12.2(a)Alternative Obligation”, then except for Reverse Mergers, following the Merger Date:
(i) the relevant New Shares or Other Consideration (as modified by any relevant terms and including any proceeds of any redemption) will be deemed to be the “Shares

(i) adjust the Transaction to account for the economic effect of the Merger Event (excluding changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity of the Shares or the Transaction), or
(ii) if it considers that that could not produce a commercially reasonable result, notify the parties that the Transaction will be terminated, in which case Cancellation and Payment will apply and any necessary payments will be calculated under Section 12.7 (and for Option Transactions, the Calculation Agent must determine the payment as if “Calculation Agent Determination” applied);
12.2(e) If “Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment” is specified then, after the Merger Date, the Calculation Agent will either

12.3(e)Partial Cancellation and Payment”, then the portion of a Share Basket Transaction represented by Affected Shares will be cancelled as of the Merger Date, the amount calculated under Section 12.7 for such Affected Shares will be paid by one party to the other, the Share Basket Transaction will continue with the Basket comprising the remaining Shares, and the Calculation Agent will adjust any terms if necessary to preserve as nearly as practicable the economic terms of the Transaction for the remaining Shares; or
12.2(g)Component Adjustment”, then, where a Merger Event is “Share-for-Combined”, the option chosen for “Share-for-Share” will apply to the New Shares component and the option chosen for “Share-for-Other” will apply to the Other Consideration component (as the Calculation Agent determines).

(ii) if it determines that no adjustment under (i) would produce a commercially reasonable result, notify the parties that the Transaction will terminate and “Cancellation and Payment” will apply and will be calculated under Section 12.7 (for Option Transactions as if “Calculation Agent Determination” applied;
12.3(d) If “Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment (Tender Offers)” is specified then, after the Tender Offer Date, Calculation Agent will either (i) adjust the Transaction to account for the economic effect of the Tender Offer in its determination, or (ii) if that would not produce a commercially reasonable result, terminate the Transaction, in which case “Cancellation and Payment” will under Section 12.7 (and for an Option Transaction, “Calculation Agent Determination” will apply).
12.3(e)Partial Cancellation and Payment”, then the portion of a Share Basket Transaction represented by Affected Shares will be cancelled as of the Tender Offer Date, the amount calculated under Section 12.7 for such Affected Shares will be paid by one party to the other, the Share Basket Transaction will continue with the Basket comprising the remaining Shares, and the Calculation Agent will adjust any terms if necessary to preserve as nearly as practicable the economic terms of the Transaction for the remaining Shares; or
12.3(f)Component Adjustment”, then for a Share-for-Combined Tender Offer:
(i) “Share-for-Share” will apply to the part of the consideration comprising New Shares and

In a normal nutshell:

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 applies and one happens, either party may terminate the Transaction two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice (or less, if required under Change in Law), and the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount.
12.9(b)(ii) If “Failure to Deliver” applies, then a Failure to Deliver will not be an Event of Default but the “Delivering Party” must:
(A) notify the “Receiving Party” that the Failure to Deliver has occurred within one Clearance System Business Day of the Exercise Date (for Option Transactions) and at least one Settlement Cycle prior to the Settlement Date (for Forward Transactions and Equity Swap Transactions; and
(B) deliver to the Receiving Party on the Settlement Date the Shares that it can deliver on such date;
and the Receiving Party’s corresponding payment or delivery obligation to the Delivering Party will be proportionately reduced.
Thereafter:
(I) For European Options and Forward Transactions: The Receiving Party may terminate the remaining Transaction effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the related Cancellation Amount;
(II) For American Options and Bermuda Options: The Receiving Party may terminate that part of the Transaction comprising the exercised but not settled Options effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the related Cancellation Amount;
(III) For Equity Swap Transactions: The Receiving Party may terminate that part of the Transaction consisting of the unsettled deliveries effective immediately by notice to the Delivering Party and must (as Determining Party) determine the Cancellation Amount;
(IV) For unexercised American Options and Bermuda Options to which Multiple Exercise applies, and for Equity Swap Transactions where a Settlement Date has not occurred: The Receiving Party may elect within one Settlement Cycle of the affected Settlement Date to terminate the remainder of the Transaction upon two Scheduled Trading Days’ notice, and must (as Determining Party) determine the Cancellation Amount.
12.9(b)(iii) If “Hedging Disruption” applies and it happens, the Hedging Party may terminate the Transaction on 2 Scheduled Trading Days’ notice, and the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount payable under the Transaction.
12.9(b)(iv) If “Loss of Stock Borrow” applies, then if the Hedging Party notifies the Non-Hedging Party of a Loss of Stock Borrow, the Non-Hedging Party may, within 2 Scheduled Trading Days of notice, lend the Hedging Party the necessary Shares at a rate no greater than the Maximum Stock Loan Rate. If it does not, the Hedging Party may terminate the Transaction on notice and the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount.
12.9(b)(v) If “Increased Cost of Stock Borrow” applies, the Hedging Party may tell the Non-Hedging Party that an Increased Cost of Stock Borrow has happened and that it will make a Price Adjustment to the Transaction.
Within 2 Scheduled Trading Days of that notice the Non-Hedging Party must:
(A) amend the Transaction to make the Price Adjustment,
(B) pay the Hedging Party the Price Adjustment or
(C) terminate the Transaction as of that second Scheduled Trading Day.
Within this period, the Non-Hedging Party may lend the Hedging Party, the necessary Hedging Shares at no more than the Initial Stock Loan Rate.
Absent such an election the Hedging Party may terminate the Transaction. On any termination of the Transaction, the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount.
12.9(b)(vi) If “Increased Cost of Hedging” applies and it occurs, the Hedging Party will so notify the Non-Hedging Party and that it will make a Price Adjustment. Within 2 Scheduled Trading Days the Non-Hedging Party must elect to the Hedging Party either to:
(A) amend the Transaction to cater for the Price Adjustment,
(B) pay the Hedging Party the Price Adjustment or
(C) terminate the Transaction as of that second Scheduled Trading Day. Absent such an election the Hedging Party may terminate the Transaction. On any termination of the Transaction, the Determining Party will determine the Cancellation Amount.
12.9(b)(vii) If both “Hedging Disruption” and “Loss of Stock Borrow” apply and an event happens that could be either, it will be treated as a Loss of Stock Borrow and not a Hedging Disruption.
12.9(b)(viii) Any Shares the Non-Hedging Party or Lending Party provides relating to a Loss of Stock Borrow or Increased Cost of Stock Borrow must be in freely tradable book-entry form and documented under suitable stock lending documentation acceptable to the Hedging Party.
12.9(b)(ix) Any Cancellation Amount must be paid in the Transaction settlement currency no later than three Currency Business Days after the Determining Party’s notice of its determination is effective.
