(b) Share Option Transaction and Share Basket Option Transactions: for any Exercise Date, the number of exercised Options x Option Entitlement x Strike Price Differential.

8.3. “Strike Price Differential” means, for each Valuation Date, the greater of zero and

(ii) where “Prepayment” applies but “Variable Obligation” does not: Number of Shares or Baskets x Settlement Price;
(iii) where “Prepayment” does not apply but “Variable Obligation” does:
(A) where Settlement PriceForward Floor Price: Number of Shares or Baskets x Settlement Price - Forward Floor Price;
(B) where Forward Cap PriceSettlement Price > Forward Floor Price: Number of Shares or Baskets x zero; and

8.6(a)Price Return”:
(i) if the Equity Amount is positive then the Equity Amount Payer will pay it (with any other amounts it owes) to the Equity Amount Receiver on the relevant Cash Settlement Payment Date; and

8.7. The “Equity Amount” for any Cash Settlement Payment Date means Equity Notional Amount X Rate of Return as determined by the Calculation Agent at the Valuation Time on the Valuation Date.
8.8. “Cash Settlement Payment Date” means the date specified in Confirmation or, if none is specified, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the Valuation Date, (or, in either case, the following Currency Business Day if the date in question isn’t one).

If, due to a Disrupted Day, there is more than one Valuation Date for the components of any Basket, the Cash Settlement Payment Date will be determined by reference to the last one.
