" That the Directors shall in each year pay or caused to be
paid out of the funds of the Association, to each customer of the
Association whose cash balances shall not, at any time during
the last preceding year, have ever fallen below such sum as shall
be for the time being tired on or limited by the Directors, and

next hereinafter provided, that is to say, such sum for interest
on the average amount of his cash balances during such last
preceding year (in addition to the interest provided for in the
74th and 75th clauses of these presents), as shall bear the same
proportion to one equal halt' part of the net profits so ascertained
as therein provided, as his said average amount shall bear to
aggregate average amounts of the CASD balances of all the said

that the Directors shall have power, anti are hereby authorised
in deciding on the amount or balances which shall be entitled to
such additional interest as last aforesaid, to reject fractional
parts of one hundred pounds if they shall think fit; and provided

fact render it compulsory on such customers to accept such ad-
ditional interest as last aforesaid, and any customer may, pre-
viously or subeequer tly to his opening an account with the
Association, elect whether or not he will accept such additional
interest; and provided also, that the customers of the Associa-
