Template:EFET Allowance Annex 4.1

§ 4.1 Delivery, Acceptance and Scheduling Obligations.

(a) Buyer shall Schedule, sell and Transfer to Seller, or, if applicable in accordance with the relevant provision of § 4.1(a)(i) and 4.1(a)(ii), cause to be Transferred, and Buyer shall Schedule, purchase and accept Transfer of, or, if applicable in accordance with the relevant provision of § 4.1(a)(i) and 4.1(a)(ii), cause such Transfer to be accepted, the Contract Quantity at the Delivery Point, and the Seller shall pay to the Buyer the relevant Contract Price. Unless the Parties otherwise agree, the Buyer shall Transfer the Contract Quantity at the Delivery Point during a Contract Quantity between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. CET and any Transfer taking place at a time after 4:00 p.m. CET on a Contract Quantity shall be deemed to have taken place at 10:00 a.m. CET on the next Contract Quantity.

(i) For any Allowance Transaction in which no Transfer Point has been specified by the Buyer, the Buyer shall Transfer, or cause the Transfer of, the Contract Quantity to the Delivery Point from any Holding Account in any Registry.

(ii) Parties may limit the scope of their Transfer and acceptance of Transfer obligations by designating one or more specific Delivery Points and/or Transfer Points for any Allowance Transaction:

:::A.	If one or more Delivery Points are specified by the Parties in respect of an Allowance Transaction, the Buyer’s obligations shall be limited to the obligation to Schedule, sell and Transfer to Seller, or cause to be so Transferred, and the Seller’s obligations shall be limited to the obligation to Schedule, purchase and accept Transfer of, the Contract Quantity at the Delivery Point(s) so specified. 

B. If one or more Transfer Points are specified by the Buyer in respect of an Allowance Transaction, the Buyer’s obligations shall be limited to the obligation to Schedule, sell and Transfer to Seller and the Seller’s obligations shall be limited to the obligation to Schedule, purchase and accept Transfer of, or cause to be accepted such Transfer of, the Contract Quantity from the Transfer Point(s) so specified.

C. Where a Party, in its capacity as Buyer, has specified one or more Delivery Point(s), the other Party will, without delay, nominate each such Holding Account(s) specified by the Buyer as a 'trusted account' (for the purposes of the Registries Regulation) for each of its own Transfer Points.

(b) Where the Parties have agreed upon a list of multiple Delivery Points and/or multiple Transfer Points for an Allowance Transaction:

(i) the Delivery Points so specified shall be deemed to be listed in descending order of preference such that the Delivery Point for the Allowance Transaction shall be the first Holding Account so listed, unless the Buyer is prevented from Transferring to that Delivery Point by an event which would be either an event of Force Majeure or a Suspension Event if that were the only Delivery Point specified by the Party affected by the event, in which case the Delivery Point shall be the next listed Delivery Point that can accept Transfer of Allowances, until such list of Delivery Points has been exhausted; and

(ii) Buyer shall have discretion to Transfer to Seller the Contract Quantity on the Delivery Date from any one or more of the Holding Accounts which have been specified as Transfer Points in respect of Seller; provided, however, that where the Seller is prevented from Transferring from a Transfer Point by an event which would be either an event of Force Majeure or a Suspension Event if that were the only Transfer Point specified by the Party affected by the event, the Seller shall select another listed Transfer Point from which to Transfer the Contract Quantity to the Buyer on the Delivery Date, until such list of Transfer Points has been exhausted;

(c) Where the Parties have agreed upon a list of multiple Transfer Points and/or Delivery Points for an Allowance Transaction:

(i) Buyer may later:

A. amend the order of preference in which the Delivery Points are listed; and/or

B. nominate an additional Delivery Point;

provided that, in each case, Buyer notifies Seller no less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the relevant Delivery Date and Seller consents thereto in writing on or before the day that is five (5) Contract Quantitys after receiving such notice from Buyer; and

(ii) Seller may later:

A. nominate an additional Transfer Point without Buyer’s consent provided that Seller notifies Buyer of such nomination in writing on or before the day that is ten (10) Contract Quantitys prior to the relevant Delivery Date.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, specifying Delivery Point(s) and/or Transfer Point(s) in respect of any particular Allowance Transaction for purposes of this § 4.1 need not preclude the Parties from designating different Holding Accounts than the Physical Settlement Netting Accounts specified for the purposes of § 4.3 (Physical Settlement Netting) in Part II of this Allowances Appendix.
