This form of agreement may be used by two parties to amend the minimum transfer amounts (“MTAs”) that are produced when parties use the Protocol plus applicable supplements to produce a New CSA that provides for either “gross/gross” or “gross/net” margining. The New CSA produced by the Protocol in this scenario includes two separate delivery/return amounts rather than the single delivery/return amount that normally applies. Under this scenario, the Protocol splits the MTA selected by the parties through matched Questionnaires and allocates 50% of the originally selected MTA to each delivery/return amount as a “gross MTA” or “net MTA”. This agreement allows the parties to replace that approach by defining a “gross MTA” or “net MTA” to equal the full amount of the originally selected MTA (or insert a different amount).
