(a) attributable to any Indebtedness bearing a floating interest rate shall be computed on a pro forma basis as if the rate in effect on the date of computation had been the applicable rate for the entire Measurement Period,
(b) attributable to interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving Credit Facility shall be computed on a pro forma basis based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness outstanding during the applicable Measurement Period,

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors further affirms that each security interest and Lien granted pursuant to any of the Note Documents is a continuing, perfected, first-priority security interest or Lien (except to the extent otherwise permitted by the Note Documents) on substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries.

Section 9. Most Favored Nation Provision.
This Amendment and Waiver may be executed prior to the execution of the Other Waivers. Except with regard to the use of proceeds from a Qualified Initial Public Offering as outlined in Sections 3.16 and 3.17 hereof and except with regard to the Amendment Fee set forth in Section 4 hereof vis a vis (i) the amendment fees and/or the waiver fees provided for in Sections 2 and 3 of the waiver from the holders of the INI First Lien Notes, (ii) the amendment fees and/or the waiver fees provided for in Sections 2 and 3 of the waiver from the holders of the INI Second Lien Notes and (iii) the amendment fee provided in the amendment and waiver agreement with respect to the Subordinated Notes dated October 8, 2009, in the event that the language or provisions of the Other Waivers with respect to a provision common to, or covering the same subject matter as, the SPAs is more favorable to the holders of the INI First Lien Notes, INI Second Lien Notes or FFN Subordinated Notes than is the corresponding restated obligation to the Holders under this Amendment and Waiver, such more favorable restated obligation shall supersede and be deemed substituted for such corresponding Amendment and Waiver obligation herein for the benefit of all Holders under the SPAs.

10.3 Scope of Consent. The consents provided by the Holders pursuant to this Amendment and Waiver are given solely in such Holders’ capacities as holders of the 2005 Notes and/or 2006 Notes.
