ARTICLE TWO            INTEREST RATE AND CALCULATION METHOD

 

V.                               Interest Rate

 

The annual interest rate of loans under this Contract is 8.1%. The interest shall be calculated based on a 360 days a year basis (i.e. 12 months, 30 days per month). If during the forgoing term of loans the corresponding lending benchmark interest rate published by the People’s Bank of China is subject to certain percentage adjustment, the lending annual interest rate under this Contract shall also be adjusted pro rata on the basis of 8.1%.

 

VI.                           The formula for calculating the interest under this Contract is set out as follows:

 

Interest rate = (interest rate as determined in Section V of this Contract) X (loan amount, i.e. RMB  60 million) X (actual days of use/360 days)

 

The number of actual days of use is calculated as from the date  on which the Lender makes actual payment of loans under this Contract  (inclusive) to the date  on which the Lender receives the repayment of loans under this Contract from the Borrower in full amount (exclusive).
