reason, its Conduit Lender fails to fund any such Loan, and provided, further,

designation of any Conduit Lender by a Lender, such Conduit Lender shall have
all of the rights of a "Lender" hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
 
          "CONSOLIDATED EBITDA": with respect to any Person and its consolidated

with the Sprint Acquisition, plus (m) asset write-down charges related to
discontinued operations. For purposes of clauses (b) through (m) above, such
amounts shall be deducted from, or added to, net income, in each case only to
the extent such amounts were included in the calculation of net income; provided
that the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA shall be adjusted to annualize the
financial results of Towers owned, leased or managed by such Person and its
Subsidiaries for less than one year as follows: (i) the Consolidated EBITDA
attributed to any Tower owned, leased or managed by such Person and its
Subsidiaries for less than one year but greater than or equal to one month shall
