Annex 4
1 Definitions and Provisions
1.1 Documentation

1.1.1 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions


The definitions and provisions contained in the (i) 2003 ISDA Credit
Derivatives Definitions as supplemented by each of the May 2003
Supplement and the 2005 Matrix Supplement to the 2003 ISDA Credit
Derivatives Definitions (as so supplemented, the 2003 Definitions) or (ii)
2014 ISDA Credit Definitions (as supplemented, the 2014 Definitions and
together with the 2003 Definitions the Credit Definitions), each as
published by ISDA, are incorporated through the Contractual Definitions field
into any CDS Transaction entered by parties into MarkitWire and applied to
any references therein.

1.1.2 ISDA Master Agreement


Where ISDA has been selected by the parties as the Master Agreement Type
on the General Terms Template page, an ISDA Master Agreement governs
each Transaction. Each User agrees to each of the following provisions for
the benefit of MarkitWire and each relevant MarkitWire Participant.

1.1.3 Default Master Agreement


In the event that a particular ISDA Master Agreement is not designated as
governing a Transaction or if the designated Master Agreement does not exist
or cannot be used for such Transaction (a No Designated Master Agreement
Trade), and subject to the parties to that Transaction not having agreed
otherwise, the User hereby agrees that:

(a) the No Designated Master Agreement Trade constitutes a Transaction and


the Trade Affirmation for that No Designated Master Agreement Trade
constitutes a Confirmation (subject to Section 2.1) as referred to in the
Default Master Agreement (as defined below);

(b) if the User has entered into one or more ISDA Master Agreements with that
MarkitWire Participant, the Default Master Agreement shall be the most
recently dated applicable ISDA Master Agreement between them relevant
to that type of Transaction and any Confirmation entered into MarkitWire
since the date of such agreement shall supplement, form a part of, and be
subject to such agreement;

(c) if the User has not entered into any ISDA Master Agreement with the
MarkitWire Participant, the User and the MarkitWire Participant agree to use
their reasonable efforts promptly to negotiate, execute and deliver an ISDA
Master Agreement between them. Until the User and the MarkitWire
Participant execute and deliver the ISDA Master Agreement, the Trade
Affirmation for the No Designated Master Agreement Trade, the Trade

Annex 4
terms of that Trade shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to, an
agreement in the form of the ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version). The ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version) shall be the Default Master Agreement and will apply
as if the User and the MarkitWire Participant had executed an agreement in
such form (but without any schedule thereto except for the election of
English law as the governing law or the laws of the State of New York
without reference to choice of law doctrine where both parties are duly
organised and validly existing under such law by its organisation or
incorporation, or unless the parties expressly and specifically state
otherwise in writing) with US dollars as the Termination Currency on the
date of the first No Designated Master Agreement Trade between the User
and the MarkitWire Participant. In the event of any inconsistency between
the provisions of the Default Master Agreement and the Trade Affirmation,
the Trade Affirmation prevails for the purposes of that No Designated
Master Agreement Trade; and

(d) in the event that the parties later negotiate, execute and deliver an
agreement in the form of the ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version) such agreement shall, following execution govern
any Transactions between the parties until such time as the parties enter
into a different or replacement ISDA Master Agreement and agree that such
ISDA Master Agreement is to govern such Transactions.

1.1.4 Credit Support


Where an ISDA Master Agreement has been executed by the parties and a
Credit Support Document such as a Credit Support Annex has also been
executed, such Credit Support Document will also apply in respect of
Transactions entered into via MarkitWire in accordance with its terms.

1.2 Manual Confirmation

For each bilaterally affirmed CDS Transaction submitted by the parties under the
Dealer-to-Dealer Load Service, the End User Dealer Affirmation Service or the
Novation Affirmation Service, the parties agree to produce the Confirmation manually
or that the Confirmation is performed outside the MarkitWire system (e.g. on another
automated confirmation and matching system). For such CDS Transactions, the
electronic record of the Transaction details should be treated as being for information
purposes only and normal post trade confirmation procedures should be applied by
the User or End User.

Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Trade Communications


relating to a Transaction are initiated by a Broker using the Broker Load Services,
then the Broker Trade Affirmation, the Trade Affirmation or the Broker Load Trade
and any resulting Trade Affirmation that is generated prior to matching by the User or
End User and its counterparty shall not represent a Trade Affirmation agreed by the
User or End User and its counterparty, but shall represent a notice of receipt that
should be treated as for informational purposes only; provided that if such Trade
Affirmation is submitted for the Reporting Service or Clearing Service as described in
the User Terms or the Organized Trading Venue Confirmation Service as described

Annex 4
in the MarkitWire Provisions then the Trade Affirmation represents a confirmation for
purposes of the applicable Master Agreement.

1.3 Document Hierarchy


The hierarchy of the documents governing Transactions entered into MarkitWire in
order of precedence is as follows:

1. The Trade Affirmation sets out the economic terms of each individual
Transaction. Therefore the Trade Affirmation is first in the hierarchy and
prevail over the other documents.

2. These MarkitWire Provisions set out how the 2003 or 2014 Definitions, as
applicable, are incorporated within the MarkitWire system The MarkitWire
Provisions do not modify the meaning of any ISDA defined terms or provisions
with the following exceptions:

i. Where the Credit Event Occurrence Timezone field contains the identifier of a
Business Centre, the selection indicates that the Credit Event Occurrence
Timezone will be the local time applicable in the Business Centre specified.
As such, references to Greenwich Mean Time in Section 3.3 of the 2003
ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions should be replaced with references to
local time applicable in the Business Centre specified; and

ii. Where a Physical Settlement Period Type of Capped has been selected
(see Settlement Terms Template page), the provisions of Section 8.6 of the
2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions apply but are modified such that in
no event will the Physical Settlement Period exceed the number of days
specified in the Physical Settlement Period Days field on the Settlement
Terms Template page.

iii. Certain Obligation(s) of certain Reference Entities shall be Excluded


Obligations for the purposes of the CDS Transaction as defined in this
Annex.

