restitution, pecuniary, and non-pecuniary damage, as well as reimbursement of costs and expenses, as established in this judgment, directly to the identified individual and organization within a period of one year from the notification of this judgment. This is without prejudice to the possibility of making payments within a shorter period. Should the beneficiary pass away before he receives the respective compensation, it shall be directly paid to his heirs, pursuant to the applicable domestic law. 170. The State shall comply with its pecuniary obligations by paying in United States dollars. 171. If, for reasons that can be attributed to the beneficiary of the compensation or his heirs, it is not possible to pay the amounts established within the time frame indicated, the state shall deposit the said amounts in their favor in an account or certificate of deposit in a financially sound Ecuadorian financial institution, in United States dollars, and on the most favorable financial terms permitted by the country’s law and banking practice. If, after 10 years, the compensation remains unclaimed, the amounts shall be returned to the State with the accrued interest. If the above is not possible, the State shall ensure the availability of the funds for a period of ten years. 172. The respective amounts corresponding to compensation for restitution, pecuniary, and non-pecuniary damages, as well as reimbursement of costs and expenses, shall be delivered to the persons indicated integrally, as established in this judgment, without any deductions resulting from possible taxes or charges. 173. Should the state fall into arrears, it shall pay interest on the amount owed, corresponding to banking interest on arrears in Ecuador. X OPERATIVE PARAGRAPHS 174.
