“LIBOR Rate” means, on any Rate Determination Date, (i) the one-month LIBOR rate for deposits in United States dollars, which appears on Reuters display page LIBOR01 (“Page LIBOR01”) (or such other page as may replace that page on that service, or such other service as may be selected by the LIBOR Dealer or its successors that are LIBOR Dealers) as of 11:00 a.m. London, England time, on the day that is the London Business Day preceding the Rate Determination Date (the “LIBOR Determination Date”), or (ii) if such rate does not appear on Page LIBOR01 or such other page as may replace such Page LIBOR01, (A) the LIBOR Dealer shall determine the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations of the Reference Banks to leading banks in the London interbank market for deposits in U.S. dollars for the designated Rate Period in an amount determined by such LIBOR Dealer by reference to requests for quotations as of approximately 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) on such date made by such LIBOR Dealer to the Reference Banks, (B) if at least two of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, the LIBOR Rate shall equal such arithmetic mean of such quotations, (C) if only one or none of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, the LIBOR Rate shall be deemed to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading banks in The City of New York, New York selected by the LIBOR Dealer (after obtaining the Trust’s approval) are quoting on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for deposits in United States dollars for the designated Rate Period in an amount determined by the LIBOR Dealer (after obtaining the Trust’s approval) that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time by reference to the principal London, England offices of leading banks in the London interbank market; provided, however, that if one of the LIBOR Dealers does not quote a rate required to determine the LIBOR Rate, the LIBOR Rate will be determined on the basis of the quotation or quotations furnished by any Substitute LIBOR Dealer or Substitute LIBOR Dealers selected by the Trust to provide such rate or rates not being supplied by the LIBOR Dealer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (A) the one month LIBOR Rate determined as set forth above would otherwise be less than zero (0), the one-month LIBOR Rate for such Rate Determination Date will be deemed to be zero (0), and (B) the one-month LIBOR Rate no longer appears or is not otherwise calculable as provided above (the “LIBOR Unavailability Date”), then the one-month LIBOR Rate shall mean (i) the “Federal Funds Rate,” which appears on Bloomberg display page FEDL01 (“Page FEDL01”) (or such other page as may replace that page on that service, or such other service as may be selected by the LIBOR Dealer or its successors that are LIBOR Dealers) as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time plus the positive difference, if any, between the average one-month LIBOR Rate and the average Federal Funds Rate for the one year period prior to the LIBOR Unavailability Date, or (ii) if such rate does not appear on Page FEDL01 or such other page as may replace such Page FEDL01 (the date on which such rate no longer appears on such page, the “Fed Funds Unavailability Date”), the Board of Trustees shall in good faith select a reasonably comparable index, which such other index shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Total Holders (the “Replacement”). If applicable, the one-month LIBOR Rate from the latter of (i) the LIBOR Unavailability Date and (ii) the Fed Funds Unavailability Date to the date the Replacement becomes effective with the prior written consent of the Total Holders as provided above, shall be equal to the one-month LIBOR Rate as in effect immediately prior to the latter of (i) the LIBOR Unavailability Date and (ii) the Fed Funds Unavailability Date.
