Agent and notified to the Securities Intermediary: 

        (a)  the
Borrower shall not be in compliance with Section 9.13 of the Credit Agreement (Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio) as at the last day of any fiscal quarter of the
Borrower (a "Test Date"), and 

        (b)  assuming
that all repayments of principal of the Loans made after such Test Date but prior to the 45th day after such Test Date had been made on such Test
Date, the Borrower would still not have been in compliance with said Section 9.13 as at such Test Date, 

the
Pledgor agrees, on or prior to the 45th day after such Test Date, to deposit (and the Securities Intermediary will acknowledge receipt of) an amount into the Collateral Account such
that, if the Loans had been repaid on such Test Date by an amount equal to the sum of: 

        (x)  the
amount of such deposit, plus

2

 

        (y)  the
amount of repayments of principal of the Loans (if any) made after such Test Date but prior to the 45th day after such Test Date, the Borrower would
have been in compliance with Section 9.13 of the Credit Agreement as at such Test Date. 

        SECTION
2.3.    Release of Collateral.    Subject at all times to Section 2.8, funds in the Collateral Account

each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied: 

        (a)  the
Borrower shall have furnished to the Lenders the financial information for the fiscal quarter of the Borrower most recently ended pursuant to Section 9.01(a)

pursuant to Section 9.01(b) of the Credit Agreement); 

        (b)  as
at the last day of such fiscal quarter, and as of the date of (and after giving effect to) such release, no Default shall be continuing; and 

        (c)  such
financial information shall demonstrate that as of the last day of such fiscal quarter, if the proposed release had occurred immediately prior to such day, the
Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio would have been no greater than the following respective ratios for the following respective fiscal quarters: 

	Fiscal Quarter Ending
 
	 	Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio

2.5.    Investment of Deposited Funds.    The Pledgor shall cause the Securities Intermediary to invest the
Deposited Funds in such Permitted Investments as the Pledgor may from time to time direct in writing, provided that during the continuance of any Default the Deposited Funds shall be invested in such
Permitted Investments as the Agent shall select. Any amounts earned on such Permitted Investments shall be retained in the Collateral Account and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement. 

        SECTION

of, or specially indorsed to, the Securities Intermediary or in blank, and in no case will any financial assets credited to the Collateral Account be registered in the name of, payable to, or to the
order of, or specially indorsed to the Pledgor except to the extent the foregoing have been specially further indorsed by the Pledgor to the Securities Intermediary or in blank and (vi) the
Securities Intermediary shall not change the entitlement holder or the names or account numbers of the Collateral Account without the prior written consent of the Pledgor and the Agent.

authority to issue "entitlement orders" (as defined in
Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) to the Securities Intermediary. The Securities Intermediary agrees to comply with "entitlement orders" (as defined in
Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) of the Agent relating to the Collateral Account or any financial asset credited thereto without further consent of the Pledgor or any Person,
provided that the Agent shall not give any entitlement orders except (i) if an Event of Default shall be continuing, or (ii) in connection with a release contemplated by  Section 2.3.

damages, (iii) the existence, validity, enforceability or perfection of any Security Interest in the Collateral Account, the adequacy or the value of the Collateral or any reduction in the
