor Agreement). Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of the requested increase and, within 10 Business Days thereafter, each Lender shall notify Agent if and to what extent such Lender commits to increase its Commitment. No Lender is obligated to provide any increase, and any Lender not responding within such period shall be deemed to have declined an increase. If Lenders fail to commit to the full requested increase, Eligible Assignees may issue additional Commitments and become Lenders hereunder. Agent may allocate, in its discretion, the increased Commitments among committing Lenders and, if necessary, Eligible Assignees. Total Commitments shall be increased by the requested amount (or such lesser amount committed by Lenders and Eligible Assignees) on a date agreed upon by Agent and Borrower Agent, provided the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at such time. Agent, Obligors, and the new and existing Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents and agreements as Agent deems appropriate to evidence the increase in and allocations of Commitments and Obligors shall pay any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith. On the effective date of an increase, the Revolver Usage and other exposures under the Commitments shall be reallocated among Lenders, and settled by Agent as necessary, in accordance with Lenders’ adjusted shares of Commitments.
2.2Letter of Credit Facility.
2.2.1Issuance of Letters of Credit. Issuing Bank shall issue Letters of Credit from time to time until 20 Business Days prior to the Termination Date, on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a)Each Borrower acknowledges that Issuing Bank’s issuance of any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) Issuing Bank receives a LC Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender exists, such Lender or Borrowers have entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Agent and Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender.

40


If, in sufficient time to act, Issuing Bank receives written notice from Agent or Required Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested Letter of Credit. Prior to receipt of any such notice, Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions. Letters of Credit may not extend beyond the scheduled Termination Date unless Cash Collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent, and Issuing Bank shall be entitled to issue notices of non-renewal to the beneficiaries thereof with respect to any Letter of Credit with automatic renewal provisions.

(b)Letters of Credit may be requested by a Borrower to support obligations incurred by Obligors in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by Agent. Increase, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be treated as issuance of a new Letter of Credit, but Issuing Bank may require a new LC Application in its discretion.

(c)Borrowers assume all risks of beneficiaries’ acts, omissions or misuses of Letters of Credit. None of Agent, Issuing Bank or Lenders shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial, incomplete or failed shipment of any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or Documents; deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and an Obligor; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in translation or interpretation of technical terms; misapplication by a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or proceeds thereof; or consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Bank, Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to all rights and remedies of a beneficiary whose claims are discharged through a Letter of Credit.

(d)In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or other Communication in whatever form believed by Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. Issuing Bank may use legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act (and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance) upon any advice given by such experts. Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

2.2.2Reimbursement; Participations.

(a)If Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to Issuing Bank, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower Agent receives notice of such payment under a Letter of Credit, if such notice is received prior to 9:00 a.m., on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower Agent receives such notice, if such notice is received after 9:00 a.m. (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers. The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary.

41


Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(b)Each Lender hereby irrevocably and unconditionally purchases from Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata participation in all LC Obligations outstanding from time to time. Issuing Bank is issuing Letters of Credit in reliance upon this participation. If Borrowers do not make a payment to Issuing Bank when due hereunder, Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and each Lender shall within one Business Day after such notice pay to Agent, for the benefit of Issuing Bank, the Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon request by a Lender, Issuing Bank shall provide copies of Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession.

(c)The obligation of each Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of Issuing Bank in connection with Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made as provided in this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; a draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being determined to be forged, fraudulent, noncompliant, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; waiver by Issuing Bank of a requirement that exists for its protection (and not an Obligor’s protection) or that does not materially prejudice an Obligor; honor of an electronic demand for payment even if a draft is required; payment of an item presented after a Letter of Credit’s expiration date if authorized by the UCC or applicable customs or practices; or any setoff or defense that an Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations. Issuing Bank does not assume responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. Issuing Bank does not make any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty to Lenders with respect to any Letter of Credit, Collateral, LC Document or Obligor. Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.

(d)No Indemnitee shall be liable to any Obligor, Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any Letter of Credit or LC Document except as a result of such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Issuing Bank may refrain from taking any action with respect to a Letter of Credit until it receives written instructions (and in its discretion, appropriate assurances) from the Lenders.

2.2.3Cash Collateral. At Agent’s or Issuing Bank’s request, Obligors shall Cash Collateralize (a) the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender; and (b) all outstanding Letters of Credit if an Event of Default exists, the Termination Date is scheduled to occur within 20 Business Days or the Termination Date occurs. If Obligors fail to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as Loans, the amount of Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).

42


2.2.4Resignation of Issuing Bank. Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and Borrowers, and any resignation of Agent hereunder shall automatically constitute its concurrent resignation as Issuing Bank. From the effective date of its resignation, Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall otherwise have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder relating to any Letter of Credit issued by it prior to such date. A replacement Issuing Bank may be appointed by written agreement among Agent, Borrower Agent and the new Issuing Bank.

Section 3.INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1Interest
3.1.1Rates and Payment of Interest.

(a)The Obligations shall bear interest (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a Term SOFR Loan, at Term SOFR for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin; and (iii) if any other Obligation (other than Letter of Credit fees, but including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.

(b)During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Obligor, or during any other Event of Default if Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment), payable within 10 days of demand.

(c)Interest shall accrue from the date a Loan is advanced or Obligation is incurred or payable, as applicable, until paid in full by Borrowers, and shall in no event be less than zero at any time. Interest accrued on the Loans is due and payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date; (ii) concurrently with prepayment of any Loan, with respect to the principal amount being prepaid; and (iii) on the Termination Date. Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the applicable agreements or, if no payment date is specified, within 10 days of demand.

3.1.2Application of Term SOFR to Outstanding Loans.

(a)Borrowers may elect to convert any portion of Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any Term SOFR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a Term SOFR Loan. During any Default or Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a Term SOFR Loan.

(b)Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation by 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving such notice, Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation is irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified). If, at expiration of an Interest Period for a Term SOFR Loan, Borrowers have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Loan shall convert to a Base Rate Loan. Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, nor shall it have any liability with respect to, administration, submission or any other matter related to any reference rate referred to herein or with respect to any rate (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the selection of such rate and any related spread or other adjustment) that is an alternate, replacement or successor to such rate (including any Successor Rate), or any component thereof, or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Conforming Changes. The Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities that affect any reference rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers.

43


Agent may select information source(s) in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Successor Rate), or any component thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms hereof, and shall have no liability to any Lender, Obligor or other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise, and whether at law or in equity) for any error or other act or omission related to or affecting the selection, determination or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by such information source(s).

