Overdraft Limit(s) and Utilisation
1.2 The Facility may be utilised by
overdrawing the Facility Accounts up to the
Facility Limit. The Facility Limit
must not at any time be exceeded.
1.3 For the purpose of calculating
utilisation of the Facility:-
(a)
any credit balances on the
Foreign Currency Accounts will be netted
against any debit balance on
the Foreign Currency Accounts in the same
Foreign Currency; then
(b)
the Sterling equivalent of the net balances on the Foreign Currency
Accounts shall be
calculated by reference to the
prevailing market
rate of exchange; and then
(c)
the Sterling equivalent of the net balances on the Foreign Currency
Accounts will be netted against (or
aggregated with) the balance on
the Sterling Current Account.
1.4 The Bank may decline
to pay a cheque (or allow
any other payment
or
withdrawal) from a Facility Account
(whether in credit or debit) which
would result in the Facility Limit
being exceeded.
1.5 If the Bank does pay a cheque (or
allows any other payment or withdrawal)
resulting in the Facility Limit being
exceeded it will not mean that the
Facility Limit has
changed or that the Bank
will agree to pay any other
cheque (or allow any other payment or
withdrawal) which would have that
effect.
1.6 The

of
calculating the utilisation of the
Facility (and any interest payable). If
however the
Bank does pay a cheque (or
allows any other
payment or
withdrawal) against
uncleared credits this does not mean that it is bound
to do so at other times.
Creditor Account

all times and

which could result in a cleared
debtor balance. If the Bank does pay a cheque
(or allows any other payment
or withdrawal) resulting
in a cleared debtor
balance it will not mean that a borrowing
facility has been established or that
the Bank will agree to pay any
other cheque (or
allow any other payment or
withdrawal) which would have the same effect. 2 Preconditions
