Template:Isda 5(e) summ

In a nutshell squared: If an {{{{{1}}}|Affected Party}}’s head office is subject to a Force Majeure or {{{{{1}}}|Illegality}}, It can’t be whacked for not performing a branch’s obligations under the Section {{{{{1}}}|10(a)}} rep.

From the “shoot me” department, this multi-line bunker-buster introduced into the 2002 ISDA which, to give it some kind of credit, doesn’t generate a great deal of comment in the course of your average negotiation. That is as likely to be because it is so stupefyingly dull that no one has summoned the fortitude to read it as it is because it is a sensible, prudent allocation of risk.

But here you are, especially for you, the Jolly Contrarian’s Nutshell™ service renders it for you in emperor’s couturier style.
