To the extent that Operating Profit Available for Series B Note Interest for the Fiscal Year is less than the total amount of Series B Note Interest actually paid for the Fiscal Year (or payable based on the fourth Quarterly Reconciliation Statement for the Fiscal Year), then such excess payments together with any excess payments applied to the Series A Note or Series B Note pursuant to the priority set forth above shall be adjusted as appropriate so that the total amount of Series B Note Interest actually paid for the Fiscal Year does not exceed the cumulative Operating Profit Available For Series B Note Interest for the Fiscal Year as set forth in the Annual Interim Reconciliation Statement, and as confirmed or adjusted, as the case may be, in accordance with the Annual Audited Statement. In the event that adjustments are required as aforesaid, any Pari Passu Distributions during those Fiscal Quarters to Borrower shall be refunded by Borrower to Lender as appropriate to make such adjustments and any Pari Passu Distributions made during those Fiscal Quarters to Lender and deposited in the Pari Passu Account and not otherwise disbursed for an Interest Deficiency during the Fiscal Year shall be refunded by Lender to Borrower as appropriate to make such adjustments. - 7 - (e) Application of Pari Passu Distributions received by --------------------------------------------------- Lender. ------ All Pari Passu Distributions made to Lender with respect to Priority clause Sixth of Section 6.1(a)(i) above shall be deposited in an interest bearing account under the sole dominion and control of Lender (the "Pari Passu Account") and subject to any prior disbursements required by Section 6.1 (b) or 6.1 (d) shall be held therein, and disbursed for application to the Series A Note and Series B Note with respect to each Fiscal Year only as follows: (i) The Aggregate Adjusted Pari Passu Distribution Amount shall be disbursed from the Pari Passu Account and applied against the principal of each of the Series A Note and Series B Note as follows: (A) [1] as to the Series A Note on the Series A Note Application Date in a total amount equal to (x) if pursuant to Clause (A) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 50% of such Aggregate Adjusted Pari Passu Distribution Amount and (y) if pursuant to Clause (B) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 25% of such Aggregate Adjusted Pari Passu Distribution Amount (the amounts referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Clause A[1], sometimes referred to as the "Series A PPD Application Amount"); and [2] the Series A PPD Application Amount shall be applied against the then outstanding principal of the Series A Note, in inverse order of maturity for each Payment Date during the Fiscal Year, effective as of such Payment Date in the same order as the Pari Passu Distributions were deposited into the Pari Passu Account and in an amount equal to the principal amount of (x) if pursuant to Clause (A) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 50% of such Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited into the Pari Passu Account for such Payment Date and (y) if pursuant to Clause (B) of Section 6. 1(a)(i), 25% of such Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited into the Pari Passu Account for such Payment Date (the amounts referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Clause (i), sometimes referred to as the "Series A PPD Amount") provided that if any adjustments were made to the Pari Passu Account resulting in a disbursement from the Pari Passu Account for an Operating Profit Deficiency or refund to the Borrower, the Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited on any Payment Date shall, for purposes of determining the Series A PPD Amount, be deemed to have been reduced by the amount of the adjustment disbursed with respect to that Payment Date; provided further that such adjustment amount will be deemed to have been disbursed from the Pari Passu Account - 8 - from each of the Pari Passu Distributions deposited immediately prior to the Payment Date for which the adjustment is required (in reverse chronological order) so that in determining the amount of the Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited for each Payment Date during a Fiscal Year to determine the Series A PPD Amount, the last deposited Pari Passu Distribution shall in each case be deemed to be the first disbursed for any adjustment. (B) [1] as to the Series B Note on the Series B Note Application Date in a total amount equal to (x) if pursuant to Clause (A) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 50% of such Aggregate Adjusted Pari Passu Distribution Amount and (y) if pursuant to Clause (B) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 75% of such Aggregate Adjusted Pari Passu Distribution Amount (the amounts referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Clause B[1], sometimes referred to as the "Series B PPD Application Amount"); and [2] the Series B PPD Application Amount shall be applied against the then outstanding principal of the Series B Note, for each Payment Date during the Fiscal Year, effective as of the Quarterly Reconciliation Date for each of the Payment Dates during the applicable Fiscal Quarter for which a Pari Passu Distribution is made in the same order as the Pari Passu Distributions were deposited into the Pari Passu Account and in an amount equal to the principal amount of (x) if pursuant to Clause (A) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 50% of such Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited into the Pari Passu Account for the Payment Dates in each Fiscal Quarter to which the Quarterly Reconciliation Date corresponds and (y) if pursuant to Clause (B) of Section 6.1(a)(i), 75% of such Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited into the Pari Passu Account for the Payment Dates in each Fiscal Quarter to which the Quarterly Reconciliation Date correspond (the amounts referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Clause (i) (B)[2], sometimes referred to as the "Series B PPD Amount") provided that if any adjustments were made to the Pari Passu Account resulting in a disbursement from the Pari Passu Account for an Operating Profit Deficiency or refund to the Borrower, the Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited on any Payment Date shall, for purposes of determining the Series B PPD Amount, be deemed to have been reduced by the amount of the adjustment disbursed with respect to that Payment Date; provided further that such adjustment amount will be deemed to have been disbursed from the Pari Passu Account from each of the Pari Passu Distributions deposited immediately prior to the Payment Date for which the - 9 - adjustment is required (in reverse chronological order) so that in determining the amount of the Pari Passu Distribution actually deposited for each Payment Date during a Fiscal Year to determine the Series B PPD Amount, the last deposited Pari Passu Distribution shall in each case be deemed to be the first disbursed for any adjustment. provided that with respect to the foregoing Clause (i), the Series A Note Pari Passu Adjustment Interest shall accumulate and be applied as a lump sum credit against the interest on the Series A Note due and payable on the first Payment Date immediately following the Series A Note Application Date (or on the Series A Note Application Date, if the same is a Payment Date) and the Series B Note Pari Passu Adjustment Interest shall accumulate and be applied as a lump sum credit against the Series B Note Interest due and payable on the first Payment Date immediately following the Series B Note Application Date (or on the Series B Note Application Date, if the same is a Payment Date); and (ii) The Annual PPD Interest shall be disbursed from the Pari Passu Account and applied as follows: (x) the Annual Series A Note PPD Interest shall be disbursed from the Pari Passu Account and applied on, and effective as of, each Series A Note Application Date as a lump sum payment against the then outstanding principal of the Series A Note, in inverse order of maturity; and (y) the Annual Series B Note PPD Interest shall be disbursed from the Pari Passu Account and applied on, and effective as of, each Series B Note Application Date as a lump sum payment against the principal of the Series B Note, (f) General.
