{{{{{1}}}|Tax}} and {{{{{1}}} |Stamp Tax}} are meant to be mutually exclusive and both refer to duties levied on payments under the swap {{{{{1}}} |Transaction}} itself and not under hedges to it, so be careful when using them (especially in the context of delta-one synthetic equity swaps where the main stamp duty and capital gains issues accrue on Hedge Positions.

“{{{{{1}}} |Tax}}” is defined in Section {{{{{1}}} |14}} as any tax, charge or other similar listed items, except a stamp, registration, documentation or similar tax (i.e., a “{{{{{1}}} |Stamp Tax}}” as defined in Section {{{{{1}}} |14}} of the 2002 Agreement).
