4.7                               Counterparts.  This Amendment Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each executed counterpart constituting an original, but altogether only

one instrument.  Delivery of an executed signature page by facsimile or e-mail transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Amendment Agreement.

““Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” means, as of any date of calculation, the ratio of (i) Consolidated EBITDA for the Company’s then most recently ended consecutive four fiscal quarters minus (x) the greater of (1) the Adjusted Capital Expenditure Amount for such period and (2) the aggregate amount of Capital Expenditures made during such period minus (y) cash income taxes paid during such period to (ii) Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense for such period (excluding any interest that is paid in kind in respect of the Notes), plus scheduled principal amortization of long term Consolidated Funded Indebtedness paid or payable during such period (excluding any prepayments of principal of the Notes made pursuant to Section 8.1(a)), plus all Restricted Payments made in cash during such period, all calculated for the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.  As used in this definition, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Adjusted Capital Expenditure Amount” means (i) with respect to any consecutive four fiscal quarter period ending on or prior to December 31, 2016, $20,000,000, (ii) with respect to any consecutive four fiscal quarter period ending after December 31, 2016 and on or prior to December 31, 2018, $15,000,000, and (iii) with respect to any consecutive four fiscal quarter period ending after December 31, 2018, $10,000,000.

“Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense” means, with reference to any period, the interest expense of the Company and its Subsidiaries calculated in accordance with GAAP on a consolidated basis for such period plus (without duplication), to the extent treated as interest in accordance with GAAP, premium payments, debt discount, fees (excluding (i) accelerated amortization of fees paid in respect of permanent reductions of commitments to lend under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement, (ii) accelerated amortization of fees paid in respect of prepayments of the Notes, (iii) payments of Make-Whole Amount or Required Prepayment Premium on the Notes and (iv) amortization of non-cash deferred financing fees, in each case in accordance with GAAP) charges and related expenses of the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with borrowed money (including capitalized interest) or in connection with the deferred purchase price of assets, in each case calculated in accordance with GAAP on a consolidated basis for such period; provided that, solely for purposes of this definition, interest expense arising from the Notes shall be calculated as if the Incremental Interest Rate were determined solely by reference to the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the applicable period (and without regard to the references to Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio set forth in the definition of Incremental Interest Rate).  To the extent the Company makes the June 2017 Prepayment (as defined in the Fourth

Schedule II-6

Amendment) on or prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date or any other prepayment of the Notes after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.8, 8.9 and/or 8.10, in each case using proceeds of sales of inventory or any asset which is non-core and non-critical to the operation of the business, issuances of Equity Interests and/or borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement, Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense for any period in which such prepayment occurs shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such prepayment had occurred on the first day of such period; provided that, if any such prepayment is made in full or in part using proceeds of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement, in calculating Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense for the relevant period, pro forma effect shall also be given to such borrowings as if such borrowings had been made on the first day of such period.”

b.                    The definition of “Change of Control” is amended by replacing the percentage “30%” appearing therein with “50%”.

c.                     The definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” is amended by deleting the phrase “as defined by GAAP” appearing immediately after the phrase “extraordinary expenses” in clause (viii) thereof.

d.                    The definition of “FCC” is amended by inserting the following phrase immediately after the phrase “plus scheduled principal amortization of long term Consolidated Funded Indebtedness paid or payable during such period” appearing in clause (iii) thereof:

“(excluding any prepayments of principal of the Notes made pursuant to Section 8.1(a))”

e.                     The definition of “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” is amended by inserting the following phrase immediately after the phrase “plus scheduled principal amortization of long term Consolidated Funded Indebtedness paid or payable during such period” appearing in clause (ii) thereof:
