If for any reason, the relevant Funding Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Base CD Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate or any of them for any reason, including the inability or failure of the relevant Funding Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms of the definitions thereof, the ABR shall be determined without regard to clause (b), (c) and/or (d), (as applicable), of the immediately preceding sentence, as appropriate, until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Base CD Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Base CD Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, respectively.
