**The amounts of such Net Loans Receivable, Other Licensee Assets, and Affiliate Assets will be obtained from the annual reports that § 6.2-1534 of the Code of Virginia requires licensees to file with the bureau on or before the first day of April of each year. Accordingly, fees will be calculated based on Net Loans Receivable, Other Licensee Assets, and Affiliate Assets as of December 31 of the calendar year preceding the date of the assessment. For purposes of this section, "Net Loans Receivable" means the total outstanding principal balance of all loans made under the Act.

In accordance with § 6.2-1532 of the Code of Virginia, annual fees for any given calendar year will be assessed on or before May 1 of that year and must be paid on or before June 1 of that year.

Notwithstanding any provision of this section, if a licensee was not licensed under the Act as of December 31 of the calendar year preceding the date of the assessment, the annual fee shall be $0.

Fees prescribed and assessed pursuant to this schedule are apart from and do not include the reimbursement for costs authorized by subsection C of § 6.2-1533 of the Code of Virginia.
