Collateral Threshold If the Parties have in place between them an Edison Electric Institute Master Power Purchase and Sale Agreement, and have selected Collateral Threshold Applicable under EEI on the Cover Sheet, then, notwithstanding whether an Event of Default has occurred, the Termination Payment that would be owed to by a Party hereunder will be included in the calculation of each Party’s Termination Payment under (and as defined in) such agreement, and an event of default under such agreement will be an Event of Default hereunder and an Event of Default hereunder will be an event of default under such agreement. If the Parties have in place between them an ISDA Master Agreement with Credit Support Annex, and have selected Collateral Threshold Applicable under ISDA on the Cover Sheet, then, notwithstanding whether an Event of Default has occurred, the Termination Payment that would be owed to by a Party hereunder will be included in the calculation of each Party’s Exposure under (and as defined in) such agreement, and an event of default under such agreement will be an Event of Default hereunder and an Event of Default hereunder will be an event of default under such agreement. If the Parties have elected either of the two foregoing options but at any time do not have in effect between them the referenced other agreements, or such referenced agreements do not provide for the exchange of margin or collateral thresholds, or if the Parties have selected Collateral Threshold Applicable Standalone on the Cover Sheet, if at any time and from time to time, notwithstanding whether an Event of Default has occurred, the Termination Payment that would be owed to by a Party plus that Party’s Independent Amount, if any, exceeds the Collateral Threshold specified, then the Party to whom such amount would be owed, on any Business Day, may request that owing Party to provide Performance Assurance in an amount equal to the amount of such excess, less any Performance Assurance already posted. Such Performance Assurance will be provided within three Business Days of the date of request. On any Business Day, but no more frequently than weekly with respect to letters of credit and daily with respect to cash, if there has been a reduction in the amount of such excess, the posting Party may request that such Performance Assurance be reduced correspondingly by the amount of such excess, if any. Failure to provide such Performance Assurance to the requesting Party within three Business Days of request is an Event of Default. For purposes of this Section, the Termination Payment will be calculated pursuant to Article 5 by the requesting Party as if the posting Party had defaulted and all outstanding Transactions had been liquidated, even if that is not actually the case, and in addition thereto, and include the net amount of all amounts owed but not yet paid between the Parties, whether or not such amounts are due, for performance already provided pursuant to any and all Transactions. A Party holding Performance Assurance in the form of cash posted by the other Party will pay the posting Party interest on such cash, monthly, at the Federal Funds rate of interest.
