12.6(b) Either party will, upon becoming aware of the occurrence of a Nationalization, Insolvency or Delisting, promptly notify the other party of such event.
12.6(c) For the purpose of determining the consequence of any Nationalization, Insolvency or Delisting:

(i) “Negotiated Close-out” means that the parties may, but are not obliged, to terminate the Transaction on mutually acceptable terms and if the parties do not agree to terminate the Transaction, then it continues on the terms and subject to the conditions then in effect, provided, that any Physically-settled Transaction will, at the election of either party, become a Transaction to which Cash Settlement is applicable, except that if a Scheduled Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day, the Calculation Agent will ignore the provisions of Section 6.6 relating to Disrupted Days and will instead determine its good faith estimate of the Settlement Price or Final Price as of the Valuation Time on that Valuation Date;

(3) a value ascribed to the relevant Shares as determined by the Calculation Agent and, if applicable, equal to the value of the consideration, if any, paid or delivered in respect of such Shares to holders of such Shares at the time of the Extraordinary Event;
(4) a combined interest rate and stock loan rate as specified in the related Confirmation for the period from, and including, the Closing Date to, but excluding, the Expiration Date; and

12.7(c) For any Forward Transaction or Equity Swap Transaction, such Transaction shall be cancelled and the relevant party or parties (as specified below) shall determine the Cancellation Amount in respect of such cancelled Transaction.

(i) In respect of a cancelled Transaction where there is one Determining Party, the Determining Party will calculate the Cancellation Amount and will determine which party will pay such amount.
(ii) In respect of a cancelled Transaction where there are two Determining Parties, each party will calculate a Cancellation Amount and an amount will be payable equal to one-half of the difference between the Cancellation Amount of the party with the higher Cancellation Amount (“X”) and the Cancellation Amount of the party with the lower Cancellation Amount (“Y”) and Y shall pay it to X.

