Section 3.02 Illegality. If the Agent determines that any applicable law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to Daily Simple SOFR , after the Term SOFR Transition Date, Term SOFR or SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Daily Simple SOFR after the Term SOFR Transition Date, Term SOFR or SOFR, then, upon notice thereof to the Borrower, (a) any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the SOFR or, as applicable, Term SOFR, component of Base Rate, in each case until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from the Agent, prepay or, if applicable, convert all SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Lender without reference to the SOFR or, as applicable, Term SOFR, component of Base Rate), (A) on the Interest Payment Date therefor, if the Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans or (B) on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if the Term SOFR Transition Date and the Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans and (ii) the Lenders shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate without reference to the SOFR or, as applicable, Term SOFR, component thereof until it is no longer illegal for the Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Daily Simple SOFR or , after the Term SOFR Transition Date, Term SOFR. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.04.

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. (a) Temporary. If Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that “Daily Simple SOFR” or, after the Term SOFR Transition Date, “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof other than due to a Benchmark Transition Event (or a Term SOFR Transition Event), Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower. Upon notice thereof by Agent to the Borrower, (i) any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended, (ii) all SOFR Loans shall be immediately converted to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall be determined by Agent without reference to the SOFR component of Base Rate) and (iii) the component of Base Rate based upon SOFR or, as applicable, Term SOFR, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate, in each case, until Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(b) Permanent. If any Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that “Daily Simple SOFR” or, after the Term SOFR Transition Date, “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event. Upon notice thereof by Agent to the Borrower, (i) any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended, (ii) all SOFR Loans shall be immediately converted to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Agent without reference to the SOFR component of Base Rate) and (iii) the component of Base Rate based upon SOFR or, as applicable, Term SOFR. will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. Unless and until the Lenders and the Borrower have amended this Agreement to provide for a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with Section [11.xx] of this Agreement, all Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

Section 3.04 Breakage Compensation. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor or, after the Term SOFR Transition Date, the last day of an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor or, after the Term SOFR Transition Date, the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor or, after the Term SOFR Transition Date, the last day of an Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds. A certificate of the Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that the Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Agent for the benefit of the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 1.9 Representations and Warranties in Credit Agreement. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lenders that: (i) as of the date hereof, to Borrower’s knowledge, no uncured Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, would constitute an Event of Default has occurred, and (ii) all representations and warranties made by Borrower in the Credit Agreement as of the date thereof are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, as if such representations and warranties were recited herein in their entirety, except for those representations and warranties made as of a specific date.
