Settlement Price (EDSP) 
Based on EONIA (Euro OverNight Index Average) as calculated by the ECB and published by Reuters in respect of each business day, the EDSP Rate represents the effective rate of interest achieved by reinvesting at Eonia® for each day of the accrual period of the contract. The following formula shall be applied:
EDSP Rate=  
where:
Ei  =  Eonia® fixing on the ith day of the accrual period (if the First or Last Eonia® Accrual Day is not a London business day, the previous available Eonia® fixing is used)
di  =  the number of days that the value Ei is applied (for the First or Last Eonia® Accrual day this is not necessarily the number of days for which the relevant Eonia® fixing was valid
x  =  the number of Eonia® fixings used in the accrual period, including the rate applied to the first calendar day of the accrual period where such calendar day is not a business day
N  =  the total number of days for which the x fixings are applied. i.e. the number of calendar days in the accrual period

Where the EDSP Rate is not an exact multiple of 0.001, it will be rounded to the nearest 0.001, or where the EDSP Rate is an exact uneven multiple of 0.0005, to the nearest lower 0.001

The EDSP shall be determined as 100 minus the EDSP Rate, rounded as described above

1 The value of the minimum price movement stated above is based on a standardised half-basis point value so that, for hedging purposes a calculation will need to be made in relation to the hedge ratio to take into account any mismatch between the standardised half-basis point value and the actual half-basis point value of the position being hedged determined by the actual number of days in the accrual period.
