From the Interest Commencement Date to but excluding May 7th 2013 the Interest Rate will be calculated according to the following formula:
7.00% p.a. times (N1/D)
From May 7th 2013 to but excluding the Maturity Date, the Interest Rate will be calculated according to the following formula:
8.00% p.a. times (N2/D)
Where:
N1” is the number of calendar days (including non Business Days) in each Interest Period from and including the Interest Commencement Date to but excluding May 7th 2013 for which 6-Month LIBOR is greater than or equal to 0.00% and less than or equal to 6.00% p.a., subject to the Rate Cut-Off.
N2” is the number of calendar days (including non Business Days) in each Interest Period from May 7th 2013 to but excluding the Maturity Date for which 6-Month LIBOR is greater than or equal to 0.00% and less than or equal to 7.00% p.a., subject to the Rate Cut-Off.
D” is the total number of calendar days (including non Business Days) in each Interest Period.
and:
“Interest Period” is the period from and including each Interest Payment Date (or the Interest Commencement Date, in the case of the first Interest Period) to but excluding the immediately following Interest Payment Date and thereafter any period from and including an Interest Payment Date to but

 


 

excluding the next following Interest Payment Date (or the Maturity Date, in the case of the final Interest Period).
“6-Month LIBOR” is, for any Interest Reset Date, the rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period of six months that appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. London time on such day (subject to the Rate Cut-Off). If 6-Month LIBOR cannot be determined on an Interest Reset Date, the Calculation Agent will determine 6-Month LIBOR based on quotations from four major banks in the London interbank market, as described in the Prospectus, for deposits in U.S. dollars for a period of six months.
“Rate Cut-Off” means that (a) for each day in a Interest Period that is a Saturday, Sunday or a day which is not a London Business Day, 6-Month LIBOR will be 6-Month LIBOR in effect on the immediately preceding London Business Day, and (b) 6-Month LIBOR for each calendar day falling after the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date (the “Rate Cut-Off Date”) up to but excluding the end of the same Interest Period will be 6-Month LIBOR in effect on the Rate Cut-Off Date.
“London Business Day” is any day except for Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business in London.
