Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 3.03(b), the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended in accordance with Section 3.03(a). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.03(b) to the contrary, any amendment providing for the replacement of the LIBOR Rate with an alternative benchmark or reference rate of interest shall provide that in no event shall such benchmark or reference rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.
