Template:M summ EFET Allowance Annex 7.4

It is interesting to compare, across all three of the emissions trading documentation suites, the differences and similarities when it comes to resolving an unquenchable Template:EfetaFM.

• Notification: All are the same: either party can notify a Template:EfetaFM. If the affected party is the one who calls it — but, curiously, not if it isn’t, which sets up some odd incentives, but hey — it must use reasonable endeavours to overcome a situation that is, by definition, beyond its control.
• Longstop date: all have variations of a longstop of no later than 9 EFET Allowances Appendix after the scheduled EFET Allowances Appendix, or earlier should a EFET Allowances Appendix intervene. ISDA and EFET also throw in an EFET Allowances Appendix. Which is nice.
• Consequences of hitting the longstop: All of the agreements opt for the “then I woke up and it was all a dream” method of closeout — Template:EfetaNo Termination, at least as an option. They allow the alternative option for a Payment on Termination: ISDA goes for an Early Termination Date as if an Illegality Termination Event, with no Waiting Period, had occurred. EFET and IETA both try to reconstruct something like the termination methodology of a 1992 ISDA, descending into all that ugliness of “Market Quotation” and “Loss”.
