(1) "whereby" = used as a relative adverb (meaning: by which) to introduce a relative clause modifying the noun "a method".
(2) "that" = used as a conjunction to introduce a noun clause in apposition with "a method".

These two sentences have the same meaning.

(3) "which" is a relative pronoun introducing a relative clause modifying "the rate".
(4) "that" is a conjunction introducing the "appositive" clause to define "the rate".
