Islands Branch), as the original administrative agent and

credit facility affords us as we continue to grow around the world,
and we thank each of the institutions involved for their commitment
and confidence in Shift4.”
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at
a rate per annum equal to, at Shift4 LLC’s option, either (x) a
term SOFR based rate (subject to a 0.0% floor), plus an applicable
margin of 2.00%, or (y) an alternate base rate (equal to the
highest of the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, the term
SOFR rate for an interest period of one month (subject to a 0.0%
floor) plus 1.00%, and the prime rate announced by the
administrative agent from time to time), plus an applicable margin
of 1.00%. The Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on
September 5, 2029.