The MarkitWire Provisions may, however:

(a) reduce or expand the number of choices available to the User from the full
range of choices as specified in the Credit Definitions to a number of choices
which are supported by MarkitWire.

(b) explain how certain Credit Definitions defined terms and provisions are
determined for the purposes of Transactions.

In the event of any inconsistency between the MarkitWire Provisions and the
Contractual Definitions other than as described above, the Contractual Definitions
will prevail.

3. The applicable Master Agreement is the agreement entered into by the


parties. It sets out the relationship between the parties in respect of the Credit
Derivative Transactions and prevails over the User Terms or Service
Operating Procedures, as applicable, in the event of any inconsistency.

Annex 4
4. The User Terms or Service Operating Procedures, as applicable, set out the
relationship between the parties using MarkitWire. The User Terms or
Service Operating Procedures, as applicable, are generic and apply to all
parties; therefore they are last in the document hierarchy applicable to
Transactions entered into MarkitWire.

1.4 Counterparty Names


Counterparty Entity names that are shown on the Main Template page (Section 3.1)
state the relevant legal name of MarkitWire Participants. Each authorised employee
has authority to act on behalf of that MarkitWire Participant in accordance with the
User Terms.

The fields shall also specify the particular Branch, if any, through which the
MarkitWire Participant is acting. Where an authorised employee is able to deal on
behalf of more than one MarkitWire Participant, the authorised employee has the
option to select the relevant name from a list set up and maintained by the
administrator.

Where the MarkitWire Participant through which the authorised employee is acting
has Branches, the User is required to ensure that both the full legal name of the legal
entity and the Branch are displayed on the Main Template page. This will be
effected through appropriate User administration configuration.

1.5 Reference Entity, Reference Obligation and


Excluded Obligation Data
MarkitWire will allow, subject to appropriate configuration and permissioning,
authorised employees to access CUSIP-linked MIP codes provided through the
Mark-it Pairs and Mark-it Entities reference data (RED) services provided by
Markit Group Ltd.

Users and End Users should note that access to this data on the MarkitWire System
is only provided once suitable agreement has been reached between the User and
Markit Group Ltd, and such agreement has been communicated to MarkitWire by
Markit Group Ltd Access to the foregoing data may be terminated by MarkitWire at
any time.

MarkitWire will allow, subject to appropriate configuration and permissioning,


authorised employees to access other information as they are provided by the User
or by any other third party through databases on the MarkitWire System, from time to
time.

The User or End User agrees that the foregoing data is made available for its
internal use only and that the User or End User is prohibited from re-distributing,
transferring or disclosing any of the foregoing data to any third party, in whole or
part, in any form or by any means, except as specifically permitted by the data
provider.

MarkitWire makes no representations or warranties as to the suitability of this data


for any particular CDS Transaction and the User agrees that MarkitWire shall have

Annex 4
no liability whatsoever for any errors, omissions or inaccuracies contained within the
RED reference data or any other data on the MarkitWire System.

No third party data provider (including without limitation Markit Group Ltd) make any
representation or warranty as to the suitability of the data for any particular CDS
Transaction. The User or End User further agrees that no third party data provider
(including without limitation Markit Group Ltd) makes any representations or
warranties as to, or shall have any liability whatsoever whether in contract, tort
(including, but not limited to, negligence) or otherwise (i) in relation to, the quality,
fitness for purpose, completeness or accuracy of the data, (ii) for any errors,
omissions or inaccuracies contained within the RED reference data or any other data
on the MarkitWire System or (iii) for any loss or damage arising out of or in
connection with the use of the data or any indirect or consequential loss or loss of
profits, business, revenue or contracts. In addition, the User agrees that it is subject
to any legends, disclaimers, and notices appearing from time to time in the foregoing
data. The User or End User agrees to extend rights under the Contracts (Rights of
Third Parties) Act 1999 to the relevant third party as required to allow the relevant
third party to utilize this provision.

At all times it remains the responsibility of the User to ensure that the values
contained within each field on each Template page are consistent with the
authorised employees intentions with respect to the CDS transaction.

1.5.1 Reference Entity


Reference Entity names that are shown on the Main Template page and RE/RO
Template page state the relevant full legal name of the Reference Entity.

Where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference Entity Name


and the RED Identifier, the (Proposed) Reference Entity Name will take
precedence.

1.5.2 Reference Obligation


Reference Obligation identifiers that are shown on the Main Template page and
RE/RO Template page show the appropriate CUSIP or ISIN code for the
Reference Obligation.

Where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference Obligation


Identifier Type/Value combination and the RED Identifier, the (Proposed)
Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination will take precedence.

Furthermore, where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference


Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination and the RED Identifier, the
(Proposed) Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination will take precedence.

1.5.3 Excluded Obligations


If the Reference Entity is the Republic of Hungary, the Additional Provisions for
the Republic of Hungary published on August 13, 2004 on ISDAs website,
www.isda.org, are automatically incorporated into the CDS Transaction.

Annex 4
If the Reference Entity is the Russian Federation, the Additional Provisions for
the Russian Federation published on August 13, 2004 on ISDAs website,
www.isda.org, are automatically incorporated into the CDS Transaction.

1.6 Trade Date and Scheduled Termination Date

1.6.1 Trade Date


The relevant Trade Date of any Transaction entered into MarkitWire shall be the
date when a complete CDS Transaction is first agreed. In the event that the
parties amend a Transaction the Trade Date shall not change.

1.6.2 Scheduled Termination Date


Unless indicated on the General Terms Template page (Section 3.2) the final
Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Period will end on, and include, the earlier to occur
of the Scheduled Termination Date and the Event Determination Date and the
Scheduled Termination Date shall not be subject to adjustment in accordance
with any Business Day Convention.

