Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Third Amendment to Credit Agreement
On August 4, 2025, QuoteLab, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), and QL Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), each a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Third Amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated as of September 23, 2020, as amended by that certain First Amendment dated as of July 29, 2021 and that certain Second Amendment dated as of June 8, 2023 (as so amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Third Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, Holdings, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.
The Third Amendment amends the Existing Credit Agreement to, among other things, (a) provide for a one-year extension of the maturity date for the term loans of consenting lenders (such term loans, the “Extended Term Loans”, and such lenders, the “Extending Lenders”) under the Borrower’s existing senior secured term loan facility and (b) provide for a one-year extension of the maturity date for the commitments and related loans of the Extending Lenders (such commitments, the “Extended Revolving Commitments”) under the Borrower’s existing senior secured revolving credit facility.
As of the effective date of the Third Amendment, the Extending Lenders have agreed to extend the maturity date under the term loan facility with respect to $138.1 million in aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans, which Extended Term Loans will mature on July 29, 2027 (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day following such date). The remaining $13.3 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans under the term loan facility (the “Non-Extended Term Loans” and, together with the Extended Term Loans, the “Term Loans”) will mature on July 29, 2026 (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day following such date). The Term Loans amortize quarterly, beginning with December 31, 2021 and ending with (a) June 30, 2026, in the case of the Non-Extended Term Loans, and (b) June 30, 2027, in the case of the Extended Term Loans, by an amount equal to 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans initially made on July 29, 2021.
As of the effective date of the Third Amendment, the Extending Lenders have agreed to extend the maturity date under the revolving credit facility with respect to $45.6 million in aggregate amount of Extended Revolving Commitments and related loans ($4.6 million in aggregate principal amount of which are currently drawn), which Extended Revolving Commitments and related loans will mature on July 29, 2027 (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day following such date). The remaining $4.4 million in aggregate amount of revolving commitments under the revolving credit facility (the “Non-Extended Revolving Commitments”) and related loans ($0.4 million in aggregate principal amount of which are currently drawn) will mature on July 29, 2026 (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day following such date).
The foregoing description of the Third Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
