The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility in an initial principal amount of $325.0 million ("Term Loan Credit Facility"), which was borrowed in full on the Closing Date with an original issue discount of 1.00%. The Company will use the net proceeds of the Term Loan Credit Facility for capital expenditures (including major scheduled turnaround costs) and to pay fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with the Term Loan Credit Facility. The borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Facility may be repaid or prepaid in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Credit Facility as further described below, but once repaid or prepaid, may not be reborrowed.
Interest Rate
: At the option of the Borrowers, loans under the Term Loan Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on the Term SOFR (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) plus 4.00% per annum, or an alternate base rate, plus 3.00%.
Amortization and Final Maturity
: The Term Loan Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers to make scheduled quarterly principal amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the initial term loans, with a balance of the principal due on the scheduled maturity date of December 30, 2027.
Mandatory and Voluntary Prepayments
: In addition, the Term Loan Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions and the intercreditor agreement discussed below, with (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds of non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property by the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers' restricted subsidiaries and 100% of the net cash proceeds from certain insurance and condemnation events with respect to the Company's assets, in each case, subject to certain thresholds and reinvestment rights, and (ii) 100% of the Company's and its restricted subsidiaries' net cash proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of debt obligations for borrowed money not permitted under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.
If (i) the Borrowers (a) make any voluntary prepayment of the loans (other than in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement)), (b) make any mandatory prepayment of the loans upon the issuance or incurrence of debt obligations for borrowed money not permitted under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (other than in connection with a Change of Control) or (c) make a prepayment of the loans under the Term Loan Credit Facility in connection with a repricing transaction, (ii) the loans are accelerated or (iii) the loans are assigned due to the Borrowers' rights to replace a lender, in any case, within one year after the Closing Date, the Borrowers will pay a call premium on such prepaid amount or on the amount outstanding at the time a repricing, acceleration or assignment of the loans occurs. The call premium is 2.0% from the Closing Date up to (but not including) the date that is six months after the Closing Date and 1.0% from the date that is six months after the Closing Date up to (but not including) the date that is one year from the Closing Date.
Guarantees and Security
: Pursuant to certain guaranty and security agreements, the obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Borrowers' direct and indirect, existing and future, wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Term Loan Credit Facility and the related guarantees are secured by a second priority lien over substantially all of the Borrowers' and each guarantor's inventory, accounts and payment intangibles, chattel paper, deposit and securities accounts and related books, records, instruments and other personal property, subject to certain customary exceptions (the "ABL Priority Collateral"), and a first priority lien over substantially all of the Borrowers' and each guarantor's other assets, including all of the equity interests of any subsidiary held by the Borrowers or any guarantor and certain real property owned by the Borrowers and the guarantors (such real property and equity interests, the "Term Priority Collateral"), in each case subject to certain customary exceptions.

Certain excluded assets will not be included in the Term Priority Collateral and the ABL Priority Collateral.
Restrictive Covenants and Other Matters
: The Term Loan Credit Facility requires the Borrowers to comply with certain customary negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict the ability of the Borrowers and guarantors to incur indebtedness or make guarantees of indebtedness, incur liens, make investments, loans and acquisitions, dispose of assets, engage in a merger, consolidation or liquidation, pay dividends, enter into affiliate transactions, issue equity interests, or create subsidiaries and unrestricted subsidiaries. Additionally, the Term Loan Credit Facility includes a mechanism pursuant to which certain newly formed subsidiaries of the Borrowers will be joined as loan parties to the Term Loan Credit Facility.

default. If an event of default occurs and is not cured or waived, the lenders under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.
