                                          positive "Net Market Quotation" (as
                                          defined below) exceeds USD 0.00. A
                                          positive Net Market Quotation shall

                                          negative) for all Transactions between
                                          the parties assuming all such

                                          Quotation will be determined by MLCS
                                          using its mid-market estimates of the
                                          amounts that would be paid for
                                          Replacement Transactions (as such term
