Alternative Rate of Interest Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.03(a) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 3.03(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with the Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 3.03(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (c)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Required Lenders (directly, or through the Administrative Agent) notify the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate; provided that if such determined rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for each Loan bearing interest at the Replacement Rate that has not been identified by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as being subject to a Specified Swap Contract that provides a hedge against interest rate risk. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 3.03
Application of agreed alternative rate of interest Any alternative interest rate or an alternative basis which is agreed during the Negotiation Period shall take effect in accordance with the terms agreed.
Negotiation of alternative rate of interest (a) If the Agent’s notice under Clause 5.8 is served after the Advance is borrowed, the Borrowers, the Agent, the Lenders (subject to Clause 27.5) or (as the case may be) the Affected Lender shall use reasonable endeavours to agree, within 30 days after the date on which the Agent serves its notice under Clause 5.8 (the “Negotiation Period”), an alternative interest rate or (as the case may be) an alternative basis for the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Affected Lender to fund or continue to fund their or its Contribution during the Interest Period concerned.
Yield Calculation The Bank will compute the performance results of the Fund (the "Yield Calculation") in accordance with the provisions of Release No. 33-6753 and Release No. IC-16245 (February 2, 1988) (the "Releases") promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and any subsequent amendments to, published interpretations of or general conventions accepted by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to such releases or the subject matter thereof ("Subsequent Staff Positions"), subject to the terms set forth below:
Alternative rate of interest in absence of agreement If an alternative interest rate or alternative basis is not agreed within the Negotiation Period, and the relevant circumstances are continuing at the end of the Negotiation Period, then the Agent shall, with the agreement of each Lender or (as the case may be) the Affected Lender, set an interest period and interest rate representing the cost of funding of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Affected Lender in Dollars or in any available currency of their or its Contribution plus the Margin; and the procedure provided for by this Clause 5.12 shall be repeated if the relevant circumstances are continuing at the end of the interest period so set by the Agent.
Interest Rate Determination (a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii).
Interest Calculation Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the outstanding principal balance.
Interest Rate Determinations Administrative Agent shall give notice to Borrower and each Lender of the applicable interest rates for the purposes of Section 2.03 and any calculation related thereto.
Federal Funds Effective Rate For any day, the rate per annum (rounded upward to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent (1/100 of 1%)) announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland on such day as being the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions arranged by federal funds brokers on the previous trading day, as computed and announced by such Federal Reserve Bank in substantially the same manner as such Federal Reserve Bank computes and announces the weighted average it refers to as the “Federal Funds Effective Rate.”
Effective Rate The rate derived from the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases will be determined in accordance with the related provisions below. The interest rate in effect on each day will be based on: (1) if that day is an Interest Reset Date, the rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately preceding that Interest Reset Date; or (2) if that day is not an Interest Reset Date, the rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately preceding the most recent Interest Reset Date.
