Section 2.05[Determination
of LIBOR.

 

(a)       On
each LIBOR Determination Date in respect of an Interest Period, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the
rate per annum displayed in the Bloomberg Financial Markets system as the composite offered rate for London interbank deposits
for a period of the Designated Maturity, as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that date. If that rate does not appear on that display
page, LIBOR for that Interest Period will be the rate per annum for a period of the Designated Maturity shown on page “LIBOR01”
of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service or such other page as may replace the LIBOR01 page on that service for the purpose of
displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date; provided
that if at least two rates appear on that page, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the displayed rates and if fewer than two
rates are displayed, or if no rate is relevant, the rate for that Interest Period shall be determined on the basis of the rates
at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that
day to prime banks in the London interbank market for the period of the Designated Maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall request
the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two (2) such quotations
are provided, the rate for that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations
are provided as requested, the rate for that Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in
New York City, selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States
dollars to leading European banks for a period of the Designated Maturity. If LIBOR with respect to a LIBOR Determination Date
cannot be determined pursuant to the foregoing, LIBOR with respect to such LIBOR Determination Date will be LIBOR with respect
to the immediately prior LIBOR Determination Date.

 

(b)       On
each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Issuer by facsimile, email or other electronic transmission,
notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. LIBOR used to calculate the Note Interest Rate for the then current and
the immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at
[_____] or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose.]

Section 2.05Determination
of LIBOR.

 

(a)       [On
each LIBOR Determination Date in respect of an Interest Period, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the
rate per annum displayed in the Bloomberg Financial Markets system as the composite offered rate for London interbank deposits
for a period of the Designated Maturity, as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that date. If that rate does not appear on that display
page, LIBOR for that Interest Period will be the rate per annum for a period of the Designated Maturity shown on page “LIBOR01”
of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service or such other page as may replace the LIBOR01 page on that service for the purpose of
displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date; provided
that if at least two rates appear on that page, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the displayed rates and if fewer than two
rates are displayed, or if no rate is relevant, the rate for that Interest Period shall be determined on the basis of the rates
at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that
day to prime banks in the London interbank market for the period of the Designated Maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall request
the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two (2) such quotations
are provided, the rate for that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations
are provided as requested, the rate for that Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in
New York City, selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States
dollars to leading European banks for a period of the Designated Maturity. If LIBOR with respect to a LIBOR Determination Date
cannot be determined pursuant to the foregoing, LIBOR with respect to such LIBOR Determination Date will be LIBOR with respect
to the immediately prior LIBOR Determination Date.

 

(b)       On
each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Issuer by facsimile, email or other electronic transmission,
notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. LIBOR used to calculate the Note Interest Rate for the then current and
the immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at
[_____] or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose.]
