CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES; COMPENSATION SECTION 8.01. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period:
(a) the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered in the relevant market for such Interest Period, or
(b) the Required Banks advise the Administrative Agent that the London Interbank Offered Rate, as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding the relevant type of Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Banks to make the type of Euro-Dollar Loans specified in such notice shall be suspended. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least 2 Domestic Business Days before the date of any Borrowing of such type of Euro-Dollar Loans for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.
Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law shall result in the imposition, modification or applicability of any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Credit Party, or shall result in the imposition on any Credit Party or the London interbank market of any other condition affecting this Agreement, such Credit Party’s Commitment or any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan made by such Credit Party or any Letter of Credit, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Credit Party of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan or of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Credit Party hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Credit Party to be material, then such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Credit Party for such additional costs or reduction will be paid by the Borrowers to such Credit Party upon demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be entitled to request compensation under this paragraph, (A) with respect to any Competitive Loan made by such Credit Party if the Change in Law giving rise to such request was applicable to such Credit Party at the time of submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Competitive Loan was made or issued, or (B) with respect to any Change in Law in respect of costs imposed on such Lender or Issuing Bank under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III (x) if the applicable Change in Law and the resulting costs shall have become fully effective without the need for any further legislative or regulatory action, and such increased costs shall have been determined by such Credit Party, in each case prior to July 20, 2011, or (y) if it shall not be the general policy or practice of such Credit Party to seek compensation in similar circumstances under similar provisions in comparable credit facilities, as determined in good faith by such Credit Party.
(b) If any Credit Party shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Credit Party’s capital or on the capital of such Credit Party’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, such Credit Party’s Commitment or the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued by such Credit Party pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Credit Party or such Credit Party’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Credit Party’s policies and the policies of such Credit Party’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Credit Party to be material, then from time to time such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Credit Party for such reduction will be paid by the Borrowers to such Credit Party.
(c) A certificate of any Credit Party setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Credit Party or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Credit Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same.
(d) Failure on the part of any Credit Party to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Credit Party’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Credit Party pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 90 days prior to the date that such Credit Party notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions and of such Credit Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Credit Party regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law which shall have occurred or been imposed.
Change in Circumstances Section 8.1 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Euro-Dollar Loan or Money Market LIBOR Loan:
(a) the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of "London Interbank Offered Rate" in Section 2.7 are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Fixed Rate Loans as provided herein; or
(b) in the case of a Committed Borrowing, Banks having 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Commitments advise the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding their Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Banks to make, Continue or Convert into Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. During any such suspension unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least two Domestic Business Days before the date of any Fixed Rate Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow, Continue or Convert, as the case may be, on such date, (i) if such Fixed Rate Borrowing is a Committed Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be made or Continued as, or Converted into, a Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) if such Fixed Rate Borrowing is a Money Market LIBOR Borrowing, the Money Market LIBOR Loans comprising such Borrowing shall bear interest for each day from and including the first day to but excluding the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto at the Base Rate for such day.

Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances (a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, 3.5 or 5.4, (b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result thereof any of the actions described in such Section is required to be taken or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank or other financial institution, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default under Section 11.1 or 11.5 shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other amounts (other than any disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender.
(b) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that pursuant to the terms of Section 13.1 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (c) the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender the amount, if any, owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 5.1(b).

(i) subjects any Lender or any Notional Euro-Rate Funding Office to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans or payments by the Borrowers of principal, interest, commitment fees or other amounts due from the Borrowers hereunder or under the Notes (except for taxes on the overall net income or overall gross receipts of such Lender or such Notional Euro-Rate Funding Office imposed by the jurisdictions (federal, state and local) in which the Lender's principal office or Notional Euro-Rate Funding Office is located),

Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrowers to such Lender five Business Days after such notice is given, together with an amount equal to interest on such amount from the date two Business Days after the date demanded until such due date at the Base Rate Option. A certificate by such Lender as to the amount due and payable under this Section 2.10(a) from time to time and the method of calculating such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21(a).

The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.
Termination Under Certain Circumstances If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail to take up and pay for the amount of Firm Shares agreed by such Underwriter or Underwriters to be purchased hereunder, upon tender of such Firm Shares in accordance with the terms hereof, and the amount of Firm Shares not purchased aggregates more than 10% of the total amount of Firm Shares set forth in Schedule I hereto, and arrangements satisfactory to you for the purchase of such Firm Shares by other persons are not made within 36 hours thereafter, this Agreement shall terminate.
