In theory, too, the {{eqderivprov|Hedging Party}} might not be named the {{eqderivprov|Determining Party}}. Which is kind of awkward, since the Cancellation Amount is couched in terms of the cost to the determining Party of unwinding, liquidating or re-establishing its hedge — which it would only do if it was, like, ''[[hedging]]''. | In theory, too, the {{eqderivprov|Hedging Party}} might not be named the {{eqderivprov|Determining Party}}.
