NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and
covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.Credit Document Amendments. The Credit Documents are hereby amended as
follows:

 

(a)Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is amended by inserting the following new
definitions in their correct alphabetical order:

 

“Amendment No. 5” shall mean Amendment No. 5 to this Agreement, dated as of

the Lenders party thereto, and the Administrative Agent.

 

“Amendment No. 5 Effective Date” shall mean the “Effective Date” under and as

“Replacement Rate” has the meaning assigned thereto in Section 2.10(d).

 

“Tranche B-4 Loan” shall have the meaning specified in Amendment No. 5.

 

“Tranche B-4 Loan Maturity Date” shall have the meaning specified in Amendment
No. 5.

 

(b)The definition of “Eurodollar Rate” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is
amended by deleting such definition in its entirety and replacing it with the
following:

 

“‘Eurodollar Rate’ shall mean, subject to the implementation of a Replacement
Rate in accordance with Section 2.10(d), for any Interest Period, the greater of
(i) an interest rate per annum equal to the rate per annum obtained by dividing
(a) the rate per annum (rounded upward to the nearest whole multiple of 1/100 of
1% per annum) as published by the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, a United
Kingdom company, or a comparable successor quoting service approved by the
Administrative Agent, as the London interbank offered rate for deposits in
Dollars at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Business Days prior to the
first day of such Interest Period for a term comparable to such Interest Period
or, if for any reason such rate is not such so published, the average (rounded
upward to the nearest whole multiple of 1/100 of 1% per annum, if such average
is not such a multiple) of the rate per annum at which deposits in Dollars is
offered by the principal office of the Reference Bank in London, England to
prime banks in the London interbank market at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two
Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period in an amount
substantially equal to the Reference Bank’s Eurodollar Loan comprising part of
such Borrowing to be outstanding during such Interest Period and for a period
equal to such Interest Period by (b) a percentage equal to 100% minus the
Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage for such Interest Period and (ii) 1.00% per
annum. If the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, a United Kingdom company, or
a comparable successor quoting service is unavailable, the Eurodollar Rate for
any Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the basis
of applicable rates furnished to and received by the Administrative Agent from
the Reference Bank two Business Days before the first day of such Interest
Period, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 2.8. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, unless otherwise specified in any amendment to this Agreement entered
into in accordance with Section 2.10(d), in the event that a Replacement Rate
with respect to Eurodollar Rate is implemented, then all references herein to
Eurodollar Rate shall be deemed references to such Replacement Rate.”

(c)The definition of “Permitted Inventory Financing Inventory” in Section 1.1 of
the Credit Agreement is amended by replacing the phrase “the purchase of which
is financed by Ally Financial Inc. or its Affiliates” in clause (a) therein with
“which is subject to a lien”.

 

(d)The definition of “Real Property Collateral” in Section 1.1 of the Credit
Agreement is amended by replacing the amount “1,000,000” therein with
“$5,000,000”.

 

(e)Article I of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
new Section 1.3 thereto and in connection therewith the table of contents shall
be amended to include a reference to “Section 1.3 Rates”:

 

“1.3 Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility
for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration,
submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of
‘Eurodollar Rate’.”

 

(f)Section 2.10(a) of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following
phrase at the beginning of such section: “Unless and until a Replacement Rate is
implemented in accordance with clause (d) below,”

 

(g)Article II of Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new
Section 2.10(d) thereto:

 

“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.10(a) above, if the
Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be
conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in
Section 2.10(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are
unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is
no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the
U.S. syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable
supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified
herein or any Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction
over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific
date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer
be used for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan
market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the
extent practicable (with the consent of the Borrower and as determined by the
Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in
other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise
consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest
rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall,
subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all
purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in
Section 2.10(a)(i), (a)(ii), or (a)(iii), occurs with respect to the Replacement
Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders through the
Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans
bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment
and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.10(d).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, Section 13.1), such amendment shall
become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to
this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received,
within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders,
written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required
Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such
amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular
provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects). To the extent the
Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this
clause (c), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with
market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice
is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement
Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative
Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the
Lenders).”

 

 3 

 

 

(h)Section 2.15(a) of the Credit Agreement is amended by (i) replacing each
reference to “Tranche B-3 Loans” therein with “Tranche B-4 Loans” and (ii)
replacing the reference to “Tranche B-3 Loan Maturity Date” with “Tranche B-4
Loan Maturity Date”.

before “(v)” and adding the following after the phrase “the Administrative
Agent’s Fee Letter may be amended or modified, or rights or privileges
thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto”:

 

“and (vi) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of
any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the
Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any
Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.10(d) in
accordance with the terms of Section 2.10(d)”

CONSENT (this “ Consent ”) to Amendment No. 5, dated as of November 17, 2017
(the “ Amendment ”), to the Credit Agreement dated as of May 8, 2012 (as
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time immediately prior
to the effectiveness of the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among
WABASH NATIONAL CORPORATION (the “Borrower”), the lenders party thereto and

“Administrative Agent”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used
herein shall have the meaning given to such term in the Credit Agreement or the

amendment of the Credit Agreement as described in the Amendment, (b)
acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Amendment together with all
exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto and (c) authorizes the Administrative
Agent, pursuant to authority granted to the Administrative Agent under the

Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to exchange or convert

the principal amount of such Lender’s Tranche B-3 Loans and the allocated amount
of Tranche B-4 Loans will be prepaid on the Effective Date and (ii) to the terms
of the Amendment, with all rights and obligations attendant thereto.

 

Post-Effectiveness Settlement Option:

 

¨ Mark this box to have 100% of the outstanding principal amount of your Tranche
