For purposes of the foregoing, (a) the Applicable Rate shall be determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower based upon the Borrower’s annual or quarterly consolidated financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and (b) each change in the Applicable Rate resulting from a change in the Average 30-Day Domestic Availability, Average 30-Day Foreign Availability or Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be effective during the period commencing on and including the date of delivery to the Administrative Agent of such consolidated financial statements indicating such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change, provided that if such consolidated financial statements have not been delivered to Administrative Agent, the Average 30-Day Domestic Availability, Average 30-Day Foreign Availability and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be deemed to be in Category 3. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Administrative Agent determines that (a) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Average 30-Day Domestic Availability or Average 30-Day

Foreign Availability as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (b) a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Average 30-Day Domestic Availability or Average 30-Day Foreign Availability would have resulted in different pricing for any period, then (i) if the proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Average 30-Day Domestic Availability or Average 30-Day Foreign Availability would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; and (ii) if the proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Average 30-Day Domestic Availability or Average 30-Day Foreign Availability would have resulted in lower pricing for such period, an amount equal to the interest and fees that were paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period shall be applied as a credit to the next payment(s) of interest and/or fees payable hereunder; provided that if, as a result of any restatement or other event a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Average 30-Day Domestic Availability or Average 30-Day Foreign Availability would have resulted in higher pricing for one or more periods and lower pricing for one or more other periods (due to the shifting of income or expenses form one period to another period or any similar reason), then the amount payable by, or credited to, the Borrower pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable, shall be based upon the positive difference, if any, between the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for all applicable periods and the amount of interest and fees paid for all such periods. The Applicable Margin for ABR Loans shall be zero percent (0%).”

“‘Availability Period’ means (a) with respect to Domestic Loans, the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitments pursuant to the terms hereof, and (b) with respect to the Foreign Loans, the period from August 24, 2007 to, but excluding, the Foreign Loan End Date.”

The initial amount of each Lender’s Revolving Commitment is set forth on the Commitment Schedule, or in the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Lender shall have assumed its Revolving Commitment, as applicable.

“‘Revolving Exposure’ means, collectively, the Foreign Revolving Exposure and the Domestic Revolving Exposure.”

“‘Revolving Loan’ means any Loan, other than a Foreign Loan, made pursuant to Section 2.01.”

Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing or Foreign Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing or any Foreign Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of such Borrowing of

the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Each prepayment of a Foreign Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Foreign Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing.
