A simple and innocuous enough provision. Almost redundant — why go to the trouble of defining borrowed money as another term? (because some firms, in their infinite wisdom, will wish to change the definition of borrowed money to include derivatives, other trading exposures, or even any payment obligations of any kind, and Specified Indebtedness is a (somewhat) less loaded label than borrowed money)[1].
In any case, what to make of the definition of borrowed money? Could it include repo? (No, according to Simon Firth - see here)
Of particular interest in the debate on Cross Default. Please refer to that section for a fuller discussion. see also the somewhat clumsier (but materially similar) definition of Specified Indebtedness in the EFET Master Agreement.
