provided further, that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Additional Facilities may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Additional Facilities. (b) In the event that a Borrower desires to create an Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments, such Borrower will enter into an amendment with the lenders (who shall by execution thereof become Lenders hereunder if not theretofore Lenders) to provide for such Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments, which amendment shall set forth any terms and conditions of the Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments not covered by this Agreement as agreed by the applicable Borrower and such Lenders, and shall provide for the issuance of promissory notes to evidence the Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments if requested by the Lenders making advances under the Additional Facility or providing Additional Revolving Commitments (which notes shall constitute Notes for purposes of this Agreement), with such amendment to be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent to the extent the terms thereof are inconsistent with the terms of this Section 2.10(b) and of the other provisions of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10(a), (b) or (c) or any other provision of any Loan Document: (i) If the proceeds of any Additional Facility are intended to be applied to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, (A) the requirements of clause (x) of Section 2.10(a) above shall, at the election of Company, be determined as of the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into, (B) the representations and warranties required to be made in connection with the initial Loans made under such Additional Facility pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i) shall, at the election of Company, be limited to the Specified Representations and (C) to the extent that such Additional Facilities are to be incurred in reliance on clause (C) of Section 2.10(a) above, the Secured Leverage Ratio test specified therein shall, at the election of Company, be determined as of the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into. (ii) If Company has made an election under clause (i)(C) of this Section 2.10(d) for any Limited Condition Acquisition permitted pursuant to Section 8.3, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, dispositions, Investments, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Subordinated Debt, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant date of determination and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated except to the extent such calculation on a Pro Forma Basis would result in a lower ratio than if calculated without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions in connection therewith.
