- (1)
the e-money scheme rules give the firm the right to charge that fee;
- (2)
the person exercising the redemption right is informed of the amount of the fee after the person makes the request for redemption and before completion of the redemption;
- (3)
that person is given the opportunity, after he has received the information as described in (2), of withdrawing the request before the e-money is redeemed;
- (4)
the fee is in accordance with the firm's usual tariff of fees for such redemptions; and
- (5)
the fee is no greater than necessary to recover the costs to the firm of carrying out that redemption.
Any fee permitted by ELM 6.6.1 R must never exceed the amount of e-money offered for redemption.
