party shall I have any further obligation to the other party in respect
of the relevant Currency Option Transactions or, as the case may be,
parts thereof so terminated and discharged. In the case of a partial
termination and discharge (i.e., where the relevant Currency Option
Transactions are for different amounts of the Currency Pair), the
remaining portion of the Currency Option Transaction which is partially
discharged and terminated shall continue to be a Currency Option
Transaction for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) With respect to any FX Transaction or Currency Option Transaction, the
Following provisions relating to Impossibility and Illegality shall
apply:
(1) ILLEGALITY WITH RESPECT TO FX TRANSACTIONS AND CURRENCY
OPTIONS. If an Illegality occurs and any Affected Transaction
is a FX Transaction or a Currency Option, then with respect to
such Transactions Section 6(b) of the Agreement shall not
apply and the provisions of this subsection (g) of Part 5 of
the Schedule shall apply in lieu thereof.
(2) IMPOSSIBILITY. "Impossibility" means, with respect to FX
Transactions and Currency Options, due to force majeure or act
of State a party is prevented from or hindered or delayed in
the delivery or receipt of any Currency in respect of a
Currency Obligation or Currency Option or it becomes or, in
the good faith judgment of one of the parties, may become
impossible due to the occurrence of a natural or man-
11
12
made disaster, calamity, emergency, crisis or other
circumstance beyond its control for a party to deliver or
receive any Currency which is the subject of a Currency
Obligation or Currency Option. The party for whom such
Performance has been prevented, hindered or delayed or has
become impossible shall be deemed to be an "Affected Party".
The FX Transactions and Currency Options affected by the
occurrence of an Impossibility shall be deemed to be "Affected
Transactions".
(3) DESIGNATION OF EARLY TERMINATION DATE. If an Impossibility or
an Illegality occurs and any Affected Transaction is a FX
Transaction or a Currency Option, then the Affected Party
shall promptly give notice thereof to the other party, and
subject to the provisions of subsection (c,)(6), either party
may, by notice to the other party, designate a day not earlier
than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination
Date with respect to such Affected Transactions.
(4) CALCULATION OF AMOUNT PAYABLE. For the purposes of subsection
(g)(3) above, the amount payable shall be determined by the
party which is not the Affected Party (or, if both parties are
Affected Parties, whichever party gave the relevant notice) in
accordance with Section 6(e)(ii) of the Agreement and
subsection (f) of this Part 6 of the Schedule as if there were
one Affected Party and the party performing the calculations
is not the Affected Party.
(5) NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. If an event or circumstance which would
otherwise constitute or give rise to an Event of Default also
constitutes an Impossibility, it will be treated as an
Impossibility and will not constitute an Event of Default.
(6) TRANSFER TO AVOID IMPOSSIBILITY OR ILLEGALITY. If an
Impossibility or Illegality occurs and any Affected
Transaction is an FX Transaction or Currency Option, unless
prohibited by law, the Affected Party shall, as a condition to
its right to designate an Early Termination Date with respect
to any Currency Obligation or Option, use all reasonable
efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss,
excluding immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer as soon
as practicable, and in any event before the earlier to occur
of the expiration date of the affected Currency Obligations or
Options or twenty (20) days after it gives notice under
subsection (g)(3) of this Part 6 of the Schedule all its
rights and obligations under the Agreement in respect of the
affected Currency Obligations and Options to another of its
Offices so that such Impossibility or Illegality ceases to
exist. Any transfer will be subject to the prior written
consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld
if such other party's policies in effect at such time would
permit it to enter into transaction with the transferee Office
on the terms proposed, unless such transfer would cause the
other party to incur a material tax or other cost.
