Talk:Non-Performance Due to Force Majeure and Suspension Event - EFET Allowance Provision

IETA

“Force Majeure” means the occurrence of any event or circumstance, beyond the control of the FM Affected Party, that is not a Suspension Event, and that could not, after using all reasonable efforts, be overcome and which makes it impossible for the FM Affected Party to either (a) deliver the Period Traded Allowances from any Holding Account in any Registry (or if one or more Delivering Party's Holding Accounts are specified, from such Delivering Party's Holding Account(s)) or (b) accept the Period Traded Allowances into the Receiving Party's Holding Account(s), in accordance with the EU ETS. The inability of a Party to perform a relevant delivery or acceptance obligation as a result of it having insufficient Period Traded Allowances in the relevant Holding Account (whether caused by: the low or non-allocation of Allowances from a Member State, non-Member State or Central Administrator; the delay or failure of a Member State or Central Administrator to replace Allowances with Allowances for the subsequent Validity Period; or the failure of that Party to procure sufficient Allowances to meet its delivery obligations) shall not constitute a Force Majeure; provided, however, that this is not an exhaustive list of events which will not constitute a Force Majeure and is provided for the avoidance of doubt only.
