Provisions Relating to LIBOR Rate Tranches. If, on the date for determining the LIBOR Rate in respect of any LIBOR Rate Tranche, any Buyer determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding, absent error) that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Buyer of funding such LIBOR Rate Tranche, then such Buyer shall notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Seller, of such determination, whereupon the obligation of such Buyer to make, or to convert any Tranche to, LIBOR Rate Tranches shall be suspended until such Buyer notifies the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent notifies the Seller, that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. Outstanding LIBOR Rate Tranches held by such Buyer shall thereupon automatically be converted to bear interest at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus the LIBOR Margin, and in such event, the Seller will thereafter be entitled to designate subsequent Tranches to bear interest at the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus the LIBOR Margin. If, after the date of this Agreement, any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Buyer to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Rate Tranches, such Buyer shall notify the Seller and the Administrative Agent, whereupon the obligation of such Buyer to make or convert Tranches into LIBOR Rate Tranches, shall be suspended until such Buyer notifies the Seller and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. If any Buyer determines that it may not lawfully continue to maintain any LIBOR Rate Tranches, all of the affected Tranches shall be automatically converted as of the date of such Buyer’s notice to bear interest at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus the LIBOR Margin and, in such event, the Seller will thereafter be entitled to designate subsequent Tranches to bear interest at the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus the LIBOR Margin.
