Given they are a muni, I am fine with this exception.  In practice, we have 
experienced situations with certain cp's where we have had to come up with 
certain margining exceptions.

WRT amendments, such amendments can be done within the same time period as 
well.  I think that we could add that the cp is required to provide a 
representation (perhaps an officer's certificate of some sort) stating that 
they are going to their Board for posting of the collateral.

We got that provision from another municipality.

Are you sure that you are okay with extending the time to deliver collateral 
from 3 Business Days to 10 Business Days?  I have never seen us agree to that 
long of a time period?  What if Exposures change from the time that we 
request collateral and the time that they deliver it to us?  If all they are 
doing is posting cash or amending an LC, why would they need 10 Business 
Days?  Please call me.
