There was no fixed date for repayment of the transfers. Jack testified that he intended to transfer money from the Special Dividend Account to the JKH Trust as the funds came in and became available.

Except for the payment on December 18, 1989, which was made after the death of decedent, no payments were made with respect to these transfers.
