Amendment No. 3 to Term Loan Agreement
On February 3, 2026, The Cooper Companies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 3 to Term Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment to 2021 Loan Agreement”), among the Company, as the borrower, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent, to amend the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2021 (as previously amended, the “2021 Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company, as the borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and PNC, as administrative agent. The Third Amendment to 2021 Loan Agreement modifies the 2021 Loan Agreement by, among other things, extending the maturity of $950 million of term loans to February 3, 2031 (with the maturity date for the $550 million of remaining term loans staying the same), removing the credit spread adjustment and increasing the cap on incremental term loans to the greater of $1.365 billion and 100% of consolidated EBITDA. The Third Amendment to 2021 Loan Agreement also implements that, at the Company’s option, the applicable rates for pricing can be determined based on the Company’s non-credit enhanced, senior unsecured long-term debt ratings or the existing basis of the Company’s ratio of consolidated net indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA.
