Is there any Arrangement in Place by the NDIC to Waive or Reduce Premium Payable over time for Insured Institutions?

Section 12 of the NDIC Act 16 of 2006 provides that subject to stated conditions, part of the NDIC's surplus can be applied to reduce premium payable by insured institutions.
Furthermore, the NDIC already applied differential premium assessment for the banks and PMBs. 
However, the NDIC is considering adopting DPAs for the MFBs such that premium payable by such Institutions would be based on their risk profile.
