Item 8.01 Other Events.


Purchase Agreement

On January 25, 2023, the Issuer and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Guarantors") entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Wells Fargo Securities LLC (the "Representative"), as representative of the several initial purchasers named therein (the "Initial Purchasers"), in connection with the offering (the "Notes Offering") of the Notes. The Issuer expects the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to be approximately $391.3 million, after deducting the Initial Purchasers' discount and estimated offering expenses. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to repay a portion of the amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facility.

The Notes were issued and sold to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereunder. The Initial Purchasers intend to resell the Notes only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes Offering is expected to close on February 1, 2023.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Issuer and the Guarantors and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. Additionally, the Issuer and the Guarantors have agreed to indemnify the Initial Purchasers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Initial Purchasers may be required to make because of any of those liabilities. Furthermore, the Issuer and the Guarantors have agreed with the Initial Purchasers not to offer or sell any debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Issuer or the Guarantors having more than one year until maturity for a period of 60 days after the date of the Purchase Agreement without the prior written consent of the Representative.

Certain of the Initial Purchasers and/or their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, commercial banking and investment banking services for the Issuer, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. For example, certain of the Initial Purchasers and/or their affiliates are lenders under the Issuer's revolving credit facility. In particular, an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC is the administrative agent under the Issuer's revolving credit facility. Accordingly, any such Initial Purchasers and/or their affiliates will receive a portion of the net proceeds from the Notes Offering. In addition, in the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Initial Purchasers and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments, including serving as counterparties to certain derivative and hedging arrangements, and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the Issuer.