3.1.3Interest Periods. Borrowers shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) of one, three or six months (in each case, subject to availability) to apply to each Term SOFR Loan; provided, that (a) the Interest Period shall begin on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a Term SOFR Loan, and shall expire one, three or six months thereafter, as applicable; (b) if any Interest Period begins on the last day of a calendar month or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at its end, or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of the end month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the end month’s last Business Day; and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and (c) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Termination Date.
3.2Fees.
3.2.1Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Rate times the amount by which the Commitments exceed the average daily Revolver Usage during any month. Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each month and on the Termination Date.
3.2.2LC Facility Fees. Borrowers shall pay (a) to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for Term SOFR Loans times the average daily Stated Amount of Letters of Credit, payable in arrears on the first day of each month; (b) to Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit, payable in arrears on the first day of each month; and (c) to Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Letters of Credit, payable as and when incurred. During an Event of Default, the fee payable under clause (a) shall be increased by 2% per annum.
3.2.3Fee Letters. Borrowers shall pay all fees set forth in any fee letter executed in connection with this Agreement.
3.3Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection . All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to Term SOFR) shall be computed for actual days elapsed, based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable. All other interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days. Each determination by Agent of any interest, fee, interest rate or amounts payable hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.8 that is submitted to Borrower Agent by Agent or the affected Lender shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the certificate.

44


3.4Reimbursement Obligations
. Obligors shall pay all Claims incurred and paid or payable by any Indemnitee promptly upon written request therefor. Obligors shall also reimburse Agent for all reasonable and documented legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of Loan Documents, including any modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral; and (c) subject to Section 10.1.9(b), any examination or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral by Agent’s personnel or a third party. All legal, accounting and consulting fees shall be charged to Obligors by Agent’s professionals at their then applicable hourly rates, regardless of any alternative fee arrangements that Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals that otherwise might apply to any other transaction. Obligors acknowledge that counsel may provide Agent with a benefit (such as a discount, credit or accommodation for other matters) based on counsel’s overall relationship with Agent, including fees paid hereunder. If, for any reason (including inaccurate information in Borrower Materials), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid. All amounts payable by Obligors under this Section shall be due within 10 days of demand.
3.5Illegality
. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder, to make, maintain, issue, fund or commit to, participate in, or charge applicable interest or fees with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit, or to determine or charge interest or fees based on SOFR or Term SOFR, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Agent, (a) any obligation of such Lender to perform such obligations, to make, maintain, issue, fund, commit to or participate in the Loan or Letter of Credit (or to charge interest or fees otherwise applicable thereto), or to continue or convert Loans as Term SOFR Loans, shall be suspended and Borrowers shall make such appropriate accommodations regarding affected Letters of Credit as Agent or such Lender may reasonably request, as applicable, (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender to make or maintain Base Rate Loans whose interest rate is determined by reference to Term SOFR, the interest rate applicable to such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall, as necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies Agent that the circumstances giving rise to Lender’s determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, Borrowers shall prepay or convert Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain the Loan and charge applicable interest to such day, or immediately, if such Lender cannot so maintain the Loan. Upon any prepayment or conversion of a Loan pursuant to this Section, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
3.6Inability to Determine Rates

45


3.6.1Inability to Determine Rate. If in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, as applicable, (a) Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) no Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 3.6.2, and the circumstances under Section 3.6.2(a) or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (b) Agent or Required Lenders determine that for any reason Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, Agent will promptly so notify Borrowers and Lenders. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of Lenders to make, maintain, or convert Base Rate Loans to, Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Term SOFR component of Base Rate, the utilization of such component in determining Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Agent (or, in the case of a determination by Required Lenders described above, until Agent upon instruction of Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (I) Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans, and (II) any outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall convert to Base Rate Loans at the end of their respective Interest Periods.
3.6.2Successor Rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, if Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Borrower Agent or Required Lenders notify Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to Borrower Agent) that Borrowers or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(a)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining one, three and six month interest periods of Term SOFR, including because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis, and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(b)CME or any successor administrator of the Term SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Agent, CME or such administrator with respect to its publication of Term SOFR, in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which one, three and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall or will no longer be representative or made available or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of U.S. dollar denominated syndicated loans, or shall or will otherwise cease, provided, that at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator reasonably satisfactory to Agent that will continue to provide such representative interest periods of Term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one, three and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, “Scheduled Unavailability Date”);

then, on a date and time determined by Agent (any such date, “Term SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with respect to clause (b) above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any other applicable Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment, for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, any Loan Document (“Successor Rate”).  If the Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment, all interest will be payable on a monthly basis.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) if Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date or (y) if the events or circumstances of the type described in clauses (a) or (b) above have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in effect, then in each case, Agent and Borrower Agent may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section at the end of any Interest Period, relevant interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for such alternative benchmarks in similar U.S.

46


dollar denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for such benchmarks in similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States. For the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments shall constitute a Successor Rate. Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after Agent posts such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Borrowers unless, prior to such time, Required Lenders deliver to Agent written notice that Required Lenders object to the amendment.

Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify Borrowers and Lenders of implementation of any Successor Rate. A Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that to the extent market practice is not administratively feasible for Agent, the Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Agent. Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for all purposes of the Loan Documents.

3.7Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy
3.7.1Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(a)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or Issuing Bank;

(b)subject any Recipient to Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to any Loan, Letter of Credit, Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c)impose on any Lender, Issuing Bank or interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, Commitment or Loan Document;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to a Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or its Commitment, or converting to or continuing any interest option for a Loan, or to increase the cost to a Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, Borrowers will pay to it such additional amount(s) as will compensate it for the additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

3.7.2Capital Requirements. If a Lender or Issuing Bank determines that a Change in Law affecting it or its holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s or holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s Commitment, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations or Loans, to a level below that which such Lender, Issuing Bank or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for the reduction suffered.

47


3.7.3Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank for any increased costs or reductions suffered more than nine months (plus any period of retroactivity of the Change in Law giving rise to the demand) prior to the date that the Lender or Issuing Bank notifies Borrower Agent of the applicable Change in Law and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor.
3.8Mitigation
. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.8, then at the request of Borrower Agent, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate or assign its obligations hereunder to a different Lending Office, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to it or unlawful. Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
3.9Funding Losses
. If for any reason (a) any Borrowing, conversion or continuation of a Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period or tenor, (c) Borrowers fail to repay a Loan when required, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period or tenor pursuant to Section 13.4, then Borrowers shall pay to Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all losses, expenses and fees arising from redeployment of funds or termination of match funding.
3.10Maximum Interest
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”). If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread (in equal or unequal parts) the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 4.LOAN ADMINISTRATION.

