Here is my guess according to your description.
1. The loan was effective at time_0, it should be the origin of the transaction.
2. The sentence you highlighted means the origina of repayment, indicating repayment should be done in ten installment.
3. No description indicated bank would offer debtor discount.
I suggest you solve the problem with finance common sense:
you use and you pay.
Since the fund has been used four years ago, somebody has to pay for it.
I hope it helps.
