The Transferor and the Remaining Party have entered into one or more Transactions (each an “Old Transaction”), each evidenced by a Confirmation (an “Old Confirmation”) attached hereto as Exhibit I and subject to a 1992 ISDA Master Agreement dated as of July 3, 2003 (the “Old Agreement”).
The Remaining Party and the Transferee are simultaneously entering into a 1992 ISDA Master Agreement dated as of the date hereof in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the “New Agreement”).
With effect from and including February 22, 2005 (the “Novation Date”) the Transferor wishes to transfer by novation to the Transferee, and the Transferee wishes to accept the transfer by novation of, all the rights, liabilities, duties and obligations of the Transferor under and in respect of each Old Transaction, with the exception of the Excluded Rights and Obligations referred to below, with the effect that the Remaining Party and the Transferee enter into a new transaction (each a “New Transaction”) between them having terms identical to those of each Old Transaction, subject to the same exceptions and as more particularly described below.
The Remaining Party wishes to accept the Transferee as its sole counterparty with respect to the New Transactions.
The Transferor and the Remaining Party wish to have released and discharged, as a result and to the extent of the transfer described above, their respective obligations under and in respect of the Old Transactions.
Accordingly, the parties agree as follows: —
| 1. | Definitions. |
Terms defined in the ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency-Cross Border) as published in 1992 by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (the “1992 ISDA Master Agreement”) are used herein as so defined, unless otherwise provided herein. For purposes of this Novation Agreement, “Excluded Rights and Obligations” means all obligations of each of the Transferor and the Remaining Party to Transfer (as defined in the Credit Support Annex to the Old Agreement) Eligible Collateral (as so defined) in respect of the Old Transactions and all related rights of the Remaining Party and the Transferor under the Old Agreement.
| 2. | Transfer, Release, Discharge and Undertakings. |
Subject to the execution and delivery of the New Agreement by each of the parties thereto to the other, with effect from and including the Novation Date and in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Novation Agreement and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each of the parties):
| (a) | subject to Section 2(d) of this Novation Agreement, the Remaining Party and the Transferor are each released and discharged from further obligations to each other with respect to each Old Transaction and their respective rights against each other thereunder are cancelled, provided that such release and discharge shall not affect any rights, liabilities or obligations of the Remaining Party or the Transferor with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed prior to the Novation Date, and all such payments and obligations shall be paid or performed by the Remaining Party or the Transferor in accordance with the terms of the Old Transaction; |
| (b) | in respect of each New Transaction, the Remaining Party and the Transferee each undertake liabilities and obligations towards the other and acquire rights against each other identical in their terms to each corresponding Old Transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, as if the Transferee were the Transferor and with the Remaining Party remaining the Remaining Party, save for the Excluded Rights and Obligations and any other rights, liabilities or obligations of the Remaining Party or the Transferor with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed prior to the Novation Date); |
| (c) | each New Transaction shall be governed by, form part of, and be subject to the New Agreement and the relevant Old Confirmation (which, in conjunction and as deemed modified to be consistent with this Novation Agreement, shall be deemed to be a Confirmation between the Remaining Party and the Transferee), and the offices of the Remaining Party and the Transferee for purposes of each New Transaction shall be their offices at their addresses for notices provided for in the New Agreement; and |
| (d) | on the Novation Date, the Remaining Party shall transfer all of the Posted Collateral (as defined in the Credit Support Annex to the Old Agreement) held by it in respect of the Old Transactions to the account or accounts of the Transferor identified by it by notice given to the Remaining Party as provided in the Old Agreement, and the Transferor shall transfer all Posted Collateral held by it in respect of the Old Transactions to the account or accounts of the Remaining Party identified by it by notice given to the Transferor as provided in the Old Agreement, in each case together with all Interest Amount and Distributions thereon (as so defined). The Remaining Party’s or the Transferor’s failure to effect these transfers will continue to constitute Potential Events of Default and may constitute Events of Default under the Old Agreement notwithstanding the transfer by novation contemplated herein. |
| 3. | Representations and Warranties. |
| (a) | On the date of this Novation Agreement: |
| (i) | Each of the parties makes to each of the other parties those representations and warranties set forth in Section 3(a) of the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement with references in such Section to “this Agreement” or “any Credit Support Document” being deemed references to this Novation Agreement alone. |
