LIBOR Rate (A) Except as provided in subsection (C) below, Revolving Loans shall accrue interest at the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.
(B) The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs, in each case, due to changes in applicable Law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “change in applicable Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Borrowers and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender (I) require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (II) repay the Loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate with respect to which such adjustment is made.
(C) In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation of application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain Loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Borrowers and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (I) in the case of any outstanding Loans of such Lender bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate, the date specified in such Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such Loans, and interest upon such Lender’s Loans thereafter shall accrue interest at Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and (II) such Loans shall continue to accrue interest at Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to maintain such Loans at the LIBOR Rate.
(D) Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent nor any Lender is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues based on the LIBOR Rate.
LIBOR Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR at any time and in the minimum amount of $100,000.00; provided however, that if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be the entire outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such Fixed Rate Term matures, calculated as follows for each such month:
(a) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto.
(b) Subtract from the amount determined in (a) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the amount prepaid for the remaining term of such Fixed Rate Term at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid.
(c) If the result obtained in (b) for any month is greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (b) above. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described prepayment fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the prepayment costs, expenses and/or liabilities of Bank. If Borrower fails to pay any prepayment fee when due, the amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate per annum 2.000% above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed).

Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 2.14(c) of this Agreement, such Section 2.14(c) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.14(c), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
Competitive Bid Loans The Company may obtain loans under Sections 1.1 and 1.2 pursuant to the competitive bid procedures set forth in the Section 1.10 ("Competitive Bid Loans"), subject to the terms and conditions of Section 1.1 or 1.1 (as the case may be), except as otherwise provided in this Section 1.10. Each Bank may make such Competitive Bid Loans to the Company, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, in such amounts as such Bank, in its sole discretion, desires to make to the Company. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 1.1, the aggregate outstanding amount of Competitive Bid Loans made against the Aggregate Commitment shall reduce each Bank's Commitment pro rata in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest, regardless of which Bank makes such Competitive Bid Loans. Any Competitive Bid Loan made under the Demand Line shall be due and payable upon demand in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding any of the terms of such Competitive Bid Loan. The procedure for making Competitive Bid Loans shall be as follows:
(a) The Company may make requests for bids from the Banks to make Competitive Bid Loans ("Competitive Bids") not later than 9:00 a.m., Milwaukee time, on the proposed borrowing date for one or more Competitive Bid Loans. Each such request shall be given directly to each of the Banks, shall be given in writing (which may be a facsimile transmission) signed by the Company, and shall specify (I) the proposed borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Competitive Bid Loans, which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or, for amounts in excess thereof, an integral multiple of $100,000, (iii) the interest period for each Competitive Bid Loan ("Loan Period"), which shall commence on the applicable borrowing date and end on a specified date thereafter not exceeding 180 days from such borrowing date (up to three (3) Loan Periods may be requested pursuant to each Competitive Bid), and the last day of each such Loan Period, and (iv) if more than one Loan Period is so specified, the principal amount allocable to each such Loan Period.
(b) Each Bank in its sole discretion may (but is not obligated to) submit one or more Competitive Bids to the Company not later than 11:00 a.m., Milwaukee time, on the proposed borrowing date specified in such request for Competitive Bids (such 11:00 a.m. time being herein called the "Submission Deadline") by facsimile or in writing, and thereby irrevocably offer to make all or any part (any such part referred to as a "Portion") of any Competitive Bid Loan described in the relevant request for Competitive Bids at a fixed rate of interest per annum (each a "Bid Rate") specified therein, without reference to the LIBOR Rate or other basis for interest rates, in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 and, for amounts in excess thereof, an integral multiple of $100,000. Multiple Competitive Bids may be delivered by any Bank.
(c) The Company shall, in its sole discretion but subject to paragraph (d) below, irrevocably accept or reject any such Competitive Bid (or any Portion thereof) not later than 12:00 noon on the proposed borrowing date by notice to the appropriate Bank by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly delivered to such Bank and the Agent the same day). If a Bank fails to receive notice from the Company of its acceptance or rejection of any Competitive Bids made by such Bank at or prior to 12:00 noon on such day, all such Competitive Bids shall be deemed to have been rejected by the Company. The Company's written acceptance of any Competitive Bid shall constitute a borrowing notice of the Company, and shall specify the amount, maturity date and Bid Rate for each Competitive Bid Loan. The Company will give written notice to the Agent in the form of Part 3 to Exhibit 2.1 hereto on each Business Day on which there is any change in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans, setting forth the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Loans then outstanding after giving effect to any Competitive Bid Loans made on such Business Day.
(d) If the Company accepts a Portion of a proposed Competitive Bid Loan for a single Loan Period at the Bid Rate provided therefor in a Bank's Competitive Bid, such Portion shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or, for amounts in excess thereof, an integral multiple of $100,000. If the Company accepts any Competitive Bid Loan or Portion offered in any Competitive Bid, the Company must accept Competitive Bids (and Competitive Bid Loans and Portions thereby offered) based exclusively upon the successively lowest Bid Rates within each Loan Period an no other criteria. If two (2) or more Banks submit Competitive Bids with identical Bid Rates for the same Loan Period and the Company accepts any thereof, the Company shall accept all such Competitive Bids as nearly as possible in proportion to the amounts of such Banks' respective Competitive Bids with identical Bid Rates for such Loan Period, provided, that if the amount of Competitive Bid Loans to be so allocated is not sufficient to enable each such Bank to make such Competitive Bid Loan (or Portions thereof) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000, or for amounts in excess thereof, an integral multiple of $100,000, the Company shall round the Competitive Bid Loans (or Portions thereof) allocated to such Bank or Banks as the Company shall select as necessary to a minimum of $1,000,000 and, if greater than $1,000,000 the nearest multiple of $100,000, or select the Competitive Bid of only one of such Banks.
(e) Not later than 1:30 p.m., Milwaukee time, on the relevant borrowing date, each Bank whose Competitive Bid was accepted by the Company shall make available to the Agent, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of such Bank's Competitive Bid Loan(s). Upon fulfillment of the applicable borrowing conditions, the Agent shall deposit in the Company's account maintained with the Agent or as the Company may otherwise direct in writing on the relevant borrowing date the proceeds of such Competitive Bid Loans, in immediately available funds.
(h) Section 2.2(b) of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding an additional subparagraph (3) thereto, reading in its entirety as follows:
National Competitive Bidding Goods estimated to cost less than $250,000 equivalent per contract and works estimated to cost less than $500,000 equivalent per contract, may be procured under contracts awarded on the basis of National Competitive Bidding.
Reference Banks If a Reference Bank (or, if a Reference Bank is not a Lender, the Lender of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Lender, the Agent shall (in consultation with the Borrower) appoint another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender to replace that Reference Bank.
