C. This Amendment No. 5 shall constitute a Transaction Document and these Recitals shall be construed as part of this Amendment No. 5.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and of the Loans and other extensions of credit heretofore, now or hereafter made to, or for the benefit of, the Borrower by the Lenders, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Except to the extent otherwise specified herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 5 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.
2. Amendments. Subject to Section 4, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
2.1 The definition for “EBITDA” in Section 1.01 (“Certain Definitions”) shall be deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following language:
““EBITDA” means, for any period, the sum for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, determined on a consolidated basis of (a) operating income (utilidad de operación), (b) cash interest income and (c)
depreciation and amortization expense, in each case determined in accordance with Mexican GAAP, subject to the adjustments herein, consistently applied for such period and adjusted for Discontinued EBITDA as follows: if the amount of Discontinued EBITDA is a positive amount, then EBITDA shall increase by such amount, and if the amount of Discontinued EBITDA is a negative amount, then EBITDA shall decrease by the absolute value of such amount. For the purposes of calculating EBITDA for any applicable period pursuant to any determination of the Consolidated Net Debt / EBITDA Ratio (but not the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio): (A) (i) if at any time during such applicable period the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall have made any Material Disposition, the EBITDA for such applicable period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if positive) attributable to the property that is the subject of such Material Disposition for such applicable period (but when the Material Disposition is by way of lease, income received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under such lease shall be included in EBITDA) and (ii) if at any time during such applicable period the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall have made any Material Acquisition, EBITDA for such applicable period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the incurrence or assumption of any Debt) as if such Material Acquisition had occurred on the first day of such applicable period. Additionally, if since the beginning of such applicable period any Person that subsequently shall have become a Subsidiary or was merged or consolidated with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of a Material Acquisition occurring during such applicable period shall have made any Disposition or Acquisition of property that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above if made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries during such applicable period, EBITDA for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Disposition or Acquisition had occurred on the first day of such applicable period; and (B) all EBITDA for each applicable period ending on or after December 31, 2008 will be recalculated by multiplying each month’s EBITDA by the Ending Exchange Rate and dividing the amount obtained thereto by the exchange rate used by the Borrower in preparation of its monthly financial statements in accordance with Mexican GAAP to convert U.S.$ into Mexican pesos (such recalculated EBITDA being the “Recalculated EBITDA”), provided, that, the Required Lenders shall have the option, with respect to any Reference Period ending after December 31, 2009, to discontinue the incorporation of Recalculated EBITDA into the Consolidated Net Debt/EBITDA Ratio (the “Discontinue Option”). The Required Lenders may exercise the Discontinue Option upon notice to the Administrative Agent, who shall, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, notify the Borrower of such exercise in writing (the “Notice of Discontinuance”) at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of such Reference Period. Subject to the foregoing notice requirements, such Discontinue Option shall be effective for each Reference Period ending after the date of such Notice of Discontinuance to the Borrower as set forth herein.”
2.2 The definition for “Ending Exchange Rate” in Section 1.01 (“Certain Definitions”) shall be deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following language:
““Ending Exchange Rate” means the exchange rate at the end of a Reference Period for converting U.S.$ into Mexican pesos, used by the Borrower and its auditors in preparation of the Borrower’s financial statements in accordance with Mexican GAAP.”
2.3 The definition of “U.S.$/Euro EBITDA” in Section 1.01 (“Certain Definitions”) shall be deleted in its entirety.
