Term Loan now bears interest at Base Rate plus 0.75% per annum or Term SOFR plus 1.75% per annum, at the Borrower's election
Prepayment is allowed with no penalty, except a 1.0% fee on amounts prepaid from certain financing or repricing transactions within six months of the amendment's effective date
