(A)
(I) the price (per Allowance) that Receiving Party, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, does or would, in the determination of the Calculation Agent, pay in an arm’s length transaction concluded on the Final Delivery Date for an equivalent number of Allowances to be delivered on the Final Delivery Date or, if later, the Delivery Business Day on which Allowances would be delivered in accordance with prevailing market practice under a spot transaction concluded on the Final Delivery Date; less
(II) the Allowance Purchase Price or Allowance Strike Price, as applicable, as set out in the Confirmation for the relevant EU Emissions Allowance Transaction plus, in those circumstances in which the relevant termination of the parties’ obligations under “Physical Settlement” occurs following a Suspension Event, the Close-out Cost of Carry Amount; multiplied by:
(B) the RPRC Shortfall; plus
(C) interest at the Default Rate for the period from (and including) the Delivery Date to (but excluding) the date of termination in accordance with Part [7](d)(ii)(1)(B)(Failure to Deliver Not Remedied) on an amount equal to the product of the RPRC Shortfall and an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the price determined pursuant to paragraph (1)(A)(I) above over the Allowance Purchase Price or the Allowance Strike Price, as applicable; or
(2) if “Excess Emissions Penalty” is specified to be applicable in the Annex to this Part [7] or the Confirmation for an EU Emissions Allowance Transaction and, if an EEP Risk Period is specified in the Annex to this Part [7] or in the Confirmation for the relevant EU Emissions Allowance Transaction, the Delivery Date falls within the EEP Risk Period for the relevant EU Emissions Allowance Transaction, then, in respect of a failure to deliver a number of Allowances (the “Undelivered Allowances”), an amount equal to the sum of:

(X)
(1) the price (per Allowance) at which Receiving Party is able so to purchase the relevant number of Allowances; less
(2) (A) the Allowance Purchase Price or Allowance Strike Price, as applicable, for the Undelivered Allowances set out in the relevant Confirmation plus, (B) in those circumstances in which the relevant termination of the parties’ obligations under “Physical Settlement” occurs following a Suspension Event, the Close-out Cost of Carry Amount; multiplied by:

(Z) interest at the Default Rate for the period from (and including) the Delivery Date to (but excluding) the date of termination in accordance with Part [7](d)(ii)(1)(B)(Failure to Deliver Not Remedied) on an amount equal to the product of the number of Undelivered Allowances and an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the price determined pursuant to paragraph (2)(A)(I)(X)(1) above over the Allowance Purchase Price or Allowance Strike Price, as applicable; or
(II) if in one or more arm’s length transactions Receiving Party, using its reasonable efforts, is unable to purchase a number of Allowances equivalent to the Undelivered Allowances to be delivered during the Buy-In Period:
(X) in respect of the number of Allowances for which Receiving Party is able to effect a Buy-In during the Buy-In Period, an amount for such Allowances calculated in accordance with paragraph (I) above; and
(Y) in respect of a number of Allowances equal to the number of Undelivered Allowances minus the number of Allowances referred to in (II)(X) above (the “Shortfall”), the sum of:
(a)
(I) the price (per Allowance) at which Receiving Party, using its reasonable efforts and in an arm’s length transaction, is able to purchase as soon as reasonably possible for delivery after the Reconciliation Deadline a number of Allowances (such Allowances also being of the same Allowance Type equal to the Shortfall; less
(II) the Allowance Purchase Price or Allowance Strike Price, as applicable, for the Undelivered Allowances set out in the relevant Confirmation plus, in those circumstances in which the relevant termination of the parties’ obligations under “Physical Settlement” occurs following a Suspension Event, the Close-out Cost of Carry Amount; plus

(c) onterest at the Default Rate for the period from (and including) the Delivery Date to (but excluding) the date Receiving Party is or would be able to purchase Allowances in accordance with paragraph (II)(Y)(a)(1) above on an amount equal to the product of the number of Undelivered Allowances and an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the price determined pursuant to paragraph (II)(Y)(a)(1) above over the Allowance Purchase Price or the Allowance Strike Price, as applicable; and
(B) such reasonable costs and expenses which Receiving Party incurs as a direct result of Delivering Party’s failure to deliver the Shortfall to the extent that those costs and expenses are not reflected in paragraphs (A)(I) or (A)(II) above; or
(3) if “Failure to Deliver (Alternative Method)” is specified to be applicable in the Annex to this Part [7] or the Confirmation for an EU Emissions Allowance Transaction, then, in respect of a failure to deliver a number of Allowances (the number of Allowances not so delivered being the “RPRC Shortfall”), an amount equal to:
(A)
(I) the price (per Allowance) Receiving Party, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, does or would, in the determination of the Calculation Agent, pay in an arm’s length transaction concluded in accordance with prevailing market practice on the Final Delivery Date to purchase a number of Allowances equivalent to the RPRC Shortfall for delivery on the first Delivery Business Day on which transactions concluded on the Delivery Date would be settled in accordance with prevailing market practice; less
(II) the Allowance Purchase Price or Allowance Strike Price, as applicable, as set out in the Confirmation for such EU Emissions Allowance Transaction plus, in those circumstances in which the relevant termination of the parties’ obligations under “Physical Settlement” occurs following a Suspension Event, the Close-out Cost of Carry Amount; multiplied by:
