Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio test. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated without regard to the incurrence of any Indebtedness under any revolving facility or letter of credit facility (1) immediately prior to or in connection therewith or (2) used to finance working capital needs of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as reasonably determined by the Issuer). Any calculation or measure that is determined with reference to the Issuer’s financial statements (including, without limitation, EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Debt Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charges, and Section 4.07(a)(B)(1) hereof) may be determined with reference to the financial statements of any Parent Entity of the Issuer instead, so long as such Parent Entity does not hold any material assets other than, directly or indirectly, the Equity Interests of the Issuer (as determined in good faith by the Issuer).
Certain Compliance Calculations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on any ratio based exceptions, thresholds and baskets, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other exceptions, thresholds or baskets (other than ratio based baskets) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant ratio based test.
Certain Compliance Calculations. (a) If any baskets, thresholds or exceptions determined by reference to a fixed currency amount or a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA (“fixed baskets”) are intended to be utilized together with any baskets, thresholds or exceptions determined by reference to the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio or any other financial ratio or metric (a “ratio-based basket”) in a single transaction or action or series of related transactions or actions (for the purposes of this paragraph, a “Relevant Transaction”): (x) amounts available to be incurred under the applicable ratio-based baskets shall be calculated without giving effect to amounts to be incurred under the applicable fixed baskets in connection with such Relevant Transaction and (y) full pro forma effect shall be given to all increases to Consolidated EBITDA and repayments or discharges of Debt in connection with such Relevant Transaction in accordance with this Indenture.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio test.
Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness is incurred, assumed or issued or any Lien is incurred or assumed in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Interest Coverage Ratio or Section 4.08(a) or Section 4.08(b), such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, assumption, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Interest Coverage Ratio or Section 4.08(a) or Section 4.08(b)) on the same date.
Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture under a restrictive covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Senior Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), in a single transaction or action or series of related transactions or actions (for the purposes of this Section 1.19, a “Relevant Transaction”), the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof and the uses of such proceeds) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such Relevant Transaction.
Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred, assumed or issued, any Lien is incurred or assumed, any Restricted Payment is made or other transaction is undertaken (including a Limited Condition Transaction) in reliance on a ratio basket based on Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Senior Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio, Total Indebtedness Leverage Ratio or other ratio-based test, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other non-ratio-based basket substantially concurrently. Each item of Indebtedness that is incurred, assumed or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, assumed, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Senior Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio, Total Indebtedness Leverage Ratio or other ratio-based test. If a proposed action, matter, transaction or amount (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one applicable basket, permission or threshold under the Indenture, the Company shall be entitled to divide or classify or later divide or reclassify (based on circumstances existing on the date of such reclassification) such action, matter, transaction or amount (or a portion thereof) between such baskets, permission or thresholds as it shall elect from time to time.
Certain Compliance Calculations. (a) For purposes of determining compliance at any time with Section 4.07 and Section 4.09 and one or more clauses contained in the definitions of “Asset Sale,” “Permitted Investments” and “Permitted Liens,” in the event that any Indebtedness, Restricted Payment, Asset Sale, Investment or Lien or portion thereof, as applicable, at any time meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of transactions or items permitted pursuant to any clause contained in the definition of “Permitted Liens,” any clause contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments,” Section 4.09(a) or any clause under Section 4.09(b) (other than clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) (in the case of Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Senior Secured Credit Facilities on the Issue Date (after giving effect to the Incremental Joinder)), any clause contained in the definition of “Asset Sale”, and/or Section 4.07(a) or any clause of Section 4.07(b) (each of the foregoing, a “Reclassifiable Item”), the Parent, in its sole discretion, may, from time to time, divide, classify or reclassify such Reclassifiable Item (or portion thereof) under one or more clauses of each such section and will only be required to include such Reclassifiable Item (or portion thereof) in any one category; provided that, upon delivery of any consolidated financial statements required pursuant to Section 4.03 following the initial incurrence or making of any such Reclassifiable Item, if such Reclassifiable Item could, based on such consolidated financial 102 statements, have been incurred or made in reliance on either (i) Section 4.09(a) or (ii) clause (1)(b) of Section 4.09(b) (in the case of Indebtedness) or any “ratio-based” basket or exception (in the case of all other Reclassifiable Items), such Reclassifiable Item shall automatically be reclassified as having been incurred or made under the applicable provision of Section 4.09 or such “ratio-based” basket or exception, as applicable. It is understood and agreed that any Indebtedness, Restricted Payment, Asset Sale, Investment and/or Lien need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of Indebtedness, Restricted Payment, Asset Sale, Investment and/or Lien described in Section 4.07 and Section 4.09 and one or more clauses contained in the definitions of “Asset Sale,” “Permitted Investments” and “Permitted Liens,” respectively, but may instead be permitted in part under any combination thereof or under any other available exception.
Certain Compliance Calculations. (a) Unless otherwise specified herein, the baskets set forth in this Indenture shall be tested solely at the time of consummation of the relevant transaction or action utilizing any of such baskets and, for the avoidance of doubt, if any of such baskets are exceeded as a result of fluctuations to Total Assets or Consolidated EBITDA after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose, such baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. For purposes of determining whether the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Lien or the making of any Investment, Restricted Payment or prepayment or other satisfaction of any Subordinated Obligation complies with any basket that is based upon the greater of a specified U.S. dollar amount and a percentage of Total Assets or Consolidated EBITDA, Total Assets and/or Consolidated EBITDA shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis. U.S. dollars shall be the currency of calculation for all financial ratios. For purposes of determining whether the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Lien complies with a ratio test that is based upon the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, First Lien Net Debt Leverage Ratio or Secured Net Debt Leverage Ratio, the proceeds of the Indebtedness being incurred will be excluded from the calculation of Consolidated Coverage Ratio, First Lien Net Debt Leverage Ratio or Secured Net Debt Leverage Ratio, as applicable.
Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is created, any Restricted Payment is made or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Secured Leverage Ratio or Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other non-ratio-based basket within the same covenant substantially concurrently. Each item of Indebtedness that is incurred or issued, each Lien created and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Secured Leverage Ratio or Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio test. If a proposed action, matter, transaction or amount (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one applicable basket, permission or threshold within an applicable covenant under this Indenture, the Company shall be entitled to divide or classify or later divide or reclassify (based on circumstances existing on the date of such reclassification) such action, matter, transaction or amount (or a portion thereof) between such baskets, permission or thresholds within such covenant as it shall elect from time to time.
