Good will clause

In response to the request of the representatives of the Government of the Republic of Zambia:

a) the Participating Creditor Countries agreed in principle to a meeting to consider the matter of the Republic of Zambia's debt service payments falling due after March 31, 2002 and relating to loans or credits pursuant to a contract or other financial arrangement concluded before January 1, 1983, provided:

- that the Republic of Zambia continues to have an appropriate arrangement with the International Monetary Fund ;

- that the Republic of Zambia has reached with other creditors effective arrangements meeting the conditions [treated in the Agreed Minute] and has reported in writing to the Chairman of the Paris Club, pursuant to [the Minute] ;

- and that the Republic of Zambia has complied with all conditions set out in this Agreed Minute.

b) alternatively, if as at April 1, 2002, the Government of the Republic of Zambia has maintained satisfactory relations with the Participating Creditor Countries, and notably has fully implemented all agreements signed with them and continues to have an appropriate arrangement with the International Monetary Fund, the Participating Creditor Countries agree in principle to hold a meeting to consider the matter of the Republic of Zambia's stock of debt.
 

Special account

To facilitate the implementation of this Agreed Minute, the Government of the Republic of Zambia will deposit in the special account established with the Bank for International Settlements, the equivalent of at least SDR 3,3 million at the end of each month, commencing in July 1999 through March 2002 inclusive.

The total amount approximates the amounts estimated to be payable to all Participating Creditor Countries from April 1, 1999 up to March 31, 2002 inclusive under the terms of the bilateral agreements to be concluded pursuant to this Agreed Minute. As specific payments under these agreements become due, the Government of the Republic of Zambia will draw on the special account to meet these payments ; no drawing will be made on the special account for any other use before all payments due from April 1, 1999 up to March 31, 2002 inclusive under these agreements have been made. Any drawing on this account will be made after a previous 15-day notice to the above Bank, which this Bank will notify immediately to the Chairman of the Paris Club. This scheme could be continued by agreement between the parties.

In order to secure comparable treatment of its debt due to all its external public or private creditors, the Government of the Republic of Zambia commits itself to seek promptly from all its external creditors debt reduction and reorganization arrangements on terms comparable in net present value to those set forth in the Agreed Minute for credits of comparable maturity. Comparability of treatment for debt reduction in net present value is assessed not only on the basis of the reduction in the face value of the debt but also on the terms of repayment of the debts not cancelled.
