On February 2, 2026, Karman Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Third Amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), which amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2025 (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of May 27, 2025 and Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of October 24, 2025) by and among the Company, Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (“Citibank”), and the other parties thereto (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”).
Under the terms of the Third Amendment, the Company (i) refinanced its existing term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $502,800,000 to reduce the interest rate applicable thereto by 75 basis points to SOFR plus 2.75% and (ii) reduced the interest rate applicable to its revolving credit facility by 75 basis points for each level of its leverage-based pricing grid, the highest of such levels being set at SOFR plus 2.50%. In addition, following the refinancing of the existing term loans, the Company increased the principal amount of its term loans by $265,000,000, for a total principal amount of $767,800,000. The Company used the proceeds from the increase in the term loans to fund the Acquisition (see Item 8.01) as well as to provide additional working capital and liquidity to the Company and to pay related fees, commissions and expenses associated with the Third Amendment.
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 Third Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto and filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. Except as modified by the Third Amendment, the terms and conditions in the Credit Agreement remain the same as previously disclosed.
