These failures are designed to be caught by the {{gmslaprov|Mini-Closeout}} section, which gives the party expecting the redelivery a self-help, pre-default, remedy of [[Buy-In - GMSLA Provision|buying in]], liquidating {{gmslaprov|Security}} or {{gmslaprov|Collateral}} that it holds, valuing the offsetting positions and calling for a cash payment. A failure to make that payment would be an {{gmslaprov|Event of Default}} (under {{gmslaprov|10.1(c)}}).
