Interest Rate Legislation Sample Clauses
Related to Interest Rate Legislation
Interest Rate Limitation Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
Interest Rate Protection No later than the 90th day after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall enter into, and for a minimum of three years thereafter maintain, Hedging Agreements acceptable to the Administrative Agent that result in at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of its funded long-term Indebtedness being effectively subject to a fixed or maximum interest rate acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
Notification of rates of interest The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.
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.

Interest Rate Options The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that (i) there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and (ii) if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.
Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to the matters covered:
Interest Rate Protection Agreements Within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, the Borrower shall enter into interest rate protection agreements (protecting against fluctuations in interest rates) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which agreements shall provide coverage in an amount equal to 50% of the outstanding Term Loan and for the duration of the Term Loan.
INTEREST RATE NOT ASCERTAINABLE, ETC In the event that the Domestic Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be made in good faith and, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) that on any date for determining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any Interest Period, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the London interbank market or the Domestic Agent’s position in such markets, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate, then, and in any such event, the Domestic Agent shall forthwith give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Interface and to the Lenders of such determination and a summary of the basis for such determination. Until the Domestic Agent notifies Interface that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension described herein no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make or permit portions of the Domestic Syndicated Loans to remain outstanding as LIBOR Advances, as the case may be, shall be suspended, (ii) [intentionally omitted], and (iii) all such affected Advances shall bear the same interest as Base Rate Advances; provided that Interface shall pay to the Domestic Agent and the Lenders any and all costs, fees and other expenses incurred by the Domestic Agent and the Lenders in effecting such conversion.
Interest Rate Risk Management Instruments All interest rate swaps, caps, floors and option agreements and other interest rate risk management arrangements, whether entered into for the account of CCB or for the account of a customer of CCB or one of its Subsidiaries, were entered into in the ordinary course of business and, to CCB's knowledge, in accordance with prudent banking practice and applicable rules, regulations and policies of any Regulatory Authority and with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time and are legal, valid and binding obligations of CCB or one of its Subsidiaries enforceable in accordance with their terms (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies), and are in full force and effect. CCB and each of its Subsidiaries have duly performed in all material respects all of their material obligations thereunder to the extent that such obligations to perform have accrued; and to CCB's knowledge, there are no material breaches, violations or defaults or allegations or assertions of such by any party thereunder.
