“(ii) Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio. The Company will not permit at the end of any quarterly financial reporting period the ratio of Consolidated Total Net Debt as of the last day of such quarterly financial reporting period to Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the last day of such quarterly financial reporting period, taken as a single period, to exceed (A) on or prior to April 1, 2021, 3.00 to 1.00, and (B) after April 1, 2021, 2.25 to 1.00.

(b)        the Agent shall have received, for the ratable account of each Lender that has executed and delivered a counterpart hereof to the Agent, a consent fee in an amount equal to 0.075% of the aggregate Advances of such Lender.
SECTION 3.    Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the Other Loan Documents.
(a)      On and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in any other Loan Document to “the Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.
(b)        The Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as specifically amended by this Amendment, are and shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.  
(c)        The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Agent under the Credit Agreement, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement.
(d)     This Amendment is subject to the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement and constitutes a Loan Document.
SECTION 4.    Costs and Expenses. CSC agrees to pay promptly on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent (in its capacity as such) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration, modification and amendment of this Amendment (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of a single counsel for the Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Agent as to its rights and responsibilities hereunder) in accordance with the terms of Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 5.    Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telecopier or electronic delivery shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.
