Error: Subtask CheckPrereqs execution failed: Check Tenant Prerequisites

I needed to make a change to our Hybrid configuration when the following issue was encountered: Subtask CheckPrereqs execution failed: Check Tenant Prerequisites

After multiple attempts to run this and troubleshooting. I find out that the issue was caused by recent changes to Exchange Online.

The first KB informed me to remove an invalid certificate
KB2772596 – http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2772596

The issue still existed after after the removal, I later found the following: KB2988229 – http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2988229

Its time to run a cumulative update (CU). In my case I will need to be at Cumulative Update 5 for Exchange Server 2013 (KB2936880)

If you are unsure what version of exchange you are currently running you can use the following Exchange Powershell Command:

Get-ExchangeServer | Format-List Name, Edition, AdminDisplayVersion

Here is a table for reference below
