Common use of DETERMINATION OF FEDERAL FUNDS EFFECTIVE RATE Clause in Contracts

DETERMINATION OF FEDERAL FUNDS EFFECTIVE RATE. If the Interest Rate Basis on this Note is the Federal Funds Effective Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to this Note shall equal with respect to each Interest Determination Date designated on the face hereof the rate on such date for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective)” or, if not so published prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date designated on the face hereof pertaining to such Interest Determination Date, then the Federal Funds Effective Rate will be the rate on such Interest Determination Date as published in Composite Quotations under the heading “Federal Funds/Effective Rate.” If such rate was neither published in H.15(519) by 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date nor in Composite Quotations by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such date, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates, as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, for the last transaction in overnight Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers of Federal Funds transactions in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent; provided, however, that if fewer than three brokers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the rate of interest in effect for the applicable period will be the same as the Federal Funds Effective Rate as adjusted for the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, as the case may be, for the immediately preceding interest reset period. The Federal Funds Effective Rate determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date will become effective on and as of the applicable Interest Reset Date specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that (i) the interest rate in effect for the period from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face hereof; and (ii) the interest rate in effect for the ten days immediately preceding the Stated Maturity or redemption will be that in effect on the tenth day preceding such Stated Maturity or redemption.
