“Applicable Commitment Fee Rate” - (i) Initially, until changed in accordance with the following provisions, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be 0.35%; and (ii) commencing with the fiscal quarter of Borrower following the expiration of the Suspension Period, and continuing with each fiscal quarter thereafter, the Agent shall determine the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate in accordance with the following matrix, based on the Leverage Ratio:

Changes in the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall become effective three (3) Business Days immediately following the date of delivery by Borrower to the Agent of a financial statement and a Compliance Certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 5.2(a) and (b) of this Agreement, and shall be based upon the Leverage Ratio in effect at the end of the financial period covered by such financial statement and Compliance Certificate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, during any period when the Borrower has failed to deliver such a financial statement and Compliance Certificate when due, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be applied at Level 6 above as of the first Business Day after the date on which such financial statement and Compliance Certificate were required to be delivered, regardless of the Leverage Ratio at such time, until the date the required financial statement and Compliance Certificate have been delivered. Any changes in the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be determined by the Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in this definition and the Agent will promptly provide notice of such determinations to the Borrower and the Lenders. Any such determination by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

“Applicable Margin” - (i) Initially, until changed in accordance with the following provisions, the Applicable Margin shall be 1.25% for ABR Loans and 2.25% for Libor Loans; (ii) commencing with the fiscal quarter of Borrower following the expiration of the Suspension Period, and continuing with each fiscal quarter thereafter, the Agent shall determine the Applicable Margin in accordance with the following matrix, based on the Leverage Ratio:

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, during any period when the Borrower has failed to deliver such

financial statement and Compliance Certificate when due, the Applicable Margin shall be applied at Level 6 above as of the first Business Day after the date on which such financial statement and Compliance Certificate were required to be delivered, regardless of the Leverage Ratio at such time, until the date the required financial statement and Compliance Certificate have been delivered. Any changes in the Applicable Margin shall be determined by the Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in this definition and the Agent will promptly provide notice of such determinations to the Borrower and the Lenders. Any such determination by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

For the avoidance of doubt for purposes of Sections 6.1(g) and 6.3(c), any subsequent change in the Threshold Amount occurring after any Indebtedness was incurred or Investment was made will not result in a violation of this Agreement so long as such Indebtedness or Investment was permitted when incurred, made or taken, provided that during the Suspension Period, the term “Threshold Amount” as used in the definition of “Material Indebtedness”, Section 6.1 and 6.3(c) of the Agreement shall be $5,000,000.