In the event that the Adjust Scheduled Termination Date Indicator (General
Terms Page (Section 3.2)) has been Ticked, the Scheduled Termination Date will
be adjusted in accordance with the Business Day Convention and Business Days
as specified on the General Terms Template page (Section 3.2).

1.7 Calculation Agent

1.7.1 Calculation Agent for a CDS Transaction


The Calculation Agent for the purposes of a CDS Transaction shall be
determined by reference to the Calculation Agent field (General Terms Template
page), selection contained therein identifying which of the parties shall assume
the role of Calculation Agent.

1.8 Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods


The Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods for a CDS Transaction entered into
MarkitWire are determined using a number of parameters held within the CDS
Transaction Template, namely:

the Start Date and the End Date on the Main Template page (Section 3.1);
the Fixed Payment Frequency (Section 3.1);
the Stub At field value on the Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3);
the Stub Type field value (Section 3.3);
the Month End Rolls Indicator (Section 3.3); and
the Adjust Scheduled Termination Date Indicator stated on the General Terms
Template page (Section 3.2).

Annex 4
For MarkitWire purposes, the Fixed Rate Payer Payment Dates fall on the last day of
each relevant Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Period (and on the Upfront Fee Payment
Dates, if applicable) provided that, if an Event Determination Date occurs, the earlier
of the Termination Date and the first Settlement Date with respect to the Credit Event
to which such Event Determination Date relates, shall be the final Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date.

Where the Term of the CDS Transaction is an integer multiple of the Fixed Payment
Frequency period then Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall apply:
the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be each date falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period End Date,
starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the Effective
Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2. For example:

Start Date: 20 June 2014


End Date: 20 June 2019
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
In the above example Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall apply
because the Term is exactly 5 years which divides evenly into 3 month periods with
no remainder, and the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be the 20th day (the
Roll Day, see Section 3.3) of each month of March, June, September, and
December from, and including, 20 September 2014 to, and including, 20 June 2019.

If the terms of the above example were changed to either:


Start Date: 13 May 2014
End Date: 20 June 2019
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
or:

Start Date: 20 June 2014


End Date: 1 June 2019
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
then Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall not apply. In both cases,
the Term of the CDS Transaction is not an exact integer multiple of the Fixed
Payment Frequency period and, therefore, a Stub Period is deemed to exist.

For any CDS Transaction entered into MarkitWire, a Stub Period may only exist at
the beginning or the end of the CDS Transaction, but not both.

1.9 Determination of Stub Periods


A Stub Period exists if the Term of the CDS Transaction is not an integer multiple
of the Fixed Payment Frequency period. If the day of the month of the End Date
is different to the day of the month of the Start Date then a Stub Period will also
exist except where:

a) Month End Rolls (Section 3.3) have been selected and the Start Date falls on
or after the last Business Day of the month and the End Date is the last calendar
day of the month.

Annex 4
b) Month End Rolls have not been selected, but due to fewer days occurring in
the End Date month compared to the Start Date month, the day of the month of
the Start Date does not have a numerical equivalent in the End Date month but
the End Date is still the last calendar day of the month.

Any applicable Stub Period relevant to a CDS Transaction will be the first Fixed
Rate Payer Calculation Period at the start of the CDS Transaction when the value
in the Stub At field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Start.
Conversely, the Stub Period will be the last Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Period
at the end of the CDS Transaction when the value in the Stub At field is End.

IF THE STUB PERIOD IS AT START OF THE CDS TRANSACTION

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Short:

The Stub Period will be short when the MarkitWire system determines that a Stub
Period is applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main
Template page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the
Stub Type field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Short. In
this case:

Subtract multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period from the End Date
until subtracting one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a
date earlier than the Effective Date and this will identify the end date of the Stub
Period (the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date). The end date of the
Stub Period is displayed in the First Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date field on the
Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the Start of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Short, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(i) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Scheduled Termination Date without, for the purpose of determining the
calendar number of the Scheduled Termination Date, having regard to any
Business Day Convention applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section
3.3), falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed
Rate Payer Period End Date, starting on the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date and ending in accordance with Section 1.8;

(ii) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting the month of the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date and ending in accordance with Section 1.8.

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Long:

The Stub Period will be long when the MarkitWire system determines that a Stub
Period is applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main
Template page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the
Stub Type field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Long. In
this case:

Annex 4
Subtract multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period from the End Date
until subtracting one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a
date earlier than the Start Date and then add one Fixed Payment Frequency
period to ascertain the end date of the Stub Period (the First Regular Fixed Rate
Payer Payment Date). The end date of the Stub Period is displayed in the First
Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments Template page
(Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the Start of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Long, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(i) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Scheduled Termination Date without, for the purpose of determining the
calendar number of the Scheduled Termination Date, having regard to any
Business Day Convention applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section
3.3), falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed
Rate Payer Period End Date, starting on the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date and ending in accordance with Section 1.8;

(ii) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting the month of the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date and ending in accordance with Section 1.8.

IF THE STUB PERIOD IS AT END OF THE CDS TRANSACTION

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Short:

The Stub Period will be short when the system determines that a Stub Period is
applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main Template
page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the Stub Type
field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Short. In this case:

Add multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period to the Effective Date until
adding one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a date later
than the End Date and this will identify the start date of the Stub Period (the Last
Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date). The start date of the Stub Period is
displayed in the Last Regular Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments
Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the End of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Short, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(i) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Effective Date without, for the purpose of determining the calendar number
of the Effective Date, having regard to any Business Day Convention
applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section 3.3), falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency
period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular Fixed Rate
Payer Payment Date;

10

Annex 4
(ii) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Date, starting the month of the date falling one Fixed Payment
Frequency period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular
Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date;

(iii) and (whether or not Month End Rolls is selected), the Scheduled
Termination Date;

unless an Event Determination Date occurs in which case the last Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date shall be such Event Determination Date.

