Each Lender at its option may make any Advance by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance, provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow and prepay Advances.

If, on any date the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances is less than the Minimum Funding Amount specified in the definition of the term Minimum Funding Amount, then the Company shall pay the Lenders interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Applicable Margin for Advances in U.S. Dollars set forth on the Transaction Schedule multiplied by (ii) the amount equal to the Minimum Funding Amount minus the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances. For purposes of the foregoing, the Benchmark for each Calculation Period with respect to Daily Simple XXXXX shall be the weighted average of such Benchmark as determined on each day during such Calculation Period in respect of Advances denominated in GBP.
| (c) | Evidence of the Advances. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its |
