Section 12.8. Cancellation Amount.

12.8(a)Cancellation Amount” means, with respect to a Determining Party, the amount of the losses or costs of the Determining Party that are or would be incurred under then prevailing circumstances (expressed as a positive number) or gains of the Determining Party that are or would be realized under then prevailing circumstances (expressed as a negative number) in replacing, or in providing for the Determining Party the economic equivalent of, (i) the material terms of the relevant Transaction, including the payments and deliveries by the parties under the ISDA Master Agreement in respect of the relevant Transaction that would, but for the occurrence of the Extraordinary Event, have been required on or after the date that the Transaction is, or is deemed to have been, terminated or cancelled (assuming satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent in the ISDA Master Agreement) and (ii) the option rights of the parties in respect of the relevant Transaction.
12.8(b) Any Cancellation Amount will be determined by the Determining Party (or its agent), which will act in good faith and use commercially reasonable procedures in order to produce a commercially reasonable result. Each Cancellation Amount will be determined as of the date that the Transaction terminated or cancelled or, if that would not be commercially reasonable, as of the date or dates following the date that the Transaction terminated or cancelled as would be commercially reasonable.
12.8(c) In determining a Cancellation Amount, the Determining Party may consider any relevant information, including, without limitation, one or more of the following types of information:
(i) quotations (either firm or indicative) for replacement transactions supplied by one or more third parties that may take into account the current creditworthiness of the Determining Party at the time the quotation is provided and the terms of any relevant documentation, including credit support documentation, between the Determining Party and the third party providing the quotation;
(ii) information consisting of relevant market data in the relevant market supplied by one or more third parties including, without limitation, relevant rates, prices, yields, yield curves, volatilities, spreads, correlations or other relevant market data in the relevant market; or
(iii) information of the types described in (i) or (ii) above from internal sources (including any Affiliates of the Determining Party) if that information is of the same type used by the Determining Party in the regular course of its business for the valuation of similar transactions.
12.8(d) The Determining Party will consider, taking into account the standards and procedures described in this definition, quotations pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(i) above or relevant market data pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(ii) above unless the Determining Party reasonably believes in good faith that such quotations or relevant market data are not readily available or would produce a result that would not satisfy those standards. When considering information described in Section 12.8(c)(i), 12.8(c)(ii) or 12.8(c)(iii) above, the Determining Party may include costs of funding, to the extent costs of funding are not and would not be a component of the other information being utilized. Third parties supplying quotations pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(i) above or market data pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(ii) above may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant markets, end-users of the relevant product, information vendors, brokers and other sources of market information.
12.8(e) Without duplication of amounts calculated based on information described in Section 12.8(c)(i), 12.8(c)(ii) or 12.8(c)(iii) above, or other relevant information, and when it is commercially reasonable to do so, the Determining Party may in addition consider in calculating a Cancellation Amount any loss or cost incurred in connection with its terminating, liquidating or re-establishing any hedge related to such Transaction (or any gain resulting from any of them).
12.8(f)Determining Party” means the party or parties specified as such in the related Confirmation.
12.8(g) Commercially reasonable procedures used in determining a Cancellation Amount may include the following:
(i) application to relevant market data from third parties pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(ii) above or information from internal sources pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(iii) above of pricing or other valuation models that are, at the time of the determination of the Cancellation Amount, used by the Determining Party in the regular course of its business in pricing or valuing transactions between the Determining Party and unrelated third parties that are similar to the relevant Transaction; and
(ii) application of different valuation methods to the relevant Transaction depending on the type, complexity or size of the relevant Transaction.
12.8(a)Cancellation Amount” means, with respect to a Determining Party, the amount of the losses or costs of the Determining Party that are or would be incurred under then prevailing circumstances (expressed as a positive number) or gains of the Determining Party that are or would be realized under then prevailing circumstances (expressed as a negative number) in replacing, or in providing for the Determining Party the economic equivalent of, (i) the material terms of the relevant Transaction, including the payments and deliveries by the parties under the ISDA Master Agreement in respect of the relevant Transaction that would, but for the occurrence of the Extraordinary Event, have been required on or after the date that the Transaction is, or is deemed to have been, terminated or cancelled (assuming satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent in the ISDA Master Agreement) and (ii) the option rights of the parties in respect of the relevant Transaction.
12.8(b) Any Cancellation Amount will be determined by the Determining Party (or its agent), which will act in good faith and use commercially reasonable procedures in order to produce a commercially reasonable result. Each Cancellation Amount will be determined as of the date that the Transaction terminated or cancelled or, if that would not be commercially reasonable, as of the date or dates following the date that the Transaction terminated or cancelled as would be commercially reasonable.

(ii) information consisting of relevant market data in the relevant market supplied by one or more third parties including, without limitation, relevant rates, prices, yields, yield curves, volatilities, spreads, correlations or other relevant market data in the relevant market; or
(iii) information of the types described in (i) or (ii) above from internal sources (including any Affiliates of the Determining Party) if that information is of the same type used by the Determining Party in the regular course of its business for the valuation of similar transactions.
12.8(d) The Determining Party will consider, taking into account the standards and procedures described in this definition, quotations pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(i) above or relevant market data pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(ii) above unless the Determining Party reasonably believes in good faith that such quotations or relevant market data are not readily available or would produce a result that would not satisfy those standards. When considering information described in Section 12.8(c)(i), 12.8(c)(ii) or 12.8(c)(iii) above, the Determining Party may include costs of funding, to the extent costs of funding are not and would not be a component of the other information being utilized. Third parties supplying quotations pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(i) above or market data pursuant to Section 12.8(c)(ii) above may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant markets, end-users of the relevant product, information vendors, brokers and other sources of market information.
