12.9(a)(viii)Increased Cost of Stock Borrow”: the rate the Hedging Party incurs to borrow Shares for the Transaction exceeds the Initial Stock Loan Rate;

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.
