Full text of Section 5(b)(iii)
- 5(b)(iii) Tax Event. Due to
- (1) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, after a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or
- (2) a Change in Tax Law,
- the party (which will be the Affected Party) will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the next succeeding Scheduled Settlement Date
- (A) be required to pay to the other party an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) or

Content and comparisons
The 1992 ISDA represented a significant change from the 1987 ISDA which was a bit half-hearted about gross-ups.
Other than the renumbering, no real changes in the definition of Tax Event from the 1992 ISDA to the 2002 ISDA though, unhelpfully, the sub-paragraph references in the 1992 ISDA are (1) and (2) and in the 2002 ISDA are (A) and (B). Otherwise, pretty much the same.
Summary
Basically, the gist is this: if the rules change after the Trade Date such that you have to gross up an Indemnifiable Tax would weren’t expecting to when you priced the trade, you have a right to get out of the trade, rather than having to ship the gross up for the remainder of the Transaction.
That said, this paragraph is a bastard to understand. Have a gander at the JC’s nutshell version (premium only, sorry) and you’ll see it is not such a bastard after all, then.
In the context of cleared swaps, you typically add a third limb, which is along the lines of:
- (3) required to make a deduction from a payment under an Associated LCH Transaction where no corresponding gross up amount is required under the corresponding Transaction Payment under this Agreement.
