Interest on the Revolving Loans shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Rate plus the greater of (A) zero percent (0.0%) and (B) the one-month LIBOR rate quoted by Bank from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any successor thereto, which shall be that one-month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to the Reprice Date, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation, such rate rounded up to the nearest one sixteenth percent and such rate to be reset monthly on each Reprice Date. The term “Reprice Date” means the first day of each month. If a Revolving Loan under this Agreement is made other than on the Reprice Date, the initial one-month LIBOR rate shall be that one-month LIBOR rate in effect two 4


 
New York Banking Days prior to the date of the funding of such Revolving Loan, which rate plus the percentage described above shall be in effect until the next Reprice Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Loans is not ascertainable or does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining the Revolving Loans and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (B) ICE Benchmark Administration (or any Person that takes over the administration of such rate) discontinues its administration and publication of interest settlement rates for deposits in Dollars, or (C) the supervisor for the administrator of such interest settlement rate or a governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Bank has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which such interest settlement rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Bank shall determine an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR rate described above that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for comparable bank-originated commercial loans in the United States at such time and, if necessary, the Bank and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Such alternate rate shall be adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.4(a)(i), interest on each Revolving Loan hereunder shall accrue at the Money Market Rate. If the alternate rate of interest determined pursuant to this Section 2.4(a)(i) shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. The Bank's internal records of applicable interest rates (including without limitation the Bank’s designation of any successor interest rate index if the rate index described above shall become temporarily unavailable) shall be determinative in the absence of manifest error. (ii) Interest Rate on the Term Loans. The unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans will accrue interest for an amount of the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans as selected by the Borrower upon a minimum of two New York Banking Days prior notice, at the per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin plus the greater of (A) zero percent (0.0%) and (B) the 1, 3 or 6 month LIBOR rate (such period to be chosen by the Borrower) quoted by the Bank from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any successor thereto, which shall be the LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to commencement of such interest period, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation (a “LIBOR Rate Loan”). In the event the Borrower does not timely select another interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Bank may at any time after the end of the Loan 5


 
Period convert the LIBOR Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan at the 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to the end of such Loan Period as determined above in this clause (ii), but until such conversion, the funds advanced under the LIBOR Rate Loan shall continue to accrue interest at the same rate as the interest rate in effect for such LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the Loan Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) the interest rate applicable to the Term Loans is not ascertainable or does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining the Term Loans and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (B) ICE Benchmark Administration (or any Person that takes over the administration of such rate) discontinues its administration and publication of interest settlement rates for deposits in Dollars, or (C) the supervisor for the administrator of such interest settlement rate or a governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Bank has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which such interest settlement rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Bank shall determine an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR rate described above that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for comparable bank-originated commercial loans in the United States at such time and, if necessary, the Bank and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Such alternate rate shall be adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.4(a)(ii), interest on the Term Loans hereunder shall accrue at the Money Market Rate. If the alternate rate of interest determined pursuant to this Section 2.4(a)(ii) shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. The Bank's internal records of applicable interest rates (including without limitation the Bank’s designation of any successor interest rate index if the rate index described above shall become temporarily unavailable) shall be determinative in the absence of manifest error. No LIBOR Rate Loan may extend beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Term Loan II Maturity Date, as applicable. In any event, if the Loan Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan should happen to extend beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Term Loan II Maturity Date, as applicable, then such LIBOR Rate Loan must be prepaid on the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Term Loan II Maturity Date, as applicable. The Bank’s internal records of applicable interest rates shall be determinative in the absence of manifest error. Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. The aggregate 6


 
number of LIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any one time for either Term Loan may not exceed 6. If a LIBOR Rate Loan is prepaid prior to the end of the Loan Period for such loan, whether voluntarily or because prepayment is required due to the occurrence of the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Term Loan II Maturity Date, as applicable, or due to acceleration of the Obligations upon default or otherwise, the Borrower agrees to pay all of the Bank’s costs, expenses and Interest Differential (as determined by the Bank) incurred as a result of such prepayment. Because of the short-term duration of any Loan Period, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such LIBOR Rate Loan. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Borrower shall be required to pay Interest Differential with respect to any portion of the principal balance paid before its scheduled due date, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, or otherwise, including without limitation any principal payment made following default, demand for payment, acceleration, collection proceedings, foreclosure, sale or other disposition of collateral, bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings, eminent domain, condemnation or otherwise.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments for a Prepayment Event. If at any time a Prepayment Event occurs, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Bank the net proceeds realized by such Prepayment Event as a prepayment of Term Loan II and after Term Loan II has been paid in full, then as a prepayment of the Term Loan, along with any Interest Differential required under Section 2.4(a)(ii).
