Schedule of ECF principal payments as a percentage of consolidated EBITDA

The Term Loans also require an annual principal payment based on a percentage of our ECF (as defined in the Amended Credit Facility) which at March 31, 2013 was estimated to be $3.8 million and is included in the current portion of long-term debt. The ECF principal payments are reduced by scheduled and voluntary principal payments and fluctuate based on our consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Facility) as follows:

Consolidated Leverage Ratio	ECF Prepayment as a Percentage of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined)
Greater than 3.00	75	%
2.25 to 3.00	50	%
1.25 to 2.25	25	%
Less than 1.25	0	%
