Exposure. The Parties agree that in the event of a Ratings Event relating to an action taken by S&P, the Valuation Agent shall internally verify its calculation of the Secured Party’s Exposure by reporting its calculation thereof on a weekly basis.

Furthermore, the Exposure valuations should reflect the higher of two bids from Reference Market-makers that would be eligible and willing to provide the market quotation in the absence of the current provider. The collateral requirement should be based on the greater of the internal and external verifications. In the event the verification procedures set forth above indicate that there is a deficiency in the amount of Eligible Collateral that has been posted to the Secured Party, the Pledgor shall post the amount of Eligible Collateral necessary to cure such deficiency to the Secured Party within three Local Business Days.
