which would have been considered outstanding at such date had such Securitization Obligations been accounted for as a borrowing at such date) to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the period of the four fiscal quarters most recently ended, provided that, for such purpose, Consolidated EBITDA for any such period of four fiscal quarters shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to any Material Acquisition or any Material Disposition consummated during such period, as if such Material Acquisition or Material Disposition had occurred on the first day of such period. Pro forma calculations made pursuant to the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence shall be determined in good faith by an Authorized Officer of the Company.

(c)Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following definitions in the appropriate alphabetical order:

Material Disposition” means the Disposition by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries for aggregate cash consideration of $500,000,000 or more.

Pre-Funded Acquisition Debt” means Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing a Material Acquisition, which Indebtedness is issued in advance of the date of consummation of such Material Acquisition, so long as the indenture or agreement governing such Indebtedness provides that such Indebtedness shall be repaid or redeemed within a specified period after the incurrence of such Indebtedness if such Material Acquisition is not consummated within such period.
