RATE CONVERSION AND RATE CONTINUATION Sample Clauses

The "Rate Conversion and Rate Continuation" clause defines how interest rates or pricing terms on a financial agreement may be changed or maintained over time. Typically, this clause outlines the procedures for switching from one benchmark rate to another, such as when a reference rate becomes unavailable, or for extending the current rate beyond its original term. For example, it may specify how a loan's interest rate transitions from a fixed to a floating rate, or how a fallback rate is determined if the original rate is discontinued. The core function of this clause is to ensure continuity and predictability in financial obligations, minimizing disruption and uncertainty if market conditions or reference rates change.

If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted into an ABR Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Protective Advances, which shall at all times be ABR Borrowings.

  • Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances Floating Rate Advances shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurodollar Advances pursuant to this Section 2.9 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.2 or 2.7. Each Eurodollar Advance shall continue as a Eurodollar Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurodollar Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurodollar Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.2 or 2.7 or (y) the Company shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurodollar Advance continue as a Eurodollar Advance for the same or another Interest Period.

Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. (c) Any Conversion/Continuation Notice shall be executed by an Authorized Officer in a writing delivered to Administrative Agent.

In the event of a discrepancy between the telephone notice and the written Conversion/Continuation Notice, the written Conversion/Continuation Notice shall govern.
