EARLY REPAYMENT

In the case of a fixed rate loan, in the event of early repayment of the Loan in whole or in part for any reason, or conversion to a variable interest rate, or other fixed rate within the initial fixed rate period or any further or subsequent fixed rate period, the Borrower shall pay a sum to be calculated in accordance with the following formula (Amount x (R-R1) x Time) divided by 36500 and for the purposes of this formula, the variables are defined as follows: 'Amount' means the average balance of the amount repaid early or converted from the date of repayment or conversion to the end of the fixed rate term, allowing for scheduled repayments; in the case of an endowment loan, this will equal the full amount of the early repayment or conversion. 'R' means the cost of funds for the Bank for the fixed rate period as incorporated in the existing interest rate applying to the loan. 'R1' means the interest rate available to the Bank for funds placed in the money market on the date of early repayment or conversion for the remainder of the relevant fixed rate period. "Time" means the number of days from the date of early repayment or conversion to the end of the relevant fixed rate period.
