If the proceeds of the Additional Term A Advances exceed the aggregate amount paid in respect of the Tender Offer, the redemptions described in preceding clause (ii) and the Transaction Costs, or if no redemptions of the kind described in the preceding clause (ii) are contemplated, then such excess shall be used for general corporate purposes (including Permitted Acquisitions).

This Agreement shall apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Credit Agreement specifically referred to herein. After the Additional Term A Effective Date, any reference to the Credit Agreement in any Loan Document shall mean the Credit Agreement as modified hereby.
