The Reference Rate is the arithmetic mean (rounded up to the fourth decimal place) of the fixed rates per annum for DM interest rate swaps (fixed rate as against 6 months LIBOR) in an amount equal to the relevant advance for the Interest Period requested by AMD Saxonia, as corresponds to the rate quoted by the Reference Banks at 11.00 a.m. (London time) as the offered rate on the second Banking Day prior to the relevant Interest Period, as determined by the Paying Agent. The LIBOR-Rate is the DM interest rate per annum in the London Interbank Market which in accordance with "Telerate Screen" page 3750 (or such other page as may be substituted for page 3750 on that system for the purpose of displaying offered rates for DM deposits) is quoted as the offered rate at 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the second Banking Day prior to the relevant Interest Period for such Interest Period. To the extent that no interest rate is displayed on the relevant "Telerate Screen" page at the relevant time on any day for the determination of the interest rate, the rate determined by the Paying Agent shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded to the fourth decimal place) quoted to the Paying Agent by the Reference Banks as the DM interest rate per annum at which the Reference Banks offer to prime banks in the London Interbank Market on the relevant date at 11.00 a.m. London time for deposits for the relevant period and in an amount comparable to the relevant advance. If any Reference Bank does not notify such a rate to the Paying Agent for any relevant period, the LIBOR-Rate and/or the Reference Rate as applicable shall be determined on the basis of the rates notified by the other Reference Banks.
