Attached is a redraft of the three proposed points for inclusion in each of
financial and physical power confirms. Please review and advise of any
further comments or thoughts.

It is my understanding that it has been decided that Canada wants to negate
Market Disruption concepts on the basis of changes to EUA or Pool rules. I
have also negated force majeure claims on the same basis (typically not apt
in financial--however, since it could be argued I added it in the financial
confirm language as well). Question: Would we also want to add "any other
excuse of performance" to this concept? Such language would afford a broader
sweep in respect of various claims, however, (i) the sweep may be too broad
in light of it covering any change in the EUA or Pool rules and (ii)
ultimately, we may want some flexibility to argue other points. Advise.

Under Performance Suspension the intent is to carve out the "trade" for
suspension, while leaving the other aspects of the masters/gtcs in place,
such as bankruptcy and other termination events.
