All hail the Determining Party

Note that where an Extraordinary Event occurs, the Determining Party, rather than the Calculation Agent, may be the person called on to calculate a Cancellation Amount. (This is relevant especially where the Calculation Agent is not the Hedging Party, as the Hedging Party will have definite ideas about how to value cancellation vis a vis its own hedge).

Share-for-Share

Is it just is or did ISDA’s crack drafting squad™ hit the wall on the definition of “Share-for-Share”? What do you mean, “and (ii) Reverse Merger”? It looks like something is missing, but we think the rather exasperated tone is basically, “a reverse merger is necessarily Share-for-Share so do we really need to “wrap it round with deemery”, as Büchstein would say? Well, we are jolly well not going to, so see how you like that.”
