(4) By a payment at the end of the fifteenth year from the date of the borrowing of the said sum of a sum equal to the amount to which the principal has been reduced in accordance with the preceding clause three hereof after payment of the aforesaid thirty (30) half-yearly payments.

(5) Such half-yearly payments shall be made in New Zealand, and no principal or interest shall be paid out of loan-moneys.

(6) The rate payable for brokerage, underwriting, and procurement fees in respect of the raising of the said loan or any part thereof shall not in the aggregate exceed one-half per centum of any amount raised.