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Long:

The Stub Period will be long when the system determines that a Stub Period is
applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main Template
page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the Stub Type
field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Long. In this case:

Add multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency to the Effective Date until adding
one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a date later than the
End Date and then subtract one Fixed Payment Frequency period to ascertain
the start date of the Stub Period (the Last Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date). The start date of the Stub Period is displayed in the Last Regular
Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the End of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Long, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(iv) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Effective Date without, for the purpose of determining the calendar number
of the Effective Date, having regard to any Business Day Convention
applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section 3.3), falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency
period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular Fixed Rate
Payer Payment Date;

(v) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Date, starting the month of the date falling one Fixed Payment
Frequency period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular
Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date;

(vi) and (whether or not Month End Rolls is selected), the Scheduled
Termination Date;

unless an Event Determination Date occurs in which case the last Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date shall be such Event Determination Date.

If, as a result of the application of provisions set out in this Annex, the Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date which is calculated does not exist (i.e. the Roll Day is

11

Annex 4
expressed to have a greater numerical value than that of the last day of the
relevant calendar month), that Fixed Rate Payer Period End Date shall be
deemed to be the last calendar day of the month in question.

All Fixed Rate Payer Payment Dates shall be adjusted in accordance with the
Business Centres and Business Day Conventions applicable to the CDS
Transaction (see Section 3.2).

1.10 Cancellations
Parties can agree to cancel a Transaction entered into MarkitWire as set out in the
Cancellation Fee Template page.

For the purposes of MarkitWire the date on which the parties agree to end their
obligations under the Transaction is the Cancellation Effective Date and is specified
in the Cancellation Effective field on the Cancellation Template page. Any
Cancellation Fee due in respect of such cancellation will be paid on the Date as
stated on the Cancellation Fee Template page. If the parties select Manual
Confirmation as applying to the cancellation of a Transaction, the parties agree that
a manual Confirmation needs to be created and executed in respect of the
cancellation.

Unless the parties agree otherwise, for example in the case of a novation, the
cancelled Transaction shall be terminated and cancelled with effect from and
including the Cancellation Effective Date and all rights, duties, claims and obligations
of the parties there under shall be released and discharged with effect from and
including the Cancellation Effective Date without prejudice to any rights, duties,
claims and obligations which arose prior to and on the Cancellation Effective Date.
The parties shall still be liable to make any payments that are due and payable under
the Transaction on the relevant Cancellation Effective Date. In addition, the date
and method of payments due, where applicable, between the Cancellation Effective
Date and the Date that the Cancellation Fee is due to be paid on shall be subject to
negotiation between the parties. The parties shall also be liable for any Cancellation
Fee that is due and payable on such Date.

1.11 Amendments
Parties can agree to amend a Transaction entered into MarkitWire. The date on
which they agree to amend their rights and obligations on the Transaction is the
Amendment Effective Date which is specified in the Amendment Effective field on
the Additional Template page. Any additional payments due in respect of such
amendment shall be made on the Date relevant to that additional payment stated on
the Additional Payment Template page.

The amended Transaction shall be amended with effect from and including the
Amendment Effective Date and all rights, duties, claims and obligations of the parties
thereunder shall be amended with effect from and including the Amendment
Effective Date without prejudice to any rights, duties, claims and obligations, which
arose prior to and on the Amendment Effective Date.

The parties will still be liable to make any payments that are due and payable under
the Transaction up to and including the relevant Amendment Effective Date pursuant

12

Annex 4
to the terms of the Transaction prior to the amendment. The parties shall also be
liable to make any payments under the Transaction that are due and payable after
the relevant Amendment Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the amended
Transaction and liable for any additional payment that is due and payable as a result
of the amendment.

1.11.1 Legal Entity Amendments


During the amendment process parties will be able, subject to bilateral
agreement, to amend both their own legal entity and the legal entity of the other
party to the Transaction, in the event that one or other of the legal entities had
been incorrectly selected. In each case the list of available legal entities will be
restricted to the relevant legal entities for that User. Unless explicitly agreed
otherwise between the parties, legal entity changes for the purposes of
MarkitWire will be regarded as amendments, not novations or assignments.
Following any such amendment, the original details of the Transaction will be
superseded and replaced in all respects by the revised Transaction details.

1.12 Exits

Parties can agree to indicate in the MarkitWire system their intention to terminate or
modify the terms of a Transaction outside of the MarkitWire system. This intention is
identified through the use of the Contract State (See Section 3.1 Main Contract
State) of Exit. The indication of any such mutual intent will be recorded on the
MarkitWire system but by itself such indication will have no effect on the legal status
of the Trade Affirmation.

1.13 Introducing Broker Relationship


Within the MarkitWire system, it is possible to capture and reflect an introducing
broker relationship between the legal entities within a bank.

Each party is able to insert their own wording to reflect the legal entity that is bound
to the Transaction and the legal entity that is acting as introducing broker. Where an
introducing broker relationship has been defined within the system, that party to the
Transaction is represented in accordance with the wording entered by the relevant
party. For example:

Legal Entity A (introduced by Legal Entity B acting as agent).

In this case, Legal Entity A is the legal entity that is bound to the Transaction and
Legal Entity B is the legal entity that is acting as introducing broker. In this regard
Legal Entity A has authorized Legal Entity B, inter alia, to negotiate and enter into
Transactions on its behalf, and additionally to issue and receive, on its behalf,
affirmations in respect of such Transactions.

Additionally, Legal Entity A understands, acknowledges and agrees that such


Transactions shall be entered into in the name of Legal Entity A and for its account
and risk, to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if Legal Entity A
had entered into such Transactions directly.

13

Annex 4
14

Annex 4
2 Transactions Covered
In MarkitWire Users and End Users are able to record vanilla single name credit
default swap Transactions (CDS Transactions).

References to a CDS Transaction shall be deemed to be references to a Credit


Derivative Transaction as defined in the applicable ISDA definitions.

15

Annex 4
3 MarkitWire Screen Template Definitions and
Provisions
This Section defines in detail the terms contained within the relevant Templates.

