"plus a make-whole amount"
A make-whole amount is the cash payment a borrower must give investors when it pays off a bond or loan early, designed to compensate them for lost future interest. Think of it like an early-termination fee that equals the current value of the remaining scheduled payments (often calculated using a set interest rate) so investors are put “made whole”; it matters because it changes how costly early refinancing is and affects bond values and investor returns.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 2, 2026, McGrath RentCorp (the “Company”) entered into a First Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement (the “Amendment”) with PGIM, Inc., the holders of the Notes previously issued pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement, dated June 8, 2023 (as amended prior to the Amendment, the “Prior NPA”), among the Company and the other parties thereto, and the purchasers of the Series H Notes (as defined below). The Amendment amends the Prior NPA (as amended by the Amendment, the “Note Purchase Agreement”) to, among other things, provide for the issuance of the Series H Notes and modify certain terms of the Prior NPA. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Note Purchase Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) provide for the issuance and sale of the Company's Series H Senior Notes (the “Notes”), (ii) increase the aggregate amount of the Company's revolving private shelf facility to $350 million, and (iii) increase certain thresholds for events of default under the Note Purchase Agreement, including increasing the cross-default threshold from $10 million to $20 million and the threshold for certain judgments from $10 million to $20 million.

The Company may at any time prepay all or any portion of the Notes; provided that such portion is at least $5,000,000 (and increments of $100,000 in excess thereof). In the event of a prepayment, the Company will pay an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus a make-whole amount.
