On March 18, 2016, John Bean Technologies Corporation (the “ Company ”) and John Bean Technologies B.V., as borrowers, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the other lenders signatory thereto entered into a second amendment (the “ Second Amendment ”) to the Credit Agreement dated as of February 10, 2015 (the “ Credit Agreement ”). Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amendment, certain Lenders party to the Credit Agreement have agreed to increase their Commitments, such that the Aggregate Commitments from and after the effective date of the Second Amendment have increased from $450,000,000 to $600,000,000 and a Lender has agreed to become an Issuing Bank for the issuance of Letters of Credit. The Second Amendment modified provisions of the Credit Agreement that provide for an option to increase the Commitments further and issue additional Term Loans of up to $250,000,000 in the aggregate by adding a sub-limitation on increases to the individual Commitments to no more than $150,000,000. Except as otherwise specifically amended by the Second Amendment, all of the terms of the Credit Agreement remain the same.
