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.
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 Interest Rate 5.10.1 In respect of Pre-Delivery Interest Periods or Interest Periods pursuant to Clause 5.3.1 and subject to Clause 5.3.1, Clause 5.12 and Clause 6, the rate of interest applicable to the Loan (or relevant part in the case of the division of the Loan under Clause 5.8) during a Pre-Delivery Interest Period or an Interest Period shall be the Floating Interest Rate. 5.10.2 In respect of Interest Periods pursuant to Clause 5.3.2 and subject to Clause 5.3.2, Clause 5.12 and Clause 6, the rate of interest applicable to the Loan (or relevant part in the case of the division of the Loan under Clause 5.8) during an Interest Period shall be the Fixed Rate.

Fixed Interest Rates Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD loans and situations where default interest is imposed.
Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 2.14(c) of this Agreement, such Section 2.14(c) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.14(c), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
FIXED ACCOUNT FIXED ACCOUNT The Fixed Account is comprised of a one-year Guaranteed Period Option and the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Option that we may choose to offer. Premium payments applied to and any amounts transferred to the Fixed Account will reflect a fixed interest rate. The interest rates we set will be credited for increments of at least one year measured from each premium payment or transfer date. These rates will never be less than the Fixed Account Guaranteed Minimum Effective Annual Interest Rate shown on Page 3. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to prohibit premium payments and/or transfers allocated to any of the Fixed Account options described in this section after the Policy Date. We will provide 30 days advance written notice of this decision. We will also provide timely written notification to You once any such prohibition of premium payments and/or transfers is no longer in effect. GUARANTEED PERIOD OPTION We will offer the one-year Guaranteed Period Option for the initial premium payment and may offer it for subsequent premium payments or amounts transferred to the Fixed Account. The current interest rate we set for funds entering a Guaranteed Period Option (GPO) is guaranteed until the end of that option's Guaranteed Period. At that time, the premium payment made or amount transferred into the GPO, less any Withdrawals or transfers from that GPO, plus accrued interest, will be rolled into a new one-year GPO or may be transferred to any Subaccount(s) within the Separate Account(s). You may choose the Investment Option(s) You want the funds transferred into by giving us a written notice within 30 days before the end of the expiring option's Guaranteed Period. However, any Guaranteed Period elected may not extend beyond the maximum Annuity Commencement Date defined in Section 11. In the absence of such election, the funds will be rolled into a new one-year GPO if we are allowing transfers into new one-year GPO's at that time You will be mailed a notice of completion of any rollover with the new interest rate applicable. The new GPO will be deemed as accepted if we do not receive a written rejection within 30 days from the postmark date of the completion notice. If we are prohibiting transfers into new one-year GPO's, we will provide 30 days advance written notice of this decision. We will also provide timely written notification to you once any such prohibition of transfers is no longer in effect. When funds are withdrawn or transferred from the one year GPO, the Policy Value associated with the oldest premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred first. If the amount withdrawn/transferred exceeds the Policy Value associated with the oldest premium, the Policy Value associated with the next oldest premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred next, and so on until the Policy Value associated with the most recent premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred (this is a "First-In, First-Out" or FIFO basis).
Determination of Applicable Interest Rate As soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Advances for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.
FIXED AMOUNTS The fixed amounts contained in Section I of this agreement are based on an estimate of the costs that will be incurred during the period to which the amounts apply. When the actual costs for this period are determined, any differences between the fixed costs used as an estimate and the actual costs will be considered in a subsequent agreement.
Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio The Borrowers shall not permit the Interest Coverage Ratio, calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the four fiscal quarters then ended, to be less than 3.50 to 1.00.
