(b) If no Benchmark Successor Rate has been determined and either (x) the circumstances set out in paragraph (a) of the definition of "Screen Rate Replacement Event" in Section 1.1 exist or (y) the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, the Facility Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (i) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain the Loan shall be suspended and (ii) the Screen Rate shall no longer be utilized in determining the LIBO Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending Loan Request.
(c) Until such time as a Benchmark Successor Rate and Benchmark Successor Rate Conforming Changes have been determined and agreed and without prejudice to the obligation of the parties to enter into negotiations with a view to determining or agreeing a Benchmark Successor Rate pursuant to paragraph (a) above, for any Interest Period starting after the Screen Rate Replacement Event, the

LIBO Rate shall be replaced by the weighted average of the rates notified to the Facility Agent by each Lender five (5) Business Days prior to the first day of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost the relevant Lender would have of funding an amount equal to its participation in the Loan during the relevant Interest Period from whatever source it may reasonably select. If such amount is less than zero, it shall be deemed to be zero.
(d) Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of Benchmark Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such Benchmark Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.
(e) Section 3.3.6 shall not apply following the occurrence of a Screen Rate Replacement Event.
(f) Where paragraph (a) above applies, the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand, reimburse the Facility Agent for the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred by the Facility Agent in responding to, evaluating, negotiating or complying with the requirements set out in that paragraph.";
