Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to the matters covered:
Suspension of LIBOR Loans Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:
Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsections (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.5. shall apply).
Eurodollar Rate Loans After Default After the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, (i) Company may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Company with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Company.
Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.
Borrowing Agency Provisions (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Agent to pay over or credit all loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent.
Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans Provided that no Default (other than a Default arising from any of the events specified in Section 10.1(e), (f) and (n) hereof) or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower shall have the option to (a) convert at any time all or any portion of its outstanding Base Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans or (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, (i) convert all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into Base Rate Loans or (c) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, continue the relevant LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C (a "Notice of Conversion/ Continuation") not later than 12:00 noon (Charlotte time) three (3) Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued LIBOR Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.
Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates (a) Notice to the Administrative Agent. RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or any other Borrower, shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than: (i) 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) at least three Business Days before the date on which RC2 Brands on behalf of the applicable Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (ii) at least three Business Days before the date on which RC2 Brands, on behalf of the Borrowers, requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Term Loans which shall be the Fixed Rate Loan, and (iii) 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date RC2 Brands on behalf of the applicable Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, RC2 Brands, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirement contained in Section 1.5 for each outstanding Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower, may (subject to the notice requirement set forth herein) continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans, (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower, may (subject to the notice requirement set forth herein) convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower or (iii) if such Borrowing is of the Fixed Rate Loan, on the Fixed Rate Loan End Date, RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower, may (subject to the notice requirement set forth herein) convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower. RC2 Brands, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower, shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by telephone or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notices of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or the Fixed Rate Loan into Base Rate Loans or of Base Rate Loans or the Fixed Rate Loan into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) at least three Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) there shall be no Fixed Rate Loans available hereunder other than the $40,000,000 Borrowing of Term Loans advanced on the Closing Date, (ii) the Borrowers shall have no right to convert all of any portion of such Fixed Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan or Base Rate Loan prior to the Fixed Rate Loan End Date and (iii) the Floating Rate Payor may, subject to Sections 9.2 and 9.3 hereof, convert all or any portion of the Fixed Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan after an Event of Default. The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative of RC2 Brands without the necessity of independent investigation and, in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
