Template:M comp disc 2002 ISDA 3(d)

The fabulous Section 3(d) representation, giving one’s counterparty the right to close out should any so-designated representations turn out not to be true. This is sure to occupy an inordinate amount of your negotiation time — in that it occupies any time at all — because you are as likely to be hit in the face by a live flying starfish in the driest part of the Gobi Desert as you are to close out an ISDA because your counterparty is late preparing its annual accounts. But that’s a personal view and you may not rely on it.
