Tariff 2.95.1 Any applicable Federal or state tariff of a Party, as amended from time- to-time;
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. The Applicable Margin shall not be adjusted based upon such ratio, if at all, until the first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following the delivery by Borrower to the Agent of the Compliance Certificate after the end of a calendar quarter. In the event that Borrower shall fail to deliver to the Agent a quarterly Compliance Certificate on or before the date required by §7.4(c), then without limiting any other rights of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, the Applicable Margin for Loans shall be at Pricing Level 5 until such failure is cured within any applicable cure period, or waived in writing by the Required Lenders, in which event the Applicable Margin shall adjust, if necessary, on the first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following receipt of such Compliance Certificate. In the event that the Agent and the Borrower determine that any financial statements previously delivered were incorrect or inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall as soon as practicable deliver to the Agent the corrected financial statements for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if the Pricing Level for such higher Applicable Margin were applicable for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days of demand thereof by the Agent pay to the Agent the accrued additional amount owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Agent in accordance with this Agreement.
Interest and Applicable Margins (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders with respect to the various Loans made by each Lender, in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, at the following rates: (i) with respect to the Revolving Loans which are designated as Index Rate Loans (and for all other Obligations not otherwise set forth below), the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum or, with respect to Revolving Loans which are designated as LIBOR Loans, at the election of Borrower, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin per annum; and (ii) with respect to such portion of the Term Loans designated as an Index Rate Loan, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan Index Margin per annum or, with respect to such portion of the Term Loans designated as a LIBOR Loan, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin per annum. The Applicable Margins shall be as follows: Applicable Revolver Index Margin 2.75 % Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin 3.75 % Applicable Term Loan Index Margin 2.75 % Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin 3.75 % 1 Borrower to supply account information. provided; however, the Applicable Margins, with respect to the Term Loan, shall be adjusted (up or down) prospectively on a quarterly basis as determined by Holdings’ and its Subsidiaries’ consolidated financial performance. Adjustments in Applicable Margins will be determined by reference to the following grids: Level of Applicable Margin Leverage Ratio Applicable Term Loan Index Margin Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin Level I ³ 4.00 to 1.00 3.25 % 4.25 % Level II ³ 2.50 to 1.00, and < 4.00 to 1.00 2.75 % 3.75 % Level III < 2.50 to 1.00 2.25 % 3.25 % All adjustments in the Applicable Margins shall be implemented quarterly on a prospective basis, five (5) Business Days after the date of delivery to Lenders of the quarterly unaudited Financial Statements evidencing the need for an adjustment. Concurrently with the delivery of those Financial Statements, Borrower shall deliver to Agent and Lenders a certificate, signed by its chief financial officer, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the continuance of, or any change in, the Applicable Margins. If any Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any reduction in the Applicable Margins is to be implemented, that reduction shall be deferred until the first day of the first calendar month following the date on which all Defaults or Events of Default are waived or cured.
Applicable Margins The ABR Applicable Margin and the LIBOR Applicable Margin to be used in calculating the interest rate applicable to different Types of Advances shall vary from time to time in accordance with the long-term unsecured debt ratings from Xxxxx’x, and Fitch of the General Partner and the Borrower. In the event the General Partner and the Borrower have different ratings, the rating of the higher rated entity shall be used. In the event the rating agencies are split on the rating for the higher rated entity, the lower rating for such entity shall be deemed to be the applicable rating (e.g., if the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating is Baa1, and its Fitch’s rating is BBB, then the Applicable Margins shall be computed based on the Fitch rating), and the Applicable Margins shall be adjusted effective on the next Business Day following any change in the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating, and/or Fitch’s debt rating, as the case may be. The applicable debt ratings and the Applicable Margins are set forth in the table attached as Exhibit A. In the event that Fitch or Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the General Partner or the Borrower, a mutually agreeable substitute rating agency (or two mutually agreeable substitute agencies if both existing rating agencies discontinue such ratings) shall be selected by the Required Lenders and the Borrower. If the Required Lenders and the Borrower cannot agree on a substitute rating agency or substitute rating agencies within thirty (30) days after such discontinuance, or if Fitch and Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the Borrower, or the General Partner, the Applicable Margin to be used for the calculation of interest on Advances hereunder shall be the highest Applicable Margin for each Type. If a rating agency downgrade or discontinuance results in an increase in the ABR Applicable Margin, the LIBOR Applicable Margin, or Facility Fee Rate and if such downgrade or discontinuance is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, at the Borrower’s request, the Borrower shall receive a credit against interest next due the Lenders equal to interest accrued from time to time during such period of downgrade or discontinuance and actually paid by the Borrower on the Advances at the differential between such Applicable Margins, and the differential of the Facility Fee paid during such period of downgrade. If a rating agency upgrade results in a decrease in the ABR Applicable Margin, LIBOR Applicable Margin or Facility Fee Rate and if such upgrade is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower shall be required to pay an amount to the Lenders equal to the interest differential on the Advances and the differential on the Facility Fees during such period of upgrade.
Rate Increases In the event that this Agreement is renewed pursuant to Section 3.1.2, the rate set forth in Exhibit “C” may be adjusted each year at the time of renewal as set forth in Exhibit “C.”
Base Rate The higher of (a) the annual rate of interest announced from time to time by BKB at its head office in Boston, Massachusetts, as its "base rate" and (b) one-half of one percent (1/2%) above the Federal Funds Effective Rate. For the purposes of this definition, "Federal Funds Effective Rate" shall mean for any day, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers, as published for such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, for the next preceding Business Day) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if such rate is not so published for any day that is a Business Day, the average of the quotations for such day on such transactions received by the Agent from three funds brokers of recognized standing selected by the Agent.
