Income during prior periods (including reserves established upon the consummation of the Cendant Spin-Off), all as determined on a consolidated basis for the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP; provided that to the extent the aggregate amount of cash expenditures referred to in clause (xi) above exceeds $50,000,000 in any period of measurement, such amounts may be spread ratably over the period being measured and the periods of measurement for the subsequent three fiscal years; provided, however, that in any annual measurement period the maximum amount being spread may not exceed $100,000,000 and any excess over that amount must be reflected fully in the relevant measurement period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in calculating Consolidated EBITDA pro forma effect shall be given to each (1) acquisition of a Consolidated Subsidiary or any other entity acquired by the Borrower or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries in a merger, where the purchase price or merger consideration exceeds $25,000,000 during such period and (2) disposition property by the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries yielding gross profits in excess of $25,000,000 during such period as if such acquisition or disposition had been made on the first day of such period.

Consolidated Total Indebtedness” shall mean (i) the total amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis using GAAP principles of consolidation, which is, at the dates as of which Consolidated Total Indebtedness is to be determined, includable as liabilities on a consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, plus (ii) without duplication of any items included in


2




Indebtedness pursuant to the foregoing clause (i), Indebtedness of others which the Borrower or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries has directly or indirectly assumed or guaranteed (but only to the extent so assumed or guaranteed) or otherwise provided credit support therefor, including without limitation, Guaranty Obligations; provided that, for purposes of this definition, Indebtedness shall not include (1) Guaranty Obligations and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed in connection with the Cendant Spin-Off (including those determined in accordance with FIN 45 and SFAS), (2) Securitization Indebtedness, (3) the aggregate undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, (4) Non-Recourse Indebtedness, or (5) obligations incurred under any derivatives transaction entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to hedging programs. In addition, for purposes of this definition, the amount of Indebtedness at any time shall be reduced (but not to less than zero) by the amount of Excess Cash.
