There is no equivalent to the {{2002ma}}’s {{isdaprov|Force Majeure Event}} in the {{1992ma}}. You could, and many old-timers do, write an {{isda92prov|Impossibility}} clause was into the {{isda92prov|Schedule}}, which endeavoured to do the same thing. One can incorporate the {{2002ma}}’s {{isdaprov|Force Majeure Event}} into the {{1992ma}} as long as you carry the concept through to its logical conclusion i.e.:

Or you could incorporate the {{2002ma}}’s {{isdaprov|Force Majeure Event}} into the {{1992ma}} as long as you carry the concept through to its logical conclusion i.e.:
*Include a “{{isdaprov|Hierachy of Events}}” to be clear what happens where the same event is both a {{isda92prov|Event of Default}} ''and'' a {{isda92prov|Force Majeure Event}};  
*Include a “{{isdaprov|Hierarchy of Events}}” to be clear what happens where the same event is both a {{isda92prov|Event of Default}} ''and'' a {{isda92prov|Force Majeure Event}};  
*Consider the impact of a deferral on the {{isda92prov|Early Termination Amount}} etc.  
*Consider the impact of a deferral on the {{isda92prov|Early Termination Amount}} etc.  
The concept also impacts the basis of [[close-out]] because the {{2002ma}} requires true [[mid]]s for valuation i.e, not simply the average of each party’s view of the [[Bid-offer spread|bid/offer]] where a {{isda92prov|Force Majeure Event}} (or {{isda92prov|Illegality}}) occurs, which is effectively what you get under the {{1992ma}} with a “Two {{isda92prov|Affected Parties}}” option.
