Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate permissible for corporate borrowers under applicable law for loans of the type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited in prior months by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon Payment in Full of the Obligations under this Agreement, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this [Section 2.7], have been paid or accrued if the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay Agent, for the account of Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between # the lesser of # the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or # the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect and # the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. In the event that a court determines that Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to Borrowers such excess.

Maximum Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest under this Agreement charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law and shall at the Administrative Agent’s option # promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by in excess of the maximum lawful rate or # apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

3.10Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“Maximum Rate”). If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, # characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; # exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and # amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Usury Recapture. In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time (calculated after giving effect to all items charged which constitute “interest” under applicable Legal Requirements, including fees and margin amounts, if applicable) is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Loans equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Loans if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Loans, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Loans is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of [[Organization B:Organization]] an amount equal to the difference between # the lesser of # the amount of interest which would have been charged on its Loans if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and # the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Loans if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and # the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Loans. In the event [[Organization B:Organization]] ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, # characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, # exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and # amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest under this Agreement charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any applicable law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that [[Organization B:Organization]] have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by applicable law and [[Organization B:Organization]] shall at the Administrative Agent’s option # promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by [[Organization B:Organization]] in excess of the maximum lawful rate or # apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under applicable law.
