“(iii) At such time as Borrower provides financial statements under Section 5.6(b) of this Agreement with respect to the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, Borrower shall provide to Lender such information as Lender reasonably requires reflecting that Borrower would have been in compliance with Section 7.1 of this Agreement if cash dividends paid or to be paid during the fiscal quarter in which such financial statements are to be delivered under Section 5.6(b) had been made during such immediately preceding fiscal quarter;
(iv) Any such cash dividend paid shall be treated as a distribution for purposes of this Agreement; and
