Selection of Rate Tranches Clause Samples

The Selection of Rate Tranches clause defines how different interest rate segments, or tranches, are chosen within a financial agreement. Typically, this clause outlines the process by which parties select from available rate options, such as fixed or floating rates, and may specify the timing, criteria, or authority for making these selections. By establishing clear procedures for rate tranche selection, the clause ensures transparency and predictability in how interest rates are applied, thereby reducing disputes and aligning expectations between the parties.
Selection of Rate Tranches. Subject to the requirements set forth in this Article II, each Purchaser Agent shall from time to time, only for purposes of computing Yield with respect to each Purchaser in its Purchaser Group, account for the Asset Interest in terms of one or more Rate Tranches, and the applicable Yield Rate may be different for each Rate Tranche. Each Purchaser’s Investment shall be allocated to each Rate Tranche by the related Purchaser Agent to reflect the funding sources for each portion of the Asset Interest, so that: (a) there will be one or more Rate Tranches, selected by each Purchaser Agent, reflecting the portion, if any, of the Asset Interest funded or maintained by its related Committed Purchaser other than through the issuance of Commercial Paper Notes (including by outstanding Liquidity Advances or by funding under an Enhancement Agreement); and (b) there will be a Rate Tranche, selected by each Purchaser Agent, equal to the excess of aggregate Investment of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group over the aggregate amounts allocated at such time pursuant to clause (a) above, which Rate Tranche shall reflect the portion of the Asset Interest funded or maintained by Commercial Paper Notes. Each Purchaser Agent may, in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time, declare any Yield Period applicable to any Investment of a Purchaser in its Purchaser Group to be terminated and allocate the portion of such Purchaser’s Investment allocated to such Yield Period to one or more other Yield Periods and Yield Rates as such Purchaser Agent shall select.

Each Purchaser’s Investment in respect of each Receivable Pool shall be allocated to each Rate Tranche by the related Purchaser Agent to reflect the funding sources for each portion of the Asset Portfolio relating thereto, so that: (a) there will be one or more Rate Tranches in respect of each Receivable Pool, selected by each Purchaser Agent, reflecting the portion, if any, of the aggregate Investment of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group in respect of each Receivable Pool funded or maintained by such Purchasers other than through the issuance of Commercial Paper Notes (including by outstanding Liquidity Advances or by funding under an Enhancement Agreement); and (b) there will be a Rate Tranche in respect of each Receivable Pool, selected by each Purchaser Agent, equal to the excess of the aggregate Investment of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group in respect of such Receivable Pool over the aggregate amounts allocated at such time pursuant to clause (a) above, which Rate Tranche shall reflect the portion of such aggregate Investment in respect of such Receivable Pool funded or maintained by such Purchasers through the issuance of Commercial Paper Notes. Each Purchaser Agent may in respect of a Receivable Pool, in its sole discretion, declare any Yield Period applicable to any Investment of a Purchaser in its Purchaser Group in respect of such Receivable Pool to be terminated and allocate the portion of such Purchaser’s Investment allocated to such Yield Period to one or more other Yield Periods and Yield Rates as such Purchaser Agent shall select.

  • Interest Rate Options The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that (i) there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and (ii) if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.

  • Selection of Interest Rate Options At any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, it may be continued by Borrower at the end of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto so that all or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate or to LIBOR for a new Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate, Borrower may convert all or a portion thereof so that it bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR for a Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At such time as Borrower requests an advance hereunder or wishes to select a LIBOR option for all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance hereof, and at the end of each Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall give Bank notice specifying: (i) the interest rate option selected by Borrower; (ii) the principal amount subject thereto; and (iii) for each LIBOR selection, the length of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. Any such notice may be given by telephone (or such other electronic method as Bank may permit) so long as, with respect to each LIBOR selection, (A) if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three (3) Business Days after such notice is given, and (B) such notice is given to Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. on the first day of the Fixed Rate Term, or at a later time during any Business Day if Bank, at it’s sole option but without obligation to do so, accepts Borrower’s notice and quotes a fixed rate to Borrower. If Borrower does not immediately accept a fixed rate when quoted by Bank, the quoted rate shall expire and any subsequent LIBOR request from Borrower shall be subject to a redetermination by Bank of the applicable fixed rate. If no specific designation of interest is made at the time any advance is requested hereunder or at the end of any Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Prime Rate interest selection for such advance or the principal amount to which such Fixed Rate Term applied.

  • Variable Rate Transactions From the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Debentures, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

  • Duration of normal Interest Periods Subject to Clauses 5.3 and 5.4, each Interest Period shall be: (a) 3, 6 or 12 months as notified by the Borrower to the Lender not later than 11.00 a.m. (London time) 3 Business Days before the commencement of the Interest Period; or (b) 3 months, if the Borrower fails to notify the Lender by the time specified in paragraph (a) above; or (c) such other period as the Lender may agree with the Borrower.
