Conversion to Fixed Rate Clause Samples
The "Conversion to Fixed Rate" clause allows a party to change an existing variable or floating interest rate to a fixed rate under specified conditions. Typically, this clause outlines the process for initiating the conversion, the timing, and how the new fixed rate will be determined, such as referencing prevailing market rates or a predetermined formula. Its core function is to provide flexibility and certainty for parties seeking to manage interest rate risk by locking in a stable payment structure, thereby protecting against future rate fluctuations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Tenant's failure to renew the Letters of Credit, or provide an Alternate Letters of Credit, in accordance with the terms of this Lease shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder in the event that the interest rate on the Bonds is converted to a fixed rate pursuant to the Indenture prior to the expiration of the Letters of Credit or Alternate Letters of Credit, as the case may be.

The Indenture provides that the Company shall have the option to direct that the interest rate on the Bonds be converted from the Floating Rate to the Fixed Rate on any Business Day selected for such purpose (the “Conversion Date”), upon satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. Notice of the exercise of such option shall be given, at the direction of the Company, by the Trustee to the Owners of the Bonds at least twenty (20) days but not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Conversion Date in accordance with the requirements of the Indenture. If the Remarketing Agent has not presented to the Company firm commitments for the purchase of, and/or a firm agreement to underwrite the sale of, all of the Bonds on the Conversion Date by the close of business on the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the proposed Conversion Date, the Company, at its option, may rescind its election to exercise the Conversion Option by delivering a written notice of rescission to the Trustee, the Tender Agent (as herein defined) and the Bank by the close of business of the Trustee on the fourth (4th) Business Day prior to the proposed Conversion Date. Thereupon, the Company shall direct the Trustee to immediately notify the Owners of such rescission, and the Bonds shall continue to bear interest at the Floating Rate (at the rate in effect for the then current Weekly Period and, thereafter, at the Floating Rate established for each subsequent Weekly Period in accordance with the Indenture), until the Company shall elect to exercise the Conversion Option and establish a Conversion Date in accordance with the Indenture.

Borrower shall request such a conversion by an irrevocable written notice to Lender in the form of Exhibit E, appropriately completed (a "Notice of Interest Rate Conversion"), which specifies, among other things, the date of the requested conversion, which shall be a Business Day. Borrower shall give a Notice of Interest Rate Conversion to Lender at least three (3) Business Days before the date of the requested conversion. The Notice of Interest Rate Conversion shall be delivered by first-class mail or telecopy to Lender at the office or to the telecopy number and during the hours specified in Paragraph 10.1; provided, however, that Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender the original of any Notice of Interest Rate Conversion initially delivered by telecopy. If Borrower is in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified in the Notice of Interest Rate Conversion Lender shall notify Borrower of the effectiveness of the conversion, the amount of the Fixed Rate and the Liquidation Costs incurred by Lender in effecting such conversion.
Conversion to Fixed Rate. The Borrower may convert to a Fixed Rate (defined herein) for any portion or all of the principal amount of the Commitment then outstanding at any time provided RTFC offers a Fixed Rate at such time for such amounts and for similarly classified loans. The "Fixed Rate" shall be the fixed rate as is available and in effect for similarly classified loans at the time Borrower's election to convert to such fixed rate plus twenty-five basis points. The Fixed Rate shall apply to such amounts converted until a date determined by RTFC and agreed to by Borrower (the "Adjustment Date"). Upon notice given by the Borrower five business days prior to such Adjustment Date, Borrower may elect to reset the interest rate to such Fixed Rate as is available and in effect at the time of such Adjustment Date. Such reset Fixed Rate shall apply to that portion of the outstanding principal balance of the loan elected to have a Fixed Rate from the Adjustment Date until a new Adjustment Date or the Maturity Date. If Borrower does not elect to reset the Fixed Rate, the Variable Rate shall apply to the outstanding principal balance of the loan that had been bearing interest at the Fixed Rate prior to such Adjustment Date, from such Adjustment Date to the Maturity Date. Interest at the Fixed Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year.

i) an Authorized Person must deliver to the Bank by 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on a Business Day a Notice of Conversion (“Notice of Conversion”) for an election under this Section 3(c) .
ii) The Continuation Date shall be the later of (A) two (2) Business Days from the Business Day the Bank receives the Notice of Conversion in accordance with the foregoing Section or (B) the last day of the relevant Interest Period if a Notice of Conversion is received by the Bank more than two (2) Business Days before the last day of an Interest Period. If a Notice of Conversion is received after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), the Notice of Conversion will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Notice of Conversion received more than two (2) Business Days before the end of an Interest Period shall be deemed to have been received two (2) Business Days before the end of such Interest Period for purposes of determining the Fixed Rate for the remaining term of this Note pursuant to Section 1(h).

The Bank shall incur no liability to Borrower or to any other person as a direct or indirect result of acting on any Notice of Conversion under this Note.
