Section 12.9(b)(ii) in a Nutshell

Use at your own risk, campers!
12.9(b)(ii) If “Failure to Deliver” applies, then a Failure to Deliver will not be an Event of Default but the “Delivering Party” must:
(A) notify the “Receiving Party” that the Failure to Deliver has occurred within one Clearance System Business Day of the Exercise Date (for Option Transactions) and at least one Settlement Cycle prior to the Settlement Date (for Forward Transactions and Equity Swap Transactions; and
(B) deliver to the Receiving Party on the Settlement Date the Shares that it can deliver on such date;
and the Receiving Party’s corresponding payment or delivery obligation to the Delivering Party will be proportionately reduced.
Thereafter:
(I) For European Options and Forward Transactions: The Receiving Party may terminate the remaining Transaction effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the related Cancellation Amount;
(II) For American Options and Bermuda Options: The Receiving Party may terminate that part of the Transaction comprising the exercised but not settled Options effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the related Cancellation Amount;
(III) For Equity Swap Transactions: The Receiving Party may terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the unsettled deliveries effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the Cancellation Amount;
(IV) For unexercised American Options and Bermuda Options to which Multiple Exercise applies, and for Equity Swap Transactions where a Settlement Date has not occurred: The Receiving Party may elect within one Settlement Cycle of the affected Settlement Date to terminate the remainder of the Transaction upon two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice, and must (as Determining Party) determine the Cancellation Amount.

Full text of Section 12.9(b)(ii)

12.9(b)(ii) If “Failure to Deliver” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then such event shall not constitute an Event of Default under the ISDA Master Agreement, but upon the occurrence of such an event, the party required to deliver the relevant Shares (the “Delivering Party”) shall (A) give the other party (the “Receiving Party”) notice that a Failure to Deliver has occurred within one Clearance System Business Day of the relevant Exercise Date in the case of an Option Transaction and at least one Settlement Cycle prior to the Settlement Date in the case of a Forward Transaction or Equity Swap Transaction and (B) deliver on the Settlement Date to the Receiving Party such number of Shares that it can deliver on such date. The Receiving Party’s obligation to make any corresponding payment or delivery to the Delivering Party shall be reduced in proportion to the number of Shares it receives from the Delivering Party. In respect of a European Option or a Forward Transaction, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate the Transaction by giving notice to the Delivering Party and the Transaction will terminate on the date that such notice is effective. The Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an American Option or a Bermuda Option, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the exercised Options by giving notice to the Delivering Party. On the date that such notice is effective, a Transaction consisting of the exercised Options only shall be terminated and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an Equity Swap Transaction, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the Number of Shares to be Delivered or Number of Baskets to be Delivered, as the case may be, on that Settlement Date by giving notice to the Delivering Party. On the date that such notice is effective, a Transaction consisting of the Number of Shares to be Delivered or Number of Baskets to be Delivered, as the case may be, on that Settlement Date only shall be deemed to have been terminated on such Settlement Date and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an American Option or a Bermuda Option, in each case to which Multiple Exercise is applicable and upon which less than all Options have been exercised or deemed exercised on the relevant Exercise Date, or in respect of an Equity Swap Transaction in relation to which one or more Settlement Dates have not occurred, the Receiving Party may elect within one Settlement Cycle of the Settlement Date on which the Transaction was partially terminated to terminate the remaining Transaction upon two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice to the Delivering Party, in which event the Transaction shall terminate on the date that such notice is effective and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction.
