2. Ne glede na določbe predhodne točke 1 pa izplačila ne bodo izvršena v zvezi s plačili za izdatke, nastale pred datumom te pogodbe.
3. Ne glede na dodelitev določenega zneska kredita ali določenih odstotkov izplačil, navedenih v tem dodatku, pa lahko banka, če upravičeno presodi, da znesek kredita, ki je že dodeljen kaki kategoriji, upravičeni do izplačila, ne bo zadostoval za financiranje dogovorjenega odstotka vseh izdatkov te kategorije, z obvestilom kreditojemalcu;
(a) prerazporedi v dobro te kategorije v obsegu, ki je potreben za pokritje ocenjenega primanjkljaja, sredstva iz kredita, ki so tedaj dodeljena kaki drugi kategoriji in po mnenju banke niso potrebna za pokrivanje drugih izdatkov;
(b) če pa s tako prerazporeditvijo ni mogoče v celoti pokriti primanjkljaja, lahko zmanjša odstotek, ki je v tistem trenutku predviden za izplačilo za pokrivanje takih izdatkov znotraj kategorije, v kateri primanjkljaj obstaja, da bi omogočila nadaljnje izplačevanje sredstev za to kategorijo do trenutka, ko bodo uresničeni vsi odhodki v okviru take kategorije.

