2.7 In order to timely repay relevant payables, the Borrower shall open and maintain at all times relevant account with BOB as agreed in this Contract (in case of change of the account number, this Contract shall continuously apply after the change) and deposit the repayable amount in full and in a timely manner into the agreed account for the deduction of BOB, or the Borrower may also directly transfer funds to the BOB account for repayment and shall notify BOB in a timely manner of the disbursement business number corresponding to the loan repayment.
