Where a mutual aid contract has been cancelled and the number of months in which premiums were paid is 12 or more, the Organization pays a cancellation refund to the mutual aid policyholder.
Where a mutual aid contract has been cancelled pursuant to Article 7, paragraph (2), item (ii), notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, no cancellation refund is paid; provided, however, that this does not apply where there are special circumstances specified by Order of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The amount of the cancellation refund is the amount obtained by multiplying the total premium amount calculated pursuant to the following paragraph by a ratio specified by Cabinet Order on the basis of the number of months in which premiums were paid, the grounds for the cancellation of the mutual aid contract, and other such matters.
The total premium amount is the amount obtained by deducting, from the total amount of premiums paid at the time of the cancellation of the mutual aid contract, the total amount of an amount equivalent to one-tenth of the amount of mutual aid benefits already lent or to be lent and the amount already applied to repayment or payment pursuant to Article 10, paragraph (5) (including as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to paragraph (6) of the preceding Article).
Where the Organization is to pay a cancellation refund to a mutual aid policyholder and there are mutual aid benefits or temporary loans to be repaid, interest to be paid or penalties under Article 10, paragraph (3) or paragraph (5) of the preceding Article to be paid, or mutual aid benefits, temporary loans, early repayment allowances, cancellation refunds or full repayment allowances to be returned pursuant to Article 13, the Organization may deduct those amounts from the amount of that cancellation refund.

cancellation
解除
Ending a contract by one party's notice to the other, where the contract or the law gives that party a right to cancel (Civil Code, Article 540, paragraph (1)). The Civil Code lets a party cancel for the other's failure to perform: after a demand to perform within a reasonable time that is not met, unless what is still missing is minor (Article 541), or at once where performance has become wholly impossible, or the other party has clearly refused to perform, among other cases where performance clearly will not come (Article 542, paragraph (1)). On cancellation each party must put the other back in the position before the contract, and damages can still be claimed (Article 545, paragraphs (1) and (4)); a lease, though, ends only from then on (Article 620). Cancellation differs from rescission (取消し), after which the act is treated as void from the start (Article 121).