DODATEK 4 – POSEBNI RAČUN
1. V tem dodatku imajo navedeni izrazi tale pomen:
"upravičena kategorija" pomeni kategoriji 1 in 2, ki sta tabelarično prikazani v 2. točki Dodatka 2 k tej pogodbi;
"upravičeni izdatki" pomeni izdatke v zvezi z upravičenimi stroški del in storitev, ki so potrebni za projekt in se financirajo iz sredstev kredita, ki se občasno dodeljujejo upravičeni kategoriji v skladu z določbami Dodatka 2 k tej pogodbi;
"maksimalni saldo posebnega računa" pomeni vsoto, ki je enaka trem milijonom dolarjev (3.000.000 USD); in
"minimalna izplačilna vsota posebnega računa" pomeni vsoto, ki je enaka sto tisoč dolarjem (100.000 USD).
2. Izplačila iz posebnega računa bodo namenjena zgolj za upravičene izdatke v skladu z določbami tega dodatka.
3. Ko bo banka prejela ustrezna dokazila o odprtju posebnega računa na predvideni način v skladu s pogoji, ki so za banko sprejemljivi, vključno z ustrezno zaščito pred pobotom, rubežem ali zaplembo, lahko kreditojemalec banko zaprosi, da iz razpoložljive vsote izplača in položi na posebni račun začetno vsoto, ki ne bo večja od maksimalnega salda posebnega računa niti manjša od minimalne izplačilne vsote posebnega računa.
4. Nato lahko kreditojemalec zaprosi banko, da izplača dodatne zneske iz razpoložljive vsote ter jih položi ha posebni račun, pri tem pa je treba upoštevati omejitve, ki so navedene v točki 6 v nadaljevanju, in za vsak zaprošeni dvig izpolnjevati tele pogoje:
(a) Kreditojemalec bo banki predložil bančne izkaze in dokumente ter vsakršna druga dokazila, ki jih bo banka zahtevala o tem, da so bili zneski, izplačani s posebnega računa, pravilno porabljeni.
(b) Po izvedbi zahtevanega izplačila iz razpoložljive vsote in pologu te izplačane vsote na posebni račun, saldo posebnega računa ne sme biti večji od maksimalnega salda posebnega računa.
(c) Znesek zahtevanega izplačila iz razpoložljive vsote za polog na posebni račun razen na podlagi občasne odobritve banke ne sme biti manjši od minimalne izplačilne vsote posebnega računa.
5. Ne glede na zahtevo iz predhodne točke 4(a) pa bo kreditojemalec, kadar koli bo banka to upravičeno zahtevala, predložil poročilo o saldu in drugih podrobnostih posebnega računa, vključno bančne izkaze in druge dokumente in dokazila, ki jih utegne banka zahtevati kot dokaz, da so bila plačila iz posebnega računa opravljena v skladu z zahtevami, navedenimi v tem dodatku.
6, Ne glede na določbe 4. točke tega dodatka pa banka razen v primeru, če bi se drugače dogovorila, ne bo izplačala sredstev iz razpoložljive vsote in jih položila na posebni račun.
(a) če banka v katerem koli trenutku ugotovi, da bi morala biti vsa nadaljnja izplačila razpoložljive vsote opravljena v skladu z določbami poglavja 2.02(a) te pogodbe;
(b) ali ko razpoložljiva vsota, dodeljena upravičenim kategorijam, doseže dvakratno vsoto maksimalnega salda posebnega računa.
Izplačila razpoložljive vsote, dodeljena upravičenim kategorijam, bodo potem potekala po postopku, ki ga določi banka z ustreznim obvestilom kreditojemalcu. Taka nadaljnja izplačila bodo izvedena le, ko se bo banka prepričala, da bodo vsi zneski, ki bodo ostali položeni na posebnem računu na datum takega obvestila, uporabljeni za plačilo upravičenih izdatkov in bodo v višini, ki bo za banko sprejemljiva.
7. (a) Če banka v katerem koli trenutku ugotovi, da je bilo kako plačilo s posebnega računa:
(i) izvedeno za izdatke ali v višini, ki po točki 2 tega dodatka niso upravičeni,
(ii) ali da glede na dokazila, predložena banki, ni bilo upravičeno,
(b) lahko kreditojemalca zaprosi:
(i) da preskrbi dodatna dokazila, ki bi jih banka lahko zahtevala,
(ii) ali da položi na posebni račun (če pa banka tako zahteva, tej povrne) znesek, ki bo enak znesku nedopustnega ali neupravičenega plačila ali dela le- tega.
Če pride banka do kake ugotovitev iz predhodnih točk (a)(i) ali (ii), ne bo opravljala nobenih nadaljnjih pologov na posebni račun (razen če se ne dogovori drugače), dokler kreditojemalec (x) ne bo položil na posebni račun ali banki povrnil zneska, enakega znesku plačila (ali delu le-tega), za katerega je bilo ugotovljeno, da ni bil upravičen, ali (y) dokler ne bo preskrbel dodatnih
dokazil, ki bodo banko prepričala, da so bili zneski, ki so bili prej izplačani iz posebnega računa, pravilno uporabljeni.
8. (a) Če banka v kakem trenutku ugotovi, da kak neplačan znesek na posebnem računu ne bo potreben za pokritje nadaljnjih plačil za upravičene izdatke, bo kreditojemalec, potem ko ga bo banka o tem obvestila, tej takoj vnaprej plačal ta neplačani znesek. Prav tako bo kreditojemalec, v primeru če bo banka od njega zahtevala, da ji povrne določen znesek v skladu s točko 7(b)(ii), takoj po prejemu obvestila od banke tej vnaprej plačal tak neplačani znesek. V takem primeru zahteva, da morajo biti vnaprejšnja plačila opravljena na datum plačila obresti, skladno s spodnjo točko 8(c) ne velja.
(b) Kreditojemalec lahko s predhodnim obvestilom banki v skladu s poglavjem 2.10(a) te pogodbe vnaprej plača vsa sredstva ali del sredstev, položenih na posebni račun, na kateri koli datum plačila obresti.
(c) Vsa vnaprejšnja plačila zneskov iz predhodnih točk (a) in (b) bodo opravljena v skladu s poglavjem 2.10 te pogodbe. Za taka vnaprejšnja plačila ne veljajo minimalne vsote, navedene v poglavju 2.10(c)(l) te pogodbe, vendar pa mora kreditojemalec za vsa vnaprejšnja plačila, opravljena na kak drug datum od datuma plačila obresti, plačati banki vse stroške, ki jih bo banka sama ocenila (in sporočila kreditojemalcu) in jih je utrpela zaradi razreševanja finančnega ali deviznega položaja ali obeh, da bi zagotovila kredit ali kak njegov del. Vnaprejšnja plačila zneskov iz predhodnih točk (a) in (b) bo banka uporabila, kot je določeno v poglavju 2.10(c)(2) te pogodbe.

Za izvajanje kreditne pogodbe ter vseh pravic in obveznosti za Republiko Slovenijo, ki izhajajo iz kreditne pogodbe, skrbi ministrstvo, pristojno za finance.

Ta zakon začne veljati naslednji dan po objavi v Uradnem listu Republike Slovenije – Mednarodne pogodbe.
