If it's a beast under 2002, it's worse under the (ill fated) [[ISDA 2011 Equity Derivative Definitions]]. Quoth [[Clifford Chance]]:
 
:“This provision has been amended heavily and now runs to over 10 pages. It sets out different optional methods of calculating the transaction value, rather than following a purely replacement value approach (as under the 2002 Definitions) which was considered not to be appropriate in all cases. Greater detail is also provided as to how and when the {{eqderivprov|Cancellation Amount}} is to be determined, what data is to be taken into account and how losses/gains resulting from hedge close-outs are allocated.”
