Annual Percentage Rate Each Receivable has an APR of not more than 25.00%.
Maximum or Minimum Interest Rate If specified on the face hereof, this Note may have either or both of a Maximum Interest Rate or a Minimum Interest Rate. If a Maximum Interest Rate is so designated, the interest rate for a Floating Rate Note cannot ever exceed such Maximum Interest Rate and in the event that the interest rate on any Interest Reset Date would exceed such Maximum Interest Rate (as if no Maximum Interest Rate were in effect) then the interest rate on such Interest Reset Date shall be the Maximum Interest Rate. If a Minimum Interest Rate is so designated, the interest rate for a Floating Rate Note cannot ever be less than such Minimum Interest Rate and in the event that the interest rate on any Interest Reset Date would be less than such Minimum Interest Rate (as if no Minimum Interest Rate were in effect) then the interest rate on such Interest Reset Date shall be the Minimum Interest Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the interest rate on a Floating Rate Note shall not exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable law.
Applicable Margin (i) The Applicable Margin provided for in Section 5.1(a) with respect to any Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans (the "Applicable Margin") shall be based upon the table set forth below and shall be determined and adjusted quarterly on the date (each a "Calculation Date") ten (10) Business Days after the date by which the Borrower is required to provide an Officer's Compliance Certificate for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower; provided, however, that (A) the initial Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans shall be based on Pricing Level IV (as shown below) and shall remain at Pricing Level IV until December 31, 2001, and, thereafter the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date, and (B) if the Borrower fails to provide the Officer's Compliance Certificate as required by Section 8.2 for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans from such Calculation Date shall be based on Pricing Level IV (as shown below) until such time as an appropriate Officer's Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding such Calculation Date. The Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Extensions of Credit then existing or subsequently made or issued. PRICING LEVEL TOTAL LEVERAGE RATIO LIBOR BASE RATE ------------- -------------------- ----- --------- I <2.00x 2.25% 1.25% II greater than or equal to 2.00x but <2.50x 2.50% 1.50% III greater than or equal to 2.50x but <3.00x 2.75% 1.75% IV greater than or equal to 3.00x 3.00% 2.00%
(ii) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.6(g), the Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be based on the table set forth below and shall be determined and adjusted on each Calculation Date until such time as any change in the Applicable Margin or pricing grid, as applicable for Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.6; provided, however that (A) the initial Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be based on Pricing Level II until the Calculation Date of March 31, 2002 and (B) if the Borrower fails to provide the Officer's Compliance Certificate as required by Section 8.2 for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the Applicable Margin for Term Loans from such Calculation Date shall be based on Pricing Level II (as shown below) until such time as an appropriate Officer's Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding such Calculation Date. The Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Term Loans then existing or subsequently made or issued. Applicable LIBOR Applicable Base Rate Level Total Leverage Ratio Rate Margin (bps) Margin (bps) ----- -------------------- ----------------- -------------------- I < 2.50x 300.0 200.0 II greater than or equal to 2.50x 325.0 225.0
Applicable Margins The ABR Applicable Margin and the LIBOR Applicable Margin to be used in calculating the interest rate applicable to different Types of Advances shall vary from time to time in accordance with the long-term unsecured debt ratings from Xxxxx’x, and Fitch of the General Partner and the Borrower. In the event the General Partner and the Borrower have different ratings, the rating of the higher rated entity shall be used. In the event the rating agencies are split on the rating for the higher rated entity, the lower rating for such entity shall be deemed to be the applicable rating (e.g., if the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating is Baa1, and its Fitch’s rating is BBB, then the Applicable Margins shall be computed based on the Fitch rating), and the Applicable Margins shall be adjusted effective on the next Business Day following any change in the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating, and/or Fitch’s debt rating, as the case may be. The applicable debt ratings and the Applicable Margins are set forth in the table attached as Exhibit A. In the event that Fitch or Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the General Partner or the Borrower, a mutually agreeable substitute rating agency (or two mutually agreeable substitute agencies if both existing rating agencies discontinue such ratings) shall be selected by the Required Lenders and the Borrower. If the Required Lenders and the Borrower cannot agree on a substitute rating agency or substitute rating agencies within thirty (30) days after such discontinuance, or if Fitch and Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the Borrower, or the General Partner, the Applicable Margin to be used for the calculation of interest on Advances hereunder shall be the highest Applicable Margin for each Type. If a rating agency downgrade or discontinuance results in an increase in the ABR Applicable Margin, the LIBOR Applicable Margin, or Facility Fee Rate and if such downgrade or discontinuance is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, at the Borrower’s request, the Borrower shall receive a credit against interest next due the Lenders equal to interest accrued from time to time during such period of downgrade or discontinuance and actually paid by the Borrower on the Advances at the differential between such Applicable Margins, and the differential of the Facility Fee paid during such period of downgrade. If a rating agency upgrade results in a decrease in the ABR Applicable Margin, LIBOR Applicable Margin or Facility Fee Rate and if such upgrade is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower shall be required to pay an amount to the Lenders equal to the interest differential on the Advances and the differential on the Facility Fees during such period of upgrade.
Reserve Percentage For any Interest Period, that percentage which is specified three (3) Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) or any other governmental or quasi-governmental authority with jurisdiction over Agent or any Lender for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including, but not limited to, any marginal reserve requirement) for Agent or any Lender with respect to liabilities constituting of or including (among other liabilities) Eurocurrency liabilities in an amount equal to that portion of the Loan affected by such Interest Period and with a maturity equal to such Interest Period.
Maximum Interest Rate In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable under applicable law with respect to loans of the Type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 3.3, have been paid or accrued if the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrower such excess.
Spread; Spread Multiplier; Index Maturity The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified on the face hereof to be added to or subtracted from the related Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases applicable to this Note. The “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified on the face hereof of the related Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases applicable to this Note by which the Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases will be multiplied to determine the applicable interest rate. The “Index Maturity” is the period to maturity of the instrument or obligation with respect to which the related Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases will be calculated.
Rate Increases In the event that this Agreement is renewed pursuant to Section 3.1.2, the rate set forth in Exhibit “C” may be adjusted each year at the time of renewal as set forth in Exhibit “C.”
Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurodollar Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.
Mandate Rate The Mandate Rate shall be based upon the monthly average of the net assets of the funds in the Equity asset class, as indicated on Master Schedule A to Management Contracts, as may be updated from time to time, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Contract, (computed in the manner set forth in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust or other organizational document) determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month. The Mandate Rate may vary by class. The Mandate Rate shall be determined on a cumulative basis pursuant to the schedule set forth in Schedule 1 of this Contract.
