Determination of Interest Periods The length of each Interest Period shall be as requested by the Borrowers under clause 3.2 but so that:
3.3.1 the first Interest Period in respect of each Tranche shall start on the Drawdown Date in respect of the first Advance in respect of that Tranche, and each subsequent Interest Period shall start on the last day of the previous Interest Period;
3.3.2 the first Interest Period in respect of each subsequent Advance shall commence on its Drawdown Date and terminate simultaneously with the Interest Period which is then current for the Tranche under which the Advance is made available;
3.3.3 if any Interest Period would otherwise overrun a Repayment Date, then, in the case of the last Repayment Date, such Interest Period shall end on such Repayment Date, and in the case of any other Repayment Date the relevant Tranche shall be divided into parts so that there is one part in the amount of the repayment instalment due on each Repayment Date falling in that Interest Period and having an Interest Period ending on the relevant Repayment Date and another part consisting of the balance of the relevant Tranche having an Interest Period ascertained in accordance with the other provisions of this clause 3; and
3.3.4 if the Borrowers fail to specify the length of an Interest Period in accordance with the provisions of clause 3.2 and this clause 3.3 such Interest Period shall last three months or such other period as complies with this clause 3.3.
Selection of Interest Periods (a) A Borrower may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan.
(b) Subject to this Clause 9, a Borrower may select an Interest Period of one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) months or any other period agreed between the Borrower and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders).
(c) An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Termination Date.
(d) Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date.
(e) A Loan has one Interest Period only.
Number of Interest Periods There may be no more than 6 different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans outstanding at the same time.
Duration of normal Interest Periods Subject to Clauses 6.3 and 6.4, each Interest Period shall be:
(a) 3 or 6 months; or
(b) such other period (as proposed by the Borrower to the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Hamburg time) 5 Business Days before the commencement of the Interest Period) as the Agent may, with the authorisation of the Majority Lenders, agree with the Borrower (failing which the Interest Period shall be three months).
Commencement of Interest Periods The first Interest Period shall commence on the Drawdown Date and each subsequent Interest Period shall commence on the expiry of the preceding Interest Period.
Notification of interest periods and default rates The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of each interest rate determined by the Agent under Clause 7.3 and of each period selected by the Agent for the purposes of paragraph (b) of that Clause; but this shall not be taken to imply that the Borrower is liable to pay such interest only with effect from the date of the Agent’s notification.
Notice of Interest Period and Interest Rate Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a), a notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09 or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the definition of “Interest Period”, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender of the applicable Interest Period and the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above.
Rest Period After Overtime (a) When overtime work is necessary, it will, wherever reasonably practicable, be so arranged that employees have at least 10 consecutive hours off duty between the work of successive days or shifts, including overtime.
(b) An employee, other than a casual employee, who works so much overtime between the termination of their ordinary work on one day and the commencement of their ordinary work on the next day, that they have not had at least 10 consecutive hours off duty between those times, will be released after completion of such overtime, until they have had 10 consecutive hours off duty without loss of pay for ordinary working time occurring during such a absence.
(c) If, on the instruction of the employer, an employee resumes or continues to work without having had 10 consecutive hours off duty, they will be paid at the rate of double time until released from duty for such period. The employee will then be entitled to be absent until they have had 10 consecutive hours off duty without loss of pay for rostered ordinary hours occurring during the absence.
Interest Periods In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower, by giving notice at the times described in Section 3.1(a), shall elect an interest period (each, an "Interest Period") to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be a period of one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) months with respect to each LIBOR Rate Loan; provided that:
(i) the Interest Period shall commence on the date of advance of or conversion to any LIBOR Rate Loan or and, in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the date on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;
(ii) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, that if any Interest Period with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;
(iii) any Interest Period with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the relevant calendar month at the end of such Interest Period;
(iv) no Interest Period shall be permitted to extend beyond the Termination Date; and
(v) there shall be no more than five (5) Interest Periods outstanding at any time.
