(f) [RESERVED]If a Eurodollar Disruption Event has occurred pursuant to clauses (a) – (d) of the definition thereof, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, whereupon all Advances Outstanding of any affected Lender in respect of which Interest accrues at LIBOR shall immediately be converted into Advances Outstanding in respect of which such Interest accrues at the Base Rate, it being understood that, once such Eurodollar Disruption Event ceases to exist, such Lender shall notify the Borrower immediately and all Interest on Advances Outstanding of the such Lender shall immediately accrue at LIBOR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time LIBOR ceases to be updated, or is likely to cease to be updated in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, or a Eurodollar Disruption Event has occurred pursuant to clauses (e) or (f) of the definition thereof, the Administrative Agent shall designate a new benchmark rate (which may include spread adjustments applicable to such rate) to be used to calculate LIBOR, which benchmark rate shall be (a) such benchmark rate being used to calculate the interest rate payable on Loans representing not less than 30% of the Outstanding Balance of Floating Rate Loans, (b) such benchmark rate formally proposed or recommended (whether by letter, protocol, publication of standard terms or otherwise) by the Loan Syndication and Trading Association or the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (or such successor organization, as applicable) as a replacement benchmark rate for the applicable LIBOR, or (c) such other benchmark rate as is otherwise consented to by the Collateral Manager; provided that if no such benchmark rate as described in clause (a) or (b) is available and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Manager are unable to agree on a replacement rate pursuant to clause (c), all Advances Outstanding of any affected Lender in respect of which Interest accrues at LIBOR shall continue to accrue Interest at the Base Rate. (g) Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Party’s right to demand or receive such compensation, provided that, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Affected Party pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of the change in Applicable Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Affected Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the change in Applicable Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
