tenor for such Benchmark or payment period for price differential calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, that is or may be used for determining the length of a Pricing Period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date.
“Benchmark” means, initially, LIBOR; provided that, if a Benchmark Transition Event or, as the case may be, an Early Opt-in Election and the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto have occurred
with respect to LIBOR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement.
“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Buyer on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date:
(1) |
the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment with respect thereto;
|
(2) |
the sum of: (a) either of (i) Compounded SOFR or (ii) Daily Simple SOFR, as selected by the Buyer to be the then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the
applicable loan market and (b) the applicable Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;
|
(3) |
the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current
|
Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;
(4) |
the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Buyer as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest
as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar denominated secured financings or securitizations relating to the relevant asset class, as applicable at such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;
|
provided that, in the case of clause (1) of this definition, such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to
time as selected by the Buyer in its reasonable discretion.
If at any time the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2), (3) or (4) of this definition would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the
Floor for the purposes of this Agreement
“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Buyer as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:
(1) |
the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected, endorsed or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the
applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement;
|
(2) |
the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Buyer giving due consideration to any industry-accepted spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread
adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar denominated secured financing or securitization transactions relating to the relevant asset class, as
applicable at such time.

definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Pricing Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of price differential, timing of Transaction requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of
lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Buyer decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit
the administration thereof by the Buyer in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Buyer decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Buyer determines that no
market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other
manner of administration as the Buyer determines is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement.
“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:
(1) |
in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such
Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);
|
(2) |
in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; or
|
(3) |
in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the date set forth in the notice of such Early Opt-in Election that is provided by Buyer to the Seller.
|

Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark
upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).
“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:
(1) |
a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all
Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available
Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);
|
(2) |
a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the

provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication,
there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or
(3) |
a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or
such component thereof) are no longer representative.
|
For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has
occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).
“Compounded SOFR” means the compounded average of SOFRs for the applicable Corresponding Tenor, with the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate (which, for example,
may be compounded in arrears with a lookback and/or suspension period as a mechanism to determine the interest amount payable prior to the end of each Pricing Period or compounded in advance) being established by the Buyer in accordance with:
(1) |
the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining compounded SOFR; provided that:
|
(2) |
if, and to the extent that, the Buyer determines that Compounded SOFR cannot be determined in accordance with clause (1) above, then the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate that have been selected by the Buyer

selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining “Daily Simple SOFR” for business loans at such times; provided that, if the Buyer decides that any such convention is not administratively feasible, then the Buyer may
establish another convention in its reasonable discretion.
“Early Opt-in Election” means, if the then-current Benchmark is LIBOR, the occurrence of the joint election by the Buyer and Seller to trigger a fallback from LIBOR and the provision by the
Buyer of written notice of such election to other parties hereto.
“Floor” means, for any Transaction under this Agreement, the benchmark rate floor (which may be zero), if any, provided for in this Agreement with respect to LIBOR as determined for such
Transaction.
“LIBOR” shall mean, for any Pricing Period with respect to a Purchased Asset, the per annum rate for deposits in U.S. dollars that appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or the successor
thereto) as one-month LIBOR as of the applicable Reference Time, but in no event, less than (x) zero or (y) such other rate with respect to a Transaction as set forth in the related Confirmation.
“Reference Time” with respect to any setting of the then-current Benchmark means (1) if such Benchmark is LIBOR, 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the day that is two London banking days preceding
the date of such setting, and (2) if such Benchmark is not LIBOR, the time determined by the Buyer in accordance with the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.
“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto.
“SOFR” with respect to any day means the secured overnight financing rate published for such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as the administrator of the benchmark, (or a successor
administrator) on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website.
“Term SOFR” means, for the applicable Corresponding Tenor as of the applicable Reference Time, the forward-looking term rate based on SOFR that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body.

4. Section 3(l) of the Repurchase Agreement is hereby deleted and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if:
(i) (A) a Benchmark Transition Event or, as the case may be, an Early Opt-in Election and (B) a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto have occurred prior to
the Reference Time in connection with any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then such Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes under this Agreement and under any other Transaction Document in respect of such
Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without requiring any amendment to, or requiring any further action by or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; or
(ii) (A) a Benchmark Transition Event or, as the case may be, an Early Opt-in Election and the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto has
already occurred prior to the Reference Time for any setting of the then-current Benchmark and as a result the then-current Benchmark is being determined in accordance with clauses (2), (3) or (4)
of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”; and
(B) the Buyer subsequently determines, that (w) Term SOFR and a Benchmark Replacement Adjustment with respect thereto is or has becomes available and the Benchmark
Replacement Date with respect thereto has occurred, (x) there is currently a market for U.S. dollar-denominated transactions utilizing Term SOFR as a Benchmark and for determining the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment with respect thereto, (y) Term
SOFR is being recommended as the Benchmark for U.S. dollar- denominated syndicated credit facilities by the Relevant Government Authority and (z) in any event, Term SOFR, the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment with respect thereto and the application
thereof is administratively feasible for the Buyer (as determined by the Buyer), then clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” will, without requiring any amendment to, or requiring any further action by or consent of any other party
to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, replace such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings on and from the
beginning of the next Pricing Period or, as the case may be, Available Tenor so long as the Buyer notifies Seller prior to the commencement of such next Pricing Period or, as the case may be, Available Tenor.
5. Section 3(m) of the Repurchase Agreement is hereby deleted and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
(m) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Buyer will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without requiring any further action by or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document. The Buyer will promptly notify Seller of (i) any occurrence of (A) a Benchmark Transition Event or, as the case may be, an Early Opt-in Election and (B) the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto, (ii) the

to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made
in the Buyer’s sole discretion and without consent from Seller or any other party to any other Transaction Document.
6. Section 3(t) of the Repurchase Agreement is hereby deleted and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
(t) If any of the events described in Section 3(o), Section 3(p) or Section 3(q) result in Buyer’s request for additional amounts, then,

the contrary, Seller may elect, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent, to terminate all of the Transactions and this Agreement and repurchase all of the Purchased Assets, subject to payment of the Aggregate
Repurchase Price and all other Repurchase Obligations in full. The election by Seller to terminate the Transactions in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(t) shall not relieve Seller of liability with respect to any
additional amounts or increased costs actually incurred by Buyer prior to the actual repurchase of the Purchased Assets. Buyer agrees that, notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement (including Section 3(i)) no Spread
Maintenance Premium shall be payable by Seller in connection with the repurchase of the Purchased Assets in accordance with this Section 3(t).
