For the avoidance of doubt, if any of such ratios or amounts are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or amount (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrowers or the person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction), at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the relevant transaction or action is permitted to be consummated or taken; provided that if a Borrower makes such election, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to any transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earliest of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, the 120th day following the signing of the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction and the date that the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such subsequent transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

in each case, at the option of the Lead Borrower (the Lead Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into, the date an irrevocable repayment or prepayment notice is given with respect thereto, or at the time of declaration thereof, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”) (provided that with respect to any required calculation of the Payment Conditions on the LCT Test Date, such calculation shall be effective only in the event that such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated within 180 days following the LCT Test Date), and if, after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Limited Condition Transaction, the Lead Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test, representations, warranties, defaults, specified defaults, events of default, or basket, such ratio, test, representations, warranties, defaults, specified defaults, events of default, or basket (including with respect to satisfaction of the Payment Conditions in connection therewith) shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Lead Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would have failed to have been satisfied as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Total Assets, Consolidated Total Debt, Consolidated Interest Expense, or DB1/ 98023701.7

applicable LCT Test Date, Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in exchange rates or in EBITDA or Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios, baskets or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations.
