3.7Illegality of Funding.

Notwithstandinganyotherprovisionhereof,ifanyLendershallreasonablydetermine that any law, regulation, treaty or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Loans whose interest rates are based upon SOFR or Term SOFR, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof, and (a) the commitment of such Lender to make such Term SOFR Advances or to Convert ABR Advances to TermSOFRAdvancesshallforthwithbesuspended,(b)suchLendershallfunditsportionofeachrequested Term SOFR Advance as an ABR Advance, (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as such Term SOFR Advances, if any, shall be Converted automatically to an ABR Advance on the last day of the then-current Interest Period applicable thereto or at such earlier time as may be required and (d) if such notice asserts theillegalityofsuchLendermakingormaintainingABRAdvancestheinterestrateon which is determined by reference to One Month SOFR Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Advances of such Lender shall, if necessarytoavoidsuchillegality,bedetermined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the One Month SOFR Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate. If the commitment of any Lender with respect to Term SOFR Advances is suspended pursuant to this Section 3.7and such Lender shall have obtained actual knowledge that it is once again legal for such Lender to make or maintain Term SOFR Advances, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof and, upon delivery of such notice to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, such Lender’s commitment to make or maintain Term SOFR Advances shall be reinstated. If the commitment of any Lender with respect to TermSOFRAdvancesissuspendedpursuanttothisSection 3.7, such suspension shall not otherwise affect such Lender’s Commitment.

3.8Option to Fund; Substituted Interest Rate.

(a)Each Lender has indicated that, if the Borrower requests a Term SOFR Advance or a Competitive Bid Loan, such Lender may wish to purchase one or more deposits in order to fund or maintain its funding of its Commitment Percentage of such Term SOFR Advance or Competitive Bid Loan during the Interest Period with respect thereto; it being understood that the provisions of this Agreement relating to such funding are included only for the purpose of determining the rate of interest to be paid in respect of such Term SOFR Advance or Competitive BidLoanandanyamountsowingunderSection 3.5andSection 3.6. Each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of each Term SOFR Advance and Competitive Bid Loan in any manner it sees fit, but all such determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained its Commitment Percentage of each Term SOFR AdvanceorCompetitiveBidLoan,asthecasemaybe,duringtheapplicableInterestPeriodthrough the purchase of deposits in an amount equal to the amount of its Commitment Percentage of such Term SOFR Advance or Competitive Bid Loan, as the case may be, and having a maturity correspondingtosuchInterestPeriod. EachLender may fund its Advances from or for the account of any branch or office of such Lender as such Lender may choose from time to time, subject to Section 3.10.

(b)Ifinconnectionwithanyrequestfora Term SOFR Advance or a Conversion to or continuation thereof, as applicable, (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 3.8(c), and the circumstances under clause (i) of Section 3.8(c)or the ScheduledUnavailabilityDatehasoccurredor(B)adequateandreasonablemeansdonototherwise existfordetermining(1)TermSOFRforany requested Term SOFR Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Advance or (2) the One Month SOFR Rate in connection with an existing orproposedABRAdvanceor(ii)theAdministrativeAgentortheRequired Lendersdetermine that for any reason that (A) Term SOFR for any requested Term SOFR Interest Period with respect to

43


a proposed Term SOFR Advance or (B) the One Month SOFR Rate with respect to a proposed ABR Advance, in any case, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Advances or to Convert ABR Advances to Term SOFR Advances shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Advances or Term SOFR Interest Periods) and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the One Month SOFR Rate componentoftheAlternateBaseRate,theutilization of the One Month SOFR Rate in determining theAlternateBaseRateshall be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent (or, in the caseofadeterminationbytheRequiredLendersdescribedinclause(ii) of this Section 3.8(b), until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, Conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Advances (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Advances or Term SOFR Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have Converted such request into a request for a borrowing of ABR Advances in the amount specified therein and (ii) anyoutstandingTermSOFRAdvancesshallbedeemedtohave been Converted to ABR Advances immediately at the end of their respective applicable Term SOFR Interest Period.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or the Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(1)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining one-month, three-month and six-month interest periods of Term SOFR, including, without limitation, because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(2)CME or any successor administrator of the Term SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent or such administrator with respect to its publication of Term SOFR, in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which one-month, three-monthandsix-monthinterestperiodsofTermSOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall or will no longer be made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interestrateofDollar-denominatedU.S. syndicated loans, or shall or will otherwise cease; provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactorytotheAdministrativeAgent,thatwillcontinueto provide such interest periods of Term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one-month, three-month andsix-monthinterestperiodsofTermSOFRortheTermSOFRScreenRatearenolonger available permanently or indefinitely, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”);

then,onadateandtime determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (any such date, the “Term SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of a Term SOFR Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely withrespecttoclause (2) above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Successor Rate”).

44


If the Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if the Administrative Agent determines that DailySimple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date, or (ii) if the eventsorcircumstancesofthetypedescribedinSection 3.8(c)(1)or(2)have occurred with respect tothe Successor Rate then in effect, then in each case, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then-current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 3.8at the end of any Term SOFR Interest Period, relevant interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention forsimilarDollar-denominatedcreditfacilitiessyndicatedandagentedintheUnitedStatesforsuch alternativebenchmark. and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmarkgivingdueconsiderationtoanyevolvingorthenexistingconventionforsimilar Dollar-denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such benchmark, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and maybeperiodicallyupdated.Forthe avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments, shall constitute a “Successor Rate”. Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Domestic Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.

Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower).

Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

InconnectionwiththeimplementationofaSuccessorRate,the Administrative Agent will have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes in the discretion of the Administrative Agent and in consultation with the Borrower will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the AdministrativeAgentshallposteachsuchamendmentimplementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders promptly after such amendment becomes effective.
