18. SET-OFF

18.1 Lender’s Right of Set-Off. When the Borrower is required to perform its obligations to the Lender upon their due date, upon acceleration or otherwise, (a) the Lender may set off the receivables it has against the Borrower under this Agreement against its deposit obligations or other obligations owed to the Borrower whether or not such obligations are due and payable, and (b) the Lender may also omit giving prior notice and following established procedures, may take the deposited amount on behalf of the Borrower, and apply this amount to the payment of obligations. The interest, Break Funding Cost and default interest and others for the receivables and obligations involved in such a set-off or application to payment shall be calculated up to the time of such calculation, and in such calculation, the interest rate and default interest rate shall be in accordance with each agreement, and the foreign exchange rate at the time such calculation is made, as reasonably determined by the Lender, shall be applied. If the amount to be set-off or applied to payment is not sufficient to extinguish all of the Borrower’s debts, the Lender may apply such set-off amount in the order and method it deems appropriate, and the Borrower shall not object to such application; provided, the Lender shall be obligated to deliver reasonably satisfactory evidence to the Borrower of the amount of such set-off.

18.2 Borrower’s Right. The Borrower may, upon the Due Date of payment of the Loan, and if it is necessary for the Borrower to preserve its deposit receivables or any other receivables that it has against the Lender that became due, set off such receivables against its obligations owed to the Lender under this Agreement. In this case, the Borrower shall give written set-off notice to the Lender and immediately submit to the Lender the receivable certificates for the deposit receivables or other receivables being set-off and the passbook impressed with the seal of the seal impression submitted. The interest and default interest for the receivables and obligations involved in such a set-off shall be calculated up to the day of receipt of such set-off notice, and in such calculation, the interest rate and default interest rate shall be figured in accordance with each agreement, and the foreign exchange rate at the time such calculation is made, as reasonably determined by the Lender, shall be applied. If the

Borrower’s receivables to be set-off are not sufficient to extinguish all of its debts, the Borrower may apply such set-off amount in the order and method it deems appropriate; provided, however, that if the Lender objects to such order or method of application designated by Borrower or if the Borrower does not instruct such order or method, any such amounts may be applied in the order and method deemed appropriate by the Lender, and the Borrower shall not object to such application; provided, the Lender shall be obligated to deliver reasonably satisfactory evidence to the Borrower of the amount of such set-off. Notwithstanding the above, if the Borrower effects a set-off with respect to the bills and notes which the Lender has discounted and have not yet become due, the Borrower may do so upon assuming the repurchasing obligations for the face value of the discounted bills and notes; provided, however, that the Borrower may not effect a set-off with regard to the bills and notes which the Lender has discounted and assigned to a third party.
