LIBOR; or (3) CoBank&#8217;s cost to fund balances bearing interest at the LIBOR
Option (as determined by CoBank in its sole discretion) increases beyond any
corresponding increase in LIBOR or decreases less than any corresponding
decrease in LIBOR. In addition, if as a result of a change in Law or otherwise,
CoBank is required to allocate additional capital to, or otherwise bear increase
