Not only a triple negative, but since ISDAs definition of {{isdaprov|Tax}} already contains a negative (being any tax that isn’t a {{isdaprov|Stamp Tax}}) and “{{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}}” is itself often used in the negative (e.g. “a tax which is [[not]] an {{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}}”) — or even ''[[double negative]]'' (e.g. “''other than'' a tax which is not an {{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}}”) in the body of the {{isdama}}. That makes it a '''''sextuple negative'''''. Quite a literary feat.
