			exist. Party A will post Eligible Collateral on or prior to the 20th day following a Moody’s Second Rating Trigger Requirement.

	(i)		“Valuation Agent” means Party A; provided, however, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to which Party A is the Defaulting Party, Party B shall have the right to designate as Valuation Agent an independent party, reasonably acceptable to Party A, the cost for which shall be borne by Party A. All calculations by the Valuation Agent must be made in accordance with standard market practice, including, in the event of a dispute as to the Value of any Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support, by making reference to quotations received by the Valuaton Agent from one or more pricing sources.

	(iii)		“Valuation Time” means:

	o		the close of business in the city of the Valuation Agent on the Valuation Date or date of calculation, as applicable;

(v) Notwithstanding the definition of Valuation Agent and Valuation Date, at any time while the long-term unsecured debt or counterparty rating of Party A’s Credit Support Provider is not above “BBB”, the calculations of Exposure and the Value of any Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support must be verified by an external mark monthly. The external mark must be obtained by an independent third party, and cannot be verified by the same entity more than four times in any 12-month period. In addition, the external mark-to-market valuations should reflect the higher of two bids from counterparties that would be eligible and willing to provide the swap in the absence of the current provider. The Value of any Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support and Exposure should be based on the greater of the calculations of the Valuation Agent and the external marks, and any deficiencies in Value and Exposure must be cured within three days.

At any time at which Party A (or, to the extent applicable, its Credit Support Provider) does not have a long-term unsubordinated and unsecured debt rating of at least “BBB+” from S&P, the Valuation Agent shall provide to S&P not later than the Notification Time on the Local Business Day following each Valuation Date its calculations of the Secured Party’s Exposure and the S&P Value of any Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support for that Valuation Date.

	(ii)		Use of Posted Collateral. The provisions of Paragraph 6(c) will not apply to Secured Party and without prejudice to Secured Party’s rights under Paragraph 8
