(b)

In the event that there shall have occurred any acquisition or disposition of a business or a business unit during any period for which Consolidated EBITDA is to be determined, such determination shall be made on a pro forma basis (in accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933) as if such acquisition or disposition and any related incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness had occurred on the first day of such period."
