Commentary

Note that the 2002 ISDA defaults to GBP or USD where not otherwise specified. This means a 2002 version LFC does not need to specify a Termination Currency.

The Termination Currency concept can be applied to the termination and closeout of single Transactions or groups of Transactions, so it does make sense for it to be "a currency in which payments are due to be made under the relevant Terminated Transaction" - or some such thing.