Where the Product Type selected is CDS, the User or End User is required to
instigate a search of approved data sources (permissioned by User) to populate the
Ref Entity Name, Jurisdiction and Region fields on the Compose New Deal screen.

Searches can be effected on a number of fields, however ALL returned options are
drawn from data sources approved for that authorised employee. Having selected a
Reference Entity (RE) (without a Reference Obligation (RO)) or Reference
Entity/Reference Obligation (RE/RO) pair, the Currency and Docs (Docs Type)
fields on the Compose New Deal screen are defaulted based on this selection.
Specifically, the Currency and Docs fields are populated based on the Reference
Entity Type and the Reference Entity Regions. The Defs field will default to 2014
ISDA Credit.
The Tenor field is defaulted to the value 5Y. This value can be changed by the
authorised employee making a selection from a drop down list of choices.

Note that the values for Currency, Docs and Defs on the Compose New Deal screen
can be overwritten by the authorised employee. Typically:

The Defs field will default to 2014 ISDA Credit however the authorised employee
can select 2003 ISDA Credit or 2006 ISDA if required;

The Docs field will default to a value determined from the combined values of the
Reference Entity Type and Region associated with the Reference Entity within
the approved data source from which the Reference Entity was derived. The
authorised employee is able to select an alternative value should this be
appropriate to the CDS Transaction; and

The Currency field will default to a value determined by the Reference Entity
Type and the Region associated with the Reference Entity within the approved
data source from which the Reference Entity was derived. The authorised
employee is able to select an alternative value should this be appropriate to the
CDS Transaction.

The values for Currency, Docs and Defs on the Compose New Deal screen drive the
population of the default values for the Screen Terms on each Template page as set
out in Schedule 2 to this Annex.

Where the authorised employee elects to change the value of any of the Currency,
Docs and Defs fields on the Compose New Deal screen, MarkitWire will not prevent
such action nor in any way validate whether such action is appropriate. It is the
responsibility of the User or End User to ensure that the values contained within
each field on each Template page are consistent with the authorised employees
intention with respect to the relevant CDS Transaction.

3.10 Clearing
With the exception of Bilateral Clearing House field, all other fields on this template
page are for informational purposes only.
Within the MarkitWire system, it is possible to flag a trade to be sent to clear through
a link with an approved Clearing House supported by MarkitWire and designated as
applicable by the parties (each, a Designated Clearing House). Unless the parties
have specified a Bilateral Clearing House, a Transaction will only be eligible to be
sent to the Designated Clearing House if all eligibility criteria is met and both parties
to the Transaction have indicated their mutual intent by selecting the same
Designated Clearing House and specifying "Yes" in Send For Clearing; provided
that, parties are free to agree outside of MarkitWire appropriate clearing treatment of
the Transaction regardless of any eligibility to clear or indicated desire to clear on
behalf of either party within the MarkitWire system.
Within the MarkitWire system, it will be possible to flag a trade as eligible for
Frontloading under the EMIR requirements.
The MarkitWire system will be updated to support the clearing deadlines and
frontloading deadlines which are yet to be finalized under EMIR. From the
Frontloading start date for Category 1 entities the MarkitWire system will calculate if
eligibility criteria are met and flag the trade accordingly. Until these deadlines are
finalized MarkitWire will not determine a value for the Frontloading field. The parties
will have the opportunity to override the MarkitWire system determination.
If a Transaction flagged as Frontloading and required to be cleared under EMIR is
not cleared by the clearing deadlines, the ISDA Frontloading Additional Termination
Event Amendment terms as agreed by the parties will be incorporated to the Master
Agreement if a bilateral agreement is signed by the parties to a Transaction.

Annex 4
4 MarkitWire Default Values and Further
Provisions
4.1 ISDA Master Agreement
Where ISDA has been selected by the parties as the Master Agreement Type on the
General Terms Template page (Section 3.2), an ISDA Master Agreement governs
each Transaction. Each User agrees to each of the following provisions for the
benefit of MarkitWire and each relevant MarkitWire Participant.

4.1.1 Default Master Agreement


In the event that a particular ISDA Master Agreement is not designated as
governing a Transaction or if the designated Master Agreement does not exist or
cannot be used for such Transaction (a No Designated Master Agreement
Trade), and subject to the parties to that Transaction not having agreed
otherwise, the User hereby agrees that:

(a) the No Designated Master Agreement Trade constitutes a Transaction and


the Trade Affirmation for that No Designated Master Agreement Trade
constitutes a Confirmation (subject to Section 2.1) as referred to in the
Default Master Agreement (as defined below);

(b) if the User has entered into one or more ISDA Master Agreements with that
MarkitWire Participant, the Default Master Agreement shall be the most
recently dated applicable ISDA Master Agreement between them relevant
to that type of Transaction and any Confirmation entered into MarkitWire
since the date of such agreement shall supplement, form a part of, and be
subject to such agreement;

(c) if the User has not entered into any ISDA Master Agreement with the
MarkitWire Participant, the User and the MarkitWire Participant agree to use
their reasonable efforts promptly to negotiate, execute and deliver an ISDA
Master Agreement between them. Until the User and the MarkitWire
Participant execute and deliver the ISDA Master Agreement, the Trade
Affirmation for the No Designated Master Agreement Trade, the Trade
terms of that Trade shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to, an
agreement in the form of the ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version). The ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version) shall be the Default Master Agreement and will apply
as if the User and the MarkitWire Participant had executed an agreement in
such form (but without any schedule thereto except for the election of
English law as the governing law or the laws of the State of New York
without reference to choice of law doctrine where both parties are duly
organised and validly existing under such law by its organisation or
incorporation, or unless the parties expressly and specifically state
otherwise in writing) with US dollars as the Termination Currency on the
date of the first No Designated Master Agreement Trade between the User
and the MarkitWire Participant. In the event of any inconsistency between
the provisions of the Default Master Agreement and the Trade Affirmation,

79

Annex 4
the Trade Affirmation prevails for the purposes of that No Designated
Master Agreement Trade; and

(d) in the event that the parties later negotiate, execute and deliver an
agreement in the form of the ISDA Master Agreement (1992 Multicurrency-
Cross Border version) such agreement shall, following execution govern
any Transactions between the parties until such time as the parties enter
into a different or replacement ISDA Master Agreement and agree that such
ISDA Master Agreement is to govern such Transactions.

