Loan Servicing Fee

A Loan Servicing Fee is charged to the borrower and debited from the borrower's account on the Interest Payment Dates:

• 0.07% of the amount borrowed, calculated monthly on an actual calendar day basis and payable per month of the loan term; and
• a one-off fee of:

1.4%		1.3%	1.2%
USD	Loan amount Up to 150,000	Loan amount from 150,001 to 350,000	Loan amount from 350,001
EUR	Loan amount Up to 125,000	Loan amount from 125,001 to 300,000	Loan amount from 300,001
GBP	Loan amount Up to 100,000	Loan amount from 100,001 to 250,000	Loan amount from 250,001
CAD	Loan amount Up to 200,000	Loan amount from 200,001 to 450,000	Loan amount from 450,001
CHF	Loan amount Up to 150,000	Loan amount from 150,001 to 350,000	Loan amount from 350,001

Example: The total fee for  a £200,000 loan with a 18 months term is £5,220*: £200,000 x 0.07%  x 18 = £2,520* plus  £100,000 x 1.4% + £100,000 x 1.3% = £2,700*.

For Loan Extensions the above Loan Servicing Fee applies based on the extended term minus 20%. The maximum loan term including any extensions is 60 months. The minimum extension is 3 months.

Prepayment

All or part of a loan can be repaid before maturity. A prepayment fee is payable, which is, for partial prepayments, calculated as the difference between the total unpaid Loan Servicing Fee as implied by the original or extended loan term and initial loan amount, and an adjusted total Loan Servicing Fee as implied by the remaining loan term and new loan amount. For full prepayments, the fee consists of the total unpaid Loan Servicing Fee as implied by the original or extended loan term and loan amount. The prepayment fee is deducted from the borrower's account when the prepayment is processed.

*approximation as the exact amount depends on number of days in the month
