Variable Rate The initial ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for Purchases is a fixed promotional rate as shown on page 1 of this Agreement and will remain in effect for your first six (6) billing cycles following the opening of your account ("Initial Rate Period for Purchases"). The Daily Periodic Rate during the Initial Rate Period for Purchases is 0%. After the Initial Rate Period for Purchases, the Daily Periodic Rate for Purchases based on the Current Index and Rate Spread described below will be .0493% and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will be 18.00%. After the Initial Rate Period for Purchases, the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for Purchases will change to the current rate shown on page 1 of this Agreement. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for transfers of account balances you have with another creditor ("Balance Transfers") is a fixed rate as shown on page 1 of this Agreement and will be in effect for eight (8) billing cycles following the opening of your account. The Daily Periodic Rate for Balance Transfers during the eight-billing cycle period is 4.99%. The Daily Periodic Rate for Balance Transfers after the eight-billing cycle period based on the Current Index and Rate Spread described below will be .0493% and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will be 18.00%. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for Balance Transfers after the eight-billing cycle period will change to the current rate shown on page 1 of this Agreement. The current Daily Periodic Rate for Purchases and Balance Transfers is .0493%. The Daily Periodic Rate and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE may change (by increasing or decreasing) on the first day of each of your billing cycles that begin in March, June, September, and December. Each date on which the rate of interest could change is called a "Change Date." Changes will be based on changes in the "Index." The Index is the highest U.S. Prime Rate published in the "Money Rates" section of The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the calendar month prior to the month in which the Change Date occurs. The most recent Index is called the “Current Index.” If the Index is no longer available, we will choose a new index based upon comparable information and will give you notice of our choice. Your interest rate for Purchases is based on a variable rate equal to the sum of the Current Index plus a "Rate Spread" of 12.99 percentage points. (The Rate Spread is also called the Margin.) Immediately before each Change Date we will determine the new interest rate for Purchases by adding the Rate Spread to the Current Index. For example, if the Current Index was 7.00% and the Rate Spread 12.99 percentage points, the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE would be 18.00% and by dividing this percentage figure by 365, we would compute a Daily Periodic Rate of .0493%. The new interest rate for Purchases will become effective at the start of your first billing cycle after the Change Date. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. The effect of any increase in the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE and the Daily Periodic Rate for Purchases would be to increase the amount of interest you must pay and thus increase your monthly payments.
Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Notes If this Note is specified on the face hereof as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note”, this Note will bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases: (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any; and/or (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any. Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date, the rate at which this Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note is payable will be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that: (A) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face hereof; and (B) the interest rate in effect commencing on the Fixed Rate Commencement Date will be the Fixed Interest Rate, if specified on the face hereof, or, if not so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.
Variable Rate Transactions From the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Debentures, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.
Explanation of Variable Rates If the Prime Rate increases, variable APRs (and corresponding DPRs) will increase. In that case, you may pay more interest and may have a higher Minimum Payment Due. When the Prime Rate changes, the resulting changes to variable APRs take effect as of the first day of the billing period. The Daily Periodic Rate (DPR) is 1/365th of the APR, rounded to the nearest one ten-thousandth of a percentage point. The variable penalty APR will not exceed 29.99%. How Rates and Fees Work
Fixed Rate In the event the Borrower has opted for a Fixed Rate of interest, the interest rate shall remain fixed throughout the tenure of the Loan. The applicable Fixed Rate shall be the prevailing interest rate on the date of disbursement.
Subsequent Variable Rate Transactions From the date hereof until such time as the Note is fully converted or fully repaid, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. The Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.
FIXED RATES If a fixed rate is in this Agreement, it is based on an estimate of the costs for the period covered by the rate. When the actual costs for this period are determined, an adjustment will be made to a rate of a future year(s) to compensate for the difference between the costs used to establish the fixed rate and actual costs.
Variable Rate Transaction Until none of the Warrants are outstanding, the Company and each Subsidiary shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Placement involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company or any Subsidiary (i) issues or sells any Convertible Securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of, or quotations for, the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock, other than pursuant to a customary “weighted average” anti-dilution provision or (ii) enters into any agreement (including, without limitation, an equity line of credit) whereby the Company or any Subsidiary may sell securities at a future determined price (other than standard and customary “preemptive” or “participation” rights). Each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.
Interest on Fixed Rate Notes Each Fixed Rate Note bears interest from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date which is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement at the rate(s) per annum equal to the Fixed Rate(s) of Interest specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement to (but excluding) the Fixed Interest Date(s) in each year and to (but excluding) the Maturity Date so specified if it does not fall on a Fixed Interest Date, and such interest will be paid in arrear on the Fixed Interest Date(s) or the Maturity Date so specified (as the case may be). The first payment of interest shall be made on the Fixed Interest Date next following the Interest Commencement Date and, if the first anniversary of the Interest Commencement Date is not a Fixed Interest Date, will amount to the Initial Broken Amount specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement. If the Maturity Date is not a Fixed Interest Date, interest from (and including) the preceding Fixed Interest Date (or the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the Maturity Date will amount to the Final Broken Amount specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement. Except in the case of Notes in definitive form where a Fixed Coupon Amount or Broken Amount is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, interest shall be calculated in respect of any period by applying the Rate of Interest to:
(A) in the case of Fixed Rate Notes which are represented by a Global Note, the aggregate outstanding nominal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes represented by such Global Note (or, if they are Partly Paid Notes, the aggregate amount paid up); or
(B) in the case of Fixed Rate Notes in definitive form, the Calculation Amount; and, in each case, multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction, and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. Where the Specified Denomination of a Fixed Rate Note in definitive form is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the amount of interest payable in respect of such Fixed Rate Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for the Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination without any further rounding.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE For the first 60 payments, the interest rate on this loan will be 3.950%. Thereafter, the interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the One (1) year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate as published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that the Index for this Note has become unavailable or unreliable, either temporarily, indefinitely, or permanently, during the term of this Note, Lender may amend this Note by designating a substantially similar substitute index. Lender may also amend and adjust any margin corresponding to the Index being substituted to accompany the substitute index. Margins corresponding to the Index are described in the "Payments" section. The change to the margin may be a positive or negative value, or zero. In making these amendments, Lender may take into consideration any then-prevailing market convention for selecting a substitute index and margin for the specific Index that is unavailable or unreliable. Such an amendment to the terms of this Note will become effective and bind Borrower 10 business days after Xxxxxx gives written notice to Borrower without any action or consent of the Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Xxxxxxxx's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each twelve (12) months. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The interest rate or rates to be applied to the unpaid principal balance during this Note will be the rate or rates set forth herein in the "Payment" section. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, after the first payment stream, the interest rate for each subsequent payment stream will be effective as of the due date of the last payment in the just-ending payment stream. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be less than 3.950% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Notwithstanding the above provisions, the maximum increase or decrease in the interest rate at any one time on this loan will not exceed 2.000 percentage points. The initial fixed rate is not considered in applying this limitation. Whenever increases occur in the interest rate, Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (A) increase Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final maturity date, (B) increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower's payments, and (D) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final payment.
