All hail the Determining Party

Note that where an Extraordinary Event occurs, the Determining Party, rather than the Calculation Agent, may be the person called on to calculate a Cancellation Amount. (This is relevant especially where the Calculation Agent is not the Hedging Party, as the Hedging Party will have definite ideas about how to value cancellation vis a vis its own hedge).

Share for Share

Is it just is or did ISDA’s crack drafting squad™ hit the wall on the definition of Share for Share? What do you mean “and (ii) Reverse Merger”? It looks like something is missing, but we think the rather exasperated tone is basically, “a reverse merger is necessarily Share-for-Share so do we really nned to “wrap it round with deemery”, as Büchstein would say? Well, we are jolly well not going to, so see how you like that.”
