If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.
Applicable Margin On any date the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans shall be as set forth below based on the ratio of the Consolidated Total Indebtedness of REIT and its respective Subsidiaries to the Gross Asset Value of REIT and its respective Subsidiaries: Pricing Level Ratio LIBOR Rate Loans Base Rate Loans Pricing Level 1 Less than or equal to 35% 2.50 % 1.25 % Pricing Level 2 Greater than 35% but less than or equal to 40% 2.75 % 1.50 % Pricing Level 3 Greater than 40% but less than or equal to 45% 3.00 % 1.75 % Pricing Level 4 Greater than 45% but less than or equal to 55% 3.25 % 2.00 % Pricing Level Ratio LIBOR Rate Loans Base Rate Loans Pricing Level 5 Greater than 55% 3.50 % 2.25 % The initial Applicable Margin shall be at Pricing Level 4.
