Measurement Period In this Agreement, unless the contrary intention appears, a reference to:
Maximum Total Leverage Ratio The Borrower shall not permit the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any four-quarter period to be greater than 4.00:1.00. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) for purposes of calculating the Total Leverage Ratio, until the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Specified Acquisition and (ii) termination of the acquisition agreement related to such Specified Acquisition, the Total Leverage Ratio shall not include any Indebtedness of the Borrower or the Guarantors to the extent that (x) such Indebtedness was incurred solely to finance such Specified Acquisition (and any related transactions) and the proceeds of such indebtedness are held as cash or cash equivalents in an escrow or equivalent arrangement (pending the consummation of such Specified Acquisition) and (y) such Indebtedness is redeemable or prepayable at no more than 101% of the principal amount thereof (plus accrued interest) in the event that the Specified Acquisition is not consummated; and (b) upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto (a “Specified Acquisition Notice”), the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any period for the four-quarter period beginning with the period in which such Specified Acquisition is consummated (such period in which the Specified Acquisition is consummated, the “Specified Acquisition Consummation Period”) and continuing through the fourth consecutive fiscal quarter ended immediately following the first day of the Specified Acquisition Consummation Period shall not exceed 4.50:1.00 (in lieu of the ratio set forth for such period above); provided that (i) the Borrower may deliver a Specified Acquisition Notice no more than three times during the life of this Agreement and (ii) after any Specified Acquisition Consummation Period, the Borrower must have a Total Leverage Ratio of no more than 4.00:1.00 for at least two consecutive fiscal quarters before the Borrower may elect to deliver a Specified Acquisition Notice for an additional time.
Performance Period This Agreement shall be performed during the period which begins Oct 01 2020 and ends Sep 30 2022. All services under this Agreement must be rendered within this performance period, unless directly specified under a written change or extension provisioned under Article 14, which shall be fully executed by both parties to this Agreement.
Computation Period Interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder on a per annum basis shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) unless such calculation would result in a usurious rate or to the extent such Loan bears interest based upon the Base Rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year or 366-day year, as the case may be. In computing the number of days during which interest accrues, the day on which funds are initially advanced shall be included regardless of the time of day such advance is made, and the day on which funds are repaid shall be included unless repayment is credited prior to the close of business on the Business Day received. Each determination by Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Performance Factors (a) Each party will notify the other party of the existence of a Performance Factor, as soon as reasonably possible after the party becomes aware of the Performance Factor. The Notice will: describe the Performance Factor and its actual or anticipated impact; include a description of any action the party is undertaking, or plans to undertake, to remedy or mitigate the Performance Factor; indicate whether the party is requesting a meeting to discuss the Performance Factor; and address any other issue or matter the party wishes to raise with the other party. (b) The recipient party will provide a written acknowledgment of receipt of the Notice within 7 Days of the date on which the Notice was received (“Date of the Notice”). (c) Where a meeting has been requested under paragraph 7.2(a)(3), the parties agree to meet and discuss the Performance Factors within 14 Days of the Date of the Notice, in accordance with the provisions of section 7.3.
