The Series 2025A Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1, Exhibit 2 or Exhibit 3 hereto, as applicable, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the Series 2025A Additional Purchaser(s) and the Company.

Chicago time, at not more than two closings (each individually a “Closing” and, collectively, the “Closings”).

At each Series 2025A Closing, subject to Section 4 hereof and Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company will deliver to each applicable Series 2025A Additional Purchaser the Series 2025A Notes to be purchased by such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser at such Series 2025A Closing in the form of a single Series 2025A Note (or such greater number of Series 2025A Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser may request) dated the date of such Series 2025A Closing and registered in such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser’s name (or in the name of such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser’s nominee), against delivery by such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company pursuant to the applicable funding instructions in Section 4.10 of the Note Purchase Agreement.

Series 2025A Closing, the Company shall fail to tender such Series 2025A Notes to any Series 2025A Additional Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to any Series 2025A Additional Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser shall, at such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser’s election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.
4. The obligation of each Series 2025A Additional Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Series 2025A Notes to be sold to such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser at a Series 2025A Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Series 2025A Additional Purchaser’s satisfaction, prior to the applicable Series 2025A Closing, of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement with respect to the Series 2025A Notes to be purchased at such Series 2025A Closing as if each reference to “2020A Notes” or “Notes,” “Closing” and “Purchaser” set forth therein was modified to refer to “Series 2025A Notes,” “Series 2025A Closings” and “Series 2025A Additional Purchaser” (each as defined in this Supplement) and to the following additional conditions:
(a) Except as supplemented, amended or superseded by the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit A hereto, each of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be correct as of the applicable Series 2025A Closing Date (except for representations and warranties which apply to a specific earlier date which shall be true as of such earlier date (other than the Closing Date for an earlier issued Series or tranche) or as of the date specified in Exhibit A to the extent such provision is superseded in Exhibit A); provided that the Company shall be permitted to make additions and deletions to any of Schedules 5.4, 5.5 and 5.15 after the date of this Supplement but prior to the applicable Series 2025A Closing Date, so long as the Company shall have provided updated copies of the relevant Schedules to such Purchaser, reasonably acceptable to such Purchaser, not less than five Business Days prior to such Series 2025A Closing Date.

(iii) a certificate of the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of each Subsidiary Guarantor dated the date of the applicable Series 2025A Closing certifying as to the due organization, continuing existence and good standing of such Subsidiary Guarantor and the due authorization by all requisite action on the part of such Subsidiary Guarantor of the execution and delivery of such Subsidiary Guaranty and the performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of its obligations thereunder; and

(e) In the case of the Series 2025A Second Closing, the transactions contemplated herein with respect to the Series 2025A First Closing shall have been consummated in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, except to the extent of any failure of such transactions so to have been consummated that was caused by any failure of any Series 2025A Additional Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder.

Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 10 Business Days. If the holders of more than 20% of the principal amount of the Notes of the applicable Series then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such Series of Notes of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of such Series of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPRESENTATIONS
The Company represents and warrants to each Additional Purchaser that except as hereinafter set forth in this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement (other than representations and warranties that apply solely to a specific earlier date which shall be true as of such earlier date and other than the Section references hereinafter set forth) is true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof with respect to the Series 2025A Notes with the same force and effect as if each reference to “the Notes” set forth herein or therein was modified to refer to the “Series 2025A Notes” and each reference to “this Agreement” therein was modified to refer to the Note Purchase Agreement as supplemented by the Supplement. The Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections of the Note Purchase Agreement which are supplemented hereby:
Section 5.3. Disclosure. This Agreement, the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 of this Supplement and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Series 2025A Additional Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company prior to October 17, 2025 in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3 of this Supplement (this Agreement and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Series 2025A Additional Purchaser being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2024, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.
Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates.
(a) Schedule 5.4 of this Supplement contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists as of the applicable Series 2025A Closing Date of (i) the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary and whether such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor, and (ii) the Company’s directors and senior officers.
(d) No Subsidiary is subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.
EXHIBIT A
(to Supplement)
Supplemental Representations
Section 5.5. Financial Statements; Material Liabilities. The Company has delivered to each Series 2025A Additional Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.5 of this Supplement. All of such financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes, but excluding all financial projections, pro forma financial information and other forward-looking information) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and lack of footnotes).
Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Series 2025A Notes or any substantially similar debt Securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy the Series 2025A Notes or any substantially similar debt Securities from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Series 2025A Additional Purchasers and not more than seventy-five (75) other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Series 2025A Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Series 2025A Notes to the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any Securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.
Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Series 2025A Notes hereunder for the repayment of indebtedness and other general corporate purposes of the Company and its Subsidiaries and as otherwise set forth in the Disclosure Documents. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series 2025A Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any Securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 5% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 5% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.
Section 5.15. Existing Indebtedness; Future Liens.
(a) Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15 of this Supplement sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2025, since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2025, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.
-2-
(b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15 (as may be updated by the Company prior to the applicable Series 2025A Closing Date), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien that secures Indebtedness or to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien that secures Indebtedness.
(c) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any provision contained in, any instrument evidencing Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary, any agreement relating thereto or any other agreement (including its charter or any other organizational document) which limits the amount of, or otherwise imposes restrictions on the incurring of, Indebtedness of the Company, except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15 (as may be updated by the Company prior to the applicable Series 2025A Closing Date).
