The Extension Agreement extends the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from March 16, 2027, to March 16, 2028. All other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect

Some of the lenders under the Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, commercial and investment banking services for us, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. Certain affiliates of the lenders under the Credit Agreement were underwriters of our prior underwritten note and equity issuances and may serve as underwriters in any future note and/or equity issuances. In addition, certain of the lenders under the Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates act as dealers in connection with our commercial paper program, and also as managers, forward purchasers, and/or forward sellers under our at-the-market equity program.

The foregoing description of the Extension Agreement is not complete and is in all respects subject to the actual provisions of the Extension Agreement, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated by reference herein.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

**<u>R E C I T A L S</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Reference is made to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 16, 2021, among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 16, 2022 (as further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "***Credit Agreement***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. This Agreement is being executed to evidence Borrower's requested extension of the Maturity Date from March 16, 2027 to March 16, 2028 pursuant to *Section 2.15* of the Credit Agreement (the "***Extension***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Each of the Consenting Lenders is entering into this Agreement in order to evidence its consent to the Extension.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1. Consent to Extension.** Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in ***Paragraph 2*** below, each Consenting Lender hereby consents to the Extension, and effective as of the Extension Effective Date, the Maturity Date applicable to each Consenting Lender is March 16, 2028.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness.** This Agreement and the Extension shall be effective as of the date hereof, provided that the Administrative Agent shall have received the following (a) counterparts of this Agreement, executed by the Borrower, and Lenders holding more than 50% of the Aggregate Commitments (calculated in accordance with *Section 2.15* of the Credit Agreement), (b) a certificate of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary dated as of the date hereof containing the certifications required by *Section 2.15(f)(i)(A)* of the Credit Agreement, (c) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower dated as of the date hereof containing the certifications required by *Section 2.15(f)(i)(B)* of the Credit Agreement, and (c) a fee in the amount separately agreed by the Borrower, for the account of each Consenting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3. Affirmation and Ratification of Loan Documents.** The Borrower hereby (a) ratifies and affirms each Loan Document to which it is a party (as modified by the Extension), (b) agrees that all of its obligations and covenants under each Loan Document to which it is a party shall remain unimpaired by the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other documents and instruments executed in connection herewith, and (c) agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party (as modified by the Extension) shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement is a Loan Document.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4. Miscellaneous.** (a) Headings and captions may not be construed in interpreting provisions; (b) this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York; and (c) this Agreement may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including, without limitation, facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. This Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by Administrative Agent of a manually-signed paper communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into .pdf format), or an electronically signed communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, TOGETHER WITH THIS AGREEMENT, REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
