English to German Bus/Financial Accounting Pressemitteilung

Certain covenants contained in the credit agreement governing our credit facilities and the indentures governing the Senior Notes, Senior Toggle Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes (i) require the maintenance of a net first-lien secured indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA ratio and/or (ii) restrict our ability to take certain actions such as incurring additional debt or making acquisitions if we are unable to meet certain financial tests. For example, the indenture covenants restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness (subject to certain exceptions) unless we are able to comply, on a pro forma basis, with an ***Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges ratio*** (measured on a trailing four-quarter basis) of 2.0:1.0. Inability to comply with such covenants can result in limiting our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to incur future indebtedness. The Company is in compliance with the covenant requirements at September 30, 2007.
