“For purposes of this Section 7.06(e), any Restricted Payment that is a dividend shall be deemed to be paid on the date of declaration of such dividend, and any payment of a dividend the declaration of which is permitted hereunder shall also be permitted hereunder. Any Restricted Payment permitted by this Section 7.06(e) as of the time made (or, in the case of a Restricted Payment that is a dividend, as of the time declared) shall thereafter remain a Restricted Payment permitted by this Agreement for all purposes (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall remain a Restricted Payment permitted by this Agreement notwithstanding any later increase in Consolidated Funded Indebtedness, any later change in Consolidated EBITDA for any period, any later change in the Aggregate Commitments or any later change in the Total Outstandings).”
