Represents
the estimated interest obligations on the outstanding balances of
the
Revolving Credit Facility, Tranche B Term Loan Facility and Senior
Notes,
together, assuming scheduled principal payments (based on the terms
of the
loan agreements) were made and assuming a weighted average interest
rate
of 8.11%. Estimated interest obligations would be different under
different assumptions regarding interest rates or timing of principal
payments. If interest rates on borrowings with variable rates increased
by
1%, interest expense would increase approximately $3.6 million, in
the
first year. However, given the protection afforded by the interest
rate
cap agreements, the impact of a one percentage point increase would
be
limited to $2.3 million.