4.1Manner of Borrowing and Funding Loans
4.1.1Notice of Borrowing.

(a)To request Loans, Borrower Agent shall deliver a Notice of Borrowing to Agent by (i) 11:00 a.m. on the requested funding date, in the case of Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans), (ii) 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Term SOFR Loans and (iii) 11:00 a.m. on the requested funding date, in the case of Swingline Loans. Notices received by Agent after such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing is irrevocable and must specify (A) the Borrowing amount, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as a Base Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, and (D) in the case of a Term SOFR Loan, the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified).

48


(b)Unless payment is otherwise made by Borrowers, the becoming due of any Obligation (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including any Swingline Loan, Overadvance, Protective Advance, Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Secured Bank Product Obligations) shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan on the due date in the amount due and the Loan proceeds shall be disbursed as direct payment of such Obligation. In addition, Agent may, at its option, charge such amount against any operating, investment or other account of an Obligor maintained with Agent or any of its Affiliates.

(c)If a Borrower maintains a disbursement account with Agent or any of its Affiliates, then presentation for payment in the account of a Payment Item when there are insufficient funds to cover it shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan on the presentation date, in the amount of the Payment Item. Proceeds of the Loan may be disbursed directly to the account.

4.1.2Funding by Lenders. Except for Swingline Loans, Agent shall endeavor to notify Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 1:00 p.m. on the proposed funding date for a Base Rate Loan or by 3:00 p.m. two Business Days before a proposed funding of a Term SOFR Loan. Each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing in immediately available funds not later than 3:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which case Lender shall fund by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Subject to its receipt of such amounts from Lenders, Agent shall disburse the Borrowing proceeds in a manner directed by Borrower Agent and acceptable to Agent. Unless Agent receives (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it will not fund its share of a Borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to Borrowers. If a Lender’s share of a Borrowing or of a settlement under Section 4.1.3(b) is not received by Agent, then Borrowers agree to repay to Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to the Borrowing. Agent, a Lender or Issuing Bank may fulfill its obligations under Loan Documents through one or more Lending Offices, and this shall not affect any obligation of Obligors under the Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations.
4.1.3Swingline Loans; Settlement; Rescindable Amounts.

(a)To fulfill any request for a Base Rate Loan hereunder, Agent may in its discretion advance Swingline Loans to Borrowers, up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $7,500,000. Swingline Loans shall constitute Loans for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account until settled with or funded by Lenders hereunder. Each Lender hereby purchases, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata participation in all Swingline Loans outstanding from time to time.

(b)Settlement of Loans, including Swingline Loans and Protective Advances, among Lenders and Agent shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Agent (but at least weekly, unless the settlement amount is de minimis), on a Pro Rata basis in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by Agent to Lenders. Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply any payment received from an Obligor to Swingline Loans and Protective Advances, regardless of any designation by any Obligor or anything herein to the contrary. If any Loan cannot be settled among Lenders, whether due to an Obligor’s Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, each Lender shall pay the amount of its participation in the Loan to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent’s request therefor. Interest on a Loan shall be payable in favor of a Lender from the later of the date the Loan is advanced to Borrowers or the Lender funds the Loan (or participation therein). No Obligor or Secured Party shall be entitled to credit for interest paid by a Secured Party to Agent pursuant to Section 4.1.3(c) or Section 12.10.2, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on amounts held by Agent pursuant to Section 4.2. Lenders’ obligations to make settlements and to fund participations are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

49


(c)Unless Agent receives notice from Borrowers prior to the date on which a payment is due to Agent for the account of Lenders or Issuing Bank hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment, Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance on such assumption, distribute to Lenders or Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. With respect to any payment that Agent makes for the account of Lenders or Issuing Bank hereunder as to which Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment, a “Rescindable Amount”): (1) Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, (2) Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by Borrowers (whether or not then owed), or (3) Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment, then each Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to or otherwise made for the account of such Lender or Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds with interest thereon for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice by Agent to Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

4.1.4Notices. If Borrowers request, convert or continue Loans, select interest rates or transfer funds based on telephonic or electronic instructions to Agent, Borrowers shall confirm the request by prompt delivery to Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as applicable. Agent and Lenders are not liable for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of Agent or a Lender acting on its understanding of telephonic or electronic instructions from a person believed in good faith to be authorized to give instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.
4.1.5Conforming Changes. Agent may make Conforming Changes from time to time with respect to SOFR, Term SOFR or any Successor Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, any amendment implementing such changes shall be effective without further action or consent of any party to any Loan Document. Agent shall post or provide each such amendment to Lenders and Borrower Agent reasonably promptly after it becomes effective.
4.2Defaulting Lender
. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:
4.2.1Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations or rights to fund, participate in or receive collections with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (including existing Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and LC Obligations), Agent may in its discretion reallocate Pro Rata shares by excluding a Defaulting Lender’s Commitments and Loans from the calculation of shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).
4.2.2Payments; Fees. Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. Agent may use such amounts to cover the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, to Cash Collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, to readvance the amounts to Borrowers or to repay Obligations. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder while it is a Defaulting Lender and its unfunded Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section 3.2.1. If any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulting Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2 shall be paid to such Lenders. Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not reallocated.

50


4.2.3Status; Cure. Agent may determine in its discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error. Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank may agree in writing that a Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender’s Commitments and Loans, and the Revolver Usage and other exposures under the Commitments shall be reallocated among Lenders and settled by Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender, including its payment of breakage costs for reallocated Term SOFR Loans) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares. Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank, or as expressly provided herein with respect to Bail-In Actions and related matters, no reallocation of Commitments and Loans to non-Defaulting Lenders or reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Loan Document. No Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.
4.3Number and Amount of Term SOFR Loans; Determination of Rate
. Each Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, plus an increment of $100,000 in excess thereof. No more than five Borrowings of Term SOFR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all Term SOFR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated and considered one Borrowing. Upon determining Term SOFR for any Interest Period requested by Borrowers, Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by Borrowers, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.
4.4Borrower Agent
. Each Borrower hereby designates Infrastructure (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for and receipt of Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of Communications, delivery of Borrower Materials, payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender. Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment. Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon any Communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by or to Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. Each of Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Obligor agrees that any Communication, delivery, action, omission or undertaking by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Obligor.
4.5One Obligation
. The Loans, LC Obligations and other Obligations constitute one general obligation of Borrowers, jointly and severally, and are secured by Agent’s Lien on all Collateral; provided, that Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.
4.6Effect of Termination
. On the effective date of the termination of all Commitments, the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, and each Secured Bank Product Provider may terminate its Bank Products. Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Obligors contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens unless it receives Cash Collateral or a written agreement, in each case reasonably satisfactory to it, protecting Agent and Lenders from dishonor or return of any Payment Item previously applied to the Obligations. Sections 2.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 4.1.3(c), 5.4, 5.8, 5.9, 12, 14.2, this Section, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Loan Document, shall survive any assignment by Agent, Issuing Bank or any

51


Lender of rights or obligations hereunder, termination of any Commitment, and any repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.

