     In the event the Leverage Ratio (as defined below) exceeds 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company (each, a “High Leverage Quarter"), then, in addition to all other interest accruing on this Note (and all rights of the holders of Notes under Section 10.6 of the Note Purchase Agreements (as defined in the Supplement)), additional interest in the amount of 2.00% per annum (the “Additional Interest”) shall accrue on this Note, commencing on (and retroactive to) the first day of the fiscal quarter immediately following such High Leverage Quarter and continuing until the Company has delivered the financial statements and related Officer’s Certificate required by Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of the Note Purchase Agreements, respectively (collectively, “Company Reports"), demonstrating that, as of the end of the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Company Reports were delivered, the Leverage Ratio did not exceed 3.75 to 1.0; provided, however, that such Additional Interest shall accrue for not less than two (2) consecutive fiscal quarters following a High Leverage Quarter. Following delivery of the Company Reports demonstrating that the Leverage Ratio did not exceed 3.75 to 1.0, but subject to the proviso in the preceding sentence, the Additional Interest shall cease to accrue or be payable from (and retroactive to) the first day of the fiscal quarter immediately following the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Company Reports were delivered. “Leverage Ratio” means, as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company, the ratio of Consolidated Debt at the end of such fiscal quarter to Consolidated EBITDDA for the twelve months then ended.
