==Termination Events and Events of Default==
{{newisdamanual|5(b)}}
{{isdaprov|Termination Events}} and {{isdaprov|Events of Default}} under an {{isdama}} are similar in that when they occur to one party (the {{isdaprov|Affected Party}} or {{isdaprov|Defaulting Party}}) the other may terminate outstanding trades under the agreement. A crucial difference between them is that events of default may give rise to third-party default rights (where the relevant {{isdaprov|Cross Default}} extends to derivatives and trading documents) but generally termination events under an ISDA Master Agreement with another dealer will not.
 
Termination events are less likely (although sometimes they do) to trigger third-party defaults; however, they often will trigger termination rights that cut across all agreements with one dealer (i.e., {{isdaprov|Default Under Specified Transaction}}).
 
==Section 5(b) [[2002 ISDA Master]]==

pursuant to clause (vi) below:
