Template:M summ OSLA 15
What on earth, you might muse, is a “course of dealings”? According to BusinessDictionary.com, it is “a pattern of normal business conduct between two parties. It is established over a period involving several transactions, and may be used as a reliable indicator of how they intend to deal in the future.”
In any weather, it adds nothing but heft to this clause. This is a standard termination on notice clause for the 1995 OSLA itself, but doesn’t cut across the terms — and in particular, any stipulated term for any loan, which will be set out in a Borrowing Request[1] They made a much better fist of it in the GMSLA.
So before you can use this clause, you must validly terminate each loan under the terms of its Borrowing Request.
- ↑ Curiously, the OSLA doesn’t define a “loan” as such, but rather refers to the terms, accepted by the Lender, of a Borrowing Request. This is counting-sheep-legs-and-dividing-by-four behaviour, calculated to discombobulate non-specialists and keep them away.
