(iii) impose on any Bank any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans or such Bank’s Commitment, in each case with respect to such Borrower; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any Loan to such Borrower or such Bank’s Commitment in favor of such Borrower, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) from such Borrower under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then, promptly upon demand by such Bank (and in any event within thirty (30) days after demand by such Bank) and delivery to such Borrower of the certificate required by clause (c) of this Section (with a copy to the Agent), such Borrower shall pay to such Bank the additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

(c) Each Bank will promptly notify each Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to compensation from such Borrower pursuant to this Section and, upon the written request of the Borrowers, will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and the calculations used in determining such additional amount or amounts shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Bank notifies the Borrowers of the change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the change 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.
