The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”), which allows the Co-Borrowers to borrow up to $300.0 million on a revolving basis. The Senior Credit Facility provides for working capital loans, loans to fund acquisitions, swingline loans and letters of credit. The Senior Credit Facility expires on May 6, 2029, and all amounts outstanding thereunder are payable on the expiration date.

Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at the following rates depending on the classification of the borrowing provided that at no time shall the interest rate be less than one percent (1.0%) per annum:

•the Base Rate (a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus ½ of 1% and (c) Term SOFR for a one month tenor plus 1.0%, provided, that the Base Rate shall not at any time be less than 0%), plus an applicable margin of 1.75% to 2.25% depending on the type of borrowing and in each case based on the Company's Total Leverage Ratio.

•the Term SOFR (a rate equal to the forward looking secured overnight financing rate published by the SOFR administrator on the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any successor source with either a comparable tenor (for any calculation with respect to a SOFR loan) or a one month tenor (for any calculation with respect to a Base Rate loan)), plus an applicable margin of 2.75% to 3.25% depending on the type of borrowing and in each case based on the Company's Total Leverage Ratio.

The Co-Borrowers are required to pay a non-utilization fee of 0.375% quarterly in arrears on the unused portion of the Senior Credit Facility. In addition, the Co-Borrowers are subject to additional fees including an upfront fee, an annual agency fee, and letter of credit fees.

The Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, require the maintenance of specified ratios or conditions including:

•Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Company must maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.00. The Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of (a) Adjusted EBITDA minus (b) the sum of, among other things, earn-out payments, certain restricted payments, and taxes to (c) the sum of, among other things, consolidated interest expense and current maturities of long term debt.

•Maximum Total Leverage Ratio. The Company must maintain a ratio of (x) the sum of all consolidated indebtedness (excluding eligible subordinated debt and letter of credit obligations),

plus (y) gross amounts reserved for civil and regulatory liabilities identified in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to Adjusted EBITDA of no more than 3.00 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement contains various customary affirmative covenants that require, among other things, the Company to maintain insurance, pay its obligations and comply with law. The Credit Agreement also contains customary negative covenants that limit its ability to, among other things, incur certain additional indebtedness, grant certain liens, engage in certain asset dispositions, merge or consolidate, make certain payments, distributions and dividends, investments, acquisitions or loans, materially modify certain agreements, and enter into transactions with affiliates.

The Senior Credit Facility is secured by pledges of the equity of the portion of Spark HoldCo owned by the Company, the equity of Spark HoldCo’s subsidiaries, the Co-Borrowers’ present and future subsidiaries, and substantially all of the Co-Borrowers’ and their subsidiaries’ present and future property and assets, including intellectual property assets, accounts receivable, inventory and liquid investments, and control agreements relating to bank accounts.

The Company is entitled to pay cash dividends to the holders of its Series A Preferred Stock and Class A common stock so long as: (a) no default exists or would result therefrom; (b) the Co-Borrowers are in pro forma compliance with all financial covenants before and after giving effect thereto; and (c) the outstanding amount of all loans and letters of credit do not exceed the borrowing base limits.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and events of default. Events of default include, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults and cross-acceleration to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, certain events under ERISA, material judgments in excess of $5.0 million, certain events with respect to material contracts, and actual or asserted failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the Senior Credit Facility to be in full force and effect. A default will also occur if at any time W. Keith Maxwell III ceases to, directly or indirectly, beneficially own at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock on a combined basis, and a controlling percentage of the voting equity interest of the Company, and certain other changes in control. If such an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the facility and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.

Amended and Restated Subordinated Debt Agreement

In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, the Company entered into an amended and restated subordinated promissory note (Note No. 9) (the “Subordinated Debt Facility”) with Spark HoldCo and Retailco, LLC (“Retailco”).

The Subordinated Debt Facility allows the Company to draw advances in increments of no less than $1.0 million per advance up to $25.0 million through November 6, 2029. Borrowings are at the discretion of Retailco. Advances thereunder accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the prime rate as published by the Wall Street Journal plus two percent (2.0%) from the date of the advance. The Subordinated Debt Facility is subordinated in certain respects to the Senior Credit Facility pursuant to a subordination agreement. Retailco has the right to accelerate payment of principal and interest under the Subordinated Debt Facility upon the occurrence of certain change of control or sale transactions.

Retailco is owned indirectly by W. Keith Maxwell III, who serves as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. W. Keith Maxwell III, through Retailco and other entities, owns all of the Company’s common stock. The terms and conditions of the Subordinated Debt Facility were reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee of the Board consisting solely of the Company’s independent directors, and by the full Board following the review and approval of the Audit Committee.

A copy of the Subordinated Debt Facility is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The above description of the material terms of the Subordinated Debt Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
