(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.06, in the event that any proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (18) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.06(a), the Company will be permitted to divide, classify or reclassify at the time of its incurrence such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.06. In addition, any Indebtedness originally classified as incurred pursuant to Section 4.06(a) or clauses (1) through (18) above may later be reclassified by the Company such that it will be deemed as having been incurred pursuant to another of such clauses or Section 4.06(a) above to the extent that such reclassified Indebtedness could be incurred pursuant to such new clause or Section 4.06(a) at the time of such reclassification (based on circumstances existing at the time of such reclassification). An item of Indebtedness may be divided or classified in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.06(a) and clauses (1) through (18) above (other than with respect to Indebtedness Incurred under clause (10)) without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness simultaneously Incurred pursuant to clauses (1) through (18) above when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.06(a). If any Contribution Debt is designated as incurred under any provision other than under Section 4.06(b)(16), the related issuance of Equity Interests may be included in any calculation under Section 4.07(a)(iii)(B). Subject to the foregoing, any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(1) shall be deemed for purposes of this covenant to have been incurred on the date such Indebtedness was first incurred until such Indebtedness is actually repaid, other than pursuant to “cash sweep” provisions or any similar provisions under any Credit Facility that provides that such Indebtedness is deemed to be repaid daily (or otherwise periodically).
(d) The amount of Indebtedness incurred in any foreign currency for purposes of this Indenture shall be converted into U.S. dollars at the time of first incurrence, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt, and the amount of such Indebtedness outstanding will not be deemed to change as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates after such date of incurrence. However, if the Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and the refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of the refinancing, the U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of the refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness being refinanced.