4.1.2 Credit Support


Where an ISDA Master Agreement has been executed by the parties and a Credit
Support Document such as a Credit Support Annex has also been executed, such
Credit Support Document will also apply in respect of Transactions entered into via
MarkitWire in accordance with its terms.

4.2 Counterparty Names


Counterparty Entity names that are shown on the Main Template page (Section 3.1)
state the relevant legal name of MarkitWire Participants. Each authorised employee
has authority to act on behalf of that MarkitWire Participant in accordance with the
User Terms.

The fields shall also specify the particular Branch, if any, through which the
MarkitWire Participant is acting. Where an authorised employee is able to deal on
behalf of more than one MarkitWire Participant, the authorised employee has the
option to select the relevant name from a list set up and maintained by the
administrator.

Where the MarkitWire Participant through which the authorised employee is acting
has Branches, the User is required to ensure that both the full legal name of the legal
entity and the Branch are displayed on the Main Template page. This will be
effected through appropriate User administration configuration.

4.3 Reference Entity, Reference Obligation and Excluded


Obligation Data
MarkitWire will allow, subject to appropriate configuration and permissioning,
authorised employees to access CUSIP-linked MIP codes provided through the
Mark-it Pairs and Mark-it Entities reference data (RED) services

MarkitWire makes no representations or warranties as to the suitability of this data


for any particular CDS Transaction and the User agrees that MarkitWire shall have
no liability whatsoever for any errors, omissions or inaccuracies contained within the
RED reference data or any other data on the MarkitWire System.

No third party data provider (including without limitation Markit Group Ltd) make any
representation or warranty as to the suitability of the data for any particular CDS
Transaction. The User further agrees that no third party data provider (including
without limitation Markit Group Ltd) makes any representations or warranties as to,
or shall have any liability whatsoever whether in contract, tort (including, but not
limited to, negligence) or otherwise (i) in relation to, the quality, fitness for purpose,
completeness or accuracy of the data, (ii) for any errors, omissions or inaccuracies
contained within the RED reference data or any other data on the MarkitWire System
or (iii) for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with the use of the data
or any indirect or consequential loss or loss of profits, business, revenue or
contracts. In addition, the User agrees that it is subject to any legends, disclaimers,
and notices appearing from time to time in the foregoing data. The User agrees to
extend rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to the relevant
third party as required to allow the relevant third party to utilize this provision.

At all times it remains the responsibility of the User to ensure that the values
contained within each field on each Template page are consistent with the
authorised employees intentions with respect to the CDS transaction.

4.3.1 Reference Entity

and RE/RO Template page (Section 3.8) state the relevant full legal name of the
Reference Entity.

Where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference Entity Name


and the RED Identifier, the (Proposed) Reference Entity Name will take
precedence.

4.3.2 Reference Obligation


Reference Obligation identifiers that are shown on the Main Template page
(Section 3.1) and RE/RO Template page (Section 3.8) show the appropriate
CUSIP or ISIN code for the Reference Obligation.

Where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference Obligation


Identifier Type/Value combination and the RED Identifier, the (Proposed)
Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination will take precedence.

Furthermore, where there is a contradiction between the (Proposed) Reference


Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination and the RED Identifier, the
(Proposed) Obligation Identifier Type/Value combination will take precedence.

81

Annex 4
4.3.3 Excluded Obligations

For MarkitWire purposes, the Fixed Rate Payer Payment Dates fall on the last day of
each relevant Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Period (and on the Upfront Fee Payment
Dates, if applicable) provided that, if an Event Determination Date occurs, the earlier
of the Termination Date and the first Settlement Date with respect to the Credit Event
to which such Event Determination Date relates, shall be the final Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date.

Where the Term of the CDS Transaction is an integer multiple of the Fixed Payment
Frequency period then Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall apply:
the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be each date falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period End Date,
starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the Effective
Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2. For example:

Start Date: 20 June 2003


End Date: 20 June 2008
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
In the above example Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall apply
because the Term is exactly 5 years which divides evenly into 3 month periods with
no remainder, and the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be the 20th day (the
Roll Day, see Section 3.3) of each month of March, June, September, and
December from, and including, 20 September 2003 to, and including, 20 June 2008.

If the terms of the above example were changed to either:


Start Date: 13 May 2003
End Date: 20 June 2008
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
or:

Start Date: 20 June 2003


End Date: 1 June 2008
Fixed Payment Frequency: 3m (3 months)
then Standard Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Periods shall not apply. In both cases,
the Term of the CDS Transaction is not an exact integer multiple of the Fixed
Payment Frequency period and, therefore, a Stub Period is deemed to exist.

For any CDS Transaction entered into MarkitWire, a Stub Period may only exist at
the beginning or the end of the CDS Transaction, but not both.

4.6.2 Determination of Stub Periods


A Stub Period exists if the Term of the CDS Transaction is not an integer multiple
of the Fixed Payment Frequency period. If the day of the month of the End Date
is different to the day of the month of the Start Date then a Stub Period will also
exist except where:

83

Annex 4
a) Month End Rolls (Section 3.3) have been selected and the Start Date falls on
or after the last Business Day of the month and the End Date is the last calendar
day of the month.

b) Month End Rolls have not been selected, but due to fewer days occurring in
the End Date month compared to the Start Date month, the day of the month of
the Start Date does not have a numerical equivalent in the End Date month but
the End Date is still the last calendar day of the month.

