After the Initial Financial Statement Delivery Date, any change in the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be effective to adjust the Applicable Margin for the Closing Date Revolving Facility on and as of the date of receipt by Administrative Agent of the Section 9.04 Financials resulting in such change until the date immediately preceding the next date of delivery of Section 9.04 Financials resulting in another such change.

In the event of an Inaccuracy Determination, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Inaccurate Applicable Margin Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Inaccurate Applicable Margin Period, then Borrower shall promptly (i) deliver to Administrative Agent corrected Section 9.04 Financials for such Inaccurate Applicable Margin Period, (ii) determine the Applicable Margin for such Inaccurate Applicable Margin Period based upon the corrected Section 9.04 Financials and (iii) pay to Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Inaccurate Applicable Margin Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4.01.
