The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued to or by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment; provided that, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, with respect to this covenant, an MAI appraiser, accounting firm or valuation firm with experience in such valuation and not affiliated with the Company shall be required if the fair market value of such Restricted Payment or Restricted Payments for any series of transactions exceeds $2.0 million. At least quarterly, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that all Restricted Payments during such quarter were permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 4.07 were computed, together with a copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by this Indenture. If a Guarantee constituted a Restricted Investment at the time made, then the payment under such Guarantee shall not constitute an additional Restricted Investment. The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if such designation would not cause a Default or an Event of Default. In the event of any such designation, all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of such designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of this Section 4.07 or Permitted Investments, as applicable. All such outstanding Investments shall be deemed to constitute Restricted Investments in an amount equal to the fair market value of such Investments at the time of such designation. Such designation shall only be permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if such redesignation would not cause a Default or an Event of Default. Any such designation by the Board of Directors shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the board resolution giving effect to such designation and an Officers' Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing conditions and was permitted by this Section 4.07. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company shall be in default of Section 4.09 hereof). The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (a) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period, and (b) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.
