| INTRODUCTION<br>
| | ==Article {{cddprov|6}}== |
| The 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions (the “'''{{cddprov|Definitions}}'''”) are intended for use in confirmations of individual credit derivative transactions (“'''{{cddprov|Confirmations}}'''”) governed by agreements such as the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement or the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“'''{{cddprov|ISDA}}'''”). Copies of the ISDA Master Agreements are available from the executive offices of ISDA or from the ISDA website (www.isda.org). A sample form of Confirmation for use with the Definitions is referenced as Exhibit A to the Definitions and will be made available on the ISDA website.<br>
| | {{2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions 6}} |
| The Definitions are an update of the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions as supplemented by the 2009 ISDA Credit Derivatives Determinations Committees, Auction Settlement and Restructuring Supplement to the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions, published by ISDA on July 14, 2009. The Definitions provide the basic framework for the documentation of certain credit derivative transactions. For ease of use, certain sections of the Definitions provide fallback provisions that will apply to a transaction if the parties do not specify otherwise in the Confirmation.<br>
| | ==Article {{cddprov|7}}== |
| As in the case of other product-specific definitions published by ISDA, parties using the Definitions to document credit derivative transactions may adapt or supplement the standard provisions set out in the Definitions in accordance with the specific economic terms agreed between the parties to the relevant transaction.<br>
| | {{2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions 7}} |
| The Definitions are intended to operate on a free-standing basis and therefore, for most transactions, there is no need to incorporate any other ISDA definitions booklets (such as the 2006 ISDA Definitions) into the Confirmation of a credit derivative transaction.<br>
| | ==Article {{cddprov|8}}== |
| ISDA has provided the Definitions to assist the safe and efficient functioning of the credit derivatives market by providing a common set of terms for parties to use in preparing Confirmations for credit derivative transactions. However, the precise documentation of each individual transaction remains the responsibility of the parties concerned. ISDA assumes no responsibility for any use to which the Definitions may be put, including, without limitation, any use of the Definitions in connection with any credit derivative transaction. Each party to a transaction evidenced by a Confirmation referring to or incorporating the Definitions must satisfy itself that the Definitions are appropriate for the transaction, have been properly used and/or adapted in the Confirmation for the transaction and that the Confirmation has generally been properly drafted, in each case, to reflect the commercial intentions of the parties.<br>
| | {{2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions 8}} |
| This introduction is not part of the Definitions and is not offered as an interpretation of the Definitions. The notices referred to in the Definitions are not required to be in the forms set forth in the Exhibits which will be made available on the ISDA website.<br>

Any term used in a document will, when combined with the name of a party, have meaning in respect of the named party only.<br>

| |
| If {{cddprov|Buyer}} fails to Deliver {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}s as specified in the {{cddprov|Notice of Physical Settlement}} or any {{cddprov|NOPS Amendment Notice}}, as applicable, such failure shall not constitute a breach of agreement, or an event of default in any master agreement governing the {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}.<br>
| |
| Subject to Sections {{cddprov|9.1}} (Partial Cash Settlement Due to Impossibility or Illegality), {{cddprov|9.2}} (Partial Cash Settlement of {{cddprov|Consent Required Loan}}s), {{cddprov|9.3}} (Partial Cash Settlement of {{cddprov|Assignable Loan}}s), {{cddprov|9.4}} (Partial Cash Settlement of Participations) and {{cddprov|9.10}} (Cap on Settlement), the latest of (A) the date that {{cddprov|Buyer}} completes Delivery of the {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}s specified in the {{cddprov|Notice of Physical Settlement}} or any {{cddprov|NOPS Amendment Notice}}, as applicable, (B) the date that {{cddprov|Seller}} completes a buyin pursuant to Section {{cddprov|9.7}} (Buy-in of Bonds Not Delivered) with respect to all Bonds specified in the {{cddprov|Notice of Physical Settlement}} or any {{cddprov|NOPS Amendment Notice}}, as applicable, that {{cddprov|Buyer}} has failed to Deliver (or, if earlier, the latest date all such Bonds cease to exist), (C) the date that alternative delivery pursuant to Section {{cddprov|9.8}} (Alternative Procedures Relating to Loans Not Delivered) has been completed with respect to all Loans specified in the {{cddprov|Notice of Physical Settlement}} or any {{cddprov|NOPS Amendment Notice}}, as applicable, that {{cddprov|Buyer}} has failed to Deliver and (D) the date that alternative delivery pursuant to Section {{cddprov|9.9}} (Alternative Procedures Relating to Assets Not Delivered) has been completed with respect to all Assets specified in the {{cddprov|Notice of Physical Settlement}} or any {{cddprov|NOPS Amendment Notice}}, as applicable, that {{cddprov|Buyer}} has failed to Deliver, shall be deemed to be the Termination Date.<br>
| |
| ::(iii) If an event that would otherwise constitute or give rise to an impossibility or illegality under Section {{cddprov|9.1}} (Partial Cash Settlement Due to Impossibility or Illegality) occurs and would also constitute an event which would entitle a party to terminate such {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}} under a master agreement governing the {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}, it will be governed by Section {{cddprov|9.1}} (Partial Cash Settlement Due to Impossibility or Illegality) and will not entitle a party to terminate such {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}} under a master agreement governing the {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}.<br>
| |
| ::(iv) Either party (the “'''{{cddprov|designator}}'''”) may designate any of its Affiliates (the “'''{{cddprov|designee}}'''”) to Deliver or take Delivery, as the case may be, and otherwise to perform such party’s obligations to Deliver or take Delivery, as the case may be, in respect of a {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}} and the designee may assume such obligations. Such designation shall not relieve the designator of any of its obligations under such {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}. If the designee has performed the obligations of the designator under such {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}, then the designator shall be discharged of its obligations to the other party to the extent of such performance. If, as a result of such designation, (A) it would be illegal due to any applicable law or regulation for the designee to so Deliver or take Delivery, the designator shall not be permitted to designate such designee to Deliver or to take Delivery, or (B) such Delivery would give rise to any Tax, any transaction tax or any loss or cost to the non-designating party, then the designator shall not be permitted to designate such designee to Deliver or to take Delivery unless the non-designating party has received an indemnity acceptable to it from the designating party with respect to such Tax, transaction tax, loss or cost.<br>
| |
| ::(v) Unless otherwise specified in the related Confirmation, any recordation, processing or similar fee reasonably incurred by {{cddprov|Buyer}} and payable to the agent under a Loan in connection with an assignment or novation (where {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}s include {{cddprov|Assignable Loan}}s or {{cddprov|Consent Required Loan}}s) or participation (where {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}s include {{cddprov|Direct Loan Participation}}s) shall be payable by {{cddprov|Buyer}} and {{cddprov|Seller}} equally on the {{cddprov|Delivery Date}} or Latest Permissible {{cddprov|Physical Settlement Date}}, as applicable.<br>
| |
| ::(vi) Notwithstanding any other provision of the {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}}, if any Stamp Tax or transaction tax is payable in connection with the Delivery of {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}s, payment of such Stamp Tax or transaction tax (as applicable) shall be made by the party or parties that would in the ordinary course bear such cost under a contract for purchase of the {{cddprov|Deliverable Obligation}}.<br>
| |
| '''Section {{cddprov|11.3}} No Frustration'''. In the absence of other reasons, a {{cddprov|Credit Derivative Transaction}} will not be considered frustrated, or otherwise void or voidable (whether for mistake or otherwise) solely because:<br>
