Section 10.3 in a Nutshell

Use at your own risk, campers!
10.3. “Dividend Period” means the Second Period, unless specified as the First Period.
10.3(a) The “First Period” starts on the Clearance System Business Day one Settlement Cycle after the Trade Date and then runs from one Cash Settlement Payment Date or Settlement Date to the next.
10.3(b) The “Second Period” starts on the Trade Date and then runs from one Valuation Date to the next, ending on the final Valuation Date (unless it is a Physically-settled Forward Transaction to which Variable Obligation doesn’t apply, in which case it ends a Settlement Cycle before the Settlement Date).
