40 <br />Bond Counsel to the effect that the establishment of such Fixed Rate Periods or <br />such change (as the case may be) is permitted by this Indenture and will not <br />adversely affect the excludability from gross income, for federal income tax <br />purposes, of interest paid on the Bonds, and (3) if a Credit Facility is in <br />effect and the proposed Conversion Date is not also a Termination Date, written <br />evidence from each of the Rating Agencies that such conversion or establishment <br />of such Fixed Rate Period will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its <br />ratings on the Bonds. The Trustee shall deliver copies of the items required by <br />this paragraph upon receipt to the Registrar and Paying Agent, the Remarketing <br />Agent, the Credit Facility Provider and each of the Rating Agencies. Each Fixed <br />Rate Period established when the Bonds bear interest at the Variable Rate shall <br />commence on the first Business Day of a month and otherwise shall commence on the <br />date following the last day of a Fixed Rate Period. Each Long Fixed Rate Period <br />shall end on the last calendar day of a month, unless the Bonds will bear <br />interest at a Variable Rate after such Long Fixed Rate Period or such Long Fixed <br />Rate Period will be followed by a Short Fixed Rate Period in which event such <br />Long Fixed Rate Period shall end on the day immediately preceding the first <br />Business Day of a month. All Short Fixed Rate Periods shall end on the day <br />immediately preceding the first Business Day of a month. Fixed Rate Periods <br />established by the Borrower in accordance with this paragraph may be of the same <br />or different lengths. In connection with the establishment of one or more Fixed <br />Rate Periods, at the written request of the Borrower and NHC, the Registrar and <br />Paying Agent shall select particular Bonds to be redeemed from Sinking Fund <br />Installments becoming due during any of such Fixed Rate Periods, which selection <br />shall be made at least 35 days before the Fixed Rate Date on which the first such <br />Fixed Rate Period begins. At least 35 days before each Conversion Date, the <br />Registrar and Paying Agent shall mail a Mandatory Tender Notice to each holder of <br />Bonds in accordance with Section 3.04 hereof. <br />Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, <br />in the event that not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any proposed <br />Conversion Date the Remarketing Agent delivers to the Trustee a certificate to <br />the effect that all of the Bonds have not been successfully remarketed on such <br />Conversion Date, the conversion of the interest rate borne by the Bonds shall <br />automatically be rescinded and the Bonds will bear interest from and after such <br />date at the Variable Rate until converted to a Fixed Rate as provided in this <br />paragraph; provided, however, that if the Bonds bore interest at a Fixed Rate <br />prior to such proposed Conveision Date, a new Fixed Rate Period shall be <br />established for the Bonds in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section as if <br />the borrower had not elected to change the interest rate on the Bonds or to <br />establish a new Fixed Rate Period, and the Computation Date for such Fixed Rate <br />Period shall be the first day of such Fixed Race Period (or, if not a Business <br />Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) unless there shall be delivered to <br />the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the automatic <br />conversion of the interest rate borne by the Bonds to the Variable Rate in <br />accordance with this paragraph will not adversely affect the excludability from <br />gross income, for federal incomes -tax purposes, on interest paid on the Bonds; and <br />provided further that such proposed Conversion Date shall be a Mandatory Tender <br />Date notwithstanding such automatic rescission. The Trustee shall immediately <br />give notice of any such rescission to the Borrower, NHC, the Registrar and Paying <br />Agent, the Credit Facility Provider and each of the Rating Agencies. Upon <br />receipt of such notice, the Registrar and Paying Agent shall immediately give <br />15 <br />
