Extended Facility, with such percentage being equal to the excess of (a) the
applicable percentage per annum set forth below determined by reference to the
Cash Flow Ratio as set forth in the most recent Compliance Certificate received
by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.01(d) of the Credit Agreement
