For purposes of determining the Designated Basis Points for computing the Direct Purchase Rate and the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate:
(a) The Designated Basis Points and the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be determined on the Closing Date based on the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio computed on such date pursuant to a certificate to be delivered on the Closing Date.
(b) The Designated Basis Points and the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be recomputed as of the end of each Reference Period based on the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio. Any increase or decrease in the Designated Basis Points and the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate Fee Rate computed as of such Reference Period shall be effective on the date on which the Certificate evidencing such computation is due to be delivered under Section 6.01(i)(iv).
(c) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period
7
over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, under Article V. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
