Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, the definition of New Store shall at all times be consistent with the Company’s reporting of the opening of new Stores in all financial statements and reports that any member of the Restricted Group makes to, or files with, the SEC or provides to the holders of any class of its debt securities or public equity securities.
