Mortality Rates. The loss of life in the event of large-scale flood- ing is related to the number of people in an area during the onset of a flood and can be calculated by accounting for the local characteristics and the loca- tion of people.(3,78) This research uses the total num- ber of people who are exposed during the onset of a flood and relates that to the water depth and wa- ter velocity. Literature about loss of life in case of flood shows that a first estimation of mortality rates for coastal or river flooding is about 0.1–1% of the to- tal affected population,(78,3,79) where the 0.1% is for a situation with multiple emergency measures. Other literature has shown that the probability of loss of life is also related to the local situation and age of persons(54–56) and the circumstances when people get hit.(54,57,20,80,81) To compare the loss of life for different evacua- tion strategies, different locations are defined and a mortality rate must be defined for each. No detailed functions exist or are known that relate loss of life to a specific type of location. On the basis of the literature above and expert opinion mortality rates are estimated for the Dutch situation. These mortality rates have been applied to the number of people who live in each dike ring area taking into account the consequences of evacuation. These results for the most critical dike ring are (dike ring 14) area have been compared with results of a fully probabilistic flood risk assessment for the cur- rent situation, which showed similar numbers for loss of life.(52) The expected loss of life for dike ring area 14 is within the same range. Therefore, it is concluded to be adequate for this purpose, the rates are:

Mortality Rates. The SEER*Stat® software package,8 developed by the Information Management Services Inc. for NCI, was used to calculate both incidence and mortality rates. Rates are expressed per 100,000 population. Age-adjustment of rates was calculated by the direct method adjusting to the 2000 U.S. standard million population. Rates are rounded to the nearest 10th and very small rates (e.g., 0.04) are shown as 0.0. They are presented with the lower and upper confidence intervals computed at the 95 percent level using Tiwari method.9 Algorithms used for the calculation of standard errors and 95 percent confidence intervals are displayed in Appendix C of the state incidence report (see Illinois State Cancer Incidence and Mortality Review and Update). As mentioned above, due to NCHS policy, mortality statistics were not calculated for cells containing less than 10 deaths. This is not the case for incidence rate associated statistics. Race-specific Rates: The race-specific categories in these data are “All Races” combined, “White,” “Black” and “Asian/Other Races.” Cases reported as unknown race were included in the "All races" category, but not in any race-specific group. Ethnicity/Race Rates: Hispanic ethnicity was used as defined in the database. Because there were a considerably large number of cancer deaths with unknown Hispanic ethnicity in the mortality database, the mortality rates calculated for Hispanics may be underestimated. To be consistent with all national reports, categories are reported as "Hispanic (any race)," "Non-Hispanic (any race)," "Non-Hispanic White" and "Non- Hispanic Black." DATA INTERPRETATION Observed variations and differences over years and across sex and race groups in cancer mortality may be real, reflecting modifications in the risk factor status of the population or the consequence of participation in screening and early detection programs. Such changes or differences, however, may not be real, but instead may be the result of random fluctuations and other factors related to the estimation process. Any conclusions should be made only after carefully considering the following factors that influence annual mortality rates. Random fluctuations in annual rates are usual and may be substantial, especially for rates based on small numbers of counts (i.e., less than 16). Population estimates used for denominators may be inaccurate or lack precision. The population data for 1990, 2000 and 2010, the years of the U.S. decennial census, are the most ...

  • 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 Rates; Benchmark Notification The interest rate on a Loan denominated in dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.14(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, 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 will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

  • Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate (i) The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), excluding the Reserve Percentage, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Administrative Borrower and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Administrative Borrower may, by notice to such affected Lender (y) require such Lender to furnish to Administrative Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (z) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under clause (b)(ii) above).

  • Setting and Notice of LIBOR Rates The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by the Administrative Agent promptly to the Company and each Lender. Each determination of the applicable LIBOR Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, in the absence of demonstrable error. The Administrative Agent shall, upon written request of the Company or any Lender, deliver to the Company or such Lender a statement showing the computations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.
