Submission Process:

Please fill in the items required in the Confirmation (selection of the applicable choice under Paragraph 1 thereof and your contact details in the Exhibit thereto) and your name, address and the name and the title of the person authorized to issue the Confirmation.  The Confirmation should be prepared by using your letterhead except where there are circumstances under which you are not able to use your letterhead.  The following must be submitted via email to ISDA in order to validate delivery of your confirmation:

a)  One signed copy of the filled out Confirmation (please put the seal or signature of the authorized signatory)

b)  One conformed copy of the filled out Confirmation (a conformed copy is an exact copy of the signed letter except that the name of the person who signed the letter is typed on the letter instead of using a seal or having it physically signed)

ISDA will only accept email delivery of Confirmations.  You are not required to send original Confirmations to the ISDA offices.

Please submit your confirmations to JapanFIEA@isda.org (a dedicated email address).  It is critical that both a scanned, signed Confirmation, as well as a scanned, conformed Confirmation is submitted.  Your confirmation will not be displayed on the ISDA website until both are received.
