The Borrower hereby agrees that if the Administrative Agent at any time takes any action set forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Pool Receivables and the Borrower hereby further agrees to take any other action that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to transfer such control.

(c) Within a reasonable time period (as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), the Borrower shall enter into Lock-Box Agreements with PNC (and update Schedule II hereto) with respect to Collections from Canadian Receivables and GBP Receivables. Within ten (10) calendar days after the establishment of such Lock-Box Agreements, the Borrower shall (i) deliver to each Lock-Box Bank other than PNC and cause each such Lock-Box Bank to follow irrevocable instructions to transfer at 3:00 p.m. on each Business Day all amounts in the Lock-Box Accounts at each such Lock-Box Bank to a Lock-Box Account at PNC and (ii) enter into or cause the Servicer to enter into any amendments to the Transaction Documents required or desired in connection with the foregoing clause (i), including but not limited to an amendment to that certain Security Deed, dated as of August 24, 2015, by and between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

Financial Covenants

Financial Covenant Definitions.

“Consolidated EBIT” means, for any referenced fiscal period, (a) the sum of net income (excluding the net income or loss attributable to any discontinued operations or divested operations, including without limitation, the Maintech Transaction), extraordinary or nonrecurring expenses to net income, interest expense and income tax expense minus (b) extraordinary or nonrecurring gains to net income, in each case, for the Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, for such referenced fiscal period determined and consolidated in accordance with GAAP. For the avoidance of doubt, nonrecurring expenses include, and are not limited to, restructuring, severance, restatement and remediation, noncash impairment, foreign exchange loss, noncash equity compensation expense, non-recurring litigation settlements, transaction expenses (including both legal and nonrecurring fees paid to the Administrative Agent or any Lender) for the amendment and/or extension of Transaction Documents and other special items. The Borrower may make a request to the Administrative Agent in writing requesting that an item be added to or deleted from the definition of Consolidated EBIT and such request shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent agrees to any such request in its sole and absolute discretion.

“Liquidity Level” means, at any referenced time, an amount equal to the sum of the (a) aggregate available amount to the Borrower under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (b) the value of all unmatured Marketable Securities held by the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries and (c) unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (per bank ledger balance) on hand at such time, as determined for the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; provided, however, that beginning on August 1, 2016 and at all times thereafter, at least 50% of the domestic unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (per bank ledger balance) must be on deposit in accounts maintained by one or more of the Parent and its Subsidiaries at PNC. For the avoidance of doubt: (x) at all times the respective depositors shall have free and unencumbered access to such domestic unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (per bank ledger balance) in such respective accounts maintained at PNC; and (y) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall any such cash and cash equivalents (per bank ledger balance) in any such account be subject to any setoff, appropriation or application except in accordance with any applicable Transaction Document and only against amounts (if any) then owing by such respective depositor to PNC.
