         amount equal to 80% of the Net Borrowing Base in effect on the day
         immediately prior to the date such Borrowing Base Certificate should

entirety as follows:

              (b) The Company shall not permit the ratio of its Financial
         Indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA at the end of each fiscal quarter,