12.9(b) For the purpose of determining the consequence of an Additional Disruption Event:
12.9(b)(i) If “Change in Law” or “Insolvency Filing” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then upon the occurrence of such an event either party may elect to terminate the Transaction upon at least two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice to the other party specifying the date of such termination (or such lesser notice as may be required to comply with the Change in Law), in which event the Transaction will terminate and the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other.
12.9(b)(ii) If “Failure to Deliver” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then such event shall not constitute an Event of Default under the ISDA Master Agreement, but upon the occurrence of such an event, the party required to deliver the relevant Shares (the “Delivering Party”) shall (A) give the other party (the “Receiving Party”) notice that a Failure to Deliver has occurred within one Clearance System Business Day of the relevant Exercise Date in the case of an Option Transaction and at least one Settlement Cycle prior to the Settlement Date in the case of a Forward Transaction or Equity Swap Transaction and (B) deliver on the Settlement Date to the Receiving Party such number of Shares that it can deliver on such date. The Receiving Party’s obligation to make any corresponding payment or delivery to the Delivering Party shall be reduced in proportion to the number of Shares it receives from the Delivering Party. In respect of a European Option or a Forward Transaction, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate the Transaction by giving notice to the Delivering Party and the Transaction will terminate on the date that such notice is effective. The Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an American Option or a Bermuda Option, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the exercised Options by giving notice to the Delivering Party. On the date that such notice is effective, a Transaction consisting of the exercised Options only shall be terminated and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an Equity Swap Transaction, the Receiving Party may then elect to terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the Number of Shares to be Delivered or Number of Baskets to be Delivered, as the case may be, on that Settlement Date by giving notice to the Delivering Party. On the date that such notice is effective, a Transaction consisting of the Number of Shares to be Delivered or Number of Baskets to be Delivered, as the case may be, on that Settlement Date only shall be deemed to have been terminated on such Settlement Date and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction (after consideration of any partial delivery). In respect of an American Option or a Bermuda Option, in each case to which Multiple Exercise is applicable and upon which less than all Options have been exercised or deemed exercised on the relevant Exercise Date, or in respect of an Equity Swap Transaction in relation to which one or more Settlement Dates have not occurred, the Receiving Party may elect within one Settlement Cycle of the Settlement Date on which the Transaction was partially terminated to terminate the remaining Transaction upon two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice to the Delivering Party, in which event the Transaction shall terminate on the date that such notice is effective and the Receiving Party (who shall be the Determining Party) shall determine the Cancellation Amount payable in relation to such terminated Transaction.
12.9(b)(iii) If “Hedging Disruption” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then upon the occurrence of such an event the Hedging Party may elect, while the Hedging Disruption is continuing, to terminate the Transaction, upon at least two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice to the Non-Hedging Party specifying the date of such termination, in which event the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other.
12.9(b)(iv) If “Loss of Stock Borrow” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then upon the occurrence of such an event the Hedging Party may give notice that a Loss of Stock Borrow has occurred to the Non-Hedging Party, who may (A) lend the Hedging Party, subject to the conditions below, Shares in an amount equal to the Hedging Shares at a rate equal to or less than the Maximum Stock Loan Rate or (B) refer the Hedging Party to a Lending Party that will lend the Hedging Party Shares in an amount equal to the Hedging Shares at a rate equal to or less than the Maximum Stock Loan Rate, in each case within two Scheduled Trading Days of receipt of the notice of Loss of Stock Borrow. If neither the Non-Hedging Party nor the Lending Party lends Shares in the amount of the Hedging Shares or a satisfactory Lending Party is not identified within this period, the Hedging Party may give notice that it elects to terminate the Transaction, specifying the date of such termination, which may be the same day that the notice of termination is effective. The Determining Party will then determine the Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other.
12.9(b)(v) If “Increased Cost of Stock Borrow” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then upon the occurrence of such an event the Hedging Party will give prompt notice to the Non-Hedging Party that an Increased Cost of Stock Borrow has occurred and that a Price Adjustment will be made to the Transaction. The Non-Hedging Party shall, within two Scheduled Trading Days of receipt of the notice of Increased Cost of Stock Borrow and corresponding Price Adjustment, notify the Hedging Party that it elects to (A) agree to amend the relevant Transaction to take into account the Price Adjustment, (B) pay the Hedging Party an amount determined by the Calculation Agent that corresponds to the Price Adjustment or (C) terminate the Transaction as of that second Scheduled Trading Day. If such notice is not given by the end of that second Scheduled Trading Day, then the Hedging Party may give notice that it elects to terminate the Transaction, specifying the date of such termination, which may be the same day that the notice of termination is effective. If either party elects to terminate the Transaction, the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other. Within this period, the Non-Hedging Party may, in order to avoid a Price Adjustment or termination with respect to the Transaction, (X) lend the Hedging Party, subject to the conditions below, Shares in an amount equal to the Hedging Shares at a rate equal to or less than the Initial Stock Loan Rate or (Y) refer the Hedging Party to a Lending Party that lends the Hedging Party Shares in an amount equal to the Hedging Shares at a rate equal to or less than the Initial Stock Loan Rate.
12.9(b)(vi) If “Increased Cost of Hedging” is specified in the related Confirmation to be applicable to a Transaction, then upon the occurrence of such an event the Hedging Party will give prompt notice to the Non-Hedging Party that such increased costs have been incurred and that a Price Adjustment will be made to the Transaction. The Non-Hedging Party shall, within two Scheduled Trading Days of receipt of the notice of Increased Cost of Hedging and corresponding Price Adjustment, notify the Hedging Party that it elects to (A) agree to amend the relevant Transaction to take into account the Price Adjustment, (B) pay the Hedging Party an amount determined by the Calculation Agent that corresponds to the Price Adjustment or (C) terminate the Transaction as of that second Scheduled Trading Day. If such notice is not given by the end of that second Scheduled Trading Day, then the Hedging Party may give notice that it elects to terminate the Transaction, specifying the date of such termination, which may be the same day that the notice of termination is effective. If either party elects to terminate the Transaction, the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other.
12.9(b)(vii) If both “Hedging Disruption” and “Loss of Stock Borrow” are specified to be applicable to a Transaction and an event or circumstance that would otherwise constitute or give rise to a Hedging Disruption also constitutes a Loss of Stock Borrow, it will be treated as a Loss of Stock Borrow and will not constitute a Hedging Disruption.
12.9(b)(viii) Any Shares provided by the Non-Hedging Party or the Lending Party, as the case may be, in respect of a Loss of Stock Borrow or Increased Cost of Stock Borrow shall be in book-entry form and freely tradable without any restrictions under relevant law and the lending of such Shares shall be documented under documentation acceptable to the Hedging Party.
12.9(b)(ix) Any Cancellation Amount payable by one party to the other shall be paid by the party to pay such amount not later than three Currency Business Days following the date that notice of the determination by the Determining Party of such amount (denominated in the currency for settlement of the Transaction as determined by the Determining Party) and the party to pay such amount is effective, which notice shall be provided promptly following such determination.
