Physical Commodity Transaction” means any transaction (including an agreement with respect thereto) now existing or hereafter entered into between one party to this Agreement (or any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party) and the other party to this Agreement (or any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party) which is a transaction for purchasing (or repurchasing), selling (or reselling) or delivering one or more commodities, whether on a spot basis or for future delivery, or for borrowing, lending, transporting or storing one or more commodities.

For the purposes hereof, “Financial Market Transactions” means any transaction of a type specified in the definition of Specified Transaction which is entered into between a party hereto and any other entity, and for the purposes of testing against the Threshold Amount, the “aggregate principal amount” thereof shall be deemed to be a reference to the mark-to-market value of that Financial Market Transaction (or, if any actual amount is due as a result of the termination or close-out of that Financial Market Transaction, that amount).

(ii)

In addition to the provisions of Section 6(e)(iii), if an Early Termination Date occurs under Section 6(a) as the result of Automatic Early Termination, and if the Non-defaulting Party determines that it either sustained or incurred a loss or damage or benefited from a gain in respect of any Transaction, as a result of any change in one or more rates, prices, yields, quotations, volatilities, spreads or other measures of economic value or risk relevant to that Transaction or to any related hedge of the Non-defaulting Party between that Early Termination Date and the date upon which the Non-defaulting Party first becomes aware of the occurrence of that Early Termination Date, then the Termination Currency Equivalent of the amount of such loss or damage shall be added to the amount due by the Defaulting Party or deducted from the amount due by the Non-defaulting Party, as the case may be (in both cases pursuant to Section 6(e)(i)), or the Termination Currency Equivalent of the amount of such gain shall be deducted from the amount due by the Defaulting Party or added to the amount due by the Non-defaulting Party, as the case may be (in both cases pursuant to Section 6(e)(i)).
