Template:IETA Master Agreement Excess Emissions Penalty overview
“Excess Emissions Penalty” has the meaning given to it in the Directive.
“EEP Amount” means an amount (expressed as an amount per Allowance) that the Receiving Party determines, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures, to be its total losses and costs which result from the Delivering Party’s failure to deliver the Shortfall to the extent that those losses and costs are not reflected elsewhere in the definition of Receiving Party’s Replacement Cost and to the extent that they relate to:
- (a) any Excess Emissions Penalty which the Receiving Party must pay to a Relevant Authority in accordance with the terms of the Scheme; or
- (b) if this sub-paragraph (b) is specified in Schedule 2 (Elections) as applying, any amount which the Receiving Party must pay to a third party in respect of any such penalty payable to any other party (including a Relevant Authority) by that third party as a result of the Delivering Party’s failure to deliver the Shortfall.
“EEP Status” means whether or not the Parties have elected in Schedule 2 (‘‘Elections’’) (or the Confirmation for the relevant Transaction) that Excess Emissions Penalty applies to the relevant Period Traded Allowances.
