Clause 5.2 is replaced with the following: "5.2 Subject to clause 5.1 and 5.6, interest charges are calculated on a daily basis in the following manner." To calculate the interest charge that is payable in respect of a given day, we start by determining the Unpaid Daily Balance of your Lombard Visa Card Account at the end of that day. We then determine if there is any part of that Unpaid Daily Balance that is not to be subject to an interest charge for that day (being a non interest bearing part of the Unpaid Daily Balance for that day). On a given day, any part of the Unpaid Daily Balance that represents the outstanding balance of a transaction that is subject to an IFP or a Deferred Payment IFP at that time will be a non interest bearing amount for that day. Once we have deducted all parts of the Unpaid Daily Balance that are non interest bearing parts of the Unpaid Daily Balance for that day, then the following applies: (a) that part of the remainder of the Unpaid Daily Balance to which the Standard Annual Percentage Rate applies is subject to the application of the Daily Percentage Rate; and (b) that part of the remainder of the Unpaid Daily Balance to which the Special Promotion Rate applies is subject to the application of the Special Promotion Daily Percentage Rate, so as to determine the interest charge for that day."

6 V1.0 9/12 To receive this interest free benefit, you must pay, by the due date of the account statement the amount identified in your statement as the "Optional repayment to qualify for up to 55 days interest free on purchases".
