Certain Interpretative Provisions. (a) For purposes of all Financial Definitions and calculations in this Indenture, (i) there shall be excluded for any period the effects of purchase accounting (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries) in component amounts required or permitted by GAAP and related authoritative pronouncements (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries), as a result of the Transactions, any acquisition consummated prior to the Completion Date, any acquisitions permitted under this Indenture, or the amortization or write-off of any amounts thereof and (ii) effect shall not be given to (A) any election under Accounting Standards Codification 000-00-00 (previously referred to as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159) (or any other Accounting Standards Codification, International Accounting Standard or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of UK Holdco or any Subsidiary at “fair value,” as defined therein, (B) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification, International Accounting Standard or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof or (C) the application of Accounting Standards Codification 480, 815, 805 and 718 (to the extent these pronouncements under Accounting Standards Codification 718 result in recording an equity award as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet of UK Holdco and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the circumstance where, but for the application of the pronouncements, such award would have been classified as equity). Any calculation or determination in this Indenture that requires the application of GAAP across multiple quarters need not be calculated or determined using the same accounting standard for each constituent quarter. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture or in the definition of “Capitalized Lease Obligation”, unless UK Holdco elects otherwise, all obligations of any Person that are or would have been treated as operating leases for purposes of GAAP prior to the issuance by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on February 25, 2016 of an Accounting Standards Update (the “ASU”) shall continue to be accounted for as operating leases (and not be treated as financing or capital lease obligations or Indebtedness) for purposes of all Financial Definitions, calculations and deliverables under this Indenture (including the calculation of Consolidated Net Income and EBITDA) (whether or not such operating lease obligations were in effect on such date) notwithstanding the fact that such obligations are required in accordance with the ASU or any other change in accounting treatment or otherwise (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) to be treated as or to be re-characterized as financing or capital lease obligations or otherwise accounted for as liabilities in financial statements. Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of UK Holdco to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. (c) Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as UK Holdco may designate. (d) For purposes of covenant compliance, the amount of any Investment shall be the amount actually invested, without adjustment for subsequent increases or decreases in the value of such Investment but giving effect to any returns or distributions of capital or repayment of principal actually received in cash by such Person with respect thereto.
