LIBOR Rate Not Determinable Clause Samples

The 'LIBOR Rate Not Determinable' clause defines what happens if the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) cannot be established or is unavailable for a particular interest period. Typically, this clause outlines alternative methods for determining the applicable interest rate, such as referencing a different benchmark or using a rate determined by the lender based on prevailing market conditions. Its core function is to ensure continuity and certainty in interest calculations, preventing disruptions to loan agreements or financial contracts when LIBOR is not accessible.
LIBOR Rate Not Determinable. In the event, and on each occasion, that on or before the day on which the LIBOR Rate for any LIBOR Interest Period is to be determined, the Administrative Agent determines in good faith that the LIBOR Rate cannot be determined for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall give written notice of such determination, as soon as practicable thereafter, to the Borrower and the Lenders. Following any such determination until the Administrative Agent has advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3 for a Borrowing of a LIBOR Loan, a conversion of an Alternate Base Rate Loan or a Fed Funds Loan into a LIBOR Loan or a continuation of a LIBOR Loan for an additional LIBOR Interest Period shall be deemed to be, respectively, a request for a Borrowing of an Alternate Base Rate Loan (in the case of a request for a Borrowing of LIBOR Loan) or a conversion of a LIBOR Loan into an Alternate Base Rate Loan (in the case of a request for a 143 conversion or continuation as described above). Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

  • Interest Rate Determination (a) To the extent required hereunder, each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurodollar Rate. If fewer than two Reference Banks furnish such timely information to the Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining any such rate, the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Bank. (b) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.09(a) or (b), and, if applicable, the applicable rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of determining the applicable interest rate under Section 2.09(b). (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, (i) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, or (ii) the Reference Banks notify the Administrative Agent that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon (A) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (d) If the applicable Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Advances. (e) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $10,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances. (f) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended.

  • Interest Rate Not Ascertainable If Agent shall determine that on any date for determining LIBOR, due to any circumstance affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then Agent shall immediately notify Borrowers of such determination.

  • Interest Determination Dates The interest rate applicable to a Floating Rate Note for an Interest Reset Period commencing on the related Interest Reset Date will be determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis as of the particular “Interest Determination Date”, which will be: (1) with respect to the Federal Funds Open Rate—the related Interest Reset Date; (2) with respect to the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate and the Prime Rate—the Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date; (3) with respect to the CD Rate and the CMT Rate—the second Business Day preceding the related Interest Reset Date; (4) with respect to the Constant Maturity Swap Rate—the second U.S. Government Securities business day preceding the related Interest Reset Date, provided, however, that if after attempting to determine the Constant Maturity Swap Rate, such rate is not determinable for a particular Interest Determination Date, then such Interest Determination Date shall be the first U.S. Government Securities business day preceding the original interest determination date for which the Constant Maturity Swap Rate can be determined; (5) with respect to LIBOR—the second London Banking Day (as defined below) preceding the related Interest Reset Date; and (6) with respect to the Treasury Rate—the day of the week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which day Treasury Bills (as defined below) are normally auctioned (i.e., Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that the auction may be held on the preceding Friday); provided, however, that if an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset Date, the Interest Determination Date will be the preceding Friday. The Interest Determination Date pertaining to a Floating Rate Note, the interest rate of which is determined with reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases, will be the latest Business Day which is at least two Business Days before the related Interest Reset Date for the applicable Floating Rate Note on which each Interest Reset Basis is determinable. “London Banking Day” means a day on which commercial banks are open for business (including dealings in the LIBOR Currency) in London.

  • INTEREST RATE NOT ASCERTAINABLE, ETC In the event that the Administrative 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 LIBOR for any Interest Period, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the London interbank market, or the Administrative Agent's position in such market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and to the Lenders, of such determination and a summary of the basis for such determination. Until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension described herein no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make or permit portions of the Loans to remain outstanding past the last day of the then current Interest Periods as Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended, and such affected Advances shall bear interest at the Base Rate (or at such other rate of interest per annum as Borrower and each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have agreed to in writing).
