“(a)    Financial Statements.

(i) Quarterly Reporting on the Obligors. Within 60 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters in each year of the Co-Issuers, commencing with the first fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021, the Co-Issuers shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and KBRA (so long as it is a Rating Agency for any Series of Notes) a copy of the unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements of the Obligors for such quarter, prepared in accordance with GAAP (or otherwise in accordance with clause (iv) of this Section 7.02(a)), together with a certification executed by an Executive Officer of the Co-Issuers to the effect set forth in Section 7.02(a)(v) and a Compliance Certificate.

(ii) Annual Reporting on the Obligors. Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, the Co-Issuers shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and KBRA (so long as it is a Rating Agency for any Series of Notes) the consolidated financial statements of the Obligors for such fiscal year, prepared in accordance with GAAP (or otherwise in accordance with clause (iv) of this Section 7.02(a)) consistently applied for the Obligors for the full fiscal year, accompanied by an unqualified report by an independent certified public accounting firm of national standing, together with a certification executed by an Executive Officer of the Co-Issuers to the effect set forth in Section 7.02(a)(v) and a Compliance Certificate.

The Co-Issuers shall maintain full and accurate books of accounts and other records reflecting the results of the operations on a consolidated basis.

(v) Certifications of Financial Statements and Other Documents, Compliance Certificate.

In addition, where this Base Indenture requires a “Compliance Certificate”, the Person required to submit the same shall deliver a certificate duly executed on behalf of such Person by an Executive Officer of the applicable Obligor, upon which the Indenture Trustee may rely, stating that, to such Executive Officer’s Knowledge after due inquiry, there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, or if any of the foregoing exists, specifying the same in detail.
