- (a)To be eligible to prepay an electric loan under this subpart, the borrower must be in compliance with the following:
- (1)The borrower shall be current on all payment obligations on outstanding loans made or guaranteed by RUS. For the purpose of determining eligibility for prepayment, a default by a power supply borrower from which a distribution borrower purchases wholesale power shall not be considered a default by the distribution borrower;
- (2)There shall exist no material defaults under the borrower's RUS Loan Contract and Mortgage;

- (4)The borrower shall be current on all obligations under any wholesale power contract with an RUS financed power supply borrower.
- (b)The eligibility of borrowers that have had any indebtedness representing loans made or guaranteed by RUS restructured shall be determined on a case by case basis considering the terms and conditions of the restructuring agreement.
