(ii) The parties acknowledge and agree that the permitted Consolidated Capital Expenditure level set forth in clause (i) above shall be exclusive of the amount of Consolidated Capital Expenditures actually made with the proceeds of a cash capital contribution to Company (including the proceeds of issuance of equity securities) made by Parent from the issuance by Parent of its equity Securities after the Closing Date and specifically identified in a certificate delivered by an Authorized Officer of Company to Administrative Agent on or about the time such capital contribution is made; provided that, to the extent any such cash capital contributions constitute Net Securities Proceeds after the Closing Date, only that portion of such Net Securities Proceeds which is not required to be applied as a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4B(ii)(c) (or pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement) may be used for Consolidated Capital Expenditures pursuant to this clause (ii).

• Payments; Computations and Statements (a) The Borrowers will make each payment under this Agreement not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, to the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day will be credited to the Loan Account on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that for the purpose of computing interest charges for the Obligations during any time when springing cash dominion is in effect pursuant to Section 8.01(d), all items of payment (including customer remittances received into any Cash Management Accounts and applied to the Obligations under any cash dominion arrangements described in Section 8.01) shall be deemed applied by the Administrative Agent one (1) Business Day after (A) the Business Day following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such payments via wire transfer or electronic depository check or (B) in the case of payments received by the Administrative Agent in any other form, the Business Day such payment constitutes good funds. This approach is acknowledged by the parties to be an integral aspect of the price of the Lenders’ financing of the Borrowers and shall apply irrespective of the characterization of whether receipts are owned by the Borrowers or the Lenders. All payments shall be made by the Borrowers without set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, deduction or other defense to the Agents and the Lenders. Except as provided in Section 2.02, after receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal ratably to the applicable Lenders in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Shares and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, provided that the Administrative Agent will cause to be distributed all interest and fees received from or for the account of the Borrowers not less than once each month and in any event promptly after receipt thereof. The Lenders and the Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account of the Borrowers with any amount due and payable by the Borrowers under any Loan Document, provided that, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, any such charge in respect of out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses of the Agents and Lenders payable by the Borrowers shall occur no sooner than 15 days after the Administrative Borrower’s receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor. Each of the Lenders and the Borrowers agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make such charges whether or not any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or whether any of the conditions precedent in Section 5.02 have been satisfied. Any amount charged to the Loan Account of the Borrowers shall be deemed a Revolving Loan hereunder made by the Revolving Loan Lenders to the Borrowers, funded by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders and subject to Section 2.02 of this Agreement. The Lenders and the Borrowers confirm that any charges which the Administrative Agent may so make to the Loan Account of the Borrowers as herein provided will be made as an accommodation to the Borrowers and solely at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, provided that the Administrative Agent shall from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent, charge the Loan Account of the Borrowers with any amount not paid when due and payable under any Loan Document. Whenever any payment to be made or any report required to be delivered under any such Loan Document shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made, or such report shall be delivered on the next succeeding Business Day and if applicable, such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, all computations of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fees hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error. (b) The Administrative Agent shall provide each of the Administrative Borrowers, promptly after the end of each calendar month, a summary statement (in the form from time to time used by the Administrative Agent) of the opening and closing daily balances in the Loan Account of the Borrowers during such month, the amounts and dates of all Loans made to the Borrowers during such month, the amounts and dates of all payments on account of the Loans to the Borrowers during such month and the Loans to which such payments were applied, the amount of interest accrued on the Loans to the Borrowers during such month, any Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer for the account of the Borrowers during such month, specifying the face amount thereof, the amount of charges to the Loan Account and/or Loans made to the Borrowers during such month to reimburse the Revolving Loan Lenders for drawings made under Letters of Credit, and the amount and nature of any charges to the Loan Account made during such month on account of fees, commissions, expenses and other Obligations. All entries on any such statement shall be presumed to be correct and, thirty (30) days after the same is sent, shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

• End of Fiscal Years; Fiscal Quarters The Borrower will cause (i) its and each of its Domestic Subsidiaries’ fiscal years to end on December 31 of each calendar year and (ii) its and each of its Domestic Subsidiaries’ fiscal quarters to end on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each calendar year.

All such financial statements (other than the aforesaid Pro Forma Balance Sheet) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (other than as set forth therein), except, in the case of the quarterly statements, for the omission of footnotes, and certain reclassifications and ordinary end of period adjustments and accruals (all of which are of a recurring nature and none of which individually, or in the aggregate, would be material). (b) After giving effect to the Transactions, since September 30, 2003 (as disclosed in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for such quarter), there has been no Material Adverse Change. (c) On and as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the Transactions and to all Indebtedness being incurred or assumed in connection therewith, and Liens created by each party in connection therewith, (x) the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors taken as a whole (each of the foregoing, a "SOLVENT ENTITY") will exceed its debts; (y) each Solvent Entity has not incurred and does not intend to incur, nor believes that it will incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as such debts mature; and (z) each Solvent Entity will have sufficient capital with which to conduct its business. For purposes of this Section 4.5(c), "debt" means any liability on a claim, and "claim" means (i) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured or (ii) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, secured or unsecured.

• Payment of Outstanding Indebtedness, etc The Administrative Agent shall have received evidence that immediately after the making of the Loans on the Closing Date, all Indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement and any other Indebtedness not permitted by Section 7.04, together with all interest, all payment premiums and all other amounts due and payable with respect thereto, shall be paid in full from the proceeds of the initial Credit Event, and the commitments in respect of such Indebtedness shall be permanently terminated, and all Liens securing payment of any such Indebtedness shall be released and the Administrative Agent shall have received all payoff and release letters, Uniform Commercial Code Form UCC-3 termination statements or other instruments or agreements as may be suitable or appropriate in connection with the release of any such Liens.
