I am working on creating a Master ISDA Agreement with HQ Energy Services
(U.S.) Inc., to be guaranteed by Hydro Quebec. In my work on this file,
Hydro provided us with a form previously executed on the physical side and
they also propose to reissue a guaranty to cover both physical and financial
matters in an aggregate amount. Question, our Quebec counsel advised that
the guaranty, if executed in Quebec, would have to also be in French pursuant
to the statutue regarding government papers etc. I noticed that the prior
guaranty seems only to be in English with no French, and also note that it
states that it is governed by NY law. Do you think if it is governed by NY
law that the actual papering in French requirement does not then apply ot
Hydro Quebec as a government entity? Interesting. Please let me hear from
both of you. Thanks. Mary
