In the event and to the extent that immediately following any Asset Sale the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company or the Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries from such Asset Sale, plus the Net Cash Proceeds of any other Asset Sale(s) which occurred (i) on or after the Issue Date and (ii) within the 360-day period proceeding such Asset Sale, exceed 10% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, the Indenture provides that within 360 days following such Asset Sale, the Net Cash Proceeds therefrom (the "Asset Sale Amount") shall be: (1) invested in assets and property (except in connection with the acquisition of a Subsidiary which is a Guarantor in a Related Business, other than notes, bonds, obligation and securities) which shall immediately constitute or be a part of a Related Business of the Company or the Parent or such Subsidiary (if it continues to be a Subsidiary) immediately following such transaction, or (2) used to retire Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement and to permanently reduce the amount of such Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.7(b) of the Indenture. Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds, the Company or the Parent may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. The accumulated Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales not applied as set forth above shall constitute "Excess Proceeds." Within 30 days after the date that the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10 million, which date shall not be prior to 390 days after the Asset Sale that generated such Excess Proceeds, the Company shall apply an amount (the "Asset Sale Offer Amount") equal to the Excess Proceeds to the repurchase of the Notes and such other Indebtedness ranking on a parity with the Notes and with provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Indebtedness with the proceeds from such Asset Sale pursuant to a cash offer (subject only to conditions required by applicable law, if any) (pro rata in proportion to the respective principal amounts (or accreted values in the case of Indebtedness issued with an original issue discount) of the Notes and such other Indebtedness then outstanding) (the "Asset Sale Offer") at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value in the case of Indebtedness issued with an original issue discount) (the "Asset Sale Offer Price") together with accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of payment. Each Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for 20 Business Days following its commencement (the "Asset Sale Offer Period").
Sale and Leaseback Transactions The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the Subsidiaries to, enter into any arrangement, directly or indirectly, whereby it shall sell or transfer any property, real or personal, used or useful in its business, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, and thereafter rent or lease such property or other property that it intends to use for substantially the same purpose or purposes as the property sold or transferred.
