9.8765445% (or 0.098765445) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or 0.0987655)), and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from that calculation on the floating rate notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).
Effect of Benchmark Transition Event
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the administrator determines prior to the relevant reference time that a benchmark transition event and its related benchmark replacement date have occurred prior to the determination of the then-current benchmark, the unadjusted benchmark replacement determined by the administrator will replace the then-current benchmark for all purposes relating to the floating rate notes in respect of such determination on such date and all such determinations on all subsequent dates (unless and until a subsequent benchmark transition event and its related benchmark replacement date occurs).
The administrator shall deliver written notice to each rating agency and to the paying agent and the indenture trustee on any SOFR determination date if, as of the applicable reference time, the administrator has determined with respect to the related interest period that there will be a change in 30-day average SOFR, or the terms related thereto since the immediately preceding SOFR determination date due to a determination by the administrator that a benchmark transition event and its related benchmark replacement date have occurred.
In connection with the implementation of a benchmark replacement, the administrator will have the right to make benchmark replacement conforming changes from time to time.
Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the administrator or any other person in connection with a benchmark transition event, a benchmark replacement conforming change or a benchmark replacement as described above, including, but not limited to, any determination with respect to administrative feasibility (whether due to technical, administrative or operational issues), a tenor, a rate or an adjustment or the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the administrator’s sole discretion, and will become effective without the consent of any other person (including any noteholder). The holders of the notes will not have any right to approve or disapprove of these changes or determinations and will be deemed to have waived and released any and all claims against any transaction party relating to any such changes or determinations. None of the issuing entity, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, the paying agent, the administrator, the sponsor, the depositor or the servicer will have any liability for any action or inaction taken or refrained from being taken by it or the administrator with respect to any benchmark, benchmark transition event, benchmark replacement date, benchmark replacement, unadjusted benchmark replacement, benchmark replacement adjustment, benchmark replacement conforming changes or any other matters related to or arising in connection with the foregoing. Each noteholder and each beneficial owner of notes, by its acceptance of a note or a beneficial interest in a note, will be deemed to waive and release any and all claims against the issuing entity, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, the paying agent, the administrator, the sponsor, the depositor and the servicer relating to any such determinations.
None of the indenture trustee, the paying agent or the owner trustee will be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of 30-day average SOFR (or any other benchmark), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or to determine whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what SOFR adjustment conforming changes or benchmark replacement conforming changes are appropriate in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, as to any spread adjustment thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the indenture trustee, the paying agent and the owner trustee will be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the administrator without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the administrator’s direction in connection therewith.
None of the indenture trustee, the paying agent or the owner trustee will be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in the transaction documents as a result of the unavailability of
