  9. Early Termination Principle - IPRS • As the IPRS transaction is settled via 2 sets of asset purchase and asset sales agreement (one for fixed leg, and one for current leg), any early termination would render future agreements non-applicable. • Since future asset purchase / asset sale agreement are not performed, is there any loss ? Hence any marked to market settlement ? • The commitment to enter into future asset purchase and asset sale agreement is evidenced in the Trade Confirmation Agreement, which is legally binding and obliging. • Settlement Amount is seen as the payment to be exchange for the release of obligation to continue to perform the committed future asset purchase and asset sale agreement.

  10. Early Termination Principle - IPRS • Calculation Method • Similar to conventional IRS fair valuation • Present value of all future cash flows (fixed leg) and projected cash flows (floating leg) • The amount of NPV is set as the settlement amount for both party to be released from future obligations of the IPRS as agreed in the Trade Confirmation Agreement. • Settlement Amount • As agreed between the 2 counterparties • Market Quotation method from panel of Cash Settlement Reference Banks
