“Consolidated Interest Expense” means, as to any Person and with reference to any period, the interest expense of such Person and its Subsidiaries calculated on a consolidated basis for such period, including, without limitation, such interest expense as may be attributable to Capital Leases, Receivables Transaction Financing Costs, the discount or implied component of Off–Balance Sheet Liabilities, all commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to Letters of Credit and Net Xxxx-to-Market Exposure.
“Debt” of any Person means, without duplication, such Person’s (i) obligations for borrowed money, (ii) obligations representing the deferred purchase price of property or services (other than accounts payable arising in the ordinary course of such Person’s business payable on terms customary in the trade), (iii) obligations, whether or not assumed, secured by Liens or payable out of the proceeds or production of property now or hereafter owned or acquired by such Person, (iv) obligations which are evidenced by notes, acceptances, or other instruments (other than with respect to accounts payable arising in the ordinary course of such Person’s business payable on terms customary in the trade), (v) obligations of such Person to purchase securities or other property arising out of or in connection with the sale of the same or substantially similar securities or property, (vi) Capitalized Lease Obligations, (vii) obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, (viii) any Guaranty in respect of Debt of any other Person, (ix) Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities, (x) Receivables Transaction Attributed Indebtedness, and (xi) any other obligation for borrowed money or other financial accommodation which in accordance with GAAP would be shown as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet of such Person.

“Operating Leases” of a Person means any lease of property (other than a Capital Lease) by such Person as lessee which has an original term (including any required renewals and any renewals effective at the option of the lessor) of one year or more.
“Receivables Transaction Financing Cost” means such portion of the fees, service charges, and other costs, as well as all collections or other amounts retained by purchasers of the accounts or notes receivable and rights related thereto pursuant to a Qualified Receivables Transaction, which are in excess of the amounts paid to the Company and its Subsidiaries under any Qualified Receivables Transaction for the purchase of accounts or notes receivable and rights related thereto pursuant to such Qualified Receivables Transaction and are the equivalent of the interest component of the financing if the transaction were characterized as a secured lending transaction rather than a purchase.
