Consider expanding of the Default provision under Paragraph 6 of the CSA to include “Termination Events where all Transactions are Affected Transactions”. This is as per Section 3.2 of the 2001 ISDA Margin Provisions in which it is recommended that Paragraph 6 of the CSA should apply where all transactions are closed out resulting from of an Event of Default or “Specified Condition” — the latter of which is defined to include the Termination Events listed under the ISDA Master Agreement. It is likely that all Transactions would be Affected Transactions should a Credit Event Upon Merger or Additional Termination Event occur.
