“Consolidated Active Contract Value” means, for any period, the amount determined for such Person and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis equal to the aggregate realized and unrealized contract value from participating providers for such Person and its Subsidiaries for such period; provided that such amount is calculated and reported to the Administrative Agent in manner materially consistent with past practices and/or otherwise in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

“Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage” means the following:


	
			
	Tier 1
	Tier 2
	Tier 3

	100%
	50%
	0%






The Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be based upon the most recent Consolidated EBITDA calculation delivered to each Agent and each Lender pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iv)(B) concurrently with the delivery of the quarterly financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(ii), and the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be re-determined quarterly and such re-determined Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be effective on the one (1) Business Day following the date of delivery to each Agent and each Lender of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ most recent quarterly financial statements and related Authorized Officer certificate pursuant to Sections 7.01(a)(ii) and (iv); provided that, after the date that is the six (6) month anniversary of the Second Amendment Effective Date and at any subsequent time thereafter the Company delivers such quarterly financial statements and certificates showing the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is less than $25,000,000, the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage, shall be set to the percentage corresponding to “Tier 1” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above; provided, however, that, on and after the delivery of such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate attaching a schedule showing the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than $25,000,000 but less than $30,000,000, then the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be set to the percentage corresponding to “Tier 2” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above; provided further, however, that, on and after the delivery of such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate attaching a schedule showing the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than $30,000,000, then the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be set to percentage corresponding to “Tier 3” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above.


Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the Company fails to provide such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate when such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate are due pursuant to Sections 7.01(a)(ii) and (iv), as the case may be, the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be set to the percentage corresponding to “Tier 1” in the table above as of the next Business Day following the date such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate were required to be delivered until one (1) Business Day following the date on which such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate are actually delivered the Administrative Agent (on which date (but not retroactively), without constituting a waiver of any Default or Event of Default occasioned by the failure to timely deliver such financial statements and certificate, the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be set to the percentage based upon the calculations disclosed by such financial statements and certificates and as set forth in the paragraph above). 


In the event the information regarding Consolidated EBITDA contained in any quarterly Authorized Officer’s certificate is shown to be inaccurate, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage or a lower Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage for any period (a “Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Amount Period”) than the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage actually in effect during such Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Amount Period, then (i) Company shall immediately upon becoming aware thereof deliver to each Agent and each Lender a correct quarterly Authorized Officer’s certificate for such Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Amount Period, (ii) the Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall be re-determined as if the correct Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage (based upon the table above) had been applied applicable for such Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Amount Period; provided that, any Default or Event of Default that may or could have been caused by such failure to deliver an accurate Authorized Officer’s certificate shall not be deemed waived pursuant to the forgoing unless otherwise separately waived in writing or cured pursuant to the terms hereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in Delayed Draw Liquidity Increase Percentage shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any financial covenant violation or other default hereunder.

“Second Amendment” means that certain Second Amendment to Financing Agreement, dated as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders party thereto and the Agent.


“Second Amendment Effective Date” means November 1, 2016.

The Applicable Margin shall be based upon the most recent Consolidated EBITDA calculation delivered to each Agent and each Lender pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iv)(B) concurrently with the delivery of the quarterly financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(ii), and the Applicable Margin shall be re-determined quarterly and such re-determined Applicable Margin shall be effective on the one (1) Business Day following the date of delivery to each Agent and each Lender of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ most recent quarterly financial statements and related Authorized Officer certificate pursuant to Sections 7.01(a)(ii) and (iv); provided that, on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date and at any subsequent time thereafter the Company delivers such quarterly financial statements and certificates showing the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is less than  $20,000,000 or Qualified Cash of the Company and the other Loan Parties is less than $20,000,000, the Applicable Margin, in each case of a Reference Rate Loan and LIBOR Rate Loan, shall be set at the spread corresponding to “Tier 1” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above; provided, however, that, on and after the delivery of such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate attaching a schedule showing the calculation of (x) Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than $20,000,000 but less $25,000,000 and (y) Qualified Cash of the Company and the other Loan Parties is equal to or greater than $20,000,000, then the Applicable Margin shall be set at the spread corresponding to “Tier 2” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above; provided further that, on and after the delivery of such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate attaching a schedule showing the calculation of (x) Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than $25,000,000 but less $30,000,000 and (y) Qualified Cash of the Company and the other Loan Parties is greater than $20,000,000, then the Applicable Margin shall be set at the spread corresponding to “Tier 3” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above; provided further that, on and after the delivery of such financial statements and Authorized Officer’s certificate attaching a schedule showing the calculation of (x) Consolidated EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than $30,000,000 and (y) Qualified Cash of the Company and the other Loan Parties is greater than $20,000,000, then the Applicable Margin shall be set at the spread corresponding to “Tier 4” in the table above pursuant to the terms set forth above.

In the event the information regarding Consolidated EBITDA contained in any quarterly Authorized Officer’s certificate is shown to be inaccurate, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin or a lower Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Margin Period”) than the Applicable Margin actually applied for such Applicable Margin Period, then (i) Borrower shall immediately upon becoming aware thereof deliver to each Agent and each Lender a correct quarterly Authorized Officer’s certificate for such Applicable Margin Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be re-determined as if the correct Applicable Margin (based upon the table above) had been applied applicable for such Applicable Margin Period, (iii) the Borrower shall promptly (but, in any event, within two (2) Business Days) deliver to each Agent and each Lender the full payment, if any, in respect of the accrued additional interest on the Loan as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Margin Period, and (iv) the Borrower shall immediately promptly (but, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days) be credited for the amount, if any, in respect of additional interest, if any, paid by Borrower as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Margin Period (and any Default or Event of Default consisting of failure to make payment of such additional interest shall be deemed cured thereby); provided that, any Default or Event of Default that may or could have been caused by such failure to deliver an accurate Authorized Officer’s certificate shall not be deemed waived pursuant to the forgoing unless otherwise separately waived in writing or cured pursuant to the terms hereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in Applicable Margin shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any financial covenant violation or other default hereunder.
