Subsidiaries shall no longer be consolidated with the financial statements of
the Borrower in accordance with GAAP (whether because Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation Number 46 shall no longer apply or for any other
reason whatsoever), then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, all references in this Agreement to GAAP when used with respect to the
financial statements or financial condition of, or accounting determinations
with respect to, the Borrower (including, without limitation, in the definitions
of Capital Expenditure, Capital Lease, Capital Lease Obligations, Consolidated
Net Income, Interest Expense, Leverage Ratio, and Material Subsidiary, but
excluding any such reference to GAAP in Sections 6.1(a) and (b) and 7.7) shall
be construed so as to continue to require the consolidation of the financial
statements of such Transferred Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries with those of
the Borrower (such that, for the avoidance of doubt, any calculation of or use
of any of the defined terms in the foregoing parenthetical shall be made as if
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Transferred Subsidiaries and their
Subsidiaries were considered a consolidated group for such
purposes).”

in addition to the other financial statements required to be delivered
hereunder, consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income and cash
flows for the periods specified in Sections 6.1(a) and (b) for the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries and the Transferred Subsidiaries and their Subsidiaries on a