Section 5.PAYMENTS

5.1General Payment Provisions
. Except as provided in Section 5.8, all payments of Obligations shall be made in Dollars, without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. Any payment of a Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Sections 3.1.1(c) and 3.9. Agent shall apply all payments and proceeds of Collateral against the Obligations as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, but whenever possible (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) any payment shall be applied to Base Rate Loans before Term SOFR Loans.
5.2Repayment of Loans
. The Borrowers may repay the Loans from time to time, without penalty or premium (subject to Section 3.9), pursuant to a notice of prepayment (in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent), delivered to Agent concurrently with prepayment of a Swingline Loan and at least one Business Day prior to prepayment of other Base Rate Loans or two Business Days prior to repayment of Term SOFR Loans; provided, that no such notice shall be required for payments applied pursuant to Section 5.6. Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required hereunder, and any Overadvance or Protective Advance shall be due and payable as provided in Sections 2.1.5 and 2.1.6. If a Disposition (other than pursuant to clauses (a), (c), (f), (g), (h) or (i) of Section 10.2.5) includes Accounts, Payment Intangibles or Inventory, Obligors shall apply Net Proceeds to repay Loans equal to the greater of (a) the net book value (or fair market value, if higher) of such Accounts, Payment Intangibles and Inventory, or (b) the reduction in Borrowing Base resulting from the disposition.
5.3Payment of Other Obligations
. Obligations other than Loans, including LC Obligations and Claims, shall be paid by Obligors as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified, within 10 days of demand.
5.4Marshaling; Payments Set Aside
. None of Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of Obligors is made to Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender, or if Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and any of such payment or setoff is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Agent, Issuing Bank or a Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or setoff had not occurred.
5.5Application and Allocation of Payments
5.5.1Application. Payments made by Borrowers hereunder shall be applied (a) first, as specifically required hereby; (b) second, to other Obligations then due and owing; (c) third, to other Obligations specified by Borrowers; and (d) fourth, as determined by Agent in its discretion. If funds received by or available to Agent under clause (b) are insufficient to pay fully all Obligations then due and owing, such funds shall be applied (i) ratably to pay interest and fees until paid in full, and then (ii) ratably to pay unreimbursed draws under Letters of Credit and Loan principal then due and owing.
5.5.2Post-Default Allocation. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary but subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, during an Event of Default under Section 11.1(j), or during any other Event of Default at the discretion of Agent or Required Lenders, monies to be applied to

52


the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows:

(a)first, to all fees, indemnification, costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to Agent;

(b)second, to all other amounts owing to Agent, including Swingline Loans, Protective Advances, and Loans and participations that a Defaulting Lender has failed to settle or fund;

(c)third, to all amounts owing to Issuing Bank;

(d)fourth, to all Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses owing to Lenders;

(e)fifth, to all Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) constituting interest;

(f)sixth, to Cash Collateralize all LC Obligations;

(g)seventh, to all Loans, and to Secured Bank Product Obligations constituting Swap Obligations (including Cash Collateralization thereof) up to the amount of Reserves existing therefor;

(h)eighth, to all other Secured Bank Product Obligations; and

(i)last, to all remaining Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to payment of each category of Obligations only after Full Payment of amounts payable from time to time under all preceding categories. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be paid ratably among outstanding Obligations in the category. Monies and proceeds obtained from an Obligor shall not be applied to its Excluded Swap Obligations, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts obtained from other Obligors to preserve the allocations in each category. Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount of any Secured Bank Product Obligation and may request a reasonably detailed calculation thereof from a Secured Bank Product Provider. If the provider fails to deliver the calculation within five days following request, Agent may assume the amount is zero. The allocations in this Section are solely to determine the priorities among Secured Parties and may be changed by agreement of affected Secured Parties without the consent of any Obligor. This Section 5.5.2 is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Obligor, and no Obligor has any right to direct the application of payments or Collateral proceeds subject to this Section.

5.5.3Erroneous Application. Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been paid shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by a Secured Party, the Secured Party agrees to return it).
5.6Dominion Account
. The ledger balance in the Dominion Account as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations at the beginning of the next Business Day, during any Dominion Trigger Period. Any resulting credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers and shall be made available to Borrowers as long as no Default or Event of Default exists.

53


5.7Account Stated
. Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, loan account(s) evidencing the Debt of Borrowers hereunder. Any failure of Agent to record anything in a loan account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. Entries in a loan account shall be presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If information in a loan account is provided to or inspected by or on behalf of a Borrower, the information shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent Borrower Agent notifies Agent in writing within 30 days of specific information subject to dispute.
5.8Taxes.
5.8.1Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.

(a)All payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If Applicable Law (as determined by the applicable Withholding Agent in its discretion) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.9. For purposes of Sections 5.8 and 5.9, “Applicable Law” shall include FATCA and “Lender” shall include Issuing Bank.

(b)If any the Withholding Agent withholds or deducts Taxes, including backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment pursuant to Section 5.8.1(a), then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount that it withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to Applicable Law, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

5.8.2Payment of Other Taxes. Without limiting the foregoing, Obligors shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at Agent’s option, timely reimburse Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.
5.8.3Tax Indemnification.

(a)Each Obligor shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Obligor shall make payment within 10 days after written demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by a Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b)Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank (but only to the extent Obligors have not already paid or reimbursed Agent therefor and without limiting Obligors’ obligation to do so), (ii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

54


Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Bank by Agent or Borrower Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.8.4Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after payment by an Obligor of any Taxes pursuant to this Section, Borrower Agent shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing the payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Law to report the payment or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.
5.8.5Treatment of Certain Refunds. If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of Taxes that were indemnified by Obligors or with respect to which an Obligor paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay the amount of such refund to Borrower Agent (but only to the extent of indemnity payments or additional amounts actually paid by Obligors with respect to the Taxes giving rise to the refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Obligors shall, upon request by the Recipient, repay to the Recipient such amount paid over to Obligors (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Obligors if such payment would place it in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. In no event shall Agent or any Recipient be required to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.
5.9Lender Tax Information.
5.9.1Status of Lenders. Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments of Obligations shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent to enable them to determine whether such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such documentation (other than documentation described in Sections 5.9.2(a), (b), (d) and (e)) shall not be required if a Recipient reasonably believes delivery of the documentation would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.
5.9.2Documentation. Without limiting the foregoing,

(a)Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrower Agent or Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S.

