(4) In applying payments pursuant to the preceding Paragraph (3), if the amount so applied is insufficient to pay the full amount of any item enumerated above, as to the first item not to be satisfied (the "Unsatisfied Item"), the remaining amount after subtraction of the amount applied to the items in priority to the Unsatisfied Item from the amount paid by the Borrower shall be applied on a pro rata basis according to the share of each obligation due and payable by the Borrower with respect to such Unsatisfied Item.
(5) The Borrower shall not deduct any Taxes and Duties from the payment of obligations under this Agreement unless such deduction is required by Laws and Ordinances. If such deduction is required to be made from the amount payable by the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay such additional amounts as will result in payment to the Lenders and the Agent of the amounts which would otherwise have been payable. In such case, the Borrower shall send the tax certificate (or any other documents which may be obtainable or available by the Borrower and satisfactory to the Lenders
or the Agent) with respect to withholding tax issued by the tax authorities or other regulatory agencies in the United States of America directly to the relevant Lenders or the Agent within 30 days after the payment thereof. Article 16    Distribution to the Lenders

(2) The Agent may (but is not obliged to) make distribution to the Lenders by way of reimbursable payment. Such reimbursable payment does not constitute the Borrower's performance of obligations. In the event that reimbursable payment is made, if the Borrower does not perform its obligations pertaining to such reimbursable payment by the Payment Time, the Lenders to whom the reimbursable payment has been distributed pursuant to this Paragraph (2) shall, as soon as so requested by the Agent, return to the Agent the amount of such reimbursable payment distributed to them. Furthermore, such Lenders shall, as soon as so requested by the Agent, pay any reimbursable costs required for such reimbursable payment to the Agent according to the amount of the reimbursable payment they have received. If the reimbursable costs are paid by the Lender to the Agent, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the amount equal to such reimbursable costs so paid. In the event the Agent has completed the procedure for reimbursable payment of the distribution to the Lenders prior to receiving a notice from the Borrower of service of order for provisional attachment, preservative attachment or attachment against the Individual Loan pursuant to Article 18(3)(b), the Agent shall not be liable for damages and others incurred by a creditor who applied for such provisional attachment, preservative attachment or attachment, the Borrower, the Lenders or any other third party due to such reimbursable payment of the distribution by the Agent and such damages and others shall be dealt with by the Borrower at its own expense and on its own responsibility. If the Agent has incurred damages and others (including, but not limited to, the monies receivable specified in the third and fourth sentences in this Paragraph (2)) attributable to such reimbursable payment of the
distribution, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent for such damages and others.

In this case, the Borrower shall notify such Lender or the Agent of such set-off in writing and forthwith send to such Lender or the Agent the instruments and passbooks, with a signature affixed thereto, evidencing the obligations under the deposits or other obligations which are offset. In case such set-off takes place, the calculation of the interest, Break Funding Costs, default interest, etc. with respect to the claims and obligations shall be made as if such claims and obligations terminated as of the date on which such notice reaches such Lender or the Agent. The interest rates or other rates shall comply with the provisions of the relevant agreements for such interest rates or other rates. As for the exchange
rate, the rate at the time when the calculation is implemented and as reasonably determined by the Agent or such Lender shall be applied.
