If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Loan Parties or for any other reason, the Administrative Agent determines that (x) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date and with reference to any applicable period then ended was inaccurate and (y) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of such date and with reference to such period would have resulted in different pricing for any period, then (i) if the proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; and (ii) if the proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in lower pricing for such period, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to repay any interest or fees to the Borrower, nor shall the Borrower or any other Loan Party have any right of offset against any subsequent payment due and payable by any Loan Party under any Loan Document by reason of such lower pricing for such period.

(f)    Section 4 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be amended by adding the following as new Section 4.12 thereof:
4.12    Intellectual Property.  From and after the date added hereto as a schedule pursuant to the terms of the Third Amendment, Schedule 6 lists all registrations and applications for Intellectual Property (including registered Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and all applications therefor but excluding any Excluded Patents and any Non-Specified Trademarks) as well as all Copyright Licenses, Patent Licenses and Trademark Licenses, in each case, owned by such Grantor in its own name as of the Third Amendment Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantors shall not be required to list in such Schedule 6 (a) any non-exclusive outbound license entered into in the ordinary course of business, (b) any Excluded Patent, (c) any Non-Specified Trademark or (d) any Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to the extent constituting (i) an inbound license of commercial off-the-shelf software (ii) an inbound license of customized software that is used by any such Grantor in connection with the administrative aspects of its business operations (and not in the products or services sold by such Grantor to third-parties) or (iii) an inbound license of any Intellectual Property used by such Grantor in any products or services provided by such Grantor to third-parties and for which such Grantor pays less than $10,000 in annual license fees.   Except as set forth in such Schedule 6 (and subject to the immediately preceding sentence), on the Third Amendment Effective Date, none of such Intellectual Property of such Grantor is the subject of any licensing or franchise agreement pursuant to which such Grantor is the licensor or franchisor.
(g)    Section 5.8 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be amended by replacing the word “reserved” appearing therein with the following:
5.8    Intellectual Property.
(a)    Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each Trademark constituting both a Specified Trademark and Material Intellectual Property in a manner sufficient to maintain such Specified Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain generally as in the past the quality of products and services offered under each such Specified Trademark, (iii) use each such Specified Trademark constituting Material Intellectual Property with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (iv) not adopt or use any mark which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of any Trademark unless the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, shall obtain, to the extent available, a perfected security interest in such mark pursuant to this Agreement, and (v) not (and not knowingly permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(b)    Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent constituting Material Intellectual Property but not an Excluded Patent could reasonably be expected to become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public.
(c)    Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not (and will not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Copyrights constituting Material Intellectual Property could reasonably be expected to become invalidated or otherwise materially impaired.  Such Grantor will not (either itself or through licensees) do any act whereby any material portion of such Copyrights constituting Material Intellectual Property may fall into the public domain.
(d)    Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of any Loan Party, uses any Material Intellectual Property to infringe the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person.
(e)    Such Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent promptly if it knows, or has reason to know, that any registration or application for registration relating to any Material Intellectual Property (other than any Excluded Patent and other than any Non-Specified Trademark) may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any material adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the USPTO, the USCRO or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any Material Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.
(f)    Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Patent (other than to the extent constituting an Excluded Patent) or Trademark (to the extent constituting a Specified Trademark) with the USPTO or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report (i) the initial application to and (ii) the corresponding grant, if any, of such Patent or such Trademark from the USPTO to the Administrative Agent, on the Quarterly Reporting Date occurring in connection with the fiscal quarter of the Borrower in which such filing or grant, as applicable, occurs.  Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Copyright with the USCRO, such Grantor shall report the filing of the initial application to the Administrative Agent not less than 14 days prior to such filing.  Upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, other than in respect of intent-to-use trademark or service mark applications, Excluded Patents and Non-Specified Trademarks, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements (including Intellectual Property Security Agreements), instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest (held for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties) in any Copyright, Patent (other than an Excluded Patent) or Trademark (other than any Non-Specified Trademark) and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.
(g)    Such Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps, including in any proceeding before the USPTO, the USCRO or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each material application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of the Material Intellectual Property (other to the extent constituting an Excluded Patent or a Non-Specified Trademark) in the United States, including filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability.
(h)    In the event that any Material Intellectual Property (other than an Excluded Patent or a Non-Specified Trademark) is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Material Intellectual Property.
(h)    Section 7.1(a) of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be amended by adding the following as new clause (v) thereof:
(v)    in the case of any Intellectual Property (other than to the extent constituting an Excluded Patent or a Non-Specified Trademark), execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements (including any Intellectual Property Security Agreements), instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest (held for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.
(i)    Schedule 3 (Filings and Other Actions Required to Perfect Security Interests) shall be amended and restated in its entirety in the form set forth in Exhibit E hereto.
(j)    The Schedule to the form of Assumption Agreement set forth at Annex 1 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be amended by adding to such Schedule, in the appropriate numerical order, the phrase “Supplement to Schedule 6”.

(b)    No Reliance.  Each of the Borrower and the Acquired Business hereby acknowledge and confirm to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders that it is executing this Agreement and the other Amendment Documents applicable to such Loan Party on the basis of its own investigation and for its own reasons without reliance upon any agreement, representation, understanding or communication by or on behalf of any other Person.

If, however, any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under any such law or regulation in any jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such law or regulation, or, if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, or the validity or effectiveness of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
(h)    Counterparts.  This Agreement 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.

(i)    Interpretation.  This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by respective counsel to the Borrower and the Acquired Business and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly, this Agreement shall not be construed against any party merely because of it’s involvement in the preparation hereof.