55


federal backup withholding Tax; (b)Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrower Agent or Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BENE establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to other payments under the Loan Documents, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BENE establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii)executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BENE; or

(iv)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BENE, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more of its direct or indirect partners is claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such partner;

(c)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrowers or Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made;

(d)if payment of an Obligation to a Recipient would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code), such Recipient shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent, at the time(s) prescribed by Applicable Law and otherwise upon reasonable request, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation as may be appropriate for Borrowers or Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

56


Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof; and (e)On or before the date that Bank of America (and any successor or replacement Agent) becomes the Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to the Borrower Agent a duly executed copy of either (i) IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) or (ii) a U.S. branch withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form) evidencing its agreement with the Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. Person (with respect to amounts received on account of any Lender) and IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form) (with respect to amounts received on its own account).

5.9.3Redelivery of Documentation. If any form or certification previously delivered by a Recipient pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Recipient shall promptly update the form or certification or notify Borrower Agent and Agent in writing of its inability to do so.
5.10Nature and Extent of Each Obligor’s Liability.
5.10.1Joint and Several Liability. Each Obligor agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and the other Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations, except its Excluded Swap Obligations. Each Obligor agrees that its guaranty of the Obligations hereunder constitutes a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that such guaranty shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such guaranty is absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for any Obligations or any action or inaction by Agent or any other Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by Agent or any other Secured Party in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Obligor, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of Agent or any other Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of the Obligations.
5.10.2Waivers.

(a)Each Obligor expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent or any other Secured Party to marshal assets or to proceed against any other Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Obligor. Each Obligor waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of Obligations and waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to revoke any guaranty of Obligations as long as it is an Obligor. It is agreed among each Obligor, Agent and the other Secured Parties that the provisions of this Section are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agent and the other Secured Parties would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit. Each Obligor acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b)Agent and the other Secured Parties may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral or any Real Estate by judicial foreclosure or nonjudicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section.

57


If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, Agent or any other Secured Party shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Obligor or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Obligor consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Obligor might otherwise have had. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any other Secured Party to seek a deficiency judgment against any Obligor shall not impair any other Obligor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. Each Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Obligor’s rights of subrogation against any other Person. Agent may bid Obligations, in whole or part, at any foreclosure, trustee or other sale, including any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent but may be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any other Secured Party might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.10.3Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Obligor’s liability under this Section shall not exceed the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Obligor is primarily liable, as described in clause (c) below, or (ii) such Obligor’s Allocable Amount.

(b)If any Obligor makes a payment under this Section of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Obligor is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Obligor, exceeds the amount that such Obligor would otherwise have paid if each Obligor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Obligor’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Obligors, then such Obligor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Obligor for the amount of such excess, ratably based on their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any Obligor shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Obligor under this Section without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c)This Section shall not limit the liability of any Obligor to pay or guarantee Loans made directly or indirectly to it (including Loans advanced hereunder to any other Person and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Obligor), LC Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support its business, Secured Bank Product Obligations incurred to support its business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Obligor shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder. Agent and Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition Loans and Letters of Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of Loans and Letters of Credit to a Borrower based on that calculation.

58


(d)Each Obligor that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide funds or other support to each Specified Obligor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Obligor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.10.3 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section 5.10.3 shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations. Each Obligor intends this Section 5.10.3 to constitute, and this Section 5.10.3 shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Obligor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

5.10.4Joint Enterprise. Each Obligor has requested that Agent and Lenders make this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance Obligors’ business most efficiently and economically. Obligors’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Obligor is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group. Obligors believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease administration of the facility, all to their mutual advantage. Obligors acknowledge that Agent’s and Lenders’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Obligors and at Obligors’ request.
5.10.5Subordination. Each Obligor hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of its Obligations.

To the extent that any of the above-described Property is not subject to the UCC, each Obligor hereby pledges and collaterally assigns all of such Obligor’s right, title, and interest in and to such Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations to the full extent that such a pledge and collateral assignment is possible under relevant law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Collateral shall not include any Excluded Property; provided that Excluded Property shall not include any proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements of Excluded Property, including monies due or to become due to an Obligor (unless such proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements would otherwise constitute Excluded Property).

7.2Lien on Deposit Accounts; Cash Collateral.
7.2.1Deposit Accounts. Agent’s Lien hereunder encumbers all Deposit Accounts (other than Excluded Property), and all amounts credited thereto, of an Obligor, including sums in any blocked, lockbox, sweep or collection account. Each Obligor hereby authorizes and directs each bank or other depository to deliver to Agent, upon request, all balances in any Deposit Account maintained for such Obligor, without inquiry into the authority or right of Agent to make such request.
7.2.2Cash Collateral. Cash Collateral may be invested, at Agent’s Permitted Discretion (with the consent of Borrower Agent, provided no Event of Default exists), but Agent shall have no duty to do so, regardless of any agreement or course of dealing with any Obligor, and shall have no responsibility for any investment or loss.

In no event shall any Obligor’s or Parent’s grant of a Lien under any Loan Document secure its Excluded Swap Obligations.
7.7Further Assurances

Section 12.AGENT.

12.1Appointment, Authority and Duties of Agent.
12.1.1Appointment and Authority. Each Secured Party appoints and designates Bank of America as Agent under all Loan Documents. Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents. Any action taken by Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Agent of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral or under any Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. Agent alone is authorized to determine eligibility and applicable advance rates under the Borrowing Base, whether to impose or release any reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or issuance of a Letter of Credit have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Agent from liability to any Secured Party or other Person for any error in judgment.
12.1.2Duties. The title of “Agent” is used solely as a matter of market custom and the duties of Agent are administrative in nature only. Agent has no duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and in no event does Agent have any agency, fiduciary or implied duty to or relationship with any Secured Party or other Person by reason of any Loan Document or related transaction, even if a Default exists. The conferral upon Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.
12.1.3Agent Professionals. Agent may perform its duties through employees and agents. Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional.

