GUIDING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PRIME MINISTERS DECISION No. 58/2001/QD-TTg OF APRIL 24, 2001 ON POST-INVESTMENT INTEREST RATE SUPPORT

In furtherance of the Prime Ministers Decision No. 58/2001/QD-TTg of April 24, 2001 on post-investment interest rate support; after reaching an agreement with the Development Assistance Fund, the Finance Ministry gives the following guidance for the implementation thereof:

In this Circular, the Finance Ministry guides the scope and methods of determining post-investment interest rate support levels.

1. Scope of post-investment interest rate support:

The scope of post-investment interest rate support covers projects eligible for the investment preferences under the Governments current regulations guiding the implementation of the Law on Domestic Investment Promotion (amended), which had been invested with loan capital in the Vietnamese currency and foreign currency(ies) borrowed by their investors from credit institutions lawfully operating in Vietnam, have been completed and put into operation, provided that such loan capital has been repaid.

2. Determination of post-investment interest rate support levels:

2.1. Principles for determining and providing post-investment interest rate support:

- Post-investment interest rate support shall be calculated for each project and provided to its investor after loans (principal and interest) are repaid to credit institutions. Depending on size of a project, the provision of post-investment interest rate support shall be effected once or twice a year.

- Investors cannot enjoy post-investment interest rate support for their overdue debts and/or debts repaid in the debt reschedule duration. For loans repaid ahead of time, the post-investment interest rate support levels shall be calculated according to the actual borrowing duration of such capital amount.

- For projects with frozen debts, the debt freezing duration shall not be counted into the actual borrowing term for calculating post-investment interest rate support, and the maximum support duration shall be equal to the duration inscribed in credit contracts.

2.2. Methods of determining post-investment interest rate support levels:

a) For projects with borrowed capital in Vietnam dong:

Actual borrowing duration (converted into years) of the loan principal entitled to post- investment interest rate support

- The States development investment credit interest rates used for calculating post-investment interest rate support levels are those at the time of drawing loan principals eligible for post-investment interest rate support.

- For foreign-currency loan capital amounts: interest rates for considering post-investment interest rate support are actual lending interest rates of credit institutions.

- The post-investment interest rate support levels for projects with borrowed capital in foreign currencies shall be determined in original foreign currencies. On that basis, according to the USD/VND exchange rate on the inter-bank foreign currency market or foreign currency/VND cross rates announced by the State Bank of Vietnam at the time of providing support amounts, the post-investment interest rate support levels in Vietnam dong shall be determined for projects.

2.3. The actual borrowing duration for calculating post-investment interest rate support is a period of time (number of months shall be converted into years) from the date of debt acknowledgment to the date the immature debt principal is repaid to the credit institution.

a) Determining principles:

- The determination of actual borrowing duration for post-investment interest rate support shall be based on the time of receiving loan capital inscribed in the contracts and the time of repaying loan principal inscribed in debt repayment vouchers (with number of months converted into years) by investors to credit institutions.

- The period from the time of first repayment of immature loan principal to the time of first disbursement of loan capital shall serve as basis for calculating the number of actual borrowing months for the loan principal amount involved in the first repayment, and then such number shall serve as basis for counting back and determining the number of actual borrowing months for the loan principal amounts involved in the subsequent repayments.

The borrowing term: 37 months; the grace period: 4 months; the development investment credit interest rate: 9.72% for 1999 and 7% for 2000.

The second quarter (June 1, 2000), provided for the first disbursement: VND 100 million x 4.86% x 7/12 = VND 2.835 million

The third quarter (September 1, 2000), provided for the first disbursement: VND 100 million x 4.86% x 10/12 = VND 4.05 million

The fourth quarter (December 1, 2000):

+ provided for the first disbursement: VND 50 million x 4.86% x 13/12 = VND 2.6325 million

+ Provided for the second disbursement: VND 50 million x 3.5% x 10/12 = VND 1.45 million

In 2001: VND 20.38 million:

The first quarter (March 1, 2001), provided for the second disbursement: VND 100 million x 3.5% x 13/12 = VND 3.78 million

The second quarter (June 1, 2001), provided for the second disbursement: VND 100 million x 3.5% x 16/12 = VND 4.66 million
