Cost reduction in the case of early repayment and in the case of termination

(1) Insofar as the borrower discharges their obligations under a consumer credit agreement early under section 500 (2), the overall costs of the credit are reduced by the interest and the costs to correspond to the remaining term of the contract.

(2) Insofar as the residual debt of a consumer credit agreement falls due prior to the agreed period by notice being given, the overall costs of the credit are reduced by the interest and the other term-linked charges which, if graduated calculation is used, apply to the period after the due date.
