Article 5

Valuation principle for early termination amount

1.   The valuer shall determine the value of liabilities arising from derivative contracts as an early termination amount calculated as the sum of the following amounts:

(a)

unpaid amounts, collateral or other amounts due from the institution under resolution to the counterparty, less unpaid amounts, collateral and other amounts due from the counterparty to the institution under resolution on the close-out date;

(b)

a close-out amount covering the amount of losses or costs incurred by derivative counterparties, or gains realised by them, by replacing or obtaining the economic equivalent of material terms of the terminated contracts and the option rights of the parties in respect of those contracts.

2.   For purposes of paragraph 1, unpaid amounts means, in respect of closed-out derivative contracts, the sum of the following:

(a)

amounts that became payable on or prior to the close-out date and which remain unpaid on that date;

(b)

an amount equal to the fair market value of the asset which was required to be delivered for each obligation of the derivative contracts which was required to be settled by delivery on or prior to the close-out date and which has not been settled as at the close-out date;

(c)

amounts in respect of interest or compensation accrued during the period from the date on which relevant payment or delivery obligations fell due through to the close-out date.
