2.4. The Client must take physical delivery of and pay for the currency in question on the date specified in the Contract Note (as defined in Clause 3.2) (‘the Maturity Date’), and, if advance or installment payments are called for by TCC in the Contract Note or under Clause 4, to make such payments at such time or times as TCC may require to fulfill the Contract.

3.2. Following receipt of an Order, TCC shall, if it is willing to accept the Order, agree electronically or orally with the Client the terms on which it is willing to enter into a Contract and shall subsequently fax or transmit electronically to the Client a contract note which will confirm the details of the Order (the ‘Contract Note’).
3.3. Once TCC has transmitted a Contract Note confirming an Order, the Client may only amend or cancel the Contract Note if TCC expressly agrees (and any such amendment or cancellation shall be on the conditions specified by TCC) or otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Clause 3.6.
3.4. TCC may at its absolute discretion refuse any Order or instructions given by the Client without giving any reason, or being liable for any loss the Client suffers as a result of such refusal.
3.5. TCC may (but shall not be obliged to) require further confirmation or information from the Client or Authorised Person of any Order or instruction if:

(a) each party will remain liable to perform accrued but unperformed obligations which have fallen due before termination, but all other rights will cease upon such termination;
(b) the Client will be liable for all of the costs, expenses and losses (and interest at the rate referred to in Clause 5 on any such sums) that TCC may incur (including any action it may take to cover or reduce its exposure) as a result of TCC entering into such Contract with the Client (including the actual or hypothetical costs of unwinding any hedging arrangements which are referable to such Contract). Any excess amount held by TCC in respect of Contract shall be returned to the Client after deducting all other sums due to TCC.

4. PAYMENT
4.1. The Client shall pay by electronic transmission (or by such other means as agreed with TCC in any particular case) in cleared funds into a bank account nominated by TCC (the ‘Transaction Account’) the full value of the currency to be sold by the Client under the Contract (the ‘Sale Currency’) including, in the case of any Contract which is not a spot contract, such installments thereof as may be specified in the Contract Note and/or as TCC may subsequently notify the Client from time to time. Failure by the Client to pay the full value or any such installment shall relieve TCC of any obligation to make any corresponding payment it may be required to make under the relevant Contract.
4.2. (a) Where the Transaction Account is held in a UK bank, or with an FSA regulated institution, TCC will hold and operate the account as a segregated client account. This means TCC shall hold the money in this account on trust for its clients for the purposes set out in Clause 4.2(b) and shall only make payments out of the Transaction Account or apply sums held in it in accordance with the Client’s instructions, or as otherwise specified in clause 4.2(b).
(b) The purposes for which money in the Transaction Account is held and may be applied, withdrawn or transferred by or on behalf of TCC are:
(i) settlement of transactions between TCC and any of its clients;
(ii) payment of other sums due and payable to TCC by TCC’s clients under these Terms or under any Contract including without limitation advance or installment payments, transfer charges and interest;
(iii) payment of sums due to TCC’s clients in accordance with their instructions;
(iv) repayment to TCC of sums owned by TCC and temporarily paid by it into the Transaction Accounts; and
(v) withdrawal or retention of interest by TCC in accordance with Clause 5.2.
(c) The Transaction Account is one in which money received from all TCC’s Clients is pooled and applied as set out in Clause 4.2(b) for all of TCC’s clients. It is not an individually segregated account of the Client.
4.3. The Client must make sure cleared funds are received in the Transaction Account for the full amount of the Sale Currency and any applicable transfer charges on or before the Maturity Date.
4.4. TCC will not make any payment under any Contract without first having received confirmation satisfactory to it that cleared funds for all sums due and payable by the Client to TCC have in fact been received.

4.6. TCC may deduct from any payment to be made to the Client any amount the Client may owe to TCC or any fees, costs, taxation liabilities, or charges incurred by TCC in respect of any transaction with the Client, however they arise.
4.7 Clients should be aware that receipt of funds from TCC into their nominated/beneficiary bank account may result in charges being applied by the beneficiary/receiving bank. Any charges applied by a beneficiary/receiving bank are
outside of the control of TCC. The client should therefore contact the bank directly with regards to any charges that maybe applied against funds received by the bank prior to them crediting the beneficiary account.

5. INTEREST
5.1. If the Client fails to make any payment required under these Terms when it falls due, interest will be charged on the outstanding sum at a rate of five per cent per annum over the base rate of the Bank of England (or of such monetary authority as may replace it). Such interest shall accrue and be calculated daily from the date payment was due until the date the Client pays in full and shall be compounded monthly.
5.2. TCC may receive and retain or apply for its own benefit any interest that arises in respect of any sum paid into the Transaction Account.

6. CHARGES
TCC’s charges will be as set out in the Contract Note. The Client understands that because TCC deals as principal the exchange rate it offers the Client will not be the same as the rate TCC obtains itself.

7. DISPUTES
If a dispute arises between TCC and the Client relating to the existence or terms of any Contract (a ‘Disputed Contract’), TCC may close out or take any other action it reasonably considers appropriate in relation to the Disputed Contract (which may include suspension of performance of the Disputed Contract) pending settlement of the dispute without previously notifying and/or without having received instruction from the Client.
