If ICE Benchmark Administration no longer reports the LIBOR or if Lender determines in good faith that the rate so reported no longer accurately reflects the rate available to Lender in the London Interbank Market or if such index no longer exists or accurately reflects the rate available to Lender in the London Interbank Market, Lender may select a replacement index.
