Index Performance Rate definition

Index Performance Rate means, for any Segment, the percentage change in the value of the related Index from the Segment Start Date to the Segment Maturity Date. This calculation, called the point-to-point method, compares the change in the Index between two discrete points in time, namely the Segment Start Date and the Segment Maturity Date. The Index Performance Rate may be positive or negative.
