Until the Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension described herein no longer exist (which Lender agrees to give as soon as conditions warrant), the obligations of the Lender to make or permit portions of the Revolving Loans to remain outstanding past the last day of the then current Interest Periods as Eurodollar Advances, shall be suspended, and such affected Advances shall bear the same interest as Base Rate Advances.

Section 4.9 Illegality.

(a) In the event that the Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be made in good faith and, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) at anytime that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Advance has become unlawful by compliance by the Lender in good faith with any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful), then, in any such event, the Lender shall give prompt notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination and a summary of the basis for such determination.

(b) Upon the giving of the notice to Borrower referred to in subsection (a) above, (i) Borrower’s right to request and the Lender’s obligation to make Eurodollar Advances, shall be immediately suspended, and the Lender shall make an Advance as part of the requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Advances as a Base Rate Advance, which Base Rate Advance shall, for all other purposes, be considered part of such Borrowing, and (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Advance or Advances are then outstanding, Borrower shall immediately, or if permitted by applicable law, no later than the date permitted thereby, upon at least one Business Day’s written notice to the Lender, convert each such Advance into an Advance or Advances of a different Type with an

Interest Period ending on the date on which the Interest Period applicable to the affected Eurodollar Advances expires.

(i) the Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) shall be subject to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances, or the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances shall have changed (except for changes in the tax on the net income or profits of the Lender or its applicable Lending Office imposed by any jurisdiction); or

(ii) any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender’s applicable Lending Office shall be imposed or deemed applicable or any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances shall be imposed on the Lender or its applicable Lending Office or the London interbank market or the United States secondary certificate of deposit market;

and as a result thereof there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Advances (except to the extent already included in the determination of the applicable LIBOR Advance Rate for Eurodollar Advances), or there shall be a reduction in the amount received or receivable by the Lender or its applicable Lending Office, then Borrower shall from time to time (subject, in the case of certain Taxes, to the applicable provisions of Section 4.7(b)), upon written notice from and demand by the Lender on Borrower pay to the Lender within five Business Days after the date of such notice and demand, additional amounts sufficient to indemnify the Lender against such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower and the Lender by the Lender in good faith and accompanied by a statement prepared by the Lender describing in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of such increased cost, shall, except for manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(b) If the Lender, because of the circumstances described in clauses (x) or (y) in Section 4.10(a) or any other circumstances beyond the Lender’s reasonable control arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the Lender or the London interbank market or the Lender’s position in such markets, the LIBOR Advance Rate, as determined by the Lender, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding its Eurodollar Advances, then, and in any such event:

(i) The Lender shall forthwith give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower;

(ii) Borrower’s right to request and the Lender’s obligation to make or permit portions of the Loans to remain outstanding past the last day of the then current Interest Periods as Eurodollar Advances, shall be immediately suspended; and

Section 4.13 Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Advances. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article IV shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Advances through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such Eurodollar Advances in an amount equal to the amount of the Eurodollar Advances and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and, in the case of Eurodollar Advances, through the transfer of such Eurodollar Advances from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that the Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Advances in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article IV.

Each certificate as to the amount payable under this Section 4.16 (which certificate shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts in reasonable detail), submitted to Borrower by the Lender in good faith, shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.
