What counts as Market Disruption?

A Market Disruption Event is a Trading Disruption or Exchange Disruption that exists during the hour before any Valuation Time or Exercise Time — it keys off the occurrence or existence of the event, not the point when the Calculation Agent determined it — or Early Closure.

Additionally a day is “Disrupted Day” if an Exchange/Related Exchange fails to open for trading during a regular trading session.