97


Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.
12.1.4Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joining any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. In determining compliance with a condition for any action hereunder, including satisfaction of any condition in Section 6, Agent may presume that the condition is satisfactory to a Secured Party unless Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Secured Party before Agent takes the action. Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against Claims that could be incurred by Agent. Agent may refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting pursuant to instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1. In no event shall Agent be required to take any action that it determines in its discretion is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could expose any Agent Indemnitee to potential liability.
12.2Agreements Regarding Collateral and Borrower Materials
12.2.1Lien Releases; Care of Collateral. Secured Parties authorize Agent to release any Lien on any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (b) that is the subject of a disposition or Lien that Borrower Agent certifies in writing is a Permitted Disposition or a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over Agent’s Liens (and Agent may rely conclusively on such certificate without further inquiry); (c) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or (d) subject to Section 14.1, with the consent of Required Lenders. Secured Parties authorize Agent to subordinate its Liens to any Purchase Money Lien or other Lien entitled to priority hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement. Agent has no obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by an Obligor, or is cared for, protected or insured, nor to assure that Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral. To the extent required under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, each Secured Party hereby grants to Agent any required power of attorney to take any action with respect to Collateral or to execute any Loan Document on the Secured Party’s behalf.
12.2.2Possession of Collateral. Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Secured Party as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in Collateral held or controlled by it, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control. If a Secured Party obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
12.2.3Reports. Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders, when complete, any field examination, audit, appraisal or consultant report prepared for Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”). Reports and other Borrower Materials may be made available to Lenders by posting them on the Platform, but Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time. Each Lender agrees (a) that Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that Agent or any other Person performing an audit or examination will inspect only limited information and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books, records and representations; (b) that Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Borrower Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Borrower Materials; and (c) to keep all Borrower Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, not to distribute any Report or other Borrower Materials (or contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys and accountants), and to use all Borrower Materials solely for administration of the Obligations. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Borrower Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

98


12.3Reliance By Agent
. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy, e-mail or other electronic means) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act on any Communication and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.
12.4Action Upon Default
. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If a Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) or assert any rights relating to any Collateral. Agent is hereby authorized to file a proof of claim and vote claims for the Obligations in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code. At any foreclosure or other realization event with respect to the Collateral (including any 363 sale pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code), Agent shall be entitled to credit bid the Obligations and establish vehicles and procedures therefor.
12.5Ratable Sharing
. If any Secured Party obtains any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through set-off or otherwise, in excess of its ratable share of such Obligation, such Secured Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Secured Parties participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.2, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Secured Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the full amount thereof to Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction. No Secured Party shall set off against a Deposit Account without Agent’s prior consent.
12.6Indemnification
. EACH SECURED PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF AGENT). In Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties. If Agent is sued by any receiver, trustee or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to Agent by each Secured Party to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

99


12.7Limitation on Responsibilities of Agent
. Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents. Agent does not make any express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Liens, Loan Documents or Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents or Borrower Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.
12.8Successor Agent and Co-Agents.
12.8.1Resignation; Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower Agent. Required Lenders may appoint a successor that is (a) a Lender or Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrower Agent. If no successor is appointed by the effective date of Agent’s resignation, then on such date, Agent may appoint a successor acceptable to it in its discretion (which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role) or, in the absence of such appointment, Required Lenders shall automatically assume all rights and duties of Agent. The successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act. The retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties hereunder on the effective date of its resignation, but shall continue to have all rights and protections available to Agent under the Loan Documents with respect to actions, omissions, circumstances or Claims relating to or arising while it was acting or transferring responsibilities as Agent or holding any Collateral on behalf of Secured Parties, including indemnification under Sections 12.6 and 14.2, and all rights and protections under this Section 12. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor.
12.8.2Co-Collateral Agent. If appropriate under Applicable Law, Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Loan Document. Each right, remedy and protection intended to be available to Agent under the Loan Documents shall also be vested in such agent. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument or agreement that Agent may request to effect such appointment. If any such agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of the agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by Agent until appointment of a new agent.

100


12.9Due Diligence and Non-Reliance . Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations. No act by Agent, including any consent, amendment, acceptance of assignment or due diligence by Agent, shall be deemed to constitute a representation by Agent to any Secured Party as to any matter, including whether Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of their Affiliates) which may come into possession of Agent or its Affiliates. Each Lender represents and warrants that (a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, and (b) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course, is sophisticated with respect to making such decisions and holding such loans, and is entering into this Agreement for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities as set forth herein, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument. Each Lender agrees not to assert any claim in contravention of the foregoing.

12.10Remittance of Payments and Collections.
12.10.1Remittances Generally. Payments by any Secured Party to Agent shall be made by the time and date provided herein, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand and request for payment is made by Agent by 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day, then payment shall be made by the Secured Party by 3:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 1:00 p.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.
12.10.2Recovery of Erroneous Payments. Without limitation of any other provision herein, if at any time Agent makes a payment hereunder in error to any Secured Party, whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by Borrowers at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event each Secured Party receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Secured Party in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of repayment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Secured Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any defense of discharge for value (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount. Agent shall inform each Secured Party promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Secured Party was comprised, in whole or in part, of a Rescindable Amount.
12.10.3Distributions. If Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to an Obligor or other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party. If Agent is required to return any amounts applied by it to Obligations held by a Secured Party, such Secured Party shall pay to Agent, on demand, its share of the amounts required to be returned.

101


12.11Individual Capacities . As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms “Lenders,” “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if they were not Agent or Lenders hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to any Secured Party. In their individual capacities, Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

12.12Titles
. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated in connection with this credit facility as an “Arranger,” “Bookrunner” or “Agent” of any kind shall have no right or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event have any fiduciary duty to any Secured Party.
12.13Certain ERISA Matters.
12.13.1Lender Representations. Each Lender represents and warrants, as of the date it became a Lender party hereto, and covenants, from the date it became a Lender party hereto to the date it ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Obligors, that at least one of the following is and will be true: (a) Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(42) or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments or Loan Documents; (b) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments and Loan Documents; (c)(i) Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Section VI of PTE 84-14), (ii) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments and Loan Documents, (iii) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments and Loan Documents satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Section I of PTE 84-14, and (iv) to the best knowledge of Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Section I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments and Loan Documents; or (d) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Agent, in its discretion, and Lender.
12.13.2Further Lender Representation. Unless Section 12.13.1(a) or (d) is true with respect to a Lender, such Lender further represents and warrants, as of the date it became a Lender hereunder, and covenants, from the date it became a Lender to the date it ceases to be a Lender hereunder, for the benefit of, Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Obligor, that Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in its entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Commitments and Loan Documents (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Agent under any Loan Document).
12.14Bank Product Providers . Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by the Loan Documents, including Sections 5.5, 12, 14.3.3 and 14.17, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Obligors, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider’s Secured Bank Product Obligations.