Any applicable Stub Period relevant to a CDS Transaction will be the first Fixed
Rate Payer Calculation Period at the start of the CDS Transaction when the value
in the Stub At field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Start.
Conversely, the Stub Period will be the last Fixed Rate Payer Calculation Period
at the end of the CDS Transaction when the value in the Stub At field is End.

IF THE STUB PERIOD IS AT START OF THE CDS TRANSACTION

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Short:

The Stub Period will be short when the MarkitWire system determines that a Stub
Period is applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main
Template page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the
Stub Type field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Short. In
this case:

Subtract multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period from the End Date
until subtracting one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a
date earlier than the Effective Date and this will identify the end date of the Stub
Period (the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date). The end date of
the Stub Period is displayed in the First Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date field on
the Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the Start of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Short, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(iii) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Scheduled Termination Date without, for the purpose of determining the
calendar number of the Scheduled Termination Date, having regard to any
Business Day Convention applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section
3.3), falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed
Rate Payer Period End Date, starting on the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2;

(iv) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting the month of the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2.

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Long:

The Stub Period will be long when the MarkitWire system determines that a Stub
Period is applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main
Template page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the

84

Annex 4
Stub Type field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Long. In
this case:

Subtract multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period from the End Date
until subtracting one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a
date earlier than the Start Date and then add one Fixed Payment Frequency
period to ascertain the end date of the Stub Period (the First Regular Fixed
Rate Payer Payment Date). The end date of the Stub Period is displayed in the
First Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments Template
page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the Start of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Long, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(iii) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Scheduled Termination Date without, for the purpose of determining the
calendar number of the Scheduled Termination Date, having regard to any
Business Day Convention applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section
3.3), falling one Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed
Rate Payer Period End Date, starting on the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer
Payment Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2;

(iv) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting the month of the First Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date and ending in accordance with Section 4.4.2.

IF THE STUB PERIOD IS AT END OF THE CDS TRANSACTION

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Short:

The Stub Period will be short when the system determines that a Stub Period is
applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main Template
page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the Stub Type
field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Short. In this case:

Add multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency period to the Effective Date until
adding one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a date later
than the End Date and this will identify the start date of the Stub Period (the Last
Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date). The start date of the Stub Period is
displayed in the Last Regular Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments
Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the End of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Short, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(vii) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Effective Date without, for the purpose of determining the calendar number
of the Effective Date, having regard to any Business Day Convention
applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section 3.3), falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency

85

Annex 4
period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular Fixed Rate
Payer Payment Date;

(viii) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Date, starting the month of the date falling one Fixed Payment
Frequency period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular
Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date;

(ix) and (whether or not Month End Rolls is selected), the Scheduled
Termination Date;

unless an Event Determination Date occurs in which case the last Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date shall be such Event Determination Date.

To ascertain the Stub Period when it is Long:

The Stub Period will be long when the system determines that a Stub Period is
applicable (indicated by the Fixed Payment Stub Indicator on the Main Template
page (Section 3.1) displaying a value of Ticked) and the value in the Stub Type
field (see Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3)) is Long. In this case:

Add multiples of the Fixed Payment Frequency to the Effective Date until adding
one more Fixed Payment Frequency period would result in a date later than the
End Date and then subtract one Fixed Payment Frequency period to ascertain
the start date of the Stub Period (the Last Regular Fixed Rate Payer Payment
Date). The start date of the Stub Period is displayed in the Last Regular
Payment Date field on the Fixed Payments Template page (Section 3.3).

If the Stub Period is at the End of a CDS Transaction and the Stub Period is
Long, the Fixed Rate Payer Period End Dates shall be:

(x) the dates (bearing the same calendar number (the Roll Day) as the
Effective Date without, for the purpose of determining the calendar number
of the Effective Date, having regard to any Business Day Convention
applicable to the CDS Transaction - see Section 3.3), falling one Fixed
Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer Period
End Date, starting on the date falling one Fixed Payment Frequency
period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular Fixed Rate
Payer Payment Date;

(xi) unless Month End Rolls is selected in which case the Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Dates shall be the last calendar day of each month falling one
Fixed Payment Frequency period after the previous Fixed Rate Payer
Period End Date, starting the month of the date falling one Fixed Payment
Frequency period after the Effective Date and ending on the Last Regular
Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date;

(xii) and (whether or not Month End Rolls is selected), the Scheduled
Termination Date;

unless an Event Determination Date occurs in which case the last Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date shall be such Event Determination Date.

86

Annex 4
If, as a result of the application of provisions set out in this Annex, the Fixed Rate
Payer Period End Date which is calculated does not exist (i.e. the Roll Day is
expressed to have a greater numerical value than that of the last day of the
relevant calendar month), that Fixed Rate Payer Period End Date shall be
deemed to be the last calendar day of the month in question.

All Fixed Rate Payer Payment Dates shall be adjusted in accordance with the
Business Centres and Business Day Conventions applicable to the CDS
Transaction (see Section 3.2).

4.7 Cancellations
Parties can agree to cancel a Transaction entered into MarkitWire as set out in the
Cancellation Fee Template page (MarkitWire Provisions Section 5.2).

For the purposes of MarkitWire the date on which the parties agree to end their
obligations under the Transaction is the Cancellation Effective Date and is
specified in the Cancellation Effective field on the Cancellation Template page
(MarkitWire Provisions Section 5.2). Any Cancellation Fee due in respect of such
cancellation will be paid on the Date as stated on the Cancellation Fee Template
page (MarkitWire Provisions Section 5.2). If the parties select Manual Confirmation
as applying to the cancellation of a Transaction, the parties agree that a manual
Confirmation needs to be created and executed in respect of the cancellation.

