If the use of the credit line (amount) involves a foreign currency, the calculation of its individual and total credit lines (amounts) shall be converted based on the exchange rate set by your Bank at the time of use.

If the interest or delay interest that the Contracting Party should pay for the various debts involves different interest rates, the Contracting Party and the Guarantor agree that when your Bank exercises its rights on the promissory note issued by the Contracting Party and the Guarantor, your Bank may use the highest interest rate among the various debts as the agreed interest rate for the promissory note.

Also, if the Contracting Party and the Guarantor have other property deposited with your Bank, your Bank shall have the right to claim lien or offset.


The Contracting Party and the Guarantor understand and agree that the check deposit transaction agreement signed by the Contracting Party and the Guarantor with your Bank is for the right to be deemed fully due by your Bank according to the Contract when there is any breach of contract arising from any contract signed by the Contracting Party and the Guarantor with your Bank.

After the change of the original guarantor, whether it is one or several persons, the guarantee responsibility of the original guarantor shall be agreed by your Bank for change after the new guarantor signs the guarantee contract. However, if the new guarantor does not assume guarantee responsibility for the main debt that has occurred before the change, then the guarantee responsibility of the original guarantor that has been replaced shall be released only when the main debt that has occurred before the change is fully paid off and the change procedures are completed.


Article 15 (Supervision, Audit, Inspection and Provision of Information)


The Contracting Party and the Guarantor are willing to accept your Bank’s supervision over the use purpose of the credit facility, audit on the business finance, and your Bank’s inspection on the relevant accounting statements (including consolidated financial statements), receipts, and documents. However, your Bank has no obligation to supervise, audit, or inspect them. Your Bank may also require the Contracting Party and the Guarantor to complete and report the aforementioned credit information on time, or provide an independent and impartial accountant to sign or review the financial statements. If your Bank has doubts about the contents of the financial statements and the Contracting Party or the Guarantor cannot provide a reasonable explanation, it be willing to ask the accountant who signed or reviewed the financial statements to provide a work draft at your Bank’s request. The Contracting Party or the Guarantor will also be willing to urge the accountant to send a copy of the aforementioned signed or reviewed financial statements to the Joint Credit Information Center for filing. When your Bank believes that the financial structure of the Contracting Party or the Guarantor should be improved, the Contracting Party or the Guarantor will agree to take actions to improve the financial structure. Due to business needs or the need to secure creditor’s rights, your Bank may investigate or maintain the collateral provided by the Contracting Party or the collateral provider.


Article 16 (Data Collection, Processing and Utilization)

If there is a balance, your Bank or the bill of exchange and / or document holder may also use it to settle the Contracting Party’s other debts or arrears to your Bank (regardless of whether they are guaranteed). In the event of a loss of the insured goods, your Bank shall still be able to obtain compensation in accordance with the insurance policy. After deducting the procedural fees, the proceeds shall be settled in the same manner for the aforementioned disposal of goods for sale.


Article 7 If the net proceeds from the sale of goods are insufficient to pay the amount, interest and expenses stated in the bill of exchange or invoice, the Contracting Party agrees that the relevant proof presented by your Bank or the bill of exchange and / or document holder shall be the proof for the loss from the sale of the goods. Once your Bank or the bill of exchange and / or document holder gives a notice (regardless of whether verbally or in writing) to the Contracting Party, the payment shall be made immediately in full. This act shall not affect your Bank’s right of recourse against the other debtors.


Article 8 Regardless of whether the goods are sold or resold, your Bank or the bill of exchange holder may accept the payment request from the payer or acceptor before the bill of exchange is due and submit the bill of lading and other shipping documents to the payer or acceptor after payment. If your Bank or the bill of exchange holder accepts an advance payment, the interest from the unmatured period may be deducted at the usual interest rate of the place of payment of the bill.


Article 9 If the bill of exchange is delivered after acceptance, your Bank may deliver the document to the acceptor after the acceptor has accepted the bill of exchange. In the case of a deferred payment, your Bank may also deliver the relevant document to the issuing bank or payer before payment is received. After it is due, if your Bank still has not received the payment or has only received part of the payment, the Contracting Party shall be responsible for all results. The Contracting Party shall repay the entire amount owed together with the increased remittance fees and procedural fees, and guarantee that your Bank will not suffer any damage.


Article 10 Both your Bank and the bill of exchange holder may accept the conditional acceptance of the payer. After the bill of exchange has been paid when it is due, the accompanying bill of exchange may be delivered to the payer or acceptor as a supplementary document for the guarantee.


Article 11 At any time before the bill of exchange is due, your Bank may deliver the goods to a third party in batches if deemed appropriate by your Bank or the bill of exchange acceptor or its representative. However, when all or part of the goods are delivered, a payment for the equivalent amount must be collected, and the equivalent amount should be a reasonable proportion to the price listed on the invoice or the amount contained in the guaranteed bill.


Article 12 After the bill of exchange and / or document are negotiated by your Bank, if the bill of exchange and / or document do not conform to the conditions set out in the letter of credit, or for any other reason, they are rejected for handling by your Bank’s discounting bank or correspondent bank, or rejected for payment by the issuing bank, paying bank or confirming bank, or if the goods are found to be different in quality, quantity, etc. on delivery or other occasions, or are rejected by the counterparty for any other reason, or your Bank suffers damage due to a defective bill of exchange and / or document, the Contracting Party shall be willing to take full responsibility. Upon notification from your Bank, [the Contracting Party] shall immediately repay the advance amount, interest and all other related expenses to your Bank. The interest shall be calculated and paid from your Bank’s advance date to the Contracting Party’s repayment date in accordance with the Contract and in accordance with the stipulations of Article 7 of the Common Clauses in Chapter I of this Agreement.


The Contracting Party hereby authorizes your Bank to issue a guarantee letter, compensation promise or compensation to the issuing bank, confirming bank, or paying bank without notice to the Contracting Party if your Bank or your Bank’s correspondent bank deems it necessary. The Contracting Party shall be willing to take full responsibility for these matters, and if your Bank suffers any loss as a result, the Contracting Party shall pay full compensation.