102


12.15No Third Party Beneficiaries
. This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Obligors or any other Person. As between Obligors and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

Section 13.BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS.

13.1Successors and Assigns
. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Obligors, Agent, Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Obligor may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3. Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3. Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.
13.2Participations.
13.2.1Permitted Participants; Effect. Subject to Section 13.3.3, any Lender may sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, it shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, it shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if it had not sold such participating interests, and Borrowers and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.8 unless Borrowers agree otherwise in writing.
13.2.2Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantially all Collateral.
13.2.3Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register in which it enters the Participant’s name, address and interest in Commitments, Loans (and stated interest) and LC Obligations. Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person recorded in the register as the owner of the participation for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have an obligation to disclose any information in such register except to the extent necessary to establish that a Participant’s interest is in registered form under the Code.
13.2.4Benefit of Setoff. Each Participant shall have a right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by it. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

103


13.3Assignments.
13.3.1Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 (unless (i) such partial assignment is to a Lender, Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund or (ii) otherwise agreed by Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower Agent, in their discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver an Assignment to Agent for acceptance and recording. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including a pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from its obligations hereunder nor substitute the pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
13.3.2Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Agent of a fully executed and completed Assignment accompanied by a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion), the assignment specified therein shall be effective as provided in the Assignment as long as it complies with this Section 13.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new notes, if applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.9 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire reasonably satisfactory to Agent.
13.3.3Certain Assignees. No assignment or participation may be made to an Obligor, an Affiliate of an Obligor, a Defaulting Lender or one or more natural persons. Agent shall have no obligation to determine whether any assignment is permitted under the Loan Documents. Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender must be accompanied by satisfaction of its outstanding obligations under the Loan Documents in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Agent, including payment by the Defaulting Lender or Eligible Assignee of an amount sufficient upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or other methods acceptable to Agent in its discretion) to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities of the Defaulting Lender. If any assignment by a Defaulting Lender (by operation of law or otherwise) does not comply with the foregoing, the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until compliance occurs.
13.3.4Register. Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain (a) a copy (or electronic equivalent) of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it, and (b) a register for recordation of the names, addresses and Commitments of, and the Loans, interest and LC Obligations owing to, each Lender. Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders shall treat each Person recorded in such register as a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Agent may choose to show only one Borrower as the borrower in the register, without any effect on the liability of any Obligor with respect to the Obligations. The register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender, from time to time upon reasonable notice.

104


13.4Replacement of Certain Lenders
. If a Lender (a) within the last 120 days failed to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required Lenders consented, (b) is a Defaulting Lender, or (c) within the last 120 days gave a notice under Section 3.5 or requested payment or compensation under Section 3.7 or 5.8 (and has not designated a different Lending Office pursuant to Section 3.8), then Agent or Borrower Agent may, upon 10 days’ notice to such Lender, require it to assign its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s), pursuant to appropriate Assignment(s), within 20 days after the notice. Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment if the Lender fails to execute it. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents through the date of assignment.

Section 14.MISCELLANEOUS.

14.1Consents, Amendments and Waivers
14.1.1Amendment. No Modification of a Loan Document shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Obligor party to such Loan Document; provided, that:

14.1.2Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, Agent may, in consultation with Borrower Agent make or adopt Conforming Changes from time to time and any amendment or notice implementing such changes will become effective without further action or consent of any other party; provided, that Agent shall post or otherwise provide same to Borrowers and Lenders reasonably promptly after it becomes effective. No agreement of any Obligor shall be required for any Modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders, Issuing Bank and/or Agent as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to any agreement relating to fees or a Bank Product shall be required for Modification of such agreement, and no Secured Bank Product Provider (in such capacity) shall have any right to consent to Modification of any Loan Document. Any waiver or consent granted by Agent, Issuing Bank or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Agent of its behalf, and without further consent of any Lender (but with the consent of Borrowers and the Agent), to amend and restate this Agreement and other Loan Documents if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have been terminated, such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have be paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
14.1.3Corrections. Without action or consent by any other party to this Agreement, (a) Agent and Borrower Agent may amend a Loan Document to cure an ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error, or other defect in any provision, schedule or exhibit thereof; and (b) Agent may revise Schedule 1.1 to reflect changes in Commitments from time to time.
14.2Indemnity
. EACH OBLIGOR SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY OBLIGOR OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE. In no event shall any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that (i) is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Indemnitee or (ii) arises from any dispute solely among the Indemnitees and not from any act or omission of any Obligor or its Affiliates, other than Claims against any agent or arranger in their capacities as such. This Section 14.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
14.3Notices and Communications
14.3.1Notice Address. Subject to Section 14.3.2, all Communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Obligor, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3. In addition, a Communication from Agent to Lenders or Obligors may, to the extent permitted by law, be delivered electronically (i) by transmitting the Communication to the electronic address specified to Agent in writing by the applicable Lender or Borrower Agent from time to time, or (ii) by posting the Communication on a website and sending the Lender or Borrower Agent notice (electronically or otherwise) that the Communication has been posted and providing instructions (at such time or prior to delivery of such Communication) for viewing it. Each Communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged; or (d) if provided electronically by Agent to Lenders or Obligors, when the Communication (or notice advising of its posting to a website) is sent to the Lender’s or Borrower Agent’s electronic address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to Agent pursuant to Sections 2.1.4, 2.2, 3.1.2 or 4.1.1 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written Communication not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party. Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Obligors.

106


14.3.2Communications. Electronic and telephonic Communications (including e-mail, messaging, voice mail and websites) may be used only in a manner acceptable to Agent. Agent makes no assurance as to the privacy or security of electronic or telephonic Communications. E-mail and voice mail shall not be effective notices under the Loan Documents.
14.3.3Platform. Borrower Materials shall be delivered pursuant to procedures approved by Agent, including electronic delivery (if requested by Agent) to an electronic system maintained by it (“Platform”). Borrower Agent shall notify Agent of each posting of Borrower Materials on the Platform (which notice may be communicated electronically in accordance with Section 14.3.2) and the Borrower Materials on the Platform shall be deemed received by Agent only upon its receipt of such notice. Communications, Borrower Materials and other information relating to this credit facility may be made available to Secured Parties on the Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Platform nor the adequacy or functioning of the Platform, and expressly disclaims liability for any errors or omissions in the Borrower Materials or any issues involving the Platform. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY AGENT WITH RESPECT TO BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any liability to Obligors, Secured Parties or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) relating to use by any Person of the Platform, including any unintended recipient, nor for delivery of Borrower Materials and other information via the Platform, internet, e-mail, or any other electronic platform or messaging system. Agent may, but is not obligated to, make Communications available to Obligors and Lenders by posting them on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or other electronic platform.
14.3.4Public Information. Obligors and Secured Parties acknowledge that “public” information may not be segregated from material non-public information on the Platform. Secured Parties acknowledge that Borrower Materials may include Obligors’ material non-public information, which should not be made available to personnel who do not wish to receive such information or may be engaged in trading, investment or other market-related activities with respect to an Obligor’s securities.
14.3.5Non-Conforming Communications. Agent and Lenders may rely on any Communication purportedly given by or on behalf of an Obligor even if it is not made in a manner specified herein, incomplete or not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, vary from an earlier Communication or later confirmation. Each Obligor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any Communication purportedly given by or on behalf of any Obligor.