Unless the parties agree otherwise, for example in the case of a novation, the
cancelled Transaction shall be terminated and cancelled with effect from and
including the Cancellation Effective Date and all rights, duties, claims and obligations
of the parties there under shall be released and discharged with effect from and
including the Cancellation Effective Date without prejudice to any rights, duties,
claims and obligations which arose prior to and on the Cancellation Effective Date.
The parties shall still be liable to make any payments that are due and payable under
the Transaction on the relevant Cancellation Effective Date. In addition, the date
and method of payments due, where applicable, between the Cancellation Effective
Date and the Date that the Cancellation Fee is due to be paid on shall be subject to
negotiation between the parties. The parties shall also be liable for any Cancellation
Fee that is due and payable on such Date.

4.8 Amendments
Parties can agree to amend a Transaction entered into MarkitWire. The date on
which they agree to amend their rights and obligations on the Transaction is the
Amendment Effective Date which is specified in the Amendment Effective field on
the Additional Template page (MarkitWire Provisions Section 5.1). Any additional
payments due in respect of such amendment shall be made on the Date relevant to
that additional payment stated on the Additional Payment Template page
(MarkitWire Provisions Section 5.1).

The amended Transaction shall be amended with effect from and including the
Amendment Effective Date and all rights, duties, claims and obligations of the parties
thereunder shall be amended with effect from and including the Amendment
Effective Date without prejudice to any rights, duties, claims and obligations, which
arose prior to and on the Amendment Effective Date.

87

Annex 4
The parties will still be liable to make any payments that are due and payable under
the Transaction up to and including the relevant Amendment Effective Date pursuant
to the terms of the Transaction prior to the amendment. The parties shall also be
liable to make any payments under the Transaction that are due and payable after
the relevant Amendment Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the amended
Transaction and liable for any additional payment that is due and payable as a result
of the amendment.

4.8.1 Legal Entity Amendments


During the amendment process parties will be able, subject to bilateral
agreement, to amend both their own legal entity and the legal entity of the other
party to the Transaction, in the event that one or other of the legal entities had
been incorrectly selected. In each case the list of available legal entities will be
restricted to the relevant legal entities for that User. Unless explicitly agreed
otherwise between the parties, legal entity changes for the purposes of
MarkitWire will be regarded as amendments, not novations or assignments.
Following any such amendment, the original details of the Transaction will be
superseded and replaced in all respects by the revised Transaction details.

4.9 Exits

Parties can agree to indicate in the MarkitWire system their intention to terminate or
modify the terms of a Transaction outside of the MarkitWire system. This intention is
identified through the use of the Contract State (See Section 3.1 Main Contract
State) of Exit. The indication of any such mutual intent will be recorded on the
MarkitWire system but by itself such indication will have no effect on the legal status
of the Trade Affirmation.

4.10 Introducing Broker Relationship


Within the MarkitWire system, it is possible to capture and reflect an introducing
broker relationship between the legal entities within a bank.

Each party is able to insert their own wording to reflect the legal entity that is bound
to the Transaction and the legal entity that is acting as introducing broker. Where an
introducing broker relationship has been defined within the system, that party to the
Transaction is represented in accordance with the wording entered by the relevant
party. For example:

Legal Entity A (introduced by Legal Entity B acting as agent).

In this case, Legal Entity A is the legal entity that is bound to the Transaction and
Legal Entity B is the legal entity that is acting as introducing broker. In this regard
Legal Entity A has authorized Legal Entity B, inter alia, to negotiate and enter into
Transactions on its behalf, and additionally to issue and receive, on its behalf,
affirmations in respect of such Transactions.

Additionally, Legal Entity A understands, acknowledges and agrees that such


Transactions shall be entered into in the name of Legal Entity A and for its account

88

Annex 4
and risk, to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if Legal Entity A
had entered into such Transactions directly.

In respect of certain Screen Terms for CDS Transactions the default values are dependent on the Currency selected to apply to the
CDS Transaction. It is the responsibility of the User to ensure that the values contained within each field on each Template page
are consistent with the authorised employees intentions with respect to the CDS transaction. The Transaction Currency determines
the population of the default values for the Screen Terms on each Template page as set out, for information purposes only, in the
following table unless an explicit regional default is defined in Section 8.2 which would otherwise take precedence:

Annex 4
6.2 Regional Default Values
In respect of certain Screen Terms for CDS Transactions the default values are dependent on the selection of either the
Contractual Definitions selected to apply to the CDS Transaction or the geographical region or entity type applicable to the
Reference Entity of the CDS Transaction.

Having selected a Reference Entity (RE) (without a Reference Obligation (RO)) or Reference Entity/Reference Obligation
(RE/RO) pair, the Currency and Docs fields on the Compose New Deal screen are defaulted based on this selection. Specifically,
the Currency and Docs fields are populated based on the Region of the Reference Entity. The Defs field will default to 2003 ISDA
Credit.

The Tenor field is defaulted to the value 5Y. This value can be changed by the authorised employee making a selection from a
drop down list of choices.

Note that the values for Currency, Docs and Defs on the Compose New Deal screen can be overwritten by the authorised
employee. Typically:

The Defs field will default to 2003 ISDA Credit however the authorised employee can select 1999 ISDA Credit if required;
The Docs field will default to a value determined from the combined values of the Reference Entity Type and Region
associated with the Reference Entity within the approved data source from which the Reference Entity was derived. The
authorised employee is able to select an alternative value should this be appropriate to the CDS Transaction; and
The Currency field will default to a value determined by the Reference Entity Type and the Reference Entity Region associated
with the Reference Entity within the approved data source from which the Reference Entity was derived. The authorised
employee is able to select an alternative value should this be appropriate to the CDS Transaction.
The values for Currency, Docs and Defs on the Compose New Deal screen determine the population of the default values for the
Screen Terms on each Template page as set out in this Schedule.

Where the authorised employee elects to change the value of any of the Currency, Docs and Defs fields on the Compose New Deal
screen, MarkitWire will not prevent such action nor in any way validate whether such action is appropriate. It is the responsibility of
the User to ensure that the values contained within each field on each Template page are consistent with the authorised
employees intentions with respect to the relevant CDS transaction.

This schedule sets out these default values for information purposes only.
