days do not wholly fall within the respective calculation period.
Identifies a commodity business day calendar from
which the pricing dates will be determined.
Used in conjunction with an exchange-based pricing
source. Identifies a date source calendar from which the pricing dates and thus
roll to the next contract will be based off (e.g. pricing is based on the NYMEX
WTI First Nearby Futures Contract, if “Future” is chosen, the pricing will roll
to the next futures contract on expiration, if “ListedOption” is chosen, the
pricing will roll to the next futures contract on the Option expiration date
which is three business days before the expiration of the NYMEX WTI futures
contract.) Omitting this element will result in the default behavior expected

expressed in variance units. Payments on the variance leg are equal to the national
amount multiplied by the realized variance minus this variance strike price:
notional amount * (realized variance - variance strike price).
Specifies the volatility strike price when this strike
is expressed in standard deviation units. Payments on the variance leg are equal to
the national amount multiplied by the realized volatility squared minus the
volatility strike price squared. Notional amount * (realized volatility^2 -
volatility strike^2). Squaring the volatility strike price converts the volatility
strike price into a variance strike price. Squaring the realized volatility converts
realized volatility to realized variance.
Specifies, in relation to each Payment Date, the variance
percentage which, when multiplied times the notional amount is the amount to which the
Payment Date relates. For purposes of this representation the realized variance is:

where: ln is the natural logarithm, N is the number of pricing dates, S sub i is the
relevant price on the observation date i. If nAdjustment is 'true' then the denominator
of the annualization factor is (N - 1) rather than N. If realized volatility is the
performance metric in a variance swap rather than realized variance then the square root
of the formula above will appear in the confirmation.
Describes which dates are valid dates on which to observe a price
or index level.

definitions and terms for a number of types of weather indices. These indices include: HDD (heating
degree days), CDD (cooling degree days), CPD (critical precipitation days). Weather Index Swap
transactions result in a cash flow to one of the two counterparties each Calculation Period depending on
the relationship between the Settlement Level and the Weather Index Level. A Weather Index swap
transaction always consists of a commodity swap element as a parent to two weatherLeg elements.

An absolute representation of the Calculation Period start
dates of the Commodity Option Transaction.
The different options for specifying the Calculation Periods.
The Calculation Period dates for this leg of the trade where the
Calculation Periods are all one day long. Only dates explicitly included determine the
Calculation Periods and there is a Calculation Period for each date specified. As such one-day
Calculation Period are typical a physically-settled emissions or metals trades it is expected
that this element will not be used in performance swaps.
The Calculation Period start dates for this leg of the swap. This
type is only intended to be used if the Calculation Periods differ on each leg. If Calculation
Periods mirror another leg, then the calculationPeriodsReference element should be used to point
to the Calculation Periods on that leg - or the calculationPeriodsScheduleReference can be used
to point to the Calculation Periods Schedule for that leg.
The Calculation Periods for this leg of the swap. This type is only
intended to be used if the Calculation Periods differ on each leg. If Calculation Periods mirror

point to the Calculation Periods Schedule for that leg.

the relationship between the Settlement Level and the Weather Index Level. A Weather Index
swap transaction always consists of a commodity swap element as a parent to two weatherLeg
elements.