107


14.3.6Reliance on Communications. No Secured Party shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed .pdf or other electronic means). Secured Parties may rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting on, any Communication (which may be a fax, electronic message, internet or intranet website posting, or other distribution, or signed by an Electronic Signature) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof). Agent shall be entitled to rely on the e-mail addresses and telephone numbers provided by Obligors, Lenders and their authorized representatives. Each Obligor hereby waives (a) any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or other Communication based solely on the lack of a paper original copy thereof, and (b) waives any claim against any Indemnitee for liabilities arising from its reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures, including liabilities relating to an Obligor’s failure to use a security measure in connection with execution, delivery or transmission of an Electronic Signature.
14.4Performance of Obligors’ Obligations
. Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Obligors’ expense, pay any amount or do any act required of an Obligor under any Loan Documents (to the extent such Obligor has failed to do so on or prior to the date required for such performance) to (a) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to Agent by Obligors, promptly following demand therefor, with interest from the date incurred until paid in full, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. Any payment made or action taken by Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
14.5Credit Inquiries
. Agent and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.
14.6Severability
. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.
14.7Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms
. The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

108


14.8Execution ; Electronic Records. Any Loan Document, including any required to be in writing, may (if agreed by Agent) be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. An Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on each Obligor and other party thereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party, enforceable to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature were delivered. A Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. The parties may use or accept manually signed paper Communications converted into electronic form (such as scanned into pdf), or electronically signed Communications converted into other formats, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Agent and Lenders may, at their option, create one or more copies of a Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the Person’s business, and may destroy the original paper document. Any Communication in the form or format of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything herein, (a) Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form unless expressly agreed by it pursuant to procedures approved by it; (b) each Secured Party shall be entitled to rely on any Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of an Obligor without further verification and regardless of the appearance or form of such Electronic Signature; and (c) upon request by Agent, any Loan Document using an Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed original counterpart.

14.9Entire Agreement
. Time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations. The Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, among the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.
14.10Relationship with Lenders
. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. It shall not be necessary for Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, joint venture or similar arrangement, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.
14.11No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility
. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Obligors acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any arranging or other services by Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Obligors and their Affiliates, on one hand, and Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger, on the other hand; (ii) Obligors have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory, tax and other advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) Obligors are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Obligors, their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Obligors and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to Obligors or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Obligor hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

109

Obligors consent to the publication by Agent and Lenders of customary advertising material relating to transactions contemplated hereby, using the names, product photographs, logos or trademarks of Obligors and Subsidiaries. Agent and Lenders may disclose information regarding this Agreement and the credit facility hereunder to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Agent and Lenders in connection with the Loan Documents and Commitments. As used herein, “Information” means information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered. A Person required to maintain confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that accorded its own confidential information. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Bank acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of such information; and (iii) it will handle the material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein 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.

14.16Waivers
. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PARENT AND EACH OBLIGOR WAIVES (A) THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY (WHICH AGENT AND EACH SECURED PARTY HEREBY ALSO WAIVE) IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE OF ANY KIND RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, OBLIGATIONS OR COLLATERAL; (B) PRESENTMENT, DEMAND, PROTEST, NOTICE OF PRESENTMENT, DEFAULT, NON-PAYMENT, MATURITY, RELEASE, COMPROMISE, SETTLEMENT, EXTENSION OR RENEWAL OF ANY COMMERCIAL PAPER, ACCOUNTS, DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER AND GUARANTIES AT ANY TIME HELD BY AGENT ON WHICH PARENT OR AN OBLIGOR MAY IN ANY WAY BE LIABLE, AND HEREBY RATIFIES ANYTHING AGENT MAY DO IN THIS REGARD; (C) NOTICE PRIOR TO TAKING POSSESSION OR CONTROL OF ANY COLLATERAL; (D) ANY BOND OR SECURITY THAT MIGHT BE REQUIRED BY A COURT PRIOR TO ALLOWING AGENT TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES; (E) THE BENEFIT OF ALL VALUATION, APPRAISEMENT AND EXEMPTION LAWS; AND (F) NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE HEREOF.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVERS ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO EACH OTHER PARTY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT THEY ARE RELYING UPON THE FOREGOING IN THEIR DEALINGS WITH EACH OTHER. Each party has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.
14.17Acknowledgement Regarding Supported QFCs
. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
14.17.1Covered Party. If a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. If a Covered Party or BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes if the Supported QFC and Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

111

14.18Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties, each party hereto (including each Secured Party) acknowledges that, with respect to any Secured Party that is an Affected Financial Institution, any liability of such Secured Party arising under a Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority, and each party hereto agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by, (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liability which may be payable to it by such Secured Party; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under any Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers.
14.19Patriot Act Notice

Agent and Lenders hereby notify Obligors that pursuant to the Patriot Act, Agent and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Obligor, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Obligors shall, promptly upon request, provide all documentation and other information as Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender may request from time to time for purposes of complying with any “know your customer,” anti-money laundering or other requirements of Applicable Law, including the Patriot Act and Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
14.20Intercreditor Agreement.
14.20.1Acknowledgment. Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that it has received and reviewed the Intercreditor Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof as if such Lender was a signatory thereto. Each Lender (and each Person that agrees to become a Lender pursuant to Section 13) hereby authorizes and directs Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender and agrees that Agent, in its capacity thereunder, may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

112


14.20.2General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Agent’s Liens and the exercise of any right or remedy by Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Collateral are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement will control. Delivery of Collateral to the representative entitled thereto under the Intercreditor Agreement shall satisfy Obligors’ delivery requirements hereunder or any other Loan Document.
14.21NO ORAL AGREEMENT
