(d)(i)(3) Netting
If on any date parties would otherwise be due to deliver fungible Allowances to each other (and between the same pair of Holding Accounts) under separate Transactions then, on such date, parties’ respective delivery obligations will be automatically satisfied and discharged replaced by an obligation upon the party having the larger deliverable obligation to deliver the excess of its delivery obligation over the other party’s delivery obligation.
(d)(i)(4) Settlement Disruption Event
- (A) Notification: Either party may notify the other party in writing of a Settlement Disruption Event and the impacted Transactions. If it is the affected party, it must also give details of the Settlement Disruption Event and a non-binding estimate of the extent and likely duration of the disruption on its obligations.
- (B) Effect: Upon a Settlement Disruption Event both parties’ obligations will be suspended, subject to Continuing Settlement Disruption Event below, until the Settlement Disruption Event no longer prevents settlement. During the Settlement Disruption Event, the affected party must use all reasonable endeavours to settle.
- (C) Delayed Performance: Subject to Continuing Settlement Disruption Event below, once the Settlement Disruption Event no longer prevents settlement, both parties must, promptly and within two Delivery Business Days, resume their obligations under the Transactions.

- then at that time there will be an Illegality where the affected Transaction is the sole Affected Transaction, both parties are Affected Parties, there is no Waiting Period and, if an Early Termination Date results, when determining the Early Termination Amount the suspended obligations will resume on the Early Termination Date, if “Payment on Termination for Settlement Disruption” applies, and if it does not the parties will have no further obligations after the Settlement Disruption Event other than for Unpaid Amounts and provided that (other than in respect of already-delivered Allowances)

If Delivering Party has successfully delivered the Allowances to be Delivered by the Delayed Delivery Date, Receiving Party must pay Delivering Party, on the Delayed Payment Date:
- (I) Allowance Forward Transactions: (Allowance Purchase Price x Number of Allowances delivered by the Delayed Delivery Date) + Cost of Carry Amount;
- (II) Allowance Option Transactions: (Allowance Strike Price x Number of Allowances delivered by the Delayed Delivery Date) + Cost of Carry Amount.

When determining the Early Termination Amount, if “Payment on Termination for Suspension” applies, the suspended obligations will resume on the Early Termination Date, and if it does not, the parties will have no further obligations after the Suspension Event (other than for any Unpaid Amounts); provided that:
- (i) Delivering Party must promptly refund any amount Receiving Party paid it under any Allowance Forward Transaction or Call; and
