A Cash Collateral Period will terminate on the last day of the fiscal quarter in which the Company satisfies the Level II Pricing Covenants set forth in the Third Amendment for two consecutive fiscal quarters (commencing no earlier than the two consecutive fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017), provided that at any time the Company is not in compliance with the Level II Pricing Covenants, a Cash Collateral Period will begin.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The foregoing summary of the Third Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Item 9.01 - Financial Statements and Exhibits.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:25px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">&#32;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">(d)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">&#32;&#32;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Exhibits.
