(c) For purposes Period in the case of calculating the Secured Leverage Ratio and each of the Total Leverage Ratio, Specified Transactions that have been made by the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the applicable Test Period or subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any such Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section, then the Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Total Senior Secured Leverage Ratio Ratio. Interest on a Capitalized Lease shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Specified Transaction occurred deemed to accrue at the beginning of the applicable Test Period.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, when calculating the Secured Leverage Ratio and Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.14 at the end of a Test Period (excluding determinations of compliance with such Section on a pro forma basis pursuant to Sections 2.05(b)(ii), 2.14, 6.14 and 7.04), the definition of “Applicable Rate” and Sections 2.05(b)(i) and 2.05(b)(ii), the events described in Sections 1.10(b) and 1.10(c) above that occurred subsequent to the end of the Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect.

Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a London interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary may designate. For the avoidance of doubt, in giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of any Indebtedness the cash remaining on the balance sheet for purposes of calculating Consolidated Total Net Debt after giving effect to such incurrence and the application of the proceeds thereof shall be determined without regard to the proceeds of such Indebtedness.
(and may includee) In connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are expected exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, the making of Restricted Payments, the making of any permitted investment, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness (a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be realized satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis (i) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (ii) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated.
(f) Whenever any provision of this Agreement requires a specified Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, First Lien Leverage Ratio or Total Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis in connection with any action to be taken hereunder, the Borrower shall be certified in an officers’ certificate by such responsible financial or accounting officer delivered deliver to the Administrative Agent); provided that (A) Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportablecompliance or such Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, (B) actions to realize such amounts are taken within 12 months after the date of such Specified Transaction, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, calculations of the First Lien Leverage Ratio or Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of the definition of “Applicable Rate” and Section 2.05(b)(i) and 2.05(b)(ii) shall not include any cost savings, operating expense reductions or synergies that have not been actually realizedRatio.

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date such calculation is being made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Swap Contract applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency 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 the Borrower may designate.
(ce) For purposes of calculating On and after the Secured Leverage Ratio date pro forma effect is to be given to a Permitted Acquisition and on which the Total Leverage Ratio, Specified Transactions that have been made by the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the applicable Test Period Subsidiary is incurring or subsequent deemed to such Test Period and prior be incurring Indebtedness, which Permitted Acquisition has yet to or simultaneously with the event be consummated but for which a definitive agreement governing such Permitted Acquisition has been executed and remains in effect, such pro forma effect shall be deemed to continue at all times thereafter, and such Permitted Acquisition shall be deemed to have been consummated and all such Indebtedness incurred or deemed to be incurred in connection with such Permitted Acquisition shall be deemed to be outstanding, for purposes of determining ratio- based conditions and baskets (including baskets that are determined on the calculation basis of Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets) until such Permitted Acquisition is consummated or such definitive agreement is terminated (it being understood that any such ratio Indebtedness that is made actually incurred shall continue to be calculated on a treated as outstanding (until actually repaid) for such purposes notwithstanding the termination of such agreement or consummation of such Permitted Acquisition); provided that pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and the change in effect shall also be given to Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) in connection with any such Permitted Acquisition as if such Permitted Acquisition had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If since Period to the beginning of any such Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into extent the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since applicable ratio being so calculated would be greater than the beginning calculation of such Test Period ratio without giving such pro forma effect to the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA after giving effect to the preceding provisions of this clause (e), but in no event shall have made any Specified Transaction such pro forma effect of the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA be given effect to the extent it would result in the applicable ratio being less that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section, then the Secured Leverage Ratio and the Total Leverage Ratio shall be calculated calculation of such ratio without giving pro forma effect thereto for to such period as if such Specified Transaction occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test PeriodPermitted Acquisition.

For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower or the target of such Limited Condition Acquisition) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition, any other Specified Transaction or any other action being taken in connection therewith is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related Specified Transactions. If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCA Test Date 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 or basket 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.
